Sigh … "Miss Lottie?" Oh. Sorry, Stitches. I was just waiting for you. "I do remember locking the door when I left" Did you? I didn't use it. Sorry, I was just looking at your teddy bear collection. "You can take one, if you like." Really? These aren't … antiques or something? "Oh no. I made them myself."

Huh. I didn't think golems had hobbies. Is this another task … "These are practice for maintaining my own body. I cannot fulfill my tasks if my cloth and stuffing rot away." Is that why your limbs are all different colours? "Yes. It is … quite difficult to coordinate colours without a real sense of vision …" Yeah, that would also explain your fashion sense. "I was told this was quite stylish!"

Yeahs1

Played

It … really isn't your colour. I could have picked out something nice at the Ables'. "Next time, then. How did your meeting with Sable go?" Well, she … made it clear she didn't want to talk to me. "Of course. I've heard she is slow to warm up to people, but she can be very kind …" Yeah, I've been … banned for life. From the store. … "… unless you come on too strongly, of course."

"Lottie …" You think you're disappointed? I'm rapidly running out of places to buy clothes! Ugh, it's just been a frustrating day all over. Maybe Tom's right. "About what?" Maybe I'm not really trying to find a trolley for his emotional baggage just to help a friend. I just … feel so powerless sometimes. Scratch that, all the time. Nothing I do ever seems to really help anyone.

"Miss Lottie, you have a power beyond what the rules of magic are capable of …" I get the irony, Stitches. Thanks. And yeah, preventing the … universe as we know it from being destroyed in a system crash? That's pretty important. I get that. But still I feel … stuck. … "I understand. Then we are not so different after all, Miss Lottie." Huh?

"You feel as if did not choose to fill that role, right? And yes you choose to remain in it every day. This reminds me of the parable of the waiter …" Sartre again? "Yes. You're living in bad faith, Miss Lottie: the belief that your current situation is forced upon you by factors you can't control. But while I am bound to bad faith by my very nature, your shackles are but illusions …" Sorry, no.

Yeahs1

Played

"It can be difficult to accept the truth of your freedoms, but …" You don't understand! On one level of reality it might look like my life choices led me here, but on the other … I was made to do this. Literally! Concepted, programmed, and born into this world for the purpose of guiding the player character and maintaining the world. I'm not desperately seeking purpose, I know EXACTLY why I exist!

"And I was made to comfort and educate an orphaned seven-year-old." Th-that's not the same! Ruth died a long time ago. You can't do that anymore! "No …" … I-I'm really sorry, Stitches. I wasn't thinking … "Perhaps a different example would help you. What is … the purpose of a chair?" Huh? Well, you sit on it. Pretty straightforward. "Are you certain?"

Yeahs1

Played

Yeah. It was designed for that purpose. Bought for that purpose. Used for that purpose, mostly … "There. Keep following that thought." You mean the chair's affordances? "What is that?" Ah, that's designspeak. It's whatever you can do with something. So a chair would also afford … standing on it, propping open a door … maybe you can weigh down something with it? I don't know.

Yeahs1

Played

"Then why say it's purpose is to be sat on?" Because that's what it's best at. What it's design is optimized for. Other furniture can fill those roles much more effectively … "What if a leg breaks, then?" You'd just get a new one … "You're looking at the wrong side of the question, Lottie! A broken chair is still a chair. What does the chair 'afford' after it's broken and thrown away?"

Yeahs1

Played

Um … nothing, I guess. It loses its purpose by being broken … "I disagree. A broken chair may still serve as a perch for a seagull. Or shelter a junkyard rat from the rain. Even when it decomposes, it serves as nutrition to bacteria and plants. There is always something for the chair to provide, Lottie. Do you see now?" So you're saying … the chair is never without purpose? "No. I am not."

Yeahs1

Played

"I'm saying that filling the role you were made for, or maintaining the role you find yourself it, is not the prerequisite for being valuable that you seem to feel it is. It is not bad to be a chair, any more than it is to be a step-stool or a rainshade. But it has to be your choice, Lottie! You always have a choice." But if the only other options hurt everyone else … "Then it is still a choice."

Yeahs1

Played

"If you truly knew you could not accept any other option, then you should be content that you made the best choice, based on your own values. However, we wouldn't be having this conversation at all if that were the case. Perhaps there is an option you haven't truly considered." You think so? Wow, you're turning into a little guru, aren't you! "This is merely my own limited understanding."

Yeahs1

Played

So what did you choose? … "I am not sure I am able to …" That sook-a-monkey thing. "Tsukumogami." Right. I asked around. It's a Japanese legend about how objects can turn into guardian spirits after a hundred years of care, right? Is that really true? "I do not know, but … I am century old myself. If sheer existence is enough to grant me a … a real soul …" … Have you talked to Ankha? "Who?"

Yeahs1

Played

You don't know Ankha!? She's only the best necr… I mean, someone who can give you a definitive answer on that! Heh. I'll get you two in touch. It must be a rare event for you to meet someone who's actually older than you. … "She's not the Queen of Cats, is she?" … She is. "I honestly don't know if I should be surprised anymore …" At least act surprised. She likes that. —————
