☄☉☽~~❄*?

[After a few moments, there is another, correct text!]

sorry about that! i am still getting used to this device and it seems I got it stuck on the wrong character set, is what it is called, i believe? is that the correct way to say it? i am not sure at any rate, greetings to everyone i would prefer it had not come at the cost of my world being destroyed, though but perhaps it was for the best considering what was about to happen it is not like i can return anyway on a less depressing note i was unaware that oatmeal was supposed to taste this way! it is very interesting! i like it very much!!!

[ooc: Sola was actually saying something with the symbols - feel free to hover over them for a translation! If you can speak starfish, feel free to reply to it. :D]

as would i, but you see the thing is that i was killed shortly before my arrival here so unfortunately i cannot go anywhere else as much as i would love to still be home it is not possible to bring the dead back. i know this very well.

[Mayor...]

oh, is that so? thank you for telling me even so, it will be an experience!

Yeah, well, get ready to have that happen a fucking lot more now that you're here. This place hands out gory deaths like candy and people keep coming back after them whether they want to or not.

[A long, long pause.]

but that is horrible!! are there any authorities here?

[She's pretty sure that's the right word...]

Yep! And they're the assholes orchestrating the torture porn in the first place. Like I said, get used to it; we're still working on a way around it.

[Be thankful that this is over text, Rose. She's gone Game Face, like in the icon.]

i see. so i have left one such hell for another? that is truly unpleasant. such people...that is why they should not be permitted to rule, no matter what the consequences should be.

[Ekiamiel, you torture-obsessed, murderous ◊☠⚡--- (deliberately untranslated because there is no human equivalent)]

thank you for informing me of this. oh, we did not exchange names, did we? that is a thing humans do, is it not? i am sola.

I think that hell is giving it a little too much credit. This is just a shitty place with even shittier idiots running the show, but I'm pretty fucking sure they'll get pulled down. I know I'm not going to let them keep up the way they are now.

Most humans do, unless they don't actually want to pretend they're having a conversation. I'm Rose.

perhaps so but it is terrible to see others in pain. so, to me, it is like hell. ...i think. hell is a bad place where people suffer, is it not? it is nice to meet you rose though i wish it had been under better circumstances and if there is anything i can do to help bring them down, please let me know. i do not enjoy causing pain to others, but i have seen enough of these things and i am tired of them.

Yeah, fire and brimstone and all that other shit. I've got standards when it comes to people suffering, since I know a shitton of folks I wouldn't mind burning in eternal agony or whatever.

The more the merrier, even if you're a reluctant member of the merry band of Tower Fuckers. Right now I'm looking for a weak spot more than anything - no point in busting out the big guns until you know what to hit.

oh. i do not see fire and brimstone perhaps calling it hell goes too far then if it does not fit the description? good. i will be glad to help.

[A long pause as she sets up the filter. She's not that good with technology, admittedly, but this MUST be done.]

admittedly i am not at my best, having just been killed in an unpleasant fashion, but i can heal others of injuries, and take far more damage than the average human. i am not human at all, you see though i am able to appear like one.

Yeah? That's a refreshing change to aliens that actually look it, I'll admit.

How big an injury can you fix and how much further do you think you can take a beating? I'm not going to be throwing you to the lions or anything right away, it's just the kind of shit that's good to know for future planning.

alien? oh you mean something of another planet? perhaps i do fall under that category, if we are not of the same planet at any rate, it is better i stay like this because humans do not seem able to comprehend my real form.

[tl;dr: HORRORTERROR HORRORTERROR HORRORTERROR]

as for healing, so long as it is not an amputation or fatal, i can probably fix it for injuries, i was able to withstand someone trying to eat me (long story, he was drunk) and it took me a very, very long time to be killed at all would have taken longer if i had not gotten all the mortals in the city to safety does that help with your planning? do you require more information, rose?

[yeah, like 'do you have a bunch of friends who hang out outside reality and make creepy advances on creepy young boys' but that's. probably not something she'd take kindly to.

Rose simply files her under 'useful but kind of sketchy, don't fully trust' and moves on. she doesn't really have room to be picky here]

I honestly don't really care what you look like, whatever makes you most comfortable and keeps my eyeballs from burning out of their sockets.

But yeah, thats helps a bunch. I got a little sampling of some of the people in the tower already, seems we're kind of lacking on the durability side of things. Don't think there's really anything else to press you for right now besides any obvious weaknesses of your own we should be mindful of. No need to get you beaten up because we were dumbasses.

[Hang outside of reality, yes. The rest of it, she...doesn't know. She's not their keeper, after all. Besides, she's D----EAD, so she can't keep them from causing trouble.]

very well! besides, it does look like i cannot go to my real form here and perhaps that is for the best i do not like hurting people, as i said! any weaknesses? hmm i am unsure what you mean by weakness does the fact that i can be killed count as a weakness?

[YOU AND YOUR PEOPLE ARE WHY SHE DOESN'T LEAVE HER TOWER ON DERSE

B(]

Yeah, you mentioned. Don't think you'll have to worry about that much since I don't think the chucklefucks running this place really count as people anymore.

Nah, that shit's kind of a granted with most living things. I'm talking about crap like glowing rocks that cause you to convulse or a paralyzing fear of bright lights or whatever.

[She doesn't know about all the Homestuck shenanigans okay!!! She just wants to fix her planet's ecosystem ;_;]

oh okay that will be useful i will remember to tell everyone to look away if the time comes. i do not think so but oh there is something i forgot to mention i am able to control plants, but if someone uses fire on those plants then that will cause trouble because fire and plants do not mix!

[ignorance is not an excuse! get your tentacled buddies to help you grow flowers and leave her friend alooooone]

Thanks. I'm sure they'll appreciate the heads up.

Yeah, funny how that always seems to end pretty badly for the plants. There's a couple floors with wildlife on it but I don't know how friendly the flora on it is; pretty much everything in this damn tower seems designed to bite your head off.

[that won't work, they're all murderous assholes! if she could talk sense into them she would!!]

it never does but then in some cases it opens the way for new plants to grow. understood. i will simply have to learn this for myself, one way or the other thank you for telling me about them though it will be nice to be near them

[oh right because leaving murderous assholes where impressionable lonely young boys can talk with them is totes safe]

I guess, if you're into that kind of nature thing. Being a city kid kind've fucked up my appreciated for that sort of shit.

it is less that i am into it and more that i am it.

[Yeeeeep.]

So, are we talking 'I am every aspect of nature manifested in a single entity' or more 'I'm plant-based and feel really connected with the other chlorophyll organisms' here?

[THE DIFFERENCE IS KIND OF IMPORTANT FOR HER CREEP LEVELS]

[You know what, typing this is going to take way too long, so she flips to video. Hi Rose, have the least convincing horrorterror ever. She is also whispering to prevent being overheard because that is how you do that, right?]

It would take too long to type this. At any rate, no, nature is not a singularity. I - We - are not supposed to be like this at all, but thanks to an experiment one hundred years ago, I am. This is not how it is supposed to be though, earth spirits are not supposed to be like this!

[There's a look of open anguish on her face as she says this, but it goes away quickly.]

Also I suppose I am plant based, when I am not like this.

[Rose would love to return the favor, really she would, but you know. paranoid bitch and all.

this is obviously a being that's not been introduced to how video chats work though. it's kind of hard to keep from chuckling at her and her whispering.]

Oh, ok. Rogue scientists meddling with forces beyond their control makes so much more sense than anthropomorphic personification. Thanks for clearing that up for me, I probably would've have a hard time swallowing that otherwise.

[Dude she doesn't just fail at tech...]

Yes, it's a long story. Though there were mages involved as well, not just scientists. ...and there were, um, torturers, I believe you call it?

[...she also doesn't get sarcasm.]

[...Rose is starting to see why you people and John Lalonde get along so well.]

Yeah, that's the word. Sounds like you had a huge fucking diverse party come in to play progress on your spine. Or whatever the fuck they did.

[And the fun thing is, by horrorterror standards, Sola's an impressionable tiny in her own right! 8D]

Considering that it destroyed the city and the balance of nature, I wouldn't call it progress.
