CF \|
CF \| You've always loved mornings. Not because of the vitamin D or the
CF \| beauty of the rising sun, but because it's, like, the best time to
CF \| sleep. During the night, you always take upwards of an hour before you
CF \| can fall asleep. During the morningafter extending the alarm by
CF \| 10-minutesit's back to weird, nonsensical dreams for you. It's
CF \| practically become your routine at this point. And this morning is no
CF \| different.
CF \|
CF \| Your phone goes off with an annoying BEEP * BEEP* BEEP.
CF \|
CF \| You sit up from your bed. Even though you made a point of loving
CF \| mornings, no sane human being could possibly love waking up. Right?
DavidW pushes the green 'space' button.
CF \|
CF \|
CF \| Bedroom
CF \| You've just woken up from a weird dream about green cows and white
CF \| trees. That dream was really something. You remember it quite fondly.
CF \| So, you're very much eager to see how the war for democracy ends.
CF \|
CF \| Your bedroom's still dark; your blinds are closed, so it's a given.
CF \| Even if it's dark, you still see some of the outline of your stuff.
CF \| Like your desk, dresser, and the mirror. None of those matter though:
CF \| aside from the annoying piece of garbage at your bedside.
CF \|
CF \| Your phone is at your side: emitting the devil's music.

CF \| >Before you can do anything, the door suddenly slams openas if someone
CF \| kicked it open like a wanna-be-badass. Then, a person enters your room,
CF \| frantically crying, "LIAM! WE HAVE A PROBLEM!"
CF \|
CF \| The person stops by the foot of your bed. You squint, but can't make
CF \| out the idiot storming your room.
CF \|
CF \| "The hell!? Why the hell is it so dark!?" The intruder marches down to
CF \| your blinds and grabs hold.
CF \|
CF \| 1) Wait! Don't
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Wait! Don't]
CF \|
CF \| "Wait! Don-," You try to scream, but their hands are too fast. The man
CF \| cracks open your curtains: letting in the fresh, morning light.
CF \|
CF \| "AHHHHHHH it burns!!!" You hiss, covering your face with your blanket
CF \| like Dracula. "Hey! Get up!" The guy yells and grabs your arms, prying
CF \| you away from your comfy bed. He holds you by the window, the sun's
CF \| rays hitting your face.
CF \|
CF \| "Liam! Wake up!" He says while slapping you awake. Your eyes slowly
CF \| adjust to the newfound light andafter a few moments you're able to
CF \| open your eyes.
CF \|
CF \| You can now see the face of the man who ruined your perfect morning
CF \| routine.
CF \|
CF \| 1) Oh no
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Oh no]
CF \|
CF \| "Oh no," You wish you were still asleep. Maybe this is a dream. Heck, a
CF \| nightmare would be more accurate. On second thought, a nightmare would
CF \| be better than this.
CF \|
CF \| You close your eyes, say a little prayer, then open them, but it wasn't
CF \| a dream or a nightmareit was hima guy anyone wouldn't want to see in
CF \| the morning. In fact: no one would probably want to see him at noon or
CF \| midnight.
CF \|
CF \| Toby Klimas. A self-proclaimed, "Pilgrim of justice" or whatever he
CF \| called himself. Your sort-of friend, or partner as he might call you.
CF \|
CF \| "Huh? Why aren't you speaking?" Toby asked, still grabbing you.
CF \|
CF \| Then, out of nowhere, his mouth begins to curl into a grin. "Are you
CF \| giving me an introduction?"
CF \|
CF \| 1) What do you want?
CF \| 2) What are talking about?
CF \| 3) Actually, yes.
CF \|		DavidW asks, "How should we answer him?"
		MoyTW asks, "2?"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "2"
CF \| >[What are talking about?]
CF \|
CF \| "What are you even talking about?" You don't have a clue what he's
CF \| going on about, which is usually the default if being perfectly honest.
CF \|
CF \| "Are you sure?" Toby persisted, now showing his pearly whites.
CF \|
CF \| 1) No!
CF \| 2) Actually, yes.
CF \|		DavidW asks, "2?"
		Jacqueline says, "sure"
		MoyTW asks, "Sure let's do the tutorial?"
		DavidW says, "2"
		Knight_Otu says, "I guess? Toby kind of lost me."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "2"
CF \| >[Actually, yes.]
CF \|
CF \| Actually, yes," You confess.
CF \|
CF \| Toby gives you an ear-to-ear grin, "Really!? What have you told them so
CF \| far?" He grabs your shirt and brings your face closer to his.
CF \|
CF \| "Have you told them about my heroic conquest on the blue-lake legend or
CF \| maybe the secret of veggie-town?" His eyes are gleaming with
CF \| excitement.
CF \|
CF \| 1) That people would rather wake up to Freddy Krueger than to you.
CF \|		Jacqueline says, "Oh man."
		Knight_Otu says, "Oh."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[That people would rather wake up to Freddy Krueger than to you.]
CF \|
CF \| "That people would rather wake up to Freddy Krueger than to you." You
CF \| say with a straight face. Toby looks at you for a moment, as if he's
CF \| processing what you just said, like how the internet buffers a video.
CF \| You can almost see the spinning wheel across his face.
CF \|
CF \| Toby then bursts into laughter, "HAHAHAHA! Good one Liam," He let go of
CF \| you and starts clapping, "Good one! HAHAHA, no one can match your wit,
CF \| Liam," He began to slap his knee.
CF \|
CF \| He's overdoing it, you thought. Usually, when you're able to one-up
CF \| him, Toby goes into full "Defensive, Aggressive,
CF \| Surprisingly-excessive," bouts of crocodile laughs. "Did you came up
CF \| with that on the spot or did some hack wannabe-author write that crap
CF \| for you?" Toby's going into phase 2Passive-aggressive-mostly
CF \| aggressive comebacks.
CF \|
CF \| 1) Finejust tell me why you're here.
CF \|		Jacqueline says, "I'm not sure I've seen another game do this. Kinda fun, but also I'm kind of grinning and rolling my eyes in a 'really?' sort of way. But..."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Finejust tell me why you're here.]
CF \|
CF \| You let out a defeated sigh. "Finejust tell me why you're here." You
CF \| say, after giving up on trying to win against his stubbornalmost
CF \| inhumanpersistence at continuing pointless things.
CF \|
CF \| "Right, right," Toby said, clearing his throat. "It's probably best to
CF \| get straight to the point!" He thrusts a finger at you. "Liam! I
CF \| request your assistance!"
CF \|
CF \| 1) Did you lose your keys again?
CF \| 2) Did the cat get out again?
CF \|		DavidW says, "keys or cat"
		Knight_Otu says, "1. I want the cat to be safe."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Did you lose your keys again?]
CF \|
CF \| "Did you lose your keys again?" You ask.
CF \|
CF \| "Hey! Why are you going back there!" Toby objects. "Well, it was the
CF \| last problem you roped me in. When was it? Last month?" You try to
CF \| remember. It was quite the issue he dragged you in. You could still
CF \| feel the rope burns. "No, no, no! I made sure to double secure those
CF \| suckers up!" He nods his head: imagining himself patting his own back
CF \| rather actually than doing it.
CF \|
CF \| That's what you can tellat least. Toby scratches his head, "It's more
CF \| pressing than anything I've ever done before!" He said, glaring at you.
CF \|
CF \| 1) Then what is it, Toby?
CF \|		MoyTW asks, "Keys?"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Then what is it, Toby?]
CF \|
CF \| "Then what is it, Toby?" You ask, mumbling to yourself why he took so
CF \| long to get to the point. Toby suddenly points his finger at you again.
CF \|
CF \| "Stop calling me by that name!" He demands. "Call me by my
CF \| business-name: Drake Dexter." Oh rightnow you remember. Toby despises
CF \| his name for some reason; he chose to go by an alias to do whatever. An
CF \| unholy combination of two of his favorite shows: a bloody crime show,
CF \| and a Disney sitcom. You've only watched the first 4 seasons of the
CF \| former, which has become mandatory at this point.
CF \|
CF \| "It's a name for professional purposes, dammit!" Toby says, clenching
CF \| his fist.
CF \|
CF \| 1) Okay, Drake, what the hell happened?
CF \|		Jacqueline says, "I'm wondering if those missing spaces are a hyphen that's not printing."
		Jacqueline says, "Specifically, an em-dash."
		DavidW says, "probably"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Okay, Drake, what the hell happened?]
CF \|
CF \| "Okay, Drake, what the hell happened?"
CF \|
CF \| Toby turns away from you, and faces your window. He mumbles
CF \| incoherently to himself, leaving you only with a guy who looks like
CF \| he's talking to a glass pane. From what you could pick up: you can hear
CF \| the words: justice; law; eggs; milk; bacon; cereal; bre- wait a second.
CF \|
CF \| He suddenly spins around and looks you straight in the eyes and says,
CF \| "To summarize, they took Billy hostage." And with that: Toby bolts for
CF \| the door.
CF \|
CF \| 1) Hey! Who's THEY?
CF \|		Knight_Otu says, "They are."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Hey! Who's THEY?]
CF \|
CF \| "Hey! Who's THEY?" You want to know before he makes it out of your
CF \| room. But he is already gone by that point. Then, his head pops-out the
CF \| side of the door and utters for no more than a split second.
CF \|
CF \| "I'll explain everything later. Just meet me outside at your driveway."
CF \| And off he goes, leaving you in your bedroomalone. You breathe out a
CF \| heavy sigh, "Might as well get this over with." You say, as you change
CF \| out of your pajamas. While putting on your regular clothes, one thought
CF \| keeps probing your mind.
CF \|
CF \| What am I getting myself into this time?

CF \|
CF \| The room's lit by the window, from having the The curtains forcibly

CF \|		DavidW says, "oh my, we have a The dresser"
		MoyTW asks, "...are all items The X? That a parser thing that's getting weird?"
		Knight_Otu says, "Ah, the dangers of using substitutions."
		DavidW says (to MoyTW), "I've never seen this error before."
		Jacqueline asks, "It's probably just a typo, right? A double the? Like, 'The the dresser is in the Bedroom.'?"
		MoyTW says, "It happens with all the objects."
		DavidW says, "Except full-body The mirror suggests something more fundamental is going on."
		Knight_Otu says, "They're probably called The Furniture in code, and the author then typed "The [objectname]"."
		Jacqueline says, "Oh, the mirror."
		MoyTW says, "the The curtains, The The dresser, The mirror"
		Jacqueline says, "Yeah."
		Jacqueline says, "I'm seeing it now."

CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x mirror"
CF \| >It's one of those oval-shaped mirrors. It's in wood, well, fake wood.
CF \| Now that your mind's on mirrors, it's a fact that bedrooms are
CF \| incomplete without mirrors. People underestimate the importance of
CF \| mirrors in bedrooms too much. Mirrors matter dangit!
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x dresser"
CF \| >Not much of a dresser. More like a wooden chest that's filled with
CF \| clothes then gold.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "i"
CF \| >You are carrying:
CF \| your phone
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x phone"
CF \| >It's four generations behind, but still usable. Don't get why people
CF \| buy newer versions every year. A too-good economy?
CF \|
Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x the"
CF \| >You look around and shrug.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x desk"
CF \| >A standard store-bought desk. Not as battle-damaged as your brother's,
CF \| but still has marks and scratches. At least it has a drawer.
CF \|		Jacqueline says, "Fun fact: there is no mirror in my bedroom."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "open drawer"
CF \| >You open the drawer, revealing a pile of junk.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x junk"
CF \| >God! When was this last cleaned!? A year ago? Two? Scraps of paper;
CF \| pens; bundles of cords and even watches?? Nothing useful.
CF \|
CF \| Wait. There's a screwdriver here.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "take screwdriver"
CF \| >Taken.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x screwdriver"
CF \| >It's the perfect screwdriver. It's not too big that it becomes a
CF \| swordfight with a screw, but not too small that it's like doing screw
CF \| surgery with a toothpick.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x laptop"
CF \| >This model is old. Enough to warrant its retirement, but for some
CF \| reason, you can't seem to get rid of it. And you've tried. You've been
CF \| fixing it for a nice change of pace: unscrewing some panels, realizing
CF \| you don't know what you're doing, and putting the panels back on.
CF \|
CF \| Your laptop is currently switched off.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "unscrew laptop"
CF \| >When will you learn your lesson?
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "turn on laptop"
CF \| >Ok, and after turning it onBOOMit's suddenly midnight. It's an
CF \| addiction that results in wasted days.
CF \|		Knight_Otu exclaims, "Never!"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "undo"
CF \| >Bedroom
CF \| [Previous turn undone.]
CF \|		Jacqueline asks, "Think it really did advance time?"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x curtains"
CF \| >Nothing fancy. They help keep out the light, especially during the
CF \| morning.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "close curtains"
CF \| >Seems pointless nowyou having been exposed to the outside's
CF \| eye-burning wrath.
CF \|		Knight_Otu says, "Better save than sorry."
		DavidW asks, "maybe?"
		Jacqueline says (to KO), "ha"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "take laptop"
CF \| >It's too bulky for you to carry.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x chair"
CF \| >If chairs could breatheand sitting on it cuts its airflowyou'd be
CF \| jail for chair genocide.
CF \|		Jacqueline says, "I relate heavily with the desire to lie in, lucid dream, and never open curtains. I've been addicted to blackout curtains since Alaska. Everyone should have them, no matter their latitude."
		DavidW says, "Poor chair, the butt of the joke again."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x bed"
CF \| >Wanna escape the horrors of the world? Hop in!
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "look under bed"
CF \| >It's the dead body of the guy that owns the house.		Roger says, "yeah I like sleeping in photographic-darkroom-quality darkness"
		Knight_Otu says, "Hah."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x body"
CF \| Fooled ya!
CF \|		DavidW asks, "So out/north?"
		MoyTW asks, "x me?"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x me"
CF \| >As good-looking as everis what you want to say, but the truth is just
CF \| average-looking as ever.
CF \|		Jacqueline says, "The thing I love--I think I love most--about the ommitted em-dashes? They help draw your brain--really draw its attention--to the intense frequency of the em-dashes--and that is another way in which I relate to this author--because I am a huge fan of em-dashes."
		Jacqueline says, "(All joking aside, I do adore em-dashes.)"
		MoyTW says, "There are way too many of them here. Anyways, let's gooooo"
		DavidW says, "I like em-dashes, but they're to be used sparingly."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "n"
CF \| >
CF \| Hallway
CF \| You won't go out of your way to say that the hallway is small. Though,
CF \| if you face westwhere your parents' room liesstand perfectly in the
CF \| middle, and stretch both your arms they'll likely be able to touch both
CF \| walls. But it doesn't bother you too much. Nothing much else, aside
CF \| from your brother's and sister's rooms; the forbidden worlds is what
CF \| you like to call them.
CF \|
CF \| Some stairs lead down to the living room.
CF \|		Jacqueline says, "Nah."
		olethros asks, "isn't taht en en-dash?"
		Jacqueline says, "They're like sprinkles on ice cream."
		Roger says, "my client isn't rendering them at all, so it looks just fine here"
		DavidW asks, "down?"
		Knight_Otu says, "Sure."
		Jacqueline says (to olethros), "Well, in my em-dash addiction, no: because en-dashes are imperceptible. They just look like hyphens. And what we need more of is great big ol' em-dashes."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "d"

CF \| Living Room
CF \| The living room is pretty spacious: lots of room to walk around. It
CF \| helps that your family doesn't have too many things from the start. The
CF \| television is up against the wall, while being crowded by various
CF \| furniture, family-style. For what they're worth, some paintings color
CF \| the pale walls. The kitchen is just to your west, while the dining room
CF \| is to the east. A few feet north is the front door.
CF \|
CF \| The stairs lead up to the hallway.
CF \|
CF \| On the coffee table are dad's key and mom's key.
CF \|
CF \| Your mom is also heresitting on the couch.
CF \|		Jacqueline is possibly willing to die on Em-Dash Hill.
		olethros says, "ah, confused just because in latex -- is en-dash and --- is em-dash"
		Jacqueline exclaims, "Oh! Good to know --- thanks!"
		MoyTW asks, "x paintings?"
		Jacqueline says, "(Sorry, y'all. I'll stop now.)"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x paintings"
CF \| >You're using the term painting quite loosely: They're actually
CF \| pictures stuck on some plate or canvas then hung on the wall, not even
CF \| any filters or anything.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x mom"
CF \| >One of the two people you respect the most. She worked hard and raised
CF \| you and your siblings with love and care; you can't thank her enough
CF \| for it. But, she tends to overreact at things to an unrealistic degree.
CF \| You remember one time the power went out, and your momno jokedrove to
CF \| the electric company which was in the city! It's ridiculous, but you
CF \| love her.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x mom's key"
CF \| >The key to your mom's barely-used carbut why is it here though. Your
CF \| mom doesn't use her car.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x dad's key"
CF \| >The key to your dad's car; for why it's here, you have no clue.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x tv"
CF \| >Even in the modern age, your family still runs a satellite for the TV.
CF \| To add more old school charm, the TV is still wide enough to place
CF \| decorations on top of it.
CF \|
CF \| It's currently on to your mom's usual programa romantic-crime drama
CF \| that's been for running 8-years now.
CF \|		Knight_Otu asks, "Didn't we just hear about mom driving to the city?"
		Jacqueline asks, "Oh, from that guy?"
		DavidW says, "That was a story when the power went out."
		Jacqueline says, "I almost forgot about that guy."
		Jacqueline asks, "Remember that guy? Are we supposed to have a sense of urgency?"
		DavidW asks, "who, Tony slash Drake?"
		Jacqueline says, "Yeah"
		Jacqueline asks, "Or was that just a dream?"
		Knight_Otu asks, "And the kidnapped... Billy?"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "talk to mom"
CF \| >Morning, sweetie.
CF \|
CF \| 1) Morning
CF \| 2) What episode is that
CF \| 3) Bye, Mom
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Morning]
CF \|
CF \| "Morning."
CF \|
CF \| "You're up early." your mom says: not looking away from the TV. "Just
CF \| had a loud alarm," you say, emphasizing the loud in the sentence.
CF \|
CF \| "Oh, it's Toby isn't it." She gives a light chuckle.
CF \|
CF \| 1) What episode is that
CF \| 2) Bye, Mom
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[What episode is that]
CF \|
CF \| "What episode is that?"
CF \|
CF \| It's a good one, but I can't tell you." Your mom smirks, "Spoilers."
CF \| You shake your head, "It's fine, not my thing."
CF \|
CF \| 1) Bye, Mom
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Bye, Mom]
CF \|
CF \| "Bye, Mom"

		DavidW asks, "Should we take the keys? Visit the kitchen?"
		DavidW asks, "Or dining room?"
		Knight_Otu asks, "Are we even old enough to drive?"
		DavidW says, "I have no idea."
		Knight_Otu says, "Kitchen I'd say."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "w"
CF \| >
CF \| Kitchen
CF \| While, technically, not a separate room, it's very much a place with
CF \| purpose. The kitchen looks and feels small, but quite efficient in its
CF \| tightness. The triplets in cooking: the counter with cupboards above
CF \| and below; the sink; a stove greets whoever enters. Opposite them; the
CF \| fridge, all by itself, in the corner.
CF \|		Jacqueline says, "Let's not be held back by a society who tells us we're too young."
		DavidW asks, "Mind if I just ransack the kitchen?"
		DavidW says, "Might be a ham sandwich or two."
		Jacqueline says, "Go for it."
		Knight_Otu asks, "Fine, then - do we have any driving training?"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x fridge"
CF \| >All the fridges you've seen are white. Are there any other colored
CF \| fridges?
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "open it"
CF \| >The inside of it is like a jigsaw or an intense game of Tetris, with
CF \| all the containers inside. Better to not open it, since you aren't good
CF \| at Tetris.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x cupboards"
CF \| >It's the wooden kind.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "open cupboards"
CF \| >You aren't hungry at the moment.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x counter"
CF \| >The counter's only busy three times a daylooks like you missed its
CF \| morning shift.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x sink"
CF \| >Your mom always wants the sink to be free from those white smudges. So
CF \| you've been tasked with cleaning after every use.
CF \|		Jacqueline asks, "Ha! Did you all see that video on twitter about the livestream fridge?"

CF \| road. Now, this situation is strange. When was the last time Toby
CF \| wanted to ask you something? Actually, scratch that, He does ask you
CF \| about random stuff.
CF \|
CF \| 1) What is it
CF \| 2) Don't want to hear it
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[What is it]
CF \|
CF \| "What is it?" You ask.
CF \|
CF \| "It's- well," Toby is hesitating. Okay. Either it's completely severe,
CF \| or utterly stupid. Knowing Toby; well.
CF \|
CF \| 1) Shoot
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Shoot]
CF \|
CF \| "Shoot."
CF \|
CF \| "Do people usually relay their thoughts in second person?" Toby's voice
CF \| was filled with genuine curiosity, but you...almost fell. Seriously, If
CF \| you weren't wearing your seatbelt, you might have fallencomedy-style.
CF \|
CF \| "I mean, I get dreams, but thoughts? Play-by-play? Who does that?"
CF \|
CF \| 1) What are you even talking about
CF \| 2) Normal people
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[What are you even talking about]
CF \|
CF \| "What are you even talking about?" You have no idea.
CF \|
CF \| "Well, it's like- I mean...nevermind." Toby, seemingly giving up on the
CF \| topic, continued to drive.
CF \|
CF \| Driving (in the front seat)
CF \| The interior design of the car is nothing mind-blowing. It's just like
CF \| any other car you've ridden in before. One note worth pointing out;
CF \| there's no backseat. Only the two up frontwhere your and Toby's butts
CF \| are planted on.
CF \|
CF \| Toby is to your side, driving.
CF \|		Jacqueline passes around some drugs so that everyone can enjoy the game as much as the PC and NPC.
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x glove compartment"
CF \| >It ain't a car if it doesn't have one of those. Thank heavens it does.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "open it"
CF \| >You open the glove box.
CF \|
CF \| "Welp, we're here." Toby stops the car without any hesitation; opens
CF \| the door and leaves. Not even a word.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "look in glove box"
CF \| >the glove box is empty.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "out"
CF \| >(First taking off seatbelt)
CF \| Parking lot
CF \| Empty. Sweet and simple. This place is as empty as a TNA house show. No
CF \| other cars in sight. To the east is what looks like a convenience
CF \| store. And a Toy "N" Toyz branch to your west.
CF \|
CF \| Toby is standing here, waiting.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "talk to toby"
CF \| >What's up?
CF \|
CF \| 1) Okay, what now
CF \| 2) See ya
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Okay, what now]
CF \|
CF \| "Okay, what now?" You ask, "We're here, parked between a toy store and
CF \| a convenience store, what are you even planning?"
CF \|
CF \| Toby wasn't facing you when you were talking. Instead, he was looking
CF \| over at the convenience store. Maybe he's thinking? About what; you
CF \| have no clue. He finally looks over to you.
CF \|
CF \| "Here's the plan: you go over to the toy store and grab a stuffed
CF \| unicornbe sure it's pink." You lost him at stuffed unicorn, but Toby
CF \| continues, "I'll head over to the convenience store and grab the rest
CF \| of the goods. Sound good? Great, let's go." Toby began to march towards
CF \| the convenience store.
CF \|
CF \| 1) Wha-hey wait
CF \|		MoyTW says, "Why do we even care."
		Knight_Otu says, "Wha is right."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Wha-hey wait]
CF \|
CF \| "Wha-hey wait!" You shout. What the hell was that? He dragged you
CF \| out-a-bed; He indirectly made you do self-inflicted property damage,
CF \| and now he's ordering you to buy a stuffed pony. Just like that!?
CF \|
CF \| Toby turns around, "Oh right." He takes something out of this pocket
CF \| and tosses it; with no effort at all, it lands into your hands. "Use
CF \| that. And don't forget, Pink!" Toby then sprints off. Dammit.
CF \|
CF \| Parking lot
CF \| Empty. Sweet and simple. This place is as empty as a TNA house show. No
CF \| other cars in sight. To the east is what looks like a convenience
CF \| store. And a Toy "N" Toyz branch to your west.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "i"
CF \| >You are carrying:
CF \| the Toys "N" Toyz gift card
CF \| the screwdriver
CF \| your phone
CF \|
Peregrine has arrived.
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x card"
CF \| >A Toys'N" Toyz gift card worth ten bucks. At least you won't be
CF \| wasting actual money.
CF \|		Knight_Otu asks, "Do we even have actual money on us?"
		DavidW says, "well, I guess we're buying a pink unicorn."
		DavidW says, "He gave us a gift card."
		Knight_Otu says, "That's why I'm asking."
		DavidW says, "I don't think we have actual money, no."
		DavidW says, "If we do, it's in our actual clothes."
		Knight_Otu says, "I guess our phone may have a payment app or something."
		Jacqueline says, "I am sorry, author. There are redeeming aspects to this game, but I'm mostly hanging with it because my friends are playing it with me and they have a dogged determination to find where it leads."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "n"
CF \| >The obvious exits are east and west.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "w"
CF \| >
CF \| Outside Toys "N" Toyz
CF \| It's a nice building if you discount the signs of poor condition. The
CF \| large logo is missing the "N"; no hint of it getting fixedbit sad.
CF \| Rust and grime stuck to the walls fuel your one-sentence review.
CF \| Further west is the entrance.
CF \|		DavidW says, "oo, a SAD Toy store."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "w"
CF \| >
CF \| Inside Toys "N" Toyz
CF \| You and your friends call this the place "Toys "N" Producez". Since the
CF \| store is arranged like a grocery. It has aisles that remind you of the
CF \| local PureMarkets. Yeah. The first aisle and second aisle are to you
CF \| west and northwest respectively. Going further north is the rest of the
CF \| store.
CF \|
CF \| A store counter is here.
CF \|
CF \| A brunette cashier stands behind the counter, glancing at you then
CF \| looking away.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x cashier"
CF \| >She's surprisingly tall. If she'd stand on her toes: you'll easily be
CF \| eclipsed. Not a thought that delights you, but hey, you'll get some
CF \| shade. She's wearing the standard Toys "N" Toyz uniform.
CF \|		Peregrine says, ">BARTER CLOTHES FOR PINK UNICORN"
		Jacqueline says, "I think I just found my IFDB review."
		Jacqueline \| Rust and grime stuck to the walls fuel your one-sentence review.
		Jacqueline says, "(Kidding. It's not that bad.)"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "talk to cashier"
CF \| >She looks up to you, "Hi Liam!" She says, giving a little wave. "Can I
CF \| help you?"
CF \|
CF \| 1) Wait, how'd you know my name?
CF \| 2) Do you guys have a stuffed pink unicorn
CF \| 3) See you around
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Wait, how'd you know my name?]
CF \|
CF \| "Wait, how'd you know my name?" Was she a neighbor? Did you have that
CF \| type of amnesia where you forget just your identity, but now it's only
CF \| her!?
CF \|
CF \| She looks at you for a second, then giggles a bit, "You are one for
CF \| jokes. Aren't you, Liam?"
CF \|
CF \| 1) Confess you don't know her
CF \|		Jacqueline says, "But I do lack motivation other than a sense of Why Do We Climb This Mountain or Solve This Puzzle? Because It Is There."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Confess you don't know her]
CF \|
CF \| "I really can't remember you." It was better to confess, you thought.
CF \| Better than living the life of a con man. The girl's eyes go wide,
CF \| followed by an exaggerated BBWWHHAAA.
CF \|
CF \| "You forgot? You freakin' forgot about me!?" She slams the counter; You
CF \| thought there was going to be an earthquake for a second. Crap, You
CF \| might have pissed off a demon lord! The girlseeing that she's causing
CF \| a scenetakes a deep breath and sighs. "Right, I forgot," She begins
CF \| massaging her forehead, "My brother told me you had a bad memory,
CF \| once." She knows that? That you have such a bad memory; you'd even
CF \| forget your date of birth! The girl crosses her arms and looks to be in
CF \| deep thought, she then spoke, "It's been a long time since we last met,
CF \| so it's no surprise." She began tapping her finger on her arm.
CF \|
CF \| "Ok! I'll do a reintroduction, then." She proceeds to slap her cheeks
CF \| with both her hands, a gesture you never considered when introducing
CF \| yourself. It could be fun. "Here we go, my name's Tracy Valcure. You
CF \| use to come over to our house to hang out with my brother when I was a
CF \| kid." You search your memories, and you still can't remember anything.
CF \| You chastise yourself. "You don't need to introduce yourself, I still
CF \| know you," Tracy scratches her head while looking down. You can't help
CF \| but feel like she's hurt a little. You should make it up to her some
CF \| timewhen you aren't getting dragged by Toby.
CF \|
CF \| 1) Do you guys have a stuffed pink unicorn
CF \| 2) See you around
CF \|		Jacqueline asks, "1?"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Do you guys have a stuffed pink unicorn]
CF \|
CF \| "Do you guys have a stuffed pink unicorn?" After asking, you realize
CF \| how weird it looks for an almost adult guy to that. You know what? It
CF \| isn't strange! You shout out loudmentally.
CF \|
CF \| Tracy doesn't bat an eye, "that would be in aisle 3. The one with the
CF \| stuffed animals."
CF \|
CF \| "Oh, thanks."
CF \|
CF \| 1) See you around
CF \|		Knight_Otu says, "Sure."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[See you around]
CF \|
CF \| "See you around," You bid goodbye.
CF \|
CF \| "Right back at you."

DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "n"

CF \| Further inside Toys "N" Toyz
CF \| The back of the store has all sorts of design delights. Too bad you
CF \| aren't interested in describing any. The only notable thing is the big
CF \| Super Tofu Dude statue at the corner. Aisle 3 is to your west; the last
CF \| aisle is northwest.
CF \|		Peregrine says, ""The girlseeing that she's causing a scenetakes..." hmm, the writer seems to have spaced out"
		Knight_Otu says, "They' em-dashes gone missing."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x dude"

CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "w"
CF \| >
CF \| Aisle 3
CF \| For some reason, there's a separate section for stuffed animals. It's
CF \| not just this store. Other stores have them. Both gondolas are spilling
CF \| stuffed animals; some look too large for the shelf sizes.
CF \|
CF \| A little girl checks the animals. A basket is next to her.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x animals"
CF \| >A stuffed animal zoo. All kinds of animals are in here. Alligators,
CF \| Elephants, Zebras, and bears etc.
CF \|
CF \| You blink your eyes a couple of times. Where is the unicorn!? You might
CF \| be panicking. They have a platypus for goodness sakes! Where is it?
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x basket"
CF \| >A standard shopping basket. No logo or trademark stamps or anything.
CF \| Is this even from the store?
CF \|
CF \| In the basket is the pink unicorn.
CF \|		MoyTW says, "Girl has it in basket."
		MoyTW says, "lol"
		Peregrine says, "My scenetake: she caused a lot of girlseeing."
		DavidW asks, "So we need to steal from the girl?"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x girl"
CF \| >She's pretty small, so much so, she's only reaching the second shelf
CF \| on the gondola. The girl looks over the stuffed animals.
CF \|		MoyTW says, "Apparently."
		Jacqueline says, "noooooo"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x gondola"
CF \| >They arein factcalled gondolas. The shelves most store aisles have.
CF \| Same name as those Venice taxis. Yeah. The ones couples use for some

CF \| 3) Farewell
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Hellosmall child]
CF \|
CF \| "Hellosmall child." Yup, you still got that awkward mode when around
CF \| children. The little girl looks up at you, her large blue eyes staring,
CF \| "I'm not supposed to talk to strangers."
CF \|
CF \| 1) Smart, you're smart. A first-born child for sure
CF \| 2) Why I don't I introduce myself
CF \|		Peregrine says, "Stop factcalling her"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "2"
CF \| >[Why I don't I introduce myself]
CF \|
CF \| Why I don't I introduce myself?" The little girl tilts her head, "Oh!"
CF \| Heh, looks like she realized it, loophole baby! "That's not a bad idea,
CF \| Ok, you do it." She nods her head in approval.
CF \|
CF \| 1) Introduce yourself
CF \| 2) Hey, kid, can i have that pink unicorn
CF \| 3) Farewell
CF \|		Knight_Otu says, "From vandalism to stealing a car to stealing toys from little kids..."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Introduce yourself]
CF \|
CF \| You clear your throat, "The name's Liam. Nice to meet you, little
CF \| girl." You thrust your hand forward for a handshake. She hesitates a
CF \| little, but takes your hand anyways. Man, her hand is tiny. "Nice to
CF \| meet you, mister," She says in an adorable voice, it almost melts your
CF \| heart. Almost. You're still getting rid of some leftover teen angst.
CF \|
CF \| 1) Where's your parents
CF \| 2) You like stuffed animals
CF \| 3) Hey, kid, can i have that pink unicorn
CF \| 4) Farewell
CF \|		Jacqueline says (to KO), "With little motivation beyond Toby."
		Jacqueline says, "And we hate Toby."
		Peregrine exclaims, "Twist: Toby isn't real!"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "2"
CF \| >[You like stuffed animals]
CF \|
CF \| "You like stuffed animals?"
CF \|
CF \| "Not particularly," she pokes an elephant in the eye. "Then why are you
CF \| here?" "My sister's the one who wants them-" Ah, so the sister's the
CF \| one addicted to cute things. "-for training dummies," she proceeds to
CF \| squish a bear's head to its torso. If you could've done a spit take
CF \| right nowclean up at aisle 3.
CF \|
CF \| 1) Where's your parents
CF \| 2) Hey, kid, can i have that pink unicorn
CF \| 3) Farewell
CF \|		MoyTW says, "Toby is not great."
		Jacqueline says, "Most of us do. David hasn't decided to hate Toby yet for some reason."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Where's your parents]
CF \|
CF \| "Where's your parents?" Is this place like a new hot spot for child
CF \| abandonment? Oh, man. You hope you aren't right.
CF \|
CF \| The girl puts a finger to her chin, "Daddy's at work, and Mommy went to
CF \| buy something outside."
CF \|
CF \| "Yeah, but, on your own?" She lifts her arm and pats her bicep, "No
CF \| worries, I'm a strong independent girl." And you'll leave it at that.
CF \| Whatever family she has, you'll only find headache and strong women.
CF \|
CF \| 1) Hey, kid, can i have that pink unicorn
CF \| 2) Farewell
CF \|		Peregrine says, "Toby or not Toby, that is the question"
		Knight_Otu says (to Peregrine), "That might be the case."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Hey, kid, can i have that pink unicorn]
CF \|
CF \| "Hey, kid, can I have that pink unicorn?" That was harder to ask than
CF \| anything in your life, ever. The little girl eyes the pink unicorn she
CF \| has imprisoned. She looks up at you, then down again. It repeats for a
CF \| few moments, but you could feel it. The moment her gaze returns to you,
CF \| she's wearing a smug smile. No. A wicked smile.
CF \|
CF \| "Yeah, sure." Wait, she's allowing it? Alright. You reach down to grab
CF \| the unicorn, when the little girl slaps your hand away. "First, Bring
CF \| me a Power Protector Red figure." Oh great, life can't be simple, can
CF \| it?
CF \|
CF \| "You like the show?". The little girl's face turns serious, "yes. I
CF \| love that show." Well, there you go.
CF \|
CF \| 1) Farewell
CF \|		Jacqueline says, "It's not even a question for me."
		MoyTW says, "You know, between the fact that Mom trusts us with nothing, we completely forgot about that girl at the counter, and Toby is insane...I could see that."
		DavidW says, "oh good, we can trade. We need a Power Protector Red."
		Jacqueline groans.
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "e"
CF \| >Think in numbers, not in words. - A Math teacher, probably.
CF \|		Peregrine asks, "Not a Red Power Protector?"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"

CF \| "Hey, ah, you guys have any more pink unicorns in stock?"
CF \|
CF \| Tracy purses her lips, "no, all the stuffed toys are in aisle 3," she
CF \| rubs her chin, "did they sell out, are they that popular?". You shrug
CF \| your shoulders, "i don't know, but you guys don't have one, like, at
CF \| the back?" Tracy shakes her head, "Sorry, all we keep here are small
CF \| stuff, like this cool pen with a map." She pulls out said pen. Was it

CF \|
CF \| 1) What else you got under there
CF \| 2) See you around
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[What else you got under there]
CF \|

CF \| You recover. "Sorry," she leans on the counter, "only I have the
CF \| counter leaning rights." Tracy gives you a mischievous smile, or a
CF \| smile of dominancewhatever floats your boat.
CF \|
CF \| "Ok, Miss Employee of the month, but you got anything else?". Tracy
CF \| goes down and checks. "Well, there isn't much, some erasers?" She pulls
CF \| up some bunny-shaped erasers. "No, anything else?" Tracy continues to
CF \| check. "Here, Herbs-vs-Aliens tokens, they're popular right now!" She
CF \| gets up and puts the token on the counter. You knit your brows, "Mmm,
CF \| maybe, something helpful?" Tracy crosses her arms, thinking. She looks
CF \| over to the kid on aisle 1. Then, she has a eureka moment. You could
CF \| almost see the light bulb atop her head. She pulls something from below
CF \| the counter, "This is what you'll need."
CF \|

CF \| "See you around," You bid goodbye.
CF \|
CF \| "Right back at you."
CF \|
CF \| Inside Toys "N" Toyz
CF \| You and your friends call this the place "Toys "N" Producez". Since the
CF \| store is arranged like a grocery. It has aisles that remind you of the
CF \| local PureMarkets. Yeah. The first aisle and second aisle are to you
CF \| west and northwest respectively. Going further north is the rest of the
CF \| store.
CF \|
CF \| A store counter is here.
CF \|
CF \| On the store counter is the paper bag (closed).
CF \|
CF \| Tracy stands behind the counter, whistling a tune.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "take bag"
CF \| >Taken.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "open bag"
CF \| >You don't want to; the staples are a pain.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x bag"
CF \| >A normal paper bag.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "i"
CF \| >You are carrying:
CF \| the paper bag (closed)
CF \| a dig "n" build sticker
CF \| the screwdriver
CF \| your phone

CF \| Outside Toys "N" Toyz
CF \| It's a nice building if you discount the signs of poor condition. The
CF \| large logo is missing the "N"; no hint of it getting fixedbit sad.
CF \| Rust and grime stuck to the walls fuel your one-sentence review.
CF \| Further west is the entrance.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "e"
CF \| >
CF \| Parking lot
CF \| Empty. Sweet and simple. This place is as empty as a TNA house show. No
CF \| other cars in sight. To the east is what looks like a convenience
CF \| store. And a Toy "N" Toyz branch to your west.
CF \|
CF \| You can see Toby leaning against the hood of the car, slurping a
CF \| slushie.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "SAVE"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "cf2"
CF \| >Enter saved game to store: Ok.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "talk to toby"

CF \| 3) See ya
CF \|		MoyTW says, "throw bag at Toby"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "2"
CF \| >[Got the unicorn]
CF \|
CF \| "Got the unicorn," You dangle the paper bag in front of Toby. He takes
CF \| a hard sip on the slushie. "Yeah, got mine too," He mimics you by
CF \| swinging the plastic bag he's carrying.
CF \|
CF \| "What did you even get?" Judging from the size, looks like a box of
CF \| something. "It's the second ingredient for the ritual we're doing." He
CF \| hops from the hood, and goes in the car. You can't make any sense on
CF \| what he said, but might as well follow suit.
CF \|
CF \| 1) Follow

DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"

CF \|
CF \| Driving (in the front seat)
CF \| The interior design of the car is nothing mind-blowing. It's just like
CF \| any other car you've ridden in before. One note worth pointing out;
CF \| there's no backseat. Only the two up frontwhere your and Toby's butts
CF \| are planted on.
CF \|
CF \| Toby is to your side, driving.
CF \|		Knight_Otu blinks.

CF \|
CF \| Toby is to your side, driving.
CF \|
CF \| "Hey Liam, this will be a pretty long ride." You look at Toby, "ok,
CF \| what's wrong with that?"
CF \|
CF \| "Oh, nothing, nothing's wrong with it. You and I aren't affected by
CF \| long-distance driving, but it is bad for the audience." You are now
CF \| looking at Toby like one of those lunatics in an asylum. "It's unfair
CF \| for the people to wait for how many turns before the plot continues."
CF \|
CF \| Toby snaps his fingers, "That's why I'm planning to tell the story on
CF \| what happened." You can't believe your ears. He's finally going to tell
CF \| you why! "But first, I'll be needing that."
CF \|
CF \| "The what?" "Your title of PC, of course!"
CF \|
CF \| 1) Wha-
CF \|		MoyTW says, "Toby is DEFINITELY a figment of our imagination."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Wha-]
CF \|
CF \|
CF \|
CF \|
CF \|
CF \|
CF \|
CF \|
CF \| Yoink. Ok, so how do you put it on. Does it clip-on, or do I need some
CF \| tape? Wait. I think I got it on. Testing, testing, one; two; three.
CF \| Nice. Now, where was I? Oh right.
DavidW pushes the green 'space' button.
CF \|
CF \| Street
CF \| Me and Billy agreed to have a rendezvous in the Eternal Park. We
CF \| planned to infiltrate The Family's hideout; they've been a pain in the
CF \| police's ass, since before you and I existed. We were to meet up at the
CF \| park to discuss our plan of action.
CF \|
CF \| When I hopped off the bus: I was in a bare street. Think apocalypse
CF \| except cleaner. Nothing was there of interest. To the north is the park
CF \| gate.
CF \|		Peregrine says, "WE ARE TOBY"
		Peregrine says, "this is the worst ending"
		DavidW says, "mmhm"
		Jacqueline says, "I hate us."
		Knight_Otu exclaims, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x me"
CF \| >I go by many names: The unpredictable one, Thick-headed Avenger,
CF \| Bounty Hunter. For my enemies, they call me Lady-laws's Lapdog. But I
CF \| only consider one name to rule them all.

CF \| The Pilgrim Of JusticeDrake Dexter..
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "i"
CF \| >I was carrying nothing.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "n"
CF \| >I headed towards the park, and don't go up in arms; I looked right
CF \| then left first before crossing.
CF \|
CF \| By The Park Gate
CF \| It's one of those large, but thin metal ones. Like they're just the
CF \| skeleton or the like bones from a chicken wing after eviscerating it.
CF \| Nothing too uncommon. A sort of in-the-moment observation that still in
CF \| my mind. AnywaysI headed north.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x gate"
CF \| >I didn't do that.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "n"
CF \| >
CF \| Inside Park
CF \| I was inside the park. It was beautiful, I've got to admit, but more
CF \| pressing matters were just up aheadliterally. So I walked northward
CF \| towards the center of the park, where a giant statue of whoever is
CF \| erected with hard-earned tax money.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "n"
CF \| >
CF \| One Side Of Statue
CF \| I scratched my head and did a double-take on my memories. I remembered
CF \| that we were supposed to meet at the park; by the tax-paid statue, but
CF \| Billy wasn't there. I looked, but the only ones there were: people
CF \| jogging, people picnicking, and people jogging while picnicking. I
CF \| circled the statuenortheast.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x statue"
CF \| >I didn't do that.
CF \|		MoyTW says, "Mind your tenses."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x people"
CF \| >I didn't do that.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "ne"
CF \| >
CF \| Other Side Of Statue
CF \| I walked to the other side, and you wouldn't believe who I saw. Even I
CF \| was in disbelief. In all my years: I never anticipated to s- Oh! We're
CF \| here!
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "look"
CF \| "You can have this back."
CF \|
CF \| Parked (in the front seat)
CF \| The interior design of the car is nothing mind-blowing. It's just like
CF \| any other car you've ridden in before. One note worth pointing out;
CF \| there's no backseat. Only the two up frontwhere your and Toby's butts
CF \| are planted on.
CF \|
CF \| Toby is to your side, driving.
CF \|
CF \| Toby stops the car in the middle of the road and gets out. "I'll
CF \| continue the story in another drive. Now, it's time to do this!" After
CF \| saying that, he shuts the door. And now you're here; left in a daze.
CF \|
CF \| You aren't sure what happened. Did you have an out-of-body experience?
CF \| Toby might have broken something beyond repair at this point.
CF \|		Peregrine says, "Phew"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x fourth wall"
CF \| >You look around and shrug.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "out"
CF \| >(First taking off seatbelt)
CF \| Smack dab in the middle of the road
CF \| It's one of those long types. Long enough that you can't see the end to
CF \| the north, and where you came from, to the south. A gate stands to the
CF \| east.
CF \|
CF \| Toby looks at you, he nods and heads east.
CF \|		Knight_Otu says, "That sure was something."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x gate"
CF \| >They look like a perfect cross between a rich person's gate an- No,
CF \| It's just a rich person's gate.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "e"
CF \| >
CF \| By the gate
CF \| Now that is a gate. It has all the hallmarks of a grossly extravagant
CF \| entrance for an equally lavish mansion. It even has those marble towers
CF \| to its sides. A camera moves and watches you and Toby walk towards the
CF \| gate. One of the towers has a high-tech intercom, even has a screen!
CF \|
CF \| Toby stands near the intercom.
CF \|
CF \| A static, crackling sound emits near Toby; the intercom screen lights
CF \| up with the face of a man. "State your business," he says with such
CF \| stoic and professional voice. Toby gets closer to the intercom, "D.D
CF \| The pilgrim." Another crackling sound goes off, and the screen cuts to
CF \| black.
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x intercom"
CF \|
CF \|
CF \| Slowly, the black screen fizzles and mixes as white noise begins to
CF \| show, "bold of you to return, pilgrim," a flat, robotic voice speaks
CF \| through the intercom. "You know I'll come back someday," Toby holds up
CF \| the plastic bag containing what he bought from the store, "Brought
CF \| gifts." The robotic noise gives a dull sound, or are they sighing? You
CF \| aren't even involved in the exchange.
DavidW pushes the green 'space' button.
CF \|
CF \|
CF \| "Oh, and I brought a partner along!" Toby grabs your arm and pulls you
CF \| towards the intercom. As you stood near it, the voice gives a low
CF \| sound, sizing you up, perhaps? "Fine, you may enter." Toby does a
CF \| thumbs-up, "Awesome! I knew you wouldn't let me down!" "Just be
CF \| prepared, you know the drill."
CF \|
CF \| 1) What drill
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[What drill]
CF \|
CF \| But before you could utter those words, the floor you and Toby were
CF \| standing on disappeared. It's gone. You don't know how or why, but for
CF \| a momentlike in some cartoonyou don't fall. You look at Toby as he
CF \| gives you a grinning nod. And with that, you both fall down the hole.
CF \|
CF \| Sewers
CF \| Stinks. It's the sewers, so that's a given, but that doesn't make you
CF \| feel any better. How can you? The walls are all covered in radioactive
CF \| goo. The water is like mixing all the paints in a boxed setbut add a
CF \| pinch of nose poison: The natural kind, not the one in the boxed set.
CF \| There's a path to the north, and looks to be the only one.

CF \| You want to respond, but your body hurts too much to bother.
CF \|
CF \| You're in what looks like a hallway, and a fancy one at that. The floor

CF \|
CF \| A dark room

CF \| lukewarm.
CF \|
CF \| "Hayliee, plea-"
CF \| "Why the hell should I listen to you!?" Hayliee shouts as she stands,

CF \|
CF \| "Hayliee," Toby continues, "I need your help."
CF \|
CF \| Hayliee begins to laugh, "Oh isn't that cute. You're like a stray cat:
CF \| only cames back when he needs something," Her laugh grows louder. "Tell
CF \| me, Drake, Why should I help you?"
CF \|
CF \| Toby is silent, which fuels Hayliee's anger, "Why should I involve
CF \| myself with you. After what you did to us." In the monitor's light, you
CF \| can see Hayliee clenching her fist. So hard, you expected blood to
CF \| start pouring out of her hand.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "z"
CF \| >Time passes.
CF \|
CF \| Toby is silent for a moment; he then opens his mouth, "I did what was

CF \| us? You destroyed the group!" She throws something near Toby. He bends
CF \| down and picks what looks like a picture frame.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x frame"
CF \| >A framed photo of a group of people. From what you can see: you don't
CF \| recognize anyone on the photo, except for one. Toby.
CF \|
CF \| He stares at it for a moment.
CF \|
CF \| "I know that I've done some things that were against the code." Toby
CF \| hesitates, "But please, hear me out." Hayliee is silent. Toby
CF \| continues, "I need help, not only yours, but theirs as well." Hayliee's
CF \| body jerks a bit, "What!? Are you suddenly having a change of heart!?
CF \| BullSh*t!" She lashes out, but Toby doesn't move, not a muscle.
CF \|
CF \| He walks closer to Hayliee, "You're the only person still hung up
CF \| about the group. I know you have their locations." He leans in, "This
CF \| is something I need to do, please, help me."
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "z"
CF \| >Time passes.
CF \|
CF \| Hayliee starts to chuckle, "You, even when begging, you still stand up
CF \| tall," She sinks back into her chair. Toby, still near her, says
CF \| "Please, help me."
CF \|
CF \| Hayliee stands up and goes to a corner of the room, "You really love to
CF \| stick your finger into wounds." Toby smiles, "If it helps me, I'll
CF \| create newer wounds." With that, Hayliee punches some numbers in a
CF \| keypad, which causes a hidden door in the corner to open.
CF \|
CF \| "After me," Hayliee goes in with you and Toby following behind.
CF \|
CF \| It feels like hours since you started to go down the secret passage.
CF \| Your body slows down, while both Toby and Hayliee continue down. Like
CF \| they're used to it. Finally, you reach the bottom. Toby and Hayliee
CF \| push the glass door and enter the room. You do the same.
DavidW pushes the green 'space' button.
CF \|
CF \| Main Hud
CF \| Did you walk into a meeting room? The whole place is only housing a big
CF \| circular table with chairs around it. Besides that, it's bare, nothing
CF \| here at all.
CF \|
CF \| Hayliee is typing away on her laptop.
CF \|
CF \| Toby stands here, waiting.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x laptop"
CF \| >It looks high-tech, more high-tech then yours for sure.
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "talk to toby"
CF \| >What's up?
CF \|
CF \| 1) Can you finally explain what's going on
CF \| 2) See ya
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Can you finally explain what's going on]
CF \|
CF \| "Can you finally explain what's going on?" You joined Toby on what felt
CF \| like a series of unexplained scenarios. You've also witnessed something
CF \| too personal. "Please, just tell me what's going on."
CF \|
CF \| Toby strokes his chin, "Yeah, I guess it's time for you to know." "The
CF \| details are all bit all over the place, so, will a quick run down
CF \| suffice?"
CF \|
CF \| 1) Yes, just any sort of explanation
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Yes, just any sort of explanation]
CF \|
CF \| "Yes, just any sort of explanation."
CF \|
CF \| "Well, Billy was kidnapped by The Murrei Family while we were on a
CF \| mission. The Murrei Family is an organization too powerful even for
CF \| me," Toby looks over to Hayliee, "Which is why I'm going on a mission
CF \| to recruit my former group members for a rescue operation."
CF \|
CF \| 1) And that's what we're doing
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[And that's what we're doing]
CF \|
CF \| "And that's what we're doing?"
CF \|
CF \| "Yes," Hayliee spoke out, "Whatever Drake fancies, he'll do his
CF \| damnedest to achieve it." She stops for a moment to stare at Toby,
CF \| "Probably how he roped us all into his little group. And also how he
CF \| destroyed it all with no effort."
CF \|
CF \| "Hey now, the past is the past, There's something more important now,"
CF \| Toby responds.
CF \|
CF \| "Ok, I got it." Hayliee looks up, "Talk to me when both of you are
CF \| ready."
CF \|
CF \| Main Hud
CF \| Did you walk into a meeting room? The whole place is only housing a big
CF \| circular table with chairs around it. Besides that, it's bare, nothing
CF \| here at all.
CF \|
CF \| Hayliee is typing away on her laptop.
CF \|
CF \| Toby stands here, waiting.
CF \|		Peregrine says, "That explained nothing"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "talk to hayliee"
CF \| >"You guys ready?"
CF \|
CF \| 1) What are we going to do
CF \| 2) Bye
CF \|
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[What are we going to do]
CF \|
CF \| "What are we going to do?"
CF \|
CF \| "I've got the location of all the members of The Group. Now It's up to
CF \| you and Drake to go to them and, I don't know, convince them to jump
CF \| ship?"
CF \|
CF \| "You guys ready?"
CF \|
CF \| 1) Missions
CF \| 2) Bye
CF \|		Knight_Otu says, "That was moree or a reiteration, yes."
		MoyTW says, "This has strong "I'm 11 and making up a rad story about my awesome adventures" energy."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Missions]
CF \|
CF \| "Who are you guys going to?"
CF \|
CF \| 1) Alice Alvia
CF \| 2) Justin Jorle
CF \| 3) Rob Retrel
CF \| 4) Sasha Baker
CF \|		DavidW asks, "Surely this part isn't in the introcomp version?"
		Peregrine says, "Damn you Sasha for not alliterating! You traitor"
		Knight_Otu exclaims, "Sasha, you're out!"
		MoyTW says, "I mean let's just select all of them and see."
		DavidW asks, "Since we know nothing about these people, do in order listed?"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "1"
CF \| >[Alice Alvia]
CF \|
CF \| Alice Alvia:
CF \|
CF \| Former spy for The Group now works freelance for several other private
CF \| clients. Mostly large corporations, rival businesses, and even the
CF \| government for a time.
CF \|
CF \| Skills: She's an expert in stealth and disguise; can hold her own on
CF \| basic-hand-to-hand combat.
CF \|
CF \| Will they be your target?		Knight_Otu says, "Srue."
		DavidW asks, "oh wait, maybe we need to find the right order?"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "yes"
CF \| "Looks like we'll have our work cut out for us," Toby pats your
CF \| shoulder. "But, thanks for sticking with me," he then violently smacks
CF \| your back. You cough, "Heh, maybe this will be the time I'll save."
DavidW pushes the green 'space' button.
CF \| Toby laughs, "Nope, it won't."
CF \|
CF \| "You not even giving me a chance?" You complain. "I don't know. I don't
CF \| know how this will turn out." Toby sighs, which also makes you sigh.
CF \| "Forget it, Let's just go and find them."
CF \|
CF \| "Yes! Onwards!"
DavidW pushes the green 'space' button.
CF \|
CF \| "Guys, hold up," Hayliee cuts in, "I just received an email from some
CF \| person named Ralfe Rich."
CF \|
CF \| "Who!? Sounds like a loser!" Toby snorts. "Well, what does it say?" You
CF \| ask.
CF \|
CF \| "It says: This will be the end of the excerpt."
DavidW pushes the green 'space' button.
CF \|
CF \| Wait wha-
CF \|
CF \|
CF \|
CF \| *** Thank you for playing Intro To A Fool's Rescue. I hope you
CF \| enjoyed the intro! ***
CF \|
CF \|
CF \|
CF \| Would you like to RESTART, RESTORE a saved game, QUIT or UNDO the last
CF \| command?		MoyTW says, "Ok I'll give the author this: that "ok demo's over" was a pretty funny one."
		Peregrine says, "How meta"
		Peregrine says, "And indeed, that was smooth"
		DavidW says, "A very odd game."
		Knight_Otu says, "I'm not quite sure what to think about this."
		MoyTW asks, "I hate it but can't hold it against it?"
		Peregrine says, "It takes quite a while to get to the point"
		MoyTW says, "Like it feels 100% like something I might have made when I was 15."
		MoyTW says, "so, like, sure"
		MoyTW says, "fine"
		Roger says, "I feel pretty introduced to it"
		DavidW says, "mmhm. It did manage that well enough."
		DavidW says, "I do want to see the full version of it, but I can imagine it's not to all tastes."
		Peregrine says, "yeah"
		MoyTW says, "I think it's an interesting contrast to last week's Child Adventure game of Crocodracula."
		DavidW says, "The author is obviously a fan of Adam Cadre."
		Peregrine says, "Absolutely."
		DavidW asks, "Was the Tracy cashier the same character (supposedly) as in I-O?"
		DavidW says, "er I-0"
		Knight_Otu says, "It was a pretty long excerpt. It felt longer to me than Implements of the Arcane, and I was worried that was too big already."
		Peregrine says, "Anyhow: goofnight everyone, I'm off"
		Peregrine says, "hope I wasn't too snarky"
		MoyTW exclaims, "Night!"
		Knight_Otu says, "We snark because we care."
		DavidW says, "I can see why he chose where to stop the intro, though."
		DavidW says, "heh"
		Peregrine says, "hee"
		DavidW says, "bye Peregrine"
		Peregrine says, "bye DW"
Peregrine hops into the DeLorean and heads off to the future.
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "quit"
CF asks, "That game over already? It was just getting good. Wanna play another?"		DavidW says, "One down, two to go. More if we get that Zoom or whatever working again."
		Knight_Otu says, "Maybe, maybe I might have a better connection for that now."
		MoyTW asks, "Wait, so...IntroComp is "Competition of introductions to games" and not "games made by people new to IF"?"
		DavidW says, "I wonder if the pink unicorn is for a birthday party."
		DavidW says (to MoyTW), "yes, but there's overlap, of course."
		Roger says (to Moy), "correct"
		Knight_Otu says (to MoyTW), "Yes, game excerpts."
		MoyTW says, "ooooh"
		DavidW says, "I wrote an IntroComp game once. I never finished writing it, though."
		Knight_Otu says, "I would guess this is a new author too."
		Knight_Otu says, "(Hides his introcomp game.)"
		DavidW says, "I don't know if he's written anything else."
		DavidW says, "oh, Arcane was good!"
		Knight_Otu exclaims, "But also still unfinished!"
		DavidW says, "well, yes. There's a lot of us in that boat. Even Jacqueline."
		DavidW says, "I barely remember what I wanted to do with my game. If I go back to it, and one never knows, it might become a different game than the one I intended."
		Knight_Otu says, "I mean, even writing start to finish that may happen."
		DavidW says, "I never even introduced the main antagonists in my game."
		DavidW says, "mm. I always knew, moreorless, what Easter Egg Hunt 2020's ending would be. I just was inventing the specifics as fast as I could research and implement my ideas."
		DavidW says, "There were some very nice serendipitous moments writing that game. Things I thought wouldn't work turned out to work to my advantage in the end."
		Knight_Otu says, "It sure ended up a quite nice game."
		DavidW says, "thanks"
		MoyTW says, "Thanks for driving. That was an...I mean, the game was kinda Not Great, but it was fun to play through anyways."
MoyTW disappears through an invisible gap in the MUD. You think you may have heard the sounds of chatting before the gap closed again.		DavidW says, "thanks"
		DavidW asks, "Thanks all for the game. See you all next week?"
DavidW focuses on his crystal and fades away into a silver haze in the light.		Knight_Otu says, "I'll be there I'm pretty sure."
		DavidW says, "yay"
		Knight_Otu exclaims, "Good night, everyone, and stay save!"
		MoyTW says, "Barring catastrophe or getting the 'rona or summin' like."
