[ SEE GAME NAVIGATION TO READ UP ON HECK GAME BEFORE PLAYING IF YOU SO DESIRE ]

A) MAY I OFFER U PIE IN THIS TRYING TIME(GARDEN LEVEL)
[OOPS YOU DIED. WELCOME TO THE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL. If you're new here, have a sheep cherub or imp slap a "HI MY NAME IS--" sticker on you, and frantically explain "DON'T WORRY, WE'RE WORKING ON IT, WE'LL HAVE YOU OUT HERE....AT...SOME POINT..." Wack. Also, you may noticed that your body may or may not have changed. What's up with that??? Who cares, at least you have as spiffy new cell phone! You're also told you're free to take the elevators up to Heaven or down to Hell. Good luck!

In the mean time--join the garden party that's going on! Or at least, it seems like a party?? Except all they are serving is pie. Apple pie. Blueberry pie. The classics. For you more Carnivorous types, there's stuff like mince pie, and...the name is smudged, but maybe don't eat that one unless you're a cannibal.

But along with a variety of normal pies, if you accidentally eat a weird pie, your character might experience the following:
Vinegar Pie - It's tasty but suddenly you're compelled to blurt out an Insult or ruthlessly tease the next person you see.
"Sweet" Potato - If you're a normally grumpy or aggro character, this pie will suddenly make you want to be more affectionate! This can be anything from wanting to hold hands or saying genuine nice things.
Humble Pie - Suddenly you feel complimenting or praising others and might downplay your own achievements, or insult yourself.

You can probably shake off the effects, but hey. Free pie!! ]


B) LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE (HELL LEVEL)
[TIME TO EXPLORE. Today in the Hell Level, the Hotel (Ho-hell? Helll-tel? Okay just Hotel) it's time for spring cleaning! Wait, didn't they just have that? An Imp says yes, but this is a different type of cleaning. Time to TAKE OUT THE TRASH!!!!

Which is to say, out of no where you might receive a PUNCH in the face by a local, or an imp! If the latter it's like being bapped by a sick little lamb. Still, even if a local punches you, you suddenly heal immediately? That's right, TODAY ONLY, this is a 'get into a scrap injury free' spring holiday, and you can rough house as much as you want with each other today in the Hotel, and NO DAMAGE will remain! Ever wanted to get cut in half and suddenly stitch back together? WELL TODAY'S YOUR LUCKY DAY.

If you're not into PG rated guro however, why don't you try exploring:
-The clubs! The nightlife in hell is FANTASTIC and genuinely fun!
-Games! Along with casinos galore, there are also normal arcades! Any game you can imagine, it exists.
-Or explore parts of Hell's Hotel that don't involve getting into a dogpile! ]


C) MARCH COMES IN LIKE....(HEAVEN LEVEL)
[TODAY IN HEAVEN THOUGH, there are advertisements for the ZOO!! A zoo in heaven?? Fuck yea!! But when you get there you see nothing but...........lions. And lambs. Just, everywhere. They aren't fighting though, but being super cute and soft and have tiny wings. You can pet them and pick them up--well the lambs at least. The lion might crush you. But you're dead anyway so give it a shot champ!!

Local angels explain that every 'spring' the zoo does this, and it's a sign of good fortune! You might wonder why you need good fortune in Heaven, but fuck it, when it Rome!! If you stick around long enough the zoo will change back to 'normal' and you can find other animals to gawk at.

If zoos aren't your thing though, check out heaven's:
-BEACH!! How is there an ocean and sandy white beach in the sky! Who cares, it's heaven! Beach episode time!
-Coffee shops! There are no coffee shops in hell! LIVE YOUR COFFEE AU DREAMS.
-Or just explore the Heavenly hotel in general!]

[Curiously, Greed watches with a bit of comical awe as the angel just. Lifts his hand above his head, plucks the halo down, and pockets it like a ornament.] Huh? Ha - ! [A billowing laugh slips out from between his teeth, making it whistle along their sharp points.] Now, that is a neat trick! Didn't think you could do that.

[The former homunculus slouches forward to try to inspect the handy work.] But there's really no such thing as no such thing. I shouldn't be so surprised.

[Ah, and BJ's asking the right questions, isn't he? Greed shifts his weight back onto his heels to balance on their sharper, square-cut edges.] Depends on what you think's fun. This place - [He thumbs behind him with one of his four arms.] - it isn't a bad one to start with. But if you can wait it out a while, I've got a place opening up soon. [He shifts forward again to slap his boots atop the concrete.]

But first thing's first - what is it you're looking for?

[bugbeverage]

Oh, you know... [ He holds up fingers as he counts aloud. ] Sex, drugs, sex while on drugs, good music, good food...I wanna live it up! You know--for a dead guy.

[ At the mention of Greed's soon to be den of sin, his eyes sparkle a little. ]

Oh yeah? How soon is soon? I'm itchin' for some action here.

[nestingdevil]

[There's something cat-like, predatory, about him as he watches BJ count off his list. Some like raindrops on roses, whiskers on kittens.]

[But others, like him and this fellow, well - ]

[Greed's tail drifts behind him, causing the spikes at the end to tip and tap as they shift in place.] Ha - ! Now, that's the right attitude. I'm liking you better and better, BJ.

Unfortunately, it won't be 'till next month. But there's another club nearby that'll probably have more seats available if you're interested.

[bugbeverage]

[ BJ's wings sag a little in disappointment. A month is so long! His mood instantly picks up when Greed mentions that he Knows A Place. He already trusts this guy, he sees himself in him. Also he's hot so that helps. ]

Would you look at that--my schedule just opened up! Lead the way, pal!

[nestingdevil]

[A whistle slices across the Sin's teeth as he swings around the other man, his tail following in a whipping glide.]

Figured you'd be interested. C'mon then - [Greed slides out of line towards the other side of the street.] - it won't be as fancy as this place, but don't let that fool you.

[bugbeverage]

[ Beetlejuice eagerly follows after Greed with the toes of his boots hovering just above the concrete as he hovered with his little wings. ]

Oh, don't you worry about that! If it's aesthetics you're worried about, I can lend a hand. I might not look like it but I really know how to make a haunted house into a haunted home!

[nestingdevil]

[There's a cheeky look to his grin while he leads Beetlejuice down the street.] Do you now? What, are you some kind of spirit or something? [Because that would be different, wouldn't it?]

[Greed kicks aside an empty bottle as he slides up and onto the sidewalk.] It's nothing like that, though. The crowd at this other place is just a little bit tougher. Don't hold it against 'em.
