Here I am, stuck in an elevator with you~
LET ME OUT! LET ME OUT!
The TRAPPED IN AN ELEVATOR Meme

There you are, minding your own business when you have to get on an elevator. Maybe you're on your way to work or home. Maybe you're out running errands. Maybe you're visiting someone or some other various reason.

It's just a box that goes up and down until it doesn't. It suddenly stops and now you're stuck. Uh-oh.

How to play!
Post a top-level comment with your character and why they are taking an elevator that day. Try not to leave a blank comment.
The options are almost endless! Is your character claustrophobic? Is the elevator in dire need of repairs or is it standard maintenance gone awry? Has the power gone out? Is it a trap? Any hanky-panky happening? What's going on?
Have fun! Maybe you'll make a new friend or a nemesis. Who knows?

[ When the elevator comes to a jarring halt, Kate is startled. She doesn't jump out of her skin but it's pretty clear that she had not been expecting it to stop. Her rent is too high for this kind of nonsense.

It doesn't figure, not to Kate. Her day had been fairly normal up to this point.

She pushes the open-door button to not avail believing this just to be a minor setback. Maybe they won't be stuck for hours. ]


Great.

[ From her green purse, she fishes out her phone only to find that she has no signal on it. ]

Even better.

[ She turns to the other woman. ]

Does your phone have any bars on it?

[She checks hers, shakes it (as though that will help!) and then shakes her head. Some furious thmumb tapping later...]

Nope. Casimir (my brother) is going to murder me.
