the funniest thing in the entire pirates of the caribbean series is definitely that one scene in At World’s End where they have parlay but davy jones is part of it, and rather than have him stand in the shallows or something they get a big bucket of water and have in stand on it on shore

who thought of that idea? who thought “put davy jones in a bucket of water” and had the guts to suggest it aloud? and then who went “hey that sounds like a great idea!”

at some point someone told davy jones their idea was for him to stand in a bucket of water and he agreed to it

Question time. One of your characters (you can choose, I'm not terribly picky) now has their own Parable experience, meaning that they are basically in their own Stanley Parable, named after them and everything. Whether or not they get the *ultra deluxe* experience is also up to you, and I'll have some optional questions for that case.

So, with that in mind...

What is your character's first ending? What endings would they probably miss on the first several run-throughs?

How do they react the first time they are reset?

I choose the Ultra Deluxe! Sorry this took so long lol:

John’s Parable would go on forever, cause that man HATES authority and would do the exact opposite of what The Narrator tells him every time. His first ending would be him activating the controls near the beginning of the game because he didn’t listen to The Narrator or pay any attention. When he gets reset he yells some very naughty words at The Narrator before starting again. (Also, John would 100% stand in the broom closet JUST to piss The Narrator off.)

John would probably miss most endings that requires him to do as told. He achieves the Out Of Map ending, the Museum ending, the Countdown ending, Powerful/Cold Feet ending, Vent ending, the Phone, Skip Button ending, and the Bottom Of The Mind Control Facility .

John would also spam the Jim button for as long as possible.

-

Blake’s Parable would ALSO go on forever, but not just because Blake wouldn’t follow directions. In fact, Blake would follow the directions, but only after he argues with The Narrator about every. Single. Thing. Because he (begrudgingly) follows directions Blake’s first ending is the Freedom ending.

“He had defeated the machine! Unshackled himself from someone elses control—“

“Um, you’re still controlling me. I know what you’re doing, stop ignoring me! I KNOW YOU CAN HEAR ME!”

Blake would miss the ending where he activates the controls, because he does turn the machine off as told after an hour of yelling about how The Narrator is controlling his life.

The first time Blake is reset he yells in frustration and begins again, all while mocking The Narrators voice.

Blake achieves the Zending ending, the Real Person ending, the Freedom ending, New Content ending, Skip Button ending, and the Sequel. He also gets the Whole Hole ending, because falling down the hole is fun.

-

BOTH men do actually feel a little bad for The Narrator about the whole “bad review” thing. Blake guiltily sits through The Narrators rambling for a little while, but John immediately uses the skip button, because he has no patience.

I hope this answered some of the questions!
