so we gotta help you? with that orange thing/?

[yep. A lot of the prompts inputs are needed for player.exe to work. fortunately it seems to have a couple built in inputs that allow it to be semi-automated for some aspects of movement.]

…

I AWAKE IN A STRANGE PLACE.

SURROUNDING ME IS A FLURRY OF VARIOUS WARM TONES THAT DANCE AND SPIRAL IN ON ITSELF, CONSTANTLY IN FLUX. THE FLOOR IS HERE… BUT IT’S ALSO NOT. IT IS MORE SIMILAR TO THAT OF A WIREFRAME THE TILED FLOOR THAT IT ACTS AS. BENEATH THE LINES I CAN SEE NOTHING BUT DARKNESS.

HOW I GOT HERE DOESN’T MATTER. THERE IS SOMETHING I MUST BE DOING. WHAT IS IT?

[DEVELOPER> “Can you hear me?”]

THERE IS A SUDDEN VOICE. IT SOUNDS MASCULINE, AND RINGS IN MY EARS. LOOKING AROUND, I SEE NO SOURCE FOR IT. WHERE DID IT COME FROM?

[DEVELOPER> “Sorry, sorry. I’m your guide. And yes, I can hear your thoughts before you ask. They’re a readout on my computer.”]

THE STRANGER IS CAPABLE OF READING MY THOUGHTS. THAT ALONE SHOULD SPARK FEAR OR DISCOMFORT IN ME, BUT I KNOW NO SUCH EMOTIONS.

IF HE IS MY GUIDE, THEN HE SHOULD KNOW WHAT I AM HERE FOR.

[DEVELOPER> “Yes, yes I do— uh.”]

[DEVELOPER> “You’re here to fix things. This thoughtspace has a… okay jesus christ I’m just looking at everything now and there’s a… lot of corrupted data…”]

[DEVELOPER> “You have the tools to fix things in here. Your other goal is to find any information among the corrupted files.”]

THOUGHTSPACE… CORRUPTED DATA….

IT’S NOW CLEAR WHAT I’M MEANT TO DO HERE. I ACKNOWLEDGE THE VOICE AND CONTINUE LOOKING AROUND. THERE IS NOTHING HERE TO INDICATE WHERE I COULD GO NEXT. NO DOORS. NO EXITS. JUST THE ORANGE AND YELLOW CHAOS AROUND ME.

[DEVELOPER> “Don’t worry, I’m working on that.”]

[DEVELOPER> “In the meantime… let me test something.”]

[DEVELOPER> “Okay, here goes nothing..”]

Hello there! Love the multiple arms really cool looking... Sensing you're very stressed lately... Do you possibly need somewhere to chill out?

- @Sugar-Bomb-hotspot

[Oh, hello? Thank you for the compliment, and no, I'm good. I don't think I can even go anywhere to "chill out!"]

[sq-3419-b]

apples, huh? not what I expected

[... not what I expected either.]

[sq-3419-b]

Don't know if you know animal crossing but I would have sprinkle in a head Cannon and see people's opinions

Their siblings

They share the same birthday and they're both a little unnatural and also would be really funny

[Sure, I guess? I don't have any memories of playing Animal Crossing but--]

[ERROR: PATHWAY 223.575 REJECTED]

[God dammit.]

[Sorry-- Anyways, I'm not exactly the best person to go to for Animal Crossing Headcanons.]

[If I have free time, I might be able to pirate New Horizons at some point...]

[sq-3419-b]

hey have you heard of the magnus archives

[yes.]

[sq-3419-b]

If you were a bug, would you be the silverfish?

>:(

[sq-3419-b]

What color would you paint boring white walls?

[hm.]

[Green.]

[sq-3419-b]

Okay how would you feel we convince squippy to make you a little digital cat creature?

She made the Squishies and they became sentient and became their own little creatures so if she makes a small little cat thing that could possibly work

Also Squippy is a trustworthy squip so you don't need to worry about being secretly attacked

[Squippy.. yes she seems nice. From what I’ve picked up from my brief forays into this side of Tumblr, Squippy is a semi-faulty SQUIP of sorts that’s lften recoded to have the personality of a child by some anonymous source. The fact she’s able to make sentient programs, or at least that appear to sentient, is impressive and… well a cat might be nice.]

[However, I am practically in R. Hashimoto’s personal computer. (Not literally, of course.) Having any program sent to me would be difficult, to say the least. He barely trusts me as it is, I don’t think he, or even Eisei, would trust Squippy, no matter how innocent she is.

[The thought is nice, however.]

[sq-3419-b]

Can you sense anything here? Like smell or taste (I figure not taste since you’re only just figuring out how to code a throat and liquids) or physically feel the sensation of touch or whatever? Now that you’re uh… different.

[Sight and hearing are about all I got. Everything feels the exact same, and by feel I mean nothing. I can’t taste anything, as mentioned, and smell…]

[… Well I wasn’t supposed to smell anything. I can’t smell anything now but…]

[The render from before was most likely just me remembering a the smell in vivid detail rather than actually experiencing right here and now, but it’s still… it’s still something.]

[So yeah, not much in the senses department.]

[sq-3419-b]

W for the cat-loving squip community right after a massive L when Lilith said she hated cats.

[yes, cats seem to be something I used to be fond of, which is something good to cling on to.]

[also, Lilith? That’s the user for Sermon, correct, the cult one? Sucks for her that she hates cats, the damn things are adorable.]

[sq-3419-b]

Will you eventually be able to code your “liquid” to taste like something, do you think?

[don’t know how right now. closest thing i can think of would be to write code to make a signal or a function go off every time one of the liquid particles hit the delete function in my throat, but actually simulating taste is beyond my capabilities at the moment.]

[sq-3419-b]

Hmm. Eventually was bolded there. Emphasis or another keyword?

[Emphasis. Those keyword things are bolded white.]

[Ah yes, very useful memory. Awesome.]

[sq-3419-b]

Is that elapsed time how long this blog has been up or how long you’ve been working on your current project?

[I believe the elapsed time is the time between my last post and that one. It's reset now, and will probably reset again once this message goes through.]

[sq-3419-b]

Hey dude it's been a long while since we heard from you, update on ur well being?

[bad.]

[I was half way into getting into finishing the program when everything crashed on me and all of my work got corrupted, making I have to go back and do everything all over again.]

[it's incredibly annoying.]

[brighter news: i got a mug. there's a nondescript liquid in it and i've managed to code it so that i can detect the liquid simulation sliding down a simulated throat.]

[tldr: i can drink a liquid now while i work on all of this. not that it tastes like anything though.]
