01<@Ardweden> [Day: Tuesday, September 21. Time: ?] 01<@Ardweden> [Hien and Imp just glided to the bottom of a skyscraper in a very strange city, where the stars are all falling. On the way, they had the feeling that someone was watching them... in any case, at the bottom, they were accosted by a dream alien being who demanded they take pictures with him/her/it. In pantomime!] 01<@Ardweden> [They did that, and then headed in to find their companions, who are taking their sweet time getting to the ground floor.] 01<@Ardweden> [Said ground floor, incidentally, is a giant freaking water fountain, with koi and little waterfalls. It's quite impressive, really.] 01<@Ardweden> [Session Start.] 06* Imp is otop of Hien instead of ini the fountain but he did ask first. "So, where to?" 06* Hien looks around to see if there's a door or any sort of exit. 01<@Ardweden> [There's a few elevators, and also stairs that head up. Mist clings to the ceiling.] Let's see if I'll fit on the stairs. You won't agree to riding the elevator will you? Well, we don't know what floor they're on, so we'd have to stop at each one. Do you think that'd be faster? I think it would be easier..and stairs do that whole turning thing and you look like an over sized sofa to me. 06* Hien snorts, amused. "All right, then." She heads for the elevators. 06* Imp stays on Hien's head just glancing around here and there trying to take everything in. 01<@Ardweden> [An elevator door opens for Hien and Imp before long, and the inside is done just like the out, complete with mist on the ceiling and water in the floor. Will this even work?] Wacky. Let's give it a go. 06* Hien enters the elevator and looks at the buttons. 01<@Ardweden> [There are a number of buttons! But any labels on them are completely jumbled, the numbers (or letters or symbols?) unrecognizable.] 01<@Ardweden> [There are over thirty of them.] Hm. Which one is for the next floor? Press the one that looks like a multi armed monster is playing a hotdog saxaphone. Multiarmed means Kali, right? That makes as much sense as anything else. 06* Hien pushes the button! 01<@Ardweden> [Going up! The elevator moves smoothly, and as it does, it shifts - the mist moving to the floor, or to the sides, the walls and ceiling and floors and even music (or lack thereof) changing as it does so: sometimes metal, sometimes wood, sometimes it seems like there isn't any floor or walls at all.] 06* Imp is very thankful he can fly right now, but just stays on Hien's back where he was placed. 06* Hien looks all over the place. 01<@Ardweden> [Hien sees herself! Making goofy faces at her, and Imp doing a handstand. 01<@Ardweden> [But then it's gone.] 06* Hien taps her foot. "Man, dream elevators are even slower than real ones. Guess I shouldn't be surprised." 06* Imp shrugs. "It's like one of those stupid hidden loading screens." At least it's got some animation to it. True. 01<@Ardweden> [Eventually you guys get to the tentacle monster with hotdog saxaphone floor! Or, uh, whatever it's called. The doors slide open to reveal a floor that's humid as hell with metal plating on the walls, poor, flickering lighting, and screams echoing through the hallways.] ...yeah, this sounds fun. Shall we? Or do you want to try another floor? 06* Imp glances around. "Nope. We gotta take a look." Okay. 06* Hien steps out of the elevator and is immediately on her guard. 06* Imp stays on Hien's back for now. So, call out, or don't tempt the mass serial killer in the horror floor? I'd say let's not alert things that might be attempting to deliberately maim us. Right, well then, lead on. 06* Hien snorts. "Don't hear that very often." She takes a look around the halls. 06* Imp watches the elevator door to try to make sure he knows the way back. 01<@Ardweden> [It's an elevator! Behind a door! Exciting!] 01<@Ardweden> [Hien and Imp make it to the stairwell without incident (possibly because the GM is being lazy), and above they hear Kali and Susano-O's voices echoing, along with one they don't know.] 06* Hien looks over at Imp. "Good job," she says quietly. "Let's go up." 06* Imp nods and will hop off Hiens back to try and hold the door. 01<@Ardweden> (Um, logistics, what is Imp doing? Holding the elevator door?) (Stair door?) 01<@Ardweden> (Ah, okay!) 01<@Ardweden> [Imp holds the stair door open and Hien goes up!] 01<@Ardweden> (And is welcome to join the others in the main chan.)
