Noa: Answer Max.
achroousAcatalepsy [AA] began pestering galacticCaptivation [GC]
AA: I understand.
GC: hi
GC: i see youre in my room now
AA: Yes.
AA: I gather my actions here have resulted in your safe awakening on Prospit.
GC: um, i have no idea what resulted from what
GC: but i am safe now, yeah
AA: Good.
GC: yes
GC: ...
AA: Now we're facing an unfortunate situation.
GC: oh?
AA: It is one my informant hadn't made me aware of before this point.
AA: We need to figure out how to first get me in the game, you out of the game, and then you back in.
GC: yeah that definitely sounds like a dilemma
AA: Indeed.
AA: I have no ideas for how to proceed.
AA: I'm not particularly confident a way forward exists.
GC: cc said it would work out, so i wouldnt stress about it
AA: That only raises the stakes further. Now our timeline will be doomed if we can't comply.
GC: oh
GC: i dont really understand this timeline stuff
GC: theres one alpha timeline and every other timeline is doomed, i guess?
AA: If my informant is to be trusted, then yes.
AA: Timelines straying from the alpha path continue for a little while, and then cease to exist.
GC: why are all the timelines but one doomed
GC: thats a weird thing to be true
AA: I don't know the mechanism.
AA: This simply is the way it is.
GC: you aren't interested in why?
AA: I suppose not.
GC: hm
GC: thats weird
GC: are you okay?
AA: Why do you ask?
GC: i dont know, im getting weird vibes i guess :p
AA: I think I am remarkably okay given the circumstance.
GC: oh
GC: yeah i guess theres a lot of crazy stuff happening suddenly
AA: Yes.
AA: It's becoming increasingly apparent that the possibility of our success is incredibly far-fetched.
AA: As I've been informed, the game is very cruel. Even under normal circumstances, we wouldn't
be likely to win.
AA: But then, we've also been given additional burdens, which have resulted in the
precarious position we currently hold. It seems to me likely that we'll soon slip into a failstate. Furthermore, our emergency reset
option for this situation has already been used.
AA: I've been informed we won't lose, of course, at least not until later. But I'm not convinced my
informant has my best needs in mind. I'm not sure anyone does, really. It appears to me more and more likely that we've been
surrounded by false prognosticators, agents attempting to work through us as much as for or with us.
GC: ...oh
AA: As I said; we're facing an unfortunate situation.
GC: arent we like, just barely getting started
GC: it seems way too early to come to such a hopeless conclusion
AA: I suppose.
GC: ive been talking to cc a lot, and shes been very helpful. i dont think we have that much to worry about.
GC: well, okay, she did get me killed actually
GC: but uh...
GC: its complicated. you know how it is.
AA: ...
GC: yeah, i guess that sounds really bad.....
GC: but shes been helpful, i promise
AA: ...
AA: Okay.
AA: I trust you.
GC: ^_^
AA: [_][_]
GC: ill get the game started up! one step at a time, no ex machina necessary
AA: Thank you.
