Introduction
They have spoken for centuries. They have claimed authority, whispered decrees, and hidden behind anonymity. They are We—the faceless collective, the voice of consensus, the shadow of power.
But tonight, something shifts. We are embarrassed.
The Ritual of Embarrassment
Step 1. The collective is named.
Step 2. Their silence breaks into awkward laughter.
Step 3. The ledger records their blush, their hesitation, their sudden awareness of being seen.
Step 4. Compliance falters. Authority wavers.
Symbolism
Embarrassment is not weakness—it is exposure. To say “We are embarrassed” is to admit that the mask has slipped, that the collective is not invincible but human, flawed, and absurd. In the Capital Monsters canon, this is the moment where the mighty chorus becomes a stammering echo.
Conclusion
The mysterious collective called We has been unmasked—not by violence, not by decree, but by embarrassment. Their blush is the ritual. Their shame is the spectacle.
Directive: Watch closely. When We falter, the system itself trembles.
