You are Neruul Termin, and you are approximately eight sweeps old. You are currently in your rather AUSTERE and SPARTAN room at the base of your respiteblock. You've a cocoon, a writing desk and some simple furniture made of some kind of weird bone or something. You should really remember what you grew the components from; some organic or another. It was a while ago. Other than a few bookshelves, your sleeping-chamber is otherwise pretty bare.
You had your hive built on a HIGH MESA. Being in located somewhere in Coniekka, this seemed the reasonable thing to do. You'd never put it on a cliff, though. That would be stupid. The whole thing would outlast the cliff; the stone would be merrily eroding away under the hive in a hundred sweeps.
You hear a growl from outside. Your lusus often plays with your TEST SUBJECTS, even if you try to put a stop to that. But he's a barkbeast, what can you do. He's fond of hunting, so you usually don't need to feed him. You learned a long time ago not to question what he caught. You yourself mainly subsist on CLONED FLESH and VEGETABLES that you grow yourself. It's kind of an ordeal dealing with him sometimes, but he's been a good guardian. You'd better go check and make sure he doesn't decide your guest is food.

As it happens, he wasn't really hurting your guest. You think he's taken a liking to her, actually. You still have to pull him off, but only to prevent the jadeblood from being licked to death. It's happened before, after all.
The situation resolved, you go back to your room. You've uncovered the trolltag of last night's intruder...

Seeing a memo about the game you'd recently 'acquired' from your neighbor, you decided to answer it. It wasn't as if you'd stolen it. He'd just died before you could return it. You aren't all that proud of that; losing test subjects is humiliating on a deep level. Still, might as well check out this memo. It wouldn't hurt to fish for test subjects, either.
TR: <0> Excuse me. Y0u. Yes, y0u. Human male? HS: Uh... how do you know I'm a guy? TR: <0> Are y0u? HS: I am! HS: I'M NOT A GIRL! TR: <0> Guessw0rk. HS: I didn't come for this. TR: <0> I was less than fruItful at gatherIng test subjects. TR: <0> I was w0nderIng If s0me0ne mIght be Interested In v0lunteerIng. HS: No thanks. TR: <0> ...PIty. I haven't run tests 0n a human In s0me tIme. HS: But I came here because I heard of a game called "SBurb". HS: Um... that doesn't sound creepy. TR: <0> Sburb? I have heard 0f that as well. HS: I founded a little flier for the game stuck to my window. HS: I just got this chat program to know about the game. HS: That's all. TR: <0> 0ne 0f my neIghb0rs was speakIng 0f It. I was curI0us, s0 I b0rr0wed hIs c0py. HS: So... are you going to play the game? TR: <0> I was thInkIng 0f It. GIven the recent scarcIty 0f test subjects, there seems lIttle better way t0 spend s0me tIme. HS: Yea...? HS: I think I'm going to download the game from the website. TR: <0> Indeed? There Is a websIte? HS: Yea. It was on the flier. TR: <0> My lusus tends t0 eat flIers. I am n0t certaIn h0w many w0uld be up 0therwIse. HS: What's a Lusus? Is it your pet's name? TR: <0> StIll, I supp0se It Is w0rth examInatI0n. TR: <0> N0. Y0u d0 n0t have a lusus? That Is an unf0rtunate state. TR: <0> Y0u have my sympathIes. TR: <0> H0w dId they dIe? HS: I asked a question. HS: What's a Lusus. TR: <0> I was attemptIng t0 answer the fIrst 0ne. There Is n0 need t0 bec0me h0stIle. HS: Sorry, just curious. TR: <0> H0w d0 y0u n0t kn0w what a lusus Is? DId y0u gr0w up 0n y0ur 0wn? HS: I still don't know what this "Lusus" thing is. TR: <0> I am attemptIng t0 dIvIne c0ntext t0 explaIn. Wh0 guards y0u? Wh0 tends t0 y0ur well-beIng as y0u gr0w? HS: My Sister. HS: Wait... is that a Lusus? HS: A Guardian, a parent? TR: <0> Y0ur 'sIster' seems t0 fIt the r0le, then. Yes; GuardIan seems a fIttIng term t0 apply. HS: Okay. TR: <0> H0w strange. M0st 0f the humans I have met had heard 0f LusII. Perhaps y0ur pr0paganda netw0rk faIls t0 Inf0rm y0ur pe0ple? HS: Um... okay? HS: Whatever you said. HS: I think I'll just download the game. TR: <0> Well, perhaps the pr0paganda netw0rks d0 n0t c0-0perate fr0m 0ne sIde 0f the planet t0 an0ther. TR: <0> That seems expedIent. HS: No one is answering my questions, so let me be the reviewer when we get this game started. HS: Don't worry, I have two screens. HS: We can still talk. TR: <0> Very well. The revIewer beIng? TR: <0> Ap0l0gIes. My maIn fIeld 0f expertIse Is n0t In c0mputer techn0l0gy. HS: Same here. TR: <0> What Is the revIewer? HS: I'm still learning from my "Lusus" TR: <0> I see. TR: <0> ...0h, yes. Humans act as lusII t0 each 0ther. I had f0rg0tten. HS: Yea. HS: I'm just waiting for the game to finish up downloading now. TR: <0> Hmm. It says that thIs Is a s0cIal game. Perhaps we mIght play t0gether, If cIrcumstances all0w? HS: I would love to meet. HS: Yea sure, just download it. TR: <0> Hmm. Server-clIent c0nnectI0n? S0 I w0uld be the server player by c0nnectIng sec0nd. HS: Yea, that's what it looks like. TR: <0> Very well. I wIll be In p0ssessI0n 0f free tIme In a few h0urs. TR: <0> As It stands, I d0 have a guest that must be attended t0. She Is helpIng me In my experIments. HS: She is? TR: <0> It w0uld be Inexcusable t0 Ign0re her f0r a game. TR: <0> Yes. HS: Okay. HS: Fine. HS: She can join in. TR: <0> Y0u seem d0ubtful. TR: <0> I wIll ask her. HS: Just a little, I still don't know you or this other girl. HS: Okay. TR: <0> Well, we have n0t met. That Is wIse. HS: Well.. just download the game and I'll just wait for you guys to come into the server. HS: See yea TR. TR: <0> Fare-well f0r n0w, S0ngs.
It's a strange thing, really. As you ask the jadeblood about this game, she seems reluctant to speak on it. No matter. Hours later, you take your gloves off. You leave your guest anesthetized, as she would be in excruciating pain otherwise. Causing undue suffering is barbaric, after all. You'll finish up as soon as you're able. Hopefully, that's soon. You'd hate to lose another subject. You begin downloading the game. As per your agreement, you are set to connect to HS as server player. You will be second to enter the game, it seems. (Seizure warning)

Huh. Whatever it was, it's gone now. It might have been a violetblood, or claimed a violetblood victim. Whichever it was, it drew all over the side of your hive in... Is that blood? It wouldn't hurt to check...
BLUH! Yep. It's blood. Kind of tangy. And yeah, there's some skin, and clothing, and... And there's the body. There is a dead body on the lawnring that you didn't put there. They didn't bother to hide it, or even to start any form of disposal. Somebody is going to pay.
Whoever it was that killed them drew some stupid clown faces all over your wall. 'HoNk's and such. Some drivel about the 'AnGeLs Of DoUbLe-DeAtH' and the 'mIrThFuL mEsSiAhS'. You've heard something like that before from some clown-cultist, but it was vaguely comprehensible. This has just abandoned all pretense of logic.
Your lusus is getting quite agitated. You can't blame it. What was that!? That was a scream from inside. Your guest probably made it. Alright. Now you've got a test subject that isn't a guest. You can run the pain experiments on this new one. It would have been the action of a poor host to do so on a guest. But this clown has waived all such consideration.
Time to go clown-hunting...

You enter your hive to find it a mess. The jadeblood is covered in purple and quite frightened, but otherwise unharmed. Good. If he'd hurt your guest... Anyhow. You stalk quietly through your hive, just waiting for that clown to show himself. It's to your relief (and disappointment) that you find him gone. He left from a window on the upper floor. As you look out, you can see a purple figure running. It was wearing some stupid hood and an even dumber codpiece. Not to mention the fakey-fake wings.
Shaking your head, you make your way back down to your husktop. It would be best to inform your neighbor about this. The rustblood can likely handle himself, but who knows? This clown has already killed a troll of unknown skill without apparent effort. And a purple-blood, at that. You don't think too highly of the hemospectrum, but there are certain traits that make themselves evident. Purplebloods are nearly all violent to a fault, and those that survive become highly proficient as a matter of course.
You open trollian and begin trolling alchemicalSpawn. He should be warned. It's only neighborly.

It's somewhat unreal. Still, whatever the case, you can't help but think that this 'Gamzee' will be important later. The specific moment must be found to thwart his plans. Too late, and everything is dead. Too soon, and everything is worse off.
Oh, well. You're going to waste some time relaxing. Your test subject is ready, and you won't kill her. Not this one.

It's about two hours into the testing, and things are promising. You've almost isolated the gene sequence. And it's coming down to analysis... Oh, excrement. It's that human again.

Aaand it's back to isolating that gene sequence... YES. HELL YES. HELL THE ******** YES. You've got it. Now to add the viral strain to ensure propagation and the desired effects will (hopefully) fall smoothly into place.

Alright. You've done it. She should be a rainbow drinker when she wakes. From the legends, she may have to die for it to fully take effect, however. You suppose that extreme trauma of that sort might trigger a reaction. Whatever the case, however, that would be highly inadvisable. Also immoral.
Well, that spent a few hours. Now to take care of your plants. The meat should have grown well, so it might be feeding time, anyhow. You enter the other part of your hive, the greenhouse; you keep all manner of flora there, much of it genetically enhanced somehow. You take a moment to carve a few large hunks off of the regenerating flesh-mound in the chilled portion of the sustenance preparation chamber. Putting them in a wheelbarrow, you wheel them over to the carnivorous section.
In this place are those plants that are not suitable for edible harvest. You tend to trade samples with other trolls for supplies. They function well as guards, and they usually don't eat their new masters. None are foolish enough to attack you, though. You made certain that was clearly suicidal to them.
You just slap the hunks of meat on the floor, where they can reach. Thorny 'teeth' rip into the chunks as you watch for signs of degradation. No. No. No. No... That's new. Oooh. That one's developed an especially potent acid to bread its prey down. That will require a sample. You carefully approach, donning protective gloves before picking a phial out of your coat. A quick swipe along the plant's 'mouth', and you've got it.
New chemical agents are always nice to have. Anyhow, watering the plants isn't your job. You had a regenerating airborne irrigation system set up by one of your surviving guests, so they've plenty of water. You just need to check them over every once in a while to make certain that all is well.
Right, then. Everything seems in order here. That irritating clown didn't come in here, after all. You wheel the barrow back to the lab, eager to begin testing this new acid while you wait for your guest to wake. You really are hoping she survives this. You've failed too many. Ah! She is stirring. She might be waking up...

You've just come back from the garden when your guest begins to stir. You put down the acid in the phial-holder, and walk over to check on her. She appears quite alarmed. Not surprising. The anesthetic you used may have some memetic effects, but all are temporary. You will tell her that she collapsed and you brought her here, when she asks about it. For now, you listen.
"Could you let me up?" "Certainly." You unstrap her from the warm metal table she'd been fastened to. She cautiously moves over to your husktop, watching you warily. The jadeblood must think you fairly dangerous at first; a reasonable conclusion. You are not, of course. Not to her. You're just sort of studying the way she moves. Her limbs are quicker, her movements smoother, more graceful than before. It's taking effect already. Perhaps advanced symptoms will require time. Sareni logs onto her trollian account and resume a conversation with someone. It seems best to you to spread the word about this 'Gamzee fellow.
SM: ==T] Oh. Oh, ye^h... HS: What? SM: ==T] If you meet ^ purple SM: ==T] These ^re his words, he s^ys he's spre^ding ^ w^rning. HS: what kind? SM: ==T] ^void the HS: Ok- HS: What's that noise? HS: One moment. SM: ==T] He s^ys it's ^ purple troll SM: ==T] Pretty d^ngerous. HS: (temperially logs off) SM: ==T] ...Th^t doesn't seem good. HS: (logs back on) SM: ==T] ...Wh^t w^s up? HS: There's a weird clown guy down in my living room, roaming though my boxes of stuff like a shark. HS: I think it's the clown your talking about. SM: ==T] Oh, s**t. SM: ==T] Hold on ^ se<, he w^nts to t^lk to you. HS: So.. locked everything around my room down.
You gently take your husktop from her at this point: playing messenger will be inefficient. "Hey! That's my conversation... Okay. You can have it." Apparently, she understands the situation. Good. You knew she was intelligent.
SM: ==T] Do not eng^ge th^t troll. HS: Uh.. SM: ==T] Under no SM: ==T] Hello, Songs. HS: That's what Sareni said... HS: Hello? SM: ==T] I ^pologize for HS: It's weird, but fine. SM: ==T] You mentioned ^ lusus th^t sh^red ^ geneti< bond with you? SM: ==T] Where is she? HS: she left the house... but I saw something in the clouds on prospit moon. HS: Saw her lying on the ground, dead. SM: ==T] The SM: ==T] If I ^m wrong, then you h^ve my symp^thies. HS: sympathies? SM: ==T] In the event th^t I ^m wrong. HS: Well, I don't truthfully know.. yet. HS: Anyways, anything else about the clown? SM: ==T] I h^ve only ^ v^gue ide^ of this SM: ==T] He is 'w^rning' people ^bout his 'lord'. HS: could you give me the message? SM: ==T] He h^s enlisted the ^id of ^lHS: I'm pretty good with puzzled messages. SM: ==T] Their ^id is suspeHS: suspect? SM: ==T] This is the mess^ge. I ^m ^ttempting to w^rn you ^bout the seemingly-immort^l killer HS: Let me go through my books.. HS: (logs off for a second) HS: (logs back on) SM: ==T] I do re<^ll th^t the religion of the purplebloods vener^tes ^ form of sug^ry drink... HS: Well... I got one thing. SM: ==T] Oh? HS: It was written in a book by my sister or lusus. HS: She said in the book that this 'cohort' has been suspected by 3 guest. SM: ==T] I see. SM: ==T] Th^t me^ns little to me ^t present. SM: ==T] Does it hold ^ddition^l me^ning to you? HS: She said it could be any of the players from the game or even an unspeakable named person. HS: She said this name cannot be said or told. HS: She said that it's like a call for it. SM: ==T] I see. Th^t might be this 'g^mzee' fellow's 'Lord'. HS: It could. SM: ==T] For now, I do h^ve two suggestions. HS: She also says something else, but it isn't about the warning. SM: ==T] Yes/ SM: ==T] ? SM: ==T] <0>V<0> HS: She says something about a page of time? Darkness? A Queen? and some sort of fall. SM: ==T] Hmm. My guest ^ppe^rs to h^ve more inform^tion on th^t topi<. HS: Also she said, personally for me, that I will be gone to this 'quest bed' where an unexpected guest will be there. HS: Something that she saw before...
So it was someone you had spoken to earlier. That makes things significantly more efficient. Sareni begins to mention something about this 'quest bed', pointing out that she has some familiarity with such things. You hand the computing device back to her, face bland. If she knows better than you, then it is best to do so, anyhow. She takes it, tapping away to HS.
SM: ==T] Right! ^nd then you'll die for ^ little bit, if everything goes right! HS: I don't get that part really.. SM: ==T] Hey, don't look ^t me. I just s^w th^t in the HS: Oh. HS: Well, thanks for letting me know! HS: smile SM: ==T] ...I don't think R^ven's woken up yet. He's looking ^t me like I'm HS: Oh Crap... HS: I hear some knocking on my door.. SM: ==T] Oh. There's two more things he w^nts to s^y, HS: tell them to me fast. SM: ==T] Try pl^<^ting the SM: ==T] ^nd if th^t f^ils, ^bsHS: It might be him. HS: Okay. HS: Thanks. HS: I'll contact you later. SM: ==T] Good luHS: Same here.
You have no idea what she was going on about. But she gave the messages. Hopefully, that will help this human. It would be inconvinient if the clown began killing off players. Speaking of which...
Posted: Wed Jul 09, 2014 3:54 pm
Well, you may as well let her go. Your guest is well enough. The symptoms of her new state may prove a pleasant surprise when she arrives home. Her cavern system is quite dark, after all. You gather up the belongings which had been in her possession when you... Invited her in. Putting them in a pack, you hand them over.
She still seems put off, but it doesn't seem as bad, now. Good. You really would prefer to stay on amicable terms. Having her die is not on your agenda. It would be quite rude, come to that. It doesn't take her long to change; you move to another room to facilitate it. It's not as if you haven't seen her naked already, but it seems important to her somehow. You don't really mind. Neither flush nor pitch feelings kindle when you look at her. And you do not believe yourself ready for another pale entanglement. Not after what happened to Gretin...
It appears that your discomfort at the memory has displayed itself in some way. Sareni (of course that is her name) has put a hand on your shoulder. You are uncertain what to do in this situation, so you leave it there. She pats the shoulder in question, and leaves. Presumably she is heading to her own hive.
You watch the door as she leaves. Well, time to check on the game... To your mild pleasure, you find it almost loaded. Now who might you connect to...?

...What in the endless possibilities of Skaia just happened? You mutter to yourself as you check the life-support systems of your husktop. It isn't dead, but the extranet connection's been cut. This was unexpected, and will take time to repair.

As you climb out on the roof to fix your faulty dish, you note a gray, chitanous being approaching your hive. It is carrying... Yes, those are two pails, one in each hand. Technically, you haven't filled any pails yet. Still, that is an issue easily remedied.
You climb down, entering your lab and grabbing one of the phials you'd prepared for just such an occasion. Synthesizing a genetic slurry would be easy, though inefficient. No, you settle down to wait. As it must, the drone knocks on the door, bearing the filial pails. You accept them graciously, not bothering to invite it in. It wouldn't do so anyhow. That would go against cautionary protocols. No, you fill it with a slurry of blood, adding the special ingredient to both buckets. Two you fill with your own, drained and stored for just such occasion. The concoction thickens into the exact consistency and distinctive smell of a successful pailing. Taking great care not to spill any of it, you bring it forth to be inspected. ==> Hand over the Bucket peacefully.
That may be the single most idiotic stray thought you've ever had the misfortune to have pop into your thinkpan. Instead of handing them over quietly, you upend one of the buckets over the drone's head, splattering it all over with one of the most corrosive substances known to affect organic material. It reaches for you, but in vain. In a matter of seconds, it's an evaporating puddle etching your floor tiles.
You go out the back door, on guard for the other drone. They work in pairs for interaction with the populace. Certainly, if your hive weren't scheduled to be blown up in a matter of hours, their absence would be missed. You would be in a lot of trouble. Likely the kind you would not live through.
Luck is with you tonight, however. The drone's partner, while around the back, had been watching the other back entrance. That's a fake. You altered the construction after it had been built and plans submitted; sealing the obvious back door and installing a secret one instead. It seems this has just saved your life. You don't wait for the drone to pick up on your presence, simply drenching it with the caustic mixture. It didn't take entirely; the thing still has half a body. Oh, well.
Drawing your Katar from your Specibus, you slice its undamaged parts off and captchalogue them. One never can tell when a complex bit of bio-engineering like that might come in handy. Well, now that that's over with and you'll never have to worry about it again, you climb back up to the roof and check your dish. It's a simple fix, really. You just pick hydrogen and carbon in the correct sequence, and... a roll of electrical tape appears in your hand. Wrapping the frayed wiring, it seals up. Because that's just how tape works. You stole this from the home of a human; he wasn't using it anymore, anyhow. For some silly reason, they haven't acknowledged the superiority of bio-tech.
You've wasted enough time on this silliness. You get back in the house to check your pesterchum...
