[CONTINUE + 3] Week 1 || Act: mingle

[foundationmods]

Monday comes onto the snowy town once more, though it still looks as if it's 'night' as ever.

Then again, you are underground. That's just to be expected, considering no natural light can get down here in the first place. The Monsters around you are just as friendly as ever, despite this being your fourth 'time' trying this monday.

There doesn't seem to be many Monsters here...or at least, you think there was more before? Huh.

Well, whatever.

You still have a mission - And with three trials under your belt, you're now a little closer to figuring things out.

...How much longer will this repeat?

[A moment, as Drew repeats the conversation so Chuuta has the details.]

After Ren ACTed, the FIGHT glitched out. It called us "puppets", laughed at us, and asked if we knew what we were doing.

It... could be playing a game. Like, an actual video game and it's going back to the last save when it gets a bad end at the trial.

[justonezero]

So maybe the narration is like your status window?

Like when we use "CHECK" on Monsters.

[homeecspacecop]

I don't think it has to check.

It could be watching us right now but it's watching a cutscene, and it's just waiting for its chance to take control of a character.

[justonezero]

I wonder if it has a character select screen.

[homeecspacecop]

Probably.

[justonezero]

A character select screen probably wouldn't lock out characters after one use either, would it...? Unless characters are locked based on plot.

[homeecspacecop]

Why did anyone think they could only possess us once?

[justonezero]

Probably because we really don't want to get possessed over and over?

[homeecspacecop]

We really didn't want them to be able to possess more than one person at once, but they did that last week.

[justonezero]

Adding another controller isn't fair!

[oceanicbutterfly]

...did you know what you were doing?

[homeecspacecop]

Do any of us ever know what we're doing?

[oceanicbutterfly]

...fair enough.

[sageking]

It's doubtless it does appear to view it's involvement in all of this as a game, even if that's not exactly the case.
