It was... like a lab? There were lots of tubes with... human-like things inside them. There was a decontamination chamber, and observation chamber and a lot of smaller rooms as well. One of them was a bedroom?
... [ well she looks honestly curious, but less so about alliterative store names. ]
Yes. Pretty much. There were all these test tubes around the place — big ones, but almost everything in them was dead, or unresponsive.
When finally got to use the lift, we got cornered by something else pretty much as soon as we got to the top floor. It kept talking to us, and trying to look human and there wasn’t anything we could do to stop it. We both passed out and when I woke up we were back out here again.
[ hold up, she was dealing with Trauma at the time. ]
... It was difficult to make out? But I think it was - "Do you believe you can change destiny? Time has already been written... There's nothing you can do now, is there? Except try again. But you'll never make it..."
And just before we passed out, it said "Not yet. But remember, this is your last chance."
[ not at all concerning in the slightest, actually. ]

[A something, huh? That makes him wonder, but...he won't pry, for now.]
Sure. I'll teach you. That way, if it ever happens again, you'll have something up your sleeves to pull out when you need it.

Good! I mean, thank you.
Just... anything that can help. I'm not going to be able to knock a nightmare ooze monster out, but... if I can slow it down? That'd be enough.
[ nightmare... ooze monster... ]

[BACKTRACK ON THAT??]
That's what you fought??

... would you believe blanca and shiro though they'd sent sora and alex on the safer route? ha ha. ]
Yes?
[ ... ]
Well, uh. Ran from, more like. [ ... ] I threw a pillow at it?
no subject
[He just looks. Very unamused.]
A pillow.

There wasn't anything else we could use? Sora pulled the casing off something to use as a shield but it wasn't very strong.
[ she threw a duvet over it too. but she's not saying that out loud now?? ]

We were looking for a keycard to use the lift.

[Hm.]
That sounds like something out of a science fiction novel. Human-like things? And then a big oozy thing chasing you?

[HM!! What could it mean...]
Last chance at...what, exactly?
no subject
I don't know. After that last part I got a searing headache and passed out.
[ and didn't wake up until everyone else did the hard work of getting out of there. ]
