Betrayal at House on the Hill

[ You sleep, the ground cold beneath your cheek. The ground is hard as stone, cold marble beneath a fine layer of dust that doesn't come anywhere near acting as a cushion. The dust stirs with your breathing.

[ Clowns, really. Miles raises an eyebrow. ]

I hope not. It's rather elaborate if so.

[court_chesster]

It could be. Like one of those prank shows on Take-2 TV? I'm sure there are hidden cameras all over.

[Does not sound even the slightest bit sure of that.]

[dendarii]

.... Er. What is that? I'm still not familiar with some forms of Terran television.

[court_chesster]

It's like, do something weird or scary and record people's reactions? Usually not as illegal as kidnapping people.

[dendarii]

Ah. Usually. But I don't see any cameras here.

[court_chesster]

Of course not. They'd have to be hidden.

[dendarii]

Even so, this place is decrepit. Where would they even be?

[court_chesster]

In the walls? Or the ceiling? Underneath dusty furniture? You don't have to crush my hopes and dreams right off the bat...

[dendarii]

Sorry about that. I'm terribly good at crushing dreams, alas.

[court_chesster]

Right... well...

That was my only idea, so...
