> find out if you can jump off the train while it's in motion
Alright, even for you that’s ridiculous. The doors are sealed up from the outside — there’s no way you’re getting off of this thing until it makes a stop somewhere.
> hijack the subway train
You briefly consider whether or not that weird thing you do with your eyes is capable of making the train change its course, and you shut them for a moment. You think, and think, and start to tremble a little bit as you make an effort to bring it out...
But you open your eyes, and everything is still as it was before. Crud.
> ask a person where this train is going to stop.
You turn to one of the nearby passengers, a lady locked into page 43 of a book about witches, and ask about the train’s course.
“The next stop’s Alderney Street, dude. Listen to the announcements, you might learn something,” she says, still keeping her gaze on the novel.
> Admire the scenery
You peek out of the window behind you to take a look at the city beyond. Across from the curve of the train tracks, there’s a river with rays of the sun above reflecting across it, with the skyscrapers along the coast cascading upward, downward and upward again, a horizon full of pillars of steel and glass.
The brightness of it and the cyan skies feel warm, compared to the vague navy clouds dominating the skies of the world outside the dream. You can’t help but feel a bit better after letting the light hit you, even if it makes you blind.
> Go full-on Einstein and ask "does the train stop at station or the stations stop at the train?" out loud to nobody in particular.
You do just that, and the girl next to you finally turns toward you. “Wow. So deep.”
You’re still proud of your philosophical thought despite the underwhelming reception. Just as you say it, the speakers in the ceiling make the announcement, “Now arriving at Alderney Street,” and some of the passengers begin shuffling their way toward the doors. You make your way through them as well, and take a set of stairs down to the station’s exit. Across the street outside, you spot a familiar sight from another angle: a set of dumpsters, and beyond them, a park with a field filled with dandelions.
As you jaywalk to the other side, you even spot a guy with a familiar hi-top fade, sitting at the base of a tree with an iPad in his lap and a speaker next to him, playing an odd set of beats
. He appears to be pantomiming a DJ set along to it, bobbing and weaving with his hands making pointing motions.

Sorry for the wait on the update! I've been looking for a proper job recently, my blogging project is also A Thing, and it was my sister's birthday earlier this week. I don't know if I'm gonna do updates quite as often as when we first started but we're in this together now. Thanks for sticking with me and Felix. Now, back to the show...

Your mind suddenly can't help but go into a bunch of places at once when the tune hits your ears, and joining in with the familiar fellow, you start gesticulating along as well.
With a blue tint, a duplicate of the speaker plops out from the tree and into your lap. It's playing a K-pop cover of an old hip-hop one hit wonder. There's some more rustling in the trees, and another speaker lands next to you, playing a bombastic tune that wouldn't be out of place in an energetic video game. One more speaker rustles through the leaves falls and hits the fellow on his head, playing the same song as before but about a minute out of sync. It's all rather cacophonic, but somehow, you're able to vibe with it... until you see the look on his face.
> Right, stop that! That's silly!
"What the hell, dude?!"
A trail of static crackles through the blue speakers and they each pop out of sight, leaving only the original, next to the iPad guy.
"I just wanted to—"
"To ruin a simple moment of joy. Don't worry, you got what you wanted."
Oh jeez. You try to think of how to help make things better, and remember that this is a dream...
> Buy a blue parrot
... so you hold your left arm out and whistle, in an attempt to attract any nearby birds, hoping to catch the attention of an azure-feathered avian for thematic reasons.
A pigeon ends up landing on your shoulder instead. It pecks at one of your antennae.
You try to lift it up with your other hand but it continues to peck at your arm, and out of frustration you just turn to iPad Guy and let him take it. Stupid thing.
> oh, and a chair too
"I'm sorry. Peace offering?" As you say it, a pair of folding chairs — with that telltale blue glow — appear in front of you.
He's petting the pigeon and not paying you any mind. Understandable.
> Put chair next to ipad guy, sit in chair.
As you take your seat, you look up to the sky beyond the tree, and notice a round-headed, tentacled being emerging from the clouds, casting a heavy shadow over the field as it comes closer.
"This is why you can't just go about messing with the rules of the universe," the iPad guy says. "Break something hard enough and they'll show up to try to fix it." By now the speaker has switched to playing the next song on his playlist.
The jellyfish wraps its appendages around the branches of the tree and starts to pull, rocking the ground beneath the two of you as its roots shake out of position. With a burst of pink energy, the ground around you starts to desaturate, with the green grass turning to a dull gray before fading into a set of outlines on white. You turn, and iPad Guy is hitting a switch on its screen to turn it off. With a snap of his fingers, he's as good as gone, disappearing in an instant as everything else dematerializes over the course of a few moments.
You look at yourself, and find that while you're intact, your green, square body is instead a stark black and white. You're floating in a void, and you feel... drained, somehow.
Closing your eyes real hard doesn't do anything again. Jeez, what's the point in having these crazy powers if they only work when you're doing nonsensical things?
A sudden thought that, oddly, doesn't seem to be yours. "The Rule of Funny," it says.
> Look outside fourth wall and ask, "is there anybody out there?"
Not that there's much in the way of visual representation for it, but you say the words out to the void around you.
For a while, there's silence. But then you ask again, and after a beat, you see a hand start to move toward your right side, slowly at first, but more and more, until...
You roll out from the orb onto the ground below, back inside the dream store. Fitz is there, patting you on the back as you rise a bit. "Everything five-by-five, buster?"

> hide before cookie monster finds us
You take a cursory glance around the car for the hell of it, and notice a short-haired guy in a furry blue suit on his phone, carrying a tote of chocolate chip cookies from a fast food place and a googly-eyed suit.
He's got better things to do than to bother you, you figure.
