WORLD -1

[monoguests]

[...huh, didn’t you die? Well, maybe you didn’t. You might wake up feeling like you just woke up from a really vivid nightmare that you can still sort of feel the effects of or something… sure, you’re still in your old cabin, but maybe you can go out and see everyone?

...except when you go out, while it seems like the same old camp, things are a little… strange and pixelated. Also, the walls seem to have come down, but if you try to cross the barriers of where the walls were, you’ll find yourself right back at your cabin door.

Welcome to World -1, kids. You’re probably going to be here a while… and you may not actually be alone, either.]

[OOC: Welcome to the wonderful world of post-death sidequesting! "Sidequesting," you may ask? Well... you'll get an explanation soon enough.]

[...the bear turns his head slightly and... kind of cocks it? He doesn't stop, necessarily, but he doesn't say anything.

...just give him a few moments, he's in the zone. He does hit settings on the treadmill to slow it down, though.]

[effectivefacekicking]

[... Awkward]

Are you part of Goombriel's group?

[shslmooks]

[...that... actually seems to catch his attention a bit. He nods, then steps off when the treadmill and heads over to Dark Pit.

He gestures to the door and cocks his head a bit quizzically. ...it should be pretty obvious at this point that he's not exactly a bear of many words.]

[effectivefacekicking]

[That's fine with him, but he's not sure if the bear wants to go outside, or is asking if he CAME from outside]

I'm from the group he's got right now. Or... was.

[He assumes the bear knows exactly what he means, if he's here in Glitch Hell]

[shslmooks]

[...The bear that isn't a complete asshole nods understandingly. This kid probably wouldn't be here otherwise, right? It's a little disheartening, but what can you do.

...he'll head to the door and beckon, because he thinks he's got an idea.

[effectivefacekicking]

[Pittoo nods, following along. He has no reason to distrust the guy yet, after all.]

[shslmooks]

[...That bear then proceeds to lead him into the Computer Lab and, after pushing at the wall, reveals a secret room. There's a large steel door, but no attempts to make it open will work. There is also a floating computer monitor, and a set of six hexagonal panels in front of the door.]

[squidsisterpink]

[HEY GUYS WHAT'S GOING ON IN HERE

aka Callie saw Pittoo and a polar bear entering the computer lab and she had to go investigate.]

What's all this?

[effectivefacekicking]

Yo, Callie. Look at this. Is some kinda lock.

[He glances up at the bear]

Guessing you have no idea how to unlock it?

[squidsisterpink]

It's a code, obviously!

[SORRY BEAR Callie is pushing past to go look at the buttons.]

G, A, G, N, M, E.

I guess we have to figure out the word?

[effectivefacekicking]

...

[He's blushing]

Just... tell me which ones to push, okay?

[squidsisterpink]

What? It's just six letters, it's not THAT hard. Haven't you been practicing?

[effectivefacekicking]

Well yeah but-

[HE PUFFS UP HIS CHEST]

OKAY FINE I GOT THIS-

[He stares at the buttons really hard]

G-A-M-E ?

[Wait there's two more letters, oops]

[squidsisterpink]

There's two more letters. G-A-M-E-N-G? Oh, but the E should be an I then...unless whoever made this is like, totally unfresh at grammar.

[effectivefacekicking]

[He pushes the last too buttons]

[monoguests]

[There's a buzzer and a pan falls on Pittoo's head.]

[effectivefacekicking]

[SQUAWKSQWUAK!!! He flails around a little: NOT COOL

He goes off to the side to start pondering all the small words he can think of cuz GONNA BEAT THIS DOOR. If no one else has any better ideas he gonna start punching in word combos.... let's be fair EGGMAN is probably like 4 combos in. Poor bird]

[squidsisterpink]

[Oh geez that looks like it hurts.]

Uh, I guess that was wrong?

[If Pittoo doesn't want to get hit again then Callie can try but that looks like a bad time.]

[monoguests]

[After MANY DIFFERENT PANS when Pittoo finally inputs the correct combo, the door slides open and...it's pitch black inside.]

[effectivefacekicking]

[So much pan related pain. So, so much.]

Okay, let's do this.

[He reaches into his pocket- and pulls out the Deku Nut he got the first week and chucks it in. Hey it's the closest thing to a light source he's got here. He can get a fast flash and peek before going in]

[monoguests]

[...well, it's enough to illuminate the shard sitting in the middle of the room, briefly, at least.]

[effectivefacekicking]

Ha! Got you, you little bastard.

[He creeps inside slowly. After the chest of pure stupid he's not playing this risky again]

[monoguests]

[...the shard suddenly rockets upwards, and all the lights come on.

A giant shadow appears above Pittoo. There's large object from above that falls towards him. Fast.]

[effectivefacekicking]

[OH GODDAMN IT! DODGE ROLL, ALL THE DODGE ROLLS]

[shslmooks]

[...it's a giant block in the shape of an L.

There are more blocks coming, and the shard floats defiantly at the top of the room.]
