8:12 PM <WetBeard> Perc if event.

8:15 PM <Glacon> LadyKatie: 7 (d9=7)
8:15 PM <RosyBud> d18
8:15 PM <Glacon> RosyBud: 4 (d18=4)
8:16 PM <WetBeard> Cordelia you hear something… A light… *Stissss* of steam… And… Parts? Moving.
8:17 PM <RosyBud> Amy's following Cordelia, btw.
8:17 PM <LadyKatie> Cordelia goes to check it out.
8:17 PM <LadyKatie> By now, she's probably aware that Amy's following her as well.
8:18 PM <WetBeard> There's a door, you can tell it's coming from behind it.
8:18 PM <RosyBud> Definitely. ~Freak.~
8:19 PM <LadyKatie> She opens the door
8:20 PM <WetBeard> The door slowlyyy creaks open, to reveal this: http://media-cdn.tripadvisor.com/media/photo-s/05/a8/9e/7a/iolani-palace.jpg
8:20 PM <WetBeard> You can hear steam and mechanical part operating behind the walls, floor, and roof.
8:22 PM <LadyKatie> ~Oh well that's lovely.~ She actually means this. It's pretty. She goes in to check it out.
8:23 PM <RosyBud> Amy shuts the door behind Cordelia. "Haaave fun!~"
8:24 PM <WetBeard> As you enter, very suddenly, the room dissolves…? No… The mechanical parts shift the walls, the floor around you, even the roof until you're in a different room all together: http://vz.cnwimg.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/ScottGreetingHall.jpg
8:24 PM <WetBeard> There's five paths, pick any.
8:24 PM <LadyKatie> Still pretty! Delia approves. She takes the third from the left.
8:25 PM <WetBeard> The middle?
8:25 PM <LadyKatie> … yeah, that would be the middle
8:25 PM <LadyKatie> huh.
8:26 PM <WetBeard> You head down the middle path, the hall is extremely extravagant, pure white polished marble, velvet rug… Until you meet this room, except, the organ is played by itself with no person there: http://rlv.zcache.com/pipe_organ_sydney_town_hall_greeting_card-re06d373ae7fd43c9b00085395cc7078a_xvuak_8byvr_512.jpg
8:27 PM <WetBeard> There's a painting in the center of the room.
8:27 PM <LadyKatie> (that is one beautiful pipe organ, not gonna lie) She checks out the painting!
8:28 PM <WetBeard> The painting is on it's own vertical slab of marble, there's a blank bronze inscription plate underneath it. https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/gUF52b2l/City.png
8:29 PM <LadyKatie> Interesting!
8:31 PM <WetBeard> The organ plays: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GeEYrDEt-4

8:32 PM <WetBeard> And of course, accompanied by the ever present sound of parts clicking, churning, pullying, working. Steam stissing.
8:32 PM <LadyKatie> This is nice. Delia likes this. So much better than some obnoxious fairy guy.
8:33 PM <WetBeard> Perc.
8:33 PM <LadyKatie> d9
8:33 PM <Glacon> LadyKatie: 3 (d9=3)
8:34 PM <WetBeard> Is… The painting… Moving…? Nah.
8:34 PM <LadyKatie> That is impossible!
8:35 PM <WetBeard> Indeed! Or is it! Upon closer inspection would reveal that the gears in the lower half of the painting are actually cut outs! There's /real/ gears in their place, slowly moving.
8:36 PM <LadyKatie> Oh, how cool!
8:36 PM <WetBeard> This room doesn't have much else to it.
8:36 PM <LadyKatie> Can she go back down the hallway to explore a different one?
8:37 PM <WetBeard> Of course! - Woah… The way she came in… It's no longer a stair case - It's a flat hallway that goes straight to a wall… However… Approaching it will cause mechanical parts to shift segments of the hallway back into a staircase and back into the main room. There's two other doors.
8:38 PM ⇐ Aphex_ quit (~null@F3471667:73B7A149:26F4EE89:IP) Ping timeout: 183 seconds
8:38 PM <LadyKatie> Let's go with… door number 2
8:39 PM <WetBeard> The white polished marble switches to a dark black counterpart until she goes into a large room, it's circular with the center being occupied by: http://lh5.ggpht.com/_hVOW2U7K4-M/Sk-00NVBK5I/AAAAAAABCuk/uFoXy4qh6Eg/s800/industory_HP.jpg
8:39 PM <WetBeard> It appears to be off.
8:40 PM <LadyKatie> Eeeeeeeeh, Cordelia isn't much of a machinist. She's not going to mess with that.
8:40 PM <WetBeard> Does she go back?
8:41 PM <LadyKatie> Yeah, maybe door number 1 has some more art behind it.
8:41 PM <WetBeard> It's a long hallway - Similar to the first, rich velvet carpet, in mahogany wood displays are these: http://img11.deviantart.net/d6ea/i/2006/358/0/c/steampunk_by_flyingdebris.jpg
8:41 PM <WetBeard> All, again, off.
8:42 PM → Aphex_ joined (~null@ED53E427:5E2974D0:26F4EE89:IP)
8:43 PM <WetBeard> They all have shiny blank bronze inscription plates.
8:45 PM <LadyKatie> Those are at least pretty machines.
8:45 PM <WetBeard> Does she return to the main room?
8:45 PM <LadyKatie> Yes, because she is still not a machinist.
8:46 PM <WetBeard> As she enters - There's no more doors.
8:46 PM <LadyKatie> (Though she was in an early concept, before I decided to make her a painter)
8:46 PM <WetBeard> Your surrounded by wall in all directions.
8:46 PM <LadyKatie> … wait, what do you mean no more doors?
8:46 PM <WetBeard> There's just wall - Even by the way you just came from.
8:46 PM <LadyKatie> What is going on here? And where is that obnoxious detective?
8:47 PM <WetBeard> *Clunk*
8:47 PM <WetBeard> The room drops down a bit, before slowly going upwards - Like an elevator.
8:47 PM <LadyKatie> … Cordelia looks for the source of the sound.
8:48 PM <WetBeard> Cordelia: You can the room is being slowly lifted upwards.
8:48 PM <LadyKatie> Interesting. Going up, I guess.
8:50 PM <WetBeard> Segments of the walls slowly rotate to the right until most of them are windows that have been painted white, one wall however is replaced by a doorway.
8:50 PM <LadyKatie> Let's go check out that doorway.
8:51 PM <WetBeard> It leads to a hallway, and as you step into it there's a loud creaking sound… And then a snap.
8:51 PM <WetBeard> Now you're falling.
8:51 PM <WetBeard> The whole hallway segment is falling.
8:51 PM <LadyKatie> … :| Cordelia does her floating thing.
8:52 PM <WetBeard> Given it is a falling hallway segment: Floating would case the roof to hit you and bring you down.
8:52 PM <LadyKatie> She can still cling to the roof though. It'll take less damage than the floor.
8:54 PM <WetBeard> The hallway segment crashes into a pool of water at the bottom, somehow, this doesn't kill you… In fact… You resurface in the Hotel Pool
8:55 PM <LadyKatie> … eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh. Delia always feels sick when swimming. She gets out as quick as she can, and dry heaves next to the pool.
8:55 PM <WetBeard> You're free now.
9:01 PM <LadyKatie> Cordelia feels really sick now.
