The Consequences [Concluded]

Everybody is acting too conventional. It's hardly testing GH's imagination.

oooooh I know. This is all a dream! Or a simulation of some sort. Therefore, if we do something that is completely unthinkable for the brain, than we shall be able to snap out of it!

Strangle myself.

Anyways. Do we even know where this bus takes us?

Says Mr. Sit in the corner interacting with no one on a bus to nowhere.

Double decker buses are not conventional in Arizona

He didn't say it was double decker, I think we should inspect who is on the bus before we go on it...

Because sitting on an isolated part of the bus and dropping the only company you have is being really imaginative.

P.S: Beskar touched on this, I just added

"Why yes, as a matter of fact I do like camels," the woman said. "My family went on a trip to Egypt when I was a little girl and I've been fascinated with them ever since. I remember going back a few years ago and oddly enough, there was this Dutch man who had an even greater interest in them than me... almost romantically, in fact. It was very disturbing."

You pay her fare as well as yours and the two of you make your way to the seats.

******Status update******

Stage completed: My First Town

Inventory:
- Wallet with $89
- Backpack
- mp3 player with "Rosetta Stoned" loaded on it
- Slip of paper with "Croatoan" written on it

Feedback:
You've made some progress. You now know what you look like, and where you are (Surprise, Arizona). You've even made a friend very late in the stage, after a bit of a rough start. You successfully avoided major trouble in the bar, although you came close twice. First was ordering your drink; the barflies would not have taken kindly to an outsider coming in, trying to use the bathroom, and then ordering the cheapest and lightest beer available, Miller 64. Second was your behavior with the bartender - you forgot to tip him. Had you gone back into the bar and asked for directions after you left, you would have been accosted and beaten.

You're now on your way to... well, you're still not sure exactly where you're on your way to, but at least you're going somewhere. The bus is air-conditioned, so you're just about recovered from your two-hour walk in the heat from earlier. However, your finances could be doing better.

Peer out the window and make faces at the drivers in their cars

I think it would have got worse if Split got our character naked and the barkeep walked in wondering what was taking so long.

Look man, stop ragging on me, I'm thinking outside of the box here. If we had some sort of tracking chip embedded in our thigh/nether regions, and we find this out when we die because it's a bomb on our junk, you'll say "Oh why didn't we listen to split" :l

Upon further review I think we should check if there is a snuke in our snitch.

I know, I apologise. I mean my comments in a good-natured humorous way. Have to be honest though, if the bar-keep walked in on us like that...

The bus goes by one stop. You amuse yourself by making faces at the cars passing by. In one of the cars is a little girl who makes a face back at you. You are proud of yourself.
