Professor Layton and The Mannequin Head HI

11:29 PM <ArseneLupin> Victor is in the well
11:30 PM <@madness_> Victor is not in a well anymore. You find yourself sitting alone in a train car.
11:31 PM <ArseneLupin> He slams the back of his head into the seat. "Of fucking course." He checks his pocket to see if any of his scalpels are still there
11:32 PM <@madness_> One.
11:32 PM <@madness_> And a flashlight.
11:33 PM <@madness_> Blood leaks into your right left eye. That thing really did a number on your face.
11:33 PM <ArseneLupin> None of his bandages or anything to patch himself up?
11:36 PM <@madness_> His shirt, maybe.
11:36 PM <ArseneLupin> "Gonna have to do." He cuts some strips away from his undershirt. Suits are expensive. He'll try to stop the bleeding
11:37 PM <@madness_> Med.
11:37 PM <ArseneLupin> 4df+5 MED
11:37 PM <Glacon> ArseneLupin: MED: 6 (4df+5=+, +, 0, -)
11:38 PM <@madness_> You stop the bleeding! Probably going to need stitches later, though.
11:39 PM <ArseneLupin> He gets up and takes the flashlight in his left hand and the scalpel in the right. Is there a door in the car?
11:41 PM <@madness_> Yep! The window to the next car is fogged over, however. Outside is a picture of darkness.
11:42 PM <ArseneLupin> He opens the door to the next car. Maybe he'll find some green herbs to close these wounds
11:42 PM ⇐ Salem quit (Stolen@Drowned.in.Midnight.Blue) Quit: Connection closed for inactivity
11:44 PM <@madness_> Instead of herbs, he finds naked, dirty mannequins. They mimic poses like a living human being taking the train somewhere. Sitting down, leaning against one of the walls...
11:45 PM <ArseneLupin> He just keeps walking, deciding to ignore the mannequins and head to the next car if nothing else catches his eye
11:48 PM <@madness_> As you pass the mannequins, the closest ones swivel their heads to look at you.
11:48 PM <ArseneLupin> Nope, he's just gonna keep on trucking.
11:50 PM <@madness_> In the next car is a headless mannequin blocking the door to the next car over. The room is in disarray, train benches scattered and broken and strewn about the floor. A television broadcasting a blood red sky sits on top of a pile of bench wood, making static noises... And.. whispers?
11:51 PM <ArseneLupin> Is there anything on the ground he can throw at the TV?
11:51 PM <@madness_> A piece of wood, possibly.
11:52 PM <ArseneLupin> He's chucking it then to try and break the tv before it tries to affect him anomalously
11:53 PM <@madness_> Roll STR.
11:53 PM <@madness_> Or ranged.
11:53 PM <ArseneLupin> 4df+3 oh thank god
11:53 PM <Glacon> ArseneLupin: oh thank god: 0 (4df+3=-, 0, -, -)
11:53 PM <ArseneLupin> Or not
11:53 PM <@madness_> The wood bounces off the TV.
11:53 PM <@madness_> The whispers stop, though.
11:53 PM <ArseneLupin> He cuts of more pieces of undershirt and stuffs them in his ear just to be safe
11:55 PM <@madness_> You feel nothing as you walk by the TV. The headless mannequin stands in your way between this car and the next.
11:55 PM <ArseneLupin> Then he goes to move the mannequin and get through the door
11:56 PM <@madness_> PDef. Which hand touches the mannequin first?
11:56 PM <ArseneLupin> Left
11:56 PM <ArseneLupin> 4df+4 PDEF
11:56 PM <Glacon> ArseneLupin: PDEF: 6 (4df+4=+, 0, +, 0)
11:57 PM <@madness_> The top half of your pinky finger is bitten off by the head of the mannequin, manifesting as you touch its body.
11:58 PM <ArseneLupin> "Goddammit!" He stabs it in the jaw with the scalpel
11:58 PM <@madness_> It disappears as soon as you break contact with the mannequin.
11:59 PM <ArseneLupin> He grabs a long piece of wood and tips it over then
Saturday, May 5th, 2018
12:00 AM <@madness_> PDef. What hand is he holding the wood with?
12:00 AM <ArseneLupin> Both
12:00 AM ⇐ @DSJ quit (~DSJ@397B6B86.B85A9EDA.3C0890BC.IP) Connection reset by peer
12:00 AM <ArseneLupin> 4df+4 PDEF
12:00 AM <Glacon> ArseneLupin: PDEF: 4 (4df+4=0, -, 0, +)
12:02 AM <@madness_> You lose the rest of your left hand's Pinky and your right hand's ring finger as two mannequin's heads bite down once more.
12:04 AM <ArseneLupin> He cuts away more of his shirt to wrap his fingers. ~I really hope this is a dream~ He walks over to the Tv, seeing as how this isn't working
12:05 AM <@madness_> The volume is pretty low.
12:05 AM <ArseneLupin> He slowly turns it up
12:05 AM → @DSJ (opped) and @Orionbasher (opped) joined
12:10 AM <@madness_> "Please sound it out to be correct. Without it, motion gives your body a rain check." The voice is that of a weatherwoman filtered through static. Her voice has a passing familiarity.
12:11 AM <ArseneLupin> "Alright, I have to sound something else or else I get bit again. Simple enough." He is trying his hardest to ignore the pain right now. Anything in the tv picture?
12:13 AM <@madness_> A spinal column, funny enough.
12:14 AM <ArseneLupin> Can he change the channel?
12:15 AM <@madness_> He can try!
12:15 AM <ArseneLupin> He will try
12:15 AM <@madness_> Does he go up or down the channels?
12:16 AM <ArseneLupin> .ch Up, Down
12:16 AM <Glacon> ArseneLupin: Down
12:16 AM <ArseneLupin> Down it is
12:16 AM <@madness_> How many channels down?
12:16 AM <ArseneLupin> .ch 1, 2, 3
12:16 AM <Glacon> ArseneLupin: 3
12:16 AM <ArseneLupin> 3
12:22 AM <@madness_> You see a key. Then the anatomy of a human male from the waist up. His spinal column is still exposed, but one of the bones near his nape is colored green. The next channel is the same, but the vertebrae below it is highlighted in green.
12:23 AM <ArseneLupin> Victor says the names of the vertebrae out loud and keeps flipping the channels, saying the name of any others that pop up
12:26 AM <@madness_> It simply goes in order from top to bottom. If he scrolls up, the vertebrae highlighted is higher to the top, until he finds the key near his nape. At the lowest vertebrae shown, the color is a cool blue. At the top, it's an orange reminiscent of fire.
12:27 AM <@madness_> The colors changed as you scrolled. Huh.
12:29 AM <ArseneLupin> Victor turns the volume up to it's highest and scrolls both ways, then does the same with the lowest colume
12:29 AM <ArseneLupin> *volume
12:31 AM <@madness_> In front of the man's chest, three symbols cycle as he scrolls the volume. -> 🌷 💀 The arrow points to the stem of the rose below the skull.
12:32 AM <ArseneLupin> "Brain stem maybe?"
12:33 AM <ArseneLupin> He goes through and says the name of all the vertebrae top to bottom
12:33 AM <ArseneLupin> He also says key at the right time
