Yeah, I'm weirdly good at writing, right?

[ the charitable description here is that the trailblazer has a creative mind. the less charitable description is that he's somehow very good at bullshitting his way through life... ]

You can pick options I don't list too, if you think of something I didn't put down. I'm just offering prompts as suggestions. In a real video game, you have to stick to the choices you're given, though.

But alright. You check the fields. They're nice fields, and it's daytime right now. There are some horses swishing their tails off to the distance, and cows grazing in the pasture. No predators on the horizon, either.

But... there are some slimes teasing one of the sheep! What do you do?

Open-ended prompt here. You can ask questions or do whatever you want.

[hey, bullshitting through life is a very valid talent all its own too!]

Good at writing for sure! It's a wonderful skill to have, weird or not. I can see how you managed to fix up the Dreamjoy Memoir's script so well now!

[there's something very script-like about the setup of this game in general, really, that's already pleasantly tickling the watchmaker's subconscious film-stitching sensibilities such that misha's getting a good kick out of it too. unheard, although perhaps transcribed, is an enthused and very thoughtful hum as he turns over this new setup in his head...]

Wow, horses, I've always wanted to ride a horse... [ah, mikhail did probably ride some alien memoria equivalents once or twice in penacony's "frontier cowboy" era, but...ah whoops--] Oh--sorry, I mean! Not right now though, looks like there's a situation in this field. Slimes teasing a sheep? That's probably not good? Is it getting scared and running around?

Um, would the slimes notice me if I walk up and try to get their attention...? I'll--maybe, I'd say! "Excuse me, leave that sheep alone!"

You ask the slimes very politely to stop harassing the farmers' sheep. But the slimes do not respond. You lack the ability to communicate with slimes.

At the very least, they don't seem hungry. That's a good sign. Just... curious, perhaps? They keep reaching out to touch the sheep with their gelatinous... frames.

Try something else!
