THE MOCK WEEK

[You find yourself waking in a large dressing room, incredibly spacious, but in intense disarray. The bed is comfortable enough, and each room seems to be equipped with a working bathroom and shower, so it's at least livable. But aesthetically, the place has hit the floor.

The horrifying clock
mounted on the wall reads 9 am. After enough searching, you'll find a large tourist-y map of the studio on one of the dressers. An ominous note attached to the map with a paperclip reads "12PM WAITING AREA". It's not like you have any choice in the matter, seeing as there doesn't seem to be any way out.

Upon exiting the dressing room, you note a crooked star attached to the door bearing your name. There are 24 others like this, bearing names that you may or may not recognize. A quick tour around the studio reveals it to be in a similar state of disrepair, but something doesn't sit...right with you. Though the place is certainly creepy, you get strange vibes as you explore the building. As you move about the dust-filled halls of the abandoned building, you may spot movement out of the corner of your eye, or hear strange noises from behind you. It's nothing to be worried about, though...right?

At the very least, you'll find some comfort. The projection room and attached theater still seem to be in working order, though you'll have to manually grab one of the reels off the wall and start the thing yourself. In addition, the waiting area and lounge are both filled with reading materials, and the later features a large stage and a microphone. The commissary seems to replenish itself with food whenever you take your eyes off of it, ensuring that we won't be going hungry anytime soon. There are also cabinets full of ingredients and a small kitchen should you not trust whatever your benefactor is placing out for you.

Fortunately for them, the smaller individuals amongst your party won't find a great deal of difficulty moving around. Though their beds remain oversized, there seem to be appropriately-sized staircases and escalators placed about in appropriate spots, so as to make their lives easier. After all, they can't just keep relying on the others to get up to the cabinets and such, can they?

While you're waiting to find out what the deal here is, you might as well come out and socialize.]

[Well, at least Lord Hater looks like he pretty much belongs in this creepy building, considering he's a skeleton in a robe wandering around. Feel free to react to that while he stomps about, complaining loudly about how confused and angry he is.]

Ugh. Peepers! I don't remember this part of the plan! Just get out here before I get mad!

[After at least a half hour of that, kicking open doorways and shoving pieces of furniture, he will proceed to start manhandling the theater projector with his terrible skeleton hands. This mostly amounts to him slamming the movie reel against the machine and not understanding why it isn't working.]

Stupid... movie box... work already!

[Whoops, just passing by, and then she spots Hater banging things against the projector. This should be fun for at least a few minutes.]

Hey dude, killer skeleton cosplay. [Thumbs up, stares at the projector.] Also, have you, like ever seen a film projector before?

Uh, DUH? I own like 50 film projectors, and all of them are better than this piece of junk.

[He smacks it with the bottom of his fist this time. Progress.]

[clicks her tongue.]

Is that why you're beating that thing with the other thing?
