Crapstorm: A New Game: Because... Why Not?

McGill enters the liquor store (Hard Liqs). He passes the checkout counter located at the front of the store and sees four aisles of alcohol-stocked shelves. The first aisle has a sign over it reading “Wine” and the other three aisles have signs that read “Other.” The man at the checkout counter glances up as McGill walks by.

“Everything in the store costs 5lbs,” he says. “If you’re looking for something and it ain’t on a shelf, let me know and I’ll check our storeroom in the back.”

Meanwhile...

Pikachu walks to the food court. About 30 tables are arranged in the center of the area. Five of them are occupied. A man sits at a bench at the largest table, looking back and forth as two others argue vociferously across from him. Elsewhere, a man in a jester’s cap prances about around the occupied tables, throwing food around and otherwise annoying the diners.

Six counters are arranged around the edge of the food court, with signs over each advertising the type of food being served. From left to right, there is a Queen’s Burger, a Taco de Nada, Super Asian Fun Time Food Place!, Sandwitch’s Coven, and Sparbro’s Pizzeria. The counter on the far right is vacant and has no sign.

Meanwhile...

Ward investigates the pharmacy. It’s a Right Aid. There is a sliding glass door in front. Upon entering, Ward sees that there are three long aisles, stretching to the back of the store where a prescription counter is located. The aisles are labeled “Medication” “Personal Care” and “Way Too Personal Care.” A checkout counter at the front of the store has a box of mints on it and a rack of impulse-buy sunglasses next to it.

The medication aisle contains pills for pain, allergies & sinus, cold & flu and upset stomach. There are also pills that claim to relieve symptoms from any possible ailment.

Also note that I changed the third aisle from "Impersonal" to "Way Too Personal". Hadn't thought through what to put where before I posted last.

McGill trots down the first aisle of "other" alcohol, reading the labels: After Quake, Jäggërmëëstër, Abscythe, Goldschlager, McBailey's, Kahluna, Midwestern Comfort.

Meanwhile....

Pikachu sits on the empty counter in the food court.

Pikachu leaves the food court and goes into the first store he sees: a Horizon store. He is immediately accosted by a half dozen sales people, each insisting that he cannot leave unless he buys a phone.

What use have I for the things of this physical world? Besides, whoever heard of ghost at a mall, zombies at malls sure, but ghosts?

McGill leaves the liquor store emptyhanded, having sought vodka.

He did, however, seriously consider picking up some Jäggërmëëstër, just so that the benevolent overseer would have to type umlauts all over the place.

He returns, with Pikachu, to the main group.

"Man, I wish this place had an arcade!"

Ask and you shall receive; seek and you shall find. I didn't feel like coming up with more alcohol choices without knowing what you were looking for. So, if you're still interested...

McGill walks to the end of the aisle and turns around at the back of the store, coming up the fourth aisle. On his way back, he passes the vodka area. There are four brands: Absolute, Great Goose, Pap's Smearnoff and Stolїnђaяўзvжski (wodka). All of the brands come in a variety of flavors (except Stolї's which is only available in "potato".)

Pete sees just what he's looking for! One of the young adult / teen clothing stores is a Hot Dopic. Spider-net leg coverings are selling there for 1lb / pair.

Ward wanders to the personal care aisle. There he sees adhesive bandages, anti-bacterial ointments, non-adhesive bandages, gauze, alcohol (the kind you don't want to drink), cotton balls, q-tips, and multivitamins. In the way-too-personal care aisle, he finds laxatives, petroleum jelly, hemorrhoidal creams and what appears to be a bag of rolled-up latex tubes. There are also girth control pills and, strangely enough, lozenges.

"Treat the symptom, not the cause" is one of the great axioms of medicine.

That's really not true...

Ward attempts to purchase pain pills, miracle pills, gauze, cotton balls, non-adhesive bandages, alcohol, multivitamins, and lozenges.
