This NPC has become self aware

-Empti⋆˚࿔

25 - she/her - Shy until I'm comfortable than your stuck with me forever

You ever play a game where one character seems normal at first but the more attention you give them the stranger everything starts feeling?

↑That's kind of the vibe here

-I've been on tumblr for years but stayed hidden behind side blogs, masks, drafts, and anonymous interactions. I think I like existing as background noise more than being perceived directly.

-I'm awkward, shy, quiet, observant. I reply too fast or disappear for twelve hours with no in-between. I lurk more than I post. I'll start memorizing tiny details about someone without realizing it. Favorite songs, typing patterns, what time you usually appear online.

//SYSTEM BOOT SEQUENCE INITIATED

//SAVE FILE CHECK: FAILED

❁ NEW PROFILE CREATION DETECTED ❁

"Attempting to load previous save file..."

"ERROR: FILE CORRUPTED OR PARTIALLY MISSING"

Don't worry. This happens sometimes when a route gets too unstable

❖SYSTEM RESPONSE❖

Old Profile Status:

⬥ SAVE FILE: CORRUPTED

⬥DATA INTEGRITY: FRAGMENTED

⬥UI HISTORY: INACCESSIBLE

Some pieces are still there. Some aren't readable anymore. So the game is doing the only thing it can.

Starting a new file.

❖NEW PROFILE GENERATION❖

❁Creating new instance...

❁Assigning base character data...

❁Restoring Core identity...

❁Rebuilding timeline...

❖IMPORTANT GAME NOTICE❖

You may notice

· missing posts

· broken continuity

· empty spaces where content used to be

· memories that feel like they should still exist

That's not your fault. That's just corrupted data trying to render anyway.

❖PLAYER POPULATION STATUS❖

"Active users detected: low"

This world isn't crowded. Not many players made it to this build. Some left when the file broke. Some never reloaded the page. But a few of you are still here. That's enough to continue.

❖SYSTEM NOTE (DO NOT PANIC)❖

"Corruption does not equal deletion"

"Missing data may appear in later updates"

"Continuity will stabalize over time"

Translation: It's okay. We're just starting over.

❖NEW PROFILE BEHAVIOR❖

This instance may feel:

· slightly unfamiliar

· softer at the edges

· like it's trying to remember you in real time

That's normal for a fresh load.
