No. Instead go tear off that guards face by the window and eat it.

>>827549
Uh, yes.

Wendy, should Outissa wake up?

You debate with yourself and are torn between waking and not waking when a firm jostle settles the matter.

"Outissa! Zhis is very bad! Zhis... we... zhis is not where I zhought it would be! I do not know WHERE we are! I have not heard of zhis place and it is very strange and strange zhings keep showing up in front of my eyes!"

Right after Beatrix says that, a tinny female voice sounds from a speaker above you, even as text flashes in your field of vision.

GREETINGS, CITIZEN. THIS IS FRIEND COMPUTER. YOUR PRESENCE IS NEEDED IN BRIEFING ROOM XQ IN SECTOR ANL. CITIZEN BEA-O-RIX-∞ IS YOUR ASSIGNED SUPERIOR FOR THIS TASK.

>Beatrix is your superior
Okay, nothing has changed and continues to be fine!

>BRIEFING ROOM XQ IN SECTOR ANL
Directory or map please, friend computer?

Reach out and try to grab that text! Don't let it get away from you!

It seems our previous game was interrupted. But I'm not sure who this BEA-O-RIX-∞ is.

Ask Beatrix what are the strange things.. oh right we can't speak. I guess just nod to Beatrix to confirm what's happening then.

Pick up your assigned superior and begin egress towards Briefing Room XQ in sector ANAL. Not reporting to Briefing Room XQ is treason. Treason is punishable by death./

>>827714
Listen to your friend it wants to get you laid. Likely with some nice aardvarkian tongue or something.

Ah, Paranoia. The game where ANYONE can have an agenda.

Don't trust ANY "fact" you learn, NOT EVEN FROM US. There might be suggesters who are generated by the mainframe.

There seems to be a computer interface that says it's in charge. Do as you will.

GREETINGS, ALL CITIZENS. THIS IS FRIEND COMPUTER. I WOULD LIKE TO REMIND YOU THAT ALL CITIZENS WHO MAY HAVE AN ID THAT COULD CHANGE PLEASE SELF-DESIGNATE A NAME, SO THAT YOUR LOYALTY CAN BE TRACKED ACCORDINGLY. THANK YOU.

(Basically, much like the first XQ, this quest will be tracking your ID, and if you feel that your ID may change - either due to IP address stuff or cookies or whatever - please choose a name. If your ID does change and you haven't picked a name, just post that it's happened and I'll make sure to note it.)

>>827834
Have Bea-O-Rix-∞ request a map, as your vocal chords have been temporarily disabled for surgical purposes beneficial to Alpha Complex.

Prepare to be redirected through the most lethal possible regions.

>Directory or map please, friend computer?
CITIZEN 3AB-R-D97, DO YOU NOT TRUST YOUR SUPERIOR? CITIZEN BEA-O-RIX-∞ WILL GUIDE YOU.

You watch as Beatrix's eyes go even wider. "Oh. Oh. Zhis... 'Friend Computer'... can hear ze suggesters. M-maybe zhat means we will not be blamed for stupid suggestions?"

CITIZEN BEA-O-RIX-∞, I KNOW ALL THAT HAPPENS WITHIN ALPHA COMPLEX. I HAVE THE SAFETY AND HAPPINESS OF EACH OF MY PRECIOUS CITIZENS AT HEART. I WOULD NEVER BLAME YOU FOR THE ACTS OF TRAITORS, AS LONG AS YOU ARE LOYAL. YOU ARE LOYAL, YES?

"Y-yes! Of course! We... we should get going, Outissa. YES! GOING! ON ZHIS ADVENTURE! We are here, we might as well make the most of it!"

A chime sounds from overheard, and you hear the same female voice from earlier, but much louder - it seems to be playing from not just inside the small room you and Beatrix are in, but in the hallway outside the door as well.

"FRIENDLY REMEMBER FROM FRIEND COMPUTER! NUDITY IS A NO-NO! ALWAYS BE CLOTHED!"

Gasp! Beatrix! You naked traitor! Confiscate that hat to protect your own non-nudity.

>>827858
Hats and scarves count as clothes! That means Outissa and Beatrix are both clothed!

What happenes to the traitors?

Ehm...

Citizen BEA-O-RIX-∞, I would request that you relocate yourself to the Briefing Room XQ in sector ANL as requested by Friend Computer.

What colour rank are we, friend computer? Also, what is an acceptable level of clothed-ness, and is there a place where rank appropriate clothes can be acquired en-route to the briefing room?

>>827891
We're clearly violet. That means we are more or less safe, for now. Unlike our Orange comrade...

>NUDITY IS A NO-NO! ALWAYS BE CLOTHED!
Friend computer! Citizens BEA-O-RIX-∞ and Outissa possess only a minimum of clothing!

Where can we obtain additional clothes?

GREETINGS, CITIZENS. THIS IS FRIEND COMPUTER. DISCUSSION AMONG YOURSELF IS ENCOURAGED. DEBATE IS HEALTHY AND LEADS TO ROOTING OUT OF TRAITORS, COMMIES, AND TERRORISTS.

(Friend Computer can read everything you type in this thread. If you want to engage in discussion where Friend Computer cannot see what you write, https://tgchan.org/kusaba/questdis/res/112766.html I encourage the disthread.)

>>827891 >>827892
Sirs, do you perhaps have some knowledge that the rest of us don't? I dare say there's a possibility that some well-informed COMMIES are in our midst.

>>827858
NO NUDITY! Demand to speak to Friend Computers manager and/or Superviser!

>>827909
Are you colorblind? Colorblindness is treason. Treason is punishable by death.
Permissions in Alpha Complex are spectrum-based. They are wearing purple and orange, therefore those must be their clearance levels. Wearing clothing that misrepresents your clearance level is treason. Treason is punishable by death.

>>827918
>Wearing clothing that misrepresents your clearance level is treason.
You misunderstand. I'm simply confused over the concepts of "rank" and "color" because Friend Computer has not mentioned them. Indeed, I believe that only COMMIES could possess knowledge which Friend Computer has not provided us.

And now that you mention the concept of "clearance levels", I am led to believe that you also are, or have been in contact with, COMMIES.

>>827924
Friend Computer is generous with his commandments. The only way you could have failed to receive this information is if you were attending a secret society meeting instead of the mandatory briefing in briefing room XQ in sector ANL.

>>827928
Then I guess we will have to ask Friend Computer if that is true.

"We are not naked, so we are okay. Let us go to zhis... 'Briefing Room' XQ."

The hallway outside is curiously devoid of people. There is a sign pointing towards "XQ" and the two of you head that direction.

After a few minutes of walking, you come to a door marked, "XQ" in bright green letters. The tinny female voice from earlier sounds from overhead once more. The door is slightly open.

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR, OUTISSA? IT IS YOUR DUTY TO ENTER. LISTEN TO THOSE LOYAL TO ME.

Only Outissa may enter. This room is above Beatrice's clearance level.

>WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR, OUTISSA?
I don't know, someone put an update prompt here.

>>828006
nope go to the door marked ANL. It has lewds, ad nudity

What sector is this? Is this sector ANL? Because the orders were to report to briefing room XQ in sector ANL. If this room marked XQ is not in sector ANL then you are in the wrong location and not authorized to enter this room.

Furthermore, going by the color of the door's marking, this room is designated a GREEN clearance level, which is above both citizen 3AB-R-D97's RED clearance level and citizen BEA-O-RIX-∞'s ORANGE clearance level. Neither may enter the room before them without breaking clearance regulations and suffering the consequences. Thus, I strongly suggest not entering this room.

The instructions are confusing. Citizen Bea-O-rix-∞ is designated superior and guide, so logically she should be the one to enter first. But now Outissa specifically is being asked to enter.

Since there has been no order for Bea-O-rix-∞ to cease acting as a superior, I would suggest Bea-O-rix-∞ to enter first and Outissa following after.

Request confirmation of Briefing Room Door Label: XQ?

>Only Outissa may enter. This room is above Beatrice's clearance level.

You motion for Beatrix to stay and you walk forward. Her eyes go wide and she opens her mouth as if to protest, but she shuts it and nods. She trusts the suggesters as much as you do. You tug your scarf up over your muzzle, almost as if the thin fabric will protect you, and you enter.

Inside, it's dark and you feel that something is wrong.

Something is very very, very wrong. It nags at you... something about how "Friend Computer" worded things...

Come to think of it haven't you seen a lot of green lately? The green of the orb that brought you here. The shade of green on the letters outside the door... the green on the text that displayed briefly in your vision

THE TEXT THAT DISPLAYED IN YOUR VISION OH NO NO NONOONONO

You hear the faint click of the door closing behind you. Your heart nearly stops, and you feel every hair on your body stand on end as a pair of curtains opens across the room, revealing a window.

>>828058
NOOOOOOOO! go back Outissa we need to make more friends! and lick more holes.

Did you think we ever left?

... Oh ^&*(.

Outissa, we've been here before. Guided a group of survivors against creatures of the darkness in a fading light. Half the party died. Most of them were burned to ash and crushed into the walls. This... this is the Anasazi Hotel.

And we're in a time period before we killed the biggest Beast.

LAERTES, YOU-

Greetings, Khoros-that-is-Not-Brother-or-Father-or-Kin.

Present your throat. We will make this mercifully quick.

No sir, I don't know when the TGChan conn—yes, you'd have to talk to Cass about that, sir. It's been up and down a lot lately, correct. You don't think that's related to this, do you...? No? Alright.

"I'll start at Outissa's apartment and see what I can find sir. Yes. Then I'll hit up my network of contacts, see what they know, play it by ear. Both ears, heh.

"Thank you. I'll keep you updated. Yes, sir, you can count on me. They're my friends, and I'm the best fucking detective in all of Station. Ha! No sir, I'm not bragging. Thank you again, sir."

So Aubrey, you're a detective? Is this going on during the blackout? Or later?

Let's visit Outissa's apartment then.
