ROUND 1

[ The room is BRIGHT YELLOW, as all the rooms you will enter are. Black tiles make up the floor, changing to your unit's color when pressure is placed on them. There is a button in the very center of the room standing on a podium; it's slightly smaller than palm-sized.]

[oh okay cool

immediately booking it for the button as fast as he can]

[EXCUSE YOU, SIR.

HE ALSO WAS BOOKING IT TO THE BUTTON AND YOU BETTER BELIEVE HE WILL TRY TO USE THE PUPPETEERING ABILITY WHEN HE'S WITHIN RANGE.]

[god fucking damnit he hates this ability]

...Hey, asshole. Let me go.

[guess who also hates this ability, but also isn't afraid to use it.]

No way.

[but he is still walking up to the button, so that means Doodleman is walking up to it too, so. there's that]

Hey. Wanna flip a coin to see who wins this one? To make it a little more fair.

[there's that!]

...Sure. We'll play it nice and fair.

[pulling out a coin from his pocket, don't worry about where he got it.]

All right.

Call it.

[flipping the coin]

[presumably still being puppeted so he's doing the same motion, ugh]

Heads.

[yep.]

Tails.

[spoilers:

it's tails]

My! How lucky!

Wow, good job! Go right ahead, then.

[he'll have to release the puppeting or they'll both press the button, right

come on, give the doodleman his chance]

[pfff.

well, all right.

he does try to move quick as soon as he's dropped the puppeting, because he sure as hell doesn't necessarily believe Doodleman will stay put

except ~~Allen Walker~~ Crown Royal's luck is absolute shit]

[doodleman does also have luck rank e

but his agility is rank a.

and he's using lightning flash to blind crown as an extra measure, too! he really really wants to be the first to push that button]

[BASTARD!!!

it gets him the half-second he needs, alas

but that's fine because CROWN IS GOING TO PUNCH DOODLEMAN IN THE FACE, AFTER]

[PUNCHED IN THE FACE

OOF]

[ah yes. the satisfaction of impact]

[rubbing at his face, owowow]

Guess I can't fault you for that.

I won't say I can't respect an underhanded tactic like that, but I will say you're a piece of shit for pulling it.

[damn it, why doesn't Baritones have more offensive abilities!!!]

No more than you are for using your ability.

[fat load of good either did him]

Not my fault they allowed for abilities.

Not my fault they allowed for lying.

[FLIPS HIM OFF]

[ With the button pressed, the unit color-lit floor opens up to swallow the loser whole before the tile swings back up, as if a cartoonish trap door. The door unlocks with a click, sliding open for you.

After about thirty seconds, if the winner does not proceed to the next room, the floor tiles will start moving up one row of tiles at a time, starting from the back wall - they tilt to a steep angle that rounds at the edges, even gaining a slippery quality to ensure that none may be able to get a grip on the tiles or move backwards. The winner will eventually be pushed out of the room and into the next one. (To be unlocked when the next round unlocks.) ]

♪ Twinkle, twinkle little star, no one wonders where you are. ♫

The circus music begins around you as you put on your mask. It is another starless night but it’s not like you would know underneath the tent. You can’t remember the last time you’ve been able to see the snow, but you can tell that it is winter once again due to the expensive coats the audience seems to be wearing.

You begin your performance, remembering your role. You exist as the clown, a clown to make the people happy. You are happy. You are happy! You[r mask is] are smiling. They laugh.

Ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Your body is rotting away. Everything hurts. Every finger that you move, every joint, it cries in so much pain, you can’t stand it. But you cannot stop, because if you stop, they will stop laughing. And they will die. A world without smiles is a world that dies, and you know this better than anyone. That’s why you have performed every night, every day, every hour, every minute, ruining your body further and further and further. They tell you “why don’t you stop?” But you continue, in fear of what would happen if you thought for yourself even once.

You hate them. Why do you have to suffer like this?

And for a moment, you thought of someone important to you and their words, “you can be kind to yourself, too.” And as soon as you stop smiling, you watch the bodies of the audience fall one by one. This is your fault, isn’t it? You cry under the mask, but you are still smiling. The mask on your face cracks, and blood starts to spill from behind it.

After all, your face became that mask a long time ago.

Take 3 or more punishment, at least 1 from each:

Physical:
> Uncontrollable laughter
> A mask you can't remove
> Cracked skin on the face, enough to where blood is coming out

Non-Physical:
> Increased selfishness
> Decreased selfishness
> Increased restlessness/unable to stop moving
