ARCADE SESSION: REBOOTED

[Spriter]

Wait, the limit's changed! We might have a chance at a new TCP. It's no guarantee, but it could be worth a shot before we actually head out?

[cosmo]

say: it sounds okay to me echo! you are very good at planning these things out it’s cool. :-) however you should know that i now have the opportunity to try again in getting you another friend like you so i’m going to do that! i will do my best to get them comfortable and up to speed on my own but if you want to help out with that i encourage it! we’re a team so helping each other is what it’s all about!

spawn: puffy sticker type

I want to explain a bit more about what to expect in the near future to Echo (although I'm not sure how much we-as-Trinket know about the game, I think it's their first time playing right?). Tell her that you think that flying thing was the creation of another person like us, and that there are five people (including us) in total creating stuff here. And hopefully we'll all be able to be friendly with each other, but we don't know for certain, so thats why we need to be cautious. We might be able to make another Tiny Cat Person right now, so if they appear, make sure to treat them nicely.

spawn: Bodyguard type

[knux400]

Sounds good to me, Echo! However, you should know that I might have the opportunity to spawn you a friend- another TCP, like you. If that happens I'm going to do my best to get them up to speed on my own, but it'd be great if you could help with that! We're a team, so helping each other is what it's all about.
Oh! Okay.

You briefly consider spawning a bodyguard type, but the idea of a puffy sticker type sounds more appealing to you. Besides, the limit's only gone up by one- someone probably snatched it up already. Just to be sure, though...

/spawn puffy sticker
 

Oh! There it is!

The puffy sticker type looks around, confused. The way it moves is odd- the picture on the sticker is that of a TCP, but the shape of the sticker changes to fit the picture whenever the picture moves... but it also seems like the whole thing can bend and twist at will? It's bizarre. It stumbles and nearly falls on its back before catching itself and turning towards Echo.

Um... Hello?

Name Puffy Sticker Type: Penguin
Check: Penguin
Teach: Just how to talk right now, we don't want to overwhelm them
Say: Give them a moment Echo, they just spawned- they don't know how to talk yet. I'm sure they'd love to get to meet you, just give them a bit of time to get situated.

[cosmo]

agree with kc, let’s start with only speech. don’t want to overwhelm them!

[Pichi2214]

name: Pancake

i also second the teaching only to talk and welcoming to the world!

[Dzib 9001]

good point. sorry, was excited. 
teach: talk

[knux400]

Oh, it can't talk just yet. Give me a moment!
Oh, okay!

/name puffy sticker type Hank
/check Hank
 

Hank is a PUFFY STICKER TYPE TCP. They are currently feeling a bit OVERWHELMED by the number of things around them. There's just so many things to look at, and they can't seem to focus on any one specific thing. Thier health is currently at its maximum of GOOD.

/teach Hank speech

You briefly consider teaching them some other stuff, but just speech will do for now. Besides, they're a bit stressed as it is. All of a sudden, Hank disappears from the screen! Oh... Wait, no, they just turned sideways. Crisis averted.
 

...Hi.
Hello Hank and welcome to your new home! I'm Trinket and the TCP in front of you is Echo.
Hi!

Hank seems to calm down a tiny bit, but they still seem overstimulated by the sheer number of objects around them. They find a quiet corner and sit down, taking the TCP equivalent of a deep breath.

Are you alright?
Is there somewhere less... uh... cluttered... I can go?

[Lilium Mortem]

/Create simple soundproofed bedroom, simple bed, lights with dimmer options, solid wood door on the second floor.  

/talk
Just set up a nice quiet room for you hank, It's on the second floor, Echo can show you. Sorry about the clutter, we really should clean that up.

Hi, long time lurker first time poster(I think?)

[ಠ_ಠ]

Trinket: dont forget to hydrate after a long session of gaming. Hydration is important.
/talk: Hold on everyone I am thirsty I will be back in a minute talk amongst yourselves. When I get back I will make a big hole to put things in! 
afterwards:

/create: bottomless pit

[1011686]

creating a bottomless pit kind of seems like a bad idea. I would rather just create another room in the cave walls that's empty of anything. although, being sensitive to clutter could also mean Hank is claustrophobic, in which case this whole environment isn't that great for them.
>CREATE: smooth, unobtrusive cubic containers along the wall of the main room of the house. Tell Echo that we can't move the objects around ourselves (i mean unless we made a robot or something that could do that for us, but i feel like that would increase the tech level, and also might just cause more clutter) but putting the various objects scattered around into containers might make Hank feel more comfortable, although cleaning up isn't a pressing concern right now.

[knux400]

Thankfully, you brought a bottle of water with you when you came in. You've been taking sips from time to time.

/create soundproof bedroom, containers, storage room

Hey Hank, I made a room for you that should be a bit better for you. It's upstairs, Echo can show you.
Right. It's this way.

Echo leads Hank upstairs and quickly finds the new room. It's a pleasant purple color, and the floor is carpeted with a gentle tile pattern. There's a sliding switch for the lights and a simple bed. Echo closes the door behind them and Hank sits down on the bed.
 

...This is better. Thank you. Sorry for being... yeah.
It's okay! There's a lot of things here, and it was a bit hard for me too.
...Yeah...
Do you want me to step out for a bit?
...If that's okay. I'll come out in a bit, I just need to get used to, uh... things.
Okay.

You also notify Echo about the boxes and the storage area, and she takes a moment to go look.
 

This is good, we can put some of the stuff we're not using in there for later. Hey Golem?

The golem gives a small metallic grunt.

Can you load the broken petting machine, the lanterns, and the chair into these boxes?

The golem gives an affirmative grunt, and moves towards the broken petting machine first.

Neat, thanks. Okay, so um... Trinket? Do you think you can take care of Hank by yourself for a bit? I still think we should check out what that flying thing was.

[Lilium Mortem]

/talk Echo
Not sure if that's a good idea, Echo. if you leave the base that means an adventure right? so even if we stayed with hank the most we could do is talk to them. sure we could keep them company, but you'd be out there on your own. I mean yeah we should figure out what that flying thing is, but I'm scared of you getting hurt.

[ಠ_ಠ]

/create: mothy-talkie, a mothlie-shaped walkie talky that anyone can use to talk directly to Trinket, regardless of where the user is
/talk Echo
If you really want to go, take this mothy-talkie with you
/create nametag for golum that says "Frank Gollem"

[King-Clod]

I agree, but make that name-tag a pin. We have a brand to uphold.

[victorianflorist]

/talk Echo 
We'll keep an eye on them, we trust you. Get equipped and go your own way.

Take this action only if and after Hank has left their room
/talk Hank
Hey buddy, how are you doing?
