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... ]

Ah - right. Sorry, dude.

[Also lowering his voice,]

Re: COMMUNICATIONS

[bondsofsuffering]

Hey. We're in a lobby with access to the Damned Queen's manor and a... freezer with an idol spewing evil magicks?

A gift box blew up in our faces but we're managing.

Re: COMMUNICATIONS

[unbr8kable]

Sounds like a lot? You need some Christmas nuggs?

Re: COMMUNICATIONS

[bondsofsuffering]

Some what.

Re: COMMUNICATIONS

[unbr8kable]

Between the presents and the fridge idol, you ain't come across a computer or nothing, have you? Apparently there's a memo what's gone out recently, but there ain't a copy of it here.

Re: COMMUNICATIONS

[bondsofsuffering]

Nope, haven't seen anything like that. If we can get past the fridge idol, I can keep an eye out?

Re: COMMUNICATIONS

[unbr8kable]

Nemesis!: whats fridge idle doing
Nemesis!: you need weapons ? looks like thers drop box here

Re: COMMUNICATIONS

[bondsofsuffering]

Izanagi: Fridge idol's just hanging out surrounded by dark magic I think?
Izanagi: A drop box?
Izanagi: We could definitely use weapons but I'm not sure where the drop box leads

Re: COMMUNICATIONS

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Nudging against her, after texting with Iznaagi for a bit]

Hey... Izanagi says the queen's bad business. Says we shouldn't listen to her song. I guess he fought her, before.

Re: COMMUNICATIONS

[unbr8kable]

What song? Can't be as bad as WcSoundtrack out here, can it?

Re: COMMUNICATIONS

[crossmyheartandhope]

Dunno. But we should look for earplugs, if we can find em.

Sounds like they're stuck where they're at.

Re: COMMUNICATIONS

[unbr8kable]

Fries.

--Lemme get some of those, btw.

[Attempts to yoink some fries and nuggies]

Re: COMMUNICATIONS

[crossmyheartandhope]

I ain't putting fries in my ears.

[He does offer some over, though. They ar GREAT fries]

Re: COMMUNICATIONS

[unbr8kable]

I bet they'd fit.

[Even her luxury bones hurt, but it's worth the extra ache for that just-out-the-fryer crunch]

...Mmmm. Those're real good.

Re: COMMUNICATIONS

[crossmyheartandhope]

Right? Best fries I ever had.

[Offering her some more]

Re: COMMUNICATIONS

[crossmyheartandhope]

Oh - hey. I found the poster.
