Uncertainty washes over you as you clutch your head... and find it wrapped in... cloth? Bandages? You're not sure. Your vision is obscured, though between the slits you see the room is lit._\n\n_You don't remember your name._\n\n_Your senses catch up to you. Whatever you're laying on is reasonably comfortable, though if it's the surface or the excessive amount of clothes you're wearing, you can't quite make out. Whatever is covering your nose smells a little - you presume it smells of you. Alongside your muffled breathing you hear a dull hum._\n\n_Luckily, your body functions as it should. You sit up and with your bandaged fingers, widen the slits covering your eyes to absorb your new environment._\n\nThe **Apartment** is small and scarcely furnished. **Kitchen, living room and bedroom** are all merged into one unit. The bed you're on appears to be the room's couch. The pale light emanates from the **lamp** on the nearby **kitchen table** and a **lamp** stuck to the ceiling.\n\nThe dull hum emanates from a **r**** efrigerator **which alerts you that there is a** refrigerator **in the room. You spot an** oven **and a** sink. **There is a chair by the** small kitchen table **, on which rests** an envelope**.\n\nA **writing desk** occupies the space next to your bed-and-couch, sans chair, its surface bare. The desk has **two drawers** , one on each side.\n\nYou spot a minuscule **alcove** that you have just named **the entrance hallway**. You get up - which makes you dizzy - and find a **hatstand** keeping **two closed doors** company in the alcove ( **entrance hallway!** ). Next to the hatstand is **an unaddressed box**.\n\n_You stand alone in an unknown apartment. What do you do?_\n\n* * *\n\nWelcome to an interactive story by yours truly. As I have never done anything like this, I apologise in advance for any early installment weirdness that might occur. As we journey into the strange, however, it is my hope that we achieve a suitable level of consistency.\u0026nbsp;\n\n**HOW TO PLAY**\n\nComment below with suggested actions for\u0026nbsp;our hitherto unknown protagonist. I will then advance the story with said suggestions.\u0026nbsp;\n\n  \n  \n\n","series":{"name":"A Stranger in Suburbia","next":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/1145331-a-stranger-in-suburbia-an-interactive-story-prologue-2.json"}}
