Where is everyone? (ISG)
« on: October 14, 2015, 07:41:24 am »

Where is everyone?



"Finally out of that forest. I've had enough of all those trees...", you mumble to yourself as you drive along the empty road.
You are on your way to a good friend of yours who's living on the other side of the country, a seven hour drive through mostly forest-covered nothing.
After four hours of driving, you slowly grow bored.
Just as you began to think about what you could do to change that, a sign comes into view saying "Al's roadhouse".





What do you do?

it looks old and outdated.
Check how much gas is left. if we are running low, lets stop there.

I figure at some point, you're just gonna run outta fucks to give and just off yourself whenever you get hurt at all. It's not like there's any downsides to it. Hangover? Suicide will fix that. Stubbed your toe? Suicide. Headache? Suicide. Papercut? Suicide.

You check your gas display and let out a relieved sigh.

You stopped at a gas station not long ago and it should be enough to reach your friend.

Lets stop here. Take your pistol out from under the seat

You decide to stop at the roadhouse. It looks simple and cheap, but maybe the interior looks better.



While thinking about pistols and how glad you are that they aren't as available here as in other countries, you check under your seat and pull out your knife - you never know who you might meet out here.



You are sitting in your car, parked in front of Al's roadhouse.
On the other side of the street there is a big gas station with a small supermarket integrated. What do you do now?

Enter the Roadhouse.

120 ;) more or less random, what's important is the gas. Also, I'm from Germany, so I'm used to kilometers, not miles.
(Wherever this game takes place might seem like the states, but it's not, it's just some fantasy country in a fantasy world that weirdly resembles ours a lot)

Where is everyone?
Spoiler: Character info (click to show/hide)

You enter the roadhouse and take a look around.

It looks pretty inviting, with fresh colors and a cute waitress. There are two other guests, and you can hear someone talking to the waitress from what's probably the kitchen in the back.

The waitress

A guest

Another guest

You barely hear the sounds from outside in here. It IS in the middle of nowhere, but it's an intersection connecting 2 greater cities with the other side of the country and thus there are cars passing every couple minutes.
The jukebox is playing some old dancehall stuff, not your favorite, but it could be worse.
Your knife is securely hidden inside your pocket, and, looking at the people here, you don't think you will need to use it.
The cook in the back sounds like an old man, and he talks like a father to the young waitress. She's leaning on the counter, looking around bored and occasionally responding to the cook.
The two other guests are sitting at seperate tables (there are only two tables).
To the west, outside of the window, you can see two large barns surrounded by fields of golden wheat.
To the east you can see the forest you fortunately left behind.
To the south is the big gas station, and you can't see the north from here since there is no window.

What do you do?

(I also edited some images, mainly in the last update)

Procced to become the cooler of the establishment and roundhouse kick any unruly thugs that enter said establishment.
