This will be a game that you might have seen before in other forums, or in those old text adventures (or interactive fiction, if you prefer), or a Choose Your Own Adventure book. It is a collaborative effort! I will post a description of a scene and you can figure out what to do.

For example...
The description:
"This is the happiest candy shop you have ever been in! The pink-haired clerk smiles at you even as you knock over a display. 'Tut-tut', she says, 'It will be a lot of bunny munny to pay for that!' and holds out her hand."

Your turn:
This is where you suggest things like "I pay her back for all the spilled candy." and "I turn around and run out of the store!"

The rules are simple after that.
1. Keep things within the Gaia ToS (which means PG-13)

2. Do not re-post suggestions already stated or things like "I agree".

3. Please keep discussion unrelated to the story to a minimum, and not too many comments like "Oh no!" or "I wonder what will happen?!" That way the thread is cleaner.

I will accept the reply to the description that is either a) the only suggestion, or b) reasonable and having the majority vote. If a tie comes up, I'll make a judgement call, like the least violent option will win. In your voting for the suggestions, please make some indication that you have a reason for it. e.g. "I run out the door because I don't have any bunny munny!"

Every so often I will use one of the reserved posts to keep a summary of what has happened so far, so that no one has to read 50 pages to remember what went on.

Okay, I hope that was all clear enough! Feel free to PM me any questions or comments. Here we go!

The room is comfortably warm and you are laying on something soft and plush. As you wake, you find the room itself is dim, with only some light seeping through a rectangular outline of a door to your left. The room is silent, and smells faintly of lavender. You cannot remember where you are or how you got here. Your head is killing you, but you do not seem to be injured.

I start looking for my wallet and cellphone, while scanning the room for any possible weapon (Even spoons and such)

As you look around and your eyes adjust, you find that you are in a fairly large bedroom. You are laying in a queen-sized bed, beneath sinfully soft blankets. You can make out the shapes of furniture in the room. The bed is set to have about three feet (~1 meter, are we all American here?) of clearance on the right side, with the headboard against the wall. There is a nightstand with a lamp between you and the wall. Centered on the opposite wall is a dresser. At the corner where the headboard-wall and door-wall meet seems to be a desk and chair. There are no windows.

Your pockets are intact and everything you normally have with you is on your person, or in your jacket dropped haphazardly on the floor beside your bed. These include your keys, wallet, cellphone, a piece of candy, chapstick, sunglasses or glasses (your choice), and a scrunchy (hair tie).

Other than perhaps the lamp, there are no visible weapons.

I jump out of bed, almost tackling my jacket, checking my wallet to see if everything is still in it, then quickly get up and start dialing the first number on my calling list, to see if I'm getting any service. I put the keys between my fingers in a fist as a weapon.

Your jacket suffers this abuse quietly. Your wallet, fortunately, seems to have a couple bills and change, but any plastic cards you might carry, like I.D. and credit cards, are missing.

Your phone lights up your face in the dark room. The screen shows two missed calls, and--no!--only a sliver of battery left. The call starts to go through, but drops as the connection dies. The signal flickers from nothing to one bar of service, almost as a taunt. It can't seem to decide if it does or does not have one bar.
