Firey: well-! ahem they are on.. a BIIIIG LONG ADVENTURE!

Leafy: YYYYES, and they will NNNOT come back for a long timeeee!

Firey: REAALLY BIG, REALLY AWESOME.

-@welcometohotelosc

"... And they left us? How rude! I thought they would at least remember there were two members missing before they left to go on that cool sounding adventure!"

[splotch-spot1]

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhh..

-@welcometohotelosc

"... What's wrong? Why are you guys not responding??? Did I say something wrong?"

[splotch-spot1]

Leafy: ..are we that short-

*Cue Firey cutting off Leafy (thought he fainted??)*

Firey: Dunno, everyone just, left.

Firey: There's Candleton, then there's Dusk's Domain, then there's Icia's Kingdom..

Firey: The Circus is collecting dust as we speak!

-@welcometohotelosc

"wow! That sounds very confusing! Are those all Caine's adventures? What happened to him? What happened to EVERYONE?"

[splotch-spot1]

*blink blink*

*They both look at each other, then back at you.*

*..Firey's the first one to faint.*

Leafy: I- uh- hi..???

Leafy: you're.. the first person we've seen since.. a year since we stepped out?

-@welcometohotelosc

"'stepped out'? Everyone left? :("

"that's horrible! Why would anyone leav?—woooaahh! You're so small! You're like... As short as me! If I didn't have my box and spring, of course! Hehehe!"

[splotch-spot1]

*Firey walks around the box, before running around again for a second look.*

Firey: ..There's no crank on the side >:1

Leafy: Then.. knock on it.

*She pushes Firey foward with force.*

*..He shrugs.*

*..knock knock!*

Nothing happened.

...

BOOM!

A colorful person popped out of the box, their expression joyful and their excitement making them bounce all over the place.

"HELLOOO my friends! I've come back from my naaaaa..."

"... Uoh no! What happened here? I swear it was a lot more... colorful, the last time I saw it!"

[splotch-spot1]

Firey: Leafy, come on, what's actually wrong?

Leafy: Firey, I swear I'm fine.

Firey: ..are you still on last yeeeer..

*They both stop in their tracks.*

*..A box!*

Leafy: ..uhhhhhh.

A box? Where did THIS come from? You've never seen this around here before... Was this box here this entire time or did this just appear out of nowhere?

It seems it's been sitting there for a while. What do you do?
