"I- I don't..."
"Um..."
"Spit it out!"
"I haven't, uh..."
"Um..."
"I'm sorry..."
"..."
"Then I've lost the trail."
"Slippery little bitch..."
"I'm really sorry, miss...?"
"Jill Valentine."
"It's okay, sorry for yelling."
"Carry on."

The police woman leaves. You feel both relieved and guilty over this turn of events and briefly consider following her, only to realize that you would most likely fail to divulge your information anyway. You are just so pathetic...

Oh wait, someone else is coming.

"hey, thanks for the save!"
"Oh!"
"It was... no problem. Really."
"hey... i don't think i've seen you around these parts."
"you're the new girl, aren't ya?!"
"Well... Yes."
"My name is Cosmo."
"no last name?"
"My people don't use family names."
"Because, well... We're plants."
"haha, i see your point."
"well MY people don't use last names because we're dead. :)"
"......Pardon?"
"oh, you couldn't tell? i'm a zombie."
"I..."
"I'm not sure how to react to that."
"heheh!"
"yeah, it's kinda farfetched."
"anyway, we don't use first names either."
"more like nicknames."
"for example, you can call me rottytops!"
"Well met, miss... Rottytops."
"Um, you keep saying 'we'. Are there more of you?"
"in this petal, no."
"that jill lady is pretty strict about zombie punishments."
"you steal one little apple and suddenly it's a life sentence!"
"she's probably some kind of racist. >:("
"What is a racist?"
"you serious?"
"haha, boy you have a lot to learn!"
"you want me to show you back to town?"
"Ah, no!"
"I already know where it is."
"Besides, I would not want you to expose yourself to that woman again."
"aww, how sweet~ :D"
"maybe I'll drop by your place later!"
"Erm."
"If you must."
"what, you don't want me to?"
"Actually, I think I might like that..."
"then it's settled!"
"i'll crash at your place tonight, while i'm at it."
"running out of hiding places to nap in!"
"Huh?"
"later!"

And just like that, she's gone again. Miss Rottytops is most definitely odd to say the least, and it's not just because she's apparently undead, either.

It occurs to you that she might just be your first real life friend, too. You really don't know how to react to this. Maybe you should just go to town now...

MysteryJack has successfully named both characters at the same time and gets the next cameo. You know, if I can find a good place to put him.

Also I fixed the eyes. Stop complaining. >_<

[evergreenWanderer]

Curses for being so slow. >C
>Cosmo: Go to town
e.
Here's some music in honor of seeing Rottytops in here.

Holy fuck, are you serious.

I'm so happy right now.

>Cosmo: Yeah, go to town.

>Jill: Be shouting at something else.

[BlueMagic]

>Cosmo: Teach her about MAKIN' BABIES

[MetalKirby54]

COSMO: Run into more people! There are bound to be plenty of wandering souls in this place!

==> Cosmo: Go to town.



You proceed to... Oh dear.

You carefully pass by Miss Jill and her well dressed acquaintance, trying your best to appear nonchalant and hopefully avoid a conversation. You would rather not be involved in her hunt for Miss Rottytops; Picking sides is a surefire way to make someone lose.

You can't help but listen in to some of the conversation as you pass by. You only manage to make out a few specific words, such as "the viral outbreak", "injustice", "it wasn't her fault", "shut your mustache", and "subjugglator". That last one gives you a very bad feeling, despite that you've never heard the word before.

==>



Two things immediately become apparent to you when you step onto the street. The first is that the entire town is constructed on a slope leading down to the ocean. The second is that you look severely out of place when you wear your crown of flowers here. Not that you plan on removing it anyway.

You first make a quick stop at an information center to pick up a map of the town. By the time you come back out, you notice the change in the sky's color. It seems to be getting late. You suppose it's worth mentioning that you began your trip at about dinner time, and, well, forgot the dinner part.

There is probably time to visit a couple of places before you turn in for the day. Locations of interest near you are a LIBRARY (you still love reading), a RESTAURANT, the POLICE STATION (which you promptly ignore) and of course, your HOME. Just outside of town is the FOREST that you had just exited from, and a BEACH at the bottom of the hill. There is also the VIRTUAL CORRIDOR that you recently exited from, but you can't go back through there without proper authorization.

Shall you go straight home, or do you still have some time to kill?

Never updating this late at night ever again. >_<

...Also, thanks so much for dat music, eW. You just gave me a neat idea for a [S] update. >:)

[KingTwelveSixteen]

>Go get food then head home for the night.

[MetalKirby54]

Cosmo: Get some grub, head home, but bump into more people.

[rogue of void]

>Library, go look up subjugglator

[RandomHobo4]

Now you're making Castlevania references with Julius Belmont. This adventure is awesome.

[Oblivion]

Nothing here makes sense and yet it is beautiful.

[Varkarrus]

My jaw dropped the moment I saw Julius Belmont.

[Krakash]

How many sprites do you have exactly? Damn. But it's good.

[ponytailArtist]

Now you're making Castlevania references with Julius Belmont. This adventure is awesome.

Looks like I'm about to make a Megaman reference too, old chap.

[evergreenWanderer]

Does this mean I get a cookie for supplying music?

>Cosmo: Go home
or
>Cosmo: Find a restuarant or someplace to eat

[lostWanderer]

Sweet, Julius Belmont, and he seems to not be a jerk!

Cosmo: Restaurants are open late, libraries aren't. Visit the library to get a feel for the place, and look up what a subjugglator is, while you're at it.

[newbonomicon]

A large number of video game characters actually exist in this setting.

Was... Was Karkat actually trained by Solid Snake?

Because if so, he has to get to shout "SNAKE? SNAAAAKE!" at some point. It's a contractual obligation.

[Elkian]

Get some dinner, check the library times, pop in if it's about to close, then head down to the beach and meet Marchzee

[MysteryJack]

>Cosmo: Get food. Food is important.

(Castlevania references? AWESOME.)
