Handcuffed in an Elevator of Forced Honesty

[theuserabides]

Choosing is hard, so instead, you're getting three memes for the price of one:

HANDCUFFED IN AN ELEVATOR OF FORCED HONESTY
Surely you know how this works by now. You're stuck, and there's nothing to do but ride it out. Why do these things keep happening to you? What things? Read on.
1. Handcuffed!
➝	Congratulations, you're now handcuffed to someone. Maybe your best friend, maybe your worst enemy. And those handcuffs are proving awfully hard to get out of, no matter how strong, sneaky, or shapeshifter-y you are.
2. Trapped in an Elevator!
➝	The stupid thing was working when you got into it, but now it's stopped moving, and even pounding on the buttons and yelling has no effect. You're just going to have to talk to/fight/murder/make out with whoever's stuck in there with you.
3. Forced Honesty!
➝	This sudden compulsion to tell the truth you've found yourself experiencing could become very inconvenient if the wrong person were to ask you the right question. Or the right person were to ask you the wrong one...
Choose your poison and put it in the subject line. Or, if you can't decide, let Fortuna choose for you. Go to random.org and generate a number between 1 and 4. Why 4? Because 4 is handcuffed in an elevator of forced honesty, of course. PS. You can always cheat on your die roll.

[well it was working two seconds ago!!!]

[she'll just. bang on the doors now.]

[revvedup]

[ max isn't any happier about their current situation than katniss is, but she knows panicking is only going to make it worse. she tries to get between her and the doors in an attempt to get her to stop pounding on them. ]

Stop. You're gonna hurt yourself. [ she glances behind her and takes a small step forward. ] Stand back, they might start up again soon.

[accidentalspark]

[frowning, she steps back with a bit of a huff, but glances over at the controls and buttons]

Should we push something?

[revvedup]

It's worth a shot. [ she pushes the button for the next floor, but no dice. ]

[accidentalspark]

[she walks over, pushes some more herself]

[but you know, nothing happens, so she walks back over to the door and gives a failed attempt to pry them open. and then a kick. 8|]

[revvedup]

[ gdi katniss if you break a bone max is not going to set it for you 8| ]

There's gotta be a way to call out of here, maybe reach one of the AIs. [ because for whatever reason she doesn't have her wearable on her. ]

...Son of a bitch.

[ Yeah, that would be the elevator grinding to a halt. His day just got a hundred times better. ]

[revvedup]

[ max groans, rolling her eyes and slumping back against the wall of the elevator. ]

You've gotta be kidding me.

[articletwelve]

[ The buttons are unresponsive, but that doesn't stop Wash from pressing them, trying to figure out what the hell's gone wrong. ] Come on, it was working fine on the way down...

[revvedup]

[ meanwhile, max is pulling out her wearable to try and contact someone who can get them out, but for all intents and purposes, it's not working, either. ]

What the hell... [ she looks up, frowning, and waves her wearable at wash. ] Do you have yours on you?

[articletwelve]

Huh? Oh-- yeah, let me--

[ He flips open his own, intending to call someone for help, but... no dice. The damn thing's not responding at all, and he lets out a curse as he flips it shut, turning back to the buttons and looking around for some way to get the panelling off. ]

That goddamn A.I. must be on the fritz.
