Of course, Twin is neither man nor woman but an unholy eldritch abomination like every other Bay12er. The difference is they hide it better.

Rachel quietly nods, slowly and somewhat unsteadily getting to her feet.

"I'm just relieved it's gone."
To the Monolith Hotel!
Well, as much as I'd like to roll again and see whether or not someone start firing trails at you three through a railgun, it's a bit too early in the game to start rolling consecutively. So, the three of you end up with the other two standing in front of the hotel.

Key, hashtag symbol.
As you present the trinket to the symbol, it twists and shifts, turning into a self-luminous key that turns clockwise and dissipates. The building shudders and splits down the middle, swinging inwards like a set of doors. Gravity shifts ninety degrees and you find yourself falling in, towards the what appears to be an illustration of the Qliphoth with anime eyes, spray-painted on the cosmological horizon. You fall forwards, the image shrinking as you draw closer until it vanishes and you collide with it at terminal velocity.

From the viewpoint of everyone else, you never took out your trinket, you just walked straight into the building, through a solid wall.

You find yourself standing in what could reasonably pass off as a swanky hotel suite were it not for the sixteen beds and one of the walls being transparent, revealing an enormous clock face one with hands that seem to randomly jump backwards and forwards with each tick, seemingly at random though still slowly moving themselves clockwise overall. Nonetheless it has all the amenities you would expect from a hotel suite. The windows show a view of a forest clearing, one that appears to be remarkably clean and lacking in insects. The balconey door opens out into the clearing, with suite and the slice of the surrounding forest kept within a shimmering dome, like a scene trapped in a snowglobe, albeit with far less snow.

There are numerous notes placed neatly on one of the benches. One of them with typed text in enormous red letters simply reads LEAVE BEFORE THE CLOCK STRIKES TWELVE. All the other ones are handwritten words of encouragement, each by a different person, some signed by multiple people.

((Once a character is inside, they can rest. Resting restores all stability points and lets them reset their Hangover to a value between zero and their current value.))

((Might be a few days before I update this. Uni's starting again and I've got other matters happening in my life, so it'll take a bit of time for me to figure out how to assert some of the plots without railroading or relying on people to go retrace their steps.))

Walk back out, bring the others in.

Hmm.  Can the clock be stopped?

She seems to hear him this time. "...No, not really. I thought I was going to die. I couldn't move. Couldn't feel anything. Couldn't hear anything meaningful. I think they were going to kill me. I'd probably be bawling my eyes out in fear and relief that I survived if I wasn't probably in shock."

Rachel would return the hug. Because she really needs it. Obviously.

Bringing Stacy with her, Rachel follows AJ inside. She then goes to the nearest bed, sits down, and sits there for a moment. For about a minute, she remains silent. And then starts sobbing uncontrollably.

Go inside, rest. Probably once she feels up to it, (I.E. all stability points restored), Rachel will probably ask the others if they can leave.

Well, it's behind the invisible wall, so you'd need a way to break that.

Stability points restored. Hangover will remain at three unless you want to lower it too.
