> Examine posters.
These are your FAKE LADIES you mean FAKE LADY PICTURES. They are the only reference you have as to what other people look like. Originally you thought they were cute, but now they're mostly just depressing. > Look under the rug.You roll up your CARPET, which is where you sleep. There is a BUTTON on the floor! You depress it aggressively. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to actually do anything at the moment.

> Shimmy into the air duct.Sadly, the CHUTE's apparent closeness to you is merely a trick of perspective. You have fallen for this on numerous occasions. It's like, look, the exit is right over there by the wall, right? Wrong. It is actually above you in the air. You've gotten used to this by now, but you still fall for it, sometimes.

> Take a refreshing drink from your water fountain.
You drink some WATER from your SINK. Its drain is the only exit you have access to, and you are too big to fit down it. (As are most people. You assume. Probably all people?) You don't know where it gets all this WATER from, but it's never ran out. Due to necessity, you also have to use this SINK for less sanitary purposes. > What's that panel on the wall next to the fountain?It's just a PANEL. You presume there is some kind of electric wiring behind it, but you don't know for sure. You don't have any means with which to open it.

Read your book in the corner. Do you like reading?

> Read your book in the corner.It's your copy of FOLIAGE MAUSOLEUM, a doorstopper of a novel. In this experimental and chilling tale, an unreliable narrator discovers an unpublished manuscript while working in the back room of an old library. The information he reads on those pages causes him a considerable amount of anxiety and fear, and it becomes hard to tell what parts of the story are actually happening or are merely the protagonist's attempts to understand his life through the lens of the document. You think it's a masterpiece, but you've also memorized it by now so there's no real point to reading it again.

> Examine computer.This is your computer, which you spend a lot of time on pretending to be productive by maintaining a record of your thoughts and writing stories and such. But you know it doesn't really help. Occasionally, an internet signal comes in. There isn't one now, though, and you never get any messages anyway.

> What is "love"?It's a very simplistic MESSAGING PROGRAM. Its primary function is to taunt you with its lack of incoming messages every time you log on. Using your computer is like gambling, except you always lose, and then the dealer punches you in the gut.

Maybe start by sending a message out, just cast a wide net. Maybe you have no incoming messages because the world doesn't know you're here. Say the first word.

This update was going to be longer, but it had been a while since I had posted so I decided to post what I had come up with so far so that I didn't lose momentum and forget to work. I know there's nothing much to do right now, which is why the update was going to be longer, it would have moved things forward more. I will still do that if I need to, but here's an update for now anyway.
