None. Eat the floating objects.
Be the rainbow one.

They're not edible. And the rainbow one would be hazardous.

>Indigo. Indigo is nice.

Anyway, I think we should be the orange character, since he's probably the least evil after ACE.

Based on complete randomness, the view switches to another of the Secret Seven.

You are now this person. What do you do?

Actually, I think it's the seven deadly sins:

IRA: Wrath
INV: Envy
ACE: Sloth
SUP: Pride
Yellow person: Greed? (Yellow = gold)
Orange person: Gluttony?
Indigo person: Lust?

That's a possibility, but why are they called what they're called?

METER/THEME SPECULATION BECAUSE WHY NOT:
IRA: Rage, duh.
INV: Spite? That Dagger of Spite is your chroma, so.
ACE: Rest, maybe. Not sure he's done enough to warrant any other guesses...
SUP: Superiority, or something similar. You've mentioned it a few times.
Yellow person: inb4 happiness.
Orange person: Curiosity.
Indigo person: Compassion.

OR

IRA: Grumpy
INV: Bashful
ACE: Sleepy
SUP: Happy
Yel: Sneezy
Ora: Dopey
Ind: Doc

or a re-ordering of the above.

Some of the meters are definitely a possibility if the seven dwarves are a little more far-fetched.

Your gloves are too chewy to chew off! They taste lovely, but almost everything tastes lovely.

And those stalagmites are really brittle. Sharp, though.

Gul examin hole in your hand?

You do! It's really simple! And your inventory is basically just it, because you haven't found anything else.

And your gloves have dots on the back!

> Do something dopey.
> Gnaw on your shirt.
> Explore your surroundings. What layer are you on, again?

This is Layer -7, and it has a pervading feel of spikiness.

And you can't reach your shirt with your mouth without taking it off! And doing that would probably be unwise.

> GUL: Ahem. There is a spider on your face.

You thought there were only gremlins this far down, not spiders. Or maybe it switches to something else at the lowers.

((Orange....GUL...Gullable?))

Maybe he is, but is that anything to do with his name? And why then is the sleepy ACE called ACE rather than SLE, or whatever?

IRAte
SUPerior

Possibly. IRAte is certainly descriptive, but where did the word come from?

[Razorhead]

Ira is Latin for anger, if that has anything to do with it.


EDIT: According to the almighty Wikipedia:

Luxuria: lechery/lust
Gula: gluttony
Avaritia: avarice/greed
Acedia: acedia/discouragement/sloth
Ira: wrath
Invidia: envy
Superbia: pride

I neither confirm nor deny, but that seems to fit so far, does it not?

I'm being deliberately vague, but there are many more themes to discover. Like what the shadow people's deal is.

You find a thing. It's quite huge.

And it's only one image, but I have Thursday-related problems.

[Armok]

> eat thing

[Woodledude]

Explore the thing. See if you can find edible things.

[PersonPerson]

If there isn't any then eat the thing.

[Shadow Phoenix]

Search the thing. Big edible things inside, aren't they?

[Naristar]

Are those doors....they look like doors

[K25fF]

> eat thing

If there isn't any then eat the thing.

Edibility: Dubious.

Oh, who cares! You can sort of pry bits loose, and it's crunchy. So it's food.

Explore the thing. See if you can find edible things.

Search the thing. Big edible things inside, aren't they?

You enter the structure. There appears not to be anything edible in sight.

Are those doors....they look like doors

Yes, they are.

They seem to be very finely balanced, so they should be easy to open.

Right or left?

What is it with the creepy shadow things and duality?

[Shadow Phoenix]

Left

The middle. Walk through the wall.
If that doesn't work scream and burst through the right door.

[K25fF]

The middle. Walk through the wall.

It's really quite strong rock, unlike the stuff outside.

If that doesn't work scream and burst through the right door.

Left wins. The right one seals itself. And something smells delicious.

Oooh. Also, I've made a banner for Reality Stack, which you can see in my signature, hopefully.

Eat pedestal.
Ignore anything that's actually edible.
