We should probably start getting ready for work honestly.

Checking the shadows in our closet couldn't take that much time

I don’t think we have enough information to get prepared for work right now; we don’t know where our work is, what our job is, etc. Besides, our uniform is probably in our closet, so we might get started on that anyway.

We should probably get clean before we get dressed, but there’s no harm in checking on this.
I don’t think it currently matters which scene is real, because they’re both essentially identical currently.

Action Phase 2
Current Time: 6:03

You take a deep breath, and move towards your closet...

Note: Time keeps confusing me for some reason, but I'll just always do it in the action phase and the current time at the beginning of the phase will be based on the time required for the previous phase (i.e. one minute for sitting up, two for opening the curtains. I may have to eventually curve this somehow like maybe 5 minutes minimum for each action, but we'll see how time flow works once you start doing longer tasks).




OBJECTIVES:

Keep your Job (Foundational): 0 / 5
The total of all success points from work related tasks has to be greater than failure points. And you also have to get to work. And not get outright fired.

Success Points: 0
Upgrading: Get a promotion!
Subverting: Be late.

Failure Points: 0
Upgrading: Do something really silly on top of getting fired.
Subverting: At least you're rehireable?

Dating With a Twist (Foundational): 0 / 5
The total of all success points from date related tasks has to be greater than failure points. And you also have to get to the date. And not outright scare your date away.

Success Points: 0
Upgrading: Really hit it off, like, second date is no problem.
Subverting: Be late.

Failure Points: 0
Upgrading: He's friends with another cute guy from the office. Why'd you had to screw that up, too?
Subverting: At least he didn't run away screaming?


Success Points: 1

PONDER PHASE 3

SCENE 1
You GAZE into your closet, searching for the SHADOWS that lurk in it. No luck, and you MOVE closer to the closest to PEEP THE HORRORS that exist within.
Oh.
It's a cat
IT'S YOUR CAT! She MEOWS at you. She is HUNGRY and, you should FEED her NOW

SCENE 2
Upon opening your WELL BUILT closet you are set upon by an EVIL feline! It claws and nips at you with MALICE and HATE before running off OUT of the room to cause DESTRUCTION and CHAOS somewhere else. You should probably stop focusing on the EVIL feline and start actually doing the chores you LOVE but frankly you don't really feel like it right now... maybe later you will have the MOTIVATION.

SCENE 3
Your mind is at peace as you take in the sights and sounds of the morning. Feeling a bit uneasy, you move towards your open closet to suss out what *entity* is at play here. You look down and feel something soft and furry touch your leg, and realize it's your cat! And she's currently snuggled up in some clothes you put off folding. She meows at you expectantly, and you realize that she is probably hungry! Poor thing!


Memory: You have a cat, with black fur and brilliant yellow eyes. And also you tend to procrastinate things.

Ponder Phase 3 is now active. Apologize for the delay! Trying to get these out faster, I have a format for copying and pasting now (tm).

...do we know that that’s the case? It’s not impossible that Vivalas might mess with the format of the real scene, too, in order to mess with us. Improbable, perhaps, and likely unprovable, but not impossible.

But yeah, scene 3 is probably the real one.

Glass is, as usual, correct.
Yep, as ever, I bestow upon Glass the expected +1
I'm gonna say we go with whatever Glass's idea is.

For lack of any other ideas, I want to feed Cat (and ourself) immediately. Also we haven’t left this room and know nothing about the rest of our house.
