Elevator

[castaside]

Once all six items have been inputted into the corresponding voids, the elevator doors open. It is more than large enough to fit everyone, even accounting for Wash's power armor. It's well-lit and surprisingly modern in addition to being clean and spacious.

On the keypad you will see the following:

LOBBY

Level C

And then there is a large round "key"hole where you're clearly meant to fill in order to proceed any lower than Level C.

After C is:

Level S

Level S¹

Level U

And then another keyhole, this one more traditional. And finally:

Level FE

[ Korone doesn't love elevators, for lol lmao trauma reasons, but she is ignoring the fuck outta that; she'll have time to indulge in some good ol' retroactive [AAAAAA] later. ]

So ... we start with C, I guess?

Re: Elevator

MK stepped into the elevator. He looked at the buttons and the two keyholes. Well, the second was looked like an old keyhole. The first one looked different. Things had to go in to go lower than C. Okay. So either something they already had or something else. Video game logic go. MK blinked and looked at the letters. He had no idea what they meant. At least, not yet. Someone was bound to explain it.

"Okay. I think so? It's the first one. Level 1 I guess." He said.

Re: Elevator

[bluediligence]

Any idea what the letters might stand for? I don't have a clue ...

Re: Elevator

[noodleboi]

"No idea!" MK smiled and shrugged. One brain cell between these two. What could go wrong?

Re: Elevator

[bluediligence]

Guess we'll find out when we get there ...

[ WELP. ]

At least the elevator prob'ly isn't booby-trapped.

Re: Elevator

[noodleboi]

"I hope not," MK said and reached out.

"Here we go..." He hit the C Button.

Re: Elevator

[forgingfires]

If I had to guess, I would say Celestial Realm and Underworld, but I can't think of anything for the other letters.

Re: Elevator

[bluediligence]

"Feelings Everywhere"?

Re: Elevator

[forgingfires]

...well, it would be straight forward.

Re: Elevator

[bluediligence]

My second guess was "Fuck Everything" ...

I hope it's not that one.

Re: Elevator

[forgingfires]

....its. Probably not.

Re: Elevator

[bluediligence]

Probably? Hopefully.

That kind of room is ...

Not uncommon.

Re: Elevator

[forgingfires]

...understandable.

Re: Elevator

[bluediligence]

Yeah. [ SIGHS. ] Heart games.

Whatever it is, it feels like there's probably gonna be enough rooms we'll have to split up.

Re: Elevator

[forgingfires]

It would be best. MK is buying us time, but we do only have so much time.

Re: Elevator

[bluediligence]

It's not straining you as badly as mine did, is it-?

[ She still feels bad about that! Okay! ]

Re: Elevator

[forgingfires]

Hasn't yet, but I haven't run into trauma or unreality issues.

....mostly the unreality issues.

[Listen, feeling like he's not a person AIN'T GREAT for trying to not set fire to the world.]

Re: Elevator

[bluediligence]

Ah. Yeah. My heart is ...

... really ...




... really bad for unreality nonsense. Worse than most.

Re: Elevator

[forgingfires]

It was very rough.

Re: Elevator

[bluediligence]

It was-?

... I mean - obviously it was, you guys were all ... and you -

[ they were a huge fucking mess ]

Ah.

Re: Elevator

[forgingfires]

Yes. Why would you think it wasn't rough?

Re: Elevator

[bluediligence]

Warped perspective? I was up and joking fifteen minutes after reviving from the spaghetti incident, you know.

[ Runs a hand down her face. ] I need to start interviewing those therapists I've been researching ...

In a couple of days. Because "recovery time" is a thing here.

Re: Elevator

[forgingfires]

I am aware.

[He is SO AWARE.]

Recovery time is important.

Re: Elevator

[bluediligence]

You're -

Oh god, I am so fucking sorry.
