AVISPA: Cease puzzling nightmares, yes.
All things considered, things are going great! You've successfully prototyped your sprite once, your lusus is still alive and protected in your hive, you have more puzzles than you could ever ask for, and you'd finally decided to rest. After some planning, you'd decided that some exploration of LOSAR was in order and after plotting out a path, a plan, and preparing back-up plans for your plan the only remaining thing to do was to sleep.
So you slept. That was your first mistake.
Your eyes opened to neither the golden, bright moon you'd heard about nor the darkened, twilight moon. Instead, you are somewhere you'd never imagined even in your wildest dreams. Bright, blue skies with fluffy white clouds. You stand before an endless, clean landscape of white and black with green trees. You've never, ever laid eyes on living trees, though as awing as they are the skies above draw your eyes to them and don't allow you to look away.
That was your second mistake.
You'd only seen clear, blue skies for only a few moments twice before, when the darkened clouds you were so familiar with parted for only a moment. But the clouds here were fascinating, amazing, and... there... was something in them. You couldn't tear your eyes away, especially when the blur of a troll appeared.
That was your third mistake.
The troll hopped around, making short work of what you assumed to be Imps. She was using her arms, no, her sleeves as weapons to utterly decimate her foes. There was something familiar, something that made you think you knew her but you just couldn't place it. Sleeves for weapons, crescent horns, no glasses, and a very, very rage-driven fighting style. As you watched, you were paying so much attention to the clouds that you don't watch where you're going...
That was your fourth mistake.
You sit bolt upright, woken pre-emptively from your slumber, and the very first thing you do is open a memo. This was puzzling.
-- apiaryCryptonaut [AC] RIGHT NOW opened memo that dream was scary! --
AC: I h4d 4 very... puzzling 4nd confusing dre4m!
AC: It w4sn't on the... um, wh4t were the... n4mes of the moons.
AC: Um um um um
AC: I know them I... just c4n't remember, no.
AC: Oh, um, Prospit, yes!
AC: 4nd um, I think... the other one was... Derse, m4ybe, yes yes!
AC: Um, I'm very very... very very confused, yes.
AC: Bec4use, um, I dre4med... 4nd it w4sn't 4t... 4ll wh4t I thought... I w4s expecting, no!
AC: There were trees, yes!
AC: Living, green, t4ll trees!
AC: I've never seen trees... 4ll green like th4t!
AC: They were re4lly, re4lly... re4lly, re4lly pretty, yes!
AC: OH! 4nd I s4w... 4 troll, but I... don't know who it... w4s, not 4t 4ll.
AC: But she h4d, um... clothing, sort of, um... on her 4rms, yes!
AC: 4nd she w4s super... strong 4nd be4ting up... 4 lot of imps!
AC: It w4s 4 dre4m... within my own dre4m!

i dont u5ua11y remem6er dream5 6ut mo5t are pretty gri5ly
fighting for my life
maiming and 6lood5hed
you know
the u5ual
i5 your 5opor 5ome kind of high efficiency mix and how did you get it
i wouldnt mind more dream5 like that one
no subject
....
well thIs Is A bIt AwkwArd
but It certAInly explAIns why our dreAms work dIfferently
beIng dIfferent specIes And All..
no subject
are you confe55ing to 6eing a white 5he11ed alien
i5 that what5 happening here
no subject
but thAt works too I suppose
so yes??
Durian: Drastically misunderstand
5o how doe5 your moon5 internet interface with our5 and how long have your people 6een in contact
and what i5 the deal with coddling 5tranger5 over tiny injurie5
no subject
sorry, mIsunderstAndIng..
ActuAlly
I'm not from prospIt
I'm from eArth
dIfferent AlIen specIes sorry, nothIng to do wIth the moonfolk
Also, not pArtIculArly shelled
humAns Are pretty squIshy In All
And not reAlly monochrome
oh my god i wrote a response almost a week ago where did it go
only one out of three of the de5criptor5 i u5ed and you 5aid ye5
5o you are an alien
6ut not a carapace alien
a human
not 5he11ed
> not monochrome -< whatever that mean5
and youre a player in a different 5e55ion of the game
=:|
that doe5nt even make 5en5e
what are the chance5 of meteor5 de5troying two different planet5 at the 5ame time
I have no idea but this one works!
I fIgured before you Assume I'm A blAck-shelled AlIen I'd rule thAt out too
As fAr As I know neIther of those ActuAlly even know About the gAme lIke we do
let Alone plAy It
I've never seen suffIcIent technology on prospIt but grAnted I wAsn't lookIng All thAt thoroughly
but I'm gettIng off trAck here
no It doesn't mAke much sense
neIther does the fAct thAt we're evidently from completely dIfferent cultures And stIll somehow communIcAte vIA some chAt clIent
but in the first one durian angrily demanded to know if ria knew what nazis were
i appreciate that youre 6eing clear a6out it now though
...
communication over our chat client5 doe5nt 5urpri5e me
i think ive talked with an adult or two on tro11ian
5o may6e a 5hip i5 clo5e enough to your planet for you to piggy6ack on their communication 5y5tem5
with 5ufficient programming it could even 6e tran5lating for u5
i wouldnt 5wear to that idea though
i havent thought of any 5ufficient explanation for why we have meteor5 or tho5e dream5 in common =:/
l m a o beautiful. Oh well.
especIAlly If It's, y'know, AlIen
but I'm not thAt good wIth technology AnywAy so who knows
so do you hAve An explAnAtIon for how we both hAve the gAme yet?
becAuse AppArently one of you guys mAde It but someone wholly else creAted It here??
:'( i shed a tear for the loss of that moment
6ut they wouldnt hook it up with our tro11ian
5ome of u5 are pretty 5tupid
wed ju5t 6e giving you information too
5o i dont know
it doe5nt make 5en5e
=:o
are you 5ure they didnt ju5t copy the file5 from our people?
And now I did too, it really is quite the tragedy.
I don't know where the gAme cAme from but wouldn't It Imply the communIcAtIon wAs somehow prevIously estAblIshed?? And In thAt cAse, why would Any of you gIve the gAme to us If nobody knew we'd need It to survIve??
ria why so critical of his theory, don't you know only trolls could come up with this solution?
communication ha5 6een open at lea5t that long
...
i dont know
you figure it out
a5k the earlie5t people in your chain who ha5 it
if theyre even 5ti11 alive
she will just continue to throw logic at it and hoping something will make sense.
A whIle Ago
I'm not sure you were the fIrst troll I tAlked to eIther
....
I suppose I'll Ask chrysI, then
or mAybe cherIour
we'll see If they've got AnythIng..
it probably won't, but good luck to her
doe5 >- year -< mean anything to you
they 5hould
the fir5t per5on in the game 5hould know where the file came from
if they dont then theyre 5tupid for in5ta11ing a my5teriou5 file
...well, won't know until you try.
A yeAr Is A unIt of tIme
It's the tIme the eArth needs to go full-cIrcle Around Its sun
And we count our Age In yeArs, too
It's About hAlf of, I thInk you guys sAy A "sweep"??
yeAh.. It's eIther thAt or perhAps the fIrst person who got the fIles doesn't necessArIly hAve to be the fIrst to plAy
we'll see
and try again
and when do your eye5 fi11 in
oh may6e
5o you think they got around it 6y having 5omeone el5e in5ta11 and watching what happened to them
no subject
I don't know honestly
I meAn I never expected It to be AnythIng more thAn A cool vIdeogAme
so why hAve someone else testrun It for me, see??
no subject
i dont mean that you te5ted it like that
you heard 5torie5 a6out it and tru5ted whoever you got it from
the 5ource of your 5ource doe5nt have that excu5e though
5omeone had to 6e the fir5t to try it
and if the creator wa5 5mart
they had 5omeone el5e 6e fir5t to te5t
no subject
I guess so, yes, but In the end, I wonder If thAt dId them Any good
no subject
do you need to wear your 5ym6ol when your color5 already vi5i6le?
they pro6a6ly at lea5t didnt die 6efore te11ing people what they knew
they might 6e 5ti11 alive for you to contact with que5tion5
no subject
And whAt do you meAn by "your colour"..??
I don't know
I reAlly doubt Any of my frIends ActuAlly creAted thIs thIng
no subject
like mine i5 >- thi5 5hape -<
6ecau5e 5ome tro11 rea11y did
6ut your friend5 5hould have friend5 who claimed they made it
the file5 came from 5omewhere
no subject
we're All pretty much equAls, ActuAlly
And- wAIt, hemo meAns blood, so you're tAlkIng About blood colours relAted to cAste??
how strAnge..
well, there's no dIfferent blood colours here eIther, so the whole Issue Is null And voId
they could just hAve frIends who got It from somewhere
unless those people wAIted too long to enter And dIdn't mAke It Into the gAme, In whIch cAse they're deAd
no subject
rea11y?
6ut you do type in a different color than the other one5 who may6e werent tro115
who lead5 if youre a11 equal5 anyway
friend5 of friend5 of friend5
at the end of 5ome degree of friend5 i5 the origin
