It's better now that it's all empty though

if you think that female muses shouldn’t have to be toned down for the comfort of other people? 

Female muses don’t have to be easy. They don’t have to be cute, they don’t have to hold back their drama. They aren’t interesting despite their chaotic personality, but because of it.

He muttered something to himself, a pity, they don’t seem to realize they’re not where their mother is anymore. But who is he to break that to them? Either way he sighed. “Th.. The conference room, yes.” He thought for a moment, putting his hand to the left side of his face, the one which his hair covered, as he thought.

Framtid did his best to place himself in the office in a mental map of the place, he believes it should be fairly similar to what he’s used to. Eventually he snaps back to reality “Just, follow me, keep close.”  He says to the girls as he looks around, before walking toward a hallway.

He made sure to stay on a path that made sense, until eventually coming to a sight much more familiar and preferable to him, a pair of two doors. “Now, it’s just on the door left to here.” And as he walked to the door on the left, he felt such a need to go through the right door, just something the room seems to do to people that have self control.

He resisted it of course and walked through the left door he once told his protagonist to go through. “Just here, I don’t think your mother is here though” Framtid says as he immediately goes to the white board to check if it’s been changed from what he’s used to seeing.

The girls followed the strange man. They kinda wanted to ask if he’s an alien or a genie of some sorts or something else. One thing the twins were sure of - the stranger is supernatural. The hair seemed like the most weird and interesting thing in his appearance. Yet the sisters were too shy to ask. At least, at the time.

At the set of two open doors both girls, though still following their guide, stared at the right door for a couple of seconds. It was opened wide, very unusual for an office, and the door ignited their curiosity. They felt like it was luring them, but they stayed on the path. This place was getting stranger with every discovery, the twins thought.

Finally, the conference room was reached and it was… rather small. But also empty!

“What? No one’s here…”, one of the girls murmured with disappointment.

“Maybe, the conference was over before we came?”, suggested the other sister.

They turned to their guide and one of them coughed for attention.

“Mister, do you by any chance know why this meeting was called?”

“And where everyone went? It doesn’t usually take our mom that long to finish with her work and… we’re worried”. The sisters spoke quietly, with a stammer once in a while, and one of them was playing with her ponytale in her hand. The kids tried to not show it, but they were clearly anxious.

His attention was returned to the twins when one coughed, turning with a quiet hum as he listened to them. He sighs, should he tell them? how will they react? will they panic? worry? worse? As he begins to overthink this his hair returns to its magical look, and then he snaps back to reality, yet it stays the same.

“The meeting ah.. I don’t know, I was already gone by the time this meeting here was set to happen, in my scripts the information wasn’t given but I believe it was to obtain more engagement from the audiences and be a better worker” He walks over to the projector, pressing some buttons to confirm that it was about that, and yeah it was.

Framtid glanced at the kids and then away, lowering his head and letting some air out through his nose. “I need you to believe me on this, but please do not panic I don’t think I can handle it. I am most completely sure you are stuck in The Parables, stories told by a narrator like I was once. Originally we- we told the story of 427, Stanley.” In his vision flashes a sight of his Stanley, now a narrator, it calms him a bit.

“But- But- in order to- to tell the story of Stanley and, and only Stanley, we we- we deleted the other employees and judging by you being still.. children, you couldn’t have been considered as employees by the narrator and- oh dear oh lord.” He puts his hands to his face, the way his body reacts to his panic is interesting, his hair returning to a full state of its starry look.

“This... this can’t be true”.

“Is this a game show? A quest?”

Of course they didn’t want to believe their mother is... deleted! This all seemed like a set-up for a quest where the girls had to find the exit - that would explain a lot! And that would mean that their mother is out there - alive and well!

A man repeats to himself as he walks around the halls of what is no longer his own office space. Faustino wandered the halls in which these twins were present, quietly complaining to himself as his nervous gaze directed itself to the floor. Wouldn't it be a shame if someone were to interrupt his complaining?

[ FAUSTINO "FRAMTID" ALBERICH / @aftcrpast ]

"Did you hear that?"

"I did and I am still"

Oh no, there was someone else here. This is not good. Someone was walking through the halls nearby and it was only a matter of seconds until they reach the girls. They don't have time to hide, so they exchange looks and whisper.

"Battle stance?"

"Battle stance"

One of the girls grabs a pen from one of the tables, the other grabs a stapler. That should do. The sisters' parents weren't raising quitters. The twins stood side to side, not particularly threatening (you could barely call it a "battle stance"), but they kept their makeshift weapons ready.

"Plea- please don't, hurt me" His accent loose in his voice as he backed up, still on the floor. There was an odd look to his hair, it was slightly flowing, and other than the light colored streak, it seemed to have no shadow or light, just a void, and were those stars? Nonetheless it was odd.

It took him a moment to realize he was faced with two kids, twins nonetheless, which seemed to calm him. He moved quietly to be sitting instead of just pitifully laying on his elbows. "Uh- Kids? What are you two doing in the offices? The parables nonetheles.." He'd look away at the last part, muttering it mostly to himself.

There was a number on the back of his vest were any of the twins to go behind him for one reason or another, 221 was the number on it, embroidered with golden thread. Quietly, he stumbled up, looking down at the girls. "You should, probably try to find a way out of this place.. It would be a shame to waste your years in these empty halls.. Would be so much greater than ending up like me"

Both girls looked confused. They already threw away their “weapons” as there was no danger, just an adult person that, to them, honestly, sounded pathetic. The twins were confused by the guy’s sorta magical look, but mostly by his words, so that’s what they wanted to ask about first.

“I mean, yeah, we wanna go home, but we’re not going anywhere without our mom”, said the other twin.

It wasn’t just because they wanted their mother to come home with them, she was literally supposed to drive them home as the girls didn’t bring any money to school, so no bus for them.

And what do you mean by “wasting our years” here? It hasn’t been... that long since we’ve arrived. I think?

The girl looked at her sister. She shrugged. 

“Anyway, mister(?), you seem to know this office, can you lead us to...”

“The conference room? The one where the... conference takes place right now?”

so i've just come to notice on my angeal blog via google chrome that there has been a new update to xkit rewritten's trim editor.

Omni nodded “sure I’ll come with you, since there doesn’t seem to be anyone here let’s head upstairs and see if we can find anybody” she suggested with a smile leading the girls towards a staircase.

“Oh- thats not as long as I was expecting although I guess if everyone really did disappear then that wouldn’t take long Alice added with a shrug.

“I mostly know this place but I haven’t actually physically been is this area before but I think I know which way to go- this is going to sound weird but I only saw this area in a trailer” she explained awkwardly.

The sisters followed Omni to a staircase. They’ve seen it before, but never dared to go upstairs and definitely not downstairs. That was staff only! And there’s a warning sign on this metal (therefore creepy-looking) door.

“In a trailer? How could you see a room in a trailer?” “She probably means a video” “Oh, pffffft! I’m so dumb, ha-ha!” Both laughed loudly.

“We’re going up, right?” “I mean, it’s not like our mom would’ve gone downstairs to the basement or whatever”

“Yeah- like an advertisement video” added Alice as she lead the way upstairs.

“Yeah, and I think most of the offices are in higher floors where this narrator guy should be, I believe we’re looking for floor number 4” she explained as she continued walking.

They looked around the office and were kind of overwhelmed by how boring everything looked. And yet, everything they saw was new to them.

“Well- in a way, I haven’t been here physically but I’ve seen this place before” she explained as she entered the office after the twins.

Alice lead the way through the corridors up to a door labelled 427.

As the children wanted to ask Omni to tell more about Stanley and this so-called “Narrator”, they both started to feel hungry. Like they’ve been hungry for a long while and only now it struck them. Why didn’t the girls notice this before, in the lobby?

“H-hey, miss Omni…? Is there a sort of cafeteria nearby?”, Alisa asked, as her stomach growled and her face suddenly turned really pale.

“Y-yeah, same question, hehe… Oh no, Alisa, I think I’m…”

“Oh- that’s… weird, how did the door open if no one was there, almost like, we went through a game trigger…” she muttered out loud.

But before she could give it much through she was proposed with a question.

“Cafeteria? Unfortunately no… but I think I know where to find a vending machine-“ Alice began stopping mid sentence from the shock of seeing the two girls faint.

“Eh- what do I do what do I do…” she muttered to herself in panic

She looked around before darting in the direction of the two doors room making her way through the right door heading right for the vending machine, the only things he could think of that might help was getting the two girls something from the vending machine.

(A shadow silhouette of a man with short hair and glasses appears on the wall. His brows are narrowed, and his low voice with a british accent shows irritation)

[footsteps stop] Ugh, goodness gracious, do I have to deal with everything? [paper rustling]

Okay, listen now, I'm only saying this once: the secret code to the vending machine is "4990". That's it, I left Stanley alone all the way out there just for you people, I hope you're happy. Good day.
