[Hm. How suspicious.]

There's gotta be a trap here. Everyone else got mauled when they broke into rooms.

[He'll try turning on one of the taps of different-colored water. If there's red, he'll do red first. He's totally expecting a waterfall of blood or some 2spoopy shit like that.]

[slobjection]

Seems it's just us... for the moment. Maybe we should start up a bubble bath for Master Blue.

[ phoenix closes the cabinets and heads over to the bathtub with chuuya to see what the taps do. stay behind him, children ]

[swordflash]

[Who needs a bathtub this big? Zenitsu can hardly believe what he's seeing as he continues to watch with a fretful expression from behind Phoenix, just barely keeping the heavy breathing at bay. Nothing weird had better come out of those faucets. He doesn't want to get mauled.]

[cluedin]

[ It's... red water! As if someone added food coloring to it, though if they dip their hand in it, it does not come out dyed. Weird. It's even a very pleasant temperature.

Though the bath seems impossibly large, it somehow fills up very fast. They might get half a bath tub of red water if they're not careful. ]

[shortforever]

[Well if it's just regular water except red then he'll shut it off. Does it have a smell to it? Also what other color options are available?]

That might work if we ever saw Blue in person. One of the furries might be a better choice. Maybe Plum, she cleans for us a lot.

[slobjection]

.... Somehow I don't think she'd go.for a relaxing bath, even though she deserves one.

[ phoenix is also looking at the colored taps with interest.. he dips a crayon in the water to see if that will do anything ]

[swordflash]

[Hey, the tub filled up pretty fast even if the water didn't fill it all the way. That's eerie.

While Phoenix tests the water, Zenitsu chances a look around the bathroom. There's still nothing there, right? Not even on the ceiling? This isn't what he was expecting at all.]

Hey, how are we gonna get out if the door's locked behind us?

[cluedin]

[ it smells like........water. There's all the colors of the rainbow available to test out. Phoenix's crayon is not wet. It really is just red colored water, apparently!

There's nothing on the ceiling! There's seemingly nothing in this room outside the bath, the sinks, the toilet and the cabinets. ]

[shortforever]

Well, this room seems normal, somehow. I kinda expected something to try to eat us, but normal is better anyway. We can get the whole group and have everyone come back.

[So yeah, he'll walk over to the door and try to open it.]

[slobjection]

Hm... If it were really that normal, we would be able to leave right off the bat.

[ phoenix tries to mix a few other colors in the bath, but his attention is also on the kids so he can jump into action if needed ]

[swordflash]

[Can it really be so simple? Maybe it can be. Gulping, Zenitsu slowly strays from Phoenix to approach the sinks and mirrors.

Nothing weird at first glance, right? Right? Please say, "Nope."]

[cluedin]

[ Chuuya tries to open the door... and then the door opens and you're free! Just kidding. Can you imagine? It's shut tight. The doorknob doesn't even turn anymore.

There's nothing that happens in the bath except the water doesn't mix to make gross colors, but rather layers and swirls prettily to make beautiful color mixes. Aesthetic.

There's nothing weird about the mirror and sinks at first glance... except one sink has a little blue paw print engraved on the tap. None of the other sinks have this, for some reason. ]

[shortforever]

[He'll try the doorknob a few times before giving up.]

Yeah, no good over here. We have to find another way out.

[slobjection]

[ phoenix turns the bathtub tap off and heads over to the sink.... he will look at the paw print sink in more detail then turn the tap on. ]

[swordflash]

[Great! Phoenix is here! Zenitsu just inches his way behind Phoenix while the tap gets turned on. Every man for himself, Chuuya; find another back.]

[cluedin]

[ There's no water in the tap! Weird. But since they're looking closer... hey, does it almost look like you can press on the blue paw? ]

[shortforever]

[He's coming over to look now. Go ahead and press it, Phoenix.]

[slobjection]

[ gently presses the blue paw..... at least he's in front of the kids ]

[swordflash]

[What's with the blue paw print, anyway? Does Master Blue really like dogs? If the girls are all animals, is he actually a dog himself?

. . . It's been pressed!]

[cluedin]

[ Dogs are good, Zenitsu.

The button is pressed! ...At first, for about thirty second, nothing happens. And then, suddenly, the sink starts to sink (haha) into the floor, vanishing from view. Hiding behind it was apparently a colorful plastic tunnel slide, not unlike the kind you'd see in a water park. It looks dark inside, and they can't tell where it ends.

What will they do? ]

[shortforever]

...

rock-paper-scissors for who goes first?

[slobjection]

I'll head it up. You two stick to me... literally.

[ hold onto dad!! and each other!! ]

[swordflash]

All of us? Together? B-but what if there's no way back up once we've gone down? How are we gonna get back?

[He's not going to be the one who gets left behind, though. No way! So he clings to Phoenix with his good arm.]

[cluedin]

[ The trio step (or, well. sit.) into the tunnel and start their slide! It is wet, and the water is nearly freezing... but not too long into it, it is not nearly as dark as they might have expected. In fact, it gets positively trippy. A jaunty little poem echoes around them in the tunnel as they go.

They are going very fast, and for probably far too long a time, but they can see a split path at some point. Which way will Phoenix lean? Right or left? ]

[slobjection]

[ what the fuck is even happening ]

[ ok they're going right ]
