>Point to your changed body parts and cheerfully tell White he'll be like you soon.

Carl points to his bunny ears and legs to show Dr. White that he'll transform too. He then worriedly turns to his friends and asks if any other parts of him have changed. They tell him no. Carl turns back to Dr. White, who doesn't look very reassured.


>Tell him that almost everyone here is very nice, but warn him about Mr. Shadow.
>Just...recap everything that's happened to us in a nutshell. That would be a good start. Then ask about how he got here.

Carl tells Dr. White not to be afraid, as all the nightmare creatures are friendly. He then corrects himself and starts talking about Mr. Shadow, until he decides to start from the beginning.

He tells Dr. White and Pinky everything, then asks Dr. White what he remembers before coming here.

Dr. White tells Carl that it started out as a normal night for him. He pauses for a bit to gather his thoughts, then says that the first thing he remembers after that was waking up in Gingerbread Town. Some sweet creatures found him and weren't sure what to do, so one of them, a reindeer named Chestnut, left to get help. Then Pinky showed up and offered to let him stay at her house until Chestnut came back.

I can't believe I created a scientist character and a character named Pinky without realizing my own reference.

>Ask Dr. White how long he's been here.

Dr. White says he hasn't been here long, only about 20 minutes or so.


>Does he know where Chestnut went? Or is that how we heard about him?

Neither Dr. White nor Pinky knows where Chestnut went.

"I don't think Queen Oneira ever heard from him while we were there. If he went to her castle, he must have taken the other path, through the towns." "Asssssuming, of courssse, that we would have even ssseen him in that big foressst we were in."

Anything else Carl should ask?

>Does Chestnut have any enemies? Anyone who would want Chestnut "out of the picture?"

"Of course not! We all get along fine in this town! I can't imagine anyone would-"

Suddenly, there is a rapid knocking at Pinky's door, along with a voice shouting "HELP! HELP!"

"That's Chestnut!" She runs out of the room to let him in. A few seconds later, she screams.

>RUN AFTER THEM HOLY SHIT GO GO GO
>YES HELP THEM

Carl and his friends waste no time in running to the front door. They see Pinky staring in horror as Mr. Shadow and Dumblob corner Chestnut. Mr. Shadow grabs Chestnut and starts choking him.

"   YOU THOUGHT YOU COULD RUN FROM US, YOU LITTLE RUNT? NOBODY'S SAFE FROM MR. SHADOW!!!   "

"Uh... Mr. Shadow?" Dumblob points at Carl and his friends. Mr. Shadow looks over at them and throws Chestnut face-first into the ground.

"   Fancy seeing you still alive. Well, guess what? Now that we've got your clocks, we don't need or want you anymore!   "

"   So what if ol' Oneira's tightened the security at her castle? We'll find a way through, and we'll get more clocks! But for now... Dumblob, how'd you like to say goodbye to these idiots once and for all?   "

"That sounds great. How will we do it?"

"   Our monster-creating powers are pretty cool. Let's see what happens when we combine our power!   "

Mr. Shadow and Dumblob's eyes start glowing, and so do Chestnut's. As Mr. Shadow and Dumblob move out of the way, Chestnut grows into a monster reindeer bigger than a 2-story building.

"   Just think, my friend. Not only are these losers gonna die, but think of how much destruction this guy could cause throughout all the dream lands! Boy, is the boss gonna be happy when he hears this!   "

Mr. Shadow and Dumblob run away, laughing.

Everyone in Gingerbread Town has come out to see what happened, and they're all cowering at the sight of Monster!Chestnut. The only one who doesn't look afraid is Pinky, who is giving a surprisingly intimidating glare. "We've got to stop this."

Is it bad that Mr. Shadow is my favorite character to write the dialogue for? XD

This is true.

>Before we worry about defeating/helping Chestnut, we need to see if we can lure the now-giant reindeer out and away from the town buildings so our probable battle won't do any damage.

>Ask if Chestnut is okay.

Carl asks Monster!Chestnut if he's okay. Monster!Chestnut bends over and roars in his face. It seems that the spell not only made Chestnut big and scary, but also brainwashed him. This is what happened to the turtle from earlier, but I guess it wasn't as clear considering that the turtle wasn't really sentient.

Time to try something else.


>Before we worry about defeating/helping Chestnut, we need to see if we can lure the now-giant reindeer out and away from the town buildings so our probable battle won't do any damage.

Good idea. Monster!Chestnut is starting to chase the heroes, so they run away from the town, into an area with nothing but a few trees.


>Use the rapiers to climb Chestnut's leg (by stabbing and climbing), and get on top. Look for a weak point like with the turtle.

Carl pulls out Loki and Set and digs them into Chestnut's leg to try and climb up it. Unfortunately, he doesn't get very far before Chestnut howls in pain and kicks him off. Bruno catches him.

"Are you okay? Climbing on top of him is a good idea, but we'll have to find another way to do it."

>Wait, let's try to take the pacifist route here. Ask Pinky if she knows any way to calm him.

Carl asks Pinky what Chestnut likes, in hopes that they can calm him down. "Let's see... well, he always liked snowball fights."

Carl makes a snowball and throws it at Chestnut. He stops and glares at Carl briefly before roaring again. Looks like he's too brainwashed for that. Time to Beat the Curse Out of Him!


>If not, use the trees to climb.

Carl starts climbing a tree. His friends run over to help boost him up. He then runs off a branch and jumps onto Chestnut's back. Chestnut tries to shake Carl off, but he manages to hold on.


>Is the nose red and glowing? If so, that's probably the weak point.

Indeed it is. How will Carl attack it?

>Hold on to the fur and crawl along the back and neck to the head. Keep going until wecan reach the nose(if there is fur in range, otherwise get as close as possible while still holding on), then stab it repeatedly with one rapier when the head is still, sheathing it and holding on when it thrashes

Carl manages to crawl across Chestnut's back and neck, and eventually makes it to the top of his head. Unfortunately, Chestnut realizes what Carl is going to do, and starts thrashing around much harder than Carl anticipated.

Carl is starting to lose his grip on Chestnut's head! What should he do?
