[Open Dreamdive] Do You Want to Continue?

[amodelidol]

WHO: Makoto and You
WHERE: Makoto's subconscious
WHEN: August 18
WHAT: Dreamdives!
WARNINGS: There's going to be some guilt involved along with some other negative feelings associate with not feeling good enough. Anything else extreme I'll add it!



[You may be out on a run, finishing up some errands, or going home when you enter into a place that you're not familiar with. Everything looks normal on the outside. There's a nice looking, large house with a perfectly kept lawn, and flowers lining the walkway. Everything looks perfect with a hair out of place, however when you walk inside you see a flash of imperfection, but it disappears just as quickly. When you enter the foyer to the house you see a note on the table in front of you that reads:

It's a beautiful place isn't it?
However, it's not as beautiful as one may think.
If you want to find out the reason why locate the clues to solve the puzzles
Each puzzle will reveal a secret
Good luck on solving the puzzles
But remember the clock is ticking

Surely nothing bad will happen if you don't solve the puzzles, right?

[[ooc: Everything is set up pretty easy, but if you have a question let me know!]]

Room 1

[amodelidol]

[The first puzzle to enter the first one is a simple jigsaw puzzle of a doll. The clues aren't hidden in too many different places it can be found in the foyer of the house and the kitchen. After you find the clues you walk to the first door of the room when you open it, it looks like a small photo gallery. There are pictures of magazine covers of a beautiful model, mannequins with the stylish clothes on them, and the walls lined with professional shots. However, when you fully walk in the room the cover goes away to reveal quite the opposite.

The pictures on the walls are on the floor with broken frames, pictures ripped in half, and black x's on the faces. The mannequins once posed in a nice way are twisted with ripped clothes on them instead. The magazine cover of the beautiful model in now crooked with an x over the picture. On the floor there are a couple of doll cases turned over and open with a mannequin twisted inside.

However, every picture frame isn't broken! There is one intact with a picture of Makoto and his parents in it. Can you find it?]

Room 2

[amodelidol]

[The clue to the second puzzle is a song that plays on a loop. The tune will be playing around the house, though it will be stronger in the living room. When you find it, you will discover that it's a tablet with a rhythm game playing on it. Beat the game in time before the tablet runs out of power. If you manage to beat it in time then the door to the second room will open. If you don't you'll have to look for the charger which will cut into your time. It's a very easy song, good luck!]

[ooc: It can be any song you want from your favorite gacha!]

[When you enter this room there's a table in the middle of the room with a script on the surface. On the dresser there are awards for excellence in acting and similar accolades. There's a case with more awards on the inside. The cover on the script looks has a title on it when you pick it up the room changes again.

The case is now empty of the awards and the awards are on the floor. The script in your hand isn't the right one when you flip through it there's nothing on the inside. Can you find the script? The dresser and case will be open to look through.]

Room 3

[amodelidol]

[The clue to this room starts the same as the clue for the second room. You'll hear music it won't have the same tune as the rhythm game from before. The song will play once, until the record starts to skip. The song isn't very strong in the living room or the kitchen, it's pretty strong upstairs. Time to find the record and stop it from skipping!

When you enter this room it looks like a makeshift radio room. There is a microphone, a dj controller, a record player, and headphones. When you go to put the record on it shifts again. The headphones are broken and hanging by their wires. The controller is broken where the music won't play. The microphone on the floor and the record player silent. Can you find the right record? It's somewhere in the room good luck!]

Main Room

[amodelidol]

[Once you figure out and solve the clues for the three rooms the master bedroom will open up on the second floor. Inside will be Makoto! You're free to talk to him! Well, this Makoto won't talk about everything. Behind him there are three pictures frames with blurred pictures of his parents, a selfie of Makoto in his Trickstar outfit, and Izumi.

The other pictures includes the people he's talked to and enjoyed in recolle both old and new.

Now that you've solved all the clues, can you get him to open up?]

[adoringpast]

[ this is... eerie. too eerie. the fact that sena's all alone here makes the place even creepier, but it's as if there's any way to escape at the moment. the mannequins are making it hard for him to relax either.

but first, let's investigate. sena will check out these magazines first, picking one up and staring at the front cover. would he recognize the person on it? ]

[amodelidol]

[The magazine does have a model on the cover, though their face is blurred with their name scratched out on the bottom and replaced with 'doll' on the cover. Try another one!]

yuu-kun,

[adoringpast]

[ the rhythm game is easy enough to beat and the very least, making sena pull out his own phone after tinkering with the tablet and check out his own games, only to not have access on all of them. of course.

this guy must be that good in acting, he thinks. but when he picks up the script to check what's it about, the room shifts, and the papers he's holding have been emptied out. how annoying. sena looks up at the sound of doors being opened, and he'll decide to check the case since it's just lying there. what can he find? ]

[adoringpast]

[ "doll"... that word alone sends a shiver down his spine, dropping the magazine back on the pile and pushing himself back. this place can't be his, can it? he's gotten the message though, so he'll check out the ripped up photos on the wall next. what can those pictures tell him despite their state? ]

[adoringpast]

[ the song is getting louder and louder, and it doesn't help that it's the famous log-in music in enstars that's grating on sena's ears the more he listens to it. good thing the radio room is in sight, even if it's in a state of disarray. sena tries flicking on even switch, putting on headphones for good measure, but no such luck.

ugh, stupid melody. time to switch it out for a new one. can he look in the drawers? ]

[amodelidol]

[The ripped photos on the wall has blurred pictures of the models on it with the covers of the magazine scratched out. There is one picture on the wall with everything scratched out except the word "case" on it.]

[adoringpast]

[ case? let's check that out then! can he take the picture out of the wall? ]

[amodelidol]

[Inside the case he'll find a few awards that were in the case in the drawer. There are a couple of magazines with the actor's face on it. He can flip through them if he wants it's not empty like the script.

[amodelidol]

[The drawers are open for him to look through! He will have to shift through a bunch of records and cds to find the right one. The right record will have a blue star on the back of it.

[adoringpast]

[ okay, taking them out now... there sure are a lot of CDs here though. what happens if he pops one of these records into the player like so? ]

[adoringpast]

[ oooh okay here they are. and more magazines? can he recognize who this is now when he looks through the pages? ]

[amodelidol]

[He can! The only picture that will move is the one with case on it. He can carry that with him as he checks out the cases.]

[adoringpast]

[ okay, picture get. "doll", "case"... there are a couple of doll cases on the ground, so he's going to check them out next.

there's another mannequin inside, so he can just take it out, right? ]

[amodelidol]

[He can take it out, though he should be careful not to move the mannequin too much or he won't be able to take it out the case.]

[amodelidol]

[When he flips through the magazine the rest of the pages will have articles of an actor that looks like Makoto, except it's his father. There will be a page with a younger Makoto and the article "Like father, like son! Upcoming star follows in his father footsteps!" When he flips through the pages the articles will have similar titles of Makoto becoming an actor like his father. However, in each of the articles Makoto's father is holding the same award in them. It's a gold statue with the words: 'Greatest Actor' on it. It's in the drawer among all the other awards in there.]

[amodelidol]

[If he plays one of the cds it will start playing out at first, until it switches to the next song halfway through.]

[adoringpast]

[ he'll be gentle, don't worry. it's a little hard trying to pull the mannequin out in one piece though - can he disassemble it and take it out limb by limb? ]

[adoringpast]

[ sena has seen this actor before in magazines and some movies (though he's not familiar with him compared to his model wife), while he does know that that's makoto's father he didn't think that there would be so much pressure being put on makoto already.

he puts down the magazine and stands up. no time to feel guilty. ]

Yuuki...

[ he'll save him no matter what. maybe checking out the drawer would help him get closer to his goal. ]

[adoringpast]

[ oh, that's boring. time to bring out the right record then and let that spin right round. how about now? ]

[amodelidol]

[Sure, he can do that, but he does have to put the mannequin back together. Any loose parts will result in the door of the case closing until the mannequin is put back together. He can put it in any pose.]

[amodelidol]

[The drawer is a good idea! There a bunch of awards on the dresser that look the same as the one in the book. Make sure to look for 'Greatest Actor' on the front.]
