The couch's upholstery barely holds it together; stuffing seeps from every corner, giving the couch only a vaguely couch-like shape. [if stick untaken, add:] What looks like some sort of wooden stick is poking out from under one of the cushions.
Additional Tales from Castle Balderstone (2019)
> x couch (@ Lounge)
There's a distinctly you-shaped depression in the eidetic foam. Hopefully that'll flatten itself out before the professor notices.
Alcohol solves everything (2007)
> x couch (@ The Lounge)
A simple, yet serviceable, grey couch.
Alma Mater (2006)
> x couch (@ Living Room)
A comfy couch, upholstered in tasteful flowery velour.
Aunt Nancy's House (1997)
> x sofa (@ Play Room)
A dark blue sofa has been placed on the north wall, across from the television.
> x sofa (@ Living Room)
A pastel blue sofa sits against the east wall.
The Awakening (1998)
> x sofa (@ Inner Chamber)
An old sofa, so patched, faded and stained that its original color can no longer be determined. An unidentifiable odor rises from it.
Basket of Destiny (2001)
> x couch (@ Living Room)
The couch was nice when it was new. Too bad you didn't own it then. You picked it up recently at the Salvation Army, only $10. And you really can't see the rip in the upholstery from this angle anyway.
A Beauty Cold and Austere (2017)
> x sofa (@ Living Room)
The sofa features a faded floral-print pattern.
Beet the Devil (2011)
> x couch (@ Boudoir)
Like pretty much everything else here, it's red and soft and pretty.
> x couch (@ Den)
The couch is sort of a funny potato brown color. There's room on it to seat two people comfortably side by side, though half of it's already taken up by the furry slug demon. It's got the kind of deep back and soft cushions that look like they'd swallow you up once you sat down (the couch, not the furry demon, that is).
> x couch (@ Ornate Office)
It's a drab maroon - not even a proper red - and it looks pretty uncomfortable.
A Bet's a Bet (2004)
> x sofa (@ Living Room)
The sofa description. MJS
The Bibliophile (2014)
> x sofa (@ Severn Lobby)
Like all things from the 70s, this one's style is a mix of avocado and orange stripes.
> x sofa (@ Ashrae Room)
It appears to be very comfortable. Its sturdy leather is a rich brown color.
The Bryant Collection (2009)
> x couch (@ Family Room)
This couch replaced your old one back when you were in middle school. The old one was an ancient relic, made of wood with stiff cushions and buttons that had mostly fallen out. This one's much nicer.
Bullhockey 2: The Return of The Leather Whip (2019)
> x couch (@ Judith's Sitting Room)
This is a very comfortable and voluminous red plush velvet couch--you feel dwarfed by it. Obviously it is meant to accommodate up to four or five guests, with plenty of room besides.
A Christmas Quest (2020)
> x sofa (@ Living Room)
You see a large red leather sofa, it looks very comfortable.
The Colour Pink (2005)
> x sofa (@ The house, in the forest)
The silkworm is lying on this long sofa. It is almost long enough to be a bed, which may be lucky, as you cannot see any other bed in here. There may be one hidden under all the silk, but it does not matter enough for you to search.
The Cruise (2001)
> x blue sofa (@ Lounge)
It is a comfortable-looking blue sofa.
The Day I came back (2014)
> x couches (@ Living room)
Two couches, covered in plastic.
The Day I saved Elvis (2011)
> x sofa (@ Living room)
It's a small chesterfield sofa.
Dr. Dumont's Wild P.A.R.T.I. (1999)
> x couch (@ Living Room)
The couch is a horrific design, little more than cushions on a platform. The fabric is interesting, though not something you would have picked for yourself.
> x couch (@ Dressing Room)
It's just an old studio-type couch.
Ferryman's Gate (2020)
> x sofa (@ Parlor)
A firm yellow sofa in an elegant but outdated style.
The Frenetic Five vs. Sturm und Drang (1997)
> x sofa (@ Living room)
You found this old lime-green sofa on the street one day, and lugged it home before any of your housemates could stop you. They pointed out, skeptically, that the springs were busted, but a few minutes' work with a pair of pliers, a box of extra-large paper clips, and an old Slinky made for a fairly comfortable seat.
Galaxy Jones (2023)
> x couch (@ The West Side Of The Ground Floor)
An inoffensive beige couch, shaped in a half-circle.
Happy Ever After (2000)
> x couch (@ By the Museum Dumpster)
Well, this is pretty gross. Patches of mold cover what once must have been a nice couch, and the leather is cracking and peeling.
Heated (2010)
> x couch (@ living room)
This is an old couch that you bought at a yard sale years ago for fifteen bucks. There's a depression which you've carefully worked into it through your countless nights watching television. [if unmoved, add:] Other than that it has sat here collecting stains and dust since you brought it in; you don't even remember what the wall behind it looks like.
Highland Chef (2001)
> x couch (@ Living Room)
A very nice couch with velvet upholstry and gold trim.
Hippo on Elm Street (2015)
> x sofa (@ Living Room)
One wall of the room is taken up with a large grey sofa.
> x sofa (@ Underneath the Sofa)
You look up at the underside of the sofa. It's got springs and things. It's not very interesting.
Interface (2009)
> x couch (@ Living Room)
The couch is faded and worn. It reminds you of garage sales that your mother would drag you to near the local college campus.
Lydia's Heart (2007)
> x couch (@ On the Porch)
The old couch was upholstered in nubbly beige cloth a very long time ago. Woolly white stuffing is coming out through various rips and holes, and the cloth itself is badly stained, as if animals are in the habit of sleeping on it.
Mrs. Pepper's Nasty Secret (2008)
> x couch (@ Sitting Room)
The couch, which is easily long enough for you to lie on, is set facing the wide-screen TV. It’s covered in a rather depressing shade of brown leather, which has become more than a little shiny in some places, and scuffed in others.
Music Education (1999)
> x couch (@ Lobby Area)
This old couch's simulated leather upholstery is worn thin from years of use.
Nowheresville (2022)
> x sofa (@ Nice House)
A navy blue sofa with oversized cushions. It looks quite comfortable.
Perdition's Flames (1993)
> x couch (@ Lobby)
The couch is very large. It's upholstered in black leather, and has a shiny chrome frame.
Several Other Tales from Castle Balderstone (2020)
> x couch (@ Lounge)
This infamous custom-built couch is sure to feature in any conversation related to the Château Semix. Viewed up close, it fails to match its reputation; you will grant, however, that it is the longest couch you have ever seen.
The Silence of the Gods (2011)
> x sofas (@ Living Room)
Mixed quality, mixed colors. All in leather, though.
So, You've Never Played a Text Adventure Before, Huh? (2014)
> x couch (@ Parlor)
It does not look like a comfortable couch.
Toonesia (1995)
> x sofa (@ Inside Bud's Warren)
The sofa is covered with a garish carrot-patterned fabric.
The Wand (2017)
> x sofa (@ Reception Room)
The sofa is fashionably upholstered. There are several small pillows on it: all are light pink except for one, which is brown velvet with the number 2 stitched on it.
Zozzled (2019)
> x couches (@ Hotel Lobby)
An expensive place to park a classy caboose.
> x couches (@ Imbrium Suite)
Hoo boy! Talk about swanky seats.
