The fact that it's Heat and Clockwork is probably significant, since it's not exactly the same thing as if you'd said Heat and Clocks. The clock suggests time, which would reference your aspect (so I assume Rose's aspect is light, if the hunch follows), but clockwork makes me think of...gears.
Knowing you, the obvious solution to creating a scratch would be with a bladed weapon, which you like to use. But nothing about heat or clockwork would suggest blades, and you've suggested that I needed to know that to work it out. So it's something else.
...
Or maybe it's that it's a different kind of scratch. Not one like a wound or relief from an itch, but — that's what it's called when a DJ moves a record on a turntable, isn't it?
wow gotta say you work things out pretty fast but after seeing you chew up and devour info like your pacman not surprised thats right dj scratches the reset device for our session was a giant turntable and disc the scratch is the release of temporal energies that change the only things it can for a more favorable outcome
That's an oddly specific game mechanic. Does that mean your interest in turntables was influenced by your destined role in the game, or was the game influenced by your interest?
the trick to all of this is not to overthink it overthink it and thats when you start failing the loops and everything else its all ass backwards
for the sake of this whole explaining the game business lets say that each planet is tailored to the person it belongs to the two have always existed but the reason for their interests didnt come because of the planet you remember how godtiering happens right
feels weird discussing this and not being there kinda like dunno i just never talk about it youve seen what happens when john gets going it all sounds insane and thats not even touching this next part to make the whole death thing make a little more sense makes no sense for a dead body to get back up does it
i mean despite being removed from all we know that place has rules and logic once a body dies it cant be used again or get back up
mind blown yet or are you sizing me up for a new straight jacket
you got it right when a session starts each player possesses two bodies but one they dont know about at the start it also has a secret to it that secret gives us two ways to godtier
Meaning that if you die once before reaching God Tier, and are revived by a kiss, then you're precluded from reaching God Tier entirely because you don't have a third body to ascend into?
when you die normally you can get revived with just a kiss the dream body takes over in that case but if killed and placed on your quest bed or you know die on it your dream body ascends becoming the godtier self and you continue on
the secret is the second quest bed and the dream body theres another location besides the main battlefield and the planets the moons the dream bodies are on within each moon is the other quest beds if the dream body dies on it even if you already died once you ascend anyway thats something we found out the hard way so i can back that up
shit you caught onto that one fast nothing really gets past you does it yeah i did didnt think you could but then i accidentally went godtier and here we are
And if you didn't know that you could, that means you must've spent at least part of the game thinking you never would — the portion after you'd died the first time, but before you ascended anyway.

kinda like
dunno i just never talk about it
youve seen what happens when john gets going
it all sounds insane and thats not even touching this next part to make the whole death thing make a little more sense
makes no sense for a dead body to get back up does it
i mean

no subject
no subject
you got it right
when a session starts each player possesses two bodies but one they dont know about at the start
it also has a secret to it
that secret gives us two ways to godtier
no subject
But if the dead body doesn't actually revive, then achieving God Tier means that someone has to kiss a corpse, doesn't it?
no subject
when youre kissed the same process happens that would for godtier
but you dont get the godtiering you would if you just died on your quest bed
no subject
no subject
i told you the other body has a secret
its an exception to the rules i just told you
but only if its used to godtier
theres two ways to godtier
just like theres two quest beds not one
no subject
Well, you've made something clear to me, at least. So how does the process work?
no subject
you can get revived with just a kiss
the dream body takes over in that case
but if killed and placed on your quest bed or you know die on it
your dream body ascends becoming the godtier self and you continue on
the secret is
the second quest bed and the dream body
theres another location besides the main battlefield and the planets
the moons the dream bodies are on
within each moon is the other quest beds
if the dream body dies on it
even if you already died once
you ascend anyway
thats something we found out the hard way
so i can back that up

he's totally annoyed at himself
this is why nobody talks to kirigiri, frankly
he got so sidetracked he forgot his point. Its like every talk with rose ever
she does have many roselike qualities
she really does
