1102 >Syb: ride lift, again

MM: may I ask a question?

SB: Sure.

MM: how does it feel inside sburb?

MM: I mean, is it cold, warm, gloomy?

SB: So, the place I'm in is called the Medium.

SB: And it feels nice in it.

SB: I think that it'll feel like pleasant memories when you enter.

SB: When I entered, it felt like the cool, humid air of waterfall, my home in the underground.

SB: But I think it felt different for Meowrage.

SB: He didn't tell me what it felt like for him, but I think it was the chill air of Indigo City.

SB: So, for you, it'd be whatever brings you fond memories.

MM: the smell of the farm.

SB: So, then, I suspect that it'd smell like that, and feel like that.

SB: I think this game is designed to coax you into your future.

SB: Like, it starts out with you in familiar territory, like the smell of farm or of rain, and then it ramps it up until you are ready to be your destiny.

SB: My sprite told me that I would have a big destiny to grow into, but that we'd take it slow so that I could be ready when harder things come along.

SB: I think that's what this whole game's about.

SB: We're all adolescents, growing into an unfamiliar world.

SB: But we have familiar things to latch onto, like our families, friends, school, and other things.

SB: This game is much like that.

MM: why do you think that?

SB: Our destinies in the game are much like adulthood outside the game.

SB: Do you really think that you'll be a streamer living in their father's circus for the rest of your life?

SB: No, you'll move on from home and go onto brighter things.

SB: This game's system of destiny is that.

SB: I'm pretty sure that I won't stay at my house for the entirety of the game, much like you, Meowrage, and Suki, and we'll move onto brighter things, like our own universe.

MM: does it feel good?

SB: What?

MM: knowing your future?

MM: knowing that whatever you'll do, you'll have your destiny to look at?

SB: Yes?

MM: don't you know?

SB: What?

MM: Suki.

SB: What about her?

MM: are all guys this oblivious?

MM: don't you remember her muttering in her sleep?

SB: Yeah, something about "quack" or something.

SB: What about it?

MM: she discovered a set of bones that were surrounded by that wording.

MM: quack quack quack quack.

MM: the sound of a duck.

SB: You can't be saying that I killed somebody in front of Suki while saying Quack.

SB: I think I would remember it.

MM: no, I'm not saying that.

MM: what I am saying is that I might know who wrote that message.

MM: it was a message from the future.

MM: and it was written by herself.

SB: How do you know that?

MM: I'm a ghost, I know a haunting when I see one.

MM: and she definitely is haunted.

MM: I can't see other ghosts when they are haunting, but I can sense their energies, and Suki's ghost is very similar to Suki herself.

MM: Suki is haunted by her future.

MM: I don't think mentions of destiny would sooth her.

SB: You're right.

SB: But for the rest of us, our destinies should be looked forward to by the game.

SB: Which is what I ultimately meant.

MM: I understand now.

MM: I'll go do those machine stuff.
