Cycle 2 (6)

Dear Diary,

Yep, the Floor 40 catgirl is not going to let me use her kitchen. Not even to reheat the chocolate. Oh well.

It's ok, I am pretty tired. And I need to record what the floors are!

Where was I yesterday…

Ok! Floor 35! Floor 35 is an autumn forest, it's super pretty. There's a group of hobgoblins, but the main problem with the floor is bees. There's like five beehives, and they're super territorial. The hobgoblins say that the honey gives a super good buff to speed and strength, so when we're going slower we'll try to get some. Right now there's just too many bees to fight through to get any.

Floor 36 is technically a water floor. But the water is only like three feet deep in some places. Big trees grow out of the water. Some of the trees have been cut down and made into a dam by giant beavers. There are also giant otters. Mika says if we kidnapped a giant otter she wouldn't grumble (they're that cute), so Avi and I gave them a bunch of fish and we'll try to snuggle them next cycle. Just to see how it goes.

Floor 37 is the floor where we have to kill goblins to get five keys. Honestly not my favorite floor. Or Avi's. We asked them if they could kill each other and then sell the keys to us, and they said they'd think it over. I hope they find some way of killing each other painlessly. That would be nice.

If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

Floor 38 is the dire wolves! Siri and Bear and Linda and Floofles and Balto and Wolfie McWolfpants. The whole pack. They were suuuuuper thrilled to see us, more than usual. I think they're bored. I mean, in the old dungeon they were always kidnapped and pampered at the start of each cycle. They're used to being showered in love and attention. But now no one's around to do that. The kobolds are down on Floor 54, which is too far to take them.

We fed them, and I think next cycle we'll have to spend a while brushing them. Just so they don't forget that they're loved. That would be sad.

Anyways, Floor 39 is the people with no skin, bones or muscle. They're just blood veins and organs held together with magic. It's… silly. It goes straight through "creepy" territory and out the other side. Whoever designed them was trying way too hard.

The people are nice. They kinda remind me a little bit of the yetis, but less stuck-up. Very calm and formal. They just want to be left alone to read poetry, mostly. Mika told them she writes songs, and that Aya writes poetry, so they might trade poetry books in the future.

Which gets us to Floor 40. With the catgirl who won't let me cook.

I'm not bitter about that at all, nope.

…Maybe I could get Samurai to charm her into letting me use it. That would be slightly unethical, though.

But only a little bit?

Nah, not worth it. In two days I'll be on Gigi's floor, and I can cook all I want there.

Goodnight, Dungeon!
