[You're wading in a low river, trying to advance as fast as you can--is the apparent setup, anyways. There's a table in the center of the room with a die to roll--and as you do so the world moves around you like some kind of VR deal. Everything looks, smells, and even sounds real… but it can't actually hurt you.]

[A monitor is lit up on the table. It reads: '24 spaces remain.']

OBSTACLE: THE IN LAWS

[fangirlitis]

[21 spaces remain]

[Suddenly, on a cropping of rocks in the middle of the river, the most terrifying thing anyone can see has appeared. Your in-laws, sitting around a low table. They gesture for you to have a seat, and before you can protest you're all sitting and having a delicious spot of tea.]

[You've got to make sure they don't make the rest of your life a living hell--what do you do?]

> Give a housewarming gift
> Talk about your job
> Talk about your future plans
> Run away
> Break into a killer guitar solo

Your best was 50% of our target goal!

But we'll move on from your failure.
