Ready4DeathTBH: Oh ok. Well if you remember you can just send me a message again. Speak to you later.
Ready4DeathTBH: Thanks for talking to me.

((The next section is going to be confusing because we'll be playing both variations of cowboy, which is "Did not yell at him / Yelled at him but said sorry after the first time" and "Yelled at Cowboy TWICE with no sorries." By all technicality the yelling at Cowboy twice is "The Forum canon" version of You. There is no one canon on the main version of Fortuna though.
This is more of a "Just know that going forward that yelling at cowboy twice is our forum canon what option is picked for the yell at cowboy version will be our "forum canon" from now on, so please suggest carefully with that one.
Please make it very clear which version of the conversation you're suggesting for.
Note Cowboy is going to call You "Yu" for the sake of me being able to know where to replace the name with "Your name" later. You's name is not actually Yu.))

You: Hey Cowboy, I'm starting up my 3rd game right now.
CowBoy: Of Fortuna?
You: Yeah!
CowBoy: Look I really don't want to talk to you about Fortuna anymore. I'm regretting giving you that game, Yu. You're really fucking obsessed over fictional characters and have been pushing me around for YOUR mistake.
CowBoy: I like Fortuna too, but you know real people are more important than a freaking computer program right, Yu?

CowBoy: You can play the game however you want, but I feel bad, cause you're going to lose all your stuff way earlier than you're suppose to, dude.
CowBoy: You won't even be able to take your Fortuna items into the next universe because if you do the Sun god is coming with you.
CowBoy: But I won't bother you too much about it if you want to keep going.

You: I've been thinking about things recently, and I want to say sorry. After the last time we talked I've been thinking about what you said and mostly what I said.
You: I've been kind of treating you like trash I guess.
CowBoy: So you're dropping that whole nonsense about the AIs?
You: I mean, I do still believe on some level that they aren't just simple programs like you might think they are, but that doesn't mean I can yell at you about this.
You: I mean, if it turned out some of the NPC's I've killed in other games were something more than that, I don't think I would want anyone to yell at me about it.
CowBoy: Yeah.
CowBoy: It doesn't make me want to even listen. I mean I'm not sure how ok I am with this whole train of logic, I'm worried about you Yu.
CowBoy: You think some of the video game characters are like real people. That can't be good for you, dude. I don't want you to feel like you killed an actual person just because you had to pull the trigger on one of them.
You: I mean, I can understand that, but don't worry about me. I know what I'm doing.
You: Kind of.
You: Well not really, but I think I'll be ok, because I'm giving this my best shot, and that's really all I can offer right now, so as long as I know I'm trying my best I think I'll be ok.
You: If I fail I'm going to feel bad about it, cause I guess I could have prevented this if I had just listened to you and paid attention.
CowBoy: You didn't know any better. You didn't know what you were doing. No one will blame you for what you did, dude.
CowBoy: I mean, I wouldn't have given you the game if it was going to affect you this much. You really don't deserve to have all that weight on you.
You: Yeah. You know I was told something like that before by someone, and I'm sort of sticking with those words now. That's why I don't feel like I can blame you for this stuff. You couldn't have known either.
You: I'm starting to rethink things, but right now I'm pretty sold on the AIs being something bigger. I'm ok if you don't agree, but I do hope I can get better proof soon.
CowBoy: Yeah alright. I mean I still don't know what to make of this but I guess if you're saying you're totally ok dude that's fine.
CowBoy: But if I think you're going overboard on all of this I'm walking my ass over to your house.

You: Except it IS your fault.
CowBoy: What.
You: You started this run! You, hurt a lot of people by doing this, mainly Apollo, and you made me kill a whole universe!
You: They may not have all of their memories, but some of them have fragments of what you've done to them affecting them still right now. Have you seen what you've done to Greek and Roman Apollo?
CowBoy: Yes I have. That's the POINT YU!
CowBoy: Stop calling them people. Call them what they really are.
CowBoy: PIXELS on a SCREEN.
You: They talk to you!
CowBoy: Yu. Yu........Your patrons and shit are SUPPOSE to talk to you that's what they're PROGRAMED to do. They are PROGRAMED to do all of this Yu! If you removed their PROGRAMMING they wouldn't do shit cause they're PROGRAMS.
You: They're PEOPLE.
You: You're using all of that as an excuse to abuse PEOPLE!
CowBoy: AND YOU'RE USING YOUR OBSESSION TO ABUSE A REAL PERSON.
CowBoy: You are choosing them over me! I could physically walk over to your house within 30 minutes. Your advanced chat bots couldn't do that.
CowBoy: Cause that's all they are, dude!
CowBoy: Advance.
CowBoy: Chat.
CowBoy: Bots.
You: How can you not see what they really are?
CowBoy: The advanced chat bots?
CowBoy: No I see what they are just fine, Yu.
You: You're fucked up.
You: You're so scared of admitting that you're responsible for for hurting all these people so YOU don't have to feel guilty.
CowBoy: I'm not scared of anything Yu.
CowBoy: In fact, I think this is a great time to start a "kill as many Greeks and Romans as possible" run.
You: Don't.
CowBoy: And it's your fault all these AIs are going to die.
You: What.
You: You can't blame me for what you're doing!
CowBoy: That's some real fucking double standards dude!
CowBoy: Considering you're blaming me for shit I didn't do, such as FORGETTING TO DELETE SOMETHING I TOLD YOU TO DELETE!
You: Stop right now!
CowBoy: Yeah I'm going to stop.
CowBoy: Stop talking to you.
CowBoy: I'm still going to kill some people, I mean advanced chat bots, just for you.
You: I said STOP.

You: I'm ok with losing my stuff. I really want to give this a try. It's not a big deal if I lose everything cause I don't really have anything to lose in the first place. Plus it's kind of all about the trip. Even if I fail in the end.....I'll be ok with it. I tried my best to give this universe a fighting chance where anyone else would have abandoned it and that's the important part.
CowBoy: Speech! Speech! Speech!
You: Oh my god no. Don't put me on the spot like that, Cowboy!
CowBoy: Lol, we ain't even in a group chat you loser. You can speech it up all you want.
You: That's all I have to say though! Anyway yes, I would like some tips. Recently I got to see Greek Apollo. Well kind of. I got to see his entry, first it was kind of creepy looking, but then I found there was a hidden page inside of that hidden page and got to read an entry by him, about himself.
CowBoy: Nice! It's too bad you couldn't see him in a normal game. He's one of my favorite AIs, but he's one of the most popular AIs. Doesn't help that he's one of the two starting ships so of course everyone uses him right out of the tutorial.
CowBoy: I think Artemis is better to use and I like the way she acts more, buuuuut Apollo isn't too fucking far off.
You: Yeah, I'd like to talk to him at some point.
CowBoy: Yeah. I have to ask though dude. Are you ok? Cause I know you're really into this game and I don't want you to go overboard on this stuff.
You: I mean, I can understand that, but don't worry about me. I know what I'm doing.
You: Kind of.
You: Well not really, but I think I'll be ok, because I'm giving this my best shot, and that's really all I can offer right now, so as long as I know I'm trying my best I think I'll be ok.
You: I did kind of spend 4 hours taking pictures of birds cause I lost a bet with my patron though. I wanted to sleep but I had to do it.
CowBoy: Wow you're really into this roleplaying stuff dude. I mean I still don't know what to make of this but I guess if you're saying you're totally ok dude that's fine.

Also for later, it may be a good idea to talk to Helios and Kratos about your situation. After all, if you do consider them to be just as sentient as your human friends, wouldn't this be a good thing to get them to weigh in on? Maybe they can think of a way to help, or some sort of evidence that would seem...less crazy.

You: I'd be ok if you came over, but maybe not when I'm trying to save the universe and all.
CowBoy: Yeah, yeah, saving the universe. Don't have to make it so dramatic. Anyway maybe I can throw you a late birthday party.
You: A two person birthday party.
CowBoy: Ok, that sounds a little stupider than I thought. I really didn't think that out, damn. You know what, yeah, a two person birthday party. Maybe I'll just drive us to a movie or something. I was going to say we could watch movies at your place but you need to get out more.
You: But I took photos yesterday.
CowBoy: I'm not counting the bird photo taking, Yu! Those don't count. You only did those because of the game.
You: Considering everything it took for me to do it counted for me. Anyway, how about those tips? I have this plan I'm doing with the limbo gods so I need to find them.
CowBoy: Uh, are you trying to save the universe or kill it faster? What could you want with the limbo gods? Those fellas are only good for doing really sweet boss killings. Ain't nothing more. I mean you can pull some sweet glitches or lure them into destroying tons of shit by accident but I don't see anything past that and going through the main limbo quest line.
You: Well, I want to see if I can get them to join forces to destroy the sun god.
CowBoy: The people who want to rip each other apart so much they had to be chained down?
You: Yeah them! I broke the chains though when I went to the Helper though. She's helping me out right now. I guess.
CowBoy: Your funeral dude. I don't think they'll help much. People have tried but it either ends in nothing or ends in them killing the universe first, but it's all about how you get there like you said I guess.
CowBoy: I guess I'll give you a little tip. First off, forget about the Neo, don't bother with it. If it would help anyone we'd be able to kill the sun god easy I'm sure, but it ain't going to help no one. Second off, easiest limbo god to bump into is the Singer.
CowBoy: Every time I start a new universe one of my first goals to do within 2 games is to get to the Singer and either set it into a long "Shut the heck up" state, or just kill it. If you don't sooner or later he'll stick his nose into what you're doing at a bad time.
CowBoy: His appearance can be triggered by fucking everything! Characters don't talk enough or are mute? Summoned due to silence. Characters having fun playing music? Summoned due to sound. Character offhandedly "I wish?" Summoned due to wanting to pass on some blessings. Don't even bother looking for it. It'll annoy you and come in at the worst possible moment anyway.
CowBoy: Really, just think about the Limbo god's names and shit. Like you have the greedy Sleeper. How are you going to attract a dude who thirsts for money like a dog in a desert thirsts for water? By being rich as shit and either hoarding it, or suddenly giving it out to people. Asshole will teleport right over, disguise itself and ask for handouts or try to steal it from you.
CowBoy: I think the Limbo gods are supposed to balance the game for when you get too OP? I don't know, all I know is that summoning them and then killing them is fun. Word of warning dude, I personally wouldn't approach a violent Limbo god without a pastor or person whose job it is to be all anti holy and shit.
CowBoy: Normally all that job does is raise morale and sanity which isn't amazing when other jobs do it better and come without the lectures, but unless you get lucky you want a pastor to calm down or distract a Limbo god. It can be hard to know when you need a Limbo god. Fuckers will hide anywhere, as anything. Random rock falls and instant kills your captain? Could be the Neo itself.
You: W-What?
CowBoy: It happened to me and it can happen to you too. I'm not making this up. Limbo gods will ruin your run because "They can."
You: Geez. At least I know all about Limbo gods hiding in plain sight sometimes. It happened to be 3 times already.
CowBoy: They really don't bother the player until they want something. They're more about bothering the NPCs and causing all sorts of questlines to pop up. Just follow the trail of anomalies if you find one and you'll hit a limbo god sooner or later.
CowBoy: I think you met that O-5 guy before? Yeah if you see him again check if he's following clockworks or anomalies. He has a 100% chance of running into a boss as long as you keep following him. Could be a normal anomaly boss, could be a Limbo god. Heck, don't even need that guy, just look for any anomaly hunter.
You: What is an anomaly?
CowBoy: It's like, some blessed creature, object, or place. The Limbo gods bless something and it starts going against logic or "the rules of the universe". Something like that. They're weirdo things, you'll know them when you see them.
You: Oh, alright. I think I've already seen at least one before. I was on a planet where time wouldn't pass. Anyway thanks for the help Cowboy. By the way, are we still going to do co-op later?
CowBoy: If you want to, you might want to save your achievement points for something else. It costs, 500 or 1000 points for it in the game mode section. Might want to wait till you finish up with your sun god run to do it. Co-op is legal for a sun god run though.
You: I'll think about it! You're right, I might want to keep my points to help me with other things. Thanks for talking to me Cowboy.
CowBoy: No problem.
Now it was time to make your captain. First you would need a species.
((As before, you cannot suggest a species that has been on our crew before, or is a species created by Gimeurcookie. You may only suggest one species.
You can also take the hybrid. If you want the hybrid vote "hybrid" instead of any species. You cannot suggest a species if you vote for the hybrid. Hybrid stats and traits in the spoiler.))
