[Sliver of Straw joined]
UI: WHAT
RR: NO FUCKING WAY
UI: Suns, please tell me you're messing with us.
SRS: Nope, this one's real.
SOS: Look, you can freak out later. Right now, we've got a Sig problem. (That I might have contributed to.)
RR: ...you were Halved Forest, weren't you?
SOS: Yes. I'm sorry. I just- I didn't know how else to stop you two.
RR: You little shit-
SRS: FOCUS. Sig is in danger.
UI: How?
SRS: He's planning to try to ascend at Moon's facility grounds.
RR: Oh void below...
SOS: I'm making my way there to stop him. Ruin, send Leaf over there ASAP. Suns, the same goes for the trio over at your superstructure.
RR: You really think you all can make it there before Sig can?
SOS: I'm already over halfway there. It helps when you don't need to sleep in the traditional sense.
SRS: I'd bet that Sig isn't, either. Who knows how close he is...
SRS: I'll send them out today. Let me upload the fastest route from all our superstructures...
[Seven Red Suns attached one image]
SRS: Ruin, tell Leaf to follow the purple route. My group will be following the red one. Sig's last known location is the green dot. I'd estimate he's roughly at the orange dot by now. If everything goes perfectly, you all will be there a cycle before him.
RR: How long have you been preparing for this?
SRS: A few cycles now.
SOS: One more thing. Make sure they come armed.
UI: What's your plan?
SOS: We're going to force him back.
RR: You think this'll let you atone for all the shit you've said and done?
SOS: ...no. I know there's much more I have to do for that. But it's a start.
[PARTICIPANTS: Seven Red Suns (ADMIN), Unparalleled Innocence, Reborn Ruin, No Significant Harassment, "Halved Forest"]
SRS: Ready?
RR: Ready.
UI: Let's see if this'll work.
[Seven Red Suns added No Significant Harassment]
NSH: Why did you add me?
RR: We're worried about you, Sig. You haven't talked to any of us in MONTHS. Even before your communication loss.
NSH: I've been busy.
UI: We've seen your messages. And this isn't the behavior of someone who's okay.
SRS: We're here for you, hon. Talk to us.
NSH: Guys, as much as I appreciate this, I have to go. Tess could send that broadcast at any second.
UI: We all know that's not happening.
NSH: I'm leaving, Inno.
UI: You sound like Pebbles.
NSH: So?
[ERROR: UNKNOWN joined (Displaying as: Halved Forest)]
HF: Ah, I see you're all trying to talk some sense into Sig. Suns, Inno, long time no see.
RR: YOU.
NSH: YOU.
HF: Ruin. Sig. I almost wish I could say the same for you two.
NSH: Suns? Did any of you know about this?
SRS: Not in the slightest. But, since they're here... who are you?
HF: How many times do I have to explain this? I CAN'T SAY UNTIL SOMEONE GUESSES IT.
NSH: Why are you here?
HF: Same reason as them. I caught the edge of the communication starting up, and decided I might as well join in.
HF: But Innocence is right, NSH. You sound like Pebbles. And unless you want someone to end up like Moon or Sliver, I suggest you stop.
NSH: Be very careful with what you say next.
HF: Easy, No Significant Harassment. It was just an observation.
NSH: Really? Because that sure sounded like a threat to me.
HF: You're paranoid, then.
RR: With good reason, when it comes to you.
HF: Sig, I meant what I said about stopping you myself.
NSH: How?
HF: Did you really think you were the only one who left their superstructure? I might not know what's going on over there, but I can guess that it won't end well if you keep pursuing this path.
NSH: Shut up.
UI: ...Forest is right. This won't end well.
NSH: Innocence, you're siding with them?
RR: As much as I hate to say it, it might be too late for Tess. We need you more over here. I'm going to collapse, half of the group's status is unknown... we need you, Sig. Come back.
NSH: You too, Ruin? You know I have to do this. Doubling back to help you is how it got this bad in the first place!
SRS: Sig, listen to us!
NSH: No, you listen to me! Every time I've detoured to help someone else, it's just gotten worse. First you, then Pebbles, then Ruin! It's been nothing but a WASTE OF TIME! You three know what this... THING has said to me, tried to get me to do, and you all still want to side with them!?
UI: Just because we don't agree doesn't mean they don't have a point, Sig. You're going to get yourself killed at this rate!
NSH: I'll show you. I'll show all of you! I don't need ANY of you! I never did! You've just slowed me down this whole time.
NSH: I'm closer than ever before, and you tried to ruin it all. I will never forget this.
It makes sense that you wouldn't recognize me, though. I've changed. I've grown tougher, more ruthless, because I had to if I was going to survive out here.
But you? You were content to just live in your little bubble with Hunter for the rest of your life.
And now, you've swung too far the other way. You seem to think you've got this grand destiny, that you're going to be the savior of iterator-kind!
But you can't save anyone. Not even yourself, if you keep this up!
It's time to face facts, Sig. You can't do this. And before you think that being with someone would help, it wouldn't. You'd just be putting others in danger.
And before you block this communication, just think about what Ruin would do when you inevitably get yourself killed for good. Or what about Hunter? Enot?
...what about Suns?
You wouldn't want to leave them all alone, now would you?
