Interactivity and Writing Task Four

It chugs and [[splatters -> SplatterTitle]] black, thick oil all around the [[room -> RoomTitle]].

As it splodges across your [[face -> FaceTitle]], you quickly close your eyes and pull back. You drop the [[wrench -> WrenchTitle]] in your left hand.

You quickly grab the rag on the desk and forcefully shove it into the [[pipe -> PipeTitle]] that is bursting. Phew! You look around, it’s nothing that you can’t clean up quickly. You grab another rag next to the [[toolbox -> ToolboxTitle]].

You open your mouth with shock, as if it were a gaping hole in your face. “gah!” you spit at the floor in disgust. Some oil had dripped from your glasses into your [[mouth -> mouthAndFloorTitle]].

You stand up with a wobble and blindly scuffle with your desk for the nearest rag. You frantically pick it up and wipe the oil off your face, especially your [[glasses -> glassesandOldTitle]]. That’s when you see it.

You notice the machine is making a loud, grungy sound now. You look down at the [[floor -> mouthAndFloorTitle]] and notice that the oil continues to leak through the bottom.

As you grab the rag, you notice that the toolbox is sitting on an [[old -> glassesandOldTitle]], brown text book.

The oil seems to pouring out the machine relentlessly. How should you stop it? Maybe you could try to [[empty -> emptyTitle]] the machine from any oil that is still inside of it. Or, maybe you could [[look -> lookTitle]] around for something else to help you stop the machine from malfunctioning.

You haven’t looked at it since you started trying to build this stupid thing, maybe it’s time to start looking through this grubby old [[manual -> manualTitle]].

You go to the back of the machine and open the hatchet that leads to the inner tank where the oil is stored. As it creeks open, the oil bursts into your face again. You fall back onto the floor and spit black goo everywhere. That didn’t work. Maybe you should look around for something else to [[help -> lookTitle]] you.

The oil seems to be spreading a bit faster as each minute goes by. Better be quick about finding something. You search through the [[cupboard -> cupboardTitle]]. You search through the [[drawers -> drawersTitle]]. You search your [[desk -> deskTitle]].

You pick up the toolbox and move it to the side of the desk. You wipe the front page of the manual, “A Guide in Building the [[Technicont -> technicontTitle]] 3000”. You [[open -> openTitle]] the first page.

Mario suggested that you try it out. You were very hesitant at first, but you figured you had nothing to lose. How bad could it be, right? I mean, everyone has to experiment with these types of things at least once in their life. It’s not like you had a girlfriend or anything. Whatever, let’s hope it just isn’t this messy when you [[use -> openTitle]] it.

You open the first page. A blotch of ink falls on the index. Shit. You quickly look for the most relevant chapter. Maybe something on oil? Leaking? Aha! Chapter fifty six, [[“The Oil Tank” -> oilTankTitle]].

You slip and slide to the cupboard. Nope, better try [[something else -> lookTitle]].

You open the drawers to violently, they almost pop out. Nothing. [[Damn -> lookTitle]].

You shuffle through papers and files on your desk. That’s when you see [[it -> manualTitle]].

The oil tank holds the petroleum needed to bla bla bla… You have to keep the oil heated at a constant la la la… If the oil is leaking, open the front hatchet of the Technicont and press the following buttons: [[Red -> redTitleOne]] [[Blue -> blueTitleOne]] [[Green -> greenTitleOne]]

The oil starts to slow down, the pipes have stopped leaking. Eureka! This seems to be working, finally, some results! The manual then says something about the [[blue -> blueTitleTwo]] button and then the [[green -> greenTitleTwo]] button.

The oil starts to pour out even more now, that’s definitely not the [[right -> oilTankTitle]] one!

The machine starts to beep loudly and consistently. It’s a bit deafening, you might want to pick [[another button -> oilTankTitle]].

Suddenly, everything seems to be calm. The machine lets out a couple of beeps and boops and then there’s this hum in the room that just feels right. It’s like when a computer is running at optimal speed and its hum is like a lullaby. All that’s left now is the [[green -> greenTitleThree]] button.

Uh oh! It sounds like it’s about to blow up! Quickly, press the blue one! [[The blue one -> greenTitleThree]]!

You press the green button with your oily, black fingers. The humming stops. There is absolute silence. You look up at its face and you see the glow in its robotic little eyes. It’s… It’s working? You grin the naughtiest grin of your life. You don’t wipe the oil off your hands, instead, they go straight for your zipper. According to the manual, it should be working perfectly now. You set the vibrate speed to maximum. You apply water-based lubricant to the lower opening. You let your pants fall to the ground, along with your underwear. You slip into it and start slowly, but then the vibrations start to intensify, harder and stronger. You go and go and go [[until… ->Title One]]
