Which is exactly where you are!

You are Molly Misk, a country mouse who has spent all of her life in the comforting wheat fields of Plainston. Presently you are on your way to the great city of Pawpulpus to visit your young city slicker cousin, Candy. It's the first holiday you've ever taken for yourself.

You're just so excited you don't know what to do!
Or do you?

The obvious option is to give into your nervous tick and chew that oversized novelty button.

>>722751
What are you good at?

tell us about your cousin

bounce in your chair, bounce in your chair!

>>722752
I'm pretty sure Molly knows where you're going with that.

You turn restless and begin to chew on your button. The soft plastic clacking under your bite calms you a little as you bounce in your seat!

As far as you can remember about Candy, she's very sociable. And rumors through the family says she a bit of the wild type of mouse. Which is probably why she left Plainston to live in Pawpulpus. You managed to keep in touch via post cards and holiday greetings to the point where she invited you to see Pawpulpus as her personal guest. Maybe in some hope to convert you from your simple life.

Well nothing you would really considered a talent, but You're flexible. You can put your legs behind your head and squeeze through anything you can stick your head into.

Ohh she looks fancy. So any idea what she does for a living in Pawpulpus?

I guess you'd need to be careful of what size the hole for putting you in stocks then, huh.

In your sack you have everything you need for your holiday.
-7 Credits. A credit is currency and they are digitally transferred over wireless cards. You thought it might be good to have a little spending money.
-A toothbrush because hygiene is important.
-And an old out of date cell phone. It's not stylish. But it works just fine for what you need it for.

You don't actually recall Candy bringing up her line of work. Not that it was any business of yours.

Brushing your teeth is very important, good work mouse, although you don't seem to have any toothpaste which is slightly less good work.

Do you have any numbers in your phone, or ones remembered for you to contact?

Well it isn't your business, but I thought that if you two were close enough she was going to invite you into her home it would be something that would have come up. You know like she might have told you about an obnoxious workplace incident.

So your bag is only half full. Could you fit yourself entirely in the other half?

Look out the window!

It seems to be your bag is two small to fit your body in. But you can fit three paws in just fine. Not that this is helpful, as you try not to step on your Credit Card or toothbrush.

Checking your phone, you have three contacts. Your parents, who know you are on vacation. And Candy who gave you her number just before you left Plainston.

Out the window you see the wall of a tunnel. You are in a tunnel.

Darn the tunnel's probably killing your reception right now. Anyway let's explore the rest of the train. Maybe meet a few new people.

You are apparently in car C, cabin 2.

And in other news...there's a snake over there.

The snake doesn't look at you. But they respond all the same.
"I..I'm fine...I'm just a little motion sick...I was...on my way to go get some medicine...but...urp...I didn't make it...very far."

This poor snake is constantly stuck in a state of de-feet.

Offer to provide some comfort. Give them some backrubs and affection to make them feel better.

>>722799
Option 1. Get her some medicine!
Option 2. Roll her into a loop and roll her to the store!

Both have advantages and disadvantages.

The snake gives you thanks and says you're a saint.

Oh no I think she's about to puke into your bag!

Let's keep the snake company.

We should go with her to find some sick bags or something if they are in need of one.

Tell them they're pretty and thank them for the compliment.

You could try the old hang-upside-down trick... but you don't know how to tie a gallows knot.

Motion sickness, get some tap water, multiple vomiting to purge any agitating food poisons. Should help increase resistance.

Quickly you turn the Snake's head just as it blows chunks.
You feel it isn't proper to watch so you turn your head and close your eyes!

You saved your bag...but in the process made work for some poor janitor.

Probably the best thing you can do now is to get the snake to a bathroom and say that you'll get the medicine for them.

Also, ask for a name.

>>722835
It's fine, you just validated the janitor's job is all. Maybe see about getting that medicine.

if you are a strong enough bean, carry snake to get medicine.

The janitor would have had something to clean up anyway, puke is messy, would have just made a bag shaped angel in the mess if it did get on the mess.

Ask snek if he feels better now.

ask snake where you could find the medicine for the poor soul? Maybe take them their yourself or at the very least get it yourself.

>>722839
Let's not try to use Broken Window Fallacy to make her feel better.

>>722835
Don't worry about it too much. That snake was going to blow chunks on the floor whether it hit your bag or not. Ask them if they got everything out. Lead them to a toilet if they didn't help them to wherever we can get appropriate medicine if they did.

pat snake on head.

You might also consider a mild apology for making them barf on the floor instead of a convenient bag. (Maybe a simple vague "sorry" would suffice, followed immediately by saying one of the other things suggested.)

Take that snake to a doctor, or vet.

You pet the snake and apologize for them not feeling well and offer your assistance. Because unfortunately while you did grow up in the country, you are not a buff mouse to carry the snake.

The snake explains how you can help. At the front of the train, there's a shop. In the shop the snake explains there are bottles of pills. They need one in order to feel better.

You grab your bag and tell the snake you will be right back as you make your way to the front of the train.

Gift shop!

Wait, 59 or 5 9s or 5 or 9? Those are 4 different numbers I'm lost here. It's very expensive regardless though.

You hurried to the poor snake in the hall. You reach them just in time and give them the much needed pills. Already you can see the green pale in their face. Good job! You've healed a snake...you think.

Sit with them while they recover.

Exciting! Ask the danger noodle's name.

How much longer until you arrive?

Walk them back to their room and stay by their side until you know they're going to be alright.

No good deeds go unpunished. I'd say don't ask for it, but if Snek offers to pay for it later, we accept.

Tell them that they are beautiful, and ask their name obviously.

From the window you can see the outer layer of the city. That means you'll be to your stop in about maybe an hour tops. So you set your bag down and sit on the floor with snake.

Finally you introduce yourself by your name. Molly Misk.

"Oh that's a nice name for a mouse. Molly Misk Mouse. Kind of alliterative." The snake muses a little. The pills seem to have been fast acting.
"I'm Olly Wiggles." The snake hisses.
From this point on you both talk about many things. Olly's hoodie. Which is a cotton blend that they tie the arms to the back as to look like a bow and act like a belt since it's just a little too big. Neat.

Olly also offers a reimbursement of what you spent on medicine. And keeps saying oh what a life saver you are. It's almost enough to make you blush. Almost.

Tell him to keep the money. It was only just one credit after all. Just as long as he is better is all that mattered.

Ask if it's their first time going to the city. Maybe we can hang out later.

Olly explains that Oils are like potions. They can be slathered into the fur or taken orally. Olly specializes in Drug oils. It's quite lucrative. And they could go on and on about all the oils they mix.

Charms are little totems Olly says they sell to bring good luck, prosperity, vitality, and other such.

"I would show you one...but I don't have any on me when I travel. It's considered...'illegal' to take them over borders." Olly explains.

That's all Olly says about Pawpulpus.

That doesn't look like rubbing their snooter. Rub that snooter and ask for more information about the north side.

so north side is the rough side of town then huh?

So where does your cousin live in town? Or you don't know.

Well you have some time before your stop, ask Olly about some of their travels. I mean they did say that they are returning from a trip so that might mean they move around alot.

Ask if they ever visited Plainston, your hometown.

...you know, with the lack of eyelashes, I'm thinking Olly's a boy that likes to be girly.

Molly doesn't have eyelashes either, and boys tend to have longer eyelashes naturally so I don't understand your argument.

i think olly is genderwhat bc theyre utterly delighted to not be instantly seen as a boy or a girl

anyway, have they been to plainstown? whats wrong with the bad neihbourhood?
make sure you dont accidentally take their bag, thougj.

>>725888
There have been a few images with her having visible eyelashes, and I know it isn't true in real life, this is a trope.

Another similar reason is that female characters are typically written as to be insulted if someone can't tell they're a girl, while Olly seems to be taking it as a compliment.
You'd think Olly would dress more masculine if they were trying to look boyish, anyway. The bow makes them look girly if anything.

It's not working

Have the sudden recollection that Ollie told you transporting oils over borders was illegal, yet her bag seemed to be full of them. Also did your cousin use to dress like that before she moved to the city, or is this her new fashion?

>>726474
Were you aware that your cousin was employed as a streetwalker, cause dang.

Tell your cousin that you met a long wiggly warm and charming snake on the train.

Your cousin is quite...saucy.

What was her job here, again?

>>726482
hey now, thats her cousin, theyre related

greet her!! and tell her about your trip!! ask her how shes doing!!

Maybe they just meant transporting charms was illegal? The phrasing was ambiguous.

Proceed towards cousin. Initiate conversation.

You finally made it to Pawpulpus! And there is your Cousin Candy waiting for you at the station! You greet her with a big hug! You haven't seen her since you both were small!

To you it seems City life is treating her well. She looks fashionable after all. And being from the countryside you can't really say what City fashion is all about. Especially for someone like your hip Cousin Candy!

You tell her about your trip! You're going a mile a minute due to your excitement! You tell her about Olly and the Oils you saw. But can see in her stare that it's not really coming through.

You ask how she's doing...

She's replies that she's fine.

Ask what she does for fun in this city

Geez girl, why are you imagining Olly naked? At least wait until the first date.

Ask cuz if there's any good places to eat around here. You're hungry after that long train ride.

Call parents. Tell them you've arrived at the city safely.

>>726680
To be fair, Olly wasn't wearing pants to begin with.

Ask how her mornings been.

ask her how the city life has been treating her.

>>726680
This. We are mice not men. Let us bond over cheesy goodness.

Your cousin looks like she is stressed or worried about something and pretending to in a good place for you specifically. I wouldn't push it right now.

Tell her that you're happy to be in town with her. Let her show you around. Go out to eat if you're hungry.

You been on the train for a few hours so you ask your cousin about eating.

Sure enough she obliges you and leads you to a cute little cafe a little ways down from the station.

It's called Francine's~

Before you go in you give your parents a brief phone call. Tell them that you made it and met up with Candy. They say they love you and tell you to enjoy your vacation!

You take a seat outside on the patio and you both order.

You order a glass of water and some cheddar biscuits. They're not AS GOOD as your cheddar biscuits. But for city folk they're pretty decent.

Candy orders Cheese, grapes and wine.

You ask her what's there to do in Pawpulpus?

"Well, If you're visiting for a while you gotta get registered at City hall so you can get a credits card....there's also plenty of shopping, I can show you all my favorite boutiques. You're my guest so don't you even worry about spending a single credit~ Oh and later tonight I can show you the hottest club. I love three blocks down from~" She sighs as she swivels her wine around.

How about a summer job? Anyone hiring?

Swivel your water around in your glass like a classy dame

>>726716
Yeah, mimic her swirling her drink.

Ask what the club's called.

>>726714
Shopping could be fun but you don't want to impose too much having her buy a bunch of things for you!

And sure, you'd love to go out and have a good time with her tonight.

Ask at what part of the city these locations she wants to show us are at. We want to avoid the north side if we can.

>>726714
Ask if she knows any pet stores nearby. Not to buy, just look at the cuties.

Expel liquid violently from every orifice.

well she seems to have things planned out pretty well, don't see why you can't go along with it. But don't try to buy to much if she's paying. You're still her guest after all and shouldn't take advantage of her generosity.

Also catch up with her. I mean you haven't seen her in years so might as well ask her how the things have been since you two last saw each other.

This is gonna be the bestest vacation ever, and Candy's gonna teach us so much cool city stuff!

chew on your button to calm your nerves if you need to.

ask about her boyfriend/girlfriend.

Be careful! Olly mentioned anyone could be in the pocket of the undercity ruler- who better to help out a mouse down on their luck than the boss of the city? Candy mentioned hard times, and now shes working with drugs! In the North side of town ! Just be on your best behavior and don't let your guard down!

We should trust our cousin, because she helps people.

Physical therapy, ask if she can talk about some of her clients. No names of course, just what ails them and how she's treating them.

Ask how one goes about obtaining employment in the exciting fields of hands on physical therapy and pharmaceutical distribution. Did she have to go to school?

Day one in the city and we've already met two drug dealers, a working gal, and a smuggler. And we've only met two people!

Ohhh, she was talking her job up but not THAT far up. Massage parlors can be legit, and it makes sense for her to dress like that if she's running one. Bring them in with a bit of skin, but you don't have to give them the skin.

So yeah, your cousin is gonna be fine to hang out with. She must not be in a bad part of the bad part of town.

You'll think about it. For now, time to hit the bed.

It appears to be light out. I say city hall.

When you're done complementing your cousin success, and getting anxious by your comparative lack of, change the subject to something else.
It would be nice to know what she does for fun. Maybe ask for advice on differentiating the gender of reptiles.

Molly, do you even know what you'd LIKE to do professionally yet? You can't compare yourself to others until you at least know what you want to do.

It's ok Molly, everyone develops at their own pace. It doesn't make you better or worse than anyone else.
Ask what made her decide to go to the city! How did she feel?

>>732486
...boy, did we take that in the wrong direction.

Well, neat! Massage parlors can be nice- easy to work out the kinks.

And...well, okay, maybe she lives on the border of the bad part of town. Thinking about it, I was in a similar situation for a while where I was living in an apartment in a kind of 'no-man's land' between the ghetto and decent middle-class.

So, what do you figure you two will be doing for fun? Big place like this, you're probably gonna have to decide where to go in advance.

See this is why you don't headbutt people, all it does is make them angry, to get out of awkward situations you need to make everybody else feel as awkward as you so you need to do something to confuse or disorientate them.
Keep this in mind as you enter the building then go and disembowel the first person you come across, this will leave everyone feeling as awkward as you are normally do.
