Man Squishers Interactive, Part 1: Welcome!
🕑 Added 2019-10-11 04:38:28 +0000 UTCYou had heard of a place called Man Squishers, but you just couldn’t believe the rumors. It sounded too good to be true. Instead of worrying about the details, you decided to find the address of the establishment and rushed to visit as soon as possible. You knew next to nothing about the place aside from a few online anecdotes, but you had to see it for yourself.
The whole drive there, you were telling yourself that it had to be some sort of elaborate prank or scheme. Was this place going to be dangerous? Should I not have come alone? These doubts filled your head even as you reached for the front door, but as soon as you took your first step in, you knew this was the real deal.
The bar was dark and lively, lots of people drinking and chatting in the glow of neon lights. While the dim lighting made it difficult to see, there was no mistaking the silhouettes of tiny people. Some were scampering across the open floor, others were floating inside alcoholic drinks, and others were sitting on a table playing some sort of...game? Before you could survey the room much more, a woman nearby suddenly addressed you. You were a bit startled, since you hadn’t even noticed her there when you walked in!
“Hey there hun, first-timer huh? Don’t‘chu none, I know it’s a lot to take in, but you get used to it real quick. We can get’cha started in no time, but I’m gonna need you to sign here at the bottom. I’d suggest reading it, but-“
Before the hostess could finish her spiel, you already took the pen she offered you and signed on the dotted line. The blonde beauty couldn’t help chuckling at the eagerness you displayed.
”Yeeeeep, that’s about what I expected. Well, the effects should start kicking in soon, so just explore and enjoy yourself! I’m Rowena, by the way. If you want me to give you a personal tour, then don‘t hesitant to ask. I always enjoy the new blood.” Rowena leaned toward you over her wooden podium, licking her lips before giving you a wink.
While Rowena’s offer was enticing, if for no other reason than giving you an excuse to continue chatting her up, there was a lot going on. Now that you got a better look, there seemed to be a Dungeons & Dragons game going on, ran by an enthusiastic goth girl. She was really into whatever part of the story she was currently regaling to her tiny players.
There was plenty of food and drink to be had, a bubbly waitress taking orders and delivering them, while a stoic bartender focused on cleaning a glass stein. There was also a weird golden statue on the far side of the bar, but it was hard to tell what exactly it was from here.
An empty stage with a mic stand took up most of the right side of the room. Nothing going on there right now, but apparently this place held performances and concerts pretty frequently.
Lastly, there was a chick smoking and leaning against the back wall who looked pretty familiar. You realized she was the owner, based on photos you had seen online. She might be a good person to talk to as a “first-timer,” but would you be bothering her? She seemed pretty distracted, and those doors she was standing next to looked interesting. Each of them were labeled “Members“ and “Only Staff,” so...those would technically be off limits. Technically. Perhaps you could become a member? Wonder what that entails.
There was so much to see, so much to do...it was all rather daunting. The question you had to ask yourself was this; what do we do first?
(A patreon poll will be posted after this with all the available options. I’ve been very excited to get this interactive story going, and I hope you all are too! Let me know what you think!
