You deploy the odd device... into your friend's hive. Hm.
You put it in the middle of a circular formation of mannequins, because it looks like it fits there.

>>Examine cruxtruder

what a weird device. It look s rather ominous, surrounded by those mannequins. Damn, those things are creepier than you intially thought.

[so]

[uP]: hey Cålyps.....
[uP]:do the månnequins seem å little bit disconcerting to you....?...
[uP]: they still look lovely to me, but I suddenly wånt å second opinion......

> Sigh deppressedly

You do so, feeling your lip quiver like the crybaby you are. Do you always cause problems? Do your friends find you annoying? Maybe you shouldn't join them in this game....oh! That's right! The game! You should go get it so you can start playing with your friends who may or may not hate your guts! You like games!

> Dash overly enthusiastically outside

WHEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

> ==>

JEGUS CHRIST!

> ==>

Well, the fact that lightning just shot up practically right next to you could be a deal breaker, especially since it's snaking right towards you. You scream like a little girl and run back inside. You hate how lightning always tries to kill you.

> Find a weapon to defend yourself!

You look all over your hive, searching for some sort of a weapon. You are disappointed to find none (you blame your lusus' pacifism). You walk over to the dining room table and pull off one of it's table legs.

> ==>

Poor table...you'll have to get a new one somehow...

You decide fighting THE LIGHTNING wasn't your greatest idea, so you make a run for it to you PERSONALIZED MAILBOX. Once you reach the mailbox, you quickly make a run for it back to your hive. You almost make it, too.

>>Contemplate dilemma

Well, that sure throws a simian pull-aid into your hopes and dreams....It seems that the opening of this device will somehow instigate the game (according to this lovely yet limited manual here). Perhaps some lucky coincidence will occur

>>>

Wait...what's that descending from the clouds above?

>>Lucky coincidence: occur

A lovely, hefty package of uniforms has landed on the top of the cruxtruder, popping it's glorious top off.....and according to the manual, this thing inside is a 'kernelsprite'

Shit just got real.

[00:51:23]

You decide to leave Olyxna and Calyps alone for a while, at least until you feel you need to check up on them again.

Who are you, anyways?

> Enter name.

Your name is MEDDLE MCMEDDLEYFACE.

--- cleansingOperator [CO] began trolling Narrator ---

[CO]: Hey*Miss*or*Mister*Narrator?
[CO]: STOP*FOOLING*AROUND*AND*DO*YOUR*JOB*FOR*ONCE.

--- cleansingOperator [CO] ceased trolling Narrator ---

Well, SOMEONE has a temper!

> Try again.

Your name is CATENA PHOLUS. You actually ARE quite mysterious...or would be if you weren't so MEDDLESOME and IRRITABLE all the time.

You live in an EXTREMELY CLEAN ABANDONED OBSERVATORY with your ASTRONOMY BOOKS and SUPER BOSSY LUSUS. She's about as tall as your hand, but she bosses you around anyways. She's the only person you can't meddle with and it irritated you. You suppose you take after her, though, with the bossiness and stuff. You have a simple hive but you love it because it lets you see the stars. You are always in a better mood after stargazing.

You happen to know a LITTLE MORE than you should because of SECRETS THAT YOU DON'T FEEL LIKE REVEALING AT THE MOMENT. But you know a lot about the new game that you and your friends are playing, and you're NOT SURE IF YOU LIKE IT. You have all the faith in your friends, all of it. But you wish that they would GIVE UP THEIR OVEREXAGGERATED EMOTIONAL DRAMATICS when it comes to their quadrants. Like, really, it doesn't matter anymore, the world is going to end. Even if it wasn't, you're all 6 solar sweeps and have plenty of time for that. Sheesh.

In the meantime, while waiting for your copy of this game, you have been MEDDLING with your friends AS PER USUAL. You're not sure if this is a very productive use of your time. But not being in control of what happens to your world makes you nervous, though it manifests itself as EXTREME IRRITABILITY. Your trolltag is cleansingOperator and you*have*a*rather*twinkly*voice.

You are now waiting to see if you can meddle with someone, or if someone needs you.

[SO]


[uP]: But whåt if it hurts her...????!!!......
[uP]: She's not trouble......she's lovely...!....whåt if she gets hurt...?....
[uP]: Cålyps, this is a morål quåndry...!!!!.....


>>>

Excrement, It won't stop lecturing you on missing lessons! You need to focus on this game thing! But...hmm...perhaps...

>>Complete moral quandry

You step backwards. Lusus steps forwards. You step to the side; she steps to the side. Rinse repeat......Right into the kernalsprite...

>>Regret actions

You feel as though you have comitted murder. It is not a good feeling.

>>continue pestering Catena

[CO]: Committed * murder? * In * what * context?
[CO]: The * way * you * described * it * sounded * strange.

[CO]: As * long * as * it * was * for * the * greater * good * of * whatever * you're * doing, * I * don't * think * it's * anything * to * fret * over.

[CO]: ...Right?
[CO]: Ugh. * I'm * rambling * again, * sorry.
[CO]: Anyways, * don't * feel * too * bad. * Your * lusus * will * become * more * helpful * to * you * this * way * anyhow.
[CO]: And * as * to * your * second * question, * it's * pretty * impossible * to * react * to * change * WELL. * You * could * handle * it * better * but * not * by * much * I * suppose.
