Yuletide 2 - Battle 1

[cascadingfailure]

[ Once you enter the Escape Room, a series of messages pops up on your phones: ]

TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Wellll it looks like Naffy's out of commission? It'll take her awhile to reboot with how hard she just got hit by the autocensor!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Whatever you did, it really made her mad! Haha!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Anyway since I know what's going on now, I'm happy to help! It looks like the nature of the threat is a gang war between an evil thought sealed and another that you all and your fans helped to return to the world of the not-so-living? Wild!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: In case you didn't get the memo, this means you're going to explore the combination WcDonald's and Damned Queen's Cookies!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: There you'll find something you're looking for, probably…? But mostly you're looking for a way to contain the outbreaks!
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: And fortunately, we've received a message from a friendly entity known only as "The Borger King", who apparently has a stake in the downfall of Lonard's lost empire…
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: It says:
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: There is a war going on for your mind. Steal their secrets. Create the Ultimate Prankburger. The king awaits. Salvation will come.
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Wow! It looks like it's time for corporate espionage, or something?
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Anyway, you get to keep everything you find, unless it's a dolphin! That's mine.
TOTAL⚓DISASTER: Better get going! Charge!!!!!

[ And then everything goes white... ]

WcDonald's - Dining Room

[cascadingfailure]

Now Playing - IiIiIiIiIiI



Welcome to WcDonald's! Though...it feels like there's a big too much Yuletide cheer here? The Damned Queen seems to have invaded recently, leaving her mark...There's a Lonard Wcdonard statue in the middle of the dining area, and it has a Yuletide hat on! Truly, horrific.

It is certainly busy. The mascots have expanded to not only be Lonard, but a number of others, including Grimace and whatever the hell this thing is. There's also…uh…a 3d mural…?

Don't ask.

The counter is at the back of the room from the entrance, past the booths and tables, behind the counter is the menu and the entrance to the Kitchen. To the left is the door to the F U N Z O N E.

[Don't like this,]

[Automatically just throwing an axe at the statue, gotta take advantage of that surprise round,]

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[cascadingfailure]

You have displeased Lonard.

Your weapon bounces off of him. Weakened though he is by the Damned Queen's invasion, he is still not to be trifled with. Your very soul is twisted painfully.

You suffer four of the following status effects:

- Minor burns
- Bone hurting (your bones hurt)
- Mild hypothermia
- Tinnitus
- Broken arm
- Broken leg
- Eyes bleeding
- Severed limb

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[unbr8kable]

[Well]

[Dropping to one knee]

[Also her arm falls off, i guess,]

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[crossmyheartandhope]

Xia?!

Jesus - !

[Running over to fall to his knees next to her]

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[unbr8kable]

...

[Well]

--Stay back, I-I got this.

[Does she though]

[She does attempt to move between him and the statue at least, with dubious success since hmm maybe a broken leg was one of the reasons for falling to a knee, oops]

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[crossmyheartandhope]

Your arm, though. Your leg.

[Helping her to stand, even as he reaches with his other hand to draw one of his heart blades]

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[unbr8kable]

'S fine--

[She winces harder than expected but gets up with his help, quickly stabbing herself in the thigh before she can talk herself out of it]

[Which. Kinda sick but hey, leg not broken?]

[In all this, doesn't(?) seem like the statue has moved any, so there is also that]

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[crossmyheartandhope]

Did he attack you? I didn't even see him move or nothing.

[He hates the stabbing but hey, at least she is in one piece]

[Also, keeping his weapon between the both of them and the statue,]

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[unbr8kable]

[Well. Her arm is still on the floor but she is working on it, slooowly crouching down while not breaking eye contact with the statue, just in case]

--Didn't wanna give it a chance. Just--didn't turn out like I thought.

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[crossmyheartandhope]

...maybe we oughtta go around or something.

It ain't doing nothing now, right?

[Stepping out in front to cover her so she can get that,]

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Wincing a little at the background music. He is vvvery tense at the sight of that statue, giving it a wide berth as he heads over to inspect the 3d mural, though lbr the mural is also bad,]

...well, this is awful.

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[cascadingfailure]

There does not seem to be anything particularly unusual about the mural. It is simply as jovial as Lonard himself is, even if it too has been partially marred by the Damned Queen's holly jolly magicks.

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Oh oops and then Nem lost an arm,]

[brb first things first,]

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Approaching the Lonard statue very, very carefully, to try and get that hat]

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[idolpro]

The statue of Lonard® radiates pure joviality. It seems to be the only thing keeping this place from succumbing entirely to Yuletide festivity in the wake of the Damned Queen's invasion and attempt to acquire it for her own cookie operation, but its jovial magicks have become weak.

You take the hat.

Lonard is pleased. As a result, you are cured of one status effect. As a result, you may ask one question and receive one answer.

A scrap of paper in the statue's hand reads:

The Three Goddesses must be found. Their magick is of the same kind as the Queen's, and are the only power that can truly defeat her.

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[crossmyheartandhope]

...where's the other ingredients for your secret burger?

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[idolpro]

THE POWERS OF JOVIALITY MUST BE UNITED. THE COOKIE SAUCE. THE SPECIAL SOUSE. THE JOVIALITY BUNS. AND PURE WATER...BUT YOU WOULD DO WELL NOT TO DISPLEASE ME...

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[crossmyheartandhope]

What's up with the King, anyway?

How come you and him don't get along?

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[idolpro]

That is three questions, which requires three answers. Do you wish to displease Lonard?

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[crossmyheartandhope]

Uhhh, nope, not at all. Just like. Pretend I didn't ask em.

But if maybe, like. Y'know. You wanna talk about yourself, some, to help me understand, without any questions......

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[idolpro]

THE AGREEMENT HAS BEEN BROKEN.

You have greatly displeased Lonard. The entire building shakes with rage and fury.

BULLET HELL MODE ACTIVATED.

Legendary Ballpit Ball WCDONARDs have been released and now form nearly undodgable curtains of bullets throughout the entire WcDonalds! This will make the coming battles much harder...

For now, all idols in the WcDonalds must roll 1d10.

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[idolpro]

You avoid the Legendary Ballpit Ball WCDONARD.

Re: WcDonald's - Dining Room

[unbr8kable]

[Unfortunate, since she was trying to get into that ball pit,]
