NPC Inbox: Fear

[lingeringfear]

[Fear's inbox message is simply a crackling of static, with vague thumps here and there. It goes on for about thirty seconds before cutting short, like the sound was snapped off.]

Not my doing. I'm not the body specialist.

What are you supposed to look like?

text

[godofthemachine]

Then who put me in this body?

text

[lingeringfear]

Is it not to your liking?

text

[godofthemachine]

No, it's not. It's too vulnerable and it can't actually do anything useful.

text

[lingeringfear]

That's what I think as well.

Your forms are confusing.

Maybe it seemed like it would be preferable? The vast majority of you visitors have a similar body.

[There was a small fraction of AM that might have preferred a human body, just to finally experience all that he had longed to experience...

But he never wanted to give up his relative immortality and power.]

I have seen non-humans here get to keep their original bodies.

text

[lingeringfear]

Yes.

What did your original body look like?

text

[godofthemachine]

It was vast and metallic.

[It's a bad description but it's hard to describe a body that just was.]
