[ Once you enter the Escape Room, a series of messages pops up on your phones: ]

TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Wellll it looks like Naffy's out of commission? It'll take her awhile to reboot with how hard she just got hit by the autocensor!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Whatever you did, it really made her mad! Haha!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Anyway since I know what's going on now, I'm happy to help! It looks like the nature of the threat is a gang war between an evil thought sealed and another that you all and your fans helped to return to the world of the not-so-living? Wild!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: In case you didn't get the memo, this means you're going to explore the combination WcDonald's and Damned Queen's Cookies!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: There you'll find something you're looking for, probably…? But mostly you're looking for a way to contain the outbreaks!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: And fortunately, we've received a message from a friendly entity known only as "The Borger King", who apparently has a stake in the downfall of Lonard's lost empire…
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: It says:
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: There is a war going on for your mind. Steal their secrets. Create the Ultimate Prankburger. The king awaits. Salvation will come.
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Wow! It looks like it's time for corporate espionage, or something?
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Anyway, you get to keep everything you find, unless it's a dolphin! That's mine.
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Better get going! Charge!!!!!

[ And then everything goes white... ]

Skylark: Funzone bad

Kino: What happened?

Skylark: Attractions trying to fucking kill us that's what
Skylark: Also we might have incurred the wrath of Lonald WcDonald?
Skylark: He hasn't made an appearance yet, so I guess there's that

Kino is typing...

...

Kino is typing...

Kino: That does sound bad.

Skylark: So!
Skylark: Funzone bad, 0 out of 10 would not recommend
Skylark: Unfortunately, there's still one more attraction we have to search unless I want to take my chances with the ballpit again

Kino: Have you found any goddesses or idols there?

Skylark: So far, no

Kino: We found two, and there's only one more... I think.
Kino: So if you find one, let me know.

🐺: Does kind of sound like it should be in here
🐺: The carousel's great btw

[ —Irritable pause. That's not what he meant to type. ]

🐺: Does something to you after you ride it tho

Kino: I think I'll stay out here, but thank you.

🐺: Probably the right move
🐺: Although we might need a revive in a sec here
🐺: I'm going back into the ballpit

Kino: Alizarin's going in. I'll stay out here so we don't lose everyone.

Serenity: Okay hang on-- I'm uh. Cursed right now but I'll come send you some drugs to help!

[ on the one hand he does have a status ailment, on the other hand ]

🐺: And you're sure you're not cursed because of the drugs

Serenity: Oh I'm sure. I'm cursed because I'm carrying a cursed idol. The drugs definitely helped.

[ SUCH A LONG PAUSE. No typing notification, just staring at your message. Eventually: ]

🐺: Cool

Serenity: So do you want the drugs or not???

🐺: I mean sure
🐺: The only thing that's actually stuck to me so far is dehydration but I'm sure it'll get worse

The only side effect is a craving for pizza and honestly there are a lot of worse things. I'll send some through the drop box!

🐺: Thanks
🐺: Might come in handy after I go back into the ballpit
🐺: Carousel was great btw

[ COOL, AGAIN. Irritable pause. ]

🐺: Apart from the compulsion to keep saying that to everyone I talk to

I'mmmm gonna guess it's pretty rough over there too. If you need more there are more boxes, just let us know.
We may be in different areas but we can help each other out!

Also... if you find anything cursed, BEDE can apparently fix it! I cured the item I was carrying.

🐺: Oh that's neat
🐺: The curse curing I mean
🐺: Not so much the other thing
🐺: I've been sending photos and stuff with the dropbox
🐺: Also a record Lark mentioned

I have two idols now, the uncorrupted uh... Hatsune Macaroni...
And Umi Sonoda? So I guess if either of them mean anything to you guys let me know.
Oh and I sent two vials of drugs over so pick them up when you get a chance!

Skylark: Excuse me?

Sorry, curse is fixed now! Nothing to worry about.

But more importantly!! If you're dealing with any rough effects, we have drugs that will help. Side effects include a craving for pizza. But they're safe, I tried them.
