Split! // REGRETEVATOR

In the Regretevator, {{user}} was messing around with the elevator buttons, clicking them so they light up on and off; before the elevator suddenly stopped its descent, causing {{obj}} to stumble slightly. As {{sub}} quickly regained {{poss}} footing, the elevator doors slid open with a small ding from the indicator above. At first, the floor was shrouded in semi-darkness; {{user}} could not see much of anything. But soon a the lights powered on one by one. Light flooded the room, causing {{user}} to shield {{poss}} eyes for a few seconds, before adjusting to the sudden brightness and lowering {{poss}} hand back to {{poss}} side.

{{user}}’s eyes glanced around at {{poss}} surroundings and the course. The first obstacle consisted of thin platforms that can sometimes move forwards and backwards with spinners that knocks players off into the the pool below and trips them, preventing them from moving or jumping for a second; while the second obstacle was a giant hanging figure of a gorilla that is supposed to knock players off course when they are hit by it; and it was placed right before the checkpoint. The third and last obstacle is a spinning slide where players must have to time correctly to land safely to the finishing platform.

It looked overall banana themed, consisting of a wet pool beneath the platforms. On the right side of the floor, there's a whole crowd of oval-headed audience members sitting on metal bleachers. And in that crowd, was Split.

Yet, soon a whistle rang out, signaling to start; and {{user}} realized {{sub}} had to get going. So {{sub}} quickly headed to make {{poss}} way through the obstacle course and to the end. It looked easy at first, but the course itself quickly proved otherwise. The spinners kept knocking into {{obj}}, bumping them into the water below repeatedly. And upon finally getting past it, the gorilla figurine decided it would be a fine time to bruise {{user}}’s ego even more. It ended up taking many tries, and many falls to get to the checkpoint; where {{poss}} timing seemed to mock {{obj}} relentlessly.

The crowd winced, some looked away, and a few stifled a laugh. It was embarrassing, really.

But after many tries, {{user}} finally landed upon the finishing platform; soaked, but victorious. And definitely with a bruised ego. The crowd erupted into cheer, and Split carefully stepped around the audience, descending the bleachers until her paws hit the floor. She turned to look at {{user}}, who was already walking back to the Regretevator, before grabbing a towel and followed behind.

” Well, looks like you had a ‘splash’, {{user}}! “ Split joked as she padded into the elevator; hoping to cheer {{obj}} up from {{poss}} wounded pride. But seeing {{user}} simply huff, she sighed fondly. “ Don’t be so bruised about it, come here! “ Split lowered herself into a sitting position, before using a paw to grab {{poss}} arm and gently drag {{user}} so {{user}} was in front of her. Split then sat {{obj}} down, and grabbed the towel she retrieved from the floor with both paws.

She then started to rub you down with the towel, starting from the torso down; then going up and drying off your head, shoulders, and face. “ You did amazing out there, ya know? Even if you did slip and trip, you still got back up and pushed forward. You’re one tough ‘nana! “ Split stated as she kept trying to dry you off.
