Ahh, console video games (or vidcons as I call them). the ultimate medium of expression, able to convey any emotion ranging from hatred to love, loyalty to fear, all in front of our eyes. Ah, and with lovingly crafted art, music, and the ability to control the action, vidcons are the ultimate combination of the high arts. While I tend to play the stoic, I will be the first to admit that vidcons haven driven me to cry, to scream and shout, to feel actual hate; such is the power of this force beyond our wildest reckoning. And here I am, before you, to temp your tongues with the taint of such a tantalizing topic.
And the Japanese, the true geniuses behind the world of video games. Pah, I throw my scorn upon such incompetents of the West who would mock the true art of the Japanese with 'games' such as Baldur's Gate and Madden. Perhaps it is that the West is not as intelligent as the East, but this is a matter for another day. Japan has given us such masterpieces as the Final Fantasy series, Star Ocean, Wild Arms, and of course, Arc the Lad. Yes, some of the finest vidcons in the world were created by Japanese. I come to you today to ask you in all earnesty, what is your favorite vidcon? I will reveal mine after the grand debate has illustriously begun, but not before the first poster falls victim to my plot of discussion.
In other words, this is a thread on an imaginary forum our avatars frequent. The topic can fluctuate, and its mostly just general discussion.

Thanks for the help!

Erm. By "dysfunctional amalgamation", I meant a pile of tissue that doesn't have vital organs working, like a metabolism, limb coordination, or breathing, and as a result would die very quickly. You not only live, but you've got reality-warping powers? Please tell me you made that up.

Nothing's surprising to me anymore.

Cheesus is a Maker, he isn’t supposed to make sense.
Now I’m even more confused…

Ok, I'll give the short version of the explanation. When GlaDos attacked, I found a thing in her lab about combining DNA and imbuing it with cosmic energy to make an artificial God. Turns out that Fatal and I were the result. Turns out I can mimic the physical forms of any DNA I have in me. A lot of magic holds me together, which is probably why I freak out so easily when spacetime is screwed with. If you want more info, look further back, I recorded a recap in the chat logs for anyone who anyone who wasn't here for the original explanation. I spent too long on this lore lol.
Praise the Lamb!

I can understand the whole time distortion thing, but why did you give us a key that you know could distort time if in the wrong hands?

you shouldve read through stepex's multiverse theories... which I realize now we have to entirely throw out...
...how was this civilization not space faring?
I look to the stars... but that's mostly because there isn't anything else interesting
Extreme math nerd
On that note, I should definitely write the theories down somewhere ![[lol]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lol2v12_4863.png "[lol]"){kind=small}
You know what, forget about it. I'm off to take a vacation, see y'all... sometime soon?

The key wasn't the problem. the door you were trying to open has a moral test. If you are pure in soul, at least to my people's standards, the door would work fine. If you were impure, they assumed whoever had the key had either killed for it or stolen it, then killed me to get the blood for the door. They figured that if they reached me, then killed an admittedly very resilient god, then the person was unstable and extremely powerful, and the multiverse was doomed. They set the door to destroy everything if the key was used in the wrong hands. Terminus is NOT pure enough for the door, so the emergency protocol was triggered. As for where my creators are now... I do not know. They may have been destroyed by Fatal, they might be living in a universe we haven't seen here yet, or they... they could have ended up destroying themselves with a dangerous experiment. I hope for option 2.

probably back to his earth, and to be distinct the earth you know and the earth I know and his earth are all different earths.

This isn't Earth.

Earth. Isn't that the name of an element, too?

I've never been to this...Earth thing. What's it like?

FYI, if someone announces that they want to destroy the multiverse, please ping me. I'm planning to just take a break from this thread and explore some solar systems in my homeworld, but if the multiverse is at risk, that's still part of my responsibilities.

It’s the place where humans live.
Yeah, all the cool stuff’s from there!

But I'm human, and I've never been there.

That’s weird!
So in this “multiverse”, there are worlds housing humans that aren't Earth? Interesting.

consider blue text to be me using a version of the message that excludes Mari. guys, hold on. You know mister Black and White text? Don't trust him. I did some digging, and turns out he's some sort of SPOILERS FOR OMORI! alter ego to a kid named Sunny. He's crazy strong there, and we have no hope of beating him. He made a whole fake world just to keep Sunny from finding... something. I don't know what. Mari is in that world, so things are screwy there. DON'T tell her any of this, please. I somehow know nearly every franchise referenced in this forum lol.

I guess it is pretty interesting, huh?
Listen, weird cheese-guy. I'm trying to protect him.

Ironically, the one franchise you didn’t know was the one you decided to make a big part of Cheeziverse lore.
Welp, time to do that moral compass thing again. What was so dangerous that Sunny couldn’t know about it?
SKREEEEEEEONK!
oh hey it's that guy from the thing!
Something very horrible happened to him and his sister, and I exist to protect him from having to deal with that pain.

I am not trying to stop you, Omori. I know what can happen if someone learns of a truth they should not know. I am simply warning the others, and you by proxy: if you try ANYTHING with the red hands or that knife, I will not hesitate to blast you back to White Space.
