An alarm wakes you up. Its 3am.
The 7/11 calls for you. You have to get a Slurpee by any means necessary.

Time to get dressed.

>>972235
No there is no time, speed is of the essence, wrap yourself in the bed-sheets, pull a pillowslip over your head and jump straight through that window.

...

Call a night taxi. Get dressed. Get your wallet.

Get into taxi when taxi arrives. Direct Taxi to nearest 7/11 with a functional, well-stocked Slurpee machine.

Put on sweatpants, get wallet, and proceed to walk towards nearest 7/11

Make sure you have a dollar or two to pay for that slurpee!

>>972236
While this certainly is an amazing idea, being arrested for public nudity would mean you'd never get that slurpee, and you simply cannot allow that to happen. Also dying from jumping through the window is also out of the question.

Looks like a taxi is out of the question. You searched around in the dark, and managed to find only 5 dollars. just enough to buy a couple slurpees, but you cant afford a taxi. Looks like you'll be walking

Crap... Which way was the 7/11 again?
do you go down the safely lit path into the city or down the shady unlit path?
Its so hard to remember these kinds of things at this hour.

Down the shady unlit path, past the crack house two blocks, down slag alley.

>>972245
Into the city.

Down the path! Apparently 7/11 has been branching out, there's sure to be one in the shadier neighbourhoods.

Go down the shady path until you see the 7/11's calming neon glow.

you go down the shady unlit path with great haste.

You really want that slurpee, so you push these thoughts aside, and continue walking down the shady path.

After a few minutes, you encounter a man.
He's unnaturally tall, and is staring into the moon.

"A quiet night, is it not? he asks aloud.
He turns to look at you, "Though it appears I am not the only one awake at this liminal hour.
"I am curious, traveler, what sort of quest brings you to this desolate path?

It feels as though this man can see right into your soul.

Just goin' to get a slurpee how about you?

Don't hesitate. "Not interested, buddy." Keep moving on past him, and clutch at your pocket like you've got a knife or a weapon or something.

The neighborhood's really gone to shit.

Bro I just want a slushie, no pamphlets please.

You attempt to push past the man, but he grabs your arm before you can react.

he hisses at you, "Watch yourself, traveler. It would be wise of you to treat that which you do not understand with a bit more respect."

You see a rage well up inside him, and his grab tightens. It seemed like he may strike you, but he takes control of himself and calms down.

"You are much too eager to surrender your intentions, traveler. It would be smart to watch your words in these parts, for strange creatures lurk here.

Sufficiently spooked by this encounter, you continue along the path with a brisk pace.
You don't want to be here any longer than you have to.

After a few more minutes of walking, you encounter a large chasm.
The chasm has collapsed a nearby house, splitting it in half and revealing its insides.
Inside the chasm is a strange creature. The creature does not say anything, it simply sits there smiling at you.

>>972273
Say hi. Ask where the bridge is at.

Whose a good kitty?

But like, phrased as a rhetorical question.

Ask if the creature knows the way to the nearest 7-11. Mention that someone should put in a work order to have the road repaired at some point.

>>974982
You twist to get a good view of the wound. Ouch! You really need something to patch this up.
A piece of the chasm creature's stinger remains lodged in the wound.
>>974985
In this state you might be able to get there, but the bike has to stay. You're way too exhausted and simply in too much pain to use or drag it.

...
But, why do you even want to continue this journey? Is it worth risking your life for this slurpee? Why do you want it so bad? Is this even the same town you live in? Why is is so full of dangers?
WHY NOT JUST GO HOME?

...
Your head is filling with strange thoughts and notions.

That's a long way on foot.

I say we go to the arcade, then over to the Necro Police Station. Maybe we'll meet someone with some wheels.

You don't wanna mess with a Walmart in a Bad Neighborhood.

>>975042
Ok, those last two are good questions, but questioning the slurpee is unacceptable! Pull out the stinger and look around for something to patch up the wound. If there's nothing around, I guess tie your shirt around it?

>>975051 i dont think pulling the stinger is a good idea. As far as stab wounds go, if you have something sharp like a knife in you, you gotta keep it in as it is acting as a plug to keep most of the blood in.

We might need a doc to treat the internal bleeding

If the stinger isn't very deep, then pull it out. if it's deep, leave it in. Tear off a strip of shirt if you can and use that as a makeshift bandage until you find something better. My vote is to go to the Wal Mart in a Bad Neighborhood and try to get some bandages or something, then past the lake and to the 7/11

Don't panic, but you've probably caught the crazies from that stinger. Aggressively subdue any voices that try to deter you from the slurpee. I second making the Walmart in a Bad Neighborhood our target, there'll be plenty of medical supplies and plenty of people with knowledge in fixing puncture wounds.

Transit man depends on us to return his bike, so we need to be in a position to ride it. You need to carefully bandage that wound with your shirt, only pull out the stinger if its not barbed/the puncture is small.

Can't go home even if you wanted - chasm in the way. Left or forward, the only wrong choice is back.

You decide against pulling the stinger out. It would probably be incredibly painful if you tried it on your own.
You decide to rip a piece of your jacket off and tie it around the wound. At least the pressure on it will help deal with the pain a bit.

You ignore the voices. Going back just isn't an option. After consulting your map, you decide that going into an area literally called "spiral into madness" is not a good direction to go into. You head towards the arcade.With your wound tied up, you find the strength to drag the bike all the way there.

However, that was just about the last of your strength.You sit down on the pavement and give yourself a moment to breathe. You can't take the bike any further with the stinger still in your wound.

You can continue on your journey by foot, or maybe there is someone in the arcade that can help?

>>975145
That's how dubious-canon John died, you know.

>>975147
Go into the arcade and find someone to pull out the stinger that may still be pumping deadly toxin into your fragile body.

Yeah, I think looking for a ride and some first aid is the proper course

Ya, get in there and get some help

Might as well do this. At minimum maybe they can call an EMT or something.

You limp up to the arcade door. A shadow at the door resolves itself into a very sad looking man with a hook. He shakes his head at you with pity. Do you still want to enter?

Well, there is a first aid kit back there near one of the games. We'll have to ask if we can use it.

Hopefully none of those critters were at the scene of the murder... Beg the hookman to let you use the first aid kit, if he demands something from you in return then really talk up how epic your gaming skills are (but stress that they're only worth seeing when you're healthy).

We want to play your First Aid game...

Enter, and ask the man (pirate?) if you can just take the first aid kit with you.

Go on in. It’ll take more than a disapproving look, a hook and a crippling torso injury to stop me!

You don't really wait for a reply because you're kind of in a hurry and don't really know what to say more, so you just start to head out, but as you start to lay your hand on the door to push it open, suddenly you realize that you have had a crippling fear of the outdoors your entire life!

"Huh! That sure is a weird thing to realize just now, why didn't I remember this earlier? oh well."


Time to get comfortable, because you cannot leave due to this newly realized crippling fear.

Oh... so this is why its called the Arcade of Agoraphobia; it makes you terrified of leaving. Uh, ask pirate friend how we can rid ourselves of this irrational fear!

Well, I guess we have enough money to play games here and try to get a prize, maybe there is something to reduce our fear of the outdoors like a giant teddy bear or something.

Check what prizes they have here that might be able to help us.

Ask the proprietor if he wants to play hooky, and challenge him to DDR.

Go so hard on DDR that you raise the roof and/or bring the house down, maybe if we defeat the building itself this weird curse will be lifted.

"It has been 300 years here, away from the seas. My only hope now is that the lich's high-score can be beaten by some stronger than I, and I may be allowed to visit the locker once and for all."

Maybe we can beat the score if we work together with some of the more spidery shadow demons.

Instead of attempting to break the high score record, we should instead try to find a way to reset the score of the ddr arcade machine.

3000 for the Pirate Tricorne Hat
And uh, 5000 for the ??KEY?? Uh, but you're not allowed to have it.

And no, i don't know where the breaker room is. I'm not allowed to leave this booth.

Well, cheating as ski-ball seems like a good solution for printing tickets, but we still need to decide how to cheat. If we can find flip the breaker that should clear the cabinet memory and wipe all the cabinets scores... but its very conspicuous. If we can get enough tickets maybe we can just shoot the lich?

I say we take a quick look around and see if we can find an unlocked breaker room, if not then we should go use our quarters to cheat a ski-ball.

Alright now let's investigate the available ticket-giving games and take stock of our funds, see how many tickets we can make.
Also... see if any of the trapped souls here want to donate tickets to you so you can get something good.

...any way to tell what the lich's phylactery is? Or is it not an actual lich, but a strong ghost? We could just aim for the ghost juice in that case.

Might need to make a pit-stop at the bathroom. Just seeing the sign gives me the rumblies.

What if we just cheesed one of the easier arcade games until we had enough money for GUN, challenged the lich in person, and GUNNED him?

Ask the ghost many tickets he costs. If he isnt allowed to leave the booth, maybe we can buy him his freedom?

It's dangerous to spend your quarters on any game without knowing what sort of ticket output you'll get. Ask the other denizens of the arcade which machine is best for cheesing tickets.

I've counted at least 3 cameras in this building, but i'm not sure if any are actually pointed this direction. Still something i'd take into account though.

Gotta concur here, lil buddy is not only cute but he probably knows the game back to front. Lets spend 2 quarters on that.

Skee-ball cheating is for desperate people.

You get 963 points from this round, woohoo! that'll surely be a lot of tickets.

>>982141
Oh, but what's this? seems like you have one bullet left. a brilliant idea comes to you. If you shoot the lich with the lightgun in the past, you can prevent him from ever completing ddr2, and the denizens of this arcade will never have been trapped!

You close your eyes. You focus intently on your desired goal.
You want to shoot.
Shoot the lich.
Shoot the past.
You peer into your minds eye. You can see it all now.

This is the world in which Exppextaceon the fleet-footed lich never achieved 10528 points in Dance Dance Retribution 2.

Having never developed an addiction to the game, Exppextaceon never trapped the denizens of the arcade, and devoted his time to actually evil deeds.
There is no longer an arcade to be trapped in, but the landscape is a desolate wasteland.

The cities are in flames. The lich's beasts wander the streets looking for survivors to prey on.

You see the lich on his throne. He uses his lich magic to see all and corrupt the minds of his enemies. You would be but a bug, so far beneath him he would pay you no heed as you complete your journey, if you stay out of his way.

Do you pull the trigger?

Ok, uh, I'm gonna say don't pull the trigger.

On second thought, lets not shoot Exppextaceon. He might destroy the 7-11, and no 7-11 = no Slurpee

I think we'd better not shoot the lich

Yeah I think we're fine with the timeline as it is.

>>982463
Shoot him! We can get the slurpee in peace.

holy crap, this timeline looks dark as heck.
You definitely change your mind about pulling the trigger.
You aim at something on the screen instead.

... You can't pull the trigger.
You're still looking through your mind's eye!
"uh... hey, you alright? Pull the trigger already."

You try to pull the trigger. You can't.
You try to speak. You can't.
You try to move at all. You can't.

You feel as if a powerful force is watching you, and you're rooted to the spot in fear.

You feel something pulling at you through your mind's eye. You can feel as if you are slipping right of your own body and into a bottomless pit.

In just a few seconds you'll have been dragged through the threshold.

Close your mind's eye, cut the connection!

Blind your minds eye with the lightgun! DO IT NOW!

>You try to pull the trigger. You can't.
>You try to speak. You can't.
>You try to move at all. You can't.

Guess we'll die then.

Actually, idea: think as hard as you can about a slurpee to combat that fear, then if you can talk again, tell the little guy to shoot your mind's eye as quick as he can!

...

But how did those guys know our name?

the only person we told our name to was... the bus driver. damn it. I wonder if he betrayed you because we lost his bike to some hooligans, and failed to report his stolen bike.

>>982492
stolen bus, not stolen bike.

I knew we should have shot him. Clog the vortex with the little dude!

note: the gun has no bullets left so you'll have to shoot off the screen to reload.

You put all of your willpower to muster out a single sentence.
Shoot... The... Minds... Eye!

The kid looks at you confused for a moment, but then it clicks.
"You fool! You tried to shoot the past, didn't you?! Did you really think you were the first to try this??". The kid takes aim, and blinds your minds eye.

They shut his minds eye, sir. The portal was interrupted.

Get it open.

Yes sir. Right away, your lichdom.

You are a little gnome boy. You have been stuck in this arcade for 2 weeks now.

The man that played the lightgun game with you is lying on the floor unconscious.

"Oh mannnnn,, this is baaaddd"

>>982513
Check the first aid kit for a defibrillator. If you attach it to his temples, it should wake him up.

>>982513
Draw on his face.

>>982515
this is critical

Find his shadow. He might know what to do. You might want to give his shadow some of this man's quarters as well.

>>982513
Definitely check the first aid kit for something to help

You root around in the mans pockets for some stuff.
You find $5 and 6 quarters, as well as a first aid kit and 1092 tickets.

You open up the first aid. It looks like pretty standard stuff, aside from a giant syringe sitting on top of everything.

Before you take any action, you decide to look around for anything that can help. Eventually you stumble upon a person that looks exactly like the unconscious guy. maybe they're related?


the man mutters to himself ,"ugh i don't feel so good... something feels wrong."

>>982625
Tell him a guy that looks like him passed out after trying to shoot the past.

Maybe the shadow man could use the syringe if he's feeling sick? Ask him if he knows the man who fell unconscious.

See if the shadow will stand in the appropriate shadow position in relation to your new pal's carcass and see if that helps.

Mimic the exact same pose this shadow is making. Pretend that this shadow is your shadow

"Sigh... Well i'm not mad or anything, I was just hoping could get back together with my original host some time. But, I guess i'm your shadow now kid. I can offer helpful advice and reach tall shelves I guess"

"oh, haha. I guess I wasnt thinking haha sorry"

"Oh, at least i'm feeling slightly better now"

cool. New friend. tell him that you cant wait to play shadow puppets with him someday.

Take your new shadow to your unconscious player 2, and ask what your new shadow has in his shadow first aid kit that may help.

Also recall where your old shadow went awhile ago.

Does shadow have a mind's eye too? If so, warn him to keep it closed.

Go check on your original friend and see if shadow can help at all.
