SELECT YOUR DESTINY BOOK #9 - HAUNTED MANSION MADNESS!

OK, something is clearly off here. Don't you know what a berserker rage is? It's a mental state that ancient Vikings would go into that caused them to go into an uncontrollable fury. "Leaving a restaurant in a huff" is not the same damn thing. But you know what, yeah, let's go with it.

Sheesh... you look just a little high strung there, pal!

You FURIOUSLY ask the waitress for the check, but the only sound that comes out of your throat is a strangled gurgle, because, y'know, you're just SO ANGRY. Sounds sort of like "CHHASCKPLARGGH". Oops, she thinks you're choking on something! She just ran off looking for someone to administer the Heimlich maneuver. Oh well, maybe you can calm down enough to pronounce..

We will miss Angus tonight, we will miss his sword.

Oh hey, look! A real life ancient Viking! How'd he get to modern times? Was he frozen in a glacier and brought back to life? Did some ancient Rune Spell send him to modern times? Maybe two dudes jammed him into a time-travelling phone booth! While you're wondering to yourself about the unlikelihood of his appearance (and trying to unclench your throat muscles), he lifts you up out of your seat and turns you around to administer the Heimlich. It's really too bad you didn't notice the fact that he was, himself, ALSO in a berserker rage. See, it turns out he didn't really know his own strength, and caused you to hork up your internal organs when he pounded you in the gut.

MAYBE NEXT TIME YOU'LL FIND A LESS *LITERAL*
WAY TO VENT YOUR SPLEEN! TRY AGAIN!

If I sleep in the nude, why am I wearing the same clothes I "rolled out of bed with in the morning"?

"Doctor says he's got the diabetes, says that makes him hyperglycemic. Know what that is? Means he's got to get a lot of sugar in him all the time, or he'll get all listless and moody!"
One of the best Destiny Books so far.

Of course there's also the issue of why I have toiletries when I didn't pack.

I'm still loving this. It doesn't need to make sense.

Two words: birthday suit.

Wait a second, when you go back to your room after killing that monster, is that ghost from the "A Christmas Carol" movie starring Albert Finney as Scrooge called "Scrooge"?
I think it was a musical. My family watches it every year.

I would like to propose that the sentence "He flails wildly about as you punch him in the hump." is one of the funniest things I've ever read. Kudos to you guys.

I really hate to be a wet blanket, but as an actual type 1 diabetic, I'd just like to point out that too much insulin is the cause of a diabetic seizure, not at all the solution. The solution to hypoglycemia (what causes a seizure) is more sugar, and the way to deal with a seizure in progress is to give the person a glucagon shot, which is quite distinctive from an insulin shot.

You know that this story is supposed to be funny, full of teh jokes, and in no way educational or based on true events, right?

I was just glad I could spell "diabetes" correctly after years of hearing those commercials with Wilford Brimley.

so, is there a good ending? I think I went through all the choices and never saw one that I would think of as a happy ending for player.
