-- CURRENT blackoutEtude [BE] RIGHT NOW opened memo INFODUMP --
since I can't believe that most of you
still don't even know who your teammates are
(except for maybe the humans but come on that's easy)
I think it's pretty safe to assume most of you also haven't been doing much to figure out how this game works
and why some of you suck so bad at it
although really
there's no helping it in some cases
fair warning, this is long as shit because I've ~actually~ been looking shit up about this game
so buckle in kiddos
time to kick this steam-powered information locomotive into proverbial gear

You are now KAPRAO OCIMUM, and you have been pretty quiet lately! You believe in being quiet, for most of the part. You don't think you've done anything that's really worth announcing to anyone -- you've found your second gate, and you've already worked out a way to reach it that you hope works. But you're not going yet, because you still have things to do and you are waiting for a visitor.
So instead you are here to talk about FLOWERS.
...Well, sort of. You know no one here is actually interested in flowers, but you are here to talk about it because the game seems to have seen fit to provide game things in the form of flowers.
You've taken a picture of them with your husktop, so when you open the memo you attach the file to it. You don't expect anyone to actually know what specific flowers they are, but their colours should be VERY FAMILIAR. Especially to your own sessionmates, considering they're theirs.
( Kaprao: Open memo )
After a very good point was brought up, you decide to add to your memo, because this is also important shit.
a|so
i don't think most of us know how many aspects and ro|es there are in this game?
and what they are specifica||y
so i'd appreciate it if you can share what you do know about a|| that

-- artfulTransgressor [AT] RIGHT NOW opened memo on board so done with playing blind. --
AT: alright so
AT: dunno how many of you actually open your sponge clots when cs is talking
AT: i wouldnt really blame you if you just sort of let that shit wash oVer you without bothering to process any of it
AT: but belieVe it or not he actually had something important to say about sequences a memo or two back
AT: specifically that all our planets may be connected through our gates
AT: probably just through our own indiVidual sessions but honestly who the fuck knows at this point
AT: but he also said that despite working out there is a sequence
AT: he has no fucking idea what the sequence is
AT: or eVen who is in what session
AT: and you know who else doesnt know
AT: me
AT: i kinda wonder if ANYBODY fucking knows
AT: this memo is to remedy that shit right now
AT: so
AT: lets get this shit sorted out
AT: i want you
AT: no matter who the fuck you are eVen if weVe neVer talked

AT: along with who your serVer and client players are
AT: i dont care if your serVer and client haVe already spoken up by the way
AT: you damn well sound off anyway
AT: this is as much to get people straight as sequences
AT: and it gets eVeryone checking in
AT: if we get eVeryone to do this then we should be able to figure out the sequences
AT: along with how many sessions weVe got here
AT: and once weVe got the sequences and sessions straight maybe we can come up with some kinda plan
AT: ill eVen set up a format
AT: its gonna be serVer - you - client
AT: so in my case kaprao - lyn - zirreh
AT: as far as i know the three of us are all part of the original session phaest started
AT: were gonna call that the alpha session for claritys sake
AT: i know theres another troll session that sorta squeezed in
AT: well call that beta
AT: and so on down the line if theres more i honestly dont know at this point
AT: theres a human session as well i know that much
AT: theyre just gonna be the human session
AT: if theres more than one of their sessions too i guess well figure out names
AT: but does eVeryone get the idea of what were trying to figure out here

So you have recently learnt that your half your session somehow went and died one way or another and you are all POSSIBLY REALLY BONED now. For some reason a part of you isn't really surprised that it's come down to this, but then again you are already used to bad things happening.
But that is besides the point! You are going to go and try RECRUITING NEW PLAYERS and hopefully avert everyone dying horribly. You have some people in mind, which is to say there are people you'd really rather not die from meteors because they don't deserve it. You just have to...figure out how to explain that it's either a potentially really dangerous game or imminent death by meteor.
Damn.

You made it. You're in the game, and your environment changed. When you peak out of the window you smell the fresh air of adventures which await you. There's only one problem: You can't get out. Your place has been put up somewhere where it makes it IMPOSSIBLE TO VENTURE OUT. You seem to be stuck to your home. You know that Gwen has to help you to go through a shiny thing about your home, however she's been too busy to get back to you.
No panic, there are a lot of things to do in the meantime! The first point of order is to keep the IMPS in line. You have to remind them over and over again of the house rules you established. Really, the have no common sense! You strife'd a lot because they don't listen to you properly and don't want to follow your rules. At least punishing them gives you a lot of shiny GRIST. It also makes you feel good to act out justice.
Having a lot of grist makes it easier for you to ALCHEMISE TO YOUR HEART'S CONTENT. Gwen won't tell you to stop playing around anymore. Your room is filled with a lot of new things, but of course you can't go out without preparing yourself! With a new green outfit - a tribute to one of the MOST ADVENTUROUS HERO there was - you're ready to face your biggest adventure to date! Maybe you should have alchimised a sword and a shield to go with it, but your current LASERBAT is just too cool not to use. If anyone writes down your tale it'll be named after you and not the princess you're going to rescue, though. Yes, 'Legend of Eric the Great' sounds pretty rad.
This BEE GHOST THING around you still worries you. You can't think of anyone great who had a bee as their godfairy. No, this won't do, you have to fix it! But how? It has to be merged with something super cool. You look through your comics and video games, until you get the idea of the year! Flash stepping to your wardrobe, you yank its door open. Your trusty partner who has been fighting and scaring all the monsters in your wardrobe awaits you. You get out your beloved LIFE-SIZED BATMAN CUT OUT and shove it into the bee. BATMANSPRITE looks good and talks in a husky voice, which pleases you greatly. You're ready to go!
Though after doing all that, there's still no sign from your server player. You also wonder where your uncle is. Boredom and impatience is starting to set up. It's time to catch up with your friends! You've been too busy for a while to talk to them. Time to start up your APPLETOP. Yeah, you need another computer device which doesn't make you hungry when staring at it.

You would very much like to do so! But unfortunately, that isn't exactly in the cards at the moment. Or at all. You ignore CARDSPRITE's fluttery yammering for a moment and sit down hard at the base of a large tree to press your palms over your eyes.
You take a deep breath and take out your laptop, fingers drifting reluctantly from key to key as you desperately try to stay calm.

Oh, that's a thing you're TRYING TO DO. It's not working very well. Meteors are still coming down in the distance, and each one is killing more and more. The surface of the ocean was even on fire briefly. The currents are strong around your island, and you've discovered that dead things will float right into the water entrance to your hive because of them.
And get stuck. It's disgusting. You've spent most of the night clearing them out and even after a bath you feel FILTHY from the charred, mangled corpses that aren't even edible. Penguindad is freaking out too, and huddled miserably on the stone pile. You want to be there too, but you need to check on your--the people you talk to.
Oh. The computer has started up.

You've just heard about what could be the SALVATION of you and your friends in the form of a GAME. You know very little about it, a state of affairs you intend to rectify IMMEDIATELY. You can't plan ahead properly if you don't know what you're trying to get ahead in. Knowing hope has some sort of tangible form now means that you have a target that you can DOGGEDLY PURSUE until it's within your manicured grasp.
Everyone is going to be alright if you get your way. And you're excellent at getting it when you mean to.
Time to get to work.
gyrateConnoisseur [GC] at ?:?? opened memo on board PSA RE: The End of the World and You
GC: If you haven't been pulled up to speed, let me be brief.
GC: The world might very well end, today.
GC: You've now been briefed.
GC: No, I'm not on anything, no I will not share with the rest of the class. Yes, I realize that it's crazy. Really, I do.
GC: I've just heard something about a game, and how it can save us all, and seeing as how a lot of things have been getting around, lately, I can't have been the second to hear about it. The first being the one who told me about it, obviously.
GC: But there's not a lot I know about it, so, would those in the know twinform the rest of us?
GC: Look. To the skeptics, I get it, I'm still sceptical, but I've done the research, and evidence doesn't lie. Whatever is going on with the meteors, it's not good, and it's not letting up.
GC: Just come play a merry, little game with your friends. If I'm wrong, you'll all gain an anecdote about how they went crazy today and will have the awesome opportunity of beating that dead horse into the ground for months to come. I'm even prepared to pretend to get ruffled over it every time. Won't that be grand? That'll be grand, won't it? It's a win-win situation.
GC: I'm assuming that you're all giving some kind of affirmative, and am now moving on.
GC: I'm told that this configuration is not a free-for-all, but circular. I can't argue with that development choice, but it will take some planning to make sure that everyone is literally kept in the loop.
GC: If I'm interpreting this correctly, who is linked up to whom, already, if anyone?
GC: Finally, when's the last anyone's heard from Chrysi? When has anyone heard from Chrysi last, finally?

At a decidedly LATER time than usual, you STAGGER, almost LIMP into your room and flop onto a chair with all the grace of a WOUNDED ELEPHANT. The chair feels ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE, and you can't help but GROAN as you realize how much EXCRUCIATING PAIN you are feeling. You think you're probably BLEEDING or carrying some BROKEN BONES, but you wouldn't dare SAY that.
Your GUARDIAN, if you could call them that, seemed as willing to MERCILESSLY BRUTALIZE YOU as they were were to PROVIDE WORLDLY ADVICE. Times like this make you wonder if there is any sort of BOND there at all. You try to DISTRACT YOURSELF from that sort of EMO BULLCRAP. You're BETTER THAN THAT.
You SMACK your computer a few times until it turns on, about FIVE MINUTES SLOWER than you'd have liked. If there was one thing that would make you feel better, it would be LAUGHING AT THE MISFORTUNE OF OTHERS. And then you vaguely remember some kind of mention of a GAME. What better way to get some LAUGHS than to TROLL THE HELL OUT OF PEOPLE?
You can't help but SMILE LIKE AN EVIL MASTERMIND.

Hurriedly, you ditch your conversation with Bharal to go and see if the meteors you'd seen before have drawn any closer. You scurry out onto the balcony of your HIVE, fully prepared to retrieve your ASTRONOMOSCOPE - but you realize almost immediately that it's not needed.
The forest surrounding your hive's plateau is on fire. The blue trees are completely going up in flames, and the scent of burnt wood is stinging your sniffnode. The meteors are now visible to the naked eye from your viewpoint; still, you think that there may be quite some time left...
...until a meteor crashes down right in the middle of the plateau, much too close for comfort. Your LUSUS, who has been peacefully resting on the bottom level of your HIVE, is shaken from her slumber and promptly gets up to go inspect it. As you watch the giant hopbeast emerge from her shelter, the full realization of the danger you're in comes down on you.
You're scared. You know what you have to do, but you're still scared. In any case, you'll be reporting back to Bharal now. You quickly make your way back inside and return to your HUSKTOP.
um
wewp
a meteow just cwashed down neaw nikniks hive
and de neawby fowest is on fiwe
so maybe we shouwd twy and get dis wunning now huh
Your hands shaking with anticipation, you double-click the scrib.exe program again.
Surprisingly, the game doesn't crash this time.
oh
oh OwO
niknik finks its wowking now
can bhabha twy and wun it yet

Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick.
On a regular day, the numerous TIMEPIECES you have collected that are now hanging on your wall would delight you and calm you down. After all, you love clocks! They're simply amazing things that you can't imagine living without.
But today is no regular day. Because as they tick down every so calmly, you're just reminded of the fact that supposedly, today is the END OF THE WORLD.
You're still not sure if you honestly believe it, but the thought makes you nervous. Plus, there is this game that Phaest sent you, and supposed Chrysi used it somehow to enter another world? You're still really confused on that part, but hey, if it means SAVING LIFE AS YOU KNOW IT, then you're totally up for it!
You also can't help but FRET ENDLESSLY over where DAD is. He's supposed to be driving back home after showing one of his exhibitions...you pray that he gets back home sometime soon, and also hope that he won't be mad that you're using his private internet connection usually used for SUPER SECRET SCULPTOR MEETINGS to play the game and pester your friends. You usually go and use the connection down by the MONET MUSEUM, not this one. It's for a good cause though, and really, like internet would mean a thing after the world has ended!
Still ANXIOUS as ever (you turn away from the clocks because now they're just making you more nervous than you wish to be), you log into PESTERCHUM, waiting to see if that GREEN-COLORED KID pops up. You think he might be your CLIENT player for the game, if you recall the instructions correctly.
Also, it might help to talk to your friends and CALM DOWN SOME. It would do you no good to play the game in the state you're in.

Sorry, what was that? You weren't listening. You are too busy WANTING TO PLAY THIS GAME ALREADY.
It's not as though you have A WHOLE LOT ELSE TO DO. It will be another night or two before you need to make the TWENTY-MILE ROUND TRIP to the nearest city to steal supplies. (Actually, you're stocked up enough to go FOR QUITE A BIT LONGER than a few nights, but those are EMERGENCY STORES and you really shouldn't dip into them unnecessarily.) And aside from STEALING THINGS, you really don't have much to occupy your time. You have NO LUSUS TO CARE FOR, since yours was killed by a passing scalebeast OVER FIVE SWEEPS AGO, and your only willing contact with THE WORLD OUTSIDE YOUR CAVE is through your trusty (stolen) HUSKTOP. Which you've been on for hours. You're trying to take a break, since A LOT OF FRUSTRATING NOTHING IS HAPPENING ANYWAY.
Perhaps there is something else around your hive to keep you occupied?
