Step 3: The little things that make up life

[Michael is obviously not talking to anyone, but the journal picks up anyway. There is a catchy theme and unicorn jumping action. He is actually addressing the game.]

This game is rigged! It's impossible. After a certain point, it just becomes inhumanly possible to precede! To make such a thing is irritating and unfair. Unless there is a trick that I missed, a special way to get to the end. Is this like a puzzle? Where the way to win is thinking outside the box?

If I could find a hint somewhere... ah! But that would be cheating!

Maybe I should take a break....

I really wouldn't want you to go out of your way to come here right now-

No problem! [ knocking at his door ] Or do you really want me to come back later?

[kaeru-jyanai.livejournal.com]

Wait, what!?

[Is completely startled, but goes to answer the door.]

That... that really was fast.

Yeah I get that a lot. [ waves ] Hi I'm Bart.

I have to go to bed right now.

[Waves slowly in response.]

Hi, I'm Michael.

[After a moment of just being stunned speechless he quickly moves aside to invite him in.]

Please come in.

No worries. <3

Thanks! [ steps into his room ] I didn't know you could get games right in your room. That's awesome!

So can I play?

[kaeru-jyanai.livejournal.com]

It's on the computer I was using.

[Has no reason to say no, so he just extends his arm offering up the laptop on a nearby desk.]

If you so wish.
