If you believe in it, it's probably true. So believe as hard as you want!

Unfortunately, Pablo does not quite have the dexterity required to spin kick the window.

>>3361280
It appears to just be a mirror that reflects the rest of the room. Nothing weird there.

>>3361328
>>3361284
You expend 1 DP into BELIEVING that the door is a very large doggy door set into the wall.

Your overactive imagination also BELIEVES that there is a dogipede behind the door.

You begin hearing its many, many legs almost immediately.

>>3361290
You knock on the door and hear a skittering, rough bark in response.

>>3361331
Well, you spent a DP so you're feeling a little more in touch.

>>3361338
Now, see, I thought this was Ruby Quest but it actually appears to be Problem Sleuth. That works as well.

Open the doggy door.

>>3361348
Who says it can't be both?

dogipede's happy that you've paid the bills on time

>>3361356
You no longer have enough DP to believe new things into existence, at least not at the moment!

They do not look very friendly.

>>3361442
Fun fact: the dogipede's other ear just so happens to be the exact same shade of grey as the mirror.

>>3361442
Have our reflection in the mirror fight it off! It's got to be some sort of horrific monstrous parody of ourselves, right? Should have plenty of oomph.

Can we try to get around our mirror double and jump into the hole the DOGIPEDE made?

>>3361541
High five our mirror duplicate.

Also QM says huffing monster blood gets us imagination points back.

Huff some monster blood when you get the chance.

>>3361580
It's probably not safe to do that here but you can try it if you want.

Trick mirror-self into standing on the ominous grey square.

You head towards the dead RAPACIOUS DOGIPEDE. Already, it is beginning to harden and firm up, like a stone, with the blood starting to get gooey and gelatinous.

Ew.

You huff some nonetheless. It is sharp and acrid in the way blood shouldn't be, and it makes your head swim. You take a big inhale, and then hold your breath until your vision starts to swim.

You let out a loud puff of breath. Everything is feeling FAR LESS REAL. You're not sure how much more MONSTER BLOOD you can huff without passing out though, and you don't feel super safe passing out here.

You regain 3 DP!

NOW WHAT?

>>3362387
Rip out the heroic, empowering, cursed sword from the Dogipede's corpse. It's right there, see?

No, that's not a spine, that's the pommel of the sword!

>>3362387
attempt to eat dogipede

>>3362387
Jump down into the pit with our mirror selves, they're us so we'll get along great. I mean there's obviously some trampolines down there or something, I mean who makes a hatch that just kills people?

You try to give it a tentative lick, but the smell is nauseating. You give up.

>>3362396
You pull the mighty CURSED BONESWORD from the slain RAPACIOUS DOGIPEDE'S corpse! You expend one DP in the process.

Apologies for the delays, I am a busy bean and making gifs is harder than I thought it would be.

>>3363132
Also, whoops, thread never updated because I was travelling between classrooms, I guess. If there's no other suggestions in a while, a trampoline it is.

>>3363538
Move the corpse a bit so that blood drips onto the trampoline before we jump in

>>3363564
The RAPACIOUS DOGIPEDE'S blood has all gelatinized! It doesn't appear to be going anywhere, at this point.

>>3364795
Spend a DP to make the thing under the blanket a scared FEMALE COMPANION

As it turns out, you do not need to spend DP. When you approach the shivering, shuddering blanket, and give it a careful pat patting, the person underneath shyly reveals HERSELF.

She introduces herself as STEPH, short for STEPHANIE. She woke up here about an hour ago, hiding under her blanket when a MAN WITH NO FACE appeared, cut some kind of weird hole in the wall, and then disappeared out of it.

That's probably your double.

STEPH sits on her butt and ties her blanket into a little cape. She asks if you'd like to travel with her, since you look a little tired and scared and could probably use the company.

She's also not sure really how to get out of here, and the fact that the MAN WITH NO FACE looked KIND OF LIKE YOU leads her to believe that there's some sort of connection.

WHAT SAY YOU?

>>3365503
>Sure

>>3365503
Accept STEPH's offer and join her.

>>3365503
Ask her if she can BELIEVE stuff into being real like we can.

>>3365503
she has a cape and you dont, thats not fair. We must not be outdone and outfashioned by this adorable little wretch. Use DP to create a bigger and better cape than her's and apoint yourself as the better fashion man

>>3365721
You can't use DP to manifest objects from nothing. You can only use it to REINTERPRET environmental objects, or to determine the unknown contents of some kind of external object or room!

>>3365722
Well, obviously mirror self carved a hole into the CAPE DIMENSION. We'll have to follow him in to obtain one.

>>3365503
Assure her that we definitely did NOT steal his face, and definitely are NOT a serial face thief.

You spend 1 DP into realizing that the door your MIRROR DUPLICATE wrenched open in the SPATIAL MEDIUM is, obviously, a door to the CAPE DIMENSION.

>>3365781
She believes you.

You exit the IDEA DOOR into the CAPE DIMENSION.

Huh. A little emptier than you thought a CAPE DIMENSION would be. But somehow, in your heart, you can tell this is somehow the CAPE DIMENSION.

Weird. At least the door is still there. You really don't actually remember what going through it felt like, but your brain tells you "Probably like an elevator, kind of.".

STEPH asks you what your plan is? The air is kind of thin up here but you dont feel like you're in any immediate danger.

>>3366215
Swing down into that window. Must be cape storage.

>>3366215
Is that our mirror clone I see in the background? How did he get over there?
>look around for how he got over there
he can rip off dogipede heads and cut holes through the void, how powerful is he? Did we create our own final boss?

STEPH doesn't seem to notice him, but it does indeed appear to be your MIRROR DUPLICATE. By the time you finish fumbling for words and point him out to STEPH, he's gone.

You do not see how he got over there.

>>3366227
You lower yourself onto the windowsill, and STEPH follows.

You enter a room that is not quite CAPE STORAGE. It's really just kind of a CAPE DISPLAY room. There's a pile of UNWASHED CAPES to your right, and two capes PINNED TO THE WALL to your left.

>>3367490
Take the BLUE CAPE. It's a royal color.

>>3367490
Wield the pins as weapons. The capes might still be alive.

>>3367490
Poke the pile of capes, make sure there's nothing under it

>>3367490

You take the BLUE CAPE. For some reason, wearing it restores 1 DP. Maybe it's because it's blue?

>>3367896
You already have the CURSED BONESWORD equipped, but you give STEPH the OVERSIZED BUTTERFLY PINS. She says thank you in a foreign language.

>>3367912
>>3368228
You poke the pile of capes with the flat of your sword, trying to make sure there's nothing under it that can attack you.

There does not appear to be anything in it that can attack you. It does, however, look COMFORTABLE. That is as much of a value judgment as you can draw.

Without BELIEVING that it is alive, it probably will remain dead, unless SOMEONE ELSE believes that it is alive.

>>3368297
Important note - You cannot both gain and spend DP in the same update unless you already had DP to spend, and, furthermore, you can only go below 0 DP in life-or-death situations, the consequences of which are... Dire! Ha ha ha ha ha ha

>>3368297
>BELIEVE that wearing a cape can make you able to fly at will (also applies to blanketcapes)

>>3368297
Stick your head in the pile of capes and sniff

>>3368326
Smells like... FABRIC.

>>3368334
CLEAN fabric? Or DOGGY DOO DOO fabric?

>>3368350
The FABRIC doesn't have any discernable CLEANLINESS or DIRTINESS quantity that can be ascertained by smell alone. Doesn't look dirty, either.

>>3368355
Tie all the red, yellow, and green capes into a rope. Look outside the window for things we could go or tie things to.

>>3368322
Did you see this one yet?

>>3368375
it uses a DP, so I assume he wanted to wait for other DP consuming options first.

>>3368382
Possibly

>>3368297
Take a very short nap in the cape pile

You are not sure about tying your CURSED BONESWORD to the end, namely because it seems incapable of leaving your body, but also that seems kind of dangerous! Nevertheless, you create a CAPE ROPE. Trust me, it's a lot longer than the bad graphic looks!

All I got in me tonight, so, sleep time, but thank you all very much for reading and participating so far! <3

>>3368812
Look outside, rappel down if need be.

It's totally fine to use your full weight on a length of blankets! Okay fine, double up the rope. There, now you have a few seconds of advance notice when the fabric rips and you fall to your doom!

>>3368812
It's time to fly through the cape dimension. No longer shall those long drops and far distances daunt us! Maybe we'll go check out the other door made by our mirror clone?

You do not need to use the ROPE because you can FLY!

Indeed, you have kind of noticed the other door far off in the distance, so you and STEPH go visit it! Travel is quick when you can BOTH FLY, something she only kind of questions, and your answer is something like "I thought we could, so I think we can,", and she seems to accept that.

You arrive safely, and your MIRROR DUPLICATE is nowhere to be found. This IDEA DOOR seems... Bigger. Jaggedy-er.

You have a bad feeling about this, somehow.
