Steve is too much of a jerk, there has to be another way to get out of this mess. Maybe you find someone useful in one of the other two stalls.
The next stall is empty, but at least there is paper and it is reasonably clean. You think that you can even smell detergent, but this can't be real. Not in a place like this. Although this is a decent toilet, you are not needing its services and using it could actually be somewhat of a challenge at your current size. Just one more to go.
Now this one is really empty. There are the cigarette stumps and used condoms as always, but the paper and the toilet seat are missing. Judging from the huge crater and the broken pipes, you figure that this were some unofficial repairs. The pipes have been closed more or less efficiently meaning that there is quite a deep puddle of water in filling most of the stall. A dead cockroach is peacefully floating on it as small air currents are creating tiny ripples on the water only you can appreciate.
A dead cockroach? Thus far, you haven't really worried about your safety. You could be stomped to death by one of the guests, yes, but it's really hard to ignore them when they are around, so you wouldn't have a problem. Besides, they aren't out to kill you. But roaches are different. They are fast, agile, subtle. They will see you. And they will definitely be out to get you. Getting out of this place has suddenly increased in urgency.
As you go back to the main area, Steve has already left. Nothing seems to have changed and you are getting tired. Actually, you have two choices: You either return to the bar or dance floor and start looking for someone who can help you now, or you stay with the drunk in the second stall. His clothes seem decent and he should be out cold for a while so that you may take a nap yourself. And the roaches wouldn't approach a living, normal- sized human, now, would they? So what will you do?
