Where do you insert a disc into a shirt? The sleeve? Wasn't that the upside to the computables Dave made in his session as opposed to his iShades? That it ran Sburb where his shades didn't? Or is that just by manner of him alchemizing the computer that had the disc uploaded as opposed to his iPhone, the tool in creating the iShades? Am I thinking about this too much?

Of course, I could be wrong. It wouldn't be the first time the players had to do some kind of double-mobius gofuckyourself to fix stuff.

Phoenixsprite: Appear.
Spritelog:
PHOENIXSPRITE: Hey.
IMPARA: Woah... Where'd you come from...
PHOENIXSPRITE: I was catching up with you.
PHOENIXSPRITE: You just ran off without even speaking with me.
PHOENIXSPRITE: That's not very polite.
IMPARA: Yeah... These things I gotta do are rather important...
PHOENIXSPRITE: Important enough to ignore my knowledge?
IMPARA: Look... I already know this shit...
IMPARA: Blah blah Heir of Time blah blah Land of Machinery and Electronics blah blah Prospit blah.
PHOENIXSPRITE: I suppose having been already given such knowledge is appropriate for your aforementioned role.
PHOENIXSPRITE: But do you know what I am?
IMPARA: You're my sprite...
PHOENIXSPRITE: That is true.
PHOENIXSPRITE: And yet it is insufficient to identify me.
IMPARA: So then what are you...
PHOENIXSPRITE: I am an emissary sent to aid your endeavour.
IMPARA: Okay... Right... Heirs get free shit...
IMPARA: But who are you an emissary of...
PHOENIXSPRITE: Do you really have to ask?
IMPARA: Not really... I guess it is kind of obvious...
IMPARA: Though up until now I thought he was a myth...
PHOENIXSPRITE: Funny that, how all - or at least most - of your myths are actually quite true... After a fashion.
IMPARA: So what... You're saying that the ancient pantheon is real...
PHOENIXSPRITE: After a fashion.
IMPARA: You know we gave up on that shit thousands of virui ago right...
PHOENIXSPRITE: That is fine. You don't care if anyone worships anymore, right?
IMPARA: No... Why would I...
PHOENIXSPRITE: Well, there you go.
IMPARA: So you're telling me that even though they're real... They don't give a shit that nobody gives a shit...
PHOENIXSPRITE: Sure.
IMPARA: Okay... I think you're just fucking with me now...
IMPARA: You can help or whatever later...
IMPARA: I have shit to do here...

Spritelog:
PHOENIXSPRITE: And just what business would you have here at the Theremin Mount?
PHOENIXSPRITE: Scratch Devices are dangerous.
IMPARA: You'll see...
Well, in Homestuck Bro had to break open the Beat Mesa long before the Scratch could start. It was mentioned that temporal energy needed to be released. Maybe Impara wants to do something with the temporal energy.
I assume he is a metal maja or something of the sort, based on his hands turning into metal blades temporarily.
just to clarify, he is destroying it, right?
not re-purposing it or activating it?

uh, thats possibly a spoiler....
oops?
anyway he is pretty cool guy so far.
She's a girl... I think...
The lips look a bit too well-defined for her to be a guy...
As for what kind of maja she is... Well yeah, she's a metal maja. It's not like that's a spoiler or anything. Everyone's had their power (or something to do with their power) as the first half of their handle so far.
PHOENIXSPRITE: Why did you do that?
IMPARA: We don't need it...
PHOENIXSPRITE: Really?
IMPARA: Yes...
PHOENIXSPRITE: Are you so sure of that?
IMPARA: Yes...
PHOENIXSPRITE: How can you be?
IMPARA: ...
IMPARA: We don't need it... And I don't like it...
PHOENIXSPRITE: Ah. How quaint.
PHOENIXSPRITE: The Heir won't accept her inheritance.
IMPARA: We don't need all that time shit...
IMPARA: I can do this without it...
IMPARA: Anyways I'm pretty sure Waramu's got it covered...
PHOENIXSPRITE: Perhaps she does.
PHOENIXSPRITE: But that doesn't mean you should reject your role.
IMPARA: ...
IMPARA: Look I've still got shit to do...
IMPARA: So I'm just gonna go ahead and do that instead of listen to you playing therapist...
IMPARA: Or whatever the fuck this cagey bullshit is...
PHOENIXSPRITE: Well, I am currently a sprite.
PHOENIXSPRITE: It is my prerogative to be cagey.
IMPARA: Whatever...
IMPARA: Later...

Luckily for you, your second errand is nearby. Well. It's not really luck. You put this here. After some modifications to the code of the SKRAN client and server programs, you got yourself server powers over the whole incipisphere. You were able to force the lands to load beforehand, instead of on entry like they would have without modification. You needed to do that so you could locate the Theremin Mount and place this thing.
Impara: Transportalize.
=>
You found something in the veil that intrigued you.
=>
There really isn't any other complex this large in the whole thing.
=>
You just wanted to check on it in person.
Yep. Everything seems to be in order. Good.
=>
Now for your last errand... You're just gonna use a computer around here. You'd rather Krozu not know about this yet. You probably could have alchemized some computerglasses or something to do this with, but in your rush to get these things done, you completely forgot about alchemizing.

MS: Okay... If by "efficient" you mean "murderous"...
ST: A good stabbing always gets right to the heart of a problem.

ST: What sort of Empire doesn't even have a proper Emperor, anyway?
MS: One that isn't completely backwards...
ST: Pff. An Empire without an Emperor isn't much of an Empire.

[I] Readers: Deal.
Recaplog:
Edgestuck began on nacabado 23rd, tafra 5, viru 10037 (otherwise known as August 18th, 2011), the 11th birth celebration (11 virui being roughly equivalent to 14 years) of our chief protagonist and electric maja, Krozu Kiragara. After a bit of fooling around and talking to friends on a chat client called pesterchum, she got around to receiving the game SKRAN as a present from her best friend, psychic maja Anzar Oscaldan. Krozu was, however, not all that interested in playing, and instead decided to run around her apartment at super electric speed and slam into her fridge like a doofus. Anzar had to use his psychic brain powers to teleport to Krozu and help her be not unconscious again, at which point she expressed some romantic and/or sexual inclinations towards him (because of the aforementioned birth celebration putting her at the age of consent for minors in the Maja Empire), to his immediate distress. They talked a bit after he left, and then Krozu talked to some more people, and then she finally got around to forging a game connection with Anzar as the server and herself as the client.
This allowed Anzar to manipulate her environment and place weird machines around and stuff. One of these things, the pre-punched card, landed on and tipped over the small statue of Hale, first Emperor of Axon, that was under Krozu's kaloi tree. This was regarded by her to be a bad omen as per popular superstition, much to the annoyance of Anzar. Another device on being activated did not begin a countdown, and released an entity called a kernelsprite. The countdown would have ticked down to the moment Krozu's apartment would be struck by a meteor, destroying her neighbourhood, except for the fact that the void floaters (read: satellites) of the SHIELD network blew up all the meteors with lasers. At least, those that weren't already blown up by glitchy skaian defense portals. As it stood, the countdown simply didn't count down, staying at 14:11. Though there was no demise to avoid, Krozu still used the devices to manufacture a special item that looked like a yellow train set. After powering the train set and crashing the train into the provided wall, she was whisked away to a realm called the medium, specifically the Land of Storms and Stone (LOSAS). The LOSAS is a harsh landscape, covered in jagged rocks and mountains with constant lightning storms roiling overhead. Despite this and the many underlings present, the land is occupied by friendly consorts, a race of turtles, which Krozu would eventually meet.
Before she entered the medium though, Krozu and Anzar prototyped her kernelsprite with her large television, transforming the sprite to bear its likeness, including the way it was broken by Anzar earlier. Half of its screen was shattered, and so too was half the sprite's face shattered. When Krozu entered the medium, the sprite's kernel hatched, thus imbuing all the enemies Krozu and her friends would face with properties of the sprite. The lesser adversaries Krozu faced first, Amber Imps, all had rectangular, half-shattered faces. They became more powerful and more radically mutated with each successive pre-medium prototyping.
After entering the medium, Krozu and Anzar chose to prototype the sprite with the statue of Hale, transforming it again. This prototyping had no effect on the enemies, since she was already in the medium, and the kernel had already hatched. Instead, only the sprite was affected, and it took on the appearance, personality, and memories of the legendary Emperor, becoming Halesprite, a game-supplied albeit customized guide for Krozu. He explained about squiddles and skaia, how Krozu would awaken to skaia's light, and how she must make her way there after gaining more power as the Sylph of Storms.
Next, it was time for Anzar to play, though he was loath to allow his assigned server player, fire maja Felanka Dajokriza, control over his environs. She was predictably an ass of a server, placing his machines all over the place instead of neatly in one room like he had placed Krozu's. After Anzar prototyped his kernelsprite with half of the doll he had ripped apart earlier, Felanka subsequently prototyped it with his hated "Dr. Brain" self-help book she gave him for his birth celebration last viru. Both of these prototypings would have an effect on the enemies once Anzar entered the medium and the kernel hatched. In spite for all this harrassment, Anzar made Felanka create his entry item herself, refusing to run her rat race. All the while, he worked on a tower on top of Krozu's apartment, which he had to do to help her reach the first gate, as explained to him by Dr. Brainsprite.
While this went on, a friend of Krozu and Anzar's, wind maja Salyo Ajobrinek, went out flying with his falcon Dozaj, and we got to see the Maja Empire in all its glory.
After some time, Felanka gave Anzar his special item - for him, a pink lock - which he needed to break to enter. He only did so after more harassment from Felanka whipped him up into a rage and he threw it, along with his cruxtruder and other assorted items, through his bedroom wall. The cruxtruder landed on the lock, breaking it, and he was brought to the Land of Thought and Lightning (LOTAL) where Dr. Brainsprite revealed him to be the Maid of Mind. The LOTAL is a lovely, green place of knowledge, covered in well-stocked libraries maintained by the orangutan consorts where one can find just about any knowledge there is. Its skies are filled with teal clouds shooting lightning at eachother in a pattern reminiscent of a neural network, which Anzar learns when he is struck by this lightning, a message from the cloud mind telling to clean up an infestation. What this infestation is or why he has to clean it up has yet to be seen. After this, Anzar decided to go and map out the LOTAL, though he had forgotten to alchemize some portable computing unlike Krozu with her holoshirt, who was also exploring her land at this time.
Salyo returned home from flying to find that Felanka had been angrily messaging him, wanting to begin the process of playing, as he was slotted up to be her server. He complied, and they began her entry process. Salyo ended up prototyping Felanka's kernelsprite with the ashes of her favourite trashy romance novel that she had accidentally burned up earlier in a fit of arousal whilst reading it. She was distraught to have such an obvious indicator of this guilty pleasure of hers, though it didn't take too long for her to get over this. The sprite was now Thalascisprite, having taken on the likeness and personality of the protagonist of the novel. Felanka's special item was a pile of red paper currency that she burnt up to get in. She entered the Land of Inferno and Mud (LOIAM), a desolate place dominated by mud of varying solidity and liquidity, along with frequent inferno geysers and the occasional pool of lava. She quickly set about exploring it.
Salyo, looking for reprieve from Felanka's attitude, spoke with another friend of his, water maja Waramu Gecrani, who was his server player. She had been putzing about her room after staring at her tol's bridge (an arch of glowing metaparticles along the sun's orbit only visible at night) for a while when a nakarin had entered her room from the window. After failing to muster the will to throw the pest animal back out the window, she endeavoured to ignore it in the hopes of it leaving, despite urges to have tea with it, as had been her custom in virui past.
In her exploration, Krozu found some of her turtle consorts living under an outcropping just outside of a cave. She was about set to explore the cave with the turtles, who had informed her of its interior being a settlement. However, she first decided to climb these turtles' houses to get a better look at an odd mountain she saw earlier in her travels. While looking at this mountain, she saw a part in the cloud cover, a rare event indeed. Even rarer was that through this part, a far away skaia was clearly visible to her. Then she was directly struck by lightning. Being an electric maja, this was not instantly fatal. Instead she absorbed the electricity and it coursed through her body, accelerating her senses and mental processes in a state commonly called overcharge. In this state, gazing upon skaia, she saw many terrible things, but quickly discharged the electricity in an explosion, since she could not hold that much power for very long. This explosion knocked her out, and she was only woken up by the noise of Anzar pestering her, he having finally made a piece of portable computing after returning home from his exploration. She told him of her overcharge, though she could not remember much of it except how terrible it was. He spoke of how he had built her tower up to the first gate, though was disappointed to hear that she could not yet ascend it. He also spoke of a strange phenomenon, the LOTAL being finite and spheroid in shape. Such was bizarre to the maja, having come from a reality wherein the infinite matter of the universe all rests along an infinite flat plane with an infinite layer of iron on bottom projecting an infinite magnetic field that results in something analagous to what we would call gravity, covered by an infinite mantle of lava which coalesces on top in all (infinite) places into a crust covered in most (but still infinite) places by an infinite sea dotted intermittently with an infinite number of world-islands commonly referred to as toli. Did I mention it was infinite?
Krozu entered the turtle cave town, all the while being watched by Dr. Jack Noir, MD, Archagent of Derse, by order of the Black Queen. He really didn't want to sit there and watch this dumb girl all day, so when the Heedless Breaker popped up with news of bunny consorts from LOIAM infesting the market square, he jumped at the chance to do something else. This something else was killing the bunnies, which had a tendency to become murderous around people, strangely excepting the Clodpate Deputy who had brought them to Derse in the first place. Jack ordered CD and HB to go to LOIAM to kill all the bunnies; CD to keep him busy, HB to actually get bunnies killed. The two dersite agents' arrival on LOIAM coincided with Felanka's.
Having not much else to do while waiting for Krozu to enter LOTAL so they could adventure together, Anzar was at one of the many libraries, reading a book. In particular, the lost fifth journal of Hale. In this book, a relevant tale was regailed about how Hale saw and investigated a meteor impact; a strange event in a universe where such things as meteors do not (or at least should not) exist. In the crater he found an ornate jewelry chest containing a note upon which was written a prophecy of future doom, and the process that must be started to avoid such, involving the summoning of the mythical Phoenix King.
Back on Tol Maja, Salyo, having already began playing SKRAN with Waramu as his server, was having a conversation with his friend, plant maja Joran Kilanadar, when he saw a grave, but exciting, sight: a fire dragon! The dragon was attacking his tower town, Calinar, and completely owned the citizens and constables that went out to ward it off. It also completely owned Dozaj, who also went out to ward it off. Dozaj crashed into Salyo's room through his window, right into his kernelsprite. Luckily, someone had the presence of mind to alert the Imperial Air Force about the whole dragon thing, and a fighter jet came along and shot some missiles at it. It was blasted back and crashed head first into Calinar. It wrecked Salyo's room, and having touched the kernelsprite, was also prototyped. The followup fighter pilot was confused to note the damage to Calinar and the lack of dragon.
Felanka was well underway in her exploration of LOIAM, having already found a pile of bunny consort corpses. Leading away from this corpse pile were tracks in the not-so-dry mud which she followed all the way to CD and HB's landing site. Rightly proclaiming her status as the Rogue of Rage, she attacked HB, though found herself being punched in the gut by him. Simultaneously, after blowing apart his special item - a beige nest - Salyo had entered the Land of Currents and Force (LOCAF). Populated by dragon consorts, LOCAF is a world with no solid ground, only various islands floating in the sky crosscrossed by harsh currents frequently leading to fists on springs that pop out when you're pulled close. Salyo was victim to one of these, despite the warnings of Dozajsprite. As the draconavian sprite brought his charge to safety, back on LOIAM Thalascisprite screamed at HB and CD, her scream being loud enough to stun them long enough for her to bring Felanka to safety as well.
Waramu was able to enter the Land of Rain and Flowers (LORAF) with Joran as her server after bursting apart her special item - a blue balloon - by filling it with water. LORAF is a predictably rainy place covered in flowers of varying sizes, from simple fields to whole jungles, populated by nakarin consorts. Speaking of nakarini, Waramu prototyped the one in her house after her father came home and killed it. After entry, the fully formed sprite took revenge on her father, and she was forced to prototype him as well, creating Fathersprite. Both events were traumatizing, though she has stayed rather composed afterwards, mostly through avoiding her sprite. She acclimated quickly to her Seer of Waves powers, seeing various future possibilities in any moving water, which is rather plentiful on LORAF. She went exploring/imp killing.
Krozu, having mostly finished her exploration of LOSAS, spoke with the turtle elder about finding a way home. The elder spoke of a return node, a kind of gate that always brings you home. However, this gate was blocked by some monsters, which Krozu had to fight. The Copper Basilisks were easy enough, by tricking the Ferromagnet Ogre into stepping on them. But the Ogre itself was much more difficult for Krozu, as like the Basilisks it was immune to her electricity. It nearly probably killed her, if it wasn't for Halesprite rescuing her. He had been following her, secretly making sure she was safe. Krozu was annoyed at having to be helped but wasn't about to complain about having her life saved. He healed her up and she went through the return node. Sprites cannot go through gates, so Halesprite has had to take the long way back. Finally home, Krozu was able to ascend her tower...
To find that Felanka had built a penis on top of Anzar's house! When he himself got home, he completly flipped his shit and headed straight for the gate to LOIAM, but not before Krozu was able to grab on to him. It was revealed that all this harassment on Felanka's part was in fact an extremely misguided attempt at flirting with Anzar, and that she completely intended to get in his pants. Anzar was not amused by this, and in fact wanted nothing of the sort to do with her. Still completely angry at her, he probably would have killed her via suffocation in not-so-dry mud if it wasn't for Krozu to the rescue with a volt tackle. Felanka survived, however, after stealing their rage using her Rogue of Rage abilities and using this newfound strength to pop out of the mud. She blew some fire at them and scared them so much that they just headed straight for the gate to LOCAF. Felanka then wandered LOIAM for a bit, gave a good portion of her rage to some bunnies, and went on a Wild Hunt with them which resulted in an explosion when she punched HB in the face. This explosion didn't phaze her too much, and she got right back into the fray, ripping HB's head off. CD fled back to Derse. Having accomplished her mission to avenge her bunny consorts, Felanka's rage subsided and she went home to a message from Krozu, talked to Joran, and went to sleep.
Joran, the Ward of Life, with energy maja Telada Irscan as his server player, entered the Land of Trees and Flame (LOTAF) by blowing on his special item: a green, dead dandelion. LOTAF is a forest world threatened by constant wildfires. Joran was able to prototype one of his celestial soul portraits before entry, specifically a rather colourful one of a man at a table with some coffee (read: Andrew Hussie). Thus was Soulsprite born. Joran did a little exploring, but never really strayed far from his house.
When Krozu and Anzar arrived on LOCAF, the former berated the latter for his actions, who himself was rather aghast at them. Sufficiently satisfied by his guilt, Krozu tolerated his presence. Then they and Salyo went to get some adventuring done, though only after Krozu spontaneously manifested her Sylph of Storms powers, healing her own stormy feelings about LOCAF having no solid ground by generating a stormcloud she could ride. This adventuring ended when Krozu punched a Diamond Giclops in the face and there was an explosion. Krozu crashed into a tree and couldn't resummon the stormcloud, so Anzar teleported the three back to Salyo's house, Krozu wrote a message to Felanka that the latter would later read, and the three climbed the tower Waramu had built to reach the gate to LORAF. When they got there, Krozu tried to recruit Waramu into their adventuring party, but she declined, having found the Floral Plateau which she was set to explore. Not wanting to stay in the rain, the three went to LOTAF and left Waramu to her business. She climbed the Stem of Trials and nearly got to the Floral Plateau, but her ascent was halted by a Giclops shaking the giant flower, and a Minion of her Denizen, Python, knocking her off the stem. Waramu had a vision of the possibility of her reaching the God Tiers after smacking into the ground, but she didn't understand it and decided, rather more sanely, to form the rain into a slide of water she could ride safely to the ground. This water slide went through a nakarin consort village, and she ended up sitting near a few of them. Rather exhausted after this long and troubling day, she went to sleep.
Telada, Mage of Space, servered by light maja Kazuno Haraj, recently-prototyped robot buddy Alkozsprite in tow, entered the Land of Metaparticles and Frogs (LOMAF) by blasting her special item - an orange kaloi fruit - with her beams of pure metaparticles. LOMAF is a land in constant night, with vast groves of kaloi trees and a ring of metaparticles around the planet mimicing a bridge. Telada was busy speaking with Kazuno when she fell down some stairs, got knocked unconscious, and awoke on Prospit. She didn't stay long, however, as she was woken up by a frog and found herself in her room, brought there by Alkozsprite.
On LOTAF, Joran was excited to have Krozu, Anzar, and Salyo over. They however did not continue adventuring, as they preferred to have some rest first. Krozu and Salyo went to sleep. Soon after, Joran left to gather grist for his tower and alchemization, leaving Anzar to watch over Krozu and Salyo.
Salyo, Waramu, and Felanka all awoke on Derse, in that order. Felanka was excited to see them, and once again in a misguided attempt at flirting, copped a feel on Waramu, who was none too amused. They started fighting, and Salyo, not wanting to see his friends fighting anymore, broke them up with some gusts of wind. He completely misjudged the amount of force he put into these however, and sent Felanka crashing into another dream tower. Such a ruckus awoke the Witch of Heart, who was horrified to find both her dream- and realselves awake at once. Her realself was, however, quickly knocked out by some guy, and her dreamself disappeared too.
Kazuno, with rock maja Scira Balanvar as his server, entered the game. He prototyped the remains of his car (resulting in an as of yet unseen sprite) that Telada had blew up earlier as revenge for placing her game machinery in erratic positions around her complex and breaking Alkoz. She did not believe she actually blew up his car, however, believing the game to merely be a virtual reality. Kazuno fired a laser at his special item - a golden traffic light - and entered the Land of Day and Night (LODAN), a relatively innocuous-looking place that has a quick day/night cycle where all the underlings come out at night. He ended up fighting a Photon Giclops, and punched it in the face, unwittingly utilizing his Thug of Light abilities to force an explosion - a rather unlikely event in this situation - to happen. Through the auspices of circumstantial simultaneity, this event of facepuncing was linked to two other events of facepunching - Krozu's and Felanka's - which resulted in explosions in them as well. He was blasted away to somewhere yet unseen, though he did presumably go unconscious from this, as he was shown to have awoken on Prospit. Krozu had awoken earlier, seeing only a glimpse of Telada as she disappeared. Krozu reveled in the fame brought to her by her status as a princess of prospit, and spoke with a reporter who told her about the Battlefield in Skaia, and how Prospit and Derse war over it. Soon after, Kazuno arrived in a car and insulted Krozu. Easily provoked, Krozu began fighting with him.
Scira had connected to her server player, ice maja Velor Emalkas, but the latter's sister, Zalirn Emalkas, had been fighting with him the whole time, leaving Scira's living room in a mess of machines and furniture. Soon after, a bookcase was dropped on the pile and the cruxtruder cap smacked into the floor, popping off. The kernelsprite shot out right into the mess and all the machines were prototyped at once as a whole. Miffed, Scira quickly coded up a trojan and sent it to Velor, who managed to run it. This allowed her to control his computer and take control away from him so Zalirn couldn't screw anything else up. Using Velor's server program, Scira prototyped one of her many computer towers, the second prototyping giving the sprite its full form as Alchemysprite and allowing it to perform functions such as reading the pre-punched card, informing Scira that she was the Thief of Stones, and forming her special item - a brown server - which she blew up via hacking. She entered the Land of Mountains and Rivers (LOMAR), a rugged land of jutting mountains being slowly eroded away by the many rivers flowing around on them.
Velor managed to connect to his server player, physical maja Yaro Vesctalk, who ended up just making Velor's special item - a maroon doll of Zalirn - himself, since Velor obviously wasn't going to get anything done with Zalirn around. Yaro gave the quarreling siblings the doll, which they fought over. In the midst of this it slipped out of their hands and landed on its head, breaking, and bringing Velor into the medium. When the light cleared, he found Zalirn in the exact same position as the doll, her head similarly cracked open, and very much dead. Velor added his sister to the sprite that she had earlier prototyped with a princess doll, forming Zalirnsprite. She told him he was the Bard of Cool.
Back on LOTAF, Anzar found himself being swarmed by underlings after Joran had left. He could not hold them all off, and implored Joran return to help him. However, Joran could not get back in time, and the still sleeping Krozu and Salyo were taken away by a giant, unnamed kind of underling.
Yaro was now connected to metal maja Impara Kozen, the one who had brought everyone together to play SKRAN in the first place. As per his wishes, she set up his training course with the alchemization equipment, and he set about running it. However, on the tightrope, his cruxite dowel fell off of his head and he slammed into part of the course in his attempt to retrieve it. This resulted in a cascade of destruction that ended up with Yaro and the alchemiter on the ground in the wheat fields, and a dead bolkasc that Yaro decided to prototype into a yet unseen sprite. Yaro broke his special item - a tan fist - with a brofist and entered the Land of Body and Mind (LOBAM), a lush and misty land dotted by statues dedicated to both feats of the body and feats of the mind.
Impara, the Heir of Time, was now ready to enter, and she pestered Krozu, her server player. Krozu was however still asleep, fighting Kazuno on Prospit. Impara spammed Krozu, leading dream Krozu to get a headache and lose concentration, providing an opening for Kazuno to deliver a knockout punch that woke up real Krozu. Krozu quickly connected to Impara and deployed her machinery, then set about trying to wake up Salyo. Soon after, however, a mysterious person in red armour broke through the wall of the room they were in, but was assaulted by the monster that had brought Krozu and Salyo there before anything else could happen. Impara crafted her special item - a gray phoenix - that came alive, set itself ablaze, and flew into the kernelsprite, breaking and bringing Impara into the medium as it prototyped itself. She entered the Land of Machinery and Electronics (LOMAE), a gray land covered in factories with electronic circuits coursing everywhere. She at once traveled to the Theremin Mount, her requisite Time player Scratch Device, and destroyed it, claiming to not need it, and admitting to not liking it. She then went to a nearby transportalizer that brought her to a complex on a large asteroid in the veil, from which she contacted a mysterious black text guy about him playing SKRAN.
Then Act 2 ended and you came to me for this ridiculous wall of text. I hope you're happy.
