Pain, Suffering, and Observing Creatures [Completed]

[cobalt raven]

MADE IT!

...it's going to be a pain trying to get wormithy out of this pile

Moon!!

Somehow that pearl might be the most confusing one yet...

please hekp with text again T-T

HALLO DOWN THERE

[topaz flume]

Do you know what a purposed organism is? Actually you are talking to one right now!

Although, a small fraction of one. Nowadays I am mostly just my puppet. The bulk of me is in these walls but I am disconnected from those parts, to a degree where I am only vaguely aware of how bad their condition is.

Most purposed organisms were considerably smaller than me, and most barely looked like organisms at all. More like tubes in metal boxes, where something went in one end and something else came out the other.

There were of course those that were purposed for spectacle rather than industry - they enjoyed the privilege of glass boxes.

When I came into this world there was very little primal fauna left. So it's highly likely that you are the descendant of a purposed organism yourself!```

[cobalt raven]

I CANT EVEN SEE WHATS UP HERE T_T

[lime axle]

One of my fav porls

[cobalt raven]

I wish I could go higher

onto the pile

[polar sail]

[cobalt raven]

....what's a genome

[lime axle]

A type of genetic code that basically tells you how to make something. In this case it's blueprints for basically making microorganisms(I'm pretty sure)

[cobalt raven]

ah okie!

[cobalt raven]

I had to read this...very slowly to understand...damn

slugslug

It might be referring to an ancestor of ours, but I also think it could be those sluglookin spirits

[granite sundial]

DNA code for any organism in general

Like your DNA tells your body how it's supposed to look and what shape it takes up ect

[granite sundial]

I'm preeety sure moon would tell you if you resembled it.... ?

[potent quarry]

slugcat. slug. cleaning pipes.

[granite sundial]

not a rodent, janitor!!!

[polar sail]

I don't think moon talks about slugcat's ancestors

[cobalt raven]

slugcat is after all a community name

omg

[edgy juniper]

porls

[cobalt raven]

I'm pretty sure I messed up text like that in one of my entries...why are you coming back to haunt me @alpine frigate?

I...despise....frogs..so much....dcfhbgvydche8x9mdenhfuyeg3wk0

they're even playing around with wormithy's dead body

they are..such a pain

Wormithy haters.

Getting wormithy out of shoreline is proving to be a harder challenge than when i got him in

Shoutout to this guy who grabbed the lizer and took them away from the shelter so I could get in

We did it!!

freedooom

mouses

Every
Single
Time
I just walk thought here this guy will fall from the ceiling, i dont know why but it's hilarious

I'll try get a clip next time

[stark goblet]

What have I mossed

[cobalt raven]

uhhh

Went to give moon some pearls

it mentioned a conversation between pebbles and seven suns

[stark goblet]

[cobalt raven]

and I found a pink porl as well

[stark goblet]

Pimk

[cobalt raven]

I am leaving it at the Wall for today. Tmr I plan to go get one of Pebble's pearls and then go grab a braincell to take to moon.

[stark goblet]

Theft

I'm surprised you're visiting Pebbles so much

Typically he isn't that...tolerant?

[cobalt raven]

Someone's gotta provide him with entertainment while he's stuck in there

[stark goblet]

Pft

[cobalt raven]

besides, I do feel some sympathy for him

[stark goblet]

Ah yes, the rat in my walls has returned

[cobalt raven]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-smacking-other-cat-cat-cat-smack-cat-swat-gif-10347810988835752163

Pebbles be like^

[stark goblet]

How many times have you revisited him in person?

[cobalt raven]

in person?

as in his person or his area?

Quite a few times, I don't exactly keep count

I'm sure if one would scan the thread though one would find record of me visiting and be able to count

[stark goblet]

As in his person

[cobalt raven]

yeah his person

[cobalt raven]

I've been thinking about Gerald's symbols

I'm still not sure if he wants me to be bringing Moon the braincells, he could be trying to tell me something completely different

If his symbols dom't change after a bring her some more braincells then I might start searching for an alternate meaning

I do have a question about the game achievements (steam). Hunter and Monk probably have their own specific achievements but I am wondering if there are DLC achievements. Like, do the thirty-something achievements inlude DLC specific ones? Or are they all Vanilla?

[stark goblet]

Idk actually

[cobalt raven]

[rain crown]

there are like... 23 achievements w/ vanilla only

34 with DLC enabled

did you install Downpour? 🤔

[idle beacon]

Theres some dlc ones in there, i think im allowed to tell you that. I wont tell you which ones they are for soiler reasons

[idle beacon]

They wouldn't have to to see the dlc achievements. For example I have wolfquest and I can see the dlc achievements that I havent bought

[rain crown]

wacky

[grave wraith]

I am now officially Caught Up™
I have to say Castrix I have thouroughly enjoyed reading through your adventures, and seeing your journal!
With respect to pearls and lore, I wish you good hunting!

[edgy juniper]

And they still haven't even started the Hunter's or the Monk's campaigns

[grave wraith]

Can't wait

[stark goblet]

Wonder if it'll be in this same threat or a new one-

*thread

[full ember]

I hope this same thread

[stark goblet]

Me too

[cobalt raven]

Not yet, was just curious :)

[cobalt raven]

I'm glad you enjoyed the chaos ;D

[cobalt raven]

I can't wait for banana scug

[granite sundial]

big banan

[cobalt raven]

Honestly I might make a new one, I like fresh starts

game is spoiling me with long cycles

Several worms be watching...and 3 white lizers be lurkin...time to wait for rain so they scatter off (thankfully am above clouds)

Update, 4 lizers, one more has shown up

6 worms!

rip it fall

the worms are leaving as the rain gets closer, facinatin

they retreat much earlier than the lizers

.....I wonder what the rain looks like while in the clouds

Guess I'm about to find out

tower in the distance!

the shakin has started

it does infact rain here, it doesn't seem that heavy (yet)

It's so nice when they don't attack you

[granite sundial]

What's the verdict, did you die

[cobalt raven]

nope!

went to harass Pebbles

One thing I find strange about his pearls is they be not shiny like the ones you find lying around

[granite sundial]

Ooh so the rain isn't deadly above a certain height perhaps

[granite sundial]

they are pebbles not pearls

[cobalt raven]

:000000

[granite sundial]

we need to call him 38 pebbles

[cobalt raven]

LMAOOOO

[granite sundial]

I have been wanting to make a meme about that for a while actually

[granite sundial]

(this was a joke post btw)

[cobalt raven]

Why you eepin, this is no time to eep

[granite sundial]

Gn peb

[cobalt raven]

it's not even rainin this time

oh i get it now

you have to peak in and out fast enough to get his attention and not get killed

Game devs: "Okay, just incase the players don't realise he is mean let's make his music extra menacing."

porls acquired

[granite sundial]

37 pebbles

[cobalt raven]

I've stolen much more than 1

[granite sundial]

-83 pebbles

[cobalt raven]

lol

I have 10 in this shelter and I've taken 2 to moon

I'll take this orange one to her

[granite sundial]

Imagine being the individual pearl that wins the lottery of going to moon instead of having to be stuck in the 3x3 box for 843 cycles straight

[cobalt raven]

LMAOOO

Maybe Pebbles will catch the idea and turn himself into a pearl and go see the world (from the comfort of my mouth)

[granite sundial]

1 pebble

[idle beacon]

'they're not edible' lie!! Get in my mouth

[cobalt raven]

xD

[granite sundial]

Exaxtly

[granite sundial]

I'm pretty sure this was the 12 000th message in this thread

Oh 12 100

[cobalt raven]

it was the 12101th

braincell time

braincell acquired

hmmm

If I'm fast enough I can spend cycle 800 with moon

I will never stop talking about how detailed these lizers are

Gerald does show symbol when I hold braincell....? Just a lot rarer now

maggot.

I found a shortercut to the shortcut I used last time to get to moon, so I am getting there a lot faster

This jellyfish I am holding is reaallly long

I was a bit too fast, oh well

yes!

hmmmm

that why pebbles eepy?

9 braincells! I remember when she used to have just 5

It seems she has most trouble deciphering the orange pearls from Pebbles, but this is the most info I've gotten from one

maybe if I bring more of the same she'll be able to put the pieces together

[polar sail]

2 pebble

[polar sail]

almost 800

[cobalt raven]

....is pebbles doing number drugs?

Back with wormithy :D

[stark goblet]

Yay

[cobalt raven]

mouses!

[stark goblet]

Erm ackshually it's mice ☝️

[cobalt raven]

Finally got a clip of the ceiling lizard

[stark goblet]

FROM DOWN TOWN-

https://tenor.com/view/macho-man-flying-elbow-drop-wrestling-wrestlers-gif-15700266

I petition we name him Newton
Because damn dude likes gravity

[cobalt raven]

OUCH

[stark goblet]

If that tube didn't taper off there he woulda straight flattened you

[cobalt raven]

If there weren't scavs there it would've most likely fell through that like it normally does

Imma try yoink some pearls from plantation

like the red one and the white one next to it

....I'll need to do some work to get past the scavs though...

[stark goblet]

You should try and confirm if a pearl is where I think it is
Or if it just appeared there for me by chance

It's in Sub though.

[cobalt raven]

Luckily I have skulls stored up, that's bound to mean something

[cobalt raven]

colourful pearl in sub? The black one you get from falling from the gate?

[stark goblet]

THAT ONE YES

[cobalt raven]

I has grabbed that one before, it's stored in shelter

[stark goblet]

YIPPIE

[rain crown]

oh nice, that one is tough to find

[stark goblet]

It seemed so random to have a porl there I didn't know if it was legit

[cobalt raven]

Tough? I faceplanted into it

[rain crown]

I didnt get it until after surv because I was a coward and hugged the right wall of the pit so-as not to die from the big scary pit

[rain crown]

perfect trajectory

[stark goblet]

It blends in with the terrain tho
If it didn't sparkle like the rest it would be impossible to find

And ppl often miss it because

[cobalt raven]

I was trying to get to the other side of the pit lol

[stark goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-squarepants-howard-new-fish-in-town-clap-jump-off-a-cliff-gif-25136613

[cobalt raven]

turns out there is no other side of said pit

[rain crown]

did you manage to get to the top bit?

[cobalt raven]

elaborate?

[rain crown]

top-left of pit

[cobalt raven]

Ik the top part has some paths to explore (which I'll do eventually)

[rain crown]

where I assume you were tryna go

[stark goblet]

What are the lore implications of big hole

[cobalt raven]

hole

who digs such a big hole anyways?

[rain crown]

what do you think?

[cobalt raven]

....uh

to bury your regrets

[rain crown]

(sub has a lot of lore that you can get by simply looking at the world, btw. interesting stuff)

[cobalt raven]

I wish I could take wormithy with me

[stark goblet]

We aren't going through that again

[cobalt raven]

yes.

I have learnt my lesson

[stark goblet]

I tend to stay away from sub, for some reason the stretch of rooms left of the lake makes my game super laggy

[cobalt raven]

Yayness! I has berri to celebrate :)

[stark goblet]

Cas has more time spent a first run than most casual players do in their entire time playing

[cobalt raven]

it's a good game!

[stark goblet]

Can confirm, it is a good game

But like

It took me maybe 3 hours to beat my survivor run

[cobalt raven]

.....

how

[silver yoke]

Bluefruit birthday cake when

[silver yoke]

Did you monk beforehand

[stark goblet]

I did indeed

Because I am a bitch

[silver yoke]

Gotcha

[stark goblet]

That run was maybe 6 hrs

Idk

[silver yoke]

6hrs is still mega impressive tho

[stark goblet]

Even more context tho

[cobalt raven]

make it go away

[stark goblet]

I did watch all of Skurry's Downpour vids prior.
It's how I got into the game

And fell in love

[silver yoke]

Ohhhh

That makes sense

[silver yoke]

he hungry

[cobalt raven]

it ate me

[silver yoke]

Yum

[stark goblet]

Delicious slugger

Succulent meal

[cobalt raven]

T-T

[cobalt raven]

this asshole just pushed me off of a cliff

new plan

Raise reputation with the ones in industrial and then go past the kelp when I can hold a spear

....I have a thought

a lot of the uhm

purposed organisms are partly robotic because there wasn't much organisms to start with

like the chompers, they look like they have mechanical parts

and garbage worms

damn...a skull raises your reputation by so little

oh me gosh, another pearl....I cant take it just yet...or maybe I should...I'm going to take it

bruh

It aimed for gerald and hit me

wow these guys are idiots

[lime axle]

Yes they are

[cobalt raven]

I feel a love-hate relationship with these guys

they are adorable in their own way, but damn they are so annoying

like younger siblings

rip that scavenger

[potent quarry]

that, is annoyingly precise.

[cobalt raven]

oh damn I just raised my reputation by a lot

spears also work as gifts

I remember seeing one grab one of these flowers, so Imma try this too

BOMB PURCHASED

[potent quarry]

next: "bomb sold" /j

[cobalt raven]

"On today's episode of The Explosives Dealer"

Where we don't deal only explosives, but ocassionally drugs

[potent quarry]

;)

[cobalt raven]

i uhm

made the mistake of throwing a bomb in the shelter

where the hell is my body

[potent quarry]

probably clipped in geometry

[cobalt raven]

They also accept the unpopped bubbl friut

rip

time to see if they accept the dead worm body (that they also killed)

They just keep bringing in more pearls! I wonder what would happen if i just kept takin them

rip my progress

bombs are NOT great weapons

bruh where are theses guys hiding

svdeygqk

bombs-

I need to start gathering those tbh

for a project

YES FINALLY

[cobalt raven]

pretty fella

[polar sail]

they're all awesome fellas

[cobalt raven]

hello frens

[midnight fable]

ugly

[cobalt raven]

LET GO OF ME

it killed meh

come closerr!

bruh not that close!

[polar sail]

[cobalt raven]

ACK

RUNRUNRUNRUN

[polar sail]

the scav hate isn't justified

[cobalt raven]

I died.

[stark goblet]

This is one wild Farm Arrays trip

[cobalt raven]

LOL

[full ember]

That pink pearl is so annoying

[stark goblet]

Cas makes this so entertaining tho

[cobalt raven]

Note to self, be on TOP of the strider

fbrgvdehyuswmzdnehbf

YES CMERE

annnd I fucked up

Don't just stand there, help me 😭

sigh

[sterile sand]

:D those creatures are what they are

[cobalt raven]

Half brains

Uberrr, any day now

I see you....don't turn around..

it turned around

[sterile sand]

turns around or throws you off

[cobalt raven]

EYYY

my stunt was a failure

[stark goblet]

[cobalt raven]

I wonder if I can get to that pole

[stark goblet]

Maybe with throw boosting but idk
You'd probably have more chance trying to sling yourself across with wormithy, but then the grass might snatch you

[cobalt raven]

the grass will snatch you like most of the time

[stark goblet]

The grope grass

[cobalt raven]

Ig rn the best option is to wait

and hope

bruh

come baaackkk

;-;

more waiting

[full ember]

Ok

I hate these rooms

[grave wraith]

Ubers are so fun when they work, then just awful when they don't

[cobalt raven]

xD

[full ember]

This applies to real life too

[cobalt raven]

frbedhyws

AYAYAYA

i fell.

[sterile sand]

there is reason why I have mod about these creatures so passing this area is more enjoyable :D

but in vanilla it is funky but fun tho

[sterile sand]

so back to waiting?

[cobalt raven]

yup

[sterile sand]

you need to go this route for porl? do I remember the idea correctly?

[cobalt raven]

yesh

bruh.

no voice to shout for uber

i saw that uber...it turned around

Okay I need a break

[grave wraith]

Yeah ubers tend to do that lol

Enjoy your break!

[polar sail]

do you need any help with getting that pearl?

[cobalt raven]

If I continue to struggle maybe, but for now I'm fine

[sudden remnant]

superstructure = big structure

she meant what you're climbing

[cobalt raven]

o h

[sudden remnant]

from the bottom of the leg all the way up to the stargazer room

[cobalt raven]

I kinda figured that Pebble's area is the superstructrue from a pearl

[sudden remnant]

I mean

[cobalt raven]

a what is stargazer room

[sudden remnant]

the room where stargazer plays

(and you see the city)

[marsh holly]

the ambient soundtrack that plays on top of the wall is named stargazer

[cobalt raven]

ohh okie

[grave wraith]

6 grains of gravel, mountains abound's spot

[cobalt raven]

pls stop now though

[marsh holly]

yeah

too much info

[cobalt raven]

it's been over half the cycle

[sudden remnant]

yeah that pearl is

[marsh holly]

such an awesome region isnt it

[sudden remnant]

fun

to get to

[sterile sand]

Did you remember to order Uber?

[cobalt raven]

no, it was supposed to read my mind to be here

[sudden remnant]

when the deer decide it's time for you to commence grass touching

😌

[cobalt raven]

Squid symbol!

[polar sail]

they're too dumb for that

[cobalt raven]

Although I already discovered the squid in this area

bruh, I saw one, panicked, and fell

[sterile sand]

I think in their head plays this line:
Head empty, no thoughts

[marsh holly]

looped 12 hours

[grave wraith]

You know that image pebs shows you to say you're smooth brained? Yeah that's how I see the ubers

[polar sail]

copyright free music plays in their head

[grave wraith]

Elevator music 24/7

[sterile sand]

you are now in hold, please remain in line and someone will come to assist you eventually

[cobalt raven]

I accidently dropped egg down there.....we'll see how that works out

yesyesyesyes, go get the yummy

[lime axle]

[cobalt raven]

;-;

[cobalt raven]

i bet it's going to do this thing again where it just stands there for the whole cycle

[marsh holly]

it just really wants the egg

[grave wraith]

Can I offer you an 🥚 in these trying times

[cobalt raven]

....

dropping it here to see if it works any better

nope

[marsh holly]

one must imagine a slugcat happy

[cobalt raven]

[grave wraith]

All this for lore

[cobalt raven]

YEGBSHJKWAM

[grave wraith]

Grass eatin' real good

[cobalt raven]

at the point there's nothing else

imma leave wormithy in shelter and try bring 2 eggs with me

[polar sail]

[cobalt raven]

I cant fit in my mouth

[polar sail]

[cobalt raven]

I only have two hands...?

....OMG I CAN FIT IT IN MY MOUTH

Let's see how this works out

I did mess up...but it works surprisingly well

hmmm....well this wont work

Okay so

funnt story

I made it to the pearl and back

but I accidently threw the pearl when I tried to throw an egg

BUT

I have my method down now!

[polar sail]

you can do it cas!

[cobalt raven]

this place is incedibly eerie when it starts raining

[stark goblet]

👻

[polar sail]

i also like how sky islands looks when it starts to rain. it's like it loses all its colour the contrast is pretty cool

[stark goblet]

Me when I start noticing everything lose all its colour (I'm on PC now and my controller doesn't give warning rumbles):

https://tenor.com/view/worried-scared-oh-no-stop-it-fearful-gif-12534009

[cobalt raven]

LOL

[stark goblet]

That happened to me like, yesterday
I come out of an area, and think "Why does this look different?"
I check the rain timer, and just...

https://tenor.com/view/white-eyes-steven-steven-universe-look-stare-gif-16698544

BAVWSTFGSYHMK

I fell 😭

[polar sail]

u were so close

[marsh holly]

if you did it once then you can do it a second time

[cobalt raven]

I hope the info on it is worth it

had to pause for this moment...I mean..atleast it was standing there when I got there

[polar sail]

idk
I haven't got that pearl reading yet

[marsh holly]

same

[topaz flume]

[cobalt raven]

...I feel like their horns differ slightly

bruh...I am throwing eggs in the opposite direction and he's ignoring them

[sterile sand]

He not hungry

[marsh holly]

[stark goblet]

Dang

[polar sail]

i keep delaying the recording of my pearl collection readings

[cobalt raven]

aww they bow down to let eachother pass....thats cute

[marsh holly]

ill get them all for <@&710572930102460486>

[polar sail]

haven't you done it yet?

[marsh holly]

no

[cobalt raven]

OMG I DID IT I AM OUT

[cobalt raven]

[polar sail]

SLOGGERS

[marsh holly]

[polar sail]

[stark goblet]

FREEDOM
FUCK YOU FARM ARRAYS

PURGATORY OF A REGION

[polar sail]

stop the FA hate

[cobalt raven]

I still need to get that white one, but im closer now

[sterile sand]

I am soon gonna try to get my porls all into recording
Right after I get expedition completed
So I feel your procrastination

[sterile sand]

Good job!

[polar sail]

the region is totally fine, although pretty unremarkable

[stark goblet]

Ok fine
I did spend over an hour last night dying in the same room in a different place so I'll put my hate there

[sterile sand]

Don't hate region, hate the room

[polar sail]

this isn't the only hard place to get a coloured pearl. and they're supposed to be challenging

[topaz flume]

wtf when did this emote get added

[marsh holly]

[polar sail]

[cobalt raven]

I DID IT

almost there...just one more

L

[polar sail]

L lizard fr

[cobalt raven]

the strider abandoned me and left me with no eggs

scug lowkey looks comfortable tho

[stark goblet]

Nah I'm gonna hate the region for being like 80% underwater.

[cobalt raven]

oo this one's horns are long

weeee

SUCESS

I shall leave this egg here for them as a thank you

I can now (FINALLY) go see moon again

I hope the scavs dont kill me if I hold porl

they dont :D

[polar sail]

because they're friends

[frosty arch]

[cobalt raven]

Waiting for stuff to move is so fun

NHBWGYIUJ

You have got to be kidding me.

[grave wraith]

[cobalt raven]

YES GET EM

I'm freee!!!

I remember when I first entered industrial...it was so big and unfamiliar...and somewhat scary. Now I traverse it with such ease...what a long what that I have come.

[edgy juniper]

[cobalt raven]

oop

[polar sail]

scavs casually murdering a predator

[cobalt raven]

and getting eaten

...let's take a moment to observe this scene...

a dead lizard on a wheel...and a shocked scav

LOL

bruh

THEY CAME TO HELP ME!!!

AM FREE :D

Thank you for your sacrifice, mr scav

[stark goblet]

Guh? What miss?

[cobalt raven]

I got the pearls!!!

am now takin them to moon

[polar sail]

yeah, at some point u realize how much u've progressed, and what i like about it is that the only thing u've got is knowledge. there aren't any slugcat's stats you can upgrade, it's only player's skills. this is very unusual in games now

[cobalt raven]

also the scavs just saved my ass

[cobalt raven]

true

[stark goblet]

Yea

[polar sail]

this is why making friends with them is useful

[stark goblet]

Yeah, but when they act like dicks beforehand makes it really hard to not kill them all

[grave wraith]

I've never really had scavs be dicks to me. Maybe I'm lucky

They're only mean when I'm mean to them first

[cobalt raven]

They have stormed into my shelter and attempted to steal my pearls :/
They also kill Gerald a lot

and my pet lizards

Also went on a murder spree with these guys, getting revenge for wormithy

I'd also like to mention how epically I'm haning off of this ledge

[polar sail]

very epic

[cobalt raven]

time to go say hi to moon

[topaz flume]

You cant possibly fathom how players can go places fast in RW
And then you do it and its amazing

[cobalt raven]

HIIIII

[grave wraith]

Hi Moon!

[cobalt raven]

"It's a song or a hymm, very repetitive"
PLEASE TELL ME THE SONG DONT DO THAT TO ME

okay

time for red one

[stark goblet]

DID WORMITHY DIE!?!?!!

[cobalt raven]

well, they did drown him several times. But he's fine now

[stark goblet]

Oh thank goodness

[cobalt raven]

Could someone give the text summary of the red/dark pink pearl from plantation? It talks about void fluid revolution and bitter tea.

[topaz flume]

Like most writing from this time it’s quite shrouded in analogies, but the subject is how to shed one of the five natural urges which tie a creature to life. Namely number four, gluttony.

It is basically an instruction on how to starve yourself on herbal tea and gravel, but disguised as a poem.

Now of course when Void Fluid was discovered these methods proved obsolete, as it was more easy just jumping in a vat of it to effortlessly leave this world behind.

There were some horror stories though... That if your ego was big enough, not even the Void Fluid could entirely cross you out, and a faint echo of your pompousness would grandiosely haunt the premises forever.

So even when the Void Fluid baths became cheaper, some would still starve and drink the bitter tea.```

[stark goblet]

I believe so

[topaz flume]

@onyx topaz Please ask questions in your own forum or in the spoiler chats. DO not go into someone else's forum and possibly spoil them jsut for a question please

[cobalt raven]

THE PILE GROWS

[stark goblet]

Oh my goodness

[onyx topaz]

I mean the question was related to their question

but okay

[topaz flume]

You were asking a DLC question

This is a vanilla thread

[onyx topaz]

fair

[topaz flume]

But still, rules still apply

[onyx topaz]

how long did this take?

[cobalt raven]

I discovered what makes moon mad

[topaz flume]

Do not go into other peoples forums, just make your own

For questions

[cobalt raven]

Grabbing her braincells makes her stop talking to you, even if you don't eat them

[stark goblet]

Noooooaaaaa

[cobalt raven]

which is annoying because I was just trying to grab a pearl

it's fine though, she will forgive me

[grave wraith]

I didn't know they floated low enough to grab without jumping

[stark goblet]

You've given her so many

[cobalt raven]

I am srry Moon, I'll be back soon with extra braincell

[cobalt raven]

yup-

Anyways I am donesies for today...the entire plantation pearl thing has me worn out. Thank y'all for your support today, it's much appreciated

[topaz flume]

[topaz flume]

Will reply since it got buried

[grave wraith]

[barren willow]

bro for some reason that dialogue hurts so bad T-T

[cobalt raven]

IKR

[frosty arch]

[cobalt raven]

Four Cabinets, Eleven Hatchets....sounds like a squid name. Maybe it's how most of the population was named back then.
..............I can understand starving yourself on herbal tea BUT GRAVEL?

And then there's void fluid again.
Void fluid can be used to "ascend."
........
"There were some horror stories though... That if your ego was big enough, not even the Void Fluid could entirely cross you out, and a faint echo of your pompousness would grandiosely haunt the premises forever."
So that's what the squids are.

........What's the difference between normal death and ascending with such obscure methods? Like, it's so weird...do they plan on returning some day or something?

Void fluid..?
Kinda makes me think back to when I met the ascension ending. The entry to the depths is literally a drill hole, and continuing brings you to a giant watery(?) pit. Going down further brings you to darkness, which I assume is void, which allowed me to ascend.

I wonder why the Void Fluid Revolution proved to be such a big find though.

[silver yoke]

Banger name

[cobalt raven]

big think

I think I discovered how to solve the frog problem

...I need to move them away from the area to somewhere else where they have access to a shelter

I once brought a frog into moon's area and it just stayed there

Wormithy

[idle beacon]

Wormithy :)

[cobalt raven]

I just traded a spear for a bomb...great trade imo

They came to meet me at the gate...I have a strange feeling that they are following me around now

OMG I NOTICED SMTH

MOON GRAFFITI AGAIN

or it might be someone completely different

but still

[midnight fable]

Hi !

[cobalt raven]

hallos!

[midnight fable]

Hows the rain worl

And the ugly scavengers

[cobalt raven]

[midnight fable]

I want to kill them all!

[cobalt raven]

[midnight fable]

Do you mind showing me?

[cobalt raven]

the dark pink one in plantation?

[midnight fable]

idk what plantation is

[idle beacon]

I'm pretty impressed you got it though! I don't think I've gathered the patience for that one yet

[cobalt raven]

farm area

[idle beacon]

This pearl

[potent quarry]

farm arrays (feel free to continue using plantation)

[polar sail]

[midnight fable]

ohh alr

[high rain]

would you call this ugly

[marsh holly]

he is so beautiful

just like gug

[cobalt raven]

...I wonder just how much of garbage wastes has water

I would like to go explore it for a while

Just debating how Wormithy-Safe it is

omg pretty

I say I've gotten to know industrial well

but I've completely forgotten how to get to garbage wastes from there

OKAY JEEZ IK WE ARE FRIENDS BUT STOP FOLLOWING ME

[polar sail]

ur a part of the tribe

[cobalt raven]

ooooo this is a nice shelter

excuse you...I didn't invite you to my sleepover

i think the worms scare them LOL

[midnight fable]

Yes

Hes ugly

[cobalt raven]

This one looks so done with me

LOL IT WANNA COME WITH

oops- it was too slow...anyways

they just love watching me sleep-

[marsh holly]

what a watcher

[cobalt raven]

WTF

WHERE THE HELL IS WORMITHY

[cobalt raven]

HE WAS RIGHT THERE!

wtf???

I need an explanation

was the shelter too small or something?

[pine brook]

They are like that sometimes

[cobalt raven]

bruh

That's mean

[midnight fable]

NOOOOOO

[cobalt raven]

It's fine, I'll load a backup, wormithy isn't allowed to die..though I'll have to travel again T-T

[pine brook]

Is it not here after restarting the cycle?

[cobalt raven]

I slept with him and poof he was just gone

restarting the cycle would mean the last save point, which he is not there for

[pine brook]

Should be still there

Worth checking

[cobalt raven]

fair enough

[stark goblet]

This is why we need OSHA compliant gates

And shelters!

[cobalt raven]

whats OSHA

[stark goblet]

Good question

[grave wraith]

Occupational Safety and Health Administration
They're the people that say where railings need to go and if work sites are safe, ect

[cobalt raven]

I'm going to leave wormithy in industrial for now

[cobalt raven]

ooh okay

he shall be safe here

Scavengers are wild man...tf you mean I just casually have all of this in my shelter? I only brought in the red spear

sleepover? idek

They come from the water 0.0

3 of em

4

well this place is...boring

[topaz flume]

[midnight fable]

[cobalt raven]

[cobalt raven]

[topaz flume]

[cobalt raven]

[topaz flume]

[cobalt raven]

more porl

...I don't like it here

frens

ATTACK

-_- move

weird graffiti

maggots.

I don't like the feeling that I've possibly explored most of the world by now

[topaz flume]

Mayb

[long copper]

maybe

[midnight fable]

mayb

[marsh holly]

maybe

[cobalt raven]

?

[grave wraith]

Either way I think you've gotten more out of the world then most people ever do

[stark goblet]

Well they aren't called scavengers for nothing

[cobalt raven]

......

I just had a thought

I need to really start saving these pearl entries in a document

Could someone maybe please grab the chimneys(?) pearl (I think it's yellow) that talks about some kind of self destruct evasion and illegal information

[topaz flume]

I think the risk of you acting on this is very slim, so I'll go ahead and explain it to you. It's an instruction on how to circumvent the self-destruction taboo.

The problem with breaking taboos is that the barriers are encoded into every cell of our organic parts. And there are other taboos strictly regulating our ability to rewrite our own genome.

So what you need is to somehow create a small sample of living organic matter which can procreate and act on the rest of your organic matter to re-write its genome. The re-write has to be very specific, overriding the specific taboo you want to circumvent but do nothing else.

The method described here is about scrambling the genome of standard plastic neural tissue with temperature fluctuations. After each scramble you browse the resulting cells for the genome you're after. This is of course extremely time consuming, unless you run a big number of parallel processes.

I definitely don't have any experience with this, but to me it would seem that too many parallel processes would be quite dangerous, as it would be exponentially more difficult to manage and control them all. The whole operation seems rather risky if you ask me.

It might be a good thing that this pearl never reached its destination.```

[cobalt raven]

thank you!

Okay so I have a theory

[dapper otter]

I just love the way this is documented, its like as if survivor had a blog
This is just incredible

[stark goblet]

A game theory?

[potent quarry]

:)

[cobalt raven]

The pearl containing this information was originally sent to or from Pebbles, or maybe he had the information to begin with.
I suspect that he used the hairballs to like....do what the pearl is saying. I can see the hairballs originally living in the Garbage Wastes and him taking them for his own experiments. Their property of fusing to Pebble's equipment (in unfortunate development) might have been an appealing property.

Now I really want to take that green pearl to moon to see what it says :/

[stark goblet]

Geen

That's actually a pearl I don't know yet so I'm all for it

[cobalt raven]

.........no I can't yet...I need to bring her a braincell

(she doesn't like me very much atm)

[stark goblet]

Swallow porl
Grab 2 braincells
And tumble back down to her?

:p

Ik that's a gross oversimplification of what you should do but-

[cobalt raven]

just one braincell, I'm collecting wormithy on the way

[stark goblet]

Ah

I think you can bring her 3 braincells max at a time

[cobalt raven]

slight problem...I already swallowed a pearl...damn this is going to be quite the mission

[stark goblet]

Can't grab all the preciouses!

Slugcat needs a fanny pack for all the goodies they find

[cobalt raven]

ooo!

[cobalt raven]

frrr

[stark goblet]

Yes. Because everyone wanted that

[cobalt raven]

is that sarcasm?

[stark goblet]

Indeeb

Hairballs suck :(

[potent quarry]

indeed.

[stark goblet]

The blue ones are the worst
The brown ones, idk about them. The last time I saw them was in a modded region, so I'm not sure if what I saw was vanilla behaviour-

But that's a topic for another channel

[cobalt raven]

they don't seem to behave all that differently from blue ones

[stark goblet]

Mm, in my last encounter tho, they seemed to be blind and deaf (Not that I mind, it made them easier to avoid). Has that been the case for you?

Ik the blues are just blind

[cobalt raven]

They seem to be able to hear me

[stark goblet]

Odd
Maybe mine were just changed by the mod, or bugged

I never deal with the brown hairballs, because I never go into garbage wastes, so I was just curious

[cobalt raven]

am leavin the porls by the garbage gates, the scavs cant seem to get here yet

I shall go get braincell and grab a sky pearl on the way

[cobalt raven]

does the chimney's danger theme have a full song?

[stark goblet]

Well they're all repeating beats yknow

But u guess?

*I

[topaz flume]

I dont think they were asking for the layered version

[dapper otter]

Oh

[topaz flume]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snd1c_ntzb8

[stark goblet]

I like Sky Islands' the best (out of the vanilla ones at least)

[topaz flume]

Ye its pretty good

Out of the vanilla ones Shoreline might be my fav

[stark goblet]

Shoreline's is also a good one but they made it a lot more unsettling in the DLC version if you know what I mean.
Which I guess is what you should be going for?

It's threat music, it's supposed to make you feel threatened

[cobalt raven]

yeah but sometimes it's just-

[potent quarry]

It's threat music, it's supposed to make you aware of the threat.

[topaz flume]

Me, unaware of the encroaching Threat as Im jamming out:

[long copper]

I just get stressed whenever ANY music starts playing, because i'm like "oh god what threat could possibly be nearby"

[long copper]

true

[stark goblet]

Real
Sometimes you just have to stop and be like "Damn...this is actually fire-"

[potent quarry]

the slugcat:

[cobalt raven]

a subterrain almost made me cry once it scared me so bad

[long copper]

huh

[cobalt raven]

a song there

sounds like a bunch of low voices

[long copper]

yeah ok fair
that would def be scary

[cobalt raven]

If my math is mathing correctly

Shaded is right under Pebble's thingy

which makes the darkness make a bit more sense'

also makes some sense why the area is fortified

[stark goblet]

Yea

[cobalt raven]

also, epic pause screen moment, caught the green lightning after particles

[stark goblet]

I wonder if you removed Pebbles
What Shaded would look like

CTRL + X's Pebbles

[topaz flume]

Holy shit
Bright Citadel

[cobalt raven]

well, killing Pebbles doesn't seem impossible (eating all his braincells would take forever)
BUT, we'd need to move his whole ass area with our noodle arms

[topaz flume]

[cobalt raven]

wormithy says hi to his distant cousin

[stark goblet]

Yeah just eat the trillions of trillions of braincells, and then push the cubic mile of metal building out of the way

[cobalt raven]

my dumbass just fell in the stupidest spot possible

[cobalt raven]

i mean...I could just push him aside with him in it

Also, it makes me a bit sad that some areas don't have threat themes..but I guess it makes sense for them not to have

Like shaded

hearing music before the ducks approached would make em less scary

[stark goblet]

Yeah, instead you just get increasingly loud metal clanking

Which is much worse

[cobalt raven]

but then again, their clapping is their own kind of horrific music yeah....(METAL MUSIC AHAHAHAHA)

...wouldn't it be funny though...if I ate all of his braincells..

ig that's a project for another time

[frosty arch]

mrow

[cobalt raven]

Maybe he doesn't need his braincells to live, Moon technically has nothing but her braincells

okay no more yappin, time to get to Pebbles without dyin

(lowkey grown to love this wormithy platforming area)

[stark goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-impossible-marvel-shocked-gif-15104180

[cobalt raven]

dammit I fell

[cobalt raven]

I'm blaming you sending a message (totally not my skill issue nuhuh)

[polar sail]

because it's fun

[cobalt raven]

It be a bit nerve wrecking the first couple times

[stark goblet]

Sabotage

[cobalt raven]

Y'all

I made it from the wall to five pebbles in one trip without sheltering and with just under half the cycle left, I'm super proud of myself

[sharp needle]

uh guys

can you help me with smt

my brain is not braining

[cobalt raven]

You don't need to. Jump down into the water to the right. Then travel up the pipe on the next screen

[sharp needle]

oh

dam thamks

[topaz flume]

Please ask questions in your own forum. Do not use other peoples forums

[sharp needle]

oki

[stark goblet]

Uh oh

[polar sail]

hello! and also, if it's your first playthrough i would recommend you to move to your own first playthrough thread (#1269808032276152451 if you have the dlc disabled and #1272670046434492426 if the dlc is enabled), where you could get better tips and not get spoiled

[topaz flume]

Sorry, exploding has been rescheduled, come back later

[cobalt raven]

:(

I think I made a small discovery about the hairballs

Their "body" has these blue "x"s

sometimes they dim, i dont think the hairball can sense you when its dimmed like that

[granite sundial]

Id love to see when you do

[cobalt raven]

bruh. I didn't know that guy was THIS determined to get me

[topaz flume]

lmao

Its so funny when they try chasing you down the tunnel and then
Pipe:

[cobalt raven]

Managed to sneak past them and get on top of the area, let's hope I reach the end faster than them

[cobalt raven]

so true

[cobalt raven]

update: I was faster than them :P

[stark goblet]

Nyoom

[cobalt raven]

I don't think I've ever seen one of these fellas in this area (the scorpion thing)

He didn't feel a thing

[marsh holly]

he looks so done with everything

[cobalt raven]

LOL

[polar sail]

he don't care no more

[gloomy moon]

He's gone

In the stomach acid of a lizard

May he rest in peace

At least you'll get the stuff he carries

[cobalt raven]

......oh nvm i was being an idiot

i still have pearl in my mouth...i dont know how i missed that...

What happened was I was trying to spit it out while I was carrying a braincell...but instead I ate the braincell...this made me think I didn't have anything in my mouth for some reason....so yeah

As much as I love these guys I wish they would leave me alone

[stark goblet]

They like you

[cobalt raven]

One thing I also hate is their undying love to kill worms....like I get you don't like Gerald....BUT STOP MISSING AND HITTING ME INSTEAD

[stark goblet]

THE PILE GROWS

[stark goblet]

My goodness

[cobalt raven]

I'm glad I didn't loose that pearl

[topaz flume]

Thanks for the image of the pearls lol this helps with color matching

[cobalt raven]

Could I also get the text for that one, please?
It's dark grey and it talks about groundwater supply, a conversation between Moon and Pebbles.

[cobalt raven]

there's a couple I keep in a separate shelter. Namely only Pebble's pearls that I stole and a single pearl that's my favourite (white) that talks about a photo of a pearl in a pearl in a pearl etc

[topaz flume]

Did you find the missing SI pearl btw?

[cobalt raven]

yes! I was carrying it in my mouth the whole time LOL

[topaz flume]

Ah lol

[cobalt raven]

that's the one I have shown moon

[topaz flume]

Oke hold on

"1654.116 - PRIVATE [FORCED]
