HAS ANYBODY SEEN MY GOD

You know what? I think this could be fun. Where do I meet you to help with this?

the nearest door i will find you

Oh hell yeah. So I should just... start opening doors?

yes

Huh. Felt like I was holding on for ages. Impressive door obliterating skills though

[orpheus holds the door open, almost seeming impatient.]

*Sargon, being Sargon, absolutely does not notice, and enters the door in a far more casual pace than Orpheus might like. But he does enter*

[nobody replies. probably a good thing, because the nearest being capable of understanding english would've killed him for that.]

(( ooc Utur gets "Paradise" by QueenPb

(( ooc Sargon gets "I'm Gonna Win" by Rob Cantor

Utur at the last brownie and I cannot yell at them because they are hurt so I am making shit up about moss to piss them off lol

wait do you not actually eat moss

Oh I absolutely do but it all looks the same to me. I cannot tell any moss apart. I am pretending I do to annoy Utur

No, I don't provide quests I'm not that kind of researcher. I was informed something has been happening recently, and I figured you'd be as good as anyone to ask. I'd force the answer out of my experiment, but they keep snapping my control off.

Oh heavens no, I do not possess the ability to fully control another's mind. It's closer to a compulsion I can enact, given time or effort it can be shaken off. Besides if I really wanted to control their mind I'd not have given their entire soul to the Memory. That'd ruin the experiment, and the tests I hope to preform here. Nothing dangerous, if you're concerned; I just plan to test my soul's tether to the subject.

By testing the tether I am basically giving them instructions and seeing if it has staying power. Do you really think a morally sound person would summon forth a soul and tie it to themself? And yes actually, I do know how souls work. In fact, knowing how they work is my profession. And if you were to proclaim me a Memory, you'd be incorrect. A Memory is a type of ghost created by a soul rubbing off onto a location and metaphorically engraving an impression onto it. They will eternally repeat a set of noises, actions, or create a lasting feeling until they are scraped off the location. Also I must thank you for making me aware my hair still grows despite my transformation. I had thought the termination of my physical form would cease that.

Yes, I am aware there are no Memories here. As I said, I dragged the rest of the soul to this plane of existence through the Memory, attaching it to this plane via a mixture of soul magic and technology. The subject was labelled as 'Avit' after appearing, which they still go as to my understanding. Also I've never been shocked by exposed wiring on a vehicle, I've only gotten shocked by exposed wiring on malfunctioning lab equipment.

The fuck is an updawg?

I spent the last thirty-seven years in an isolated underground laboratory doing experiments on myself without any contact with living beings.

You have literally admitted to mind controlling and experimenting on someone I like, and think of as a possible friend. Even if you have no concept of how people work, I think you can put things together and figure out that I do not have any intention of helping you. I would rather kick your ass.

I am going to lose my shit - this is why there is only one scientist I respect. Did you even do anything to learn about what OSHA is like before coming here? Or after coming here? Or anything? Even I know a lot of people here eat souls. That is just how it is. And considering this interaction, you were definitely attacked with provocation. I feel very provoked right now.

I barely got eight words with the janitor, and the entire time they were trying to get me to leave without explaination. Alam was much more direct with why he wanted me to leave. The other time some robot rammed into me while I was standing in a hall. Not to mention the beasts in the basement, who'll try to attack me for being remotely near. Also I didn't exactly come here, I was busied trying to track down Avit through our linked existences and appeared in the basement here somehow. I just want to figure out how that happened, how to stop it from happening, and leave. My original plans didn't involve actually testing Avit's end at all because I had assumed it impossible due to their formly comatose state.

I can't believe that this is by far the longest conversation I've managed to have here and it's been about as helpful as a stack of soft bricks. Also I don't think Alam and me are exactly comparable, considering our likely very different fields of study. You wouldn't compare a microbiologist with a theologist, for an example.

I have seen no evidence that souls are harmed by the process. Again, as I stated before, many ghosts do it willingly and on their own. Any harm from a similar process would have been from a mistake, so I have no reason to believe they were harmed. I tried to research into their past, but their Memory was not visual and did not contain a name so there was no way for me to start that. And you fully do not understand how long they were comatose before I even began research into becoming a ghost. All the tests after they were manifested were either observations or attempts to wake them.

I did not need to ask, I used magic to do a very similar process to what I did to Avit to temporarily relocate a spectral object beforehand. The object had been designed to be easily damaged during the process, however it was in the exact same condition when it returned. Do you know how rare and far between Memories are? I know of five in the entire USA. As you said before, I am unionless, so it was all coming out of my pockets. I have never been a particularly rich person, funding a laboratory and research takes a lot of money. What spare tender would I have had to travel to find a visual Memory?

Buddy you research ghosts. If you have enough money to make a lab you can travel around. Pretty sure literally nobody was paying you to research ghosts. Like. Did you have a day job or something? Were you a waiter? Nobody really wants to know that much about ghosts frankly! Because most people know to leave the dead well enough alone! Why were you even studying ghosts in the first place??? What was the point??? There are easier ways to become a different species than that, I know firsthand! Were you obessed with immortality or something?????

I was a historical fiction writer in my free time. And many people would like to know about ghosts, especially the angry ones that attack the living. My actual field of study was into the human soul, and ghosts are only soul which makes them the most convenient source to study. My transformation was going to happen at some point, I had figured I'd just skip the dying part. My hindsight would have been useful if I got it as foresight.

I learned how to remove my corporeal form, not how to alter my soul into something else. Despite what you might've assumed, I am not hubristic enough to alter my or anybody else's soul.

Forgive me if I do not take your word for it, considering everything I know about you. As funny as it is that you basically turned yourself into an unshelled peanut or whatever, I do not trust you.

That is understandable, however you have more information about me than I you. Currently all I know about you is that your soul feels like it used to be human, you're quite judgmental, and you assume far too much. In other words, enough about me let's talk about you.

I studied the soul not eldritches, I clearly don't know all the terminology. Who is your god? is there any religious scripture you follow?

It is terminology for all post-humans, not just eldritches who used to be human. And I cannot just say His name, it is disrespectful. There is no real scripture, or none that I remember at least. He is a very forgiving God in that regard. And most regards.

I assume that aspect is not passed to his followers. Did your blessing bring any negative side effects? Do you know how it happened?

Obviously there are negative side effects, everything has a cost. I am not going to bemoan them or anything, I accept them as part of life. It is just regular stuff like pain, some moments of body dysmorphia, etc. I do know how it happened, but that is private.

Understandable. Do you know if you began to understand things differently post-human?

I have no idea. I just went with the flow frankly. I did not question it whatsoever.

So you did not document your experience and failed to continue the scientific method. What is your god the god of? Do you worship more than one entity, or is it just the one?

I don't measure energy in the air, I am not a meteorologist. Most religious rites, rituals, and other practices have some documentation somewhere. Are there any other followers of this god of science?

Unfortunate. Is your god one sustained by belief?

No, He was voted in by peer review.

An odd method to becoming a god, but it certainly is one. Being post-human, do you know if you're fundamentally different from eldritches who were always eldritches? Such as feeling things differently, for an example.

Fundementally no, it is just the trauma that makes us different. I guess being in a human form is easier? I have not exactly asked

It makes sense to not have asked if you never questioned it. One last question, are you okay with me keeping a transcript of these answers?

No, I don't provide quests I'm not that kind of researcher. I was informed something has been happening recently, and I figured you'd be as good as anyone to ask. I'd force the answer out of my experiment, but they keep snapping my control off.

Understandable. Do you know if you began to understand things differently post-human?

I have no idea. I just went with the flow frankly. I did not question it whatsoever.

So you did not document your experience and failed to continue the scientific method. What is your god the god of? Do you worship more than one entity, or is it just the one?

I don't measure energy in the air, I am not a meteorologist. Most religious rites, rituals, and other practices have some documentation somewhere. Are there any other followers of this god of science?
