yeah i promise i'll rein it in the network has been such a mess for so long i'm like always on edge but uh even if all that aerie stuff is complicated you know i still love you, right?
well in non enormous Jimmy and the Gods Band terms I'm working on something that hopefully will keep us from getting recognized on the street 24/7, if I can figure it out
on a grand scale I'd like to see the plans for the machine he built so I can understand what in the fuck he did to break a god apart, and see if maybe it's reversible, if we can somehow fix it which I doubt, but I feel like you know how in movies people like elaborately break into windows or climb over gates and then some other person comes along and just opens the door because it was unlocked the whole fucking time? that, but about this situation I just want to check the knob on the off chance
and I'd like to test using our powers to disable tech when necessary, like the sim so sort of not tech controlling powers but the other way around, you know? that's equally as important I want to see if I can recreate that consistently so it's kind of a safety net for us just in case a secret evil AI rises up and takes control of our bodies through the implant like I conspiracy theorized the first time we talked or something more likely, realistically, like a second sim, but you never know man
and from a pure curiosity standpoint I want to know what he did that started dragging us here, how much was him and how much was our cosmic friend not because I want to use it, I honestly don't want to leave so I have no real motivation to try I just want to wrap my head around it, because that's absolutely insane I mean, it's like multiversal travel, that's the most significant feat in like history even if it was a terrible unfeasible non-reproducible fuckup
what about your magic training? do you have any ideas or plans in mind?
and yeah, uh i think we need to figure out if the god is bound to us or if it's part of us now if we're combined with it, it might not be reversible plus, i think there's a lot more we could be doing with our powers people have altered reality with them before in little ways, but still important ren has experience with something like that back home, so he's got ideas for how to figure out how our dreams work and i wonder if we can do more with our shared powers if the pieces of the god are still connected or calling to each other, that could make us more powerful when we're working as a group maybe we can even tap into things it could do that we can't yet like the multiversal travel thing i don't know if killing the god is what did it specifically, like some kind of wound, or if the god could always do that and it was a side effect you know?
so i guess it'll be trial and error but i think a big step is trusting our powers and trying to use them more intuitively most of us get freaked out by the dreams or the empathy bond because they feel invasive it's probably holding us back and if we mastered them, i'm sure we could control what we're sharing i want to work on those chest objects people have talked about too
I can't turn it off I mean, unless I'm going in circles having an existential crisis and overanalyzing everything, so it's actually kind of an improvement
some of that sounds an awful lot like kumbaya shit
but I would love to know how we should work on controlling the dreams, because fuck, man, I'm so sick of not being able to get a handle on those
for the record if this turns into one of those situations where we bond and turn into a hive mind that breaks down into collective consciousness orange Tang I would really like to not do that
but I mean I could help with the chest thing I guess if you want to try it
god no, fuck that i'm thinking more like a captain planet thing except maybe without the blue guy in a crop top but all these plants in new amsterdam started growing after zerzura, right? and now they're out of control again and there's deer and shit running around which might just be because no one was around, but maybe we can help heal this place a little, you know?
and yeah that would be awesome if you're comfortable with it, i mean

me too
like, all the time
but it's good, right? that we're talking?
even if we still sometimes suck at it
no subject
it's good
I was hyping it up in my head but we did pretty fucking well I think
no subject
i promise i'll rein it in
the network has been such a mess for so long i'm like
always on edge
but uh
even if all that aerie stuff is complicated
you know i still love you, right?
no subject

i love you too, scary spice
no subject
wait
why am i scary spice?
no subject

i could totally pull off leopard print though
no subject
that would require you wearing something other than black
no subject
i wear that sweater i stole from you sometimes
no subject

does it have little elbow patches?

btw
what are your fancy tech ideas?
what do you want to do?

you know how in movies people like elaborately break into windows or climb over gates and then some other person comes along and just

that, but about this situation
I just want to check the knob on the off chance
and I'd like to test using our powers to disable tech when necessary, like the sim
so sort of
not tech controlling powers but the other way around, you know? that's equally as important
I want to see if I can recreate that consistently so it's kind of a safety net for us

history
even if it was a terrible unfeasible non-reproducible fuckup
what about your magic training?
do you have any ideas or plans in mind?
no subject
you really have been brainstorming
and yeah, uh
i think we need to figure out if the god is bound to us or if it's part of us now
if we're combined with it, it might not be reversible
plus, i think there's a lot more we could be doing with our powers
people have altered reality with them before
in little ways, but still important
ren has experience with something like that back home, so he's got ideas for how to figure out how our dreams work
and i wonder if we can do more with our shared powers
if the pieces of the god are still connected or calling to each other, that could make us more powerful when we're working as a group
maybe we can even tap into things it could do that we can't yet
like the multiversal travel thing
i don't know if killing the god is what did it specifically, like some kind of wound, or if the god could always do that and it was a side effect
you know?
so i guess it'll be trial and error
but i think a big step is trusting our powers and trying to use them more intuitively

no, fuck that
i'm thinking more like a captain planet thing
except maybe without the blue guy in a crop top

and now they're out of control again and there's deer and shit running around
which might just be because no one was around, but
maybe we can help heal this place a little, you know?
and yeah
that would be awesome
if you're comfortable with it, i mean
no subject
how dare you rule out the idea that I'd be the guy in the crop top
I look amazing in them
yeah
I mean
if it's gonna be anybody, right?
no subject
thanks
i haven't been able to trigger it yet
i really want to know what mine looks like
no subject
we'll figure it out
probably with alcohol on hand because I'm guessing it's going to be intense
I've temporarily switched off of tequila, we're on rum now, just as an FYI status update
