Paint Adventure - Lv. 3

Continued from the combined narrative of this thread and this thread.

Tie the intestine around your neck so the other man can climb up.

Climb the intestine tied to the other man's neck.

You sling the intestine around your neck like a shawl. How glamorous. I'm ready for my close up, Mr. Deville!

























You now control the pumpkin-headed man.

Eat the pumpkin portions just cut out of the head-pumpkin (to lift your spirits and maintain your strength!)

Damn. The pumpkin portion is a little too big for the mouth hole.



You think to yourself, "If I didn't have my trusty knife with me, I think I'd slit my wrists!"

Of course! You forgot about your get out of jail free card!



This is not a get out of jail free card.



You are suddenly this guy. You are taking a strong interest in this door, and what's inside. You think to yourself, "I will probably go through this door no matter what other stupid idea pops into my mind!"

[Andrew]

>FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GO THROUGH THE DOOR!!

You step through the door, which instantly slams behind you and makes a locking noise. You have a feeling it is locked. In the room is a wall which has 3 pumpkin shaped recesses. One has a happy face, another sad, the other, scared or surprised or something. There is a fresh pumpkin on a pedistal, and a carving knife next to it.



The room seems to extend very high up. It might even go all the way to the roof up there.

Carve the pumpkin into a surprised face!

[Betelgeuse]

>Carve a sad pumpkin, put it on your head, and shove your new pumpkinface into the sad recess

[tynic]

Too slow, little fishy! Too sloooowwww!

[Andrew]

Carve the pumpkin into a surprised face!

With your most determined face, you set about turning the pumpkin into a work of art.



You really suck at carving pumpkins!

[Betelgeuse]

>Put it in the sad recess

[Andrew]

>Put it in the sad recess

You are not deterred by any theoretical discrepancies between your handywork and the pumpkin spec. Nor do you feel you have to put the pumpkin in the correct recess.



Fits like a glove.



Removing the pumpkin from the pedestal may have triggered some event, however.

Drink as much as you can as fast as you can.

You can't believe how stupid that idea is!!!





But it's worth a shot, I guess.

Plug up the hole with a pumpkin.

[Andrew]

Plug up the hole with a pumpkin.

You figure it's about time you took off this silly and uncomfortable pumpkin armor and put it to good use.









There must be something that can stop the terrible flow of this water! Possibly some mechanism! Maybe right in this room!

Maybe it's the surging, cruel water rising inexorably, but you're suddenly much more inspired to put concerted effort into refining your craft. You hone your willpower into that of a master sculptor. Each slice, each contor of the knife bends to your will. Yes. Yes!



The results are breath taking. The expressions are human emotion incarnate. Why, are these pumpkins, or fellow men rapt within the human condition?



No time for reflection, though.



As you wait for something to happen, you think at the very least, maybe you could float to the opening in the ceiling, even though you're not a great swimmer.





As the water engulfs your head, you hear another distant mechanical sound.

[Andrew]

Luckily for the cause of suspense, you are now the other guy in his cell, wondering exactly what to do. There is a noise.





The secret door opens to the adjacent cell.



These two have been long dead. You wonder what kind of moronic adventures they were up to. You guess you'll probably never know.

Bring the gun along in case you have to off yourself.

[Andrew]

Bring the gun along in case you have to off yourself.

You pick up the firearm. You now feel powerful and confident. Unfortunately there is nowhere on your person to "pack the heat".



A violin string seems to suit the purpose well.
