[dormancy]

There is a click, a soft urging, almost whispered too soft to hear, but you can sense that you are being beckoned somewhere, lead to an elaborate open door with wood panels and great curls of gold leaf. You cannot see what is beyond the door, but it smells sour and sharp. Before you can turn over the thought of should you or shouldn't you, if you are the kind, there is a quiet push at your back and through the door you go . . .

Join #supersafe, because I like being misleading. When in doubt, use this for flower meanings if you character is the type . . .

"They won't escape . . . " "Where will you go? Where will you go? Can you go anywhere~?" "Gyahaha, we can play with them~!!"

Indeed, where will you go? What will you do?

You can see a few feet more, but any further is difficult to penetrate. There are shadows gathered to your left with some dim light behind them. The closest to you is easy to make out as a very disturbing Jack in the Box that is cackling.

[playfreebird]

[I guess we're going... left...?]

[fraternalorders]

[okay sure, left]

[dramatispersonae]

The laughter and voices whispering get louder. You have the feeling that someone is definitely there, though when you come near enough to see the Jack in the Box without Byakugan, it is sitting perfectly still.

"Oh, they're going to visit, Alice!" "A visitor, a visitor!" "It's almost tea time . . . "

[gives it a look]

...I doubt this is safe.

[fraternalorders]

Yes, you've made that clear.

[playfreebird]

[yes, but. i don't want you to get shanked]

[fraternalorders]

[well I don't plan on getting shanked]

[dramatispersonae]

You should plan on it. I mean . . . Are we pressing onwards?

[playfreebird]

[yes, yes we are]

[dramatispersonae]

There are more and more toys as you press on, and you can even sense some are moving behind you right after you step by them. Eventually, you come upon a door frame with the door swung open to a small room. Do you enter?

[playfreebird]

[sure, let's]

[dramatispersonae]

You enter a very nice and completely safe room. The voices are quieter here, though there are still a few murmurs.

A girl all in white is seated at a small table, smiling to the two.

"Welcome~."

[fraternalorders]

Are we indeed?

[dramatispersonae]

"Yes! I was hoping for someone to play with~. Hehehe, we'll have lots of fun together, won't we~?"

[playfreebird]

What kind of playing did you have in mind?

[dramatispersonae]

"We could have tea~? It'll be like a party! Won't that be wonderful~?"

The dolls giggle under their breath in a chorus.
