THE DUSTY STUDY  VIEWING THE ROOM 🔍●You scanned the room, but there was nothing that matched the riddle’s clues—no skeletons or anything white in sight. Perhaps the answer lies elsewhere...  VIEWING THE BOOKSHELF 🔍● As you cautiously examine the bookshelf, your gaze lingers on the aged tomes that fill the shelves, their spines weathered with time. A stale odor hangs in the air as you search for anything wedding-related among the neatly arranged volumes. At first, nothing catches your eye, but then you notice a row of four books near the center that looks strangely out of place. Their titles read: The Shadow's Embrace, Bloodstone Chronicles, Secrets of the Manor, and Children of the Woods.
 Viewing the PAINTING 🔍● A large painting of a foggy forest hangs before you. As you lean in for a closer look, searching for any hidden messages, something catches your eye—something strange, barely visible, peeking out from behind the frame.  Interacting with Desk 🤚● You approach the imposing oak desk, cluttered with scattered papers. Among them lies a quill pen, its tip still stained with sickly black ink, the remnants of a haunting message dried on a parchment paper below: Leave while you can. Crouching down, you search for drawers or hidden compartments but find nothing beneath. However, you notice a locked drawer with a heart symbol, its aged wood inviting curiosity. A keyhole glints in the light as you tug at the handle, but it’s locked tight, suggesting something important is inside. PHARAOH LEAP. [googlefont=Macondo] |

Mother freakin' Johnny over here giving him heart attacks, ugh! Shame though, how quickly his concern left him when he saw the kids hand still attached. Hn. Ah well. His eyes combed the room again, no Skeleton insight. Well, he had no idea what the answer to the riddle might be then! Honestly, this wasn't quite his strong point and he was also a bit too busy watching the walls now. Terrified they might move again and that alone made him shake in his knees. A hand ran down his masked face as he shoved his terrified feelings down. He had to keep that in check even if it felt like his heart might bust out of his chest. He had to keep his wits, because really, none of this was real! It was just a stupid haunted house that someone made and so there really wasn't any real danger within...right? "Who knows." He said to Farrah with a shrug of his shoulders. His hand finally left his friend and then went into the pockets of his apron for just a moment. Cyrus looked around the room and headed towards the bookcase to stare at the books but not touch them. At the same time, he took hold of Caleb and Farrah, both under one arm and directed them towards the bookcase as well. Because, Fuck Johnny. He wasn't going to take all of Caleb's time!
"Caleb, do you have any ideas? Cause, I'm fresh out..." |

Like the ocean's dancing with a storm, I will dance with you
From behind the mask tear-glossed eyes roamed across the bookshelf, skipping between levels with fearful jitteriness that half expected to find glowing eyes staring back at him. It was easy to push over a bookshelf, easy to hide behind one too. lurking until the target was close enough to grab. Farrah’s neck felt too bare, even when he brought up his hand to self-consciously rub at the naked skin, feeling the goosebumps that had spread across his body.
“Isn’t it.. blood? b-bruises maybe.. or it’s just..uhm.. a figure of speech.” He could barely recognize his own voice when he spoke, so fucking terrified a small spook would probably make his soul leave his body entirely. But he was trying, even if Farrah was certain nothing he said was any help at all. The entire time he could only think of bruises, and of blood.
Oh he really wanted his jacket, or anything that put more layers between himself and this creepy ass place. And as if he’d read his mind, Cyrus’ arm wound up across his shoulder, pulling him in until his cheek was pressed against the frills of the maid outfit his friend had chosen for his costume.
Cyrus brought them along, but at some point Farrah’s feet stopped moving. “W-wait-” He murmured out softly, putting his palm against Cyrus’ side as he might have done to make his horse stop dancing around. “I think I saw something.. don’t these books look weird?” The same hand moved again, magnetically drawn to the four titles that stood out in the crowd. His fingers brushed over the spine of Bloodstone Chronicles, drawn to the riddle’s mention of red, before moving over to the third book in the set.
“The Shadow's Embrace, Bloodstone Chronicles.. it matches the riddle, but these two.. Secrets of the Manor and Children of the Forest? Hmm, was there anything about a forest in the riddle?” This time his voice resounds just a little stronger, and he finds the fragile courage to try and pull the book "Secrets of the Manor" down from the bookshelf to inspect it closer.

Sure, they had known one another for some time now, but that didn't change the fact that somewhere along the way their dynamic started changing into something entirely different than what they'd grown used to. It didn't feel similar, in any way, as to how he felt with Cyrus or Farrah. These two were special, no doubt, and he'd very much bite a bullet for them if push came to shove. But Johnny? Johnny felt like an entirely different category that still felt rather alien to the junior. [break][break]
Granted, he felt something similar growing up, but nothing quite this strong in comparison. His chest, his cheeks, his ears all at once felt warm. Along with that cotton candy feeling built up in his chest. Sadly, it'd been short lived. Caleb couldn't really deny the fact that his nerves still remained on high alert, despite his collected demeanor. However, the moment he managed to come into contact with his best friend it felt as if he'd been completely grounded. Sure, Johnny definitely help his initial panic, but both Farrah and Cyrus finished the job. [break][break]
In the end, he needed all of them the same way they needed him. Well, two out of three anyway. He doubted Johnny needed him like a leech at his side. With the newfound feeling of being a burden to the older teen, Caleb decided to remain clung onto his friends instead. Eyes peered through the dimly lit room, with his mask doing very little to aid him until his eyes remained transfixed on.. something. The youth squinted curiously, no.. that's just a trick of the light, he assured himself before he directed his focus back towards Farrah and Cyrus. The moment he received Cyrus' query, Caleb opened his mouth to answer. [break][break]
However, Farrah drew Caleb's focus right out of that conversation. Due to recently past experiences caused Caleb to tense his shoulders the second his friend touched the tome. Eyes returned to scanning his surroundings to make sure nothing seemed.. out of the ordinary again. That's when Caleb turned his own concentration over towards the painting. Hesitantly, Caleb reached out and tried to examine the piece a bit closer and moved it slightly to one side. In doing so, he attempted to check if there had been anything stationed behind or around it that could possibly give his group a clue on what to do next.

The masked blonde waltzed up to the desk, purple eyes gazing through the tiny eye holes. There was ink scrawled across a piece of paper reading 'leave while you can'... Classic horror movie bullshit. The effects were impressive considering they were occurring live, but nothing terrifying. Everything was predicted horror tropes. Moving walls, signs to leave, mysterious whispering voices... What the f*ck was next? Blood oozing from the walls when the woman screeched about their loss? A sigh was breathed through damaged lips as Johnny began investigating the desk.
[break][break]
No secret compartments, but a locked drawer refused to budge under his... persuasion. An annoyed groan left the blonde as he rose from the ground. His shoulders rolled as Johnny got himself comfortable in a standing position. The purple eyes of the blonde glanced around for his group... to find them gathered by Cyrus. Behind the mask, Johnny's purple eyes narrowed at the action... A stir occurred in his mind, a tightness similar to anger, but different. He wanted to be over there, his hand still slid in Caleb's despite his aversions to 'gayness'. A scolding started in his mind.
[break][break]
A sharp reminder about how he could not participate in these romantic escapades with another man... Caleb's cuteness did not factor into this equation... but everything he wanted to keep was gone, was it not? The thought made his fist clench as he glanced away as he shunned those hopeful, percolating thoughts for the time. He should tell them about the locked drawer, right? An annoyed sigh escaped Johnny's lips as his purple eyes returned to the trio. He wanted to shut his mouth and not tell Cyrus shit... but... From behind them, he gazed at Caleb... He invited him, and even if he f*cked off afterward, he wanted Caleb to have fun.
[break][break]
"There's a locked desk drawer. If you find a key, unlock it I guess," Johnny grumbled.
[break][break]
The blonde's attention shifted elsewhere, feet automatically moving somewhere the group was not. The black candle took Johnny's eyes to the window, a brow lifting curiously. A gentle 'hmm' escaped the Legion-dressed group member's face as he crossed his arms and made his way over... The hole had a small chamber behind it for people to find the riddle... Was the window genuine? He leaned in, eyes narrowing behind the mask to gaze through the window. He checked for any locks or if there was an artificial space beyond the window. Escape rooms were never simple, thus, the window could be something other than... well, a f*cking window!

THE DUSTY STUDY INTERACTING WITH THE BOOKSHELF 🤚● When you try to pull the book, Secrets of the Manor, from the shelf, you realize it won't move. If you were to try any of the four books, you will find that none budge from the shelf. VIEWING THE BOOKSHELF 🔍● Peering over the old bookshelf, and in particular the shelf of books that will not budge, you cannot find anything that stands out. There seems to be no visible levers or buttons on the bookshelf itself. Interacting with the PAINTING 🤚● As you move the frame aside, you realize the object you had seen peeking out was in fact a small brass key. When you grab the key, you notice the fog in the painting begins to shift, revealing a man hanging from a tree with a noose around his neck.  INTERACTING WITH the WINDOW 🤚● As you inspect the window, you find no locks, hidden compartments, or anything unusual. The glass is smooth and cool, yet completely opaque, casting a pitch-black surface that blocks all light. There's simply nothing more to discover here at the moment. Temperature Drop: The air has grown cold, an icy chill seeping into the space. Room Size: The walls have shifted inward slightly, tightening the room and adding to the claustrophobic atmosphere. The Riddle (Haunted Item):  Brass Key: You've obtained a Brass Key! Wasn't there a locked drawer? Warning:Careful—one more strike, and it's game over. PHARAOH LEAP. [googlefont=Macondo] |

Cyrus stood there among his friends in silence. Unsure what to do to proceed in this god forsaken room. Even though he dragged Farrah and Caleb along with him to the bookshelf, he still felt thr tightening pressure in his chest. Thay tiny bit of fear and anexity floated around him like annoying flies. Pestering and fluttering past his ears as his gaze moved from the books and back to the enclosing walls. He really shouldn't be staring at them as it did nothing to aid his pounding heart. It was so loud that he had missed part of conversation. Snapping back into the world around him, he tuned back in and chose to look over at Johnny. Maybe if he focused on his hatred of the teen, he cluls focus better. That seemed like a good plan and it seemed to mildly help. Farrah was touching the books and nothing moved, Johnny was yanking on the desk drawer and Caleb found a key. Oh, now this was a nice turn of events. Maybe the key went to the desk or maybe elsewhere? It was hard to say where it went and if sticking it in the desk would be a good thing. Cyrus made a little sound as he thought about their options. His gaze moving from.Johnny, to the key and then back again. "Maybe that key goes to the desk? But we could also be wrong about it..." Cyrus remained by the bookcase and near his friends. Not wishing to part from either of them. |

Like the ocean's dancing with a storm, I will dance with you
It was as if the book had been glued in place, not giving an inch under Farrah’s admittedly very careful fingers. He hums to himself as his hands withdraw, coming to knit together over his sternum. “No luck, huh..” There is a level of disappointment in his voice, disheartened that the only thing he could think to do didn’t amount to anything to help them escape. A burden again. Why was he like this?
Farrah sighs, turning under Cyrus’ arm to look out through the room again. Was there something he’d missed? Likely, but he could not think of what. For a moment he watched as Caleb’s mystery invitee moved across the room, grumbling about a locked drawer before heading towards the incredibly unsettling black window. Oh if only they could climb out that way, but Farrah had a slight suspicion that breaking the glass would only get them into trouble, and might not lead out at all. Gods- he did not want to think about where else it could lead.
His lips pressed together in a thin line, trying to remind himself that this was all fake. A setup for fun, not actually a haunted house. They would not die, they would not unleash some horrible curse out of Cyrus’ horror movies that would come back to bite them in the ass later. Except nothing seemed to stop the continuous chills running through him. Seeking warmth, he huddles in closer to Cyrus until the amount of frills on the maid dress ends up providing him a little shelter from the cold.
A key and a locked drawer. In any other situation he’d call that a match made in heaven, but they’d already upset the haunted house by more innocuous actions, so now skepticism runs in his head. “W-what if its a red herring? AHh.. but I don’t have any better ideas.. open it, but hurry, pleaseeeee.” As he says that he turns his face into Cyrus’ side, until fabric and the mask effectively obscures his vision. If the room gets any smaller now, he does not want to see it happen.

Caleb almost dropped the key the second it slipped out of its hiding place. He wobbled slightly in place in his attempt to regain his balance, and successfully stood upright after a split second. "Whoops!" he exclaimed as he moved towards the desk which had been pointed out before. He took the actions of both his friends into consideration, but since nothing seemed to have happened, Caleb decided that it fell on him. [break][break]
Thus, he peered over towards the drawer and carefully examined it. He looked at the key, then the keyhole, back and forth a few more times, before he finally inserted the object into the small slot. With a slight jiggle, it felt as if it fit perfectly into place, only to later be twisted. Did it open?

The close inspection of the window brought up nothing impressive to be scrutinized by the purple eyes of the senior. A dark, dingey window with the only peculiarity being how opaque it was. Johnny's eyes rolled as he realized the window was meagre scene dressing. A creepy, completely black window with little interest. How impressive! An exasperated exhale escaped damaged lips as his back straightened. What now? When the word 'key' hit his ears, Johnny glanced back at the trio.
[break][break]
From the window sill, he watched as they headed over to the desk. Another sigh escaped Johnny's lips as he focused on something other than the drawer. Four people were not required to unlock and open a f*cking desk drawer! Purple eyes glanced around the room, checking for any other objects or areas of interest that could have been missed from the front door. To ensure he did something, he even analyzed the walls or symbols or anything. There had to be something additional for them to use or something. Other puzzles to be resolved and allow them access to the next room.
[break][break]
Alas, as Johnny's thoughts twisted together, they ultimately landed on the candle. A brow raised, he reached to pick up the holder and bring the flickering flame close. He heard of situations where keys or other non-flammable objects were hidden in candles... He doubted it would be the circumstance here, but he wanted to do something other than stare at a dingey desk drawer!

THE DUSTY STUDY Interacting with the DESK 🤚● As the brass key slides into the lock with a soft click, you feel a faint, unsettling pulse through your fingertips. Slowly, the drawer loosens, and then, with a sudden creak, pops open on its own. An old, brittle piece of parchment rests within, covered in spooky handwriting. As you study the words, you hear a quiet, mechanical thunk from the far side of the room. Looking up, you see that four books at the center of the bookshelf have popped out, their spines jutting slightly forward, as if waiting to be selected.
(Refer to The Riddle (Key Item) below) VIEWING THE BOOKSHELF 🔍● Four books at the center of the bookshelf have popped out, their spines jutting slightly forward, as if waiting to be selected. Their titles read: The Shadow's Embrace, Bloodstone Chronicles, Secrets of the Manor, and Children of the Woods. Perhaps the riddle will guide you in the right direction? VIEWING THE ROOM 🔍●When you scan over the room to ensure nothing was missed, you don't find anything else of interest. No special symbols or items missed.  Interacting with the Candle 🤚● You pick up the half-melted black candle from the windowsill and notice its flame burning a bright, eerie blue. As you stare intensely at the candle, you notice its flame appears unusually strong and bright, refusing to dim. Temperature Drop: The air has grown cold, an icy chill seeping into the space. Room Size: The walls have shifted inward slightly, tightening the room and adding to the claustrophobic atmosphere. The Riddle (Key Item): The parchment from the desk reveals a riddle, reading: The Riddle (Haunted Item): The parchment from the hole reads: Brass Key: The Brass key has been used. Warning:Careful—one more strike, and it's game over. PHARAOH LEAP. [googlefont=Macondo] |

An arm wrapped securely around the waist kept Farrah close to him. He offered soft words of encouragement as he saw his friend being shaken more then he had been. While he did this, he turned to watch Caleb, who found the key, heading back to the desk and to Johnny. Cyrus frowned heavily behind his mask as he was anything but thrilled with his bestie being so close to an asshole. Maybe it was a good thing his anger came back into play. It kept him from panicking, kept him from thinking about the room.having gotten smaller. But it did make him wonder why Caleb choose to be so fascinated with the blonde bully. Someone that Cyrus didn't like and had problems with on the daily. Hn, not like he had any say in what Caleb did but that didn't stop his protective nature from creeping around the corner. Just waiting for an excuse to rip the blondes face off at a moments notice. He absolutely refused to allow Caleb to get hurt by some jackass who, more then likely, thought this could be a fun little game to play. That would be some cruel shit for Johnny to do but Cyrus thought very poorly of the other. He saw no reason for him to be so close to Caleb or vice versa, unless there was some other hitch in the works he couldn't see. Why couldn't Caleb see that Johnny was a piece of human garbage? This one sided crush wasn't good for his friend. If things went terribly south.... During this time, his hold on Farrah became too tight but lucky it quickly loosened when the books flopped out. "Sweet Marry and Joseph!" He declared in shock, his mind forgetting all of what he had been thinking to now focus back on the puzzles at hand. "Why does everything have to fucking pop out like a goddamn Whack-A-Mole??" |

Like the ocean's dancing with a storm, I will dance with you
Farrah’s eyes remained tightly shut as the other teens hustled around, blindly letting Cyrus and Caleb lead him across the room. He’d meant what he said when he’d stated he didn’t want to watch as they unlocked the desk, but the terrible creak from the old lock and the wood made his spine crawl. “I-don’t-like-this-” the whisper came out so jumbled and incomprehensible it might as well have been a whine, followed by a softer, rapid chanting of “Just-a-game-just-a-game-just-a-game-”.
Just a game. Oh gods, this wasn’t good for his heart, and he hated that someone he didn’t know was around to see it. Sure, they were all masked and it was well possible the tall teen didn’t know who he was either, but that didn’t really matter.
A sound of something moving behind them chimed, followed by Cyrus’ colorful exclamations finally drew Farrah’s face away from the safety of his friend. “W-what happened? Did it open?” He peers up at Cyrus, then slowly lets his gaze crawl across the room. The desk with the open drawer, Caleb with a paper in hand. The tall teen by the blue-flamed candle, and finally the bookshelf with the immovable books. Hadn’t those been pressed further in on the bookshelf before? He squints at the four titled books, listening to the riddle as Caleb reads it out.
“U-uhmm.. Tales of those who lived.. A chronicle would document those things.” That was his helpful offer to the conversation, but Farrah had no desire to touch anything right now, so his hands remained tightly buried in the excess fabric of Cyrus’ costume. “The books wouldn’t move when I tried, though..”

The moment Caleb started to fiddle with the drawer it never occurred to him that such actions caused something else to take place. The mere sound of the firm thud caused the teen to jolt in place with the piece of paper in his careful possession. He read it aloud for his group before his eyes scanned the location where the previous sound originated from. A shaky breath followed as he oni dressed Caleb made his way on over to the various titles that were now loose. [break][break]
Curiosity started to etch its way into Caleb's veins as he carefully traced a fingertip across the titles while he too attempted to make sense of the riddle. The second his friends added their speculation to the whole thing, Caleb squinted at the books. "That makes sense. We're thinking chronicles, then.. what about you? What do you think, Johnny?" Caleb glanced over at the older teen. It's a team practice, after all, thus ever opinion counted in Caleb's book.

The candle was returned to its resting place on the windowsill with a shrug as his attention returned to the group. The pop of the books made Johnny stiffen in surprise. There was little reaction evident from the surprise he experienced... The blonde played plenty of horror games, making smaller "scares" hardly effective at this point... they were more akin to cheap jumpscares. Quietly, he wandered over to the desk, idling beside the group as Caleb read the riddle... His purple eyes watched the oni-dressed shortie, thankful for the mask for sparring him from his little crush.
[break][break]
The group's answers made sense... and when nobody shuffled over to the bookshelf, Johnny groaned with a little annoyance. Only Caleb asked about his opinion, but it hardly mattered. Their spooked cat maid already decided to make him the person who touched everything and was hardly required to spell it out. The blonde quietly pushed away from the desk, wandering to the bookshelf and glancing over the book titles Farrah mentioned to remind himself.
[break][break]
"Well, it's either that or Secrets of the Manor, so f*ck it. Let's try it. The secrets one is way too f*cking obvious," Johnny responded, glancing over his shoulder at Caleb.
[break][break]
With everybody huddled by the desk, the blonde took it upon himself. He reached up to try and pull the Bloodstone Chronicles book, trying to carefully pull it down or see how much it could move. Somebody needed to get the ball rolling... and regardless, it would more than likely be his responsibility...
