Mahz showing up for a short while and disappearing, while distressing, is also almost objectively hilarious. Can't wait til he comes back in... *checks watch* 18 years.

Anyone else feel like they've lost IQ points steadily since their teenage years? No? Just me? Cool.

Uh, I guess we could try writing a letter or something. It was Stella's idea, so I don't want her to feel left out either...


Good point. Stella, want to help us out too?
<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

You mean with getting you outside?


Unless you'd rather do something else. *Smiles*
<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

Even in the worst case scenario, you get to spend time with Dawn, and isn't that motivation enough?


Yeah, that's true. Alright, Dawn, what do you want to start with?
<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

You just listed all this stuff you haven't tried yet. Go try it. Replace one of her classes or something with it, I don't know.


Okay, sure.

Be excited about working with our daughter.


I'm just not sure what angle you see that we can attack this from. I'm all for working with Dawn on a project, but I also don't want to waste her time on something that might not have an answer.
<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

Alright! Dawn, daddy, you two have a project to work on together. Once you're done, we can go visit that market.


Uh... Okay.
<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

Okay, but that still doesn't change the fact that you can get something out of this place.


Well, I don't know exactly how it was amended. I'm taking what are at best educated guesses. It's totally possible that I can send out messages, or video, or audio, or something, but it's just as possible that I can't. I haven't tried anything that doesn't have a person as a conduit.
<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

Okay, so how does whatever-you-call-it know the difference between something coming in, talking to you, and going out vs. you sending something out?


Because that's where the concepts of things are. Imagine that in the book, the word "blue" was written. We know what blue is, and that blue now exists in the story and physically on the page, right? But now imagine that the definition of the word "blue" was changed to that of "red." Suddenly, everything that was blue is still blue, physically the same, but is defined differently, changing the meaning of what's written. That's how the powers of the Codex work, they change concepts. So in this case, what I believe happened is that the definition of "me" in the dictionary was amended to include the phrase: "Only exists within a certain dimension," to keep with the analogy.

How do the Codex know the difference between something coming in, talking to you, and going out vs. you sending something out?


They don't have to. Their powers run off of what's called the "Not a Number Sector", or the NNS for short. If you think of Existence like... Like a book. If you think of it like a book, that's being written constantly, the Not a Number Sector is like the dictionary. There's the physical book and the words written on it are physical, but they only have meaning because of the NNS. It's why I died in the first place; the original Generate-class needs to be able to delete stuff to run the NNS correctly. So things were pushed in a direction by a certain few Codex to make one of the Triggers "become complete." That happened to end up being me, so I had to go in order to have the "compete" Trigger reinstated in the original Generate. That made it so the NNS wouldn't overload, and made it temporarily possible to go up to the next Scale.
At least that's where they should have went. Apparently it wasn't that simple, but that's unrelated.

Can you write letters to anyone outside of home?


I haven't tried. I've relied on visitations from those I needed to contact.
