> You--AGENT WASHINGTON and PVT. CHURCH--enter the room and see a facsimile of a TOWNHOME'S LIVING ROOM, though something seems extremely off. For one, everything seems to be crammed in, and the SOLARIUM is painted on the wall, as is the KITCHEN and HALLWAY. However, before you, you can see TWO CLOSED DOORS--one to the NORTH and one to the EAST. Behind you to the WEST, the DOORWAY you came in is now stark white. You cannot see into the previous room. On the SOUTH wall is a blank VIDSCREEN.
> Enters room, takes three steps in before stopping. This gives enough room for the other two SOLDIERS to have room to enter. Or at least that's your plan, anyway.
[he turns as well, but doesn't sound distressed by the sudden disappearance of his fellow soldier. in fact, he sounds rather...casual about the whole thing] Oh, he's not here? Maybe he's still in the other room...
[defensively] Look bud, I'm not his babysitter! I don't get paid enough for that shit. You're supposed to be this big special Freelancer who needed our "help" so badly, so technically, he's your responsibility.
[he ignores that lip for now. the mission and making sure his squad is all present is far more important at the moment.] We're not going anywhere he gets here.
> You ignore the ANNOYING SOLDIER and proceed to walk over to the nearby VIDSCREEN and touch it experimentally. Might as well do something constructive to pass the time.
> You have activated the VIDSCREEN! Congratulations. You win the following text:
Choose your destination! If you wish to go to the kitchen, please press the "A" button. If you wish to go to the solarium, please press the "B" button.
>You see TWO BUTTONS appear, one below each choice and labeled as indicated in the text.
[he's secretly glad Church got shocked, though it does have an unfortunate side effect of making him complain more.] If you paid attention to the prompt, you would've seen that we have to press a button. I'm guessing it'll de-electrify the door.
[a sigh escapes his lips. he doesn't like to do it--but he also knows Church has a point and this way, there's only one person to do deal with and he doesn't have to listen to both of them argue the rest of the way.] All right, but leave him...a note or something so he knows to stay here and not go anywhere else.
> Walks back to the buttons and you decide to forgo asking for an opinion from CHURCH. It's much easier this way, you figure. You consider the choices, having no real conviction or believe that one is better than the other, and press the "B" button on the screen.
> Congratulations! You have opened a DOOR. More specifically, the SOLARIUM DOOR opens on its own; the doorway beyond is pitch black. You are not surprised, however, since you saw the same exact thing in the previous room.
[grumbles and drops a small sheet of paper on the ground. he figures that will qualify as leaving a note.] Yeah. Not that it'll do any good... [joins Wash]
The SUPER COOL PVT MICHAEL J. CABOOSE enters the room and basically sees the exact same thing as AGENT WASHINGTON and SUPER BEST FRIEND FOREVER. You have nothing else to add to the narrative. Yet.
Whoa--hey! How did we get here? ...And why is the room box-shaped?
