You are alive.
Although you do not have a name yet, you have achieved rudimentary sentience and uttered you first thought, which you only now realise is a thought.
You find it odd that you can now think about thinking and that that is exactly what you are doing now.
This introspection doesn't seem to be going anywhere though, maybe you should try something else?
>Introspect
>Observe
>Act (roll 1d2)
>Other (type your own action)
>>
>>1809327
>Introspect
>>
>>1809343
You decide to continue introspecting.
You attempt to remember what you were before you had your first thought.
You were simply sitting here for you do not know how long, you can remember only five events, all the same thing. You remember that you gained something.
You decide to call that thing a unit.
You have 5 units.
>Introspect
>Observe
>Act (roll 1d2)
>Other

Rolled 2 (1d2)
>>1809355
>Act
>>
>>1809357
You decide to act.
Of the two options you could have chosen, you chose the second one.
You grow beside yourself, you aren't sure which part of you was there first though as you have no frame of reference.
You realize that one of your units is missing.
You have 4 units.

Rolled 1 (1d2)
>>1809377
>Create
(not sure if I had to roll or not)
>>
>>1809380
You decide to create, but then you have a thought.
Where should you create more of yourself, on your one of your broad sides or narrow sides?
>>
>>1809396
>broad sides

>>1809327
>>1809330
Got your notice, Call. I thought you died.
If you're worried about this quest not gaining enough traction like your previous version, you might want to announce on /qtg/, Twitter, or your Discord in advance.
>>1809377
>>1809380
If there are multiple different commands, does it go by majority vote?
>>
>>1809403
You create more of yourself on one of your broad sides.
You notice that another unit has disappeared.
You have 4 units.

((Thank you, I'll do that, also, yes, if I get enough players it will run on majority vote.))

>Observe or Introspect
What do we know about how our growth pattern works?
>>
>>1809533
You decide to observe your surroundings.
You turn your focus outward where before you were only focussing on yourself.
You find you have one sense, touch. It allows you to see tiles directly touching one of your body parts.
As soon as you start to feel, you feel something on one of your ends.
It feels, your not sure what it feels like, if you were to describe it you would say if feels like yourself, but more primitive.
Huh, what is that, that at the bottom?
There is a new act option, but it clearly just showed up when you noticed the primitive you.
You wonder what it could be...
>Introspect
>Create
>Act 1 (this one has been here from the beginning)
>Act 2 (this one just showed up)
>Other
>>
>>1810508
Do the Act we haven't done yet.
>>
>>1810542
((You haven't done either.))
>>
>>1810548
Act1
>>
>>1810573
You decide to finally try out the first act.
A piece of you suddenly disappears.
You gain a unit.
You now have 4 units. ((just noticed I made a mistake, the last time I said "You have x units." the x should have been 3))

>Introspect
What is the the green dot? Can you act on it? Eat it?
>>
>>1810879
You decide to do some introspection on the nature of the thing you found.
You said before that it felt like yourself, but, what if it is?
Could it be that everything is an extension of yourself?
If that is true, then that means that all harm to anything is harm to yourself.
You have gained a stance, Passivity.
>Introspect
>Create
>Cannabalise
>Act
>Other
>>
>>1810923
Move (by creating and subsequently cannibalizing) to move around the object and feel its full shape.
>>
>>1810946
You decide to examine the object more closely, you first create yourself around it, but finding you do not have enough units to surround it, you come up with a brilliant idea.
What if you cannibalised the parts of you you want to leave behind and used the units you get from that to create more of yourself ahead of you?
You try it and have now learned to do something new, Move.
As you move around it you pick up more information about it, it is very similar to yourself, made of the same material and presumably with the same abilities as you, but it lacks sentience, even the seeds of sentience that you always had are absent in this being.

>Create
>Canabalise

>>
>>1810998
Is there any way you can wake it up?
>>
>>1811039
((You aren't certain if it has the capability to be woken up.))
>>
>>1811081
Don't eat it, but chew on it a little like you're about to eat it.
>>
>>1811102
You think about chewing on it a bit, but then realise that this goes against your stance of Passivity as you would be doing harm to something.
You notice the Act option has revealed itself to be Eat.
You see this and are horrified, why would you be created to be capable of such, such...
You aren't sure what to call it, but you know it is bad and something you should not be in any way associated with.

>>1811301
Can you push it by moving?
>>
>>1811309
((You move by creating and destroying yourself, so no, no part of you actually moves in the conventional sense.))
>>
>>1811376
Keep exploring, then. Can you keep record of areas you've already moved over?
>>

>>1813160
You decide to leave the green thing to itself and venture off further.
You continue in one direction, making sure to count your steps from the green thing, until you feel something in front of you, it feels much like yourself, except more so than the green thing.
Not only that but it has not only one piece, but two interconnected ones.

>>
>>1813232
If you wait, does this one move or change shape? Can you communicate with it?
>>
>>1813395
You wait for a bit, trying to think things at the being you just found.
You do this for quite some time until the piece of you touching the being disappeared.
You did not gain any units from this disappearance like before though.
You have 0 units.
>Introspect

>>1813447
Introspect about existence of other sentient ones
