 | ||||
| | |||
| Nitku asks, "What are we playing?" | ||||
| DavidW says, "Divis Mortis" | ||||
| Gerynar arrives, full of neither funk nor fun. | DavidW says, "which I decided on half an hour ago. :)" | |||
| inky arrives, full of fun, but no funk. | ||||
| DavidW arrives, full of funk, but no fun. | ||||
| Nitku arrives, full of fun, but no funk. | inky says, "oh, I figured it was a tie-in with jayis" | |||
| DavidW says, "That's a mere lucky coincidence." | ||||
| Roger arrives, full of fun, but no funk. | DavidW says, "I haven't played Divis yet, which I think will help." | |||
| djfletch arrives, full of neither funk nor fun. | ||||
| jenrexrode arrives, full of fun, but no funk. | DavidW says, "Jacqueline sends her regrets, by the way. She has a new laptop or notepad or whatever it is, but she needed today for other things." | |||
| DavidW says, "I don't know much about today's game. I gather it takes place in a hospital, and 'mortis' suggests to my mind a horror sort of game." | ||||
| DavidW asks, "Anyway, who hasn't played this one? Other than me?" | ||||
| Roger says, "Not I" | ||||
| DavidW says, "hm. Well, I hope it's not just me in the driver's seat. I don't want to hog all the action." | ||||
| Nitku says, "Me neither, but I'm not sure if I can stay focused all the time" | ||||
| DavidW asks, "Anyway, no new faces today, so shall we just jump into it?" | ||||
| DavidW clears the save counter. | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "load divis" | ||||
Floyd | Welcome to the Cheap Glk Implementation, library version 0.9.0. Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | You let out a deep and painful moan as you slowly realize you are Floyd | awake on a cold, tiled surface. Judging by the ache in your head and Floyd | bones, you've been hit with a lead pipe and left to rot. You grope at Floyd | your head, but you can't feel anything, not through the thick rubber Floyd | gloves you're wearing at any rate. You flop over and moan again at Floyd | the bright lights coming from the ceiling. Your arm half-heartedly Floyd | gropes around for something, and finds the metal railing of a vinyl Floyd | bed. You use it to steady your balance as you pull yourself up. You Floyd | close your eyes to help yourself adjust. Floyd | Floyd | As your vision clears and your nausea subsides you are gifted with a Floyd | very acute headache. Feeling less groggy, a sudden realization of a Floyd | deep, debilitating hunger nearly doubles you over in pain. You can't Floyd | remember how on earth this happened to you, but then retrograde Floyd | amnesia is rather common in head trauma victims. You take time to Floyd | recover your senses, then assess the situation. Floyd | Floyd | Divis Mortis: an interactive survival game. Floyd | Floyd | by lynnea dally Floyd | Floyd | Radiation Chamber Floyd | You instantly recognize the special room of the hospital you are in; Floyd | after all you've been working here for years. You can see the Floyd | delicate instruments of radiation treatment neatly positioned, ready Floyd | to use. There is a worn green vinyl bed underneath the delicate Floyd | machinery. A quick glance around also finds you a smashed glass Floyd | paperweight on the ground, which you suspect is the cause of your Floyd | massive headache. Your hunger is probably just from being knocked out Floyd | for so long. You also notice an airtight, electronic sealed door with Floyd | a large button next to it. Floyd | Floyd | You can go south to the Control Room. Floyd | | ||||
| Ellison arrives, ready to play with the toys. | Roger says, "What I'm trying to say here is that the stuff is delicate." | |||
| DavidW asks (of Roger), "hm?" | ||||
| eladnarra arrives, ready to play with the toys. | ||||
| Trumgottist gets bored and wanders off to the Toyshop. | ||||
| Trumgottist arrives, ready to play with the toys. | ||||
| Gerynar says (to Floyd), "x paperweight" | ||||
Floyd | >You see the shattered remnants of what formerly appeared to be a Floyd | glass paperweight. Small chunks of glass lie in a heap upon the floor Floyd | None of them are large enough to cut anything. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "x me" | ||||
Floyd | >You look at yourself and find that you're wearing a large-pocketed, Floyd | long lab coat, with thick rubber gloves and white boots to match. Floyd | | ||||
| Gerynar says (to Floyd), "x pockets" | ||||
Floyd | >Deep white pockets, useful for carrying things. Inside you can see Floyd | nothing. Floyd | Floyd | Searching more closely, you actually find your small good-luck compass Floyd | in one of the pockets! It will certainly prevent you from getting Floyd | lost. Floyd | | Ellison says, "I played this one in the comp, but I didn't get very far and I'm still not sure whether I ran into a bug or just gave up in frustration too soon" | |||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "x compass" | ||||
Floyd | >A small bauble. As far as navigation goes, it's not too terribly Floyd | accurate but it can give you a general idea. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "x bed" | ||||
Floyd | >A semi-comfortable human-sized block of padding with a head pillow. Floyd | The padding is covered in vinyl for easy sanitation. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "x pillow" | ||||
Floyd | >Slightly thicker vinyl plush extending from the radiation bed in a Floyd | predictable rectangle shape. The radiation equipment seems to be Floyd | focusing on this spot. Floyd | | eladnarra asks, "what's the game~?" | |||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "x equipment" | ||||
Floyd | >A marvel of modern machinery and medicine, they offer hope to those Floyd | who have little. This device will kill off cancer in rather precise Floyd | locations with exposure to large amounts of radiation. Unfortunately, Floyd | it kills many others things in the process. It appears to be targeting Floyd | the head pillow of the radiation bed. Perhaps the last user had a Floyd | brain tumor. It looks functional. Floyd | | DavidW says, "Divis Mortis" | |||
| Ellison says, "Divis Mortis" | ||||
| eladnarra says, "aha~ I was curious about this one" | ||||
| jenrexrode says (to Floyd), "x button" | ||||
Floyd | >A large, round, inviting button. You just know it does something. Floyd | Probably something with the door it is right next to. Floyd | | DavidW says, "We've just started. You only missed the intro." | |||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "search bed" | ||||
Floyd | >There is nothing on the radiation bed. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "look under bed" | ||||
Floyd | >You find nothing of interest. Floyd | | DavidW says, "I suppose we can push the button." | |||
| eladnarra says, "cool. I got distracted by the end of rugby :D" | ||||
| jenrexrode says (to Floyd), "x door" | ||||
Floyd | >An electronic door, sealed tightly to keep out radiation. There is a Floyd | large exit button clearly labeled next to the door. You can only Floyd | assume this is in case a patient panics and tries to run out. The Floyd | airtight door is closed. Floyd | Floyd | You feel weak from hunger. Floyd | | Ellison says (to eladnarra), "basically, the PC just woke up in a hospital. think 28 Days Later." | |||
| Roger says (to floyd), "x me" | ||||
Floyd | >You look at yourself and find that you're wearing a large-pocketed, Floyd | long lab coat, with thick rubber gloves and white boots to match. Floyd | | Ellison says, "28 Stats Later" | |||
| eladnarra says, "heh" | ||||
| DavidW says, "I hope we don't die of hunger just because we're scoping everything out." | ||||
| eladnarra says, "that would suck" | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "read button" | ||||
Floyd | >A large, round, inviting button. You just know it does something. Floyd | Probably something with the door it is right next to. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "push it" | ||||
Floyd | >The airtight door slides open. Floyd | | Ellison says, "no, we will just be annoyed to death" | |||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "s" | ||||
Floyd | > Floyd | Radiation Controls Floyd | As expected, you see a computer control system. What you did not Floyd | expect is to see are two dead bodies. The first is a woman slumped in Floyd | the northeast corner with her head blown out. The other, a desiccated Floyd | and decaying male with a coat and badge lies frozen in a crawling Floyd | motion. Your neck hair prickles, your stomach churns and your mind Floyd | reels. "Zombie," your mind whispers, but you are having trouble Floyd | believing it. The stench of the dead fills the room. Floyd | Floyd | To your dismay, you see another locked door, this time with a Floyd | cardswipe next to it. Why can't doors just be always open? After Floyd | reflecting on it for a moment, you are quite glad that these doors are Floyd | here; the barrier probably saved you from... whatever is going on Floyd | outside. You probably owe your lives to these annoying doors. Floyd | Floyd | You can go north to the Radiation Chamber or south to the First Floor Floyd | Hall. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "take badge" | ||||
Floyd | >You fight back waves of nausea. You feel as though you've seen many Floyd | dead bodies in your life, but this one will give you nightmares, if Floyd | you're ever able to sleep again. You gently remove the security badge Floyd | from his blue lab coat as if the slightest touch might wake him. His Floyd | mottled and rotting skin does not stir. Floyd | Floyd | A sharp pain from your temples almost make you cry aloud. Floyd | Floyd | [Your score has just gone up by four points.] Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "x controls" | ||||
Floyd | >A series of buttons and sliders that adjust the strength and location Floyd | of the machine. There is a large, conveniently labeled "start" Floyd | button. You can also make out instruments adjusting the angle and Floyd | intensity, but you don't want to mess with the direction or intensity Floyd | buttons. There is an emergency seal button in the very top corner. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "x woman" | ||||
Floyd | >She is a middle aged, slightly heavy woman. The name tag on her shirt Floyd | identifies her as Madelyn Grea, a senior technician. She has been shot Floyd | through the jaw, and there is a vast quantity of blood staining her Floyd | shirt and pooled on the ground around her. There is a handgun in her Floyd | right hand and cartridges surrounding her. With your amateur detective Floyd | skills, you deduce that she killed the attacking man and then took her Floyd | own life. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "take gun" | ||||
Floyd | >The dead woman's fingers are gripping the gun tightly. With a shudder Floyd | of distaste, you realize you'll have to open her hand first. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "open her hand" | ||||
Floyd | >The gun clatters from her nerveless fingers to the floor. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "take gun" | ||||
Floyd | >Taken. Floyd | Floyd | A nice slab of steak sounds perfect right now. Floyd | Floyd | You pause a moment, as your pain makes it difficult to concentrate. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "take cartridges" | ||||
Floyd | >You don't want spent bullets. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "x gun" | ||||
Floyd | >A standard 9mm handgun, as far as you can tell. The etchings Floyd | indicate that it is a Glock 17, but you're not sure what that means. Floyd | The chamber is empty. Floyd | | Roger says, "microwave corpse in giant radiation machine" | |||
| Ellison says, "set to 'popcorn'" | ||||
| DavidW says, "well, that occured to me, but I don't see the point yet." | ||||
| Roger says (to floyd), "take name tag" | ||||
Floyd | >You wouldn't impersonate her that well. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "x man" | ||||
Floyd | >The most disgusting corpse you believe you have ever seen. The flesh Floyd | is withered and seems to have been preserved while in the midst of Floyd | rotting. Judging by the holes in the clothes, he appears to have been Floyd | shot in the torso and head several times, but there is a distinct lack Floyd | of blood. Judging by the crooked angle of his legs, at least one had Floyd | been broken. His fingernails are peeled back, and his left arm is Floyd | outstretched towards the dead woman: grasping the floor as if he had Floyd | been crawling towards her with an intense amount of effort. Upon Floyd | closer inspection, you discover that the man is not "missing" a head, Floyd | per se, there blasted apart pieces of skull littering the room. All of Floyd | the bone fragments are covered with coagulated blood and rotting meat. Floyd | Floyd | You realize that you are looking at an actual zombie. Your heart and Floyd | breath quicken. If a person wearing a staff uniform has been infected, Floyd | then who knows the extent of the plague, and how it spreads? You are Floyd | not sure you can rely on the standard movie bite as the only mode of Floyd | transmission. It might be spread by more casual contact, or even Floyd | airborne. You resolve to survive. Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | You really want to get rid of this headache. Floyd | | DavidW says, "okay, I guess we should try to nuke him." | |||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "take man" | ||||
Floyd | >That's disgusting. You don't want to interfere with a future police Floyd | investigation and you certainly don't want to expose yourself to Floyd | whatever disease he's got, even with protective gloves. You leave him Floyd | put. Floyd | | ||||
| jenrexrode says (to Floyd), "x buttons" | ||||
Floyd | >You can't see any such thing. Floyd | | ||||
| Roger says (to floyd), "search woman" | ||||
Floyd | >Nothing but more blood. Floyd | | ||||
| Roger says (to floyd), "search zombie" | ||||
Floyd | >Nothing here but internal organs. Floyd | | DavidW asks, "I suppose we continue into the hall then?" | |||
| Roger says, "Yes" | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "swipe badge" | ||||
Floyd | >The door whooshes open with the wave of your plastic. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "s" | ||||
Floyd | > Floyd | First Floor Hall Floyd | You walk into a central hub of nondescript, pristinely sterile Floyd | hospital hallway. The lights flicker with the dim light of the Floyd | emergency power generator. The lack of noise sends a chill down your Floyd | spine. Where there should be doctors rushing, nurses chatting, and Floyd | patients complaining, you hear absolutely nothing. You wonder if this Floyd | building has been quarantined off or if the infection has spread Floyd | beyond it. You are thankful that there are no more signs of trouble: Floyd | no blood on the walls, no corpses on the ground. Then again, this does Floyd | make your situation more uncertain. Floyd | Floyd | You can go north to the Radiation Controls, south to the Elevator, Floyd | east to the Hospital Entry, or west to the Cafeteria. Floyd | | Roger says, "FOOOOOOd" | |||
| Roger says (to floyd), "W" | ||||
Floyd | > Floyd | Cafeteria Floyd | Where sterile halls and clean, empty rooms have dominated nearly all Floyd | of the hospital, the Cafeteria's vile stench precedes it a full Floyd | hallway in advance. The Cafeteria has been thoroughly raided. Floyd | Overturned bins of food, broken jugs of milk and other liquids have Floyd | all swirled together into a rotting pool of sludge. There are Floyd | still-sealed bottles of water that have managed to escape the ooze. Floyd | Floyd | A stove had been serving as a barricade to the kitchen, but it has Floyd | been shoved aside and overturned. You also note some blood and bloody Floyd | blunt objects. Floyd | Floyd | You can go north to the Kitchen or east to the First Floor Hall. Floyd | | ||||
| Trumgottist goes home. | ||||
| Roger says (to floyd), "X sludge" | ||||
Floyd | >A disgusting mix of undecipherable food, liquids and now mold. Floyd | Looking around at the pooled filth you wonder why all this food was Floyd | wasted. Floyd | | ||||
| Roger says (to floyd), "x water" | ||||
Floyd | >(sealed bottles) Floyd | Bottles of water that are still sealed and not covered in goo. Floyd | Floyd | Your stomach rumbles in hunger. Floyd | | ||||
| Roger says (to floyd), "take water" | ||||
Floyd | >(the water bottle) Floyd | Water will always come in handy, and you are certain that with the Floyd | seal it is safe to drink, providing you are very careful where you put Floyd | your lips. Floyd | Floyd | [Your score has just gone up by four points.] Floyd | | Roger says, "Okay someone else go" | |||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "x blunt objects" | ||||
Floyd | >Bloody trays, a skillet, a chair leg and even cooking utensils are Floyd | strewn about the room. They might have been marginally useful against Floyd | invading hordes, but now most of them are shattered or bent or plain Floyd | unwieldy from over-use. The skillet looks like it is in the best Floyd | condition. Floyd | Floyd | Judging by the way the blood has dried, they were used against Floyd | humans, not zombies. Floyd | Floyd | You feel weak from hunger. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "take skillet" | ||||
Floyd | > Floyd | The perfect thing for fighting off the undead and frying up some Floyd | eggs. You are certain it will come in handy for one of those things. Floyd | Floyd | [Your score has just gone up by three points.] Floyd | | DavidW asks, "Kitchen next?" | |||
| eladnarra says, "sure~" | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "n" | ||||
Floyd | > Floyd | Kitchen Floyd | You now realize where all the bodies are - in the kitchen. You see Floyd | rows upon rows of neatly stacked and cleaned dead bodies, ranging from Floyd | cafeteria workers to janitors to patients and doctors, all forming a Floyd | macabre scene. Floyd | Floyd | Tearing your eyes away from the gruesome pile, you look around and Floyd | notice a chaos of canned food. That is probably what the survivors Floyd | were fighting over - the promise of eating something that is Floyd | untainted. There is also a huge stainless steel walk-in freezer, not Floyd | to mention rows of promising cabinets. In the far corner you can see Floyd | a tin trash container and a plastic blue recycling bin. Floyd | Floyd | You can go south to the Cafeteria. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "take canned food" | ||||
Floyd | >You rifle through the various cans of food and grab the nice-looking Floyd | can of chickpeas. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "open cabinets" | ||||
Floyd | >You open the cabinets, revealing a microwave. Floyd | Floyd | A nice slab of steak sounds perfect right now. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "open freezer" | ||||
Floyd | >You see dozens more bodies stacked up in a neat row; with corpses Floyd | piled several layers high. They are stacked higher towards the end, Floyd | forming a slope. While the power had been on, you were sure that the Floyd | cold had helped keep these bodies hidden and preserved. The power has Floyd | apparently been off for some time now, as many of the bodies have Floyd | started to melt into one another. Floyd | Floyd | The stench, which had been sealed off, is now overwhelming and more Floyd | repulsive than you can even imagine. Barely suppressing the urge to Floyd | vomit, faint or do both, you close the freezer and back away. As you Floyd | back away from the freezer, you stumble over one of the dead bodies, Floyd | knocking it out of line. You really hope that someone is not going to Floyd | care about that because you are too disgusted to fix it. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "look in blue bin" | ||||
Floyd | >The plastic blue recycling bin is empty. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "look in trash" | ||||
Floyd | >The tin trash container is empty. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "x bodies" | ||||
Floyd | >Someone has neatly arranged bodies into a row, with the shortest Floyd | person in the middle and taller people on either sides. They all show Floyd | signs of a bloody struggle with serious injuries - some have had their Floyd | heads bashed in, some are missing body parts or have obvious amounts Floyd | of strong internal bleeding. They have all been cleaned up as much as Floyd | possible, closed their eyes and even pushed their cheeks into a smile. Floyd | Someone put a lot of time into doing this. Floyd | Floyd | You survey them one by one. You see nobody you recognize, but perhaps Floyd | that is only because you don't remember them. It appears as though Floyd | only a few of them had actually turned; the rest seem to lack bite Floyd | marks and only have wounds from fighting. Whoever lined them up also Floyd | seems to have taken everything useful from them - they lack food, Floyd | weapons, keys, and don't even have their wallets or ID cards. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "x microwave" | ||||
Floyd | >A boxy device used to heat up things. It looks like it's a decade Floyd | old at least, and the useless power cable has been ripped out from the Floyd | back of the machine. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "open it" | ||||
Floyd | >You open the microwave but the light don't come on. In fact, none of Floyd | the lights are on. The machine is quite broken. Floyd | | DavidW says, "hm. I haven't seen a can opener." | |||
| Roger says (to floyd), "take microwave" | ||||
Floyd | >It's a useless hunk of metal. It wouldn't even be wieldy enough to Floyd | use to bludgeon. Floyd | | Roger asks, "Did we take the skillet?" | |||
| DavidW says, "Possibly the rad machine can cut it open, but it's a longshot." | ||||
| DavidW says, "Yes, we took the skillet." | ||||
| Roger says (to floyd), "hit can with skillet" | ||||
Floyd | >(the can of chickpeas with skillet) Floyd | Violence is never the answer, except when it comes to survival. Well, Floyd | even now, it's not really going to help. Floyd | | DavidW says, "I think we need to go elsewhere." | |||
| Roger says, "Concur" | ||||
| Ellison says (to Floyd), "x can" | ||||
Floyd | >(the can of chickpeas (unclean)) Floyd | A metal can containing chickpeas. Happily for you, it is the kind you Floyd | can open without a can opener. Floyd | | eladnarra says, "hahaha" | |||
| jenrexrode says (to Floyd), "clean can" | ||||
Floyd | >(the can of chickpeas) Floyd | You achieve nothing by this. Floyd | Floyd | A collective moan arises from the rest of the city. It echoes and is Floyd | joined by more moans until a distance or origin point is simply Floyd | indeterminable. The voice of the despairing dead slowly peter out, Floyd | but their message for you remains. They are determined, and they do Floyd | not sleep, and they are always hungry, always desperate. You better Floyd | prepare your defenses. Floyd | | DavidW says, "oh" | |||
| Roger says, "Hey these aren't halal chickpeas" | ||||
| Ellison says, "heh" | ||||
| Roger says (to floyd), "open water" | ||||
Floyd | >You open the water bottle. Floyd | You take a small sip. Floyd | Floyd | To protect the water as best as you can, you close it tight again. Floyd | | eladnarra says, "okay, moaning is creepy..." | |||
| Roger says (to floyd), "wash can with water" | ||||
Floyd | >That's not a verb I recognise. Floyd | | DavidW says, "er, we could zap the can and maybe sterilize it." | |||
| Roger says (to floyd), "clean can with water" | ||||
Floyd | >You can't see any such thing. Floyd | | ||||
| Roger says (to floyd), "put water on can" | ||||
Floyd | >(the can of chickpeas (unclean)) Floyd | Putting things on the can of chickpeas (unclean) would achieve Floyd | nothing. Floyd | Floyd | Your stomach rumbles in hunger. Floyd | | Roger says, "Mmm, maybe" | |||
| Roger says, "Okay, let's go" | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "s" | ||||
Floyd | > Floyd | Cafeteria Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "e" | ||||
Floyd | > Floyd | First Floor Hall Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "n" | ||||
Floyd | > Floyd | Radiation Controls Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "n" | ||||
Floyd | > Floyd | Radiation Chamber Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "put can on pillow" | ||||
Floyd | >You put the can of chickpeas (unclean) on the pillow of the radiation Floyd | bed. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "s" | ||||
Floyd | > Floyd | Radiation Controls Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "push start button" | ||||
Floyd | >A beeping emanates from the door frame as the airtight door slides Floyd | itself closed. The machine hums. You hum along with it. The machine Floyd | stops humming. You have just completely sanitized a can of chickpeas. Floyd | The airtight door slides itself open. Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | You hear the faint sound of breathing and shuffling feet. You close Floyd | your eyes and hope you are mistaken. But the noise only gets louder. Floyd | In horror, you slowly turn around and are greeted by a young man Floyd | wearing a wearing a ripped, knee-length black skirt, ripped hose and a Floyd | garishly large green jacket, darkened in spots with blood. The makeup Floyd | on his face is smudged, and it's hard to tell where the lipstick ends Floyd | and the blood begins. As he stumbles towards you, you realize that he Floyd | probably didn't come from inside the hospital. The zombie's eyes seem Floyd | to fix on their newest target, and a gaping mouth opens ever-wider as Floyd | the stumbling intensifies. Floyd | Floyd | You stand your ground and prepare of battle. You have only a moment Floyd | before blood-stained jaws clamp down upon you. Floyd | | Roger says, "Oh man, zombie transvestites" | |||
| Roger says, "Or tranvestite zombies. Either way." | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "hit zombie with skillet" | ||||
Floyd | >(zombie crossdresser with skillet) Floyd | Wielding your best weapon (the skillet) you charge and scream as you Floyd | run towards the crossdresser, putting all your force into a Floyd | beautifully-arched swing. The metal makes contact with the skull, and Floyd | you hear the crackling of bone as blood spurts of blood fly around Floyd | you. As the body of the former person falls to the ground, the blood Floyd | around the skull wound and splattered onto the frying pan clots almost Floyd | instantly. The handle to the skillet breaks and is torn from your Floyd | hand by the force. You duck your head away to minimize contact with Floyd | flying debris. Floyd | Floyd | The now broken skillet clatters to the ground. You'd better find a Floyd | real weapon. Despite the racket, no more zombies come, and you can Floyd | only assume you were lucky enough that they simply didn't hear. You Floyd | slump in a corner, and quiver for minutes before being able to so much Floyd | as stand again. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "n" | ||||
Floyd | > Floyd | Radiation Chamber Floyd | On the head pillow is a can of chickpeas (closed). Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "take can" | ||||
Floyd | >Taken. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "open it" | ||||
Floyd | >You remove the lid, salivating at the prospect of food. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "eat food" | ||||
Floyd | >You can't see any such thing. Floyd | | Ellison asks, "now how we ever cook our post-zombie-apocalypse eggs?" | |||
| Ellison says, "will" | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "eat can" | ||||
Floyd | >You scarf the vegetables down, eager to have something to eat at Floyd | last. You hardly feel satisfied at all, and even a little queasy. Floyd | You recall hearing about the difficulties people have eating after Floyd | long bouts of starvation. Or maybe you just never liked chickpeas. Floyd | You feel an unusual craving for some meatloaf, but at least your Floyd | hunger pains are satiated. Floyd | Floyd | [Your score has just gone up by four points.] Floyd | | ||||

| DavidW says (to Floyd), "s" | ||||
Floyd | > Floyd | Radiation Controls Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "verbose" | ||||
Floyd | >Divis Mortis is now in its "verbose" mode, which always gives long Floyd | descriptions of locations (even if you've been there before). Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "x transvestite" | ||||
Floyd | >He was a sort of crossdresser, and a darned good one at that too. If Floyd | it wasn't for his (now bloody) adam's apple and lanky walk, you'd have Floyd | mistaken him for a woman. His skirt, already short, is ripped. One Floyd | of his shoes fell off, and his bright green jacket has been covered in Floyd | blood. His makeup was nice, but his face has been completely Floyd | destroyed. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "search him" | ||||
Floyd | >I'm not sure what "him" refers to. Floyd | | ||||

Floyd | Floyd | You can go north to the Radiation Controls, south to the Elevator, Floyd | east to the Hospital Entry, or west to the Cafeteria. Floyd | | DavidW asks, "Entry or Elevator?" | |||
| DavidW says, "I think we should try Entry first." | ||||
| Roger says, "Sure" | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "e" | ||||
Floyd | > Floyd | Entry Hall Floyd | The grand entrance to the Calypso Hospital, dead bodies hang from Floyd | ropes tied to the previously majestic arches and pillars. There is a Floyd | series of abandoned check-in counters. There are various benches along Floyd | the hallway, as well as couches and a small table littered with Floyd | magazines. The large glass sliding door to the outside displays a Floyd | thick, ominous fog. You think you see figures moving in the fog, but Floyd | then again, you might just be playing tricks on yourself. Floyd | Floyd | You can go north to the Gift Shop, south to the Pharmacy, east to the Floyd | Hospital Exterior, west to the First Floor Hallway and northwest to Floyd | the Physical Therapy room.

You are guessing that this is the Floyd | original zombie victim's files. First flipping casually through the Floyd | files, you notice that there are several copies of the same documents. Floyd | Several people were going over these files. Floyd | Floyd | The files talk about a John Doe victim who was bitten in the leg, Floyd | punctured a major vessel, lost consciousness, and whose heart had Floyd | stopped for 2 minutes. The heart resumed function, and then the man Floyd | jumped out of his stretcher and attacked several doctors with his Floyd | teeth. He had to be restrained, but not after biting several Floyd | orderlies and other staff. Floyd | Floyd | Whenever he noticed anyone in the vicinity, he would mindlessly and Floyd | completely devote himself to attacking and eating that person. There Floyd | is a note about his disease definitely being transmitted by bite - you Floyd | guess this means the staff turned as well, but you suppose their Floyd | records would be kept confidentially separate from this John Doe. You Floyd | suppose that they somehow passed the disease on themselves. Floyd | Floyd | This isn't really anything that you wouldn't have guessed yourself, Floyd | except for a little addendum at the end: There are notes that several Floyd | of the cancer patients did not get infected, even after they got Floyd | bitten.

You can see Floyd | your Volvo with a zombified occupant trapped inside, clawing at the Floyd | window, unsure how to open the door. Floyd | Floyd | It looks like somebody tried to take advantage of your habit of Floyd | leaving the car unlocked, but turned before getting the chance to Floyd | escape. It probably wouldn't have done her any good anyway, you have Floyd | no idea where your keys ended up, and a car would attract lots of Floyd | attention, until it ran out of gas.

Floyd | >(the Volvo car) Floyd | A rather normal looking Volvo wagon: it appears as if the car thief...

The occupant is now clawing at the window, Floyd | staring through with glassy eyes, unable to figure a way out. It Floyd | doesn't look like she has your keys, and they're not in the ignition. Floyd | You worry about her being able to break the window or claw the door Floyd | handle open, so you do your best to keep your distance and hide. Floyd | Floyd | Looking more closely, you can see a toolbox in the Volvo's trunk. Floyd | | ||||

More Floyd | importantly at the moment, however is the fact that zombified occupant Floyd | hears and twists her head to see. She hisses and claws at the seats. Floyd | You feel confident that the seat belt will hold her in place until you Floyd | hear a snap. It appears the woman was more injured than you initially Floyd | assessed; she had a large part of her midsection missing. Lacking Floyd | internal organs, or pesky connecting tissue, the change in pressure Floyd | from her turning to look at you has snapped her spine. Floyd | Floyd | Leaving her legs in the seat and pulling up on the shoulders of the Floyd | seats, she heaves her torso through the car.

You tip it Floyd | over so that the top is pressing against the glass doors. The doors Floyd | try to swing open inward, but they make it only a few inches before Floyd | being effectively stopped. Floyd | Floyd | Unfortunately, the loud noise so close to the entrance has attracted Floyd | a lot of attention; the undead press in against the entry, Floyd | lethargically banging at the glass doors. More keep coming. Some Floyd | attempt to climb through, and fail. It would be difficult for any Floyd | zombies to get in, but you feel uneasy. Floyd | | ||||

Floyd | >You finalize the front door barricade with the large wooden table. Floyd | Now you can't see out the doors, and zombies can't see in.

Floyd | >To your surprise, you find a young man in his twenties gagged and Floyd | chained up to an especially sturdy pipe; he silently recoils at the Floyd | sight of you, not even daring to whimper. Tears flow down his dirtied Floyd | face and stick to his ear-length sandy blonde hair. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "untie man" | ||||
Floyd | >(the young man) Floyd | Fumbling through the keys with your thick gloves, you find a small key Floyd | that looks like a good candidate and walk forward to unlock his Floyd | chains. He stares as you with eyes perplexed, even long after it is Floyd | clear that your only intentions are to unlock him. He relaxes Floyd | slightly and sits still as you jam the key into the padlock and hear Floyd | the comforting click. He rips off his gag and throws the duct tape Floyd | away, gasping in pain. He immediately slumps into a relieved mass and Floyd | whispers out a "thank you." Floyd | Floyd | He then stares up at you with the sweetest, heart-warming smile. You Floyd | blush and for the first time realize what a handsome man he is. You Floyd | return the smile. Well, all that's left to do really is stay here and Floyd | wait for the calvary. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "ask man about himself" | ||||
Floyd | >(the young man about that) Floyd | There is no reply. Floyd | Floyd | You hear muffled stamping and shouts coming from upstairs in the Floyd | hospital. You both look up excitedly, doubting that help is actually Floyd | on the way. You can hear occasional bursts of gunfire, and soon you Floyd | can even hear shouts. You are pretty sure safety is on the way. | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "ask man about old man" | ||||
Floyd | >(the young man about that) Floyd | "I came into the hospital seeking refuge. He invited me to he safe Floyd | zone, and was very friendly, even gave me some food. I still had my Floyd | own, so I told him he could keep it. Then he, he I dunno he Floyd | switched." You can see the horror in his eyes. "He started mumbling Floyd | about order and shoved me through this hole, when I saw all the bodies Floyd | I tried to run, but he just tackled me and slammed my head hard. I Floyd | woke up chained, and heard him cursing at the barricade.". Floyd | Floyd | You hear shouts coming from the other side of the barricade, warning Floyd | you to stay away from the entrance. The young man stands up and turns Floyd | to you. "Listen, I'm not entirely sure what's going on, but it's sure Floyd | as hell they won't know either. You're in danger, you're likely to be Floyd | blamed. They won't..." he falters, tears brimming as he wipes them Floyd | away. "They won't attack me" he tells you, less than confidently. Floyd | "because I look like a victim." Floyd | Floyd | You glance at his wrists, and the tale they immediately tell. The Floyd | rows of bodies sure do look bad. Your fellow companion walks towards Floyd | the file cabinets and orders you to stay where you are. You try to Floyd | object, but he hears none of it. Floyd | | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "tell man about cancer" | ||||
Floyd | >(the young man about that) Floyd | There is no reply. Floyd | Floyd | Suddenly, the top file cabinet is wrenched back and a S.W.A.T. member Floyd | runs through the top pile of doors. After only glancing at the pile Floyd | of bodies, he swings his rifle up at you. "What the hell is going Floyd | on." he demands. Shock and adrenaline pump through you. Your eyes Floyd | widen and your nostrils flare. You automatically switch to a Floyd | combative stance and an image of pouncing him and disarming him of Floyd | that rifle briefly flashes through your mind. Floyd | Floyd | Luckily, your companion has better kept his wits about him, and he Floyd | immediately intervenes: stepping into the line of fire and telling how Floyd | you saved him from a crazed survivor. He explains that the crazed Floyd | survivor was the one who killed everyone trying to contain the Floyd | infection. More S.W.A.T. members pour in and similarly aim their Floyd | weapons at you. None are aiming at your companion. You're now Floyd | effectively surrounded by your supposed rescuers. Floyd | Floyd | Uncertain, the S.W.A.T. member yells at you to drop your gun, and Floyd | points his assault rifle at you with more vigor. Floyd | | DavidW asks, "Do we drop the gun?" | |||
| Ellison says, "sure" | ||||
| Roger says, "I would" | ||||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "drop gun" | ||||
Floyd | >You drop the handgun. The S.W.A.T. member visibly relaxes. Floyd | Floyd | After complying with their orders, the members of the S.W.A.T. remain Floyd | uncertain. They radio for backup. One of the team members cautiously Floyd | walks up to you. "Do you know... who... what you are?" Confused, all Floyd | you can do is shake your head. One of the other members starts Floyd | digging through a pack and procures a tactical mirror, handing it Floyd | over. Hesitantly, you look at yourself in the mirror. Your skin is Floyd | mottled and was decomposing at some point, but now has a weathered, Floyd | preserved look. There is a rather large gash on your forehead that Floyd | has been bandaged. Helplessly you stare at the reflection you want Floyd | not to be your own, but that matches you at every turn. You drop the Floyd | mirror and start to cry. No tears come; you are physically incapable. Floyd | Floyd | The young man whom you saved sees your distress, comes over and Floyd | embraces you, not caring that his skin touches yours. The guns are Floyd | all lowered and you hear a cacophony of clicks. Radiation kills the Floyd | neuro-virus, and you realize the significance of you waking up in a Floyd | radiation chamber. Noticing that you are lost in your thoughts, you Floyd | glance around at a room of confused S.W.A.T members.
