The event.

You hear the alarm. It is playing a noise that does not sound entirely unlike your favorite song. What do you do? [[Silence the alarm and keep sleeping]] [[Get out of bed]] [[Ignore the alarm altogether]]

[[Start Game.]]

You stay in bed. After all, you don't have anything important do do, [[right?]]

You wake up, and remember that today, you have some sort of formal event. You cannot remember what it is, however. You take your nice suit out of the drawer, right next to the clown sui-wait, what? You do not remember having a clown suit. But now is not the time for pondering your odd attire posessions. Do you want to [[get some breakfast]]? You have time! Or, do you just want to [[make your way towards whatever occasion]]? Your choice.

You realize that you have a very important event to attend to. But it can't have been so important if you slept through it. You can't even remember what it was, much less why it was important. [[It doesn't really matter, right?]]

You remember that you have a very important event to attend today. And it just so happens, you are late. Do you want to [[get dressed and rush to the event?]] Or do you want to [[ignore this thought.]]

You take some clothes from the drawer without even stopping to care what you take. Do you want to just [[run to the event]], or do you want to [[get some breakfast]]?

You miss the very important event. You cannot even remember what it is, much less why it could be so important. [[It doesn't really matter, right?]]

You cannot remember what it is you are running to, but it must be really important if you are skipping breakfast. You never skip breakfast! Unfortunately, you just realized what it was that you pulled out of the drawer. Your clown suit. It was a gift--you swear! You wonder why you even had that in the same drawer as your business suit. Perhaps the organizer-droid had seen that they were both suits and never bothered to differentiate. Too late to turn back now, you say. [[Proceed.]]

You have a nice, good breakfast, consisting of a mug of black coffee, a poached egg, and some fruit. You decide to get going towards the event, having had a delicious meal. [[Proceed.]]

Wrong. Game over. You have found: BAD ENDING![[Play again?]]

You [[go to the event]].

You believed this event to be some kind of formal meeting. [[SURPRISE!]]

You have a nice, relaxing walk to wherever you may be going. [[Proceed.]]

It just so happens to be your birthday, and your colleauges have had the forethought to prepare a wonderful party for you! There's so much to do! Do you want to [[have cake?]] Or perhaps [[talk with your friends?]] Or maybe even [[have a glass of sweet, nourishing, fluid?]] The choice is yours! Enjoy it, because in this authoritarian world, "The choice is yours" are the last four words you ever expect to hear.

You have some cake. It is rather delicious, like the cake you had on your old homeworld. Ah, memories. Best not to dwell on it though. What will you do now? You have already consumed your allotted slice of cake, so it would be socially unacceptable to have another. What do you do now? Perhaps reconsider your choice not to [[have a glass of sweet, nourishing, fluid?]] The mind-control juice--er Apple juice, yes that's it. The apple juice beckons invitingly. Or will you [[talk with your friends?]] After all, they did throw you this whole party.

You see your old pal, FRIEND UNIT 5279-H. Oh, and there's FRIEND UNIT J-QNX2332! Also, your coworkers WORKER UNIT JOJ-256439 and MBG-5W4N50 are standing around. Looks like everyone showed up. So, do you want to [[say hello to FU 5279-H?]] Or talk to [[FU JQNX2332?]] Or perhaps [[join Worker Unit JOJ-256439 and MBG-5W4N50 in cheerful banter?]]

This sweet, nourishing, fluid turns out to be (either:"a nice refreshing glass of apple juice. [[Enjoy it.]]","mind control fluid.[[Take no notice of the mind control fluid in the juice]]").

You note that luckily, this glass seems not to be one of the glasses that some airhead dumped mind control goo into. Phew. Do you finally go [[talk with your friends?]] Or do you [[need more convincing]]?

You take no notice of the fact that there is mind control gloop iin the juice. To take notice of an attempt to control you like the little, obedient, sheep you are is both rather rude, and somewhat illegal. You can, once again, [[have another glass]], but why you would want to do that is beyond you. Or, maybe you'd like to stop battling the story progression and go [[talk with your friends?]]

Are you sure you want to [[have a glass of sweet, nourishing, fluid?]] I wouldn't if I were you.

The narrator cries "I'm just trying to tell you a story! Is it really too much to ask that you just let my story progress and just [[talk with your friends?]]" Do you do that? Or do you just [[say "No!"?]]

All of my work. All of my writing. All these wasted hours. You got this far. You can't be made to care. [[It doesn't really matter, right?]]

You have a chat with your best buddy, 5279-H. He seems glad to see you, and wishes you a pleasant anniversary of existence. He says so sarcastically, in response to the new language Central authority was shoving down peoples throats. They were both thinking "Birthday", but it was not allowed to use anything but the officially sanctioned terms. However, no part of the law forbade sarcasm. (either:"You chattered for a while, and then the conversation kind of fizzled out.","You lost track of time and talked the whole day through. That was the great thing about you and 5279-H. Between the two of you, no one ran out of things to say. Eventually, the party was over. You said goodbye, thanked the hosts, and then [[took off.]]").

You talk to JQNX2332, but why? You have always hated him. You make uncomfortable chit chat. You then faked some illness, and promptly [[took off.]]

You join WU-JOJ-256439, not calling him by his real name, Joj, and MBG-5W4N50, also not calling him Alex, and talk for a while about how great this party was. You say something that makes JOJ mad, and you get hit in the face. It starts bleeding, but the nanobots in the cake should clean it up. But, [[It doesn't really matter, right?]]

You go home. [[End game]].

Game over. You had fun at the party, and along the way, found the GOOD ENDING!(cue confetti). [[Play again?]]
