Mirror Mirror On The Wall [Infinite Jest]

As the team finally grew closer and closer to the source, they finally arrived what was the cause of all that noise. The door opened and here and behold they saw something particularly interesting. It was a stage like the last room, but it was organized and decorated in a different manner. It seemed to be made in a setting of an old manor. A working camera crew was active with their attention glued to the scene before them: a man in red costume fighting off two pretend enemies in dinosaur and robot theme costumes respectively.


A bluster of exaggerated movement and impressive acrobatics can be seen as the actor continued his acting with his costumed co-workers. The guards that were present in the building had their attention on the scene as well. But it didn't mean they weren't doing their jobs either way.

Key:

They would stick together. Their movements in sync. They were one and as one they would continue to be. They would enter the room with the sounds of movement and the opening of doors behind them. They would see the toys, but decide not to play. Too play would draw much attention and end the fun to soon. No. No play not right now. Maybe later.

They would back out of the room of toys. Back out and back into the halls now full of life. The fake and the real would mingle together, like well blended ingredients for a perfect dish to be served. They would not be able to tell each other apart, the faces of the grinning dolls that talked and laugh as they milled about. They would walk among these dolls undisturbed. For the dolls did not think nothing of things that looked like they belonged.

The dolls just continued to chat and laugh as they drifted along among them; however, there were dogs and screamers among the droves of dolls. Dogs that patrolled the halls moving this way and that and screamers that kept them all in view from above. It was these things they had to watch out for as they moved and swayed in the sea of grinning, laughing, talking dolls.

They would continue on. A step or two here and pause. A long dash there. And pause. The dolls, the dolls. They were leaving now. They went to play other games leaving only dogs and screamers to worry about, but they would be nothing to them for now. The dogs had not caught their scents and the screamers remained blind to their doings. They were safe for now. And now more movement and a pause. Now they were in a lively room. Another stage, but with a play and many people. Watching. Watching. And dogs. Sniffing. Sniffing. The sound was loud and the attention on the red bird and creatures on stage. But careful they would be. For the dogs may not see, but sniff, sniff they did. Best not let them sniff and find them there.

A brief pause to enjoy the atmosphere, rest the feet, and the engage the mind. Tick tock. Tick tock. The bell went off. Time to go. Go. Go. Go. Forward and turn and down and turn and up. Pass the dog. Pass the black birds. Follow the snake. Now hide and wait.  

Movement:

The Red Feather Ranger made a dramatic pose before dashing over and making an impressive jump kick towards the reptilian enemy. A grunt escaped from the monster upon impact. They seemed hurt, but it wasn't enough to put them down. The hero of the show even made a quick somersault away from the counter the robot monster lashed out with his metallic arm! Underneath the mask, the man known as Jack Ranells smirked.

After a bit of a disaster, the one of wax kept on take after along in case there was any plausibility of messing up any longer. They needed to dodge that, victory would cruel there were more openings to act upon the internal wants of chaotic acts. It was never the reason why that concerned them, it was more the reality of when. When would the next time they could act on it happen? When would the next target be presented? When could the meet others in the same headspace that they shared? The intellect was cramped and full of the dream of unceasing giggling, but was the chuckling at others or oneself? What precisely was the joke here? Playing along to a tune that subtle elements the exterior of really being of their claim? It was a part to think approximately to pass the time, but that kind of considering took its claim turn among the execution of the costumed entertainers.

It was kind of curiously, to say the slightest, the whole concept was straightforward and flighty at the same time. There was a great and awful fellow, the oversimplified terms of it were that the terrible fellow would never get the upper hand. At the conclusion of it all, it was a motivational story for the kids to eat their vegetables and do great in school. With that, possibly they can moreover be feathered furries.

"Wait, is that their title? No matter...."

Regardless of the title of the costumed individuals, in the event that as it were they knew what was really going on as the proceeded to play imagine. What the kids truly required was something to accept in, a sort of opportunity that came in all grins and went almost their possess rules. To the one of wax, that was the definition of interminable joke, having the final snicker for the purpose of the flexibility of doing whatever you needed.


"Looks like the plug is this way, let me lead for a while. "

The one of wax felt that it was around time that they begun to do something, the hairy fellow need of shaving practices made up for pulling up more than their reasonable share of the weight. In any case, it was very humiliating that the one of wax was incapable to oversee anything for the time being. In arrange to put a provoke halt to that, they marginally maneuvered towards the camera plug in.

"Let's see what happens."


Movement

Spoiler:

The acting continued in the background. No words were conveyed. Just a series of yells and acrobatic movement was going on the stage. The camera team continued to film the scene while there was a team working under their noses. By following the cable, they were able to find the very source of the camera's power, a wall plug.

Map:

it is time to blind them.
their eyes were shut but they could still see no longer it wouldnt happen never and always for a brief time. the MaGnIfIcEnT BeArD walks closer to the eye stalk and rips it out of the wall.
no blood.
not very funny.
but they will all laugh soon.
they would get the joke.

"Cut!" The cameraman hollered out just as Feather Ranger Red was about to make one more exaggerated pose. The trio of costumed actors looked confused. It was rare that they had a cut in the action sequences. Jack was usually pretty great in them with little need for it. The camera crew fiddled with the device they were using, but they seemed just as confused as well for a while. "Hold on, guys. Something's wrong with the camera. Hey, dude in the back! Jared, right? You mind checking up on the cord back there? We might've overextended or something."

There was also the sound of footsteps farther from the stage's right. "Yo, Jared. Get on that or I'll tell the boss you've been slacking."

In the back, a guard annoyingly hollered back before beginning to step towards the team's direction.

no. Father can never know they were telling jokes. the eye wasnt blind it was sleeping yes nothing to worry about move along bEfOrE eVeRyOnE nEeDs tO dIe

The plug was back on. Just as the guard was about to near even further to the group, the cameraman noticed something was going on with the camera. Through the lens and the LCD screen, it was back on again. Weird. But he wasn't going to complain about it as long as they can get back on schedule, "Never mind! It's working again! My bad, guys!"

The guard groaned and simply walked back to his usual meandering shift. The rest of the employees made nothing out of the situation and went back to work.

ssh ssh its okay nothing to see here everythings fine its fine no ones here
go back to your rambling brambling souless puppets listen to the woman in red and youll be laughing soon promise pinkie swear it will be a funny joke.

strange. strange to feel the chest thump feels like frighten so oddly. the MaGnIfIcEnT BeArD was never afraid but the man behind the beard could be less man there were things out there there were things inside in the head talking rambling brambling voices rusty red they had to go fire sale everything half prize like a carnival ride. rides were very diversionary they could distract the puppets and make them laugh like screaming everyone would be entertaned forever and not at all.
so empty like a pit full of trash only one could fill the void but the void was full of sick
slaughter was the best medicine the city was sick it needed a doctor to give the grinning doctor shot.
they would be the doctors to play hospital with the dolls and everything would be fix with a lollipop cherry red red like rusty.
We can't do anything like that again. If we get caught the game is over.
Remember: we don't exist.

it was a fun game sneak around like snakes in the grass slicing like basketballs in that one book. cat and mouse mice meese mooses but the mooses were cats and they were the snakes cheshire grin stop like freeze tag but forever dont but get tagged then your out. then you wouldnt get the joke it was a funny joke you never laugh again like a soulless puppet on strings dangling to and frown upside down in the brain goodbye everyone..

after the eye stalk was back in the head the red ranger would dance red ranger with his red ranger friends.
No one would suspect anything at all. They were all blind idiots. They couldn't see their hands in front of their faces. The truth would be revealed and everyone would laught it was a funny joke they would love it and everyone would like each other again.
friends untill the End of Days. now it was time to thump feet quickly before they see they cant do it it will ruin the joke it will be a funny joke. they would play pretend with the costumes again never the wiser always the dumber.

m0v3m3nt:

As the actors, the guards, and cameraman continued their work, they would never notice the slithering group that continued to gleefully connive to ruin their work for their own goals. Once the Jest team finally arrived at their latest destination, there was a switchboard with cables straddling up to the ceiling and linking to the electrical lights above.

eenie meanie miney moe
will he press the button?
no.


w41t f0r th3 punchl1n3

the buttons were trouble. they were conspiring against them. all the tid bits and gizmos wanted to see them fail they screamed for help at a gentle touch and the puppets rushed to quiet the babes luaghing. time was wasting away rotting like fruit flies like a banana rotten filth.

it was important but why? meaning is meaningless unless they could guess the test of the jest sneaking sneakily like snakes frustration. what did they want? they told them what they wanted but they didnt tell them what they wanted for this place.
ponder.
wonder.
the truth was lies. it lied in the box of the mask man. the puppets could never see it before the punchline it was a funny joke sneaky like spiders the puppets danced on strings in the web caught like flies like a banana rotting filth but tag your it game over goodbye. what was in the box? meaningless. what lived in the box was meaningless but the box was the lie of truth big brown square cant be seen dont get caught tag youre it.

something to do here the puzzle was speaking. it echoed demented fermented rusty red ranger running the gutters like a clog a funny clog they would laugh in the streets when they got it. the wheels were turning round and round spinning churning that rusty red sludge.
No one could see if there was no one to see.
I think I have something.

rusty red dust sprinkling down like rain choking the air and ground. all the worlds a stage a play a game for liars and cheats they would win the game and everyone would laugh it was a funny joke.
the worlds a stage.
the world died five years ago.
the stage needed to die or it cant make the world right it wont match it has to match it has to match they have to be the same or esle their in trouble.
I think we should see what's behind door number 3 before I tell you. You'll get a laugh out of it.

everyone would laugh at the joke it was a funny joke the room would be filled with applause then quiet. silence was golden it would make the room pretty dazzling for the show and everyone would laugh and laugh and scream. but they had to put up all the decorations first.
