Network Prompts
ONE: LISTEN, DOLLFACE It's no secret that dolls have been the talk of the town, lately. People have been finding them all over Norfinbury: some rag dolls that seem particularly relevant to the Prophet, and some that are unsettling without the apparent connection. Still, it's surprising when you found a doll that looks like another one of the residents. You turn to the network, feeling unsettled, unsure what this could mean. Maybe you aren't alone, or maybe someone has a theory? Come to think of it, you're pretty sure that someone else mentioned finding something similar.
TWO: TIPTOES.EXE IS HERE Sometime today you find an SD card that downloaded an app to your tablet. It's titled HIDEANDSEEK and has the picture of a doll as its icon. When you open it, it seems like it's a game to play against a digital opponent: a doll. The game appears to have two stages. In the first stage, the doll hides, and you need to travel around the house (is it just you, or does the layout of this house seem to always be the house you're in when you open it?) to find the doll. In the second stage, you need to hide yourself from the doll, and listen for its movements so it can't catch you.
If it does catch you, it will be holding a knife. The screen goes red and the game crashes for the rest of the night. Somewhere on your body, a gash appears. It's nothing fatal, but maybe you should talk to someone about this on the Network.
Action Prompts
THREE: STRANGE THINGS DID HAPPEN HERE The house that you've found seems promising in terms of useful items to take with you, so you and your traveling companion have spent all day scouring the house for items. At first, everything's fine. Neither of you find or feel anything out of the ordinary. Lockdown approaches, you go to sleep without any additional trepidation...but an odd creaking noise fills your dreams. It gets louder in your ears until you can't stand it anymore and snap awake. When you open your eyes, it's there hanging just above you, swinging in a nonexistent wind: a doll with a broken neck, a noose tied around its neck. It looks just like you.
FOUR: LOOK BEHIND YOU Maybe you're not unsettled by dolls--and maybe neither is your companion--but one thing is for certain: this house you've been locked into for the night has an odd, oppressive feeling to it. Maybe it's just because it's full of dolls, though they all seem ordinary enough. Nothing strange happens at first, but as the night goes on...you finally notice: wasn't that porcelain baby doll on the other side of the room the last time you were in it? Didn't you turn that other one to face away from where you were sleeping?
The more the night goes on, the more obvious the movements become--sometimes, you even swear you hear the pitter patter of little feet. But nothing ever happens when you're watching. Maybe it's just your imagination. Or maybe, you realize in frustration, your traveling companion is trying to scare you. But is your paranoia worth the confrontation if it is? And will you even believe them if they swear their innocence?

weve got ourselves parked in a psychological shit show jamboree
practically in silent hill out here
wait around long enough and an estranged dad will wander around the corner
have you seen my daughter
sure have mr mason and shes new and improved in eerily accurate doll form
hand her on over while he gapes
congrats its a stuffed simulacrum of everything thats wrong with this place
actually im kidding
because this place is just too fucked up for a single doll to contain
we need ourselves a doll house for this shit
but guess what we got one
or as good as one
because the ones with eyes are what people are gathering so we can open the door to even more horror show suffering
hope you brought snacks
because we might all die of starvation if theres not another food source on the other side
just little norfinbury things
no subject
Thanks, Davesprite. ]
Wait, you're telling me we actually want these stupid things so we can open some sort of gate to another dimension???
Because that's what I got out of your rambling bullshit.
[ Considering she fights Angels, that's not actually that unbelievable. ]
What the fuck kind of place is this?
no subject
im talking a literal door to more of the town here
but yeah we want to gather the dolls
at least thats the best guess people have about how to get it open right now
this place is big on frustrating puzzles
what it is kind of depends on perspective
its a city in alaska
its a torturous death trap that will fuck us up with hallucinations
its a social experiment gone wrong
hope you like questioning your subjective reality for months on end
cause i sure dont
no subject
This is insane. Literally INSANE, because I've never even been to Alaska and there's no way in Hell I'd want to go there!
This has to be some kind of fucked up nightmare. That's the only explanation for this crap.
How long have YOU been stuck here, anyway?
no subject
alaska doesnt exist anymore back where im from because the whole entire universe the earth was in is dead
and trust me im not saying suck it up because this place is too busy doing the sucking so hard that everyone of us hissing on straws wouldnt counter the force of it
what i am saying is that youre not in kansas anymore kid
ive been here about a month
no subject
What the Hell have you been doing for a whole month? There's got to be a way out SOMEWHERE, right?
[ This can't be happening. ]
no subject
or skaia
or my friend john
take your pick
its not important to whats going on right now unless you want to forget the pressing shit and trade apocalypse stories
but im gonna guess that a no
ive been busy trying to survive while gathering info and traveling across santas radioactive workshop
and the way out is simple
get to the center
but getting to the center is the hard part because everything is locked behind like a billion shitty puzzles
which i already said when you were grilling me on the dolls so good job paying attention
no subject
no subject
i aint holding you hostage here
whats your name anyway
no subject
I'm Asuka. Who are you?
no subject
bitch to the info sharers and youre not gonna get the info
simple equation
1 + 1 = chill out and take the resources instead of slapping them out of peoples hands

no subject

no subject

and sprites are technically game guides in the one i played
hold up
[He swaps to video, because it's easier. He's got the standard newbie coat on (in bright orange) plus a sun hat, in addition to the usual shades.]
'Sup?
no subject
[ Asuka's pretty sure that's bullshit. Oh, hey, video-
That's weird. Asuka boggles. On Dave's end she can probably see her, also in newbie coat (red). She narrows her eyes. ]
What the hell happened to you? No - what are you?
no subject
[To the second part, he could offer a full, honest explanation...]
Someone let a crow loose in the nacho factory.
[Or he could do that. Shrug.]
no subject
[ Nope. Nope, nope, nope. ]
Right. Crow in a nacho factory. That explains why you burn peoples' retinas just by wandering into their field of view.
no subject
[If she's not going to take the help that's literally right there, then he has no obligation to lay off the ridiculousness.]
no subject
[ Asuka's nose wrinkles. She's not an American, so she really has no idea what that even means. ]
If you're just going to make fun of me, stop wasting my time!
no subject
But here's an idea: you want me to stop wasting your time, how about you stop being the stubborn horse and drink the water I'm trying to bring you to?
no subject
no subject
[So instead he starts doing crow caws at her like a jackass.]

Fuck off, bird-boy!
