Understand "scotty" as yourself. Understand "you" as yourself. The description of yourself is "[one of]You're the hero of the day, the man everyone looks up to, the uncontested champion of the Free World, the celebrated superstar - Captain McBrawn.[paragraph break]Or at least you would like to be. The truth is that y[or]Y[stopping]ou are Scotty, Captain McBrawn's short and a bit round sidekick. You have followed him on his adventures and helped him mostly by staying out of his way, but now you have a mission of your own." The creature response of yourself is "'My name is Scotty,' you introduce yourself.[paragraph break]'Nice to meet you, monkey boy,' [the creature] says.[paragraph break]'Scotty.'[paragraph break]'What did you say, monkey boy?'". The guard response of yourself is "'Don't you know who I am[interrobang]' you demand.[paragraph break]'NO,' the guard replies.[paragraph break]'Well... uh... I'm Scotty,' you say." After examining yourself: try taking inventory. Instead of attacking yourself: say "You slap yourself around for not finding an escape yet." Instead of listening to yourself: say "That's a good advice." Instead of smelling yourself: say "You don't smell that bad.[if the creature is present][line break][c]Well, everyone is entitled to their opinion,' [the creature] says." Instead of eating or tasting yourself: say "You lick yourself but don't taste anything out of the ordinary." Instead of looking through yourself: say "You can't see through yourself.[if the creature is present][line break][c]No, but if you turn your head a little I can see from your left ear through the right,' [the creature] comments." |
