**To-Do List**
* Add people to talk to; populate the world. This is necessary for continued work on apartments, houses, and basically everything where people are.
* Edit the bookstore and add a (text-style:"underline")[simple] mechanic for generating books to read.
* Add and edit other stores; update this list as needed.
* Add something to do in the alleyway.
* Work on Charwood Avenue; add remaining houses.
* Expand the abandoned house.
* Map out the subway. Current priority is the Red Line.
* Expand the airport; tickets will remain unavailable until I have other airports to fly to.
* Work on the amusement park.
* Work on the volcano.
* Add endings.Created by Dreamor of Dream or Decay.

[[Look around.->grace street]] *Starts you on Grace Street.*
(link-goto: "Look somewhere else.", (either:"amusement park","charwood", "volcano")) *Starts you randomly somewhere else.*|thook>[(display: "time calc")] (link-rerun: "Increase hour by one?")[(set: $time to it + 60)(rerun:?thook)]
You are on Grace Street.
The street is lined with businesses on both sides. (link:"Most of the shops")[The [[bookstore]], *art supply store*, *clothing store*, and the *toy shop*] open at (if: $hour is not 10)[(link-reveal-goto: "ten A.M.", "grace street")[(set: $time to 10*60)]](else:)[ten A.M.], though the *grocery store* opens (if: $hour is not 8)[(link-reveal-goto: "two hours earlier", "grace street")[(set: $time to 8*60)]](else:)[two hours earlier], and the *convenience store* is open all hours of the day and night. The *restaurant* further down the street opens at (if: $hour is not 12)[(link-reveal-goto: "noon", "grace street")[(set: $time to 12*60)]](else:)[noon]. There's a dark [[alleyway->grace street alley]] next to the restaurant.
The street is at the edge of the [[residential area]], and an *apartment building* sits at that end, right where the street stops at a *park* with a [[bus stop->grace street bus]]. In the other direction, you can see a [[subway entrance->grace street subway]].The bookstore opens at (if: $hour is < 10)[(link-reveal-goto: "ten A.M.", "bookstore")[(set: $hour to 10)]](else:)[ten A.M. Inside, there are many, many books on display on shelves and tables. The front is reserved for bestsellers. Past that, there are several clearly-defined sections, dividing the shop by (link:"fiction")[fiction (general, romance, sci-fi and fantasy, young adult)], nonfiction, and (link:"children")[children (kid's nonfiction, middle readers, young readers, babies)].]
You can go back to [[Grace Street->grace street]].You are at the Grace Street subway station. [[You can get on the red line->subway red line]], or you can go up to [[Grace Street->grace street]].Two buses stop here. One will take you to the [[volcano]]. The other will take you to the [[amusement park]].
Or you can go back to [[Grace Street->grace street]].|thook>[(display: "time calc")]
You are at the volcano. There's not much to do here.
The bus station is at the base of a hiking trail. There are instructions to follow the marked path to the volcano's rim and back again. There are restrooms and *an information center* here.
The bus can take you back to [[Grace Street->grace street]].(set:$hour to (trunc: $time/60))(if: $hour >= 24)[(set: $hour to it - (trunc: $hour/24)*24)](if: $time >= 60)[(set: $minute to $time - (trunc: $time/60)*60)]Hour: $hour. Minute: $minute.(unless: $hour >=8 and $hour <=20)[ You could go to sleep now.]|thook>[(display: "time calc")]
Several other streets branch off from [[Grace Street->grace street]] when it passes the residential area. Which one do you want to go down?
[[Charwood Avenue->charwood]]
Peep Street
Ginger Circle|thook>[(display: "time calc")] (link-rerun: "Increase hour by one?")[(set: $time to it + 60)(rerun:?thook)]
You are on Charwood Avenue.
This is a residential area, and there are a number of houses here, numbered from 101 and increasing to… however many houses there are. The houses are small and close together, with not a lot of yard. Most people's yard space is taken up by closely-packed gardens. Some of the houses have fences marking the property lines, though not all.
The houses are all brightly colored; [[red->104 Charwood Ave]], *orange*, *yellow*, *green*, *blue*, *purple*, *pink*. [[One of the houses->102 Charwood Ave]], painted brown, is clearly abandoned.
You can go back to [[Grace Street->grace street]]. Or you can pick [[another street->residential area]] to go down.|thook>[(display: "time calc")]
The mailbox identifies it as 102 Charwood Avenue, but the house is clearly abandoned. It was painted a mocha brown, once, but the color is worn and the paint is peeling. Half of the roof has caved in on itself, covered by a bright blue tarp. The yard is overgrown with tall weeds. The house next to it, [[104 Charwood Ave]], has a yard kept meticulously mowed up to the property line and no further.
"Do Not Enter" is spraypainted on a piece of plywood covering the door. It could probably be moved aside to allow *entry*.
Go back to [[Charwood Avenue->charwood]].You are at the airport subway station. [[You can get on the red line->subway red line]], or you can go up to the [[airport->airport lobby]].|thook>[(display: "time calc")] (link-rerun: "Increase hour by one?")[(set: $time to it + 60)(rerun:?thook)]
The airport is filled with (link-goto: "people", (either: ...(open-storylets: where 'airport' is in its tags))'s name) rushing to and from their destinations. There is a [[ticket counter->airport ticket]] nearby.
You can go [[back to the subway->airport subway]].|thook>[(display: "time calc")]
You can get a ticket here! Where do you want to go?
*Doesn't look like anywhere's available yet…*
Or return to the [[airport lobby]].(storylet: when (visited: "airport lobby") and $hour is 8)A brown man with a thin, scruffy beard and a navy suit and tie brushes by you with a quick, "Sorry!" before he continues towards the security checkpoint, pulling a large rolling suitcase behind him. [[There's a lot going on in the lobby.->airport lobby]](storylet: when (visited:"airport lobby"))There are people everywhere. The [[airport lobby]] always feels busy and crowded.|thook>[(display: "time calc")]
You are in a dark alleyway. Most of what's here is trash; scattered on the ground, piled high in trashbags, and overflowing a dumpster.(click:"scattered on the ground")[
It's just trash.](click:"piled high in trashbags")[
It's just trash.](click:"overflowing a dumpster")[
Your hands are dirty now.]
[[Back to Grace Street.->grace street]]You are on the subway. This is the Red Line, stretching from Grace Street all the way to the airport.
You look at the stops on this line.

* …
* *Haven Street*, has access to other lines. blue? green? yellow?
* [[Airport->airport subway]]|thook>[(display: "time calc")]
The house is painted a soft, desaturated red. It is next to [[an abandoned house->102 Charwood Ave]] and *a blue house*.
Go back to [[Charwood Avenue->charwood]].|thook>[(display: "time calc")]
You are at the amusement park. There's not much to do here.
