G R E E N > You enter the door and find yourself in a glass box, suspended in the deep, dark ocean. Darkness surrounds you on all sides and once in a while, the box shakes. It'll be clear enough after a while that that's because of the movement of the water. The deep, dark water that they're surrounded by. Once in a while, something moves in the darkness, unnaturally large and much too close for comfort. Then... the noises. The moans and hisses of things living out there, in the deep. Then the words appear: |

[also she's slumped up against a leaking wall, so water is totally pouring over her]
Ugh! Blech! Hey, a little help here?!
no subject
Yeah he scrambles back over a little carefully to like. Try to help her up with one good arm.
It's not going so great.]
... We're a disaster.
no subject
[she does her best to climb to her feet, and although she manages, she sure is putting a lot of weight against Alice]
Completely and utterly! Who could've predicted this?
no subject
TRUST HIM.
Anyway.
...SIGH.]
What do we do? Our names are all on that spinner again.
no subject
Weeeeeeell. We could spin the wheel and offer them something nice. Something like. . . "taking away whatever negative effects happened during the dice portion of the game!"
no subject
... Did anything bad even happen to them? [GRUMBLING.]
You got hit twice, and I got hit twice...
no subject
[said bluntly, and then she sighs]
There's also the chance our spins land on you or me. It might be a good opportunity to undo our own misfortunes.
no subject
I don't like that. That sounds extra shitty.
no subject
Well then!
Option B: do nothing and be eaten by Cthulhu.
[WHOEVER CTHULHU IS she just overheard Chidi using that name]
no subject
Ughhhh.
[ALICE THAT'S NOT HELPFUL.]
no subject
I'm sure not moving anytime soon.
. . . so. In the end, it's up to you and Chidi what you want to do. Mostly you, since you were affected like I was.
no subject
... Nothing's gonna change if we don't do something, right?
Or we're gonna get eaten by a slimy gross sea monster. So I guess...
[HE GUESSES....]
I'll spin it.
no subject
[quite seriously]
Be careful.
no subject
Yeah. I know.
[ANYWAY HE SPINS.
IT'S INCREDIBLY STUPID.
Does anything happen, oh game master, or does he get to spin again?
Meanwhile Alice is just staring, agape:]
Seriously?
no subject
. . . wow! And I thought my gambling luck was horrendous.
no subject
Uhhhh...
[UHHHHH]
no subject
Your possibilities are endless! You could fix your paper arm, or whatever else was done to you in the last puzzle.
[or he could pick something stupid because he's a MORON, that's fine too. she ain't gonna (outwardly) judge]
no subject
He hesitates a long moment, staring at said paper hand. But if it really comes down to it, what he's always wanted so much more than anything physical is--]
Then... I want to give myself my memories back.
[He almost doesn't think that'll work.
Because it'd be too good to be true.
(SO HE THINKS.
IT IS ACTUALLY JUST TERRIBLE. A TERRIBLE WISH.)]
no subject
I LOVE YOU GUYS 😂🥰
LET'S WAIT FOR SPIDER-TEAM TO SPIN
😘

no subject
[also she won't judge she won't judge she won't judge--]
[(she can't judge!! regaining missing memories sounds really great right about now!!)
. . . not bad, kiddo.
no subject
Prob'ly not even gonna work... and then I'll be fucked again.
[He says this because he is Too Afraid to get his hopes up about getting his memories back.
Even though!!
His hopes are up!!
Despite himself. Good job, dumbass.]
no subject
[pats the ground next to her, though the movement takes quite a bit of work]
Hey. Come sit with me.
no subject
no subject
[and drops it on his head]
[. . . in a single pat because the effort of lifting her hand for another pat is too great]
