《RWO - Dreams of another world》22 - Dude, where'd I leave my avatar?
Advertisement
Um, Where's my save menu? I want to go back.
I was playing BlockMiner with Nyatali. I logged into RWO. I trained with David. I hit my special button. Everything slowed down and I hit David a bunch of times. My body stopped moving and I fell down. I was disconnected from RWO. I was in the nothing place again. A system message kept showing up asking me if I wanted to restart the server. I showed up here logged in as Doktor Urmind.
Now what? I've been here before. There used to be a door in this room. Doktor Urmind made some mystical hand gestures and then we went somewhere else. What hand gestures did he use? I try to remember the hand gestures he made. I can imagine them. I slow them down and look closely. I might have gotten an [interpreting mystical gestures skill] but I really don't know what the gestures meant or did.
I try to copy the first gesture. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. On my fourth try, I see a notification.
[System: opening superuser menu]
Now I see a window with some options:
[Superuser Menu]
Teleport menu Window menu God mode Quick commands
That second gesture was him picking a menu option. [System; +1 interpreting mystical gestures]
I move my hand up and down.The selected item follows my finger. I think he picked 'God mode' that time. I'm not sure I'm ready to try that out yet. The window menu sounds safe.
[Window menu]
System console System dashboard Interface window Hacking window
Nope, let's go back and try quick commands
[Quick commands]
Toggle invisible Jump to Hashi Watch Hashi Hacker chat Check my stocks
Can he go invisible and follow me around? That's a bit creepy. I don't know what that last option is. I'm not sure I want to chat with his hacker friends. I don't know what they'll do if they find out that I'm logged in as Urmind. Then again, they might be able to help. This feels weird messing around with Doktor Urmind's menus. There is one I have to try on this menu.

I pick 'Watch Hashi'. A window pops up. It shows me in this room. I'm seeing all of my movements. I wave at myself. Does he watch me while I'm sleeping? Can he see me in RWO? I close the window. Could I make one for Nyatli? Do I want to watch her when she's not playing with me? Thinking about doing that makes me feel weird. An unpleasant weird. Sounds like a ninja sort of thing to do. I still like the ninja clothes though.
This isn't getting me get out of this room or find out where Doktor Urmind is.
[Teleport menu]
Office Home Jump to Hashi Secret Lab
Home sounds good. I pick 'Home'.
I'm standing in front of a fairly large gameworld house. The sign next to the door reads 'Dr. Urmind'. I'm not stuck in the room. I'm going inside.

(Re)Install
After his death, Garry, AKA Gaz, is summoned by a nameless goddess to another world and tasked with a very important mission, the main characters sets out to travel around in search of a way to accomplish his objectives and live happily ever after.The catch? The mission is to save the same goddess, who've been sealed away for all eternity in who knows where. Having little to no energy left, she was unable to create a decent blessing, so Gaz is left with a weak body in a savage world that he knows nothing about.Also, did i mention he wasn't reincarnated as a human? Neither as a beast? Well...His actual body might actually not be that bad. As long as he survives the first day, of course.-------------Okay, some of you might know from Insania Online, some don't, so might as well explain it here. This is a Re: (ish) style story, with a Scifi (ish) setting and some fantasy (ish) assets (precision is overrated). This is kind of a side project I will work while I take a break from insania.This is a crazy idea i had thanks to a certain game's trailer, and decided to write it. Even if it starts fairly serious, it will probably have a lot of wacky comedy, so don't say you haven't been warned and don't try to take it too seriously. Really. If you are expecting a dramatic and heavy story, this is very probably not what you want(who knows? I'm just starting it...).
