Maybe he's still hungry.
"Eat soup"
I know, not physically possible. Let's see what happens.

Eat soup Wrote:Our hero enjoys a long slurp of soup.
Abruptly, the surface of the liquid is broken by a pulse of circular ripples, forming and dissolving as if rocked by some tiny tremor of the earth. Our hero looks up sharply, but the crowds have register nothing unusual.
Well, damn.

Info, >For your amusement' Wrote:Have you tried the following:
panicking?
I think this basically tells us how to get Easter Eggs.

Die Wrote:Are you sure you want to quit?
I said no, and I saved beforehand. You're not escaping this easily.
Let's Play "Downtown Tokyo, Present Day" - Bacon - 2009-07-10
No one else noticing the ripples? Time to start....
"Panicking"

panick(ing) Wrote:That's not a verb I recognise.
That's... odd? Mabye something more needs to happen first?
jump Wrote:[A fat elbow prods you in the ribs. "Hey, quit fidgeting!"]
Suddenly the table jerks, upsetting a bottle of soy sauce and sending it rolling over the edge. The crowd pauses for a moment, then moves on.
Guess I can't use those brackets for notes anymore. I'll use {} for now. And I guess we jumped as the viewer? And then passing time made the table jerk? That's my guess.
Oh. Tried this for you. Silly me.
panic Wrote:That's not something a true hero would do.
This time the quake is obvious, and accompanied by a dull rumble. Abandoning his newspaper and soup, our man joins the hesitant crowd for a better look up the street.
More time passing.

Rescue lost boy Wrote:That's not a verb I recognise.
...Okay, then?
Let's Play "Downtown Tokyo, Present Day" - Bacon - 2009-07-10
Well, I meant to "Panic" but the hint suggesting that I was to begin "Panicking".
Anyway, giant Earthquake? Is it Magus' Cthulhu? Godzilla perhaps? After all, it is Tokyo. Let's take a look see shall we?
"Examine the sky"
Let's Play "Downtown Tokyo, Present Day" - xBTAx - 2009-07-10
Examine (the) sky, along with various other variations Wrote:You can't see any such thing.
OR
That doesn't seem to be important in the current scene.
...Hmm. No idea.
Let's Play "Downtown Tokyo, Present Day" - Bacon - 2009-07-10
Fine, I guess we'll do what the game suggests.
"Look up street"
You might want to try a few variations of this.
Let's Play "Downtown Tokyo, Present Day" - xBTAx - 2009-07-10
Look up (street) Wrote:What do you want to look up in?
Spandex.
(I don't think this is a question, by the way. I'm pretty sure it's asking us to rephrase what we said, but I don't know what it wants.)
Let's Play "Downtown Tokyo, Present Day" - Bacon - 2009-07-10
Tricky, tricky game. Let's see now...
"Talks with crowd"
Let's see if our hero is antisocial or not.
Let's Play "Downtown Tokyo, Present Day" - xBTAx - 2009-07-10
Several attempts to talk to or poke the crowd Wrote:Various error messages.
The ground shakes again, with the sound of crumbling masonry. Heads lift, necks twist, and all eyes come to rest at the end of the street. Now the screaming starts.
What was a grand hotel just seconds before is now a pile of twisted rubble, surmounted by a huge and scaly foot!
...I'm thinking the prologue is just "try crap and watch as you die".

>throw rocks at movie screen
>Walk out of theater
Let's Play "Downtown Tokyo, Present Day" - Bacon - 2009-07-10
Haha! I know it was Godzilla.
"Run away from monster"
Edit: Hm, but apparently Acev knows how to deal with these monsters.
Let's Play "Downtown Tokyo, Present Day" - xBTAx - 2009-07-10
Various things, but throw popcorn was the only one that worked Wrote:[A barrage of stony glances shoot your way. The teenagers in the back row snigger.]
A deathly hush has descended. All eyes are drawn towards the monstrous foot atop the ruins of a nearby building.
Attempts to walk out Wrote:{Errors}
The crowd stands frozen, immobile before the huge taloned foot.
Run away Wrote:That's not something a true hero would do.
[A podgy elbow digs you in the ribs: "Hey get a load of those special effects! That foot is awesome!". A pair of sniggers erupt from the back row.]
Sounds like someone has a fetish.
