The Story of Us

"This is the story about a group of moderately plucky people.

They existed in a gigantic building, where they went every day to work.

It could hardly even be called work. It simply involved a lot of talking with others. 

Making the platform bigger.

And this is what they did, every day of every month of every year. Although others might have considered it mind-numbing,

They enjoyed every moment of it. It was almost as though they were made for the job.

And so, they were happy.

And then one day, something peculiar happened.

Something that they would never forget.

It had been over an hour, and not a single person anywhere had said a single word. No new posts had trickled in on the computer screen.

No one complaining, or complimenting, or even mentioning any games they might have played recently. Never, in all the years at the company, had this happened. This complete isolation.

Something was obviously wrong. Shocked, frozen solid, they found themselves unable to move for the longest time.

But at last, as they pulled themselves together, each got up from their own desk and regained their composure."

I tell you what's happening. You say what you want to do.

It's easy to describe it as such.

Oh-kay. First, do you identify as male or female? Definitely not referencing anything at all.

hitthepin

OK. You spawn in an office. Do you stay in there or walk out the door. VERY IMPORTANT DECISION.

Walks out.

Feeling very adventurous, are we? You come into a somewhat open space filled with cubicles. A door opposite to you is open and leads to a hallway. Other doors around you are closed. Where do you go?
