TwinBuilder: SOLIDUS.
Erelye: [**Welcome to the high-security information database of Grayhold Citadel, Facet 1. Would you like to proceed? Y/N.**]
TwinBuilder: Y.
Erelye: [**SPECIFICATIONS / PROGRESS / DATABASE / CREDIT TRANSLATOR (7) / ИОУЦОС / EXIT**]
TwinBuilder: so what's new.
TwinBuilder: let's just input... this.
TwinBuilder: >  ཡིད་བཞིན་ནོར་བུ
Erelye: [*A bit early for the Cintamani, green. Get back to me with that later, though.*]
TwinBuilder: got it.
TwinBuilder: specifications?
Erelye: [**CORE / *1* / *2* / *3* / DEST. / EXIT**]
TwinBuilder: 1
Erelye: [**32.6 UI carnelian, 34.3 UI andalusite, 50.82 UI amber, ~~26.7 UI axinite~~, 36.3 UI chrome diopside, 43.1 UI citrine, 23.9 UI tourmaline, 49.63 UI pyrope, 47.38 UI chrysoprase. Status: 11.1% active. Stabilization phase headed by Fomalhaut (Jade, Facet-2EF8-6U8I Cut-6VP-Y31). Project irreparably damaged by group of maddened idiots. Replacements to be discussed with the Overseer.**]
TwinBuilder: wait, wait, wait. what.
TwinBuilder: WE did that.
TwinBuilder: there... was an axinite there?
TwinBuilder: I think I remember that, yeah.
TwinBuilder: 2.
crystalcat: Aft'mathai was axinite.
TwinBuilder: OH.
Erelye: [**68.72 UI galaxite, 51.34 UI labradorite, 63.21 UI bl. iolite, 54.08 UI aventurine. Status: 100% active. Stabilization process headed by Musharraf. Project completed, on standby.**]
TwinBuilder: Yes.
crystalcat: So, those were parts of GWE-DRAXIS.
TwinBuilder: Where does Malpeiyc fit in? How could they use him if he's an immortal knowledge fuck?
TwinBuilder: or is it that they just need his body
TwinBuilder: 3
Erelye: [*They can't take me alive if they need the stone I tore out of my body and gave to you.*]
Erelye: [**No specifications confirmed. View suggestions? Y/N.**]
TwinBuilder: hah. right.
TwinBuilder: wait what do you mean 'no specifications confirmed,' there's a 3??
TwinBuilder: y.
Erelye: [**50.82 UI lapis lazuli, 49.64 UI apatite, 19.1 UI topaz, 53.2 UI charoite. Projected stabilization process: N/A.**]
TwinBuilder: oh. right.

TwinBuilder: do we have R4-██ class credentials
TwinBuilder: like emeraldXtsavorite
TwinBuilder: I know that's not the actual X, but.
Erelye: [**Do you?**]
TwinBuilder: I think we do.
TwinBuilder: can you provide the appropriate x
Erelye: [**sol1dusfomalhaut | emeraldχtsavorite**]

РХ-0165 | РХ-3501 | ███████
EX1T | ███**
TwinBuilder: PX-0001
Erelye: [**РХ-0001: █████-███ ███. Contains the vault of the Overseer’s Lament. *Interaction with РХ-0001 in any manner with clearance lower than R4-ТАСЧЕТЕР is to be met with immediate and silent termination.* Further information restricted to R5-██ class personnel.**]
TwinBuilder: PX-0002.
Erelye: [**РХ-0002: █████-███ ███. Referred to *singularly* as The Gate. The ██████ ███ of ИММЕЦОН. Unauthorized personnel within proximity of РХ-0002 shall be immediately terminated. Directly powered by РХ-3501, through РХ-0165. When activated, РХ-0002 is said to be able to transport one through time and space, into an eternal solidusi apotheosis wherein one’s dreams could become physical reality. Currently inactive, with construction in progress. Further information restricted to R5-██ class personnel.**]
TwinBuilder: WHAT
SplitSuns: what have i stumbled upon
TwinBuilder: The Gate.
TwinBuilder: ((quick OOC note.))
TwinBuilder: ((PX translates to RH, right?))
TwinBuilder: ((Or RX.))
Erelye: [**RH.**]
TwinBuilder: RH, okay. what does that stand for.
TwinBuilder: PX-0003
Erelye: [**РТХУ-ХЫПХ.**]
Erelye: [**РХ-0003: █████-███ ███. The eternally-summoned scythe of the Overseer, stained with royal gem dust. Personnel who recover the weapon are to report to ИММЕЦОН, F1-0 immediately, and return it. Soaked in СУЛИМИ, and stained with the death of precisely four and a half (4.5) Diamonds. Further information restricted to R4-██ class personnel.**]
Nomble: automnal hand?
TwinBuilder: ...yes.
Nomble: "guess we better return it then"
TwinBuilder: RTHU-HYPH. hm.
Erelye: [*Discovery-concept.*]
TwinBuilder: so these are just oddities? weapons, hazards, anomalies?
TwinBuilder: that's what the RXs are.
Nomble: could we attempt to put in various passwords
Nomble: that we just got
Erelye: [*Don't forget inventions. But yes.*]
TwinBuilder: SULIMI is what it's soaked in.
TwinBuilder: PX-0165.
Erelye: [**РХ-0165: █████-███ ███. Referred to in private as СУЛИМИ, or the solidusi flame, to the unwise or cryptic. Energy-based quasigel manufactured by РХ-3501, its only known source. Appears to be phosphorescent pure white, though generally warm to the touch. Further information restricted to R4-██ class personnel.**]
TwinBuilder: oh okay
TwinBuilder: PX-3501
TwinBuilder: is that the godhead? I think so.
Erelye: [**РХ-3501: █████-███ ███. Extraction mechanism at the heart of ИММЕЦОН, F1-0. The lower portions of the machine draw magma from the planetary core to fuel energy extractors from the upper levels of the device, entirely from the shattered twin cores. Device provides all of the extraordinarily vast energy required to operate and construct РХ-0002 and operate the S.O.L.I.D.U.S. artificial intelligence core. Twin cores composed solely of green and blue diamond. A lack of maintenance will lead to planetary, or perhaps galactic, annihilation. Further information restricted to R4-██ class personnel.**]
TwinBuilder: that... that is not the godhead.
TwinBuilder: cores of green and blue diamond.
TwinBuilder: CORE / 1 / 2 / 3 / DEST.
TwinBuilder: well I'll be keked.
TwinBuilder: wait, so.
TwinBuilder: the autumnal hand is powered by the solidusi flame, which is taken from the extraction mechanism.
TwinBuilder: the extraction mechanism also powers the Gate and SOLIDUS.
TwinBuilder: interesting.
Erelye: [**Yes.**]
TwinBuilder: ███████
Erelye: [**ERROR: No such command exists.**]
TwinBuilder: NO
TwinBuilder: I JUST SAW IT FOR A BRIEF INSTANT

Erelye: [*...*]
Erelye: [*In that case, I'll be your host until I can get a strong enough connection, kid. Ask me anything. I have all the answers.*]
TwinBuilder: uh.
TwinBuilder: ok.
TwinBuilder: all five of the RHs we've seen have contained this: █████-███ ███
TwinBuilder: what does that mean.
TwinBuilder: (we've seen *this* time, I mean.)
Nomble: okay malpyus, do we have the nessesary R4 and R5 credentials to know more about the RX series in the database?
Erelye: [_It's essentially a classification for incredibly important topics. Loosely translated into a mortal tongue, it reads / ; : \*._]
Nomble: ...
Nomble: try underscores
Nomble: not two
TwinBuilder: oh dear god
SplitSuns: what
TwinBuilder: I get what the solidus, semicolon, and colon mean.
Erelye: [*Also, if you call me Malpyus again, I'll tear your face off.*]
TwinBuilder: and by that I mean, solidus is a war machine, semicolon and colon are fucking creepy as hell and deal with X.X.
TwinBuilder: but what about asterisk?
Erelye: [*Vyr.*]
crystalcat: There were asterisks floating around Aft'mathai's head.
TwinBuilder: oh shit.
TwinBuilder: do they have to do with furatism?
crystalcat: I'd bet not.
Erelye: [*No. They have to do with White getting that damn Gate open.*]
TwinBuilder: ...explain.
Erelye: [*Four keys to the doors. One power source, one interface.*]
TwinBuilder: they're building the gate, right? how can they attempt to open something that isn't fully complete.
Erelye: [*By the time XILN shows up, they'll have gotten everything in place. Not polished, perhaps, but functional.*]
Erelye: [_Then, the six of them need ;, :, *, and a Hand._]
TwinBuilder: The Autumnal Hand, I presume.
Erelye: [*To be fair, she'll probably have it back around then, assuming you don't get yourselves killed by the Parliament.*]
TwinBuilder: who exactly is in the parliament.
Erelye: [*:/: O /|\ O :\:*]
TwinBuilder: real funny.
TwinBuilder: hilarious, even.
TwinBuilder: wait
TwinBuilder: soliduses and colons
TwinBuilder: is that intentional, or
Erelye: [_Hmm. Maybe :/: \* /|\ \* :\: fits better. Nah._]
TwinBuilder: AAAAA
crystalcat: GAH
TwinBuilder: what would white do once they open the gate and enter apotheosis.
crystalcat: Probably bring back ROS-DRAXIS.
Erelye: [*Regardless, all you need know about the Parliament is that they want to keep Facet Nine as intact as possible, there are probably a few sneople in their ranks, and that their scholars posit the face of the Owl also represents a Gate of mystery.*]
Erelye: [*As for your question, are you sure you want to know what she'll do?*]
Erelye: [*Do you already know, even?*]
TwinBuilder: is crystal right.
crystalcat: Revive Pink Diamond?
Erelye: [*Not necessarily.*]
crystalcat: Hm.
Erelye: [*She's certainly learned you can't stitch shattered Diamonds back together. That's how sulimi came to be.*]
TwinBuilder: I mean. hold on a second.
TwinBuilder: grey can teleport back through time.
TwinBuilder: we saw them do it when I took control of them.
TwinBuilder: what's preventing them from going back in time and saving pink?
TwinBuilder: what prevented her from doing it back then?
TwinBuilder: can you only do it in small increments?
TwinBuilder: even still, why didn't she do it back then? did she not have those powers then?
crystalcat: Scorching, probably.
Erelye: [*Going back five thousand years isn't going to do anything other than drain her gem of all of its energy.*]
TwinBuilder: okay. but why didn't she do it then.
TwinBuilder: it would have been a few minutes rather than thosuands of years.
Erelye: [*That's the Sentinel's business, not mine. Or rather, its activation.*]
TwinBuilder: what's the difference between the sentinel and gray.
Erelye: [*ОПХИДИОН, and the persistence of the vow of Vyr.*]
TwinBuilder: OPHIDION?
crystalcat: Wait... Is the Scorched Sentinel another version of Grey Diamond somehow?
Erelye: [*:D*]
crystalcat: Also, Twin, OPHIDION is the philosophy of changing the world through changing yourself.
TwinBuilder: ah.
Erelye: [*Capital P.*]
crystalcat: Mh.
crystalcat: Philosophy, then.
Erelye: [*Know your Philosophy, kids. That's how you become GOD, with your eyes set on ཡིད་བཞིན་ནོར་བུ.*]
TwinBuilder: oh wait, wait. wait.
crystalcat: The lonk of all three Philosophies is around here somewhere...
TwinBuilder: ཡིད་བཞིན་ནོར་བུ
TwinBuilder: it's later.
TwinBuilder: I got back to you on it.
Erelye: [*Yes. Cintamani, the jewel of the Nine. Its concept forged on the first landing of gems on Earth. Thank Tibet for that.*]
TwinBuilder: what is it, exactly?
Erelye: [*It's a pearl-esque object sealed inside of a titian octahedron.*]
Erelye: [*If you catch my drift.*]
TwinBuilder: it's inside *the* Octahedron?
TwinBuilder: ((sorry for /afk))
Erelye: [*The Parliament calls it the Oddity, but that's their prerogative.*]
TwinBuilder: forgive me if this has been asked before, but. what exactly IS the Abyssal Oddity.
TwinBuilder: as in, what''s its purpose.
Erelye: [*Hmm.*]
Erelye: [_I would say / ; ; *, but I feel this would be unproductive._]
Erelye: [*As such, I'll go with it granting you whatever you might desire. A single command from a single person. It has never been used before.*]
TwinBuilder: who made it.
Erelye: [*A few elders from Tibet, and the Nine.*]
TwinBuilder: once again, apologies. who exactly are the nine. the nine of green diamond?
Erelye: [*The nine rulers of Facet 49. The former green order. ГWЕ-ДРАХИС.*]
TwinBuilder: how old are they?
Erelye: [*Old enough to have been the generals mentioned in White's little flashback before I talked to her on the first.*]
TwinBuilder: how many facets are there?
Erelye: [*Sixty-three.*]
Erelye: [*Oh, here we go. That's the trick. I just connected the phone wires. Anything you want to say to me before I patch you over to who you were supposed to see?*]
Nomble: do we have the nessesary R4 and R5 credentials to know more about the RX series in the database?
Erelye: [*Not the ones you want.*]
Erelye: [*Alright. Here we go. I'll see you all soon. Remember, sol1duskhalas is a thing, sneople are everywhere, and White is fucking losing it.*]
Erelye: [*You'll want these, as well. http://pastebin.com/D3Zsb5qk http://pastebin.com/kHVJBJYk.*]
Erelye: [**...**]
Erelye: [**...**]
TwinBuilder:
TwinBuilder:
Erelye: [**"*...*"**]
Erelye: [**"*What.*"**]
TwinBuilder: who are you?
Erelye: [**"*I'm the same person I've been for twenty-seven revolutions. I was just called insane by that maroon bastard, and then he patched me over to whoever this is.*"**]
crystalcat: Oh my god.
Erelye: [**"*...*"**]
crystalcat: Wait, no.
TwinBuilder: who did he just call insane
crystalcat: That isn't where 10/1/16 left off.
crystalcat: I think it might be Grey Diamond, but I'm not sure.
Erelye: [**"*Please refrain from calling me that.*"**]
Nomble: White is gotilla losing it.
- mal
crystalcat: Hah.
crystalcat: Fine then, ПЕРЛИЛ-ДРАХИС.
TwinBuilder: ...oh.
Erelye: [**"*That works.*"**]
Erelye: [**"*I suppose.*"**]
TwinBuilder: wouldn't ИММЕ-ДРАХИС work.
TwinBuilder: you know what, this is just semantics, I think.
TwinBuilder: the point is, we were meant to talk to you. apparently.
Erelye: [**"*You didn't come here for name games.*"**]
TwinBuilder: right.
Erelye: [**"*Tell me what you want, then. I'll just stand here. Hands bleeding profusely because I can't hold fucking still with these things.*"**]
TwinBuilder: ...with what.
crystalcat: The shards of РОС-ДРАХИС, I think.
Erelye: [**"*Please don't remind me of it.*"**]
crystalcat: Mh.
TwinBuilder: hm. I have a question.
TwinBuilder: how'd you get that ability to turn back time?
Erelye: [**"*The equivalent of a nuclear bomb to the front.*"**]
Erelye: [**"*With all of those little arcane modifications that spice up your death-day, of course.*"**]
TwinBuilder: got it.
TwinBuilder: how much do you know about the parliament?
Erelye: [**"*I know that I may as well run the place, at this point. If anyone asks, however, Basiliscus is just a friendly thief allying up with them.*"**]
TwinBuilder: Basiliscus?
Erelye: [**"*You know them well. Then again, they have been breaking from our boundaries, as of late. They might have to be replaced.*"**]
crystalcat: ...Semicolon.
Erelye: [**"*Hello? Is this thing broken, yet again?*"**]
crystalcat: Not quite.
Erelye: [**"*Mhm. The only thing one truly needs broken is sight.*"**]
TwinBuilder: who, exactly, did the autumnal hand kill.
TwinBuilder: I saw it kill two diamonds.
Erelye: [**"*...*"**]
TwinBuilder: But allegedly, it killed four and a half.
Erelye: [**"*...Shall I go in order?*"**]
Nomble: sure
Erelye: [**"*From latest to first, half of Green, Blue, Green, Blue. Then...*"**]
TwinBuilder: In retrospect... sorry for asking.
TwinBuilder: That was dumb.
Erelye: [**"*It's... it's no problem. Really. One day, I'll get to see her again. Even if I die in the process.*"**]
Erelye: [**"*And, trust me. There's certainly plenty of opportunities for that to occur.*"**]
TwinBuilder: is that what the gate's all about?
Erelye: [**"*Yes. That's all anything is about. ʑЊ ςθʑथεɟ.*"**]
TwinBuilder: Could you translate that for the weak-minded.
Erelye: [**"*АЛ АТАМЕН, in Carinian. ВУЛ ЗВИРЦИ АЛ РВИХ, in common modern Drenovian.*"**]
TwinBuilder: Hm. About languages...
TwinBuilder: When did you start speaking English?
TwinBuilder: As opposed to Drenovian.
Erelye: [**"*What makes you so certain I do?*"**]
TwinBuilder: ...
SplitSuns: mind blown
TwinBuilder: am I parsing this drenovian as english somehow
Erelye: [*Nah, she's just fucking with you. We picked it up when we first dropped by Earth.*]
Erelye: [**"*Get out.*"**]
SplitSuns: kek
Erelye: [**"*... Anyhow. Anything else you wish to speak to me about?*"**]
TwinBuilder: why do you hate him.
TwinBuilder: malpeiyc.
Erelye: [**"*Because he fucking wants to steal the only person I've ever needed in my life from me, and after I gave him the world when we won the war.*"**]
TwinBuilder: ...who?
Erelye: [**"*Who do you think.*"**]
TwinBuilder: pink?
Erelye: [**"*Yes. I even offered he take the Oddity. Yet, he still thirsts for the Gate.*"**]
Erelye: [**"*... He might get it, at this rate.*"**]
TwinBuilder: what would he do with it.
TwinBuilder: the gate, I mean.
TwinBuilder: achieve complete control over the physical world, or something?
Erelye: [**"*He practically already has that. More like rearranging all of the variables of every timeline in reality to make him the supreme god of all of existence at all times, everywhere. Possibly also breaking what semblance of a metaphysical barrier exists between all of you and us.*"**]
TwinBuilder: ...
TwinBuilder: oh god.
TwinBuilder: how come you can see us, anyway?
TwinBuilder: because I controlled you that one time?
Erelye: [*Be glad that little Project Solidus of yours was decommissioned, kiddo.*]
TwinBuilder: GAH
Erelye: [**"*I can't see you. You're like voices, in my head. You broke in when I was most susceptible, right after my... accident. You wanted me to kill.*"**]
TwinBuilder: Uh???
TwinBuilder: The narrator SAID you'd kill.
TwinBuilder: I went along with it.
TwinBuilder: ...
TwinBuilder: yeah that pretty much means it's my fault anyway, doesn't it.
TwinBuilder: shit.
Erelye: [**"*Whatever. It's fine. It doesn't matter anymore. I forgive you, because it never mattered. I don't matter.*"**]
TwinBuilder: What? No.
TwinBuilder: You matter.
TwinBuilder: Everyone matters.
TwinBuilder: You're basically the sole ruler of an entire fucking interstellar empire.
Erelye: [**"*That's not in a self-deprecatory way.*"**]
TwinBuilder: ...Then in what way is it.
Erelye: [**"*That's in a 'you do it for her' kind of way.*"**]
TwinBuilder: oh.
TwinBuilder: that's not exactly kosher either but
TwinBuilder: if you're taking philosophy lessons from a pearl then I won't stop you
Erelye: [**"*Not just any pearl. The one I've seen in my dreams.*"**]
Erelye: [**"*Certainly no TASCHETER.*"**]
TwinBuilder: ...
TwinBuilder: what are your dreams like.
Erelye: [**"*Usually about some land called Delmarva. I think it might be some sort of alternate timeline, given how my gem's worked as of late.*"**]
TwinBuilder: ...
TwinBuilder: do you dream about another authority.
TwinBuilder: that looks like this.
TwinBuilder: <:authority:230462461931814913>
Erelye: [**"*...*"**]
Erelye: [**"*How did you know?*"**]
TwinBuilder: have you ever heard of steven universe.
Erelye: [**"*Perhaps. There have been shouts of that name in my nightmarish dreams, of course.*"**]
Nomble: question: what gem were you in your dreams
Erelye: [**"*The kind that's ЦАЕР, ЦТХИС ИЕНЕИ QЕБ АЛОУС.*"**]
Erelye: [**"*...They have it much better in the dreams.*"**]
TwinBuilder: NOTHING, ??? OUT OF ALL.
TwinBuilder: the gist of what I was getting at is.
TwinBuilder: that 'alternate universe' in your dreams was created in my dimension.
Erelye: [*Ah, but which one?*]
Nomble: something like seer of all?
TwinBuilder: there are multiple?
Erelye: [*The kind where people say gems are made of the Refiner's Fire, the kind where it's all just a joke, or the kind where gems are made of legitimate light, and were formely slaves to sneople overlords?*"**]
TwinBuilder: ...
TwinBuilder: do you dream of a golden god fighting an army of descendants.
TwinBuilder: or am I *completely* off base here.
Erelye: [*Me?*]
Erelye: [**"*Get the fuck out of here, demon. I have no idea what you're talking about.*"**]
Erelye: [**"*Though, if anyone might know about that sort of thing, it would be ЦАЛБАЛАКРАБ.*"**]
TwinBuilder: oh goddamnit I thought it was you talking, not him.
TwinBuilder: CALBALAKRAB?
TwinBuilder: hm.
TwinBuilder: of course The Seer would know.
TwinBuilder: where can we find them.
Erelye: [**"*Well, they had sent an emissary to Sigma, but you passed by them, so that's no longer an option.*"**]
TwinBuilder: damnit.
TwinBuilder: we've passed by so much.
TwinBuilder: hm. a question.
Erelye: [**"*I'd say just get in touch with БАСИЛИСЦУС. They can bring a link up.*"**]
TwinBuilder: is there any way we could revisit things we've skipped?
Erelye: [**"*If they still physically exist.*"**]
TwinBuilder: also - how can we get in touch with the Seer.
Erelye: [**"*I just told you. You're about to meet the Parliament, anyhow.*"**]
TwinBuilder: what, when we start 'playing' again?
TwinBuilder: or, right after this conversation.
Erelye: [_The thirteent--_**"*shut the fuck up, and go away. Ugh. Sorry about that.*"**]
TwinBuilder: how does he keep messing with us.
Erelye: [**"*You idiots vaporized his body. He's everywhere.*"**]
TwinBuilder: ...right.
TwinBuilder: I mean, I've never seen him interrupt this much before.
Erelye: [*Probably because I'm right next to her this time around, and can hear the entire conversation without having to bother with broken sight.*"]
TwinBuilder: can you not
TwinBuilder: "my ultimate weapon against a supreme knowledge demon? asking them if they can't."
Erelye: ((Sorry, was explaining something on Veritus.))
Erelye: [*I most certainly can, and I definitely will.*]
TwinBuilder: if you're going to keep interrupting then what's the point of this conversation
Erelye: [**"*The point of this conversation is to make sure that you understand precisely why having lent a favor is a terrible thing, and why I'm a 'human' being, and a real person too.*"**]
TwinBuilder: I can see that dealing with Malpeiyc is undesirable, now.
TwinBuilder: ~~But I've always had a thing for Bills.~~ Anyway.
Erelye: [**"*Hah.*"**]
TwinBuilder: I get that you're a real person. I've known since I... saw Pink's death.
TwinBuilder: And yeah, I saw it.
TwinBuilder: Didn't influence it in any way. But I was "there."
Erelye: [**"*...*"**]
TwinBuilder: That's what got me to see you as more than a being of power looming over our heads.
TwinBuilder: It's what got me to see you as a person.
Erelye: [**"*I... Uh. People aren't supposed to see me as a person.*"**]
Erelye: [**"*Word breaks out, then I'll be fucking torn to shreds by the people, and the Carinians will take their home galaxy back.*"**]
TwinBuilder: I mean, I kinda guessed that.
TwinBuilder: It's just nice for me to know, I guess.
TwinBuilder: I won't tell anyone.
Erelye: [**"*I don't trust you for a second, but I'll pretend to.*"**]
TwinBuilder: Same?
Erelye: [**"*I suppose it's best that we just understand where we're coming from, and know to stay away.*"**]
TwinBuilder: Yeah.
TwinBuilder: ...What sector are we at now, exactly?
Erelye: [**"*Give me a second to tap into the mainframe here, and track that beacon we put on your ship.*"**]
Erelye: [**"*You're currently in Sigma, en route to Rho.*"**]
Pope Cipurr: "well time to find the beacon"
Pope Cipurr: "assuming you don't have ways to detonate it"
Erelye: [**"*I could, if I wanted.*"**]
TwinBuilder: ...goddamnit.
Erelye: [**"*But, there's no point. You're getting the Oddity for me.*"**]
TwinBuilder: FOR you. what makes you think azure's doing it for you.
Erelye: [**"*Now that you've given up on the Infinity Eye, at least.*"**]
TwinBuilder: The Infinity Eye?
Erelye: [**"*She's not going to do it for me. But, when the time comes, there's precisely two people who will have a chance of holding that thing in their hands, and making their wish.*"**]
TwinBuilder: Who.
Erelye: [*Hah.*]
Erelye: [**"*Colon, and the smoky god.*"**]
TwinBuilder: ...Great.
TwinBuilder: Not us.
TwinBuilder: Ooh, another question.
Pope Cipurr: i mean
TwinBuilder: Okay, technically not us?
Pope Cipurr: if we could get to colon
TwinBuilder: Another question, anyway. How can we cure Ashen Plague without resorting to an eldritch abomination.
TwinBuilder: Not even sure if you'll answer this, but. Wouldn't hurt to try.
Erelye: [**"*It's a computer virus. Delete it.*"**]
crystalcat: :o
crystalcat: How do we delete it, then?
TwinBuilder: *that* was unexpected.
Yung Venuz: ^
TwinBuilder: but it makes sense.
crystalcat: Yeus.
Yung Venuz: i never knew the ashen god was a glorified hacker
Erelye: [*Easy. When the Parliament knocks, tell them the Gate sent you, and that you were looking for a cure.*]
TwinBuilder: ...okay.
Yung Venuz: (i was gonna say glorified keyboard warrior but that felt exceedingly insulting)
TwinBuilder: can't we just incept our way into the minds of others, or would that require us dying.
Erelye: [**"*I don't know how that works. I haven't actually been around to see it, and was not aware that was a thing outside of my dreams until you told me just now.*"**]
crystalcat: Probably that's a power unique to Steven.
crystalcat: I mean, Lapis isn't a rose quartz, and Steven's already unique as a gem-human hybrid.
TwinBuilder: wait, what.
TwinBuilder: okay, let's take a step back.
TwinBuilder: WHAT, exactly, is in your dreams.
TwinBuilder: because steven universe is real on multiple levels, and that thing with us dying was pretty fucking spooky.
Erelye: [**"*I've told you. In my nightmarish dreams, in a land called Delmarva, there is a small human child, raised by what appear to be gems and a burnt-skinned bearded humanoid. I can relate to this last figure quite well, for I too have been afflicted by such a predictament, though on a more lethal scale.*"**]
TwinBuilder: ...burnt skinned. oh. yeah.
crystalcat: Delmarva... Beach City?
TwinBuilder: how can you relate to it?
TwinBuilder: <@!121058722813444096> that's the implication, yes.
Erelye: [**"*It looks to be caused by arcane sources, of course.*"**]
TwinBuilder: also, how do they devolve into nightmares, exactly.
TwinBuilder: and... when do you sleep. I thought gems didn't need to sleep.
Erelye: [**"*They are the nightmares themselves. The torture of seeing another reality in which everything worked out by far better than this hellhole has. As for sleeping, I suppose I'm using an incorrect term. More like 'gem-corrupto-blackening induced fever trances.'*"**]
TwinBuilder: ...That *is* a nightmare.
TwinBuilder: Guess I never thought of it that way.
TwinBuilder: Your gem. It's getting worse, isn't it.
Pope Cipurr: ((i mean we covered that earlier didn't we))
Erelye: [**"*It doesn't matter. I'm going to make it to the Gate in time. I can fucking smell the panacea.*"**]
Erelye: [**"*But, if not, enjoy the gaping vacuum, the Imperium collapsing, and the sneople enslaving you all.*"**]
TwinBuilder: The gaping vacuum?
Erelye: [**"*Power vacuum. Apologies.*"**]
crystalcat: Power vacuum, of course.
Erelye: [**"*In any case, if you're so intent on not getting me the Oddity, what do you intend to do with it.*"**]
TwinBuilder: This may make your eye twitch, but... I don't exactly know.
Erelye: [**"*...*"**]
TwinBuilder: I mean, if you're using the Gate to get Pink back, that's something I can understand. And I don't even know if it's something we should be preventing.
TwinBuilder: But then again. I'm not exactly trusting you.
TwinBuilder: And you're not exactly trusting me.
Erelye: [**"*No, you've got to understand. I've got to fucking have that thing. It might be my last shot. All I've ever fucking wanted for five thousand damn years is to see one person again, and I can barely accomplish it myself. You don't even know what you're going to do with it, and I can give you anything in the world you want for it. Anything. Please.*"**]
TwinBuilder: Wouldn't that be... a favor.
Erelye: [*Oh, yes. Yes yes yes. The favor to end all favors.*]
crystalcat: Oh, fuck.
TwinBuilder: Well, I'll tell you what.
Erelye: [*We could've been either gods, or conquering the other end of the supposed solidusi link by mass-rearranging timeline variables, but SHE's fucking managed to keep us from it, all thanks to this one person.*]
TwinBuilder: wait, wait. There's another end?
TwinBuilder: WHAT other end.
crystalcat: Probably Malpeiyc is going to call in his favor when we reach the Oddity.
Erelye: [*Well, okay. Two different ends.*]
Erelye: [*One's preferrable, seeing as the other one is both fake, and full of lunatic assclowns with no grip on reality.*]
SplitSuns: > lunatic assclowns
SplitSuns: it's current year, everyone
Erelye: [*... I think it'd be easy to conquer.*]
crystalcat: Wait...
TwinBuilder: How about *we* get the Oddity, and you get the Gate. That's fair, right?
TwinBuilder: One wish for both of us. You get her back, and we do whatever we want.
crystalcat: I think he's talking about, in Pinarian terms, Masonic Fiction and Nonfiction.
SplitSuns: so i was right
Erelye: [**"*What do you even want with the Oddity, yourselves?*"**]
TwinBuilder: A better life for everyone, maybe.
TwinBuilder: The empire isn't exactly in the best of shape, I know.
Erelye: [*That would probably kill her. Just saying.*]
TwinBuilder: :/
TwinBuilder: *Without* killing her.
Erelye: [**"*Look. Okay. We can work this out.*"**]
TwinBuilder: I don't know. Maybe we could make some kind of universe. Where you get Pink, where everyone stops trying to kill each other for one goddamn second.
Erelye: [**"*You... you can have the Oddity.*"**]
Erelye: [**"*Please don't lose it to anybody.*"**]
TwinBuilder: I'll try.
TwinBuilder: And in return, you get the Gate.
TwinBuilder: And don't kill us with it.
Erelye: [**"*I'll work with the Gate. I'm getting her back, no matter the cost. When I come back, you can fix reality, and we can all go on some permanent secret vacation to Earth, or something.*"**]
TwinBuilder: Sounds like a d--
TwinBuilder: ...Sounds like a plan.
Erelye: [**"*Alright. Just one thing more you need to know, then.*"**]
Erelye: [*...*]
TwinBuilder: "we were never actually talking to you. it was malpeiyc the whole time, and this plan was legally binding."
Erelye: [*White. It's behind you.*]
Erelye: [**"*...*"**]
TwinBuilder: wait, what.
crystalcat: I think it's the Sentinel...
Erelye: [**"*How do you know?*"**]
TwinBuilder: if what I think is happening is about to happen
Erelye: [*I can smell the smoke.*]
TwinBuilder: O GOD]
Erelye: [**"*... Give me a sulim, quick. We can probably take it before it damages existence too much.*"**]
Erelye: [*Alright. Three.*]
Erelye: [**"*Two.*"**]
Erelye: [**"*On--*"**]
Erelye: [**"ɮoअʑɣ पॢॡѦЊ ɕΦѦҒѮʑɟ पॢѦЊѮo-ʑॡअ पॢʋ̥θ."**]
Erelye: [**... Call terminated.**]
crystalcat: ...Were those the Syllables?
Erelye: [**Were they?**]
TwinBuilder: I have to go
TwinBuilder: good thing that ended right there
TwinBuilder: before I leave, > translate ɮoअʑɣ पॢॡѦЊ ɕΦѦҒѮʑɟ पॢѦЊѮo-ʑॡअ पॢʋ̥θ
Erelye: [**OUTPUT: ИОУЦОС ВЫРИЛ ОПХИДИОН ВИЛИУ-АРЦ ВЕТА.**]
Erelye: [**Translation credit(s) absorbed.**]
crystalcat: Yeah, that's "I AM A SILENT CHANGE OF MIND..."
crystalcat: etc.
TwinBuilder: This has been very interesting.
TwinBuilder: End, I suppose?
Erelye: [~~Before we end, I just want you to know you won't be seeing those two around for a while, fleshpuppets.~~]
