tfw geri fucks up

rryPendulum [MP] began pestering envisioningScholar [ES]
@mulberryPendulist
Hey Zachary
← Geriah has quit (Ping timeout: 195 seconds)
envisioningScholar
Hello.
@mulberryPendulist
Can I ask you something?
envisioningScholar
Sure.
@mulberryPendulist
So, I'm going to apologize in advance because if I'm wrong, this will just sound sort of weird, but if I'm right then it's going to sound incredibly creepy
So, sorry about this
envisioningScholar
Ok...
@mulberryPendulist
Are you sitting at your computer wearing a black shirt, grey shorts and... black boots, I think?
envisioningScholar
Why would you guess so?
@mulberryPendulist
Er, well
@mulberryPendulist
See, I bought this game online, because it looked really cool and I thought we could all play it together and get to know each other some more and maybe figure out what the roleplayers
((whoops))
*roleplayers's deal is!
So I installed it, it asked me for a 'client handle,' I put in yours and now I think I can see into your bedroom
envisioningScholar
A. How would we even know what the roleplayers were doing? B. Why would you put in my Handle?
@mulberryPendulist
See, that's why I wanted to play the game, so that we could get to know them and each other better and maybe they'd tell us what's up with their roleplaying.
I actually put Elric's handle in first, but his was already taken, apparently? So I put in yours because you seem cool and not a cryptic roleplayer
envisioningScholar
Did you know in advance that you would "Be able to see into their rooms"?
@mulberryPendulist
No!
Not at all!
→ Geriah has joined
@mulberryPendulist
I definitely would have said something first if I'd known that!
envisioningScholar
Then how did you think you'd be able to know what the roleplayer's were actually doing?
@mulberryPendulist
Er, I was thinking they would tell us
Geriah
((Sorry,  I had to fo something, im back now))
@mulberryPendulist
((No worries =D))
envisioningScholar
((It's cool.))
@mulberryPendulist
Because if we got to know each other, then they'd trust us and tell us what was up!
envisioningScholar
Got it.
@mulberryPendulist
But yeah
This I didn't expect
Uh, I mentioned the bar at the top of my screen, right?
envisioningScholar
No...
@mulberryPendulist
Oh drats, I thought I did
envisioningScholar
Could you prove that you can see my room.
? not .
Geriah
((Test, did i desyc?))
envisioningScholar
((Yes.))
@mulberryPendulist
Let's see here
((You good Geri?))
Geriah
((Anyways, continue))
@mulberryPendulist
((Awesome))
You've got... lots and lots of books
You've got blue sheets on your bed?
Navy blue, I guess would be the colour?
envisioningScholar
Ok, what am I doing now?
@mulberryPendulist
You just... jumped and fell on the floor
Did that not hurt?
envisioningScholar
No. It did hurt.
One more thing..
What book is currently on my desk?
← Geriah has quit (Quit: Web client closed)
@mulberryPendulist
Can't see from the way I am now, but I think there might be a zoom function...
Ah, there we go!
→ Geriah2 has joined
@mulberryPendulist
Ulysses!
Cool, you like mythology?
envisioningScholar
Well then.
A bit.
Just something to pass the time.
Anyways, you just passed the stalker test.
@mulberryPendulist
That's neat ^-^
Sorry =c
I'm not even sure where I'm looking from
Do you have a security camera in your room? My angle's from the upper corner of your bedroom
envisioningScholar
I guess I really have no other choice but to believe you, considering the lack of proof on the opposite side.
No.
@mulberryPendulist
Strange
envisioningScholar
I'm not paranoid.
@mulberryPendulist
I wouldn't blame you with you were, you've had some weird stuff going on lately
This included
Oh!
The bar I mentioned earlier!
I guess it must be the game's UI?
envisioningScholar
So what about the UI?
@mulberryPendulist
It has buttons that are labelled 'Deploy,' 'Revise,' 'Select,' and a few other things
envisioningScholar
Well those are simple.
@mulberryPendulist
One tab's got these odd-looking machines under it
Should I try to select something?
That seems the least dangerous
envisioningScholar
Try "Revise".
@mulberryPendulist
Sure!
Geriah2
Let the house-fucking up commence
What do you revise?
envisioningScholar
((Wait!))
((What about my parents?))
Geriah2
Ihhh
@mulberryPendulist
((I'm about to fuck up your door, so that shouldn't be a concern for the moment))
envisioningScholar
((Ok.))
@mulberryPendulist
((They won't bother you at least =D))
- Alba intends click on a bookcase, but misses and deletes the door instead -
envisioningScholar
Shit, where'd my door go?!
What did you do?
@mulberryPendulist
Oh shit
I didn't mean to!
Geriah2
((You cant dlete in sburb, revise is to add space))
@mulberryPendulist
((Shit
((Uh))
Geriah2
((Like rose  did in the corner))
@mulberryPendulist
((In that case, can I copy and paste a bookcase over the doorway?))
envisioningScholar
That would require build grist.
@mulberryPendulist
((I'll be honest, it's been a long-ass time since I've read the early parts of the story
envisioningScholar
((Me too.))
Geriah2
And you can only do it if you have alchemized the bookcase
@mulberryPendulist
((Damn))
Hm
envisioningScholar
Just add some space anywhere.
@mulberryPendulist
Alrighty!
envisioningScholar
And... Roleplaying commence!
Geriah2
From now onwards, enclose IC speech in quotes
envisioningScholar
Got it.
@mulberryPendulist
Will do!
Rewinding to the last moment, Alba grabs the wall beneath the window and drags it out a few feet
envisioningScholar
What the fuck?
@mulberryPendulist
Holy shit something actually happened
Geriah2
The wall expands, and your build grist drops from 20 to 15
It somehow denies the laws of physics
@mulberryPendulist
"Oh hey, something happened other than what happened to your wall"
"Apparently your build grist went down? Whatever that is"
envisioningScholar
Try deploy.
Just put stuff in my room.
@mulberryPendulist
((Hey, thought, can we just lead any chatspeak with our handle abreviations? So 'MP:' and 'ES:' in this case))
envisioningScholar
Now where else.
Sure.
ES: Try deploy.
@mulberryPendulist
((Cool =D))
Geriah2
Yeah that'd work too
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Sure!
Alba clicks on the Deploy button
envisioningScholar
ES: Just drop whatever it has in my room.
Geriah2
Alba, roll sleight of hand.
??
Did i DC again?
envisioningScholar
No...
Geriah2
Lolk
envisioningScholar
I think she's just thinking of what to deploy.
@mulberryPendulist
No, sorry, getting my sheet up and looking for the instructions I copied down on how to properly roll on here, sorry!
envisioningScholar
Oh okay.
Geriah2
Do !roll
So like
!roll 1d20+2
GameServ
Geriah2 rolled 1d20: 12  <Total: 12(+2) = 14>
Geriah2
Like that
@mulberryPendulist
Gotcha
Geriah2
Celt with your sleight of hand mid
@mulberryPendulist
!roll 1d20+3
GameServ
mulberryPendulist rolled 1d20: 17  <Total: 17(+3) = 20>
envisioningScholar
What, how do we do that?
Geriah2
What do you deploy?
Also do !roll dice+mod
So like
!roll 1d29*9
GameServ
Geriah2 rolled 1d29: 8  <Total: 8(*9) = 72>
Geriah2
Shit
That was multiplication
I hit the went key
envisioningScholar
!roll 1d20+1
GameServ
envisioningScholar rolled 1d20: 10  <Total: 10(+1) = 11>
envisioningScholar
Got it.
@mulberryPendulist
=D
envisioningScholar
Thanks!
Geriah2
What do you deploy?
@mulberryPendulist
Let's start with deploying the Cruxtruder
Can it fit in the spot Alba just made?
Geriah2
Hmm, how big is your room, zach?
No
The totem lathe can
But the Cruxtruder is pretty big
@mulberryPendulist
MP: I tried putting down something called a Cruxtruder, but it didn't fit
envisioningScholar
ES: Hm.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: I'm gonna try the totem lathe instead
envisioningScholar
ES: Okay.
← Geriah2 has quit (Quit: Web client closed)
@mulberryPendulist
Pfft, poor Geri
envisioningScholar
Wow.
@mulberryPendulist
Think it's safe to put down the totem lathe anyway?
→ Geriah2 has joined
@mulberryPendulist
Ah, there you are =D
So Alba is trying to place the Totem Lathe
Geriah2
Yeah, im on my phone so its a lil wonky
@mulberryPendulist
Fair enough =D
Should i roll sleight of hand again?
Geriah2
Ypu succesfully place the totem lathe. Without crushing anything
@mulberryPendulist
MP: I think it worked this time!
envisioningScholar
ES: Yeah. What is this?
@mulberryPendulist
Something called a totem lathe
Geriah2
I counted your roll from earlier.
@mulberryPendulist
Awesome =D
Shoot, that should be
Geriah2
I should be back on my computer soon.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Something called a totem lathe
MP: I don't know what it does
envisioningScholar
ES: Hm.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: I wonder if this game has tooltips
envisioningScholar
ES: Mabye.
Geriah2
Unfortunately, it seems this game has no tutorial of any form
What a ripoff.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: If there is I can't find them -_-
envisioningScholar
ES: Well then.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: In any case, there's still two other things that I can deploy right now, I think
envisioningScholar
Try those.
ES: Try those.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: I'll have to move stuff to put down one of them
envisioningScholar
ES: Okay, what?
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Probably your bed, to be honest
MP:Maybe your desk or some bookshelves
envisioningScholar
ES: Okay not a big deal as long as you put them back.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: I will do my best! ^o^
envisioningScholar
ES: I spent a while alphabetizing those.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Is there any place I can put them in the mean time?
envisioningScholar
Try the space you made.
ES: Try the space you made.
@mulberryPendulist
I think that's where the totem lathe went
MP: Oh wait!
MP: Here, let's try this!
Alba attempts to put the Alchemiter down in front of the door
envisioningScholar
Does it work?
Geriah2
Unfortunately, the alchemiter is freaking huge
@mulberryPendulist
I... guess I'll roll sleight of hand again?
Dang
Geriah2
but pleas
Yeah
John needed his entire balcony
@mulberryPendulist
Right, forgot about that
Geriah2
i hope you have a large place to put it
@mulberryPendulist
!roll 1d20+3
GameServ
mulberryPendulist rolled 1d20: 5  <Total: 5(+3) = 8>
@mulberryPendulist
Ooh, not so good this time
Geriah2
Insteead of placing the alchemiter
You throw it through his wall
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Oh shit
envisioningScholar
ES: What. The. Fuck.
Geriah2
You can hear what sounds like several walls collapsing as a godawful screech is heard
envisioningScholar
Did. You. Do.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: I'm sorry, I didn't mean to!
MP: Hang on, I'll fix it!
envisioningScholar
Zach runs downstairs, ignoring his computer.
@mulberryPendulist
Alba attempts to drag and drop some wall over the spots she broke
She also discovers the pan function and begins looking around Zach's house
MP: Oh hey, I can see other places in your house too!
MP: ...Not that it matters, since you're not at your computer right now
@mulberryPendulist
Since Zach isn't around to talk to, Alba tries to find where the alchemiter wound up
← Geriah2 has quit (Ping timeout: 195 seconds)
envisioningScholar
Yaaaaaaaay.
@mulberryPendulist
Pffft
envisioningScholar
I was just about to ask about what happened to Zach's parents.
→ geriah has joined
geriah
k
Can you do me a favor
And tell me exactly what
is in the trajectory of the alchemiter
Also do you have a basement
@mulberryPendulist
Uh
envisioningScholar
Nope.
@mulberryPendulist
Probably through the wall with Zach's bedroom door in it?
What's past there?
envisioningScholar
Just the bottom floor which contains the kitchen/dining area and master bedroom and the bathroom.
Top floor is another bathroom and Zach's room.
Small house.
@mulberryPendulist
Gotcha
geriah
Kay
What is the floor below that
envisioningScholar
Nothing.
Just first and second floor.
geriah
oh
envisioningScholar
No basement/attic.
geriah
So
What is below the bathroom?
The
Other bathroom
Top floor one
envisioningScholar
Why not?
No...
The dining room.
geriah
Well
In that case
The alchemiter goes right through your toliet
And lands square on the dining table
Continue.
envisioningScholar
And there's the scream of parents.
geriah
Yes, probably that too.
@mulberryPendulist
Where are the parents?
envisioningScholar
Probably cleaning up the dishes.
@mulberryPendulist
Dang, too bad they weren't in the bedroom, could have blocked them in
geriah
Don't feel bad maverick, my character got her roof and basement both demolished in entry as well
@mulberryPendulist
Alba attempts to fix the damage made to the walls, at least
envisioningScholar
Zach ends up in the kitchen and collapses in relief seeing his parents not squished.
@mulberryPendulist
And also attempts to close the floor over the fountain where Zach's toilet used to be
geriah
You do a makeshift job of repairing the walls. You are pretty sure the toliet will never be functional again, and you cant exactly clean up the debris, but you patch up the holes and expend another 5 grist
You have ten grist remaining
@mulberryPendulist
Alba hopes that doesn't mean anything bad for the future
In the mean time, since Zach isn't present to ask, Alba moves his bed to the roof and tries to put the cruxtruder in his bedroom
geriah
Roll sleight of hand.
@mulberryPendulist
Right, sorry!
envisioningScholar
How do Zach parents react to him showing up?
@mulberryPendulist
!roll 1d20+3
GameServ
mulberryPendulist rolled 1d20: 15  <Total: 15(+3) = 18>
@mulberryPendulist
Not bad this time
geriah
You succesfully place the machine without almost killing two people
@mulberryPendulist
Woo hoo!
MP: Hey Zach, any chance you have Pesterchum on your phone and your phone on you?
MP: I hope you do
envisioningScholar
Nope.
@mulberryPendulist
Dang
Alright then, Alba picks up a chair and starts nudging Zach with it
envisioningScholar
I'm suspecting sleight of hand.
geriah
You think you are at least moderately proficent with the controls now. You won't require sleight of hand anymore, at least for small stuff
envisioningScholar
Oh cool.
@mulberryPendulist
I keep forgetting about that TT
envisioningScholar
At least I won't get implaed.
@mulberryPendulist
Probably
envisioningScholar
Impaled.
Zach looks around extremely confused, then realizes what's happening and hops back into his chair.
ES: What do want?
@mulberryPendulist
MP: I, uh, put the cruxtruder into your bedroom?
MP: You probably noticed since it's where your bed used to be
MP: I moved that to the roof for the moment, by the way
envisioningScholar
Zach didn't really notice anything, considering the fact his parents could've died.
@mulberryPendulist
Alba didn't really pick up on that, to be entirely honest
I'm not sure she knows your parents were there at all
envisioningScholar
He looks around sees that, and despite knowing he can't really do anything, he grabs War and Peace of his nearest bookshelf and starts hitting on the Cruxtruder.
He's pretty mad at this game.
@mulberryPendulist
No doubt
geriah
The cap on the cruxtruder seems to be wiggling. Unfortunately, you bet you have to turn the wheel.
You don't think you can move it with your still rusty mouse pointer skills with this game
envisioningScholar
He continues hitting it in a rage, not really caring.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Zach? The thing on the top of the tube is moving, do you want to do something about that/
?
envisioningScholar
Zach figures that out in a second and attempts to turn it.
I'm guessing strength roll?
geriah
Yep
envisioningScholar
!roll 1d20-1
GameServ
envisioningScholar rolled 1d20: 1  <Total: 1(-1) = 0>
envisioningScholar
Negative 1.
Extra crit fail.
@mulberryPendulist
Oh dear
geriah
You turn the valve so poorly that you somehow manage to turn it backwards. The lid screws on so tight that the top of the pipe just explodes from pressure.
!roll 1d4
GameServ
geriah rolled 1d4: 1  <Total: 1>
geriah
Take 1 damage.
envisioningScholar
Zach doesn't realy notice.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: ...At least it's open now?
geriah
Your eyes are blurred for a second
Then...
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Also what the heck is that thing?
geriah
A really trippy ball thing emerges from the broken cruxtruder.
Also, dowels are just being spit out every two seconds.
You are pretty sure you just broke it.
If you don't do something to stop the dowel production, you might end up flooding your room just with dowels
@mulberryPendulist
Alba attempts to pull a piece of wall over top of the broken pipe
Should I roll?
geriah
Nope
You expend 5 grist, and pull out a fairly lengthy chunk of wall.
Congratulations, you just made an additional, very large, window.
By the time you cover the top of the pipe, the dowels in the room are up to Zach's knees
@mulberryPendulist
Well, at least it stopped
envisioningScholar
Zach gets even more confused and just throws books everywhere, in another fit of mini rage.
Once again, doesn't do much.
@mulberryPendulist
Alba starts poking around the menu to see if there's anything she can deploy that might help Zach feel better
envisioningScholar
he doesn't do much.
geriah
The only thing you can find
Is a punched card
That looks a lot like a captchalogue card
@mulberryPendulist
You guess that might be important? It looks kinda like that one button, so you figure you aught to deploy it
geriah
You deploy the card.
@mulberryPendulist
Whoops, that should be in third person
Ah well
geriah
On its face is a lightbulb.
@mulberryPendulist
Alba drops it onto Zach's desk next to his computer
MP: Hey Zach!
MP: I put a card thing on your desk
envisioningScholar
Zach hears it, mostly because he had ran out of books in his immediate proximity to throw.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: It looks like a captchalogue card, so maybe it's important?
envisioningScholar
He trudges through the Cruxite Dowels and types:
ES: Fuck off.
@mulberryPendulist
MP:... Yeah, I'm not surprised you feel that way
MP: I am sorry
envisioningScholar
ES: Why did you have to chose THIS game!
@mulberryPendulist
MP: I don't know
It was just... there
MP: I didn't think it would end up being like this
envisioningScholar
Zach just kind of just falls out of his chair and curls in a ball on a bed of Cruxite dowels.
@mulberryPendulist
Alba grabs his blanket off his bed and tries to cover him in it
geriah
Zachary.
Roll perception.
envisioningScholar
!roll 1d20
GameServ
envisioningScholar rolled 1d20: 2  <Total: 2>
geriah
u wot m8
Okay
Alba
You roll perception
envisioningScholar
Wait, modifier.
geriah
lol you failed anyways
@mulberryPendulist
!roll 1d20+4
GameServ
mulberryPendulist rolled 1d20: 2  <Total: 2(+4) = 6>
envisioningScholar
Plus modifier is now 5.
@mulberryPendulist
And I didn't do much better
geriah
omfg
well uhhh
hmm
Despite paying quite a bit of attention to making sure you don't strangle Zachary with the blanket or something
You do spot
A countdown
On the cruxtruder.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Uh
MP: Zach
MP: Zach I think you should get up
geriah
Its at 7:25
@mulberryPendulist
What does the countdown say?
Oh whoops
How fast is it ticking down?
envisioningScholar
Zach refuses and just lays there.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Dammit Zach, I think something's not right here
geriah
Its ticking down at a normal rate.
Both of you
Roll perception
Again
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Even considering everything else that's happening

geriah
Fucking finally you two.
You see something.
@mulberryPendulist
Woo hoo!
envisioningScholar
Nice rolls all around.
geriah
It looks like
A slight red glow
Coming from the new hole in the wall.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Zach your room is glowing
MP: That cannot possibly be a good thing
geriah
It looks like the glow is more coming from something outside.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: And I don't think I've managed to set your house on fire just yet, so it's probably not because of me
envisioningScholar
Zach reluctantly gets up and notices the red glow.
Zach trudges through the Cruxite Dowels and looks around.
geriah
You look outside, to the sky, to see....
envisioningScholar
Outside, I mean.
geriah
Meteors.
envisioningScholar
Fucking meteors.
geriah
This is a very shocking twist that no one saw coming
Ever
envisioningScholar
God dammit.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Zach? What is it?
envisioningScholar
It's really easy for you to see the current ones raining down aren't hitting anywhere near you, but you're still extremely worried.
Zach faints out of anxiety.
He falls back into the cruxite dowels.
@mulberryPendulist
Alba grabs a book and nudges Zach with it
Gently
MP: Zach
MP: Zach you need to get up
MP: I don't know what you saw but countdowns are never a good thing so I'll assume it wasn't good
envisioningScholar
Geri?
@mulberryPendulist
MP: C'mon buddy, wake up
geriah
Yo
Im still here.
envisioningScholar
Nevermind.
Zach just barely rouses, and gets up.
He checks his computer and says:
ES: Hi.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Hey
envisioningScholar
ES: One sec.
Zach grabs the punched card, looks around and quickly finds the slot in the Totem Lathe.
He puts the card in a grabs a cruxite dowel, and immediately realizes what its used for.
He shoves it into the Totem Lathe and it just goes to work.
That's how it works, right?
I forgot.
@mulberryPendulist
I think you need to stick a dowel in there
envisioningScholar
I did.
geriah
yus
@mulberryPendulist
Oh, missed that, sorry!
geriah
The machine whirrs and beeps, and a few seconds later you have a carved dowel.
envisioningScholar
ES: Alright, I'm back.
geriah
6:14 on the timer
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Hey
envisioningScholar
Not 6:12?
ES: Any idea what that floating thing is?
geriah
no
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Not a clue
MP: Try throwing something at it maybe?
geriah
Our arc number is 8:16 I believe
envisioningScholar
Oh, okay.
ES: Okay.
envisioningScholar
Zach picks up a copy of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets which he had previously thrown and throws it once again, instead aimed at the floating thing.
geriah
Roll dexterity.
envisioningScholar
!roll 1d20+1
GameServ
envisioningScholar rolled 1d20: 6  <Total: 6(+1) = 7>
geriah
The spinny thing dodges out of the way, and the book hits a wall and drops into the sea of dowels.

Zach goes over to where it fell and looks for it.
geriah
Roll perception

GameServ
envisioningScholar rolled 1d20: 13  <Total: 13(+3) = 16>
geriah
You look around for a bit and find the book. While you were away, it seems the seizure orb had other ideas and begins checking out your bookshelf. Better think fast, or it might just do something to your collection.
geriah
If you intend to throw the book again
Roll dexterity again
envisioningScholar
You toss it again, this time doing some mental back-of-the-napkin math.
!roll 1d20+1
GameServ
envisioningScholar rolled 1d20: 5  <Total: 5(+1) = 6>

Even worse.

You can re-roll again with int if you like.
Since you did le math
envisioningScholar
Yus please.
!roll 1d20+3
GameServ
envisioningScholar rolled 1d20: 16  <Total: 16(+3) = 19>
geriah
The book flies through the air in a perfect trajectory, and lands straight in the kernel.
You create.....
YOU CREATE.....
Basilisksprite.
Also brb
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Alright, what the hell is THAT thing?!
envisioningScholar
ES: A Basilisk.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Hang on, don't those have a killing stare?
envisioningScholar
Yes.
ES: Yes.
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Uh
I would say try to get rid of it, but you might not have time, that clock's still ticking down
envisioningScholar
Zach checks the Totem Lathe, and sees a newly carved Cruxite Dowel.
envisioningScholar
He grabs it and then realizes he can't do anything with it.
ES: Any idea what to do with this?
@mulberryPendulist
MP: Uh
envisioningScholar
Any other stuff you can deploy?
@mulberryPendulist
MP: No, but now that I think of it, there was a smaller platform on the alchemiter
MP: Maybe it has something to do with that?
envisioningScholar
Did Alba deploy that?
@mulberryPendulist
Yeah, remember? She tossed it through your wall and nearly crushed your parents
I think that counts as deployment
envisioningScholar
Oh yeah.
Zach goes downstairs and finds his parents cowering in fear in the kitchen corner.
@mulberryPendulist
Did Zach grab his phone this time?
envisioningScholar
I doesn't have the app on it, or whatever it is.
@mulberryPendulist
Ah, fair enough
envisioningScholar
Zach kind of ignores his parents while he's putting the carved Cruxite Dowel in the Alchemiter.
While Maverick waits for Geri, Zach goes over to his parents to comfort them.
geriah
back
envisioningScholar
What do Zach's parents say?
geriah
Hell if I know, they are your character's parents dud
I don't have enough experience with them to know what to say
Serk probably does
but he is rip
envisioningScholar
They don't really do much just kind of sitting there. Zach says, "Any questions?"
They're pretty basic.
Think of a Clichè and go with it.
geriah
Your parents seem to be missing in action.
envisioningScholar
Oh.
Okay then.
envisioningScholar
Well, you already the Cruxite Dowel in the Alchemiter, so that's something.
geriah
Better get going.
Timer is at 5:02
envisioningScholar
Well, you're still waiting for the Alchemiter to get done, you head upstairs to chat to Alba.
geriah
Wait
nvm
The alchemiter creates
(TOTALLY NOT SUSPICIOUS JUMP CUT)
[21:23] <geriah>  A flashlight.
[21:23] <envisioningScholar> And suddenly, through timey shit, we go back to when Zack was checking the Alchemiter!!!
[21:24] <geriah> WOWWWW
[21:24] <envisioningScholar> Anymore description I can have?
[21:25] <geriah> Just looks like a regular flashlight.
[21:25] <envisioningScholar> Zach picks it up and turns it on.
[21:25] <geriah> It shines around a bit, but with no avail.
[21:25] <geriah> Where exactly do you shine it?
[21:26] <envisioningScholar> The Alchemiter?
[21:26] <geriah> Eh, nothing happens.
[21:27] <envisioningScholar> Is there anything else on the Alchemiter, or just the Flashlight?
[21:27] <geriah> Just the flashlight.
[21:29] <envisioningScholar> Zach heads upstairs and shines it on the Totem Lathe and Cruxtruder. And basilisk-sprite, just to be sure.
[21:29] <geriah> nope, nope, and nope
[21:30] <envisioningScholar> Hm. Zach tries the bathroom mirror, to shine the light on its self.
[21:31] <geriah> You shine the light around in the mirror for a bit, when you finally slip up and shine the flashlight right in your eyes.
[21:32] <geriah> You are blinded not just by blinding yourself, but also by a much longer flash.
[21:32] <envisioningScholar> Did I get it?
[21:32] <geriah> You did indeed.
[21:33] <envisioningScholar> Yus!
[21:33] <envisioningScholar> How long did you think it would take to do that?
[21:33] <geriah> take to do what? Shine the light in your eyes?
[21:33] <envisioningScholar> Yeah.
[21:34] <geriah> Enough time to get out of there before you get pummeled into a pancake.
[21:34] <envisioningScholar> Anyways, actual land time! Yaaaay!
[21:35] <geriah> When you come to your senses, you are almost blinded by the incredible amount of light that shines into your room, just after you got blinded by the last two things.
[21:35] <geriah> Goddamnit, this is getting ridiculous.
[21:36] <envisioningScholar> Zach runs back into his room and grabs a hat he has, emblazoned with Ravenclaw on it.
[21:37] <envisioningScholar> You're a Ravenclaw and proud to be one!
[21:37] <geriah> Somewhere, a narrator sighs.
[21:38] <envisioningScholar> you
[21:38] <geriah> On your way to get your hat, you take a look through your brand new window.
[21:39] <geriah> What you see out side is a huge-ass star
[21:39] <geriah> And a countryside
[21:39] <geriah> That appears to be scorched completely dry of all vegetation.
[21:39] <geriah> The star is burning furiously, way high up. But much closer than you think a star has any right to be.
[21:40] <geriah> It looks like a red supergiant
[21:40] <geriah> Except
[21:40] <geriah> Minature size
[21:40] <geriah> Otherwise it would probably engulf you.
[21:40] <envisioningScholar> Miniature red supergiant.
[21:40] <envisioningScholar> This lands name is...
[21:41] <geriah> Other than that, you squint and seem to make out that you are on an island surrounded by a lava lake.
[21:41] <geriah> LAND OF FIRE AND STARS
[21:42] <envisioningScholar> You proceed to flip-the-fuck-out, but In a mini way.
[21:42] <envisioningScholar> And.... we leave it there.
[21:42] <geriah> lolk
[21:43] <envisioningScholar> Cliffhangers or whatever.
