New adventure about birds. And crimes. Bird crimes, crimes that are performed specifically by birds. Also something sburb-like I guess, but only distantly related to it. Read on MSPFA (look familiar? that's because it's the same birds from my cancelled adventure)
also there's a discord

Check if the key unlocks the cell. Keep the key anyway, it might make a handy weapon/tool/distraction later.

Just mosey on over. Agree that the stairs are *ridiculous*, and don't even get you started on the layout and lighting. Not OSHA approved. You should write a letter to your labor board.

Leave the broken camera behind on the stair case. A) If the guards continue to be inquisitive, they'll have something new to puzzle over for a half hour. B) They might get tripped up. C) You won't have to carry it's weight up the stairs.

since mspfa will be down for an indefinite amount of time, i get to have the boundless joy of mirroring the entire thing here now! wonderful. let's get started Your name is XELISTA TICIUS. You like to fashion yourself as some sort of dashing rogue - working from the shadows, "borrowing" things whenever you please, and pissing off the monarchy at every given opportunity.
Not that you can do any of that from in here, though.
Two whole weeks you've been stuck in this shitty dungeon. You guess that's not a whole lot compared to the rest of the poor souls in here, but usually you get out of here way faster than this. Seems they've gotten a bit smarter after the last two times you were chucked in here.
Of course, you're still gonna bust this joint eventually. The only reason you're still around is you've been waiting on your partner in crime to come help you out. But, given that there's been no sign of them they're probably busy with a situation of their own. Not really surprising, that one's always getting into some sort of ridiculous shenanigans.
Well, you're probably not gonna fly this coop by sitting around, so the question arises: What will you do? Xelista: Dab.
How, exactly, does that help you out? Will this course of action somehow instantly free you from your imprisonment? Granting you mystical powers as you fly off into the stars?
What you're trying to say is, you'll dab later, once you're free and stuff.
Xelista: Attempt to push down one of the walls.
You give it a few taps, but not a lot happens. You're not exactly the strongest person in the universe, so you don't plan on trying any harder than this since it'd just waste your energy.
Xelista: Examine shackle.
Oh, this thing.
They slapped this on you the first time you wound up in here. You can't exactly remove it - the damn thing's enchanted or something, meaning the only one who can take it off is the one who put it there in the first place, the ROYAL MAGE. And you don't really fancy running into her any time soon.
The only real function it provides is to be heavy - not restricting your ground movement at all, but preventing any form of aerial travel. So really, you're gonna have to walk this coop. Whatever.
You're just lucky they outlawed wing clipping aeons ago.
Xelista: Try opening the door, maybe it's unlocked.
Nope. Sturdy as ever. You've already tried this a couple of times. Figures that they'd be more vigilant after it worked the last time.
Xelista: Try to squeeze through the bars.
You swear these ideas keep getting better and better. Surely, you are the very model of productivity.
Xelista: Fashion a mattress spring into a lockpick.
This shitty thing doesn't even have any springs! It's just a bunch of straw.
...Hey, wait a second. There's something in there after all.
You're starting to feel like you might possibly be an idiot.
Wow. Right there the whole time, huh. You've been sitting on it for two weeks, huh.
Whatever. What matters is you've got it now, which means you're getting the hell outta here.
The door clicks open.
You take a moment to dust yourself off and prepare for what's coming next. Getting out of the cell was only the first step.
After all...
It's gonna be one hell of a climb.
...Hm?
Looks like she's seen you already. You thought as much - there's not a lot that gets past her.
You make sure to thank her for the wonderful job she's doing of keeping you behind bars.
Xelista: Take the camera off the wall.
Sure. After all, you never know when you might need oh who are you kidding you just want to steal it because it's there.
You've just gotta sort of
hup
Nailed it.
...Wait. Huh? It's not coming off. You figured that with the extra weight of the shackle you'd be able t
oH SHIT NEVERMIND.
ow
You stash it in your inventory.
Wow, one of these days you've probably gotta start thinking things through before you do them.
And, wonderful. Looks like your stunt attracted some attention. Just what you need right now.
This is probably a bad situation.
The question is, what are you going to do about it?
Alright, think. Think think think.
You guess, if you wanted to, you could try fighting them. But they're probably both packing very sharp and pointy things, and without your bow or your armor, your only weapon is a key. Somehow, you feel this course of action may not go optimally.
On the other hand, you could try to talk your way out of this. You'd like to think you're pretty charming, so maybe you'd get out a few hilarious witticisms before you were skewered. There's no real way for you to convince them that you're not breaking out however, so it's probably not worth the amazing dialogue you could contribute.
...Which leaves you with just one option.
You take a moment to dim your luminescence, looking around for a good place to hide.
Of which there are none. It's pretty barren at the bottom of the tower. Sure, you could probably hide in a cell, and then it'd take them an extra few seconds to find you...
wait you have a stupid idea
You're just gonna... hide over here. This will definitely work. Possibly.
There is absolutely no reason that should've worked. None whatsoever. Why did that work.
At least now that you're on up on the stairs, you can...
wait
wait why did you climb up like that you could've just walked around you fucking idiot

At least you're not as idiotic as these two. You kinda wonder whether you shouldn't've tried breaking out immediately. Are all the guards this unobservant?
Nah, surely not. You swear there were some competent guards around here somewhere. Should probably get going before they show up, actually.
Xelista: Leave the camera on the stairs.
You guess that could be funny. It'd confuse those two even more, and could possibly even buy you some time as they try to figure out how it got there.
But fuck that, it's your camera now. You stole it fair and square, and you're not giving it up that easily.
Xelista: Look for other inmates.
There's plenty around. Most are asleep though, and you don't really have time to spend waking them up. Besides, letting anyone else out could be dangerous, as they'd be highly likely to stab you in the back the second you got out.
Of course, you'd stab them in the back first. That's just common sense.
Xelista: Climb.
You climb.
And climb.
aaaand climb
why are there so many fucking stairs
