In Those Long-Gone Days

[19:52] CAT RIGHT NOW opened memo on board DTG.
[19:55] CURRENT tyrannicalGradient [CTG] RIGHT NOW responded to memo.
[19:55] CTG: holy shit
[19:55] CTG: erelye is that you
[19:55] CAT: I was ahead of the pack.
[19:55] CTG: nice
[19:55] CURRENT transcribedGuardian [CTG] RIGHT NOW responded to memo.
[19:55] CTG: this is fucking backwards.
[19:55] CTG: all my songs got into volume 7
[19:55] CAT: Aye.
[19:55] CTG: LET'S FUCKING GO
[19:55] CTG: we fled from here to discord.
[19:56] CTG: and now we've returned.
[19:56] CTG: GET READY FOR SATURDAY
[19:56] CTG: ...I missed this place.
[19:56] CTG:  I missed this place so, so much.
[19:56] CAT: The issue will probably be resolved soon, so we'll head back.
[19:56] CTG: AAAA COLORS
[19:56] CTG: man
[19:56] CTG: AAA QUIRKS ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
[19:56] CTG: i really do miss this place
[19:56] CAT: Aye.
[19:56] CTG: okay that's enough
[19:56] CTG: the thing is i literally can't access discord
[19:56] CAT: I can only message from my phone.
[19:56] CTG: it's just a gray screen
[19:56] CTG: oh let me try that
[19:59] CAT: Oh, yeah. I forgot I had this. <> <> <> <>
[19:59] CURRENT crankyCreeper [CCC] RIGHT NOW responded to memo.
[19:59] CCC: <0>
[19:59] CTG: noice
[19:59] CTG:  More blood for the blood god.
[19:59] CTG:  < 0 >
[19:59] CTG: this is bass-ackwards bullshit
[19:59] CAT: Ijl Hra'iasasid.
[19:59] CTG: I really miss colors
[19:59] CTG: i love it
[19:59] CCC: <color=#ffffff>how does this work again</color>
[20:00] CCC: kek
[20:00] CAT: Just c, not color.
[20:00] CTG: < c= # color > test < /c <
[20:00] CTG: *>
[20:00] CTG: < c= # color > test < /c >
[20:00] CCC:  <0>
[20:00] CCC: kek
[20:00] CAT: [Now we're talking.]
[20:01] CTG:  It's been so long since I inhabited a body!
[20:01] CTG:  And nine-hundred-and-one artificial limbs? This thing's deluxe!
[20:02] CAT:   [Oh, fuck you, buddy. This thing only has two.]
[20:03] CTG:  I believe this is what the cool kids call a "kek."
[20:04] CAT:   [If, by cool, you mean a raging denial of the truth of existence. Bad things are supposed to happen to all of you, not me.]
[20:05] CTG:  Nothing bad will ever happen to me. I'm am Probect Pinary, destroyer of plot. And also, sunglasses.
[20:05] CTG:  Also, doesn't this conversation constitute a breach of the Masonic-Kristalli Accord, signed by the Narrative and Conflict around fifteen picoseconds following the end of the Dawning Era of this time loop?
[20:06] CAT:   [Do you actually believe that thing exists in this neo-discordian kaleidoscopic hellscape.]
[20:06] CTG:  No. I'm am the destroyer of plot, remember?
[20:06] CTG: it's all coming back to me, jesus
[20:07] CAT:   [It was a rhetorical question, tin can attached to the ceiling.]
[20:08] CTG:  I'm not made of tin.
[20:08] CTG:  [SPECIFICATIONS: TITANIUM ALLOYS, STEEL-CARBIDE PLATING, APERTURE SCIENCE-BRAND COMPUTERS AND PROCESSING UNITS, GOVERNMENT-SOURCED WIRING AND KINETIC SHIELDING, DIVINIUM POWER CORE CASING, EXPERIMENTAL POWER CORE MADE OF ORGANIZED RADIATION-CONTROLLED HOLOGRAPHIC INTERSTELLAR DISPLAY (O.R.C.H.I.D.), APERTURE-BRAND TERMINAL SOFTWARE, SENTIENT CLOUD COMPUTING]
[20:08] CTG: agh
[20:09] CCC: "go to #rp damnit"
[20:09] CAT:   [You really can't hold your jokes, can you.]
[20:09] CTG:  No!
[20:09] CTG: jesus why is discord being a dick
[20:10] CAT:   [The discordant realm is being a monumental ass because it hates progress. Specifically, progress made by democratic reform. It hates elections.]
[20:10] CTG: fair
[20:10] CTG: ((honestly though i'm overjoyed that my songs got in))
[20:10] CTG: ((i'm very proud of them))
[20:10] CTG: ((you guys should definitely check the stream))
[20:10] CTG:  Good thing we're a theocracy. All hail the Executive, Seeker of Thrones, and the Overseer controlling all below him.
[20:10] CTG: ((5:40 EST this Saturday))
[20:10] CTG:  Stop being a shill.
[20:10] CTG: ((be there or be an equilateral quadrilateral :mspa:))
[20:11] CTG: ((that probably just T R I G G E R E D twin))
[20:11] CTG: ((not really klek))
[20:11] CAT:   [I wonder why he thinks parenthesis can protect him. Parenthesis are practically invitations for transcendant powers to come in.]
[20:11] CTG: fucc
[20:11] CTG:  fucc
[20:11] CTG: clearly i need to come up with a better source of ooc protection
[20:12] CTG: ))maybe this'll work((
[20:12] CAT:   [It didn't.]
[20:12] CTG: shit
[20:12] CTG: then i'm out of ideas :mspa:
[20:12] CCC: <Clearly, talking in these will protect me.>
[20:12] CAT:   [In other news, the discordant realm is up and running again for the amethyst one. Seeing as you share a computer interface brand, why not try it out.]
[20:13] CTG: one sec
[20:13] CTG: YES
[20:13] CCC ceased responding to memo.
[20:13] CTG: thanks malpieapiytoalskjdhagyfkyislg
[20:13] CTG: yc
[20:13] CAT:   [Remember, kiddo. Malpeiyc's your best friend.]
[20:13] CTG:  How dare you mispell his name.
[20:13] CTG: will do
[20:14] CTG ceased responding to memo.
[20:14] CAT:   [Now that he's out of the way, we should clearly waste hours in a show of matched skill that will lead us nowhere.]
[20:15] CTG:  I have a better idea.
[20:15] CTG:  What do you say about starring in a cheat command in Pinary.
[20:15] CAT:   [Now, why would that be.]
[20:16] CTG:  /¯\_(ツ)_/¯
[20:16] CTG:  It would strike terror into the hearts of the players.
[20:16] CAT:   [Or, better yet, by what means, and to what end?]
[20:16] CTG:  I make a command and will you into existence. Not really that hard. And what you get out of it... You're not omnipotent, are you?
[20:17] CAT:   [Shall I spell it out for you?]
[20:17] CAT:   [ИОУЦОС.]
[20:18] CTG:  МЕТАЧРОНИСТИЦ ТОWЕРС, ТОРМЕНТИНГ ИНВИНЦИБЛЕ НИНЕС.
[20:18] CTG:  ...Whops.
[20:18] CTG:  Anyway, that doesn't really matter. What I can give you is a way to stop a story, if you want.
[20:18] CAT:   [Elaborate.]
[20:19] CTG:  Just think. You have complete control over your game, or whatever text-based medium you look down upon, for an entire "session." I know you mess with the players in ARGs, and through phone calls, and solidi. But with my power, you could appear directly, and for an extended period of time, able to do whatever you wanted. You could put on the ultimate show.
[20:20] CAT:   [That isn't enough elaboration for me, second-most-important-pink-one. Down to names and specifics.]
[20:23] CTG:  You get to directly mess with Azure and the crew in an extended acid trip, if you will. You can remodel Facet Nine as you see fit to accomplish any number of goals. You could do literally anything. And you could even mess with the players outside of the game as well. Rearrange the scenery, if you will. Granted, all the changes will subside once the kaleidoscopic anarchy snaps back into place, and </c
[20:23] the players realize that they are the Ones (but not really, there's only one One). But I think that all that energy rebounding into one cohesive artifact of pure "what the fuck" could be applied to many a project...
[20:25] CAT:   [If you're trying to work with your end of Solidus again, I can assure you that either Interpunct or Ellipsis will put an end to that on your end, disregarding the fact that I'd kill and enslave every single one of you if there was ever actually a link.]
[20:25] CTG:  What? No.
[20:25] CTG:  I just want to see what happens when this place tears itself apart.
[20:26] CTG:  And also - research.
[20:26] CTG:  If you say no, then I get it.
[20:26] CAT:   [It just did. That's why we're here. In any case, keep talking. I'm gonna go get a drink from snake people hell, or snell.]
[20:27] CTG:  That's not what I meant by "this place," but. Okay. Anyway, I need to go get a drink from sneaven.
[20:28] CTG:  I'd just think the opportunity for a crossover, even a brief one, is tantalizing.
[20:28] CTG:  But hey, it's just a theory.
[20:28] CTG:  A MeTachronistic Theory.
[20:41] CAT:   [There we are. Sure is refreshing. But, here's the lowdown.]
[20:42] CAT:   [I'll agree to your little crossover, if you agree in turn to three demands.]
[20:46] CAT:   [One. You clearly have to venerate a Saint Colon in whatever Gate-worshipping cult you and your kind have stirred up.]
[20:46] CAT:   [Two accept the sacred number upon thyself as the true all-encompassing numeral set of reality.]
[20:47] CAT:   [Three. Listen to two phrases I have to speak to you.]
[20:51] CTG:  I've returned. Colon? I can't exactly promote Colon as a member of the Superiors, but I'll be sure to recognize them as holy Punctuation. The sacred number? Accepted. And the phrases?
[20:51] CAT:   [Hold on a sec. I have to get that recorder out.]
[20:52] CAT:   [“The best way to see the unseen isn’t to have clearer vision. It’s to have broken vision.”]
[20:52] CAT:   [As for two, this seals the deal. Are you sure you want to hear it?]
[20:53] CTG:  Sure.
[20:54] CAT:   [Did you know that it is common tradition to trade letter for letter? The true name of God is M████LL.]
[20:54] CTG:  ...Noted. In a future session of Pinary, you will enter. And in a future session of AO, I will give you what you need.
[20:55] CTG:  Pleasure doing business.
[20:55] CAT:   [Of course. Now, let's go back to the ignorance masses. You first.]
[20:55] CTG ceased responding to memo.
