#os mapmaker

(Alright, I should get this over with before things get more complicated…)

Greetings. You may call me the Mapmaker. I am on a mission to learn about all currently known timelines and their residents. I hope you would not mind answering a few questions.

Interview: The Writer

[START]

⠀

Of all the timelines I have visited so far, yours is easily the most complex. So, to start simple, would you mind telling me about yourself?

Oh, I've been waiting for this!

Well, first off, I'm a World Machine operator.

I don't think there's many of those who are actively on here.

I'm also a writer, someone who enjoys making stories and characters and putting them on here!

...Well, I haven't been able to do that recently, considering everything that's been happening.

If your timeline is not listed and you would like your timeline’s residents be interviewed for a bio, reblog this post with your OneShot RP blog and I will add it.

You can find completed interviews under the tag #os bio interview.

I look forward to seeing you all for your interviews.

Greetings. You may call me the Mapmaker. I’m on a journey to gather information about all currently known timelines and their residents for…

…Oh. It is quite dark here. Surely not the ideal place for a spirit of greenery to reside.

Interview: Maize

[START]

⠀

If I may ask, why have you been rooted in such a place, devoid of any light? Surely your world has had its sun returned, right?

Ah, a journalist? It is little I can offer, I'm afraid. Perhaps our voices shall be enough, for this. I may... not have all the answers you need, inquisitive one, ...but I will attempt, nonetheless.

This place may be dark. But sometimes it gifts us light of sources unknown to myself.

It is where I was taken, after... well. After I aided our savior, with the strength I had left. I was blessed to see them one last time, at the end of their journey but...

Greetings, World Spirit. You already know who I am, yes? Because we do not have the time for introductions

You share this connection point with the Lightbringer, is that correct? Because I need you to do a favor.

With the loss of communication with the Writer, I fear that Light is going to try to search for him.

That’s exactly what they are planning on.

So, please, in order to keep them safe…

⠀

Do not allow Light to leave this timeline.

⠀

I would share more information if I could, but my absence elsewhere is putting others at risk.

The Writer will be okay. So please…keep Light protected.

[They aren't yet aware of this.]

[I'll inform them, but render the Pocket Machine useless to prevent them from getting involved.]

A new timeline! Welcome! You may call me the Mapmaker. Since you are new here, I believe there are some things I should let you know.

You see, this website acts as a singularity where numerous timelines converge. What this means is that you will likely run into different versions of the same people…

…including yourself.

It will likely feel weird talking to yourself at first, but you will certainly become used to it over time.

I believe that is all I have to share for now.

I look forward to getting to know you better, Lightbringer.

"first notif tysm !!" — entry 2

ohh i am so sorry ! i was working but i think i have some time to respond. i wasn't really expecting anything this early ! haha ;

ohh uh it's like, out of one of those sci-fi movies or whatever i guess. or like (in)famous pixel rpg games made in 2015 with funny skeletons.

unsure on really how to respond in case if this may be a joke but okay okay i can see what i can think of.

i'll remember that and all uh. i think one niko is enough as-is, but maybe they're doing something else different than working in retail ?

“…but if that were true, then only time should be affected in the physical and digital planes.”

“However, something appears to be affecting space as well…which should not be possible, unless…”

“…unless there’s another dimension on the metaphysical plane.”

Within The Inversion, the roles of time and space are, as the name implies, inverted.

Timelines manifest themselves physically in this dimension…as long as they cross through the Singularity.

What is the Singularity? Well, it is the point at which many different timelines intersect. Many of you know this singularity as “Tumblr.”

Contrary to popular belief, the vast majority of timelines are not linear. Timelines change shape depending on the actions and inactions of their residents.

Exiting The Inversion is simple; an object simply needs to make contact with a timeline to be sent to it.

Entering, however, is a completely different story. The only safe way to enter the inversion is through me. I possess the ability to return to The Inversion from any timeline on command, regardless of my position within that timeline. I can bring anyone back with me by choosing to return while holding their hand (or another limb if they do not have hands).

Although, besides directly accessing other timelines, there is little reason to want to enter The Inversion. The only other things you would find here are my workstation, the Fifh tank, and an infinite white void.
