The Cycle (a text adventure)

[The Martin]

OK, time for the rational part of Amy's mind to step into the fray. Look around the hole. How big is it? How wide and long, not deep.

Amy can't see how far the hole goes to either side. She can't see anything across, either.

I told you fools to take the bus!

Appease the abyss by giving it some sort of homage. Like that bottle cap!

Amidst all the confused thoughts in her head, a single clear impulse emerges and Amy acts on it. She flicks the bottle cap into the abyss and watches on as it falls until she can't make it out anymore.

So long, brave bottle cap. We hardly knew ye.

As east is no longer an option, she should head WEST towards the bus stop.

Are you mad?! Cthulu clearly has that in mind for Amy! Clearly the only way forward is to leap into the abyss!

Or not, but maybe I've just lost some san...

Well, which is it, gents? DOWN or WEST?

Mind, Amy might prefer not to jump down.

 

[Traxata]

Go to the bus stop!

 

[Angelic]

As much as I would love to explore the intricacies of THE HOLE, I think it'll be best if we let amy go to the bus stop, true. We have, after all, left the friend waiting long enough now. The holy won't run away, hopefully, and we can come back inspect it later.

 

[Bradstreet]

I say DOWN. The computer running this game seems suspiciously directive to me... and Amy appears to be a rabbit, so may have deep urges to explore holes.

 

[Nanor]

To the bus! We have an appointment, people!

 

[The Martin]

Bus 4, certain doom 2. Maybe next time, Bradstreet.

Amy arrives at the not-overly-fancy bus stop. The bus should be here in a while.

 

[Pingue]

Recycle Bottle! Recycle Bottle!!!!

 

[BiG D]

Recycle Bottle! Recycle Bottle!!!!

No! We need chaos! Throw the bottle in the bin that is quite clearly not for bottles!

 

[Nanor]

RECYCLE THE DAMN BOTTLE! I don't wanna be knifed by a hippie!

Also, read the poster on the bush shelter (providing it's not actually blank...).

 

[waterproofbob]

keep the bottle (who knows when you may need a weapon).

 

[Wraith]

Throw bottle on floor in a fit of anger that your nice walk in the park was ruined by a bloody big hole.

It's a bigger brother of the leaflet Amy left at home.

Recycle Bottle! Recycle Bottle!!!!

Amy feels so conflicted!

 

[Ronin Storm]

Given the recent arrival of an Alone in the Dark style crevasse and the potential to fill any given bottle with flammable substance, I say "keep the bottle".

Oh, and look at the times for the next bus. Refuse to acknowledge all buses numbered "666" or "911" or anything like that...

 

[Angelic]

Lol, that.

Also, recycle the damn bottle. Living a healthy life (carrot juice) I'm sure that's what Amy would like to do.

 

[SgtFury]

Man, Amy has alot of voices in her head . All with different alignments too, we could almost go from Lawful Good to Chaotic Evil in voices alone.

 

[thatbloke]

Put the bottle in the recycle bin.

Also, wait for the bus!

 

[Nanor]

Recycle the bottle and check the bus times.

 

[Pingue]

Whatever you do, make sure you don't miss the bus whilst trying to listen to the plethora of voices in your head.

 

[VibroAxe]

I feel a new voice is needed here, Put the bottle on the floor, if it rolls towards the recycle bin, recycle it, if not, bag it for a weapon later!


--*EDIT*--

Hang on a sec, we have a perfectly functional umberela, surley this makes a good weapon?

Recycle the bottle, perhaps Amy will gain a Fallout-esque feeling of increased Karma having done so, and perhaps this increased karma will lead to either (a. The Bus arrives on schedule or (b. The somewhat large whole that has inhabited the space where the park once was will be repaired by some workrabbits by the time Amy returns, so that she may relax in the park for a while. Also, after recycling the bottle, take a seat.
