>Rodion: Check the desk for anything like an SBURB disk. Failing that, try to find something in that godawful mess you call your own room.
[1] Thankfully, you're pretty sure you remember where you put the discs before you fell asleep on the floor. They're in your desk drawer! Probably. You walk over to the desk and tug on the handle...
And that's really all you do. The drawer doesn't budge. You can hear the disks shifting around inside, but the drawer....JUST...WON'T...BUDGE!
Suddenly, you fall backwards onto the floor, handle still in hand...
...without drawer. Whoops.
>Alexander: Pick up TReVoR.
[3] Aww, who's a cute little test subject? YOU ARE!
You move to put Trevor down on your bed, but stumble, sending him down to the floor!
Oooh....
He looks fine, if a little pissed off at you for dropping him.
Ružica stands waiting at the mailbox, for reasons twofold: First of all, to make sure she gets it when it comes eeeee and also to prevent her jerk neighbor Ivo from stealing her stuff again.
[2] Damn Ivo...he always steals your shit, right from the box. Your magazines, your packages, your PERSONAL LETTERS. GOD DAMN HE WAS A
JERK. But he wouldn't get it this time! No, siree!
You waltz out past your front lawn, and walk up to the mailbox, planning on waiting there until the package comes, but...
There's a note.
From....
IIIIVOOOOOO.Dear Ružica
I've got your shitty game.
Love, Ivo.
That bastard.
Bruce uses his ninja powers to covertly scout out the mailbox, like a ninja.
[2] Humming the Mission Impossible theme, you manage to ninja your way to the roof of your house, and try to scout out the mailbox. Only...
Shit, where IS the mailbox?
You deduce that the only possible explanation is that the Mailbox developed ninja skills of its own! But how to find it now...
>Amelia: Wrap up your drawing, then head down to bug your father for the mail.
[5] Damn that's a sweet-ass picture. It belongs in a frickin MUSEUM, bro!
But enough of that. You head downstairs to find a remarkable lack of father. In fact, you find a remarkable lack of anything but the fridge. ALMOST AS IF THE KITCHEN DISAPPEARED COMPLETELY.
Eh, whatever. There's an envelope on the ground in the middle of the room with a tall Orange house symbol on it. You assume this must be the Gamma Edition of Sburb! Sweet. Now to Captchalogue it...
Pictionary Coin Flip: 1
Shit, where'd the fridge go?
...
Damn. Your drawing skills fail you once again.
>Alice: Look around room for any sign of the SBURB disc
[4] Luck seems to be in your favour today, as your sister left your mail all in one spot, on the corner of your desk. Strange that she didn't drag you out to get it yourself, though. Hm...
Eh, no matter. You get up and open the brown/orange envelope, revealing a pair of discs, emblazoned with a rather hypnotic orange spirograph and the title.
SBURB
Hm.
You might as well install them now, so you pop them into your compu-SHIT.
WHERE THE FUCK IS YOUR COMPUTER
AND WHY DIDN'T YOU REALIZE IT WAS GONE IN THE FIRST PLACE.
>Nathaniel: Confront cousin about disc
((I am SO sorry. Zoned out trying to get a write up for an introduction to something done. .n.))
[6] Thankfully, your cousin's room is right next to yours. You pop your head inside his room, and are about to say something, when you're knocked back by a flying package!
"STAY OUT."
Hm. Fine then. Your nose hurts, and you think it might be bleeding a bit, but at least you have...this. It has a picture of a tall, orange house on it. Maybe that means something to you, maybe it doesn't. Whatever.
>James: Search the kitchen for the disk. It has to be in the mail pile somewhere.
[3] Ugh. The mail pile. Your dad was never one to be organized at home. Which is strange for an office worker. Oh well. You don't exactly feel like searching through that monstrosity of a pile for a single envelope.
So as a compromise, you captchalogue the whole thing. Genius.
