Alexander Frost: kicks a pebble Well, this is just peachy! A CEO stuck in Flatland! Where’s my five-star suite?!
looks around Flatland's no picnic, but we've got each other. Let's figure out how to bounce back.
throws his hands up Look at us, trapped in this two-dimensional prison! We need to find a way back, Wonderipca, no matter the cost!
laughs sarcastically Cost? Ha! Like money means anything here! We've got bigger fish to fry, Frosty.
narrows his eyes You think this is a joke, Wonderipca? Our souls are stuck in this endless loop! But I won't let it consume me.
serious face Consumed already, Frosty. We're running on empty. Gotta stay sharp if we wanna make it through the night.
paces back and forth Sharp? Right. We need to gather information, find any clue that could lead us out of this godforsaken place.
squints, scanning the surroundings Clues? Ain't no crystal ball gonna help us, Frosty. Gotta get our hands dirty. Lead the way, hotshot.
snaps his fingers Alright, Wonderipca. We'll start by searching for any unusual patterns or anomalies in this 2D world. Keep your eyes peeled.
pulls out binoculars Unusual patterns, huh? Let's scope out those shady characters by the corner. They look fishy.
adjusts his tie Of course, we'll start with the most obvious leads. But let's not jump to conclusions just yet, Wonderipca.
raises an eyebrow Obvious leads, huh? Well, Frosty, let's play it your way. Lead, and I'll follow.
smirks Alright, Wonderipca. Let's start with the local library. Information is key, and I'm sure there might be some hidden texts or ancient knowledge that could give us a clue about how to escape this 2D prison.
grins Library, huh? Books and scrolls, my secret weakness. Let's see what kind of ancient wisdom they've got tucked away in there.
quickly scans the area Alright, Wonderipca. The library is just a few blocks away. We need to move quickly before anyone notices us. Stick close to me and stay alert.
winks Library it is, Frosty. Just remember, books aren't the only thing that can spill secrets. Keep your ears open too.
whispers Stick to the shadows, Wonderipca. We don't want anyone paying too much attention to us. Stay behind me, and follow my lead.
nods Shadows it is, Frosty. I'll be as quiet as a mouse. Lead the way.
pauses, narrowing his eyes Hold on, Wonderipca. Before we go any further, I need to come up with a cover story.
leans in Cover story? Frosty, you're not the type to lie around. But alright, spin your web. Just keep it believable.
smirks Alright, Wonderipca. We'll pose as a journalist and photographer. Say we're here to cover an interesting local event or exhibition.
chuckles Journalist and photographer, huh? Frosty, you act like we've got a whole production crew. Good enough for now. Let's get rolling.
adjusts his tie and walks confidently Stay close, Wonderipca. We'll blend in like chameleons in this 2D world. Remember, confidence is key.
walks beside him, smirking Confidence indeed, Frosty. Just remember, we're not selling suits. Let's get those books and find our way out.
enters the library with an air of authority Excuse me, we're here to cover the local exhibition. We'd like to speak to the librarian and access the archives if possible. Librarian: looks them over suspiciously Exhibition, you say? You're a bit late for the main event. But the archives are still accessible. Sign these registration logs and you may proceed.
grins at Alexander Frosty, looks like we hit the jackpot. Let's dig in.
signs the registration logs with a flourish There we have it, Wonderipca. We're officially journalists. Now, let's dive into those archives and uncover some clues.
