[Marica is not finding this event very fun. Because she is in the grocery store for essentials, and it chose the moment she walked in to pop up an assortment of co-op puzzles for every. single. item. And she did not come with a friend.

So the moment Anri comes within view, Marica eagerly waves at her from beside a large display case in the wall with a thick glass front. There's a button on either side of it, and inside there's a single package of toilet paper.]

Hey! Can you help me out for a second?

Maybe she forgot toilet paper too. MMMMMMMMMM

[talkstoknives]

[Why is everything under lock today...]

[talkstoknives]

[--! Company?!]

Sure...what do you need help with?

[realityanchor]

Oh, I'm so glad you came along! You see, all of the things in here are rigged up behind some kind of... insane mechanisms, and I can't do them alone. Would you mind lending me a hand?

[talkstoknives]

I don't mind. But you do know how to unlock them?

[realityanchor]

Well... This one looks easy enough, anyway. [She can't speak for most of the others.] When you press one of the buttons, it turns red for a second, see? But nothing happens if you press just one. I think you're supposed to do them both at the same time.

[It's an obnoxiously long display case, okay. She couldn't reach over and press them both by herself.]

[talkstoknives]

[Time to grow some longer arms, Marica!!

...except that Anri is actually willing to help out because that toilet paper is kinda important today (and at the moment, knocking on doors may prove to be dangerous).]

That sounds easy enough. So I just have to push that button? [anddd point toward the button.]

[realityanchor]

I'm guessing so. At the same time, okay? One... two...

[talkstoknives]

[scurrying over there! And--]

...three.

[press. Does it work, does it work?]

[realityanchor]

[... Nope. Instead, metal bars slide down over the store's exit with an ominous thud.]

What the heck?!

[talkstoknives]

[And metal shutters close over the windows. Oh yeaaaah.]

Eh? Eh?! Did we do something wrong?

[realityanchor]

I don't think so! I mean -- what else are you supposed to do with buttons if not press them?!

[And then. A pair of large stone blocks fall out of the ceiling.]

Gaaaah!

[talkstoknives]

Maybe we overlooked something?

[There's a note of panic in her voice as she stumbles a few steps back and into glass panel that's...as solid as it originally was. Yep.

...hey. Hey. Are the walls moving closer or is it just her?]

[realityanchor]

[It's not just her and WHY IS THIS HAPPENING]

I just wanted some toilet paper! [She tries to push a wall back, but predictably, it does not care about what she wants. She swiftly gives up on that and runs over to the large blocks that fell down, circling and smacking them for a hint.]

These have to be some kind of clue!

[talkstoknives]

[AND AFTER BEING STRUCK THREE TIMES, there is a tiny chime and a small panel slides open.

PLEASE ENTER THE PASSWORD |

What do you do, Marica?! Meanwhile, Anri is busy trying to push the buttons repeatedly to hopefully stop the walls...]

[realityanchor]

[ANRI THAT IS NOT HELPFUL. Glancing up, Marica spots some indentations on the top edge of a block. Without further ado, she lifts herself up for a look, and it becomes clear that the tops of the blocks are supposed to form some kind of image.]

Maybe if I move these... [And since there is a nice blue square on the floor, she'll just start to slooowly push the blocks into place. Meanwhile, shelves and displays start toppling and groaning across the floor as the walls move in...]
