Two INPUTS enter the AGGREGATOR, one after the other. The chaos of the collective is beginning to come to light.

INPUT AGGREGATOR: now were cooking with a stove ;)

Crast Pactian: this is highly disheartening.
Crast Pactian: i am distinctly non-fond of the term ‘crunches a tootsie pop’, as it seems a very violent euphemism of some kind.
tiptopGipgop: It was hard enough when Zack was just unpredictable...

YUPPERS: the WORRISOME is not sourced from NOWHERE, zack
YUPPERS: ARMLESS CREATURES have obtained ARMS and therefore HANDS in the PAST
YUPPERS: in fact, CREATURES gaining ARMS is a VERY PROACTIVE PAST-TIME
YUPPERS: a RUNNING GAG, so to speak
YUPPERS: A UNIVERSAL ABILITY
tiptopGipgop: Yuppers, please stop.
tiptopGipgop: Zack, while you don’t have arms, the worrisome bit is the fact that you still have the ability to give us orders. Sure, the option is off now, but you can completely understand our hesitance to trust you given that fact.
Hunk Chudfest: dondttt trodderrrr meeeeeee
tiptopGipgop: You, as a collective, I mean.
tiptopGipgop: I feel we can trust at least a few of the Zacks rattling around in there, but definitely not whichever one felt the need to threaten Hunk.

> Return LOVEBUG to vault
> Retrieve EARPIECE
> Leave room

You get to work shoving its cute little face into the VAULT again. Bye-bye, Lovebug.


It also feels a good idea to YOINK the earpiece, so that you can tune into everything that's going on.


Finally, you shut your CUPBOARD.


As you're busy shutting your DRESSER, however, the EARPIECE starts CONVEYING lots of words to you. Its actual method of function is quite nebulous, but you can hear the text as if it's written, and speak as if typing.

You hear some bullshit about MULTIPLE ZACKS or something. Maybe something to elaborate on in the future, but you've got places to be!!


As you step out into the hall, you notice a familiar figure further down, by the NEED DISPENSER.


It's the CARAPACIAN by the username of Crast Pactian, nabbing some snacks and drinks from the needspenser. It seems he was going to combine it with the BLANKETS into a CRIPESALMIGHTY PSYCHE REPAIR CARE PACKAGE, but now you're out here, so that feels kinda pointless.

Of course, his real name isn't Crast, so it is, of course, it's... it is... it was...? ???
