Hmm, I'm up for some fire and mayhem after a cheerful Christmas in Afghanistan. Blow up the petrol station!

C it is. I'm going to flip some coins to see if you survive or not! Update on the way.
________________________________________________________________________________________________

Rather than do something calculated and restrained, we decided to ignite the petrol station. Probably a stupid idea, but it would definitely attract a few zombies.

A few minutes later, we had emptied fuel all over the ground, covering the entire building in flammable petrol (or gas, whatever). Leaving a fairly thick trail from a jerrycan a good distance away from the building, we ignited the petrol and ran for it. We attracted a number of zombies in the process, but we were moving at a fast enough speed to get around the groups. At least, I was. Jacob was tackled to the ground by one of the sprinting ones, and before I could do anything he was already mobbed by about thirty zombies, coming out of buildings to see what was causing all the bright lights and smoke.

At that moment, the fuel tanks went off. I could feel the heat from here, and the fires were already spreading. Worse, the zombies seemed to lose interest in the fire fairly quickly, but the noise and lights were attracting them and waking them from their mostly docile states. I couldn't see the besieged flat from where I was, and had no clue if our plan was working or not.


Choices:

a) Take a jump to the left, and then a step to the right. (Do the time warp?)
b) Go back (towards the deathfire of death) and try to save Jacob.
c) Go towards the besieged flat.
d) Try and find those other Weirdly Disciplined Guys.
e) Get The Fuck Out, Run The Fuck Away, Fuck Everything And Run and save yourself.


Hints
- Nice job breaking it, hero.

Update postponed due to massive amounts of personal crap that I'm not going to go into details of.

(Just letting you know, you can time warp back to before blowing up the petrol station if you really want to, it's option A. I probably wouldn't have resisted the pretty explosions either, so you're getting a get out of jail free card.)

Can't we just do the dance? I don't really want to go back in time to save my least favorite character. I just want to shake my ass off.

Yes, you can just dance. But you'll die.

And what do you mean "least favourite character?" I haven't characterised anyone, how can you have a "least favourite" blank slate?

I'm willing to take the risk.

That's the problem for me. We don't know anything about Jacob except that he likes guns and owns a bookstore. There's no emotional attachment that encourages me to go back and help him.

That's just my opinion. There's nothing stopping you from going back.

Two Words: High School. If I had more than two words, I'd say more things, like "Technical Theatre" and "Dark Souls" and "Broken Laptop", but yeah.

I'm tired of having to give you guys excuses, and I'm having trouble actually fitting the events into some kind of plausible canon. If you want, I can just do a recap and finish this as a short story, or just stop writing, or do a recap and let you keep voting from there, or whatever. Just give me a shout if you're still interested, and I sincerely apologise for leaving you guys hanging.


CHOICES:
a) Nin does a recap of Just Another Day, and the story continues from the end of the recap.
b) Nin continues from this point right here, plot holes and all. (After the explosion)
c) Nin recaps JAD, and finishes it in the form of a short story with a possibly happy ending.
d) Nin abandons story, never to return.
e) Nin starts over! From the beginning, with coherence. And possibly less railroading.
f) You (yes, you) make a suggestion!


Also, if you stick with me I shall post images of myself and friends dressed up as characters from the webcomic Romantically Apocalyptic. Not that that's much incentive, but for any stalkers out there you should be able to track my Ebay history and find out where I live if you recognise the components of the costumes.

I just stumbled upon this thread today. I want to see what will happen to the blank slates next. I'ma go with B. FYI my favorite blank slate is the cop with the riot gear.
