Don't bother the techs. Seriously, don't. I'm not entirely sure what's going on but all I'm getting is that it's the equivalent of being hacked and someone who knows layer theory better than we do is out there screwing things up and tampering with the project. I don't have a really good update for you guys, but bear with us. Please?

[spirithacker]

[She'll definitely take his side over anyone else!]

[thebeastwithout]

magic is different from superpowers though
magic is like
i dunno, fantasy stuff

superpowers are real

[.......]

ok, like, they could be real

[spirithacker]

magic is just as real as superpowers
its real if u get it back from retrospec
besides that nope

[thebeastwithout]

[spirithacker]

[Shinji has to think for a minute about this one.]

getting rid of memories

[thebeastwithout]

uhhhhhhh
'k

wait why

[spirithacker]

[thebeastwithout]

tw: child death talk

[spirithacker]

getting ready to die
stuff like that

i dont like it

[thebeastwithout]

[thebeastwithout]

iunno

you were preparing to die 'cause you were gonna get your favorite video game and it was so awesome you were gonna die!

...right

[spirithacker]

no
i mean literally being killed

[thebeastwithout]

uhhh
ok that sucks sorry




did you get killed

[spirithacker]

havent gotten that far
maybe

[thebeastwithout]

hey i bet it's a better ending than you think

you're in danger but something's gonna turn around

stories don't end with the good guys dying

[spirithacker]

what if it turns out youre a side character

[thebeastwithout]

((Sorry for the delay! I went away on holiday for a week. Feel free to drop this if it's been too long!))

side characters can be good guys too
the hero will come back and bring you back to life if you're good friends!
...something like that

never too long

[spirithacker]

what if this is the wrong genre
or were in one of those edgy versions where people dont get happy endings because the author thinks thats dumb

[thebeastwithout]

...ok i dunno

but like you're alive here right? and if it makes you feel better, i kinda remember the whole world getting wrecked and a lotta people dying but i'm hoping that's not the end of the story

[spirithacker]

that helps a little

sry for getting weird

[thebeastwithout]

no worries dude
i mean you're too young to die anyway
you gotta be at least like 12 i think
it's some kinda rule

try not to think about it
that's what i do when something bothers me

[this is terrible advice but gar is a terrible advice giver in general]

[spirithacker]

[Gar is trying. He's just really bad at this.]

does that work for u
i think i heard youre not supposed to bottle stuff up
