PIZZA!!!!!!

Freeze-dried icecream

Dehydrated water.

might not need to mess with more buttons and instead just open the box(?) up.

Check the knob, looks like a door handle. Hold onto it with one hand, and press buttons in sequential orders according to your imagination while you try to get the handle open.

white box? yup, its the REAL schizophrenia experience. time to press buttans!

Check Inventory

Which is to say, yourself. All of you here, any bits missing?

Put a quarter in the purple coin slot

>Check Inventory

You feel around in the pockets of your dress, and find a few things lying within. You have a VINTAGE SKY DANCERS DOLL, the kind that got recalled a few years back because the pointy end kept poking kid's eyes out. You also have a PAPERCLIP, and a YOYO. Other then that all arms, legs, and other appendages are accounted for.

>What is that row of circles next to you?

They appear to be a collection of small mesh holes, letting in fresh air throughout the box.


>is the long thing a hinge or handle?

It's a door handle, though it's tightly locked with no way to turn it.

That makes about as much sense as anything else, you don't have any other context on what the buttons will do. You proceed to grasp the door handle with your left hand, while raising your right hand to start pressing buttons.

You start with pressing the red one a second time.

Next up is the blue button, which sinks into the roof of the box once you press it, unable to be touched again. From seemingly nowhere, a melody begins to start playing, one that you have a distant memory of. It appears to be in a language you don't speak, but it's up beat at least.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9756hj1ZE8I

Next you move to the green button, which one again sinks into the wall and leaves it unable to be pressed once more. You hear some kind of grinding nose far outside of the box, and the scent of...pizza hits your nose? You suddenly realize you are fairly hungry.

With no other options left, you proceed to hit the purple button. Right as you touch it, a vibration in the door handle alerts you to the fact that the lock has been undone, and you are able to escape your tiny box.

You open the door, crawling out into wherever you may find yourself.

You find yourself standing in a room that is...weird. Yes, it's weird because rooms don't tend to be this bare and oddly laid out, but also because you have a strange sense of familiarity. Regardless, there's a lot to see and a lot to do.

Okay, first up. Now that you're safely out of the box, check it for any additional items you may have ignored while trapped in it. Once you're fairly certain there's nothing else left in it, place the box to the side of the door. You may need a barricade quickly.

Next, look at that broken switch, likely for the door. You may be able to hotwire a bypass to open the door without a code.

Knock on the barrel, try to figure out what is inside without opening it.

Don't touch the computer until you're sure you can't escape otherwise. It may trigger an alarm.

Oh! That's not a lip ring that's your nose!

>>1100968

Hold on.

You were just laying in a cramped, uncomfortable space.

Do some stretches before venturing forth. Gotta keep in shape. Wouldn't do to get a sudden cramp while running for your life, avoiding traps, and/or trekking into the unknown.

examine barrel
maybe that's where the pizza smell is coming from?

also looks like someone broke the door control panel...

I think you're in the wrong quest.

take some time to play with your yo-yo. Have some fun before you work.

>>1100971
Stretching is critical Cosmo(!). You never know when you could over extend yourself and pull a muscle that will impact your ability to work for ages to come!

Check out the other box. Can you hear breathing coming from the air holes? There may be someone inside so say hi.

FIND PIZZA

Follow the smell of pizza.

You consider this for a moment, realizing just how stiff your entire body feels. Pausing your adventure for a moment, you let yourself streeeeetch out your arms, rolling your shoulders a few times until you can loosen up your body. While you're not in perfect condition yet, you do feel better. That being said, there's an odd crick in your neck that will just NOT go away, it's like there's a weird pressure on it from behind.

>examine barrel

>FIND PIZZA
>Follow the smell of pizza.

You walk over towards the barrel, though you're pretty sure it's more of an oil drum. The entire thing is made of thick metal, and a few knocks on the side of it echo out a deep rumbling tone. The top of it has a thick plastic plug, sealing a hole that you have to assume would be where the oil would come out of? As far as you can tell, the pizza smell is coming from within the drum. You're kinda hungry now.


>Check out the other box. Can you hear breathing coming from the air holes?

You take a brief look over to the other locker. As far as you can tell, there's no one inside.


>Now that you're safely out of the box, check it for any additional items you may have ignored while trapped in it.

Nope! As far as you can tell, the locker you were in is completely empty. Even the buttons have deactivated. You're just looking at a perfectly empty locker, ready to receive some books, coats, maybe the occasional nerd stereotype.


>place the box to the side of the door.

Unfortunately you're not able to move something so heavy. Not because you have a girlish figure or anything, though. You're like, six years old or something.


>look at that broken switch, likely for the door.
>also looks like someone broke the door control panel...

It certainly does look broken! The control panel has two buttons which would probably be glowing if there was power. Just from a glance though, you can't really see what's wrong with it, should you take a closer look?

>pressure on neck
Um. You don't like, have a tracker clamped onto your spine or st do you?

Check your neck, might be an implant

>>1101227
Remove the plug on the pizza barrel and try to take a sip of the liquid pizza contained within

You should investigate what kind of weird pizza-y liquid is in there, and if it seems safe or if it looks or smells off! And what, actually, is it!

While we’re inspecting the panel, we might as well *try* lifting up the slats. Maybe the broken panel means the door is unlocked and not jammed? It’s really a mixed bag with broken panels. I’ve seen people slam on door panels to close a door, AND to open it.

Pop the cork on that barrel to see what's in it. Maybe there's real pizza inside!
Examine power panel closer.

>>1101227
Jiggle the barrel a bit. Maybe you can guess what's in it from the sound.

Hotwire the switch! That means take the open ends of the two cords connected to the trigger (in this case, the two wires that the switch is connected to) and carefully stick the metal bits of both cords together. Do not touch the metal bits, it will hurt.

You trace your fingers along the back of your neck, but you can't feel anything out of the ordinary. Then again it would be kind of hard to tell whether or not anything had been placed inside of you, right? You've seen spy movies before, they always tiny little eency-weency microchippy things put in them.

You try your hardest, but the plastic stopper plugging up the drum appears to be stuck tight. It feels like there's a second lip to the plug on the inside of the barrel keeping it in place, so you're not sure if tugging will do any good. The middle of the plug is made of a thin plastic though, perhaps it's not opened by pulling?

>Jiggle the barrel a bit. Maybe you can guess what's in it from the sound.

Before moving onto other places of interest, you attempt to give the barrel a jiggle. It's quite difficult for a girl of your stature, given that you're a literal child and you could very well end up vending-machine style murdered, but you manage to give it a jostle without crushing yourself senseless.

Surprisingly, it doesn't sound like there's any liquid inside. Instead you hear a CLA-CLANG CLA-CLANG like something small and hard is banging around inside the drum. Though it's hard to tell, it sounds like it might be made of metal?

>Examine power panel closer.

You take a closer look at the panel. Hm.
The panel appears to be hanging on one screw that is somewhat loose, but the other three are still present in the plastic rectangle holding the buttons. Inside you see a mess of wires going every which way, though none appear to be broken or frayed. Instead, there looks to be two wires with odd rectangular plugs on their ends. They seem to lock together at their ends, but a big circular piece seems to be missing.

>Hotwire the switch!

You're not sure that you would be able to do that particularly well, even if these wires seemed like the kind that COULD be hotwired, which unfortunately they're not. Regardless, you are admittedly freaked out over the idea of becoming a fried little whisker girl.

>While we’re inspecting the panel, we might as well *try* lifting up the slats.

Even if the slats were loose, the sheer weight of the door would be too much for a girl your size. You refer back to the image of vending-machine death mentioned earlier, but with a marie-antionette flavor added to it. You suppose if you really needed to check for an implant, decapitation is a viable method.

So we have doll, paperclip, yoyo... nothing was in the other box? So just those items... so we don't have anything to open the barrel or fix the circuit.
Check the terminal. Is it on, does typing do anything?

So someone sabotaged the switch. And in some haste it would seem, else they would have replaced the cover. Check the corners and under or behind everything in case they dropped the missing piece in their haste.

When that proves fruitless check out the console.

>They seem to lock together at their ends, but a big circular piece seems to be missing.

Maybe the missing cirrcular piece is the YOYO in our inventory? If not, maybe the paperclip could be twisted to hold the plugs together.
