A warning

[fearinahandfulof]

There's something wrong with the room with the door that isn't quite there. I get a very strong sense of foreboding from it, like it's a bad omen. It doesn't belong.

The Mood Ring game from the last Liminal was the same way.

Has anyone looked it over to be sure it doesn't contain any... sigils?

[fearinahandfulof]

I haven't been inside it.

Sigils... Harrogate?

[protect_and_serve]

The last time I remember anyone or anything except the Arcana breaching this space...

If it was just a room, it could be Starmovers, but I don't think they understand well enough to create something so detailed. Questing Country would be more direct.

[fearinahandfulof]

The Illuminants broke in once. I don't know if anyone else has, though.

[protect_and_serve]

... They did.

This room. Every time I've seen it, every surface has been a single color...

[willyousee]

There are rotating numbers which change the color and furniture upon the surface when altered, but I've found nothing eldritch, if that is what you mean.

[thornsofmalkav]

Yeah, they're specifically using those hex codes I told you about.

[willyousee]

Mmhmm! I admit, I was simply pleased to find a place that was cut off from the network. At least there one could find peace without the music.

[protect_and_serve]

Maybe it is cut off from the Network because it is truly apart from it.

Which does not bode well, if anyone is within when Liminal Space changes again. We should evacuate it.

[thornsofmalkav]

Oh that's true. You wouldn't have had all the practice I've had with tuning shit out on the 'Madness Network.'

[leftbehindagain]

I haven't looked closely at either of them. Didn't, I suppose, in the case of the game. What did it do, and do you know anything about what the room does?

[fearinahandfulof]

I don't know what the game did. I can't tell anything at all about the room with Liminal or psychic skills.

[leftbehindagain]

Huh. That's unusual. Still, the foreboding feeling suggests they might be connected. If anyone does know what that covered game was meant to do, let us know?

[fearinahandfulof]

They both feel, or felt, very similar.

[leftbehindagain]

Then they might be connected to the same thing, whatever it is.

[thornsofmalkav]

Alcuin's been napping in there. It's-- kind of disconcerting. You can't use liminal skills or the network in there--and you can't target the inside with any skills either.

You can turn it colors. Like, using hexidecimal values? I managed to get it a pretty nice shade of pink at one point.

[lightnovelexperiences]

Hex code?

...you guys haven't been anywhere within a computer system, have you? Like a simulated world?

[thornsofmalkav]

Twice, actually, but I was only there for the second time. But like, colors meant very specific things with the Programs and there weren't this many options for faction colors.

[capital_asset]

Colors... like color magic?

[thornsofmalkav]

................ oh motherfuck.

[lightnovelexperiences]

Somehow I doubt you're talking WUBRG.

[Pronounced "Wooburg," and with some rising concern.]

[leftbehindagain]

Man, that would be disconcerting, after so long.

[thornsofmalkav]

Yeah! Like, it might not even be a fucking part of liminal space if that stuff can't work there. But if it's not liminal space... that where is it? Who is it? Don't forget. Places can be people here.

[leftbehindagain]

[...wait a minute.]

Turn it colors?

[thornsofmalkav]

I hate that perfectly normal things like colors are now worrying. Thanks a lot, you Skittle assholes!!!
