>Xavier: Facepalm
Of course, how could be so foolish!? HOW!?

>Let's see...
"First in night, last in morn."
N...
"Second is found in a blade, but not a sword."
A? That's the only sensible letter.
"Third is Z minus J."
Q. Yeah.

>Xavier: Spell it out
NAQ?

>Dirk: Get some assistance.

You tell SNAKE EYES that you need his help to investigate the OBELISK. Specifically, you need to RIDE HIM as he circles around it from bottom to top while you READ it all with your MAGNIFYING GLASS.

>Ogres: Kill Future Dirk


Look at this little RUNT. He thinks he's all high and mighty, giving you the THUMBS-DOWN signal. What's that supposed to be, a WARNING? Yeah, you're not impressed. You're an OGRE, the meanest, roughest son of a ***** to ever serve the BLACK QUEEN, and--


and you're fairly certain that there is a KATANA in your skull. Your FRIEND asks if it hurts. Yes, you tell him, it is quite excruciating. Your friend tells you the KID on your head is making some kind of MOTION, like he's telling you two to BOW TO HIM. What do you do?

>GM: Take a break from writing essays, coding programs, and studying for tests, and make a freaking post. Yeah, sorry for the lack of posts this weekend. I hate school sometimes. Oh, and fuck VHDL. Worst programming language ever. May it burn in hell.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>Greg: Heading into the next room, you see what seems to be a pretty ordinary room. Four walls, a ceiling, an open doorway in the NORTH wall. There is a slight problem though: No floor.

There's just a wide open pit, with a platform extending from both doorways. It doesn't look like you'll be able to jump the gap, sadly.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>Greg: In order to get your image to reflect/fract, you'd have to get buildings between you and the OGRE. This, sadly, gives him some cover from your barrage, although you are likewise able to dodge his attacks.

You deal some more damage to the OGRE, and he continues to pursue you.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>Xavier:

Wow, I fucked that up. Bad. Sorry, sorry, that was all my fault. Although, you still got the first two letters right, nice job.

You successfully enter NAK into the weird carvings. This causes the door to open, leading you to the next room.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>Team Aldirk: The BREAKFAST COMPANION explodes, destroying the OGRE Future Dirk is standing on with its destructive blast.

Chas levels up! Level 31 Little Insectaphobe. + 10 Boonbucks.

The other OGRE decides to slam his head against the wall until he passes out.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>Dirk: Snake Eyes is happy to comply, but you find that the carvings are just too worn down to really study. You can make out a few words here and there, but not nearly enough to get anything coherent from it.

>Greg:Survey room

Well,this room doesn't look very promising.How the heck are you going to get to the next DOOR?You could try your SCHERZO STEP but you have a feeling that that may not work,what with no floor and all.But this place will not beat you!

Before you can really do anything however,you see that a MEMO has opened a bit ago.You open it up and see that it is from FutureDirk.

You give it a read and find a bit of a smile on your face.This gives you an idea.

You bust out your WORDSMITH'S BEST FRIEND and start to type up a MEMO of your own.

[01:03:18] CGK RIGHT NOW opened memo on board IMPORTANT INFORMATION.
[01:04:14] CGK: Well after the memos that both Chas and FutureDirk opened I figured it would be best for me to open one as well.
[01:05:55] CGK: I have learned alot in the time since we got into this strange game and I want everyone to keep up to date on their information.
[01:06:39] CGK: Now this is very important and all true,no matter what some of us may think coughchascough
[01:07:37] CGK: I will give what info I can and when I learn more I will try to add it to this memo.
[01:08:21] CGK: I will try to keep this is some kind of order so if you see something you already know,just skip it.
[01:08:41] CGK: Ok here I go.
[01:14:13] CGK: We are located in a place called the Medium.In the center of the Medium is the planet of Skaia,the Battlefield of Prospit and Derse, the Birthplace of the Ultimate Alchemy. It is a place of great power.
[01:16:00] CGK: On the Battlefield,the Kings of Prospit and Derse have fought for eons upon its surface,locked in an eternal stalemate,waiting for the Heroes to arrive,which are us apparently.
[01:16:25] CGK: With the many prototypings experienced by both Light and Darkness, the conflict has grown into one of epic proportions, one that spans across the Medium. Prophecy states quite simply that Prospit is destined to lose this fight, unless the Heroes can intervene in time.
[01:16:58] CGK: But there is a problem.
[01:17:06] CGK: Prospit is winning the war.
[01:17:37] CGK: Prospit shouldn't be winning the war,a fact which I have been told three times by different people.
[01:17:57] CGK: . Dersite forces have made several strong pushes, but it is impossible to deny that Prospit is winning the fight.
[01:18:41] CGK: I have had a chat with the White Queen and she told me this.
[01:19:54] CGK: However,an Agent of Derse,A Jack Noir,has requested a truce with Prospit to try and take the Black King and Queen down.
[01:21:09] CGK: This is important because,as some of you are probably aware,when you went to sleep,you have woken up somewhere else,a place of purple or place of yellow.
[01:22:40] CGK: There is nothing be afraid of.Your Dreamself is merely awakening,one of which we all seem to possess.Depending on which one you awake on,you will be either a Prince of Prospit or a Prince of Derse.
[01:23:30] CGK: I know that Chas,Rich and I are the Princes of Prospit so that would leave Dirk,Xavier,and Connor as the Princes of Derse.
[01:25:23] CGK: My fellow Princes,I implore you to seek out the White Queen as she needs our guidance.As for the Derse dreamers,I ask that you try to aquire as much information about Derse as you can and try to make contact with Jack Noir and tell him a Prince of Prospit is willing to hear him out.
[01:26:05] CGK: Enough of that for right now though.
[01:26:24] CGK: I am sure you all have gotten in contact with one of both of the trolls.
[01:27:10] CGK: The red one is Illire,the blue one is Letage.I ask that you pay them with the same respect as you would me or any of the others.
[01:28:12] CGK: They are currently..elsewhere..and need our help.
[01:28:49] CGK: I plan on helping them,but what you do is up to you.
[01:30:03] CGK: I think that is enough for now.If you have any questions,as always don't hesitate to contact me :).
[01:30:57] CGK: And remember guys,we were all friends before everything went to hell and back.Don't let pettiness destroy that.
[01:31:02] CGK ceased responding to memo.

You close the MEMO and remark on what you wrote.It wasn't everything you knew,but a bit at a time won't overburden your friends.

Now that thats down,you put your laptop away and look for something that will extend the platform.

Guys. It's up. Haven't looked yet. Watching it now.

If I don't make it back alive, know that I died doing what I loved. Reading ridiculously convoluted webcomics.

The best update yet. Even better than John turning Godtier, better than : Ascend, or John and Vriska meeting.

I mean..Godtier Jade. How can you not love that face. >.<

Yeah, I think we can all agree that that was the greatest Homestuck flash yet. Three Godteirs, an ascended PM, several rifts torn in space and time... yeah, it's pretty awesome.

Here's hoping act 6 doesn't take two more months to get off the ground.

>Rich: Be Rich, not Greg.

You are now Rich.

>Rich: Get stupid idea.

You're pretty good at that! Fighting the OGRE like this is going to take forever and result in a lot of collateral damage, so you think you'll try something mind-bogglingly dangerous instead.

>Rich: Attempt to land on OGRE's head.

>MetroidNut: Mourn WV.

That sound you hear? It's the sound of me shedding a single, manly tear.

>Dirk: Search for a clock slot

You're not really sure how far back you'd have to go for this OBELISK to be coherent, and you're not sure it would be that SAFE either. So you go ahead and see if it has a SLOT like the TEMPLE did to try and de-age it.

>Future Dirk: Kick Ogre

You do so viciously. Well, not VICIOUSLY. You don't necessarily want it to die. You're just a little angry that it didn't fight like a man, or surrender and be your bro like a better man.

You wave CHAS on as you try and find a DOOR to another room.

>Connor: Come over depression.

Sigh, how long have you been on the computer in your room? A hour? Two? Three? Why do you waste your life away on this, you start thinking of what you should be doing. You should be working on your quest, going on with the mission, finding Chas, or at least grinding til Xavier shows up.

Your not even sure how you feel about those two anymore. You don't see why you hate Xavier, it's not a racial thing, you live in a getho. Well, lived.

Sigh, and Chas, you guys used to be good friends, but ever since this damn game you've been only mad at each other.

And you start to think, do you even count as a bard if you can only play music in your dreams? Dreams you will never have again, outside of your imagination.

Then you remember that black face, that round unhuman head, with the latex thingie. All you can think about this man is a want for revenge. They killed Beth, and they killed a part of you. Yet instead of forwarding your goal you sit here and play video games.

>Connor: You've had it!

Yes, you are fucking tired of this. Your tired of wasting your life on video games and image board lurking, and having your self waste away while you could be advancing it.

>Connor: Get out of your chair.

You stand up in your room, and look out the window into the medium. It's still sunny, as always. You draw your Agency Bat from your PIP-vintory and walk up to the roof. You hear Shepard Pie making another explosive cake, and you ignore it, you have better things to do.

>Connor: Advance your self.

You head thought the first gate and further explore your land. You may be losing all your progress, but you are not ready to enter Chas's land, you must first become strong enough to be self reliant.
