Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | It is really hot today. Sprawled across the bed of your hotel Floyd | room, you lie sweltering in a growing puddle of sweat. There are no Floyd | flies in the air, but that is only because they have all passed out on Floyd | the floor. Floyd | Ventilator Floyd | An Interactive Fiction by Peregrine Wade Floyd | Release 1 / Serial number 161008 / Inform 7 build 6M62 (I6/v6.33 lib Floyd | 6/12N) Floyd | Floyd | Hotel Room Floyd | This is the overpriced room you've paid for. It is striking by its Floyd | lack of character, its uncomfortable-looking bed, its rickety table, Floyd | its miniscule minibar, its enormous curtainless window which allows Floyd | all the blazing sunlight outside to roast you alive, and a door that Floyd | leads out into the corridor. To say nothing of the toilet. Floyd | Floyd | Standing here, beckoning to you, is the ventilator. Is it your friend? Floyd | Or your foe? Time will tell. Floyd | Floyd | Anyhow, it's quiet, possibly because it's currently switched off. Floyd | Floyd | On the dirty floor are some flies. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "We'll let Guenni enter the commands today." | |
Jacqueline asks, "Should we shut the curtains? To block out the sun?" | ||
Roger says, "I don't know why I swallowed the fly" | ||
Roger says, "You see no curtains here" | ||
Jacqueline says, "Oh, I missed the key word 'curtainless'" | ||
Jacqueline says, "Well, there is always X ME and I." | ||
Draconis says, "And X VENTILATOR" | ||
Jacqueline says, "Yes" | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "x ventalator" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > X VENTALATOR Floyd | Floyd | You can't see any such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says (to Guenni), "vent-i-lator" | |
Guenni says (to floyd), "vx me" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > VX ME Floyd | Floyd | Maybe you need to check your spelling, or maybe you need HELP. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "x me" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > X ME Floyd | Floyd | You are unable to examine yourself without a mirror, and the hotel has Floyd | a strict policy against people with prehensile eyes. Joking aside, you Floyd | look as normal as ever... albeit a little under the weather. And, of Floyd | course, your heart is in a mess. Sigh. Floyd | Floyd | > | Roger says, "We already VX'd Kim" | |
Jacqueline says, "I have already gotten my desired effect from this game. It made me laugh before the title credits with the bit about the flies." | ||
Jacqueline says (to Roger), "That... shouldn't be funny. But it kind of is." | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "i" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > I Floyd | Floyd | You are carrying: Floyd | some trousers (being worn) Floyd | a shirt (being worn) Floyd | your hair (being worn) Floyd | Floyd | > | Guenni asks, "well, shall I switch it on?" | |
Jacqueline exclaims, "Go for it!" | ||
Jacqueline says, "I'm sure it will end badly, but yes. Switch it on." | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "switch on ventilator" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > SWITCH ON VENTILATOR Floyd | Floyd | Are you sure? | Draconis says, "Your hair (being worn)" | |
Jacqueline laughs. | ||
Jacqueline exclaims, "Yes, we are sure!" | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "yes" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | Are you sure? Floyd | > YES Floyd | Floyd | You turn on the ventilator. Shortly afterwards, your hair is swept Floyd | off, soaring through the air buoyantly before being flattened like a Floyd | particularly inedible pancake onto the wall. Whoa! Perhaps a tad Floyd | excessive, even for a brand new model. Floyd | Floyd | But, however, this at least has had the desired effect, reviving you Floyd | sufficiently to be able to get back up again. Now, you just need to Floyd | find a drink... Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | > | Draconis says, "No longer being worn, evidently" | |
Guenni says (to floyd), "l" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > L Floyd | Floyd | Hotel Room Floyd | This is the overpriced room you've paid for. It is striking by its Floyd | lack of character, its uncomfortable-looking bed, its rickety table, Floyd | its miniscule minibar, its enormous curtainless window which allows Floyd | all the blazing sunlight outside to roast you alive, and a door that Floyd | leads out into the corridor. To say nothing of the toilet. Floyd | Floyd | Standing here, roaring away like nobody's business, is the ventilator. Floyd | Floyd | On the wall is your hair. Floyd | Floyd | The ventilator is a bit too powerful for your liking. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says (to Draconis), "You've played this before, I take it." | |
Guenni says (to floyd), "x minibar" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > X MINIBAR Floyd | Floyd | A minibar. Just a minibar. Not a spaceship. Not a portal to another Floyd | world. Not... well, you get the idea. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says (to Guenni), "Yes, please look at all the things in the room." | |
Guenni says (to floyd), "open it" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > OPEN IT Floyd | Floyd | The minibar opens with some difficulty, releasing a flood of salted Floyd | peanuts, paprika chips, and some rather gooey guacamole. There is no Floyd | sign of anything remotely drinkable, oddly enough for a hotel set in Floyd | the middle of New Mexico. Floyd | Do you wish to complain to the hotel staff? | Jacqueline says, "Oh. Sure. Complain to the hotel staff. Say yes." | |
Guenni says (to floyd), "yes" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | Do you wish to complain to the hotel staff? Floyd | > YES Floyd | Floyd | After an hour of being yelled at in a language that sounds Floyd | suspiciously like a bizarre mix of English, Esperanto and Floyd | Parseltongue, you are kicked out by an implausible hotel employee with Floyd | a huge mustache and a sombrero you could canoe across the Rio Grande Floyd | in. You wander about the desert and - for no conceivable reason than Floyd | that otherwise the story of your life would have ended in a boring way Floyd | - get abducted by aliens. Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | *** What the hell??? This isn't a proper ending! Floyd | (Juvenile Joke #4 out of 7) *** Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Would you like to RESTART, RESTORE a saved game, QUIT or UNDO the last Floyd | command? Floyd | > | Draconis says (to Jacqueline), "Strangely enough, no. I meant to but didn't get around to it." | |
Jacqueline says, "So, there are at least seven juvenile jokes, it would appear." | ||
Jacqueline asks, "I am up for restarting and playing it again. Others?" | ||
Guenni asks, "I take it we restart?" | ||
Guenni laughs' | ||
Jacqueline says (to Guenni), "If you'd like to play again, yes. Please restart." | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "restart" | ||

There are no Floyd | flies in the air, but that is only because they have all passed out on Floyd | the floor. Floyd | Ventilator Floyd | An Interactive Fiction by Peregrine Wade Floyd | Release 1 / Serial number 161008 / Inform 7 build 6M62 (I6/v6.33 lib Floyd | 6/12N) Floyd | Floyd | Hotel Room Floyd | This is the overpriced room you've paid for.

Floyd | Floyd | Anyhow, it's quiet, possibly because it's currently switched off. Floyd | Floyd | On the dirty floor are some flies. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "Let's examine the toilet" | |
Guenni says (to floyd), "x toilet" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > X TOILET Floyd | Floyd | It's not even worthy of being called a separate room, being basically Floyd | a hollow cavity in the wall protected from prying eyes only by a pair Floyd | of ludicrous saloon doors. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "Nice." | |
Jacqueline asks, "Examine the bed? The table?" | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "x bed" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > X BED Floyd | Floyd | Drenched with sweat. Floyd | Floyd | > | Roger says, "Not your sweat, though" | |
Guenni says (to floyd), "look under it" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > LOOK UNDER IT Floyd | Floyd | You find a book that some previous guest had left there, mummified in Floyd | a shroud of dust bunnies, and out of curiosity you take it. Floyd | Floyd | It's really hot in here, as mentioned previously. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "x dust" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > X DUST Floyd | Floyd | You can't see any such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline asks, "huh. Nice find on the book. What is it?" | |
Guenni says (to floyd), "x book" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > X BOOK Floyd | Floyd | It's "Three Men in a Boat", Stephanie's favourite book! You flit Floyd | through it idly and find the passage where Harris sings comic songs. Floyd | Floyd | > | Draconis asks, "Read it?" | |
Jacqueline asks, "Who is Stephanie?" | ||
Roger says, "I can't remember the last time I saw a hotel bed that could be looked under" | ||
Jacqueline says (to Roger), "True" | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "remember stephanie" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > REMEMBER STEPHANIE Floyd | Floyd | Maybe you need to check your spelling, or maybe you need HELP. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says (to Guenni), "Nice try. Sadly, remember isn't a default verb" | |
Guenni says, "I guess he's the one responsible for the broken heart." | ||
Guenni says, "she" | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "x table" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > X TABLE Floyd | Floyd | On the table is a ventilator. Floyd | Floyd | > | Roger says, "Maybe she got ventilated" | |
Jacqueline asks, "This may not work, but maybe try to think about Stephanie?" | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "thank about stephanie" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > THANK ABOUT STEPHANIE Floyd | Floyd | You can't see any such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "look under table" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > LOOK UNDER TABLE Floyd | Floyd | You kneel down and look under the table. A cockroach sees you, Floyd | panicks, runs around in circles and finally scurries out of the room. Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | > | Guenni says, "nice." | |
Jacqueline says, "Earlier, you typed thank about stephanie, not think about. (Not that I believe either will work.)" | ||
Jacqueline says, "Yeah, the cockroach bit is good." | ||
Guenni says, "oops." | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "think about stephanie" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > THINK ABOUT STEPHANIE Floyd | Floyd | I only understood you as far as wanting to think. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "Darn" | |
Jacqueline says, "We could open the minifridge, but then not complain to the management." | ||
Guenni says, "I'd like to x the hair. Perhaps there's a way to save it when switching the monster." | ||
Jacqueline says, "Sure" | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "x hair" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > X HAIR Floyd | Floyd | You see nothing special about your hair, other than the fact that Floyd | it's attached to your scalp and is not some smarmy wig. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "wow" | |
Jacqueline says, "So it really is quite a ventilator." | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "pud book on hair" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > PUD BOOK ON HAIR Floyd | Floyd | Maybe you need to check your spelling, or maybe you need HELP. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "put book on hair" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > PUT BOOK ON HAIR Floyd | Floyd | Putting things on your hair would achieve nothing. Floyd | Floyd | You have ceased to sweat. This is a bad sign, considering that the Floyd | temperature exceeds 30 degrees Celsius. Floyd | Floyd | > | Guenni says, "ok so the next scalping is inevitable for nov." | |
Guenni says (to floyd), "switch on ventilator" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > SWITCH ON VENTILATOR Floyd | Floyd | Are you sure? | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "yes" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | Are you sure? Floyd | > YES Floyd | Floyd | You turn on the ventilator. Shortly afterwards, your hair is swept Floyd | off, soaring through the air buoyantly before being flattened like a Floyd | particularly inedible pancake onto the wall. Whoa! Perhaps a tad Floyd | excessive, even for a brand new model. Floyd | Floyd | But, however, this at least has had the desired effect, reviving you Floyd | sufficiently to be able to get back up again. Now, you just need to Floyd | find a drink... Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "open minibar" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | > Floyd | > OPEN MINIBAR Floyd | Floyd | The minibar opens with some difficulty, releasing a flood of salted Floyd | peanuts, paprika chips, and some rather gooey guacamole. There is no Floyd | sign of anything remotely drinkable, oddly enough for a hotel set in Floyd | the middle of New Mexico. Floyd | Do you wish to complain to the hotel staff? | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "no" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room High Noon Floyd | Do you wish to complain to the hotel staff? Floyd | > NO Floyd | Floyd | You quash your resentment. Best not to anger the hotel staff unduly. Floyd | So you try to close the minibar, but funnily enough it won't close. Floyd | You are forced to leave it as it is, guacamole spilling about and all. Floyd | Floyd | The ventilator is a bit too powerful for your liking. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "switch off ventilator" | ||
Floyd | > Floyd | > SWITCH OFF VENTILATOR Floyd | Floyd | The ventilator has a mind of its own, and suddenly you are blown Floyd | backwards against the wall by the sheer force of the air being blasted Floyd | out. The battle to the death has now begun! Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | A cat peeps through the door, clearly wondering why you are in such a Floyd | ridiculous posture. Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Please press SPACE to continue. | Draconis says, "Oh my" | |
Guenni says, "..floyd" | Roger says, "Turning you on does not mean I consent to you pinning me to a wall" | |
Guenni says, "which one is the space button." | ||
Roger asks, "I think maybe it's green?" | ||
Jacqueline says, "Sorry, I have had something come up and I need to step away." | ||
Roger pushes the green 'space' button. | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room Man Vs Machine Floyd | Floyd | Hotel Room (on the wall) Floyd | This is the overpriced room you've paid for. It is striking by its Floyd | lack of character, its uncomfortable-looking bed, its rickety table, Floyd | its miniscule minibar, its enormous curtainless window which allows Floyd | all the blazing sunlight outside to roast you alive, and a door that Floyd | leads out into the corridor. To say nothing of the toilet. Floyd | Floyd | Standing here, roaring away like nobody's business, is the ventilator. Floyd | Floyd | On the wall you can see your hair (and yourself, of course). Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | > | Roger says, "Yeah, it's the green button" | |
Guenni says (to floyd), "down" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room Man Vs Machine Floyd | > Floyd | > DOWN Floyd | Floyd | You bang your head against the walls fruitlessly. You now fully Floyd | perceive that the only way is out.... unless you really want to jump Floyd | through the window. Floyd | Floyd | The cat says "Miaow?" apprehensively. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "out" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room Man Vs Machine Floyd | > Floyd | > OUT Floyd | Floyd | You try to use all your might to get yourself back standing on the Floyd | floor where you rightfully belong, but fail miserably. Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Draconis asks, "Ask the cat to turn it off?" | Draconis asks, "Ask the cat to turn it off?" | |
Guenni laughs | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "ask cat to switch ventilator" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room Man Vs Machine Floyd | > Floyd | > ASK CAT TO SWITCH VENTILATOR Floyd | Floyd | Maybe you need to check your spelling, or maybe you need HELP. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "ask cat to switch off ventilator" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room Man Vs Machine Floyd | > Floyd | > ASK CAT TO SWITCH OFF VENTILATOR Floyd | Floyd | Maybe you need to check your spelling, or maybe you need HELP. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "throw dust bunnies at ventilator" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room Man Vs Machine Floyd | > Floyd | > THROW DUST BUNNIES AT VENTILATOR Floyd | Floyd | You can't see any such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "i" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room Man Vs Machine Floyd | > Floyd | > I Floyd | Floyd | You are carrying: Floyd | a book Floyd | some trousers (being worn) Floyd | a shirt (being worn) Floyd | Floyd | > | Guenni asks, "didn't we collect some dust bunnies under the bed?" | |
Guenni says (to floyd), "throw book at ventilator" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room Man Vs Machine Floyd | > Floyd | > THROW BOOK AT VENTILATOR Floyd | Floyd | Tears welling up in your eyes, you hurl Three Men in a Boat Floyd | in the face of the terrible Ventilator. The villainous machine shreds Floyd | the slim, dog-eared tome into confettis. Floyd | Floyd | The Ventilator's wrath has now been aroused, and you watch in silent Floyd | awe as it sends halff your belongings through the wall into the Floyd | neighbouring room. Your mobile phone is now sliding past you, hopping Floyd | and skipping madly as it is being blown about. Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "take mobile phone" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room Man Vs Machine Floyd | > Floyd | > TAKE MOBILE PHONE Floyd | Floyd | Taken. Floyd | Floyd | The Ventilator is blowing you towards the toilet, clearly under the Floyd | impression that you wish to go there. Nothing could be further from Floyd | the truth. Floyd | Floyd | > | Guenni asks, "any ideas?" | |
Guenni says (to floyd), "x phone" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room Man Vs Machine Floyd | > Floyd | > X PHONE Floyd | Floyd | Your treasured possession, and only contact with the outside world. On Floyd | its screen is a list of contacts. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline asks, "I'm back. Maybe try to phone for help?" | |
Guenni says (to floyd), "x list" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room Man Vs Machine Floyd | > Floyd | > X LIST Floyd | Floyd | You can't see any such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline asks, "x contacts?" | |
Guenni says (to floyd), "x contacts" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room Man Vs Machine Floyd | > Floyd | > X CONTACTS Floyd | Floyd | Since you can't remember a phone number to save your life, this is how Floyd | you keep track of everything. Floyd | Floyd | POLICE, DOCTOR, HELP, STEPH, BOB, PIZZA, GOD Floyd | Floyd | > | Guenni asks, "" Well, which one first?" | |
Jacqueline asks, "Steph?" | ||
Guenni says, "He won't be e happy camper, but let's try it." | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "call steph" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room Man Vs Machine Floyd | > Floyd | > CALL STEPH Floyd | Floyd | Maybe she can help you. She's still your girlfriend, in spite of that Floyd | argument you both had... You dial the number hopefully. Floyd | Floyd | Her answering machine is the only reply: "Hello, you have reached Floyd | Stephanie Crane's phone, but she is out right now and won't be back Floyd | before next Christmas. Please leave a message after the beep. BEEP." Floyd | Your morale now at its lowest point in recorded history, you hang up Floyd | listlessly. All is lost. Floyd | Floyd | The toilet is now hurtling at great speed towards you, or perhaps you Floyd | are hurtling at great speed towards it. You don't really have the time Floyd | to figure it out. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "put shirt on head" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room Man Vs Machine Floyd | > Floyd | > PUT SHIRT ON HEAD Floyd | Floyd | You can't see any such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "Well, I would like to see all the responses to all the people, though I suspect we are about to run out of time and be killed by the toilet." | |
Guenni nods | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "out" | ||
Floyd ] Hotel Room Man Vs Machine Floyd | > Floyd | > OUT Floyd | Floyd | You try to use all your might to get yourself back standing on the Floyd | floor where you rightfully belong, but fail miserably. Floyd | Floyd | Hang on a second... isn't it strange how long it's taking for you to Floyd | crash into the toilet? This hotel room must be wider than you Floyd | realized. Probably why it was so expensive in the first place. Floyd | Floyd | > | Guenni says, ""hmm ok perhaps time for one more. So whom next." | |
Jacqueline says, "God" | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "call god" | ||
Floyd | > Floyd | > CALL GOD Floyd | Floyd | You don't remember saving this particular number on your mobile phone. Floyd | It seems to have appeared in your contacts by magic. Perhaps a sign? Floyd | You dial it with high hopes.... Floyd | Floyd | "HELLO," a voice booms, sounding remarkably like Darth Vader. "HOW MAY Floyd | I HELP YOU?" Floyd | Floyd | "I'm doomed!" you reply, tears streaming off your face and flying out Floyd | the window. Floyd | Floyd | You don't hear the answer the voice makes, but suddenly everything Floyd | around you stands still, hushed by a great silence. As you land nimbly Floyd | on your feet, the ground gives way to nothingness, and the sunlight Floyd | turns into blackest night... Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Please press SPACE to continue. | Draconis says, "...what" | |
Jacqueline pushes the green 'space' button. | ||
Floyd ] Void Awakening Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Void Floyd | All around you stretches the endlessness of outer space. You float Floyd | aimlessly among the stars and galaxies, which by some strange magic Floyd | have been shrunk to the size of flies. Floyd | Floyd | God is here, watching you benevolently. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "(You can also just type >PRESS SPACE without regard to what color the button is.)" | |
Jacqueline says, "Well, X GOD" | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "x god" | ||
Floyd ] Void Awakening Floyd | > Floyd | > X GOD Floyd | Floyd | You can't describe this sight in words, because there are no words to Floyd | describe it. All you can make out is a T-shirt reading "I TOTALLY Floyd | ROCK, DUDE". God, a fan of rock n" roll? What a revelation. Floyd | Floyd | > | Guenni says, ""Ok, I didn't expect to end up therc." | |
Guenni says (to floyd), "x me" | ||
Floyd ] Void Awakening Floyd | > Floyd | > X ME Floyd | Floyd | You appear to be completely nude. How embarrassing. Now the whole Floyd | Universe can see your ingrown toenail. Floyd | Floyd | > | Draconis says, "omg" | |
Guenni says, ""literally" | ||
Jacqueline says, "heh" | ||
Jacqueline asks, "Do we have any possessions?" | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "i" | ||
Floyd ] Void Awakening Floyd | > Floyd | > I Floyd | Floyd | You are carrying nothing. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "ask god about stephanie" | ||
Floyd ] Void Awakening Floyd | > Floyd | > ASK GOD ABOUT STEPHANIE Floyd | Floyd | [Use TALK TO to interact with characters.] Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "walk to god" | ||
Floyd ] Void Awakening Floyd | > Floyd | > WALK TO GOD Floyd | Floyd | You can't see any such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | Draconis says, "I feel like God needs a dramatic echo" | |
Guenni exclaims, ""I hate my sometime typing incompetency!!" | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "talk to god" | ||
Floyd ] Void Awakening Floyd | > Floyd | > TALK TO GOD Floyd | Floyd | "What has happened to me?" Floyd | Floyd | "I RESCUED YOU," God booms. He still sounds a lot like Darth Vader. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline asks, "Keep talking?" | |
Guenni says (to floyd), "g" | ||
Floyd ] Void Awakening Floyd | > Floyd | > G Floyd | Floyd | "I know that," you say, "but am I alive or dead? Is this Heaven? Where Floyd | is everybody?" Floyd | Floyd | "YOU ARE STILL MISSING THE BIG PICTURE," God booms. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "g" | ||
Floyd ] Void Awakening Floyd | > Floyd | > G Floyd | Floyd | "What is the big picture?" you ask. Floyd | Floyd | God hesitates. Then, the answer comes: "THE VENTILATOR, THE CAT, THE Floyd | HOTEL ROOM.... ALL OF IT.... DID YOU TRULY BELIEVE THAT IT WAS REAL?" Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, ">GOD, SORRY" | |
Jacqueline says, "(kidding)" | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "g" | ||
Floyd ] Void Awakening Floyd | > Floyd | > G Floyd | Floyd | "Now that I think about it... it did seems kind of... surreal?" you Floyd | say tentatively. Floyd | Floyd | "OF COURSE IT DID, FRANK," God booms in a whisper (something normally Floyd | impossible to do, but this is God after all). "THIS WAS A DREAM; A Floyd | DREAM WHICH IN A LANGUAGE OF ITS OWN WAS TRYING TO TELL YOU Floyd | SOMETHING." Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "g" | ||
Floyd ] Void Awakening Floyd | > Floyd | > G Floyd | Floyd | "What was it trying to tell me?" you ask, almost afraid of the answer. Floyd | Floyd | "THAT THERE IS A SIDE OF YOU WHICH PUSHES AWAY THOSE THAT IT LOVES; A Floyd | SIDE SYMBOLIZED BY THE VENTILATOR. THAT SIDE WILL ULTIMATELY RESULT IN Floyd | YOUR OWN DESTRUCTION, IF YOU DO NOT LEARN TO OVERCOME IT." Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "g" | ||
Floyd ] Void Awakening Floyd | > Floyd | > G Floyd | Floyd | "But what about the rest? The flies? The minibar? The cat? Everything Floyd | else?" Floyd | Floyd | "ALL PIECES OF THE SAME PUZZLE," God replies. "THE CAT SYMBOLIZED YOUR Floyd | CAPACITY TO BE KIND WITH OTHERS, THE MINIBAR WAS A PLACE TO HIDE FROM Floyd | THE SUFFERING OF THE OUTSIDE WORLD WHICH ULTIMATELY RESULTED IN YOUR Floyd | SYMBOLIC DEATH, AND THE FLIES...THE FLIES...WELL, THEY WERE MILDLY Floyd | AMUSING. NOT EVERYTHING HAS TO HAVE A MEANING." Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "Sometimes a fly is just a fly" | |
Guenni says (to floyd), "g" | ||
Floyd ] Void Awakening Floyd | > Floyd | > G Floyd | Floyd | "Am I going to be subjected to pop psychology for the rest of Floyd | eternity? Is that what Hell really is about?" you say angrily. Floyd | Floyd | God sighs. "TIME FOR YOU TO FIX WHAT YOU HAVE BROKEN." Suddenly, a Floyd | mobile phone appears in your hand, and God vanishes. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "x phone" | ||
Floyd ] Void Awakening Floyd | > Floyd | > X PHONE Floyd | Floyd | Your treasured possession, and only contact with the outside world. On Floyd | its screen is a list of contacts. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Guenni says (to floyd), "call stephanie" | ||
Floyd ] Void Awakening Floyd | > Floyd | > CALL STEPHANIE Floyd | Floyd | You hear her voice at the other end of the line! "Where WERE you, Floyd | Frank? You just ran off without any warning..." Floyd | Floyd | "I was in a bad place," you answer truthfully. An idea occurs to you Floyd | suddenly, and you reach out your hand and... turn on the light. Lo and Floyd | behold! You are in your own bedroom, at home! No Ventilator to be Floyd | seen! So it WAS all a dream. Floyd | Floyd | "Hello? Are you still there?" Stephanie asks. Floyd | Floyd | "Huh? Oh, I was just thinking about something I've always wanted to Floyd | say to you..." you reply, feeling suddenly more uplifted than you've Floyd | ever felt in your life. Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | *** The End *** Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Would you like to RESTART, RESTORE a saved game, see some suggestions Floyd | for AMUSING things to do, QUIT or UNDO the last command? Floyd | > | Guenni says, ""So thet was that." | |
Jacqueline says, "Wow" | ||
Jacqueline says, "That... was an unexpectedly good ending." | ||
Draconis says, "...wow" | ||
Guenni says, "Yeah, although a bit sudden." | ||
Guenni says, "HBut I agree, it was pretty uplifting." | ||
Jacqueline says, "I'm afraid that I don't have time for a second game of something today." | ||
Jacqueline says, "We are in the middle of moving." | ||
Jacqueline says, "I will leave the transcript running. You all can find more (likely bad) endings to this, or you can play Do Not Meddle, which is uploaded under 'donotmeddle'" | ||
Jacqueline says, "Or, of course, you all can also call it quits." | ||
Jacqueline says, "I shall leave that up to you nice people." | ||
Jacqueline says, "Thanks for driving, Guenni! You did well." | ||
Guenni says, "thanks." | ||
Guenni says, "I'll call it quits as well for today." | ||
