In a house of leaves situation (I know you haven’t read it but just imagine) who in your main animal crossing AU would go into the infinite hallway first
ohhh...you have come to me with the horrors I see...very well...yes, indeed, very very weeeell.
Sorry, I wanted to make something different this time. I'm always saying, "Thank you for the ask!" Although I AM thankful bc I get to yap!! So thank you for this ask! Anyways, to the question.
Hmmm...well, i have two options that are part of the "main cast", and one who i don't talk much about, but I feel could be interesting.
As much as I love putting Wilbur through The Horros, they're mostly, like, "human bound"? Like, they aren't too...supernatural. But Orville...*rubs hands*.
I put Orville in the werewolf scenario, and despite being mostly comedic/romantic, I think it would be fun to put him in more "scary" supernatural scenarios. He is perceptive and smart, but the allure of that hallway may draw him in.
Tho...wouldn't it be fun if the hallway appeared in the airport? I being to airports in the capital city, and. what the hell. they're huge. and they have a lot of places to go. Genuinely, I get lost sometimes when I'm there. Of course, the island's airport is very small, so the horror would be closer to the one of the book: a place you know well suddenly has rooms and what now pop up into existence and now you "have to" investigate them (no you don't. Don't do it!!!) to find the truth behind this big mystery... expect you were never meant to find it. Curiosity strikes the cat once again!!!
Now, if it wasn't Orville, then it would be Sirica. They have some "thematic" connections with houses. When I write them, I kinda have to remind myself that their story is very horror-like. I mean, they were hiding from the rest of the world in a house for who-knows-how-long (i know. but whateveees). So, in this scenario (which happens in their house in the island), is like. "My new house, my home, has suddenly changed into something that I don't know and im scared because, as much as I wanted changed, this feels like going back to my old cage". Something among those lines idk.
The best way I can put it is this:
Orville -> " have to find the truth behind this because I feel this is a way of proving myself. Also mysteries are fun!!"
Sirica -> "I'M BACK IN THE FUCKING BUILDING AGAIN!!! OH MY GOOOOD"
Huh. Now the third option.
This wouldn't be a post of mine without a bit of unseriousness. I'm light of heart.
The third option, and you'll have to bear with me, is basically the HHP crew (Lottie, Niko and Wardell) in a scooby doo-esque faced off against the house of leaves, starting by the infinite hallway.
Okay, so, since the whole gimmick of HHP is decorating houses, what if...a new house pops up without reason, they enter it together, and find out that it's bigger than it seems, and it connects to other houses that equally pop up without reason. Like, they're investigating and open and closet, then boom, they're in one of the island surrounding the resort.
Also I say scooby doo-esque because I made that joke before and I'm going to use it again. I want them running through doors and putting up traps against a "monster" that was never there. And when they finally figured it out. SHOW OFF WITH THE HOUSE!!! MONSTER HOUSE STYLE.
WILBUR COMES IN WITH A MACHINE GUN IN HIS SEAPLANE. EXPLOSIONS AND ACTION AND DEATH!!!! YEEEES!!!!
Okay I might have lost the plot. forgot that last part.
But yeah. I need to read House of leaves. But first, I have to finish this one book that I hate. but I'm too prideful to just drop it. A book won't defeat.
Thank you once again for your ask! Hope you enjoyed the yap (and the sudden descent into madness). I'm always happy to make things up in my mind lalalala
