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.]

[JESUS KID DON'T DO THAT

It takes Fiddleford a couple seconds to get his heart to slow down a little but once he does he reaches into his jacket and pulls out a piece of paper.]


Y-yes. Here.

WOW! She's got legs for days!

[Among other things.]

Is she a model? But why would she be hangin' around a spooky old place like this?
terribibble: (absolutely very upsetting)

Legs for...

[Yeah he's... he doesn't know that slang but that's fine. It's fine. Probably not important. He can guess.]

There were posters. In the office. With her on them. So she's someone famous, looks like.

[pssshhh, OLD PEOPLE]

If she's really the Jess who talked to me then she's gotta know what's going on! And if she's famous then why haven't any of us heard about all this?
terribibble: (his chin goes INSIDE him)

[personal profile] terribibble 2017-05-11 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, well. Folks are talkin' about different worlds and all that. She's famous here, she might not be in the places we're from. Right?

[That follows logically, he thinks. Yeah. Okay. Doing alright at this mystery solving stuff.]

[That choking noise is the realization hitting her.]

Oh, no, oh no, this really IS some kind of inter-dimensional prison! We are in BIG trouble if we don't get out of here soon!

...But if this chick was here and got out, then there's gotta be a way!
terribibble: (8 crimes is not bad)

[personal profile] terribibble 2017-05-11 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
... What I want to know is how she got you a message if she's on the outside.

[Because he's getting the impression there's no way in and no way out, which means... maybe she didn't get out at all.]
