Interesting background noise, something bubbling. Is this some kinda internal world?

...aaaaaah, I see. Reality itself changing in response to the stimulation (I'm guessing it's a stimulant? this doesn't seem like sedation), that's clever.

More water noises.

...and he's moved from where he was. he hadn't realized he'd been going anywhere with it. or- no, I rewound, it's that he doesn't realize his own actions, he was just thinking about going to get it only to discover by the end of the thought that he'd acted already.

and it doesn't last as long--

oh geez that was. fast. okay.

okay I get why it doesn't work anymore, but why is it heavy now?

oh...oh he's not doing good. oh that's why it's heavy: he got so used to pink taking gravity away that he's not used to normal gravity anymore.

what's that one bubble of him holding multiple buttons? does part of him realize that this is becoming a habit already?

oh he just. has another one suddenly. okay.

WHAT HE MOVED AGAIN--

man Becker team really took the idea of "getting high" literally

really interesting that the new buttons don't always have an immediately obvious effect apart from removing enough of the weight of true normalcy to bring him back to what normal felt like before all this started.

geez you can barely see the colors now

not sure what the pink bubble on the far right is trying to say. if only he'd thought to do this earlier then he'd have his original high to help boost him?

man he didn't even see Orange right in front of him, the button in the distance is brighter

oh shoot-- well I guess technically that's a good thing?

uh...why are the polygons changing

OH WHAT THE HECK I HADN'T EVEN NOTICED EVERYTHING HAD GOTTEN SO LOW-RES

oh huh the bubbles were gone too. but they're back now

Orange no don't leave it's not that easy--

oh gosh...okay good, good job Blue

literally not getting as much air from the same breath

[speechless]

oh he found the bowl from Skim's AvG animated Fall Guys video

shutting out all senses?

interesting that trying to actively (mentally) fight it is portrayed as always a losing battle and the solution is to just dismiss the...cravings, I guess. it's almost like dealing with intrusive thoughts, which I guess the cravings are

oh he's so much brighter. damn he wasn't even that bright when he first blindfolded Blue

oh wow bright

(I appreciate that there's so much of an emphasis on having a social support system as much as the mindfulness stuff)

man the render quality went way up-- THERE'S WATER NOW!!?! we didn't even have that before!
