TONI!! While it sucks we didn't interact much in game I adored our post game threads and I adored reading the shit you got up to in deadland! I'm so glad that Spongebob has someone he can just endlessly harass for the rest of time that's not squidward!
goD SAME. i'm glad Eszmet had SOMEONE on the living side who was not so much willing to forgive it as be like "HELLO!!!!!!!!" bc that was a huge impact on things...WHICH IS P MUCH WHY IT IMMEDIATELY WAS LIKE :) 'i guess we are friends now??'
but yes, harass it, because apparently that is what friends do, it thinks?? could be worse
:) ofc spongebob befriended it he knew it was just scared and lonely like he was! that alone gives them stuff to bond over. Besides what kinda friend would he be if he left people out!!
besides, what are friends for besides frantically calling each other after he has a nightmare or after he saw a cute little stuffed animal he thinks eszmet might like
(i am so sorry that spongebob is joining your universe saving thing eszmet)
Okay so let's get this out of the way first Toni you're an incredible badass for making that video, I have thanked you for this a dozen times, I'm not going to stop, ANYWAY
I loved. The SQUIP and Orpheus's conversation about the nature and purpose of grief back in its trial, it's one of my favorite threads in the game (I've said that a lot so far but LOOK, GAME GOOD) and watching the SQUIP build off of that in deadland and start to realize what emotions are good for, even the bad ones, is so good. I'm hugely weak to narratives about AIs and manufactured beings coming into their own and you executed Eszmet's so well, I love it. I'm really hoping we can do some postgame stuff because I want them to talk about the power of connection and love and friendship so bad, as well as the power of stories and memory.
TONI!!!!!! you were out here doing THE MOST and i cherish and salute you for it!!! thank you so much for the unexpectedly wholesome CR of mumble and the SQUIP. it was so cute. it had no reason to be so cute. im so glad he died so i could've got this.
I can't believe that Eszmett becoming a Vocaloid was the true happy character arc for the SQUIP all along. It's been such a blast to thread with in the land of the living and Trial 2 was amazing thanks to how well you wrote its feelings on the motive and its reaction to everyone's emotions. You've been great to play with in both rounds and I will always love the weed possession thread
TONI
Stephen for R2!
