==> Lily: Sign in after a day or two.

[methodologicalanalyst]

Well, that was an interesting little adventure. Not two minutes into entering the Medium, and you've had to deal with all sorts of trouble. Those creatures wanted to know all about biology. So you showed them. In their faces. And that totally lasted a good day or so. You're not even sure how you got any sleep in this mess. But you sure missed a lot, apparently. You even managed to somehow lose connection to Wess upon entering the Medium!

You haven't even ventured outside of your house yet, but you've at least seen out your windows. You'd go outside to see it, since there's so many sciencey things littered about, but those canyons make it look pretty damn dangerous. Maybe in a bit you'll actually go outside. When you're done actually getting back onto Pesterchum. Gotta check up on Shea and the others, at the very least. They might be worried about how long you've been gone, after all.

Oh, um, hello Lily!
Hello hello hello hello!
You're in the g4me... too m4ybe, I think?
Th4t's good, m4ybe, yes!

[methodologicalanalyst]

yeah im in the game!
ive been in the game for about a day though i think
its been nonstop trying to get these dumb things to leave me alone so i can go explore more

[apiarycryptonaut]

Oh, um, w4it, those... um, 4re they imps?
Or consorts, m4ybe, Lily?
Unless, oh, w4it w4it... w4it w4it do you... h4ve other things on... your pl4net, m4ybe, yes?

[methodologicalanalyst]

imps sound more like it really
i havent really been able to see what else is on this place yet
the imps keep blocking my doors

[apiarycryptonaut]

Oh, you should pop... the imps, I think!
Or solve them if... you c4n, m4ybe, yes.
4nything to m4ke them... stop being me4nies, yes.
They're 4ctu4lly not very... sm4rt, so if you... outwit them, you win!
I confused 4 whole... group of them with... 4 rubik's cube, yes.
They h4d no ide4... wh4t it w4s, m4ybe.
4nd them, pop pop... pop pop, de4d imps!

[methodologicalanalyst]

they really do pop when i hit them with my yoyo!
they seem really really interested in my science books
so i let them read them
and then beat them in their confusion!
they were trying to steal them too
bad imps

[apiarycryptonaut]

Oh, yes, very b4d!
I don't know why... they w4nt to ste4l... things when they don't... underst4nd them 4t 4ll.
It doesn't m4ke sense!
They were trying to... ste4l some of my... puzzles, they were, yes.
4nd they even tried... to e4t one, m4ybe.
It w4s very silly!
So I popped them.
One of them sque4ked.

[methodologicalanalyst]

yeah it doesnt make sense
they probably just want to cause trouble and mayhem
and thats not gonna happen in my house
i noticed some of them squeak!
i wonder why they keep popping into the grist anyway

[apiarycryptonaut]

But they're not sm4rt... enough to be successful.
Th4t's very very very... very silly of them!
4nd um, I think... they pop into grist... just bec4use, I think.
Bec4use this is 4... g4me we're pl4ying, m4ybe.
Th4t would m4ke sense!

Time and causality are a giant CLUSTERFUCK in the face of this game so you really have no idea how far along this player is in relation to yourself. Still, it would be best to get to know as many of the other players as possible. Your HELPLESS TEAM is (clearly) counting on you!

Well now. ~~CS
Are you another new player or someone a bit more seasoned? ~~CS

[methodologicalanalyst]

if you mean to this game
then id say im kind of new
but these imp guys are getting kind of old!!

[callouslystalwart]

Well, comparatively. ~~CS
~I~ don't think any of ~us~ are exactly an old hat at it, yet... ~~CS
But some of ~us~ were called in later. ~~CS
~I~ think ~I~ can assume that doesn't include you. ~~CS

[ataraxicarcher]

holy shit doc Livingston i presume.

thought the imps might gotten you after i got in.

[methodologicalanalyst]

they almost did
ive been dealing with them ever since i got in
they sure know how to get in the way of science!

[ataraxicarcher]

get in the way of science...

Lily, we need to talk about your priorities

[methodologicalanalyst]

what priorities
i have to see whats outside of my house
i saw sciencey things

[ataraxicarcher]

Wait, what?

what? sciencey as in i need to wantonly and dangerously experiment on these things or sciencey as in giant beakers or something out of honey i shrunk the kids?

[methodologicalanalyst]

like giant beakers yes!
and test tubes, all sorts of sciencey equipment...
but some of them seem to be lost in what looks like canyons
its a literal desert out there!

-Well, okay, maybe 'desert' wasn't the right term. There's plenty of other terrain out there, but the canyons and 'desert' just seem to stick out more to you.-

[ataraxicarcher]

so like the grand canyon and Bill Nye's lab probably had a baby? /allspeculationofcourse

[tetchytmesis]

Oh, finally. You were beginning to think she was dead.

lily. what. the. ham.
am i. talking. to. your. dead. ghost. right now. or what.

[methodologicalanalyst]

heehee, im still alive!
i just forgot to get back on when i got here and got attacked by those mean old imps
ive been managing just fine though

[tetchytmesis]

oh. yeah. you just. forgot.
cool.
no. big. deal.
though. ill. need. a. refund. for. all. the. hours. i. spent.
waiting. on. your. cheese ball.

Read: Worried.

youll. provide. right.

[methodologicalanalyst]

it was hard to remember when i had to focus on a buttload of imps closing in on me constantly
but... sure ill provide the cheese ball

[tetchytmesis]

what.
no. thats. not. what. i. meant. at all.
but. never. mine. who. cares.
moving. on.
so.
you. ok.

[methodologicalanalyst]

yeah im fine!
really
these imps are really stupid
they keep falling for the same tricks

[tetchytmesis]

keep. it. that. way.
any. unfortunate. accidents. from. now. on.
should. be. deliberately. un. fortunate. for. the. other. side.
not. you.
well. not. us.
i. think. theyre. all. stupid. though.
not. sure. if. thats. a. good. thing.
why. fight. the. stupid.

[methodologicalanalyst]

well theyre not all stupid
ive heard there are some larger ones that are tougher and smarter
scientifically speaking anyway
but theyre not leaving me alone
they keep flooding my house
can you help me do something about that??

[tetchytmesis]

sure.
anything. in. specific. you. want. me. to. do.
besides. blow. them. all. up.

[twintimes]

oh hey!!
It's been A whIle!!
how's It goIng..?
