Waterworks

Check your relatively intelligent phone for signal. Venturing into an seemingly-unmanned industrial area does not seem like a safe and wise decision.

Smart phone? You don't have one of those, and you probably never will. You're not sure how you'd use it to find out who's in charge in this place to begin with. Maybe someone made an app or something. miss

Nevertheless, you pull out your relatively intelligent phone and wwwwwwwwait a minute no, she's still not listening




That wasn't how it went.

> Look out the hole through which you entered.

No. No no no. You've already done this. You don't want to do it again. You're not supposed to be here.

You're not supposed to be here. You're not supposed to be here. Try to put yourself somewhere else. YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE HERE! gotta admire that energy, though





You are a disgruntled denizen. You caught the opportunity to infiltrate the local steel mill after the door was left wide open. Like the workers are mindless or something? Jeez. she's just gonna jump over like that?





Recently, the mill has been making all sorts of weird noises and loud dins that keep you awake all night. You feel irritable at the best of times without the assistance. she just ain't paying us any attention

Not to mention that steel mills don't usually build structures on-site, and a skyscraper with ominous black clouds circling it is reason enough to call shenani...

...gans.

Hold up.




You're not even you anymore. Your goth phase ended a decade ago.

These aren't your memories, but you're still remembering them? You're somehow two people at once. What the hell is going on? How'd you manage to pull this off? helloooo




Maybe if you focus on wanting to get out of here, you can do it again? she's doing it again


Right, you just want to go back. To the way things used to be. Come on... maybe we should just leave




You are a peeved person. You've just rappelled down through the skylight of the Mespeth power generator in the hopes of finding some answers. no no, here, i'll get her attention

hey



...Nope. Getting colder. Roll again. miss

ma'am

HEY

HEY






...What?

All of this would have made more sense 5+ years ago D:

Big props to Seiga and That One Guy for making Steelworks and Powerworks, respectively. And another thank you to those who made fan art back in the day... Looking back all those years, it feels like a different era; one that has passed into legend.

And two more thanks - One for Andrew Hussie, with Problem Sleuth and Homestuck (of course)... But also to Professor Mayonaka. While Problem Sleuth and Homestuck were Andrew's work, the Professor laid the groundwork for what would become the Midnight Crew, and even took a crack at The Felt before their pasts were revealed by Andrew.

Unfortunately, a lot of the images are lost. I waited too long, and turned what could've been a cool nod to MSPAFA into one big you-had-to-be-there moment. Bleh.
