Ruby Quest Chapter 5 Chapter 5 Tom is
Ruby Quest: Chapter 5
Chapter 5 Tom is free from his cell, but both he and Ruby are still stuck in an unfamiliar place. Please recommend an action.
Chapter 5 Both go up ladder? Hot, sweaty, terrified sex to comfort each other in this horrifying place
Chapter 5 >Both go up ladder? Tom and Ruby both go back up to the room Ruby woke up in. >Hot, sweaty, terrified sex to comfort each other in this horrifying place Ruby is far too shy to do something like that with a stranger, especially in this situation, especially with the fact there could be hidden cameras watching. It's not the kind of thing she'd want to have someone get on tape. Besides, there are more pressing matters right now!
Chapter 5 Ask Tom what he has in his pockets. check for cameras, get really drunk, then have sex Inspect the fishtank?
Chapter 5 >Ask Tom what he has in his pockets. Tom is carrying the canopener Ruby found, as well as a tap and one unopened condom. >check for cameras, get really drunk, then have sex There are no cameras visible here, but Ruby is still too self-conscious to ignore the possibility they might just be hidden. Also, there's no alcohol around! >Inspect the fishtank? A few large fish-shaped shadows move through the murky water beyond the large porthole. It's hard to see much of anything through it.
Chapter 5 Ask the bugger if he knows what this place is, and why he was imprisoned. ask him to demonstrate his MANLY PHYSIQUE by pushing the barrel over to the side to see what's under it.
Chapter 5 >Ask the bugger if he knows what this place is, and why he was imprisoned. Tom already explained he woke up in his cell downstairs, and doesn't know what this place is. >ask him to demonstrate his MANLY PHYSIQUE by pushing the barrel over to the side to see what's under it. No problem for a strong man like Tom!
Chapter 5 INSPECT CUBBY HOLE
Chapter 5 >INSPECT CUBBY HOLE The small recess in the wall doesn't lead anywhere. However, there is yet another ACCESS CARD inside. Tom pockets it.
Chapter 5 Also - ask Tom w-why he has a. . . condom. . . After we inspect the new niche, we pull the lever.
Chapter 5 >Also - ask Tom w-why he has a. . . condom. . . Tom says he doesn't know. He just woke up with it in his pockets. He doesn't remember carrying it. >After we inspect the new niche, we pull the lever. Tom and Ruby head back down the access hatch. The lever is rather high. It's possible that even the two of them together won't be able to reach it.
Chapter 5 have Tom PUSH BARREL down the open, ladderless hatch
Chapter 5 >have Tom PUSH BARREL down the open, ladderless hatch Look out below.
Chapter 5 Tom flip the barrel over so that the open end is on the floor. Ruby climbs onto the barrel, Tom climbs onto Ruby , and Tom pulls the lever.
Chapter 5 >Tom flip the barrel over so that the open end is on the floor. Ruby climbs onto the barrel, Tom climbs onto Ruby , and Tom pulls the lever. Tom flips over the barrel. But Ruby realizes that with her girlish figure she'd never be able to lift Tom.
Chapter 5 I guess Ruby will have to get on Tom's shoulder's then. Tell Tom no peeking.
Chapter 5 >I guess Ruby will have to get on Tom's shoulder's then. Tell Tom no peeking. Tom obligingly lifts Ruby up with some effort, and they balance precariously on the dented barrel. Ruby reaches for the pullswitch.
Chapter 5 Ruby yanks the pullswitch down with determined force. Something upstairs gives a low, ominous rumble that echoes through the walls.
Chapter 5 The pullswitch cord suddenly snaps up into the ceiling. The noise has stopped.
Chapter 5 Go back up and see what that noise was.
Chapter 5 >Go back up and see what that noise was. Upon climbing back up the access hatch, the change seems immediately obvious.
Chapter 5 Step through carefully into the darkness.
Chapter 5 >Step through carefully into the darkness. Ruby decides they should both simultaneously step blindly into the darkness beyond the doorway.
Chapter 5 As they enter the room, the lights suddenly turn on. Luckily for them, there appears to be no danger here. There is a sealed door to the west, with a padlock.
Chapter 5 Check the console. If it's inoperable, we should try the card in that slot.
Chapter 5 >Check the console. If it's inoperable, we should try the card in that slot. Tom slips the card into the slot, where it disappears with a click. However, there's no response from the console whatsoever. It's not even turning on.
Chapter 5 are we standing on a trap door? So, is that the door we came in by at the bottom of the screen? inspect the strange hook like thing on the wall
Chapter 5 >are we standing on a trap door? No, but there's a rectangular imprint here, as if something used to be here. >So, is that the door we came in by at the bottom of the screen? Yes. >inspect the strange hook like thing on the wall There's some sort of raised rectangle on the wall which prominently features some strange marking. At the bottom of the marking, where the lines meet, there's a cross-shaped indentation.
Chapter 5 lets check that box thing in the corner, maybe it opened that? What is that thing on top of that locker to the right?
Chapter 5 >lets check that box thing in the corner, maybe it opened that? The box doesn't appear locked, but around the latch it's been sealed shut with what looks like glue or calk. >What is that thing on top of that locker to the right? Some kind of disc lies on top of the locker. It features an image of an eye and has a single protrusion.
Chapter 5 Poke it now. In the eye.
Chapter 5 >Poke it now. In the eye. Tom gives Ruby a strange look as she pokes the eye. It feels like wood, and doesn't react in any way.
Chapter 5 Take the disc. use tiny key on lock Go back to the Z hatch room and grab the letter opener so we can pry open the chest.
Chapter 5 >Take the disc. Ruby grabs and pockets the wooden disc. >use tiny key on lock The tiny key (from the TREASURE BOX) has already been used up. >Go back to the Z hatch room and grab the letter opener so we can pry open the chest. Ruby heads back to the room beyond the Z-hatch.
Chapter 5 Inspect the eye to see what happened to the letter opener. Also compare the eye ruby is carrying to the bloody eye on the wall.
Chapter 5 >Inspect the eye to see what happened to the letter opener. Also compare the eye ruby is carrying to the bloody eye on the wall. Dark red stains have trailed down from the eye. The letter opener is gone. The eyes are similar in that they are both eyes, but they're not particularly distinctive and they're obviously not the same size.
Chapter 5 Ruby should take a closer look at that pipe. Is the blue stripe painted on, or is that a window to the interior?
Chapter 5 >Ruby should take a closer look at that pipe. Is the blue stripe painted on, or is that a window to the interior? Upon close inspection, the pipe running from the ceiling to the east wall is painted with a blue stripe, probably for identification purposes.
Chapter 5 What do things look like in the Zombie closet now? Inspect the Wall Safe
Chapter 5 >What do things look like in the Zombie closet now? Nothing's changed. It's still a rather bare and bloody closet. >Inspect the Wall Safe Nothing new there either. Still locked, the cabinet refuses to budge.
Chapter 5 Also call down Tom to see if you can work together to force open the wall safe.
Chapter 5 There doesn't appear to be any way the disc can work on the safe. Further, the circular symbol on the safe is not a recess, it's simply painted on. >Also call down Tom to see if you can work together to force open the wall safe. Ruby returns upstairs to get Tom to come down with her.
Chapter 5 Ruby and Tom return to the room. Tom doesn't look so well. Ruby realizes Tom hasn't seen this room yet.
Chapter 5 move couch
Chapter 5 >move couch Ruby politely asks Tom to move the couch. With his MANLY PHYSIQUE, the task is no problem, and the wide couch slides away from the wall, revealing a small access hatch even smaller than the Z-Hatch used to enter this room. It appears to open into a lit room on the other side.
Chapter 5 Carefully peak into other room. CAREFULLY.
Chapter 5 >Carefully peak into other room. CAREFULLY. Ruby kneels down to see that the room beyond has bare metal walls and exposed pipes and circuitry, and is probably some sort of maintenance area. There don't appear to be any immediate dangers like people, fire, or big, obvious traps. Due to the size of the hatch, however, only Ruby, with her GIRLISH FIGURE would be able to squeeze through. Tom would have to stay behind somewhere.
Chapter 5 Get out the can opener for self-defense Crawl through the hatch and have Tom wait back in his cell where he won't be at risk of being driven insane by the blood.
Chapter 5 >Get out the can opener for self-defense Ruby requests the canopener back from Tom, who returns it. >Crawl through the hatch and have Tom wait back in his cell where he won't be at risk of being driven insane by the blood. Tom agrees to wait where you found him, rather than in the bloody room. Ruby crawls through. Ruby emerges in the new room, which does indeed appear to be a maintenance room. Piping is everywhere. A glass tube runs to the ceiling, and the east wall features a vent and a circuitboard. The blue pipe runs through here.
Chapter 5 have Ruby wave at the person looking at her.
Chapter 5 >have Ruby wave at the person looking at her. There's no one in the room but Ruby.
Chapter 5 Inspect everything.
Chapter 5 >Inspect everything. There's a circuitboard on the east wall. It appears to be missing a square component, but no wires are damaged. Above it is a closed vent. There's a device containing purple liquid, with a sort of pluglike hole set it in, and beneath that, drips of purple. There's no visible faucet to remove the liquid. There's what appears to be a pneumatic tube running through the ceiling with a small compartment here. There's a metal transfer compartment in the wall, like a bank deposit drawer. There's a strange device near the west wall with an LED readout that says "sample", but has no obvious buttons, controls, or instructions beyond that.
Chapter 5 Recheck Inventory Get a cup from the water cooler and get some of that PURPLE DRANK there
Chapter 5 >Recheck Inventory Ruby is carrying two coins, rubber gloves, a button diagram, a ball of string, and a canopener. >Get a cup from the water cooler and get some of that PURPLE DRANK there There are no cups here, and even if there were, there's no faucet on the front of the liquid's container, just a socket.
