It was a night like any other. In the chill of winter, McStick dozes on his bed in the poor neighborhood of town- he cannot afford blankets. As he dozes he hears someone pull into the driveway. He is quite sleepy... it may have been imagined. Especially since nobody in the neighborhood could afford a car. He also doesn't have a driveway.

How should McStick react?

>>160035
With paranoia. It's probably some fuck out to steal our organs, not like we own much else worth something.

Lets go find whatever weapons we can scrounge up from our meager possessions.

>>160036

McStick enters the tiny bathroom adjacent to his bedroom to search for a means of self-defense, should the (possibly imaginary) visitors he hostile. There is a toilet that has not been flushed (the water bill hasn't been paid in months), a sink with no faucet, and a medicine cabinet.

>>160041
Look for razor blades or something in the cabinet. If all else fails then smashing a window and wrapping one of the shards in cloth or plastic can produce a shiv for emergancies.

>>160048

McStick opens the medicine cabinet. The medicine cabinet contains:

METAL BUTTER KNIFE
TARNISHED METAL SPOON
PLASTIC SPORK
CAN O' TUNA

The most promising weapon is the BUTTER KNIFE. The CAN O' TUNA could be used to bludgeon someone, but that's dinner, so...

What should he do now?

>>160050
That stuff shouldn't be in there. Pocket all of it.

McStick adds the items from the medicine cabinet to his inventory. His pockets are almost full... to carry more stuff at once he'll need something bigger to carry it in. McStick makes a mental note to get a backpack, or bigger pockets.

McStick briefly thinks of something to think... he notes that his inventory is poorly drawn and messy. He is very observant.

BREAK THE FOURTH WALL!




...if you're not willing to do that, then just go and open the door.

McStick is confused, as the bathroom only has three walls. It is connected to the bedroom. Why do you think I never drew ceiling and wall lines?
I personally think my drawing skill is good for a Pie Chart with no mouth, eyes, ears, nose, hands, or anything really. That can mysteriously type, write, draw, and talk. I think McStick would agree, but I am not his brain, so i cannot communicate with him except through writing on the screen, which I am too lazy to do.

McStick opens the door and looks outside. The mysterious darkness of night hides all from view... a squeaky voice from below inquires if this is the McStick residence.

>>160214

Uhm.... Ask him "why? Is there something you need this "Mr Sticks for? Perhaps a relative died and left him some money...?"

The short man explains that Mr. Carlos McStick has been selected for his... hidden potential to participate in a special program. In participating in said program, Mr. Carlos McStick will receive a check for one million dollars. He also inquires what the disgusting smell is.

McStick explains the toilet problem.

What should McStick do? He is usually good at reading people, but the man's glasses cover his eyes. Should the man be trusted?

>>160347
We can't trust this guy! Combination stab/beat him to death with all the items in your inventory, drag the body inside, and retrieve the check.

Ask "What potential? What kind of enrichment program?"

McStick decides to make this Plan B.

>>160492

The short man answers that the program is to study the potential for certain people to do things others can't. Unfortunately, there are people who want to use the potential for illegal purposes. This is why he has the gun he is carrying- the others might be coming for McStick as well. He advises you to decide to come or not quickly. McStick sees a light coming from the road to the neighborhood, probably headlights of another car. Decision time...

What should McStick do?

>>160452
Go with him.

>>160452
Follow him, and ask him what kind of powers? Because all this seems like a very flimsy excuse to have you taken out into the woods and then let horses gangrape you to death while they film it. Say that last part as well.

>>160468

McStick follows the man to the car, but doesn't get in yet.
Seeing the hesitation, the man with glasses hands the gun to the man in the front passengers seat and introduces the other man in the car as Johnny. He says don't mind Johnny's face, he's always smiling like that. Johnny is another person with potential.

Johnny, the man with the afro, is relaxing as if he owns the place. He greets McStick, notes that he looks rather uninteresting, and laughs lightheartedly. He seems friendly enough.

>>160479
McStick asks the man about the powers and mentions the forest and horse scenario.

The short man (whom we shall name Bubba) explains that it is different for most people, but there are a few general categories. Some have latent psychic abilities- such as telekinesis or telepathy, some well known abilities. There are some other abilities, but they would take time to explain and McStick probably wouldn't believe him unless he was shown.

This is the point of no return. Enter the car and go with Johnny and Bubba, or return to your house and awful life?

>>160551
Sure.

McStick decides to go with them. As they leave they pass a garbage truck, which was the lights from the road.

The drive is uneventful.

The group enters a lobby. A red haired woman works at a desk with a computer. Johnny goes on ahead through the door on the other side of the room. Bubba tells McStick to follow, he'll show him around.

A sign on the wall reads 'The Y Academy'. McStick thinks he's seen this movie. There is a vent behind the desk and a window over the automated doors they enter through. There is a door on the other side of the room, as previously stated.

All in all it seems fairly harmless so far, besides the gun, which stayed with the man in the passengers seat.

The computer makes a 'beep' noise. McStick guesses that it's incorrect, since nothing happens.

Nuffin'.

+1 Intelligence for being logical.

Clue: Try thinking OUTSIDE THE BOX. *wink wink*

Fourth. Try "fourth".

I'm not bothering editing it again for this guessing game. Nice try, but not it.

Next Clue: Numbers and Letters.

+1 Intelligence. Intelligence is now back at the original 5.

The computer wants a command now, looks like McStick is in. Makes sense, since without me drawing a mouse we really have no other way to use it.

Ask it if it liked the latest House.

On a more serious note, try the following commands:

who are you?
What is your opinion regarding cake?
What can you tell me about myself (my name's mcStick)
What can you tell me about yourself?

The next room is dimly lit by a candle chandelier. The light from the previous room is flooding in. McStick can't see very well...

partially close the door and wait for your eyes to adjust?

...I wonder if "toggle lights" effects this room or every room or only the room with the computer in it?

Go try it.

McStick partially closes the door, and his eyes adjust so he can inspect the room for you.

There is a gray shoelace on the floor, but McStick's inventory is full. There is a vent near the ceiling, but it looks too small to crawl through.

There's nothing there now, but McStick could've sworn he saw the eyes you're talking about before they vanished...

There is a locked panel in the corner. It looks like it's connected to the other door.

[Well, I'm out for the night, ciao till tomorrow all]

>>163542
Looks like we've hit a dead end. EQUIP butterknife so we can pick up the shoelace, then head back to the entrance and go the other way.

>>163542
Replace the spork with the sholaces. Our mighty shoelace garrote shall succed where other things fail.

McStick replaces the shoelace with the fork, as carrying around a weapon might give other students the wrong idea.

On his way to the other side of the starting room, McStick tries the "toggle lights" command.

>>163710
Hit on the AI abit, tell it what a fine piece of software it is. Then go back and check out the previously dark room.

>>163716
What? That's weird.

Go check on the darkened room now.

Try these arguments:
toggle_lights(disco)
toggle_lights(harmony)

McStick has no idea why he's hitting on a machine, but oh well. Having the thing running this place on your good side is definitely an advantage.

The toggle lights command only seems to work for these weird lights.

The door is locked from the other side. McStick has a feeling he hasn't searched everything that could be searched.

>>165649
Go see if the AI has some thoughts on how to proceed.

Well check the AI room again, maybe you can see something new with the odd lights toggled.

McStick inspects it and finds that you can open it like a door.

McStick follows a cramped tunnel to a new room. There is another monitor, but no keyboard, some colorful buttons, and two vents. Also the door is locked. McStick has a bad feeling about this.

+1 Intelligence = 6 for observational ideas. Unfortunately, observed the wrong thing... at least for right now. Also, the thing where the shoelace was is the spork we switched it with.

Poking the screen yields no interesting results.

Upon pressing the Yellow Button, McStick hears a hissing sound.

Dark Blue
Yellow
W----
Tan
Purple
Aquamarine
Green

Look for a WHITE button somewhere.

hmmmm, if it's not it, then what? try all the buttons in order. one of them has to do something.

>>166292
What's that little line below the monitor?

The room is filling with a lighter-than-air gas. This warrants investigation. Is the gas level getting any lower?

If not, try pressing the magenta button.

McStick pushes the buttons. It yields no positive results. More gas comes in. The monitor is loading something.

 

A video plays on the monitor.

right... the computer this is hooked to is tripping balls. try that crack in the wall under the monitor.

Try Red, Green, Yellow, Magenta/Pink, and White. I would swear I saw those in that order around 0:18.

>>166891
I think it should be flipped around. The red one comes last and the red one coming last seems to be a common theme in the song.

Also possible that the white one should be yellow, and the yellow should be orange. Because I can't see a white button there.

Also, the computer may very well be tripping balls.

McStick opens the box and is disappointed to find no smarties.

However.... You obtain KEY OF THE RED ONES. It is the very last thing in the box. Considering there is nothing else.

Your inventory is full, however you may be able to carry some small objects, like the key and shoelace, in the Smarties box.
