Last Time! We walked up to a door! Questions! Answers! I survived as a pinata!

So, do you take C.C.'s hand and enter the Thought Elevator?

>>26667742
Kick over chess board, proceed into Thought Elevator.

Well, I just realized I was inadvertnatly robbed at FNM, so I'm going to try to remedy that before all hope disappears.

Sorry

>>26667873
Welp.

>>26667922
almost all the players are non-EST anyways, I'llb e back

>>26667934
Is that why I keep missing this quest? I was involved back in the beginning but somewhere around thread 8 it started never being active when I was online.

>>26668330
>>26668330
You know, I don't actually recall when I used to run the quest. Shame I've been missing you.

Back though, let's get rolling nigga got away with my cards

>>26668462
What'd you lose, altogether?

>>26668539
a Breeding pool and 2 Hinterland Harbors

Might get them back tomorrow because I alerted the judge and it was likely accidental since he was trying to trade for them.

>>26667873

Bad luck night it is bros. Get the vodka out.

>>26668920
I'll have to make do with cider

>>26668935

Works well enough. Half the guys here drink Ice-house and only Ice-house.

So are we on for the night now? I'm not a usual player, I just finished marathoning all the previous chapters last night and this is my first "Live" one so to speak

>>26669007
Welcome to the beginning of the end, anon.

I'm grabbing some booze myself for various crits.

I expect to be crying by the end of the night.

"Alright, let's do this," you say as you reach forward and take her hand. The air swirls around you for a moment as bright light glows from C.C.'s code and from the door, blinding you. You find yourself moving through some form of aether with a feeling not unlike what you imagine smelling a pan galactic gargle blaster would be like.

But you manage to evade permanent brain damage and find beautiful orange clouds swirling around you. You're standing on some sort of polished sandstone platform it seems, and it is entirely unlike anything you've seen before. Worst of all, you have been separated from C.C.

Alone in the mists with naught but your thoughts, and the sound of gears itching at the back of your mind, you see the mist begin to clear. There are two paths forward, two staircases leading away, and neither is the door you came through.

You have been presented a very simple choice.

Without waiting any more, you stuff your hands in your pockets and stroll off to the left, lest the fabric of materium decay beneath your feet. Clouds sweep around you, licking at your feet and obscuring the right path from you as you climb the steps of the left. Your feet carry you step after step through the sky where stone floats like bricks don't, and on and on you rise until you hear the sound of someone slowly clapping.

Not an applause type of clap, the conceited kind. A mocking type of clap rolling down the steps through the muffling clouds. But the it abruptly ends as you reach the top of the steps, and the clouds sweep away.

"You... I... I killed you. Ohgi dumped your body in the bay..."

"How nice to see you too Nicky. Did you miss me? I understand you've brought my dear C.C. here as well."

No no no FUCK YOU YOU'RE DEAD! What sort of bullshit magic is this? I pumped you full of lead and holes, you dont get to come back looking just normal!

"In the traditional sense perhaps, I did afterall cease bodily functions and what not, but you shouldn't let silly things like physics get in the way. We are after all, wielders of Geass, and just look where we are, home sweet home," Mao says as he points up and the clouds clear to reveal a celestial body resembling jupiter. It is the same body that you witnessed in your vision. "There's only so much I can tell you while I'm here. You're the one who should know these things anyways. And please, don't try those tricks again, for both of our sanities."

"Come, sit, and let's talk," he offers as he walks over to two chairs and takes a seat, waiting for you. "I really doubt you can resist the temptation to know."

You are starting to feel uneasy about loitering here.

"As you've said yourself, I have work to do, but -my- own work, -my- own agenda. So I'm afraid I can't sit and play tea time with you. If you want to tag along, then great I won't stop you if you do, but coming with or not I'm out."

"You've gone all quiet Nick, is something wrong? Feeling that vague urge to travel onwards to satisfy someone elses quest? Feeling like a bit of a pawn perhaps?"

>>26670411
Actually at this point I'm feeling more acknowledging that you aren't real and just continuing on what C.C. and I were doing before.

What do you think C.C.?

>>26670461
>>26670411
The meta voices are in agreement, bugger off, Mao.

>>26670140
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

I'm going to bed.

"Really now, can't you just condense the conversation into 2 seconds and beam it into my head? We're in a Thought Elevator after all, and I'm on a schedule."

"Hmm, what a shame. Perhaps the next one will be more talkative. Good luck out there I suppose, and try not to look up too much, you'll go blind if you stare at it. Say hello to C.C. for me, will you? I'm sure she'll be happy to hear that I'm out and about again," Mao says with a sigh.

You take a hesitant step forward and see the clouds clear away for you, revealing another set of stairs. Something deep inside you is pulling you forward, urging you to go on. Something that isn't yourself.

"You're so cruel without even realizing it. Not every gear can change it's place you know. So go continue on with your rush, maybe you'll figure out on your own what you are doing here, and who brought you here," Mao says as you shake your head and continue on, leaving the whispering ghost behind.

You step onto the stairs and march forward. A tingling in your inner ear catches your attention and you look back, to find that the way has been shut, the very steps beneath your feet are fading away as you tread upon them. Faster and faster they fade as you rush past, the fatigue of your injured body but a memory.

At last the clouds sweep back from around you to reveal the main structure of the Thought Elevator. You have reached the bottom, entrance level of the platform and the control area rises above you in ancient architecture. Above you is a man, a large and powerful man. His hair is long and white, and his build familiar, but his face is turned from you, waiting for you to approach him in the eyes of this world.

But first there is the steps, and the man they hold for you. His image is unmistakable, seared into your eyes upon his death.

Another spectre of your choices has risen to greet you. "Why did you shoot me Nick? Of all your actions, that's the one I can't understand. Everything else is flamboyance and absurdity, but by all rights you should have died when you did that. Did you think that you would be protecting someone by doing it? That you were a noble sacrifice or something?"

"Thinking? You -really- believe that thinking came in to play when I shot a person with a sakuradite detonator strapped to their chest? Please, you give me too much credit. Anyway, ciao you dead gnome, I wish I could kick you in the dick one last time, but I got places to go!"

>[x] Continue past the ghost

>Another spectre of your choices has risen to greet you.
Each ghost is a representation of the development of Nick as a character through the quest. To kill them would be to kill what has crafted our character to this point. Acknowledge the ghosts of the past, but move on for they are just that.

So wait, the Thought Elevator is going all The Sorrow on us?
Cool.
>>26671075
This.

Steamrolling through the roleplay I see, writing.

>>26671114

Honestly I think most people would vote to talk a bit. If it wasn't Frank the asshole or Mao.

>>26671128
Pretty much. Hell, we never really chatted with them too much when they were alive either. We were more occupied with trying to murder the fuck out of them.

"Thinking? You -really- believe that thinking came in to play when I shot a person with a sakuradite detonator strapped to their chest? Please, you give me too much credit. Anyway, ciao you dead gnome, I wish I could kick you in the dick one last time, but I got places to go!"

"You're gong to die Nick. I really don't think there is anything you can do about it anymore, not that you would anyways."

"Oh, wonderful, so you were geassing me to kill me," you say as you stride up to him, his vague form flickering like a shadow in a flame.

"It's just business Nick, it's just business. The only way you could have made it out alive was a path sealed long ago. No matter how much you and Zero struggled, you just never seemed to be able to break down the wall that is Brittania. V.V. is waiting for you up there and who knows, perhaps in the end I'll get to live again, see my wife and everything. But if you won't listen to me Nick, then you have to at least look up, look with that eye of yours."

When you look back, Frank is gone, and it is only you and V.V.

>>26671414
Have you started doing this at different times than normal? Or on different days or something?

>>26671454
the day of the week has always been erratic, but aside from fridays due to FNM, I've fairly reliably started at about 8 pm EST. Sometimes I let it start a bit late since everyone seems to be on the other side of the country and peak posting seemed to occur at about 1 am est anyways.

The quest has just been bleeding players

>>26671478
Well, I've been here since the beginning and I'll be here until the very end.

>>26671478
I think it might be because of all the shit that happened a few threads ago with the GEASS INSIDE GEASS stuff.

Or am i thinking of the wrong situation when people got hella pissed about something.

Rolled 29

>>26671478

I honestly consider it to be a miracle when you start up and I'm online. Because it's normally about 3 in the morning.

"So, you never answered me if you like Daft Punk or not."

"Do you know where we are right now Nemo?"

"Something about a thought elevator or some such. All I really know is that the laws of physics need not apply."

"Because this is a realm made of human thought rather than the shared illusion we term reality. It is here that the thing we call God resides. Do you understand what that means?"

"So this is like heaven or something?"

"Or something indeed," V.V. answers as he looks up into the sky. "God is but the great, collective unconscious of humanity that pulls everyone through their lives. God is what is to blame for the suffering of the world. And you are it's avatar, the embodiment of the evil that we fight against. You are a non-entity. A gear that should not be," he says as he finally turns back to you and the clouds begin to bleed away and reveal the dark and metallic nature of the realm.

"I don't know what the hell you're talking about V.V., stop talking in riddles damn it."

"You are the only riddle. You were but a normal person, but you were bestowed with impossible knowledge which changed your fate. Think back on your life these past days. Have you ever really been in control?"

"Of course I've been in control; you think someone else did all that?"

"That is exactly what I think Nemo, because that is how God works. Not with angels and brilliance, but by eschewing humanity with lies and deceptions. Whether you know it or not, you have been drawn here to finish the lie and stand atop all of humanity's accomplishments, as they crumble away."

Well, this tiny ass thread has now been archived. Next thread sunday.

Thoughts?

>>26671608
So if this is something like heaven does that mean I can make Daft Punk suddenly appear

I can't wait to surf V.V. straight out of the Thought Elevator. No one puts Nick in a corner!

"A pawn of God, you say? Well, a pawn once it's reached the either side of the board can be promoted and I'll wager that I've almost reached the other side of the board.

This pawn's got plans you see and let me tell you, no where in that plan does it involve seeing humanity fade to dust or being killed by you.

If I'm a gear that should not be, then let's see what I cause the machinery of the world to do. Tell me, if this place is the embodiment of the collective unconscious of humanity, how will it react to pure, unbridled manly spirit?"

Damn
