SHOWMASTER HEART GAME (WEDS)

[showmaster]

A familiar voice can be heard above you, you're not sure if they're talking to you or not but it does feel like you're part of this conversation:

"What a Wonderful Story that you have. I've read it many times when I was feeling sad. You know, I wanted to keep it in my personal collection, but it doesn't seem that's going to be possible. To grant my wish, I'd have to sacrifice what it means to be a reader ... to become the story. That's The End that I'm looking for.

THE ELEVATORS (TICKETMASTER)

[ticketmaster]

You find yourself in the familiar hall of the elevators, but it’s somewhat different than what you might remember. It's still clean, the potted plants are still there, the bright fluorescent lights are still there. There's even a trash can if you have trash you need to throw away.

However, what you do notice is that the doors you walked through are behind you, but they look like regular double doors. There's also an emergency exit.

And instead of a row of elevators, there are only three and each one has a unique label:

The first one is [blank].

The second one is labeled “DEAREST”.

The third one is labeled “TICKETMASTER”.

If you need to access anywhere else, you have to go through the elevators, but you're not sure where they will take you.

[liveslaughsloves]

Cute…thanks.

[tucks it in a pocket and moseys to take the blank elevator]

Re: THE ELEVATORS (TICKETMASTER)

[ticketmaster]

[You enter the elevator and you're immediately greeted by elevator music, it's cheerful and fun! The door closes behind you, and you can see a small child that looks just like the Ticketmaster staring up at you.

Next to her are buttons for different floors:
TRUE NAME
HOBBIES
FAVORITES
THE WORLDS
ESTORIA
DEAREST

Inside the elevator is what you would expect of it, nothing special that can be noted outside of being able to see your reflection in the walls.]

[BABIE]

Hey, kiddo. How’re you doing?

Re: THE ELEVATORS (TICKETMASTER)

[ticketmaster]

Hi. Do I give you the right answer or the truthful answer?

Re: THE ELEVATORS (TICKETMASTER)

[liveslaughsloves]

[surprised]

They ain’t the same?

[ticketmaster]

Um, you have to pick one, it is VERY important that you pick.

[liveslaughsloves]

Which one d’you want me to pick, are you allowed to say?

[frontdesk]

I think you should pick the truthful answer.

[liveslaughsloves]

[exhales]

Yeah, me too. That one, then.

[frontdesk]

I'm doing good.

[And then despite standing mostly prim and proper, a smirk spreads on her face.]

That's the right answer, too. Hehe, gotcha.

[liveslaughsloves]

[—laughs]

You did! You little rascal.

[frontdesk]

[huhuhu-]

I'm just a little girl who told the truth, I'm not a rascal. You're the rascal, Mister Broomstick.

[liveslaughsloves]

I guess this does sorta feel like breaking and entering.

[unrepentant tho lol]

I’m glad you’re doing good. Any opinions to share on all these weird goings-on lately?

[frontdesk]

Yeah, they're dumb. I dunno which weird goings-on you're talking about but they're dumb.

[Points to the buttons.]

That's about me.

[liveslaughsloves]

Yeah, you gave good directions. Anything you want me to check out, or should I just kinda take a gamble?

[frontdesk]

[Points to FAVORITES :)))))]

[liveslaughsloves]

[gives her a lil salute and presses that button]

Thanks.

[frontdesk]

[And suddenly panels in the wall open and snakes pile out in droves until the floor is pretty much covered with them.

The little girl has her hands in the air, celebrating.]

Yay.

[liveslaughsloves]

[YELPS and picks her up out of the way of danger, keeping very still so he doesn’t tread on a snake]

WHY

[frontdesk]

My favorite animal is snakes!

[:) :) :)]
