boom, squared

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 75222

Horace reaches, and grabs two little candy looking red balls covered in plastic. 'Atomic Bombs' is the label, and they look just like those little red hots we all used to eat. The mysterious figure laughs behind him, the sound like a hundred tormented souls going to their death, and leaves the room as he says "That's what I like to see. Close the door after yourself, Horace. Be well."

Horace shudders, then shrugs and calmly unwraps the two little red balls. "Josh, no offense, but this is just too many of you." He then drops them in the hole and in one smooth movement, replaces the protective covers. There is a muffled 'BOOM' and then looking down there is just smoke and... blood. Lots of blood.

Horace calls in a cleanup and disambiguation crew, and then goes back up to his office. He gets in, and immediately sees the message light on his board lit up a soft amber. "Crap" he says, and checks his messages.*

* - only the high ups get to use his cell and pager. everyone else has to go through the normal Staircase Services hotline. This goes into a board that anyone can answer, but some go straight to Horace.

What is the message?

  1. "Horace, this is Scott. Um, the dragon is in the staircase room and, yeah, he is hogging the remote. Its getting kind of tight in here."
  2. "This is Mitchell from the library. Look, several of the sections of the library are manifesting strange vortexes again. "
  3. "This is Lisa from the Multiversal Mall. Your nexus-junction is not aligned, and we cannot connect. Act quickly, do not lose your connection to Nexus Prime."
  4. *soft, wet gurgling*
