concert SHRUNK MODE

You and a group of your best friends are arriving at Coachella 2020, which despite the health risks of COVID-19, is still opening to widespread success (ignoring federal regulation and common sense). All your favorite artists are here and you've been waiting for this moment for months -- you'll take the virus if that's what it has to come to!!! -[[Enter festival->Drug]]

After passing through security, your group of friends stops walking. What's the hold up!??! People are performing, and we paid a lot of money! Let's get out there! You look closer, and see that your friends are splitting up some type of drug that this dude Rodney bought. You've never done drugs, and are no expert, but this stuff definitely looks pretty...unusual. It looks like...an almost liquid, red substance encased in a translucent capsule? Oh shit they are offering you some -[[I trust my friends, and they're all doing it. Why not?->drugged]] -[[Don't they know any better? I'll pass.->sober]]

GULP . .. ... .... ..... .......What am i thinking?!?! Rodney doesn't have my best interests at heart that dude is a complete junkie!!! Why is he even here with us I barely know that dude!!! What did I just swallow!!! -[[I'm probably just overthinking it->concert1]] -[[I don't feel good about this... I'm gonna take a walk->waterstation]]

All the power to your friends, but you know you'll have a blast at this festival without any inebriation, ESPECIALLY from a drug that is completely unfamiliar and foreign to you. [[Let's get to the shows!!!->concert2]]

You swallow your fear, and your friends move into a nearby crowd. You've forgotten about the drug, and are having the time of your life in an atmosphere you've been daydreaming about for months. The music's great, you've got a smile on your face, this was worth the $500 entry fee forsure. That's only until...things start to get weird. You're feeling really nauseous, seeing stars, and the music is sounding way more muffled. You're not characteristically tall, but you definitely remember being able to see what was going on up at the stage. Did taller people surround you? What dicks! No, that's not it. Things are getting weirder and weirder. They definitely can't be tall enough that you stand at their knee level. Or... their shoe level? -[[I've shrunk!!->shrunk2]]

You make your way through the crowds and toward a water station, planning on filling up your waterbottle, taking some deep breaths and recollecting yourself before meeting back up with your friends. The water feels like its helping your nausea... until...things start to get weird. You're seeing stars, and the white noise of people around you starts to sound more muffled. You're not a characteristically tall person, but you definitely were tall enough to reach the water bottle filler a minute ago, and now you cant. Things are getting weirder and weirder. You can't even see the water bottle filler anymore. You can't even really see anything the same way anymore... [[You've shrunk!->shrunk1]]

WHAT just happened? What kind of drug did your friends split with you, and why did you not think to maybe ASK what it would do to you?!? Now your entire body mass adds up to about 1.75 inches of height and you're in the middle of a crowded water station. This is gonna be a tough one to figure out... -[[Panic and call your mom, she always knows what to do->mom]] -[[Search for your friends, they'll know whats up with this drug->squad]] -[[Head to the medical tent. There are professionals there that are used to handling people on weird drugs at things like this.->tent]]

Alright WHAT did I ingest?!? What was i thinking? Those D.A.R.E campaigns were no joke. You currently stand at about 1.75 inches tall. You look around and immediately spot seven other miniscule people, they're not hard to spot when they're THE ONLY OTHER ONES STANDING LOWER THAN SHOELACES. Everyone else, like you, is freaking out. None of you do drugs, and none of you really knew what to expect, but you all just said fuck it and dropped an unidentified substance down the hatch. Not one of you expected this, though. Not one of you, except Rodney... who is posted up chilling. He knew he'd end up being less than 2 inches tall, he's the one that brought the drug. -[[I need to get my friends together and figure something out here.->plan]] -[[Why would Rodney not mention this would happen?!? Let's beat his ass->ape]]

Man, why is the phone service at these things so horrible?! Do they NOT want me calling me mom mid festival? It takes a minute, but she answers... "What do you mean you're 2 inches tall? Have you been smoking pot kiddo?!? You are clearly not in your right mind!" [[PLEASE JUST COME GET ME MOM->leave festival]]

Alright, my idiot friends will at least know what we've gotten ourselves into. Finding them is a good idea...But how will I do that? [[Climb up a normal person for leverage]] [[run into the fray]]

Finding your moms car in the festival ground parking lot as a 2 inch tall person is one of the most tedious things you've ever done, but eventually you spot her car. Albeit immensely shocked, she recognizes you and beelines to the emergency room. -[[Aw cmon...->ER]]

Everyone, like you, is freaking out. Good on you for stepping up and taking charge. After getting everyone to take a deep breath, you collectively decide the safest bet for the squad will be to get up on somebody's shoe and work from there -- at least you'll be out of the immediate danger of being stepped on. [[safe for now->toes]]

You start decking Rodney and given the state of chaos and emotional turmoil, your friends are pretty quick to join in. Everyone goes monkey mode on Rodney till he's knocked out, beat and bruised, less than 2 inches tall and slumped in some grass. [[Glad we handled that piece of shit->squashed]]

You run up to the nearest pair of shoes you see and begin the trek up. You're definitely not in shape to be climbing what is, proportionately to you, a one hundred foot wall, but fueled on adrenaline you make your way up. Standing on this giant's shoulder, you have a better view... but they've spotted you! Upon noticing you, the person jumps in shock and immediately passes out, landing on the floor with you in tow. [[Wait.. i recognize this passed-out individual...->uzi]]

You've decided to just risk it all and run straight into the crowd, a bold decision for someone not even reaching the 2 inch height mark. Luckily for you, it pays off -- you spot the only other 2 inch tall people. They've all climbed up on somebody's shoe. By the looks of it, they're pretty freaked out and trying to stay off the ground level as to avoid being squished. You hustle over and join them. [[My friends!!!->toes]]

Alright, we have seven heads up on somebody's Reebok club classic. Safe for the time being...But depending on what song is coming up, this massive person could start jumping any second. -[[We gotta move away from the crowd->squashed]] -[[lets just send it inward->stage]]

The only person short enough for a 2 inch person to have climbed up is none other than Lil Uzi Vert himself, standing at 5 feet and 4 inches tall (6'6 if he's on his money). [[his mob of groupies rush him (with you on board) backstage->backstage]]

Uzi comes to, conscious again. you explain what happened and he is fascinated with you as he has done a lot of drugs but never one that shrinks you. Intrigued, he asks you to come out and perform with him [[Thats gonna have to be a "Yes Sir!!!!!"]] [[No thanks i'm not an Uzi fan. Also i'm inches tall don't know where my friends are and am freaking out.]]

This is the time of your life. Your miniscule mouth shouts every word of Money Longer while standing on Uzi's rolling shoulder in front of a crowd of tens of thousands. [[your friends see you!->reunited]]

You never really liked all that "mumble rap" and you don't want to make a fool of yourself on stage. You're sure you're not missing out on the experience of a lifetime. [[His groupies call you an ambulance and escort you out->ER]]

After spending hours in the emergency room the drug wears off. Your mom asks what the hell kind of drugs you kids are taking these days, and lets you know you're never leaving the house again. THE END

After spending a night raging with Lil Uzi Vert who is fascinated by people even tinier than himself the drug wears off, everyone is healthy and goes home happy. THE END (this is the best ending, congratulations. All the other ones are pretty sad)

You and your friends spend about thirty minutes having a blast at one of your favorite concerts of all time packed in a massive crowd of people. Then, something unimaginable happens... You watch your friends shrink. Gradually, they drop down to middle schooler size, child size, toddler, infant, until stabilizing out at around... 2 inches tall. You are in absolute disbelief. You think you are hallucinating. Until you remember they all took a drug that none of you quite knew any details about. And now they seem terrified. -[[They can figure it out themselves!->selfish]] -[[I guess i'll have to take care of them->selfless]]

Your friends took drugs and will just have to suffer the consequences. You were responsible, and paid a lot of money to be here, so whats wrong with wanting the enjoy the festival?!? You have a great time, albeit lonely, and get picked up at the end of the festival sober and healthy. Your friends all died tho. THE END

You scoop up your miniature friends, hold them up to your face and scold them relentlessly for their recklessness. Great going guys, my festival experience is ruined because you wanted to mess around with drugs. [[Lets get out of here->ER]]

It takes a huge effort, but you all manage to slink around over people's shoes and end up right at the stage. Stage security spots you all and thinks HE must be on some kind of drug. [["You don't see that every day..."->security]]

He doesn't really know what to do with you, but you were clearly trying to sneak onto the stage, which won't fly with him. He scoops up you and your friends in his left hand and drops you off outside the festival gates like you're little spiders. [[Well, why end the night here?->send]] [[Let's just play it safe... we gotta figure this out.->ER]]

You and your friends spend a couple hours messing around and causing mischief until the drug wears off. Everyone goes home safe and healthy, with a STRANGE story, and nobody trusts Rodney or his drugdealer ever again. THE END

Everyone gets squashed by a giant foot. You and your friends are dead. Maybe do a hair of research about the drugs you decide to take. THE END

You make your way to the medical tent. It takes them a while to notice you're even there, but when they finally do, they seem to be familiar with what has happened to you. "Oh, it's that shrinking agent..Yeah, I read about it being tested on rodents in Switzerland. Never thought a human being would think to use it on themselves, but I guess you can't put anything past these teenagers." They let you know you should be fine, but that taking a mysterious drug without any research was not a wise decision. They don't really have the space to deal with you further than that, so they call you an ambulance. [[What was I even thinking...->ER]]
