Another CYOA (Choose your own adventure) for my fellow Hexbears.
Pick one option.
I probably would choose the Diner. Since free and good food sounds amazing.
Library or forest
I’m moving into the Loft. If the magical door is always four left turns away, then it should be there even if I travel across the country, right? Traveling all around and always having my house nearby sounds pretty cool.
Holy shit, you’re right. Also being able to move without actually needing to save for deposit and rent. Like, you could do trial runs of living in different cities / states. Also harder for a country to tell you’ve illegally moved there. I choose this one too, as long as my cat is able to stay in the loft when my partner or I aren’t there.
Loft: free housing and utilities; no clear downsides
Diner: infinite free food; no clear downsides
Hotel: free temporary housing; unclear limitations on length of stay; implied risk of Shining-style shenanigans from guests
Shop: scope of shop stock and allowable “purchases” unclear; potentially infinite garbage
Forest: infinite free food; guaranteed restful sleep; time freezing outside while passing inside presumably causes you to age and die at least 33% faster relative to those outside if you sleep there every night
Library: access to knowledge in “known universe” presumably limits scope to things that a human of earth already knows; learning requires unassisted research; similar temporal risks to forest coupled with explicit risk of being lost in extra-planar space.
I love these, they’re always a good pastime.
I choose the library. I’d have to tie a length of string at the entrance in an attempt to keep my bearings.
The loft :3
