OMG TS. Too funny! Thank you for that crazy awesome surprise. Its actually just what I needed after a terrible RL day. Instead of tears of frustration I had tears of laughter.
You know just how to make a Glitch smile. I LOBE YOU!
The Scion just spams several set phrases, among which are warnings that [something random] is evil and the source of all your problems and that [location] is your destiny. I twigged to that when the Scion admonished me about several different items being the source of all my problems and told me several locations were "my destiny." It's all in good fun.
Much like in real life, any life-changing revelations one has while under the influence of anything should be taken with a grain of salt and examined with skepticism once one sobers up. :)
Everything is dead, and the dead are everywhere.
Men are alone, and all around them is silence—that is the earth!

Every love story is a ghost story.

and opens;only something in me understands
the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses)

Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy...
the Scion of Purple is Holy....
the poetry pickers are Holy...
I'm with you in Rockland, friends,
and I
don't want off the train.

(that bit up there is my reaction to a rather prescient bit of tripping in the void, not what the Scion actually said)
The e.e. cummings snippet was brilliant -- my daughter and I were like, "Wait, that sounds familiar!"
I got this, from Dostoevsky:
"Of course I have myself made up all the things you say. That, too, is from underground. I have been for forty years listening to you through a crack under the floor. I have invented them myself, there was nothing else I could invent."
After doing this the very first time, I immediately developed a crush!!!!!
I don't know if it was for the moment and what it meant to me or the developers or even how it seemed somewhat familiar!!??!
But I spend my time stocking up and "Journeying Purple"....
One of the better things to look forward to......Is there a group for this.....if there is Send me an invite!!!!
Purple journey is AWESOME. I had my first one today. Indeed, the Scion needs an icon.
"And the worms, they will
climb
the crooked ladder of your spine-
we're all mad here."
HURRY UP PLEASE ITS TIME
I think I'm addicted to essence of purple...oh well...better than No-No!!
