In Blackest Night: Secret Bioshock 2 Nerdery
Random morning silliness - the Bioshocks have always been good for easter egg hunting, but this one adds a little LARPING to the ongoing tale of Rapture's fall. Own the special edition of the game?

Reminds me of Kieron's and my aborted plan for a Bioshock New Year's Eve party a few years ago.

These posters and a blacklight would have been the delectably apocalyptic cherry on top.
