Alright, I feel like writing stuff, ya'll want some hot fresh content for the 36-person subforum, and I don't feel like coming up with a coherent plot. So, we're gonna have ourselves an improv CYOA, which basically means that I'm just gonna write whatever. That sounds like poo poo, I hear you say. Not so! With my patented CYOA technique, you get hopefully entertaining stuff, and I probably won't burn out because I can not care about whether I'm writing well. That didn't address the italicized statement and I'm done writing a preamble!

You find yourself standing before the entrance to a cave. Now, I don't mean "find yourself" in a walkabout sort of sense; I mean it in a "the last thing you remember is reading BYOB and you feel like no time has passed since then" sort of sense. Being a wise yobber, experienced in the ways of magical happenings, you check your inventory. You've got nothing but your clothes and some pocket lint, heck yeah! While celebrating this incredible discovery, you recall your contractual obligations as the point of view character in this story, so you turn around and discover that, to add an element of choice to the choose-your-own-adventure, the author has conveniently placed a road leading away from the cave, surrounded by forest. Faced with this conundrum, you decide to consult the real BYOB for guidance.
What say you, real BYOB? What should your game world representative do?

You tell yourself to examine the cave and look for food, and you agree that food would be pretty nice right now. No, you say, you need to examine the cave, too. Oh, you say, you'll do that. So you get to doing that.
First, you check your pocket lint for food. You find nothing but more pocket lint. You return the lint to your pocket lest it grow stronger in the light of the morning sun. You check the walls of the cave. Bare, with a hint of bear; it seems that this cave was once used by an ancient bear civilization. At least, that's what the markings, which are crudely scratched in modern English, say. You look further into the cave and realize that you don't have a light with you, so you only see darkness past a certain point.
You also find some spotted red mushrooms growing near the entrance, in case you feel like eating mysterious fungus.

Challenge accepted. I will attempt to create animated GIFs summarizing the op with manageable file sizes. I will probably end up contributing junk and for this I apologize in advance.
You are a treasure, thank u

Being the physical manifestation of a pastel comedy forum, you feel that it is your destiny to eat the mushrooms, so you decide to get it over with. They taste pretty good, savory with a hint of lemon, so you put some in your inventory to save for later.
With that done, you turn towards the cave. You, a pragmatist, decide that going to town for a flashlight or something would be too time consuming, so you saunter on in to the foreboding darkness. The light from the entrance of the cave slowly fades away. You hear nothing but your own soft footsteps echoing against the walls. A distant dripping sound drifts from further down in the cave. A sudden click interrupts the darkness as two beams of light begin to emanate from your eyes.
With your newfound, likely mushroom related superpower, you examine the cave like a professional cave inspector, poring over every detail, letting nothing by your illuminated gaze, taking note of every building code infraction. The cave is primarily composed of standard cave material, with numerous standard to formations protruding and intruding and eroding and generally doing what cave formations are known to do. You also find some more bear drawings, which suggests that the author of this game is setting up same sort of encounter with bears or bear-related paraphernalia somewhere down the line.
Besides the cave formations and ancient bear art, you also see an abandoned guitar. Exits are to the north (farther in) and south (back out of the cave).
