[Naw, I totally saw it right away, the seemingly male part is just making me think twice]

Don't lick everything, just lick the walls once or something. Or lick the sound of the music! Then follow the music.

>Follow the sound of music.
There is a man here. He's playing the piano. I think he's faceless.
Solemn music plays. Relaxing and quite pleasant. He would be smiling.
He knows that I'm here. Somehow he conveys "hello". How should I respond?

I compliment him, suggest that he continue. He plays me a song.

He somehow smiles. He seems to have a mouth now. He asks me something.
"Do you have a name?" I tell him "My name is Dirk." He says his is Sharp.

>Ask him how long he has been playing here. Ask him about this place and how he got here.
He's been here so long, does not recall arriving. Playing endlessly.
The hall is gone now. There is some sort of void here, moving towards Sharp.
"It wants to consume. I don't want to be consumed. I can't stop playing."
His hands race on keys, he looks like he's terrified. Do I run or help?

No. 273048 ID: 1854db

Help him! If he can't stop playing then move his keyboard.

Try to help him.

>>273048
That might just move the void after him.

You should see if there is any autoplay function on the keyboard instead. Something that will keep on going even if he's not there. Or maybe a record function that you can put on play later.

Well pick a direction and walk in it. Should hit something sooner or later. You can talk to him about what he remembers and stuff while walking. Mention that you think you're asleep and can't wake up and stuff.

We share an embrace. With him in my arms, I'm warm. His grip is pleasant.
I see a door now. It is somewhat far away. Should I enter it?

>Investigate sobbing.
It is a sad man, blubbering and mumbling.
And when we approach, he looks up at us, crying."I do not know how".
I don't comprehend. He's speaking without a mouth, his words make no sense.
"I do not know how. But I have to know how now. I do not know how."

"How to be 'mature'. Everyone tells me to. But I just cannot.
Maybe you know how? How do I become 'mature'. What is 'maturity'?"

Maturity is recognizing when you need to do something that you don't want to do, and doing it. It is sacrificing your own selfish desires for the wellbeing of others. It is not acting like a little shit.

Quickly mention how maturity is also reflected in one's willingness to question the world around him, and thusly not following orders blindly, and thusly further examining the notion that fighting you is for the best.

Go up. See if you can find anything in that direction. If that's impossible, then try right.

If darkness is in every direction, then the only way to escape it is to go in a direction that is not a direction, to a place that is not a place.

Then, that place will be your reality, and the darkness will be just a memory.
