Perpendicularities

[Dfaran]

IMPORTANT NOTE: Perpendicularities is paired with another story, called Parallels. You cannot make suggestions for both stories. Once you've suggested five things between the two topics, I will assign you to whichever topic got more of your posts and only take your suggestions there. Multiple posts for the same update don't count.
There may be a competitive aspect to this. Or a collaborative one. Or both.

PERPENDICULARITIES
*
You are lost in a nameless tundra. Cruel, craggy gray peaks jut from the horizon, and all else is snow. The sun may be up there somewhere, but you'd never know it, since thick and heavy clouds fill it for as far as you can see. You are COLD, you are HUNGRY and you don't even have a NAME.
There is a small igloo in the distance.

You are carrying:
-A flashlight

[Coyote]

Go to igloo.

[thegreenspark]

> Carry rock.

UPDATE OR DIE

Give him time! Updates don't happen instantly!

[andanotherone]

[Dfaran]

Never fear, I'm in the process of updating at this very moment.

[andanotherone]

YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO UPDATE.

[Dfaran]

But I don't want to die!

[andanotherone]

YOU CAN'T DO WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND LIVE.

[earthexe]

Have a look at the top of that mountain. Is there something there?

[Dfaran]

CARRY ROCK
*
It's too heavy for you to lift, but you do manage to roll it over. Hurrah!
That was satisfying, but didn't seem to accomplish much.

HAVE A LOOK AT THE TOP OF THAT MOUNTAIN. IS THERE SOMETHING THERE?
*
Well spotted! It does look like there's something up there. It's much too far away for you to make out, though.

[Plagorath]

> Look back. Is there some kind of path to a cave?

[Blacklemon67]

> Oh my god, is that pikachu?! at the top of the mountain? go geddit!

[Ashtastic]

Become the unicorn.

[Gana0]

Head towards igloo. Shake all the snow off.

> Use the flashlight to crack the rock open.

[Dfaran]

LOOK BACK. IS THERE SOME KIND OF PATH TO A CAVE?
*
Doesn't look like it. All you can see are your own footprints, trailing forlornly into the distance until they disappear around a mound of snow. There wasn't any warmth or food back there, either.



OH MY GOD, IS THAT PIKACHU?! AT THE TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN? GO GEDDIT!

Well, it could be a pikachu.


Then again, it never pays to jump to conclusions.

In any case, you've never even heard of a pikachu.



USE THE FLASHLIGHT TO CRACK THE ROCK OPEN
*

You are carrying:
-A broken flashlight
- 2 C batteries



HEAD TOWARDS IGLOO. SHAKE ALL THE SNOW OFF (of the igloo)
*
You shake the igloo, but all you succeed in doing is getting snow all over your hands. It's made of snow, so how can you shake the snow off? There would be nothing left!
On the other hand, you think you can safely conclude that nobody's home, since they'd have come out of the igloo to see what the commotion was. So it wasn't a total loss.

Okay, from now on I'm only using one or two suggestions per update. Too many drawings is too many.

[earthexe]

That's no Pikachu. That is obviously an Electabuzz.

[Gana0]

Name: "Stickaroo"

>Wipe all the snow off of body

[Dfaran]

>NAME: STICKAROO
*
You consider the name "Stickaroo." Sounds more like a pet's name than a name you'd want. Still, at this point you'd be happy to use that name. It's too bad you don't have it.

>WIPE ALL THE SNOW OFF OF BODY

You are carrying:
-A broken flashlight
-2 C batteries

*
You aren't holding one of those.

[GreyGabe]

>Crawl into the igloo.

[Jaded_Teen]

>Crawl into the igloo.

THIS.

Also, I've chosen this adventures, BTW. I'm deciding not to post on Parralels. I'm telling you this, to make it easier to track who's where.

[Reecer6]

>Crawl into the igloo.

THIS.

Also, I've chosen this adventures, BTW. I'm deciding not to post on Parralels. I'm telling you this, to make it easier to track who's where.

And so, I've chosen Parallels.

>CRAWL INTO THE IGLOO
*
You were hoping for some warm blankets, or some food, or something to tell you where you are. Maybe even a NAME. Instead, there's just a metal plate lying on the ground and some kind of sign.
It's a bit warmer in here, but you're still COLD.



Okay, JadedTeen is officially a Perpendiculator and Reecer6 is a... Parallelogram?
