HOTEL LEX - FLOOR 2 (8/?)

Added 2025-10-06 05:21:04 +0000 UTC

If there is a path beyond the water, you might as well not get yourself wet. You inch towards the side of the pool, the pooltoys almost eyeing you as you walk towards the wet floor sign. With your towel clutched in your hand, you step around the giant puddles of... upon slightly closer inspection, it appears to not be water. Whatever it is, you don't feel the need to step into it. A few feet into your treacherous journey, you hit a snag. A giant puddle lies before you and without some sort of maneuver, you wouldn't be able to keep your paws dry.

Just then, the water starts to ripple. A shadowy silhouette appears just beneath the surface. It swims around in laps before heading towards the steps up out of the pool. An aquatic looking creature pops out of the murky depths, the waves pushing the collection of pooltoys back. Its skin shines in the pale lighting as it steps out and stretches. It... he's.. naked. A sleek otter stands much shorter than you. He shakes off the water off himself and seems to relax. You freeze in place, hopping you wouldn't alert the creature but as it turns around, you both lock eyes. At first you both just stare, but then a flash of a smile appears on the otter as he lowers himself onto all fours and bounds at you at top speed.

> Try to fight off the creature.

> Run for the exit.
