[Fortuna]: Luck depends on no one....right? (4/3)

Slate: Give the doggy a bath. Recover 1 sanity.

I am surprised that Slate was affected by Sir like that, given that he's unaffected by the dark. Maybe he'll quickly recover?

>Slate [Intelligence check]: Signal the Hound to wait, keep signalling as you back away from the moving statue. Make it seem like a game until the statue reaches the Hound and kills it by surprise.

I've just noticed that the losing of the connection with our patrons coincided perfectly with when we were asking them detailed questions about the Fortuna universe...

Not really. We were asking a lot of detailed questions before we cut off.

Awww man I almost missed this but geez I haven't even thought of making any of the AIs more buglike like this. This is mega freaking cool, she looks like she'd be a great patron for Thyella's people.

Awesome. I can't wait to see any buglike designs you can come up with.

> Slate: Look up.

Why isn't Sonny golden? What was up with the red text? What's going on?!

WHAT THE FUCK

>Point in the direction of the Sir, you did come in here to deal with it after all.

What. What?

>Slate: Type on tablet "sounds good cutie"
>Slate: Also shrug

>Slate: Type on tablet "sounds good cutie"

SlateXSonny? I approve. _{Maybe I should draw that ship.}

https://i.imgur.com/q0akDBi.gif Who called Sonny and Sir being related? The only question is how are they related.

So it turns out I don't have a clue how to draw a ship. Here's something.

Totally shipping Slate and Sonny.

>Slate: Use the dog residue on your hand to write on the blank poster "Are you The Unknown?"

We're all thinking it anyway

> Slate: Stand your ground.

Also, notice that in the last panel, Sonny calls Slate innocent.

Cosmosdex entry: Dreamwalkers

SpoilerShow

Name: Dreamwalkers

Physical description:
Dreamwalkers have no physical existence, instead only existing inside people's minds. While within one's mind they can comunicate with their host as well as appear in their host's dreams taking whatever form they desire. If they have a strong enough bond with the host and/or their host has an unstable mind, they can appear to the host as if they are in physical reality, but this is only an illusion and they cannot actually interact with the environment or be seen by anyone other than the host. Dreamwalkers can also gain some control the host's body, but only if a strong enough bond is formed with the host and the host specifically allows them to do so.

They are able to ride brainwaves to jump from one host to another, but only if the two people are in close physical proximity (their range is about the size of a 5-10 person ship). If the host has a strong enough mind it is possible to force a dreamwalker out of said mind. When evicted due to being forced out or due to the death of the host the dreamwalker will attempt to hop in to the head of another. If they cannot find a mind to enter in time they will quickly die.


Behavior:
Dreamwalkers are a very intelligent race and different dreamwalkers can have very different personalities. Since they rely on their host's cooperation in order to interact with the world, they are forced to either be polite and cooperative with their host so the host is willing to do what they want, or manipulate and trick the host so the host does what they want without realizing it. The latter method is more risky, however, so the majority take the honest route. Some like to play the role of an imaginary friend, while others are more up-front about their true nature. Most of them will tend to stick with a host they like, building up a close bond with them. There is a rare type of dreamwalker known as the aimless dreamwalker who change hosts whenever they wish unlike most dreamwalkers who are trapped in their hosts until eviction or death.


Danger level: Minor to moderate. Most are harmless and they are limited to doing things through their hosts anyway, but more malicious dreamwalkers may try to trick people or stealthily commit psychological abuse or brainwashing.

Habitat: Inside the minds of intelligent species.

> Point in the direction of the Sir, you did come in here to deal with it after all.

Welp, apparently, THAT'S Sonny. Might as well do as he says for now and leave. There doesn't seem to be much of anything that can help illuminate the issue with Cea at the moment.

Co-player? Co-player! CO-PLAYER!!!!!!!





You've been yelling co-player for 10 minutes, I think it's time for you to stop.

_____________

We're going to be Cleo next update so feel free to suggest what Cleo should do and any last suggestions for Edel/Cea/Slate/ect.

So it turns out I don't have a clue how to draw a ship. Here's something.

-Snip for space-

Totally shipping Slate and Sonny.

And the strangest ship award goes to......

SpoilerShow

Sonny is a dreamwalker, and Sonny... Or something.. it was speaking to me.

>Cea: "I'm so sorry"
>Cea: Hand Slate the poster

>Cleo: Ask if Cea wants to make a get well card for Slate together

> Do either of you have any idea what just happened? We were cut off from communicating with you when Slate started doing the mind thing. Also do either of you know what a dreamwalker is and what Sonny's other half might be?

EDIT: So who else think Sonny might be the Sun God's other half?

I'm guessing Sonny is an underman.

SpoilerShow

We're back. We haven't been able to hear you after Athena told us how the Limbo gods don't need honor.

Would you happen to know what Sonny is, Helios? He says he is sort of a dreamwalker, and that he used to be a king.

>Edel: Keep Marble around so Slate doesn't accidently harm anybody with his psychics.

>Cleo should check up on the Helios unit and maybe start on her AI kit?

Slate: that statue has to be jettisoned into space asap. If you can't write your command, it might be important to say it aloud just this once.

I don't think getting rid of the statue will do anything.

I don't think getting rid of the statue will do anything.

If we're unlucky, the snake statue will start animating itself just like it did in the other place.

I completely forgot to post the cosmosdex entry so now I just threw it under the part where Sonny says "I am a dreamwalker".

[Slate and I are back. I'm OK, not so sure about Slate. We talked with Sonny, who claimed to be a dreamwalker that's hosted by Cea. He was attempting to draw in Sir somewhere to keep him from Cea but had drawn us in also. While he was sending Slate (and I) back, Slate was attacked by a "friend" of Sonny and has had a severe hit to his sanity.]


I wonder if the "older" and "smaller" universe Sonny is the presumed old game that our chatfriend assumed Fortuna was built on?
