FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

you try to explain to them how all crystalline life is blessed by the cave-mother, but they fail to grasp the subtleties of your teachings.

this

I take over a Colonel's body and try to play therapist

>>8539549
>>8539557

you stand silently waiting as they go about their lives, after deciding you're not going to crush them. the meat-creatures grow old and die, but new ones spring up to replace them. eventually you grasp their disgusting meat tongue and could probably speak it if you had something worth talking to them about

>>8539579
"Nice weather today isn't it?"
"What's your name?"
"Where are we?"

>>8539579

you grab hold of the nearest meat-man and ask him these questions. his responses are:

"AAAUAAAGHG!"
"HELP!"
"SHIT SHIT SHIT!"

you do not think these are correct answers to your questions.

BECOME TIBERIUM

>>8539625

the meat-man takes you to another meat-man, surrounded by several other meat-men who appear to be wearing metal as a skin.

you approve of these meat-folk who are endeavoring to become more rock-like.

>>8539603
>>8539642

you begin explaining how the fundamental nature of existence favors the rocky and crystalline. the meat-folk look at you in fear and confusion.

>>8539660
Great, we are a racist crystal. Awesome

>>8539660
Try to talk to them and ask them where we are and what can we do to win their trust.

>>8539647
NO. BECOME PHAZON AND EAT FUCKING EVERYTHING.

>>8539679
this

>>8539660

fucking gay. we sat around for 10,000 years just to become the first stormfrontfag? what about shit like, does free will exist? is there a God? are Good and Evil real or only in our minds?

>>8539647
>>8539697

...why not both?

Read Kant

>>8539679

after overcoming their fear, the head meat-man explains that you are in the tiny mining village of Podunk. he says that you should probably leave, as they have enough trouble already with the "godsdamned goblins" and don't need anything else to worry about

>>8539707

you consider such things to be trivialities. free will does not exist as all things are set in stone. you do not think there is a god but are open-minded about it, especially if said god happens to embody stoney qualities. good and evil are meaningless to you, you're a goddamn rock.

>>8539731
Ponder on the fact that you stood around in the village for a long ass time and were probably thought to be some weird ass monument

Also go crush the goblin meat creatures.

>>8539731
Ask them where the Goblins is and what is the problem. Offer to protect their village.

>>8539731
Goblins?
Hmm, We should stay here, keep an eye out for them, perhaps they are more rocky then these meat things

Kill them all- they're rooting up our brethren.

>>8539751

you ponder the nature of your previous pondering. nothing good comes of it.

>8539752

the head meat-man explains that some "fuckin greenskinned bastards" have been running off with their mine-carts. you disapprove of such kid-napping, and offer to crush these "godsdamn goblins" the meat-man looks around nervously before thanking you

>>8539793
Attack the Goblins! Free our fellow rocks! Turn them into Golem if possible. Then defend the village and help them develop.

>>8539716
Fuck that shit, Kant died a virgin. Do we want to die virgins?

Read some Rand, bitch was stupid crazy, but at least she fucking got some. LOTS of some.

>>8539815
Also teach our Golem comrade philosophy and teach the meat-mans too.

>>8539815

you go wait by the mine carts for these goblins. you wait a few nights, pondering the nature of goblins from what little you know.

then, some goblins come.

they are small and soft like the meat-folk, but much greener and a little smaller. you think they are probably also made of meat.

as you grab one by the head, you find that they are, in fact, meaty, and have many different colors of stuff within them. the others flee as the one you grabbed begins to leak his many colors upon your perfect crystalline form.

>>8539876
Disect. Study. Learn.

>>8539890
assimilate, conquer, expand

>>8539876

try to break off a shard of ourselves into the goblin without killing it. we may be able to control these meat bodies through sympathetic vibrations.

>>8539890

you begin to pull the goblin apart. you really don't understand how these meat-things function with all these different kinds of meat. the pieces of meat you pull from his midsection are of different shapes and colors, as opposed to the unity and solidity of your own body.

furthermore, any attempt to put the goblin back together fails, despite your best and most solid attempts.

truly these beings are going about this the wrong way.

>>8539918
sigh, wait a bit longer

>>8539918
Wear it's skin. Wait.

>>8539918
Follow the Goblins to their base and destroy them. Then return to the meat-man and tell them there's no more Goblins problem.

>>8539951
Eff, it's getting late. I meant its

>>8539917

the goblin is already quite dead, and frankly you don't see the appeal in a meat body when you could have the solidity of stone. however, as you once suspected, buried under the meat is a body of stone, made of noble calcium.

you strip away all the meat, leaving only the stone frame it was hanging on. unfortunately this leaves the pieces separated, so you bind them together with shards from your own body. as your shards begin to vibrate the calcium stone, the goblin's frame picks itself up off the ground.

>>8539964
CREATE AN ARMY!

>>8539957
technically, both are correct depending on what dialect of English one is using...

>>8539951
wear the flawed meat-skin over our perfect form?
surely thou jest

>>8539976
(of Ex-Goblins)

>>8539979
1) Not the dialect I'm using
2) It's a disguise. If we wear the seeming of meat, they will never suspect us.

jesus christ. I'm writing this down for future BBEG: 'insane golem that controls skeleton army'

>>8539990
insane *Racist* Golem

>>8539981
BE PHAZON AND TURN THE GOBLINS INTO SPACE PIRATES! TELL THE SPACE PIRATES TO MAKE SCIENCE AND USE SCIENCE TO MAKE THARDUS!!!

I decide to try to find more of these tiny goblin things

>>8539954

now that you know about how much these goblins weigh, it is trivial for you to feel the vibrations of their feet through the earth and track them to their lair. your new stone friend follows along, and speaks of matters philosophical to you. you would engage him in friendly debate, but as his views are very much in line with yours there is little to discuss. this is not surprising as he was until recently a part of your glorious crystalline form.

the goblins live within a grand and noble cave, and while you can appreciate this sentiment, you have decided it is time to separate the meat from the inner stone. the goblins attempt to resist, but their tiny pieces of metal do little more than scratch your glorious form.

>>8539976

you set to work liberating and bringing to life the inner stone of these goblins. you feel that they are much happier this way.

>>8540040
See if you can do the same to their pieces of metal

>>8540040
return to birth cavern with army, start mining for others like you and consume any crystal formation that is not sapient

>>8540102

Or even better, try to find a way to kindle sentience in other non-sentient crystals.

>>8540078

while you can bridge the gap from your own form to the calcium inner stone of the meat creatures, the shards of metal are too different in nature to hear your crystalline song.

however, within the goblin's cave you do find plentiful amounts of loose iron ore in mine carts, which may prove agreeable in its raw state.

>>8540078
Can we realize that 'metal' is just noble stone hammered and beaten by meaty things until it is aligned into a crystalline form??

that meat DARES to enslave stone and literally bend stone to its will is a great sadness. possibly deserving of retribution.

>>8540136
Try your hand at animating the Iron ore

>>8540136
>however, within the goblin's cave you do find plentiful amounts of loose iron ore in mine carts, which may prove agreeable in its raw state.

It's a start. Convince iron ore to help us help it help us all.

Vibrate.

Let nature take it course.

When we add parts of our glorious form to others do we regenerate?

>>8540205
Bah, distributed intelligence. Eventual stoney hivemind

>>8540187

you begin piling together a body of ore,fusing together parts with your crystals where necessary. the ore begins to resonate in tune with your crystals, and lurches into life.

with the ore you've found, you create two such creatures.

to recap, our current circle of friends consists of:
13 golblems
2 iron ore golems

two of your goblin golems are of smaller size than the rest, suggesting they may have been younger by goblin standards.

>>8540240
MINE! MINE! FIND! CONSUME! GROOOOOOW!

>>8540205

as you walk you draw minerals from the earth, repairing the small scratches and cracks that you sometimes suffer.

as you understand now, meat-creatures have no such capability.

>>8540240

Yaay, we're making friends! Let's discuss just how superior stone is to lesser forms, while we seek to grow this circle. Any nearby crystalline formations that look promising?

Tthis has took a turn of the disturbingly awesome kind

>>8540258
Return to the town with your followers, tell the first meat things you have dealt with their so called "Goblins"

>>8540288

You begin discussing your thoughts on weak meaty creatures. The golblems view them with pity, having had the most experience with them. The ore golems are rather neutral on the matter, as is to be expected of ore golems, amirite?

>>8540302

You and your friends begin a journey back to the small mining town of Podunk. While you care little about the feelings of the meat-men, you are eager to see how happy they must be when you not only return their stolen ore, but have improved it!

However, the meat-men are for some reason angry and scared again. The ones wearing metal skin begin forming a line in front of you and your friends, holding pieces of metal.

>>8540315

Huh, seeing as how they're made of ferrous ore, I'd think their views might tend to be.... *shades* polarized. (YEAAAAAAAHHHHH!)

What counsel do the golblems give regarding the meaty townsfolk?

>>8540363

The golblems inform you that the meat-folk are mostly the same as goblins, and have similar stoney frames inside. They bear them no ill will, however.

>>8540352
Commend them for attempting to utilize the perfection of metal and stone, and offer to liberate their inner stone.

>>8540352
"Hello meat-folk, I have fixed your problem"

Also, requesting archive, so I can show this thread to my DM.

>>8540405

This.

>>8540400

Not so much this. The commending them for seeking to be more like stone, sure.

>>8540400
>>8540352
grab one and demonstrate the process of liberation

>>8540405
>>8540400

You joyously congratulate them on their use of stone to supplement their weak and fleshy bodies, but inform them that there is a much easier and effective way for them to achieve such greatness. You demonstrate by stripping the meat from one of them, showing the solid and strong stone within.

>>8540431
we're so helpful! <3

>>8540431
We do love our new friends and love to help them whenever we can

>>8540445

We sure are! The meat-men stare in what you decide must be amazement as you fuse the stones together into a glorious stone-man!

>>8540431
Notice that their fleshy faces often bear the emotions and sentiments of the creature itself, and watch their faces in anticipation of their joyous surprise at the fact that perfection is so close.

>>8540431
can we incorporate the metal skins and pieces into the new golem form?

>>8540431

*sigh* So much for trying the diplomatic approach. We're behaving almost as rashly as the short-lived meatbodies.

I suppose we should set the golblems to pre-stripping, that we might expedite the process of realigning the inner stone.

>>8540466

The golblems rush out to greet the meat-men, who for some reason begin to hit them with their metal shards.

You really don't understand...

>>8540497
Suggest that we all sit down and engage in a discussion over this impasse.

They seem to be causing damage to our little friends forms, we shall request that they stop.

>>8540497
...They are trying to destroy the glorious stone. It all makes sense now. The twisted metal they hold, the metal skins, those are trophies of their victories against glorious stone.
Meat is the enemy. We must destroy.

>>8539304
i still point out that metal is just stone made crystal by fire and force.

metal armaments should look to us like the human flesh 'art' from horror movies like hellraiser and house of a thousand corpses look to humans.

>>8540497

They obviously see how superior the new exsistance is and are trying to assist the goblin golems by adding more metal to them. We must help all the meat creatures become more like us.

>>8540497

If any of the metal-clad meatbodies seem to be causing an exceptional problem, have the iron ore golems assist. And we should ponder how to go about waking the metal objects. It's a travesty that our stone-brothers should be doomed to denial of sentience by the acts of meat-beings.

>>8540525
agreed.

>>8540538
o.o This is a good point. But I think the golem must believe that metal/stone/crystal is perfect, no matter the form. Hence, perfection.

>>8540564
damn granite... always so destructive, amiright?

>>8540513

You ask them to calm down so that you can explain to them why their actions are inappropriate, but the meat-folk no longer appear to be willing to listen to you. While you don't fear much for the safety of your own form or that of the ore golems, your other new friends could be damaged if the meat-folk keep hitting them.

>>8540551
>>8540541
>>8540525

You begin to strip the meat-creatures. They resist, but you know that once you liberate the stone within they will listen to reason.

The other meat-folk of the town begin running away while you and your friends strip those wearing metal.

>>8540551
Didn't the Golem mention that free-will and sentience is inconsequential?

>>8540525

Destroy... such a negative term. We're liberating, brother. Freeing precious stone from the sickening grasp of flesh. Purifying these creatures, that they might know perfection, and turning them from their wicked ways.

>>8540538

While your own form can't mesh with the metal, your ore brothers are able to speak with it well enough. They aren't able to bring life to it, but can meld it into their forms easily enough.

>>8540596
>>8540585
I think the Golem would be void of such emotion, but I do agree that by this point he would view meat as the embodiment of imperfection.

BTW, op; what has the Golem said about things like trees, water, the sky, clouds, the sun, and all that good stuff?

>>8540615

Then as we awaken the stone of the metal-clad ones, fuse their metal possessions into their forms. The stone that served them as meat-beings should delight at aiding them in a more enlightened state.

>>8540621

You can appreciate trees. While not quite so solid as yourself, they too understand the importance of being well-rooted and solid.

The sun causes your crystalline structure to glow, which you take as further proof of your own glory and beauty.

Water is a bastard substance, and wouldn't you know, the meat-things are all full of it.

>>8539304

Our rogue trader is a crystal statue

(ideas for OUR BBEG: gem eating dragon, delver, xorn. seriously a xorn burrowing through us would suck.)

>>8540656

While you set to work bringing the stone-men to life, your ore brothers begin shaping their metal into their own bodies, bringing greater solidity to their forms.

You approve heartily.

Also, we should set the iron ore golems to casting about for other rock-brethren suitable for awakening. Assuming they are capable of performing the task, that is.

>>8540674
Speaking of, can we burrow?? Or must we cast about on the surface for other suitable rocks and crytals and ores to awaken?

>>8540662
So he doesn't like water? curious. I thought he might appreciate the solidness and unity of fluids, the ability to join and disjoin, but always be cohesive.

I'm getting way into this role. Grats OP, this is some of the best RP I've ever done :P

>>8540704

After donning their new plates of iron, your ore-brothers set out in search of their kin.

Meanwhile, you tend to the injuries of your golblem friends. Some of their stone was fractured, but now that they are no longer hindered by meat you are able to repair them easily.

>>8540736
Examine their shelters

>>8540736
So what next???

>>8540726

((Water is a universal solvent, and the bane of any rock formation. Weathering would be one of the few things that the golem would be vulnerable to. Makes sense.

Also, ITT: Iron Quest II - Now with real iron!))

Seek out the meat philosopher

>>8540726
my guess, water is the Eater, the Winnower, the Inexorable Enemy of all things solid and stalwart.

Water is that which grinds down the rock. Erosion is our entropy. We would be immortal if not for water, and to a lesser degree, air. The erosion both cause is our only real symptom of aging.

>>8540763
Hmm. That's interesting. It's like they are two sides of the same coin. Both cohesive, yet incompatible. Neato.

YEAH, EXPLORE THE MEAT VILLAGE

>>8540789

Second meat village exploration. Use any found metals to augment the golblems, as they seem the most fragile.

>>8540726

Water stands against everything you believe in. While stone stands strong and maintains its form, water is subject to the whims of whatever land or object contains it. Also this >>8540770 We are order, water is obviously chaos.

>>8540724

You could, if you so chose, move into the earth easily enough, but you can move much quicker out in the open.

>>8540751

The meat-folk have fled their shelters. You commune with the stone houses and inform them that their residents have left, but they are content to wait. You understand - waiting comes naturally to your kind.

>>8540726
but it seeps into our forms and sullies our perfection, cracking and shattering it. these meatmen clearly use it to subdue their inner stone. water itself changes so frivolously. it hardens into a form like our own, but disappears entirely if left alone in the sun. clearly it is the antithesis to us. ((also, can we feel temperature))

>>8540809

So animate buildings are a no-go, then?

>>8540838

>((also, can we feel temperature))

You are aware of it, but it doesn't bother you so long as it isn't damaging. You can repair the minor cracking caused by the coldest of winters and the hottest of summers.

Now, burrowing into magma might be problematic, but you're smart enough to avoid that.

>>8540809
So as a burrowing creature whose flesh is stone and whose stone is kin...

That mine we were in was horribly grisly.

As are most stone objects made by men-things. They take delight in 'finding the shape inside' then they chip and chop and cut and crush their way through rock layers and stone edges until the poor captive immobile stone is made to suite THEIR needs.

Retribution should come.

Also are the dwellings patient or simply broken down and beaten? Like any good slave?

this is insanely good. how do we archive this?

>>8540873
give them animate form but tell them to wait for meat things to return. Head north.

>>8540861

You offer them animated forms, but they have decided to wait for new residents, or for the old ones to return. You admire their sense of duty and purpose, even if you don't agree with them.

>>8540838
>>8540809
Alright, I see what you mean about water.

So we are obviously more intrepid than the houses. Maybe we should explore the forest and see if the wood proves more agreeable than the meat? Despite the fact that it also requires water to survive.

>>8540873
After this my next char is so going to be a golem who has a serious hatred for any and all sculptors, stonemasons, and 'artists'.

>>8540898
I could see how a Stone creature could see it as butchery, but on the other hand, he may believe that a change in physical property (shape, volume) does not sully the perfection of the stone, and is therefor inconsequential.

>>8540935
Might depend on the stone that is being 'butchered' too.
Normal rocks might be more like animals to a crystal being whereas a gemcutters workshop might give us nightmares forever.

>>8540887

Fair enough. Bending them to our will seems far too like the acts of the meat-beings. The offer still stands, if they grow tired of a sedentary life.

>>8540892

That brings up a question: can we communicate with the trees? If so, I'm curious as to their opinion of the meat-beings. Perhaps we might find compatriots amongst others wronged by them.

>>8540953
Hmm, that is interesting. Do Golems value "rock life" in the same fashion as humans do? Would a rock be considered less valuable than a gem? The Golem seems to value the calcium skeletons well enough.

The shaping of stone doesn't offend you all that much, as all stone was once hewn from the earth. It is by gradual reshaping and separating that stone can find purpose in life. And while you think all stone would prefer to have a form of its own choosing, you can't really blame the meat-folk for wanting to rely on the solidity of stone.

>>8540954
>>8540887
perhaps we could leave a shard of ourself with them, in case they grow weary and we're not around?
Although I suppose as long as we stay on the bedrock we could communicate over vast distances...

>>8540954
Trees and plants tend to be even more waterey than animals.

Also, tree roots grow THROUGH stone like a microscopic wedge. they use stone to anchor themselves but only after cutting into it as DEEPLY as possible.

>>8540935
true, it would be little different from us piecing off ourselves and combining with other stone. but the meatmen's ways are so wasteful. they abandon the shaved stone after their forms have been achieved. we must teach them the value of stone somehow...

>>8540995
I think they value stone quite highly, they use it as tools, they live in it, they even use it to adorn themselves. With such respect for stone, you would think that they wouldn't be so averse to *becoming* stone, eh?

Geez, if only :P

>>8540954

You find a local tree, a strong and mighty oak, and decide to try speaking with him. While his manner seems polite enough, as is befitting such a solid creature, he seems disturbingly interested in pulling away your minerals through his roots.

You decide you'd better not speak with trees anymore.

>>8540993
They wish to use the solidity of stone to anchor themselves from the Wind and the Water, this is understandable

Realize I'm a fucking Crystal and then fuck some people's minds up with my telepathic powers!!

>>8541030
Trees be weird, man O.o Must be all that water corrupting their solidarity.

So trees are scary, houses are content, meat-men have run away. Perhaps we should ask the golblems if they have any interesting propositions?

>>8541030

Eep. Creepy. Ah well, patience in all things.

To the mines! More companions = better, right?

>>8540887
>>8540885
Reminds me, I did make this 3.5 template that used the Stronghold Builders Guide rules to allow a house/throne room golem. A castle golem ad epic levels. even gained more stronghold spaces with each set of increased HD it had.

>>8541083
Castle Golem? Well, if we ever run into an epic-level mage, I know what we're gonna do.

I wonder if a mage would make a magic golem

>>8541029
hmm, it seems their relation with the stone is akin to slavery. could they really think themselves above the stone? maybe the inner stone itself was just another tool to them, one to support their squishy flesh. maybe...maybe they ARE the flesh! our liberation could be damning them to life without the stone!

>>8541127
this is worth checking out. We must find a mage!

>>8541048

The golblems know little of life outside of these areas, but the stone-men speak of great and glorious buildings of stone that make these houses look like pebbles by comparison. Nothing compared to the great mountains our kind have made, but impressive nonetheless.

You would disbelieve them, but you know that no being of stone would lie to a brother. Such wonders these meat-men have made with their frail squishy forms!

>>8541053

Your ore-brothers return from the mines, bringing with them three more ore golems, though these are smaller - closer to the height of the meat-men than your towering forms. They say that the rest of the mine was opposed to the idea of moving about all unrooted.

>>8541128
I have never even considered that O.o Is it just of us to do that to the meat??? I mean, it is certainly preposterous that anything could be superior to Stone. But if the meat creatures are indeed the meat itself, than it is quite cruel of us to deprive it of the Stone. What should we do???

>>8541134
do our stone brothers know of where these glorious meatmen lands are? perhaps we should go there and converse with the stone there

>>8539304

Absorb surrounding minerals, realign their molecules into regular patterns.

>>8539456

hahaha I knew kimmo would lose his shit over this attack

stay strong brothers

>>8541128

The idea holds merit, surely, but you've learned from your adventures today that separating the stone from the meat always kills the meat. Which makes sense - how can something have life without stone?

These great buildings are worth considering, we should investigate

>>8541167

We should pose that question to the stone-men and golblems. They should have the best perspective, as they have experienced both life as meat-beings and the purity of stone.

>>8541134
So are we off the the land of Oz to commune with the meat created mountains?

>>8541128
oh god! what have we done?! maybe there is some way of improving the stone without hurting the meat that use it to survive.
They may not share the perfection of stone and they do share much with the Great Devourer, but surely they should be given shelter with the Rock if they seek it?
we should spend some time with the dwellings, they have had most experience with the meatlings in their normal conditions...

>>8541187
Perhaps we should try joining our essence with the stone of living meat. For natural science you see.

But that still begs the question of Justice. Is it just to separate the meat from the Stone? Especially if the stone was content to support the meat.

We should definitely ask the golblems.

>>8541207

This is an interesting line of thought. Are there other meat-creatures in the area, perhaps unrelated to men, with which to investigate this idea?

Eat rocks. Find hot crystal wimmin. Start colony on moon.

>>8541187
((we know of death?)) when we are sundered we merely wait to join a larger form. perhaps the meat works the same. but it doesn't explain why they do not speak...perhaps they speak in ways we cannot, much like they couldn't understand our vibrations.

I think these Golems would shit brix (literally) in today's world. We have SYNTHETIC FIBERS. They would be most impressed at our ability to create new kinds of stone.

>>8541254
Hmm, that is perplexing. Meat creatures are full of mysteries.

Your new friends gathered and repairs complete, you ask the stone-men to lead you to the nearest of these great and mighty works of stone. They tell you that while they have never been there themselves, they know the way, and that it lies many weeks of travel away for a meat-man. Fortunately, bereft of meat, you will be able to move without rest towards your destination.

>>8541220

You find it hard to speak to the inner stones without first binding to them, and such a binding invariably forces your own persona upon them. Unlike the houses, which have awakened to a degree, the inner stone of the meat-folk seems to be completely silent until forcefully awakened.

The only conclusion you can draw from this - as absurd as it seems - is that the meat-folk don't actually think with their stone.

>>8541254

We've been in this town for at least a generation, and have seen the meat-folk die from all sorts of things. Even beings of stone may die if their structure is sufficiently destroyed, such as by being ground into fine sand or by being melted into a much less solid state.

Perhaps these meat creatures should be allowed to continue being meaty. As we learned their way of speaking we say that the meat creatures eventually stop functioning. We could use their stone then as they seem to just bury it anyway.

>>8541289
>meat-folk don't actually think with their stone
They think with their meat?
Impossible.
They have all that stone and...
With meat?

>>8541289
>The only conclusion you can draw from this - as absurd as it seems - is that the meat-folk don't actually think with their stone.

I think I'm experiencing the feeling known as sickness. Up is down, igneous is sedimentary, water is good...

>We could use their stone then as they seem to just bury it anyway.

Brilliant! Patience in all things. The meat-beings are left to their devices, and when they cease, their stone rejoins our brotherhood.

Let's seek out their inanimate meat repository, and disinter the discarded stone.

DAMMIT /TG/ WHY ARE ALL THE GOOD THREADS SO LATE AT NIGHT??? lol I gotta go to bed :( I'll see what happens next.

>>8541327
No stone brother. Meat could never support thought.

Only one conclusion to draw: the Water commands the meat things.

It suffuces them, powers their lifeforce, and serves them functionally without the mutilation inflicted on the meat things stone tools.

The meat things must be Water's minions.

>>8541338
>Let's seek out their inanimate meat repository, and disinter the discarded stone.
This.

>>8541292
Yes, who are we to interfere with their existence, especially when it doesn't interfere with our's?

>>8541349

((Late-night /tg/: the island of win in the sea of Endless Summer.))

>>8541289
these meatmen tend to die when they lose much of the red water inside of them. could it be they think with their water? their meat seems to be immune to the effects of water on our forms, perhaps the meat may be a vessel to trap their water, so it does not disperse and die.

>>8541358
That could account for the depravity of the trees as well...The nature of meat becomes more and more disturbing...I do feel ready to draw a conclusion yet, however, brother.

>>8541358
Ah, the water. that makes much more sense. It explians why their actions are abhorant and chaotic.

I might just be really high, but this is one of the coolest ideas I've ever heard.

>>8541292

An excellent suggestion - if nothing else this should prevent further damage to the more frail golblems and stone-men.

You feel about for the shape of the inner stone, and find some buried in the land nearby. Unlike the freshly liberated stones, these have some rudimentary awareness - likely from having been buried for so long (what clever thinking on the part of the meat-men). Most of them are content to rest, as they feel is their purpose, but you do manage to convince one set of stone to join your cause.

His stones are buried deepest of all, but by asking the earth politely, his form floats to the surface of the dirt.

Your binding on this one is less influential than the others - while his bones are now fused by your crystal, his persona remains intact. As is proper and just.

(And we'll probably be stopping here)

To recap, our current circle of friends consists of:
13 golblems
7 new stone-men
1 elder stone-man
2 large ore golems, iron-plated
3 smaller ore golems

We'll continue this later, in the meantime, how the hell do we go about archiving this?

but... would truly Water use stone to give stability, when stability is the antithesis of Water?
Perhaps the Meat is using the Water just as it is using the Stone?

>>8541420
already achived OP.
Some much fucking awesome, had to save it
Called Crystal Quest I think

>>8541439
my bad, Golem Quest

>>8541439

Thanks stone-bro. I'll probably pick this up again tomorrow.

>>8541439
I just hit the "save page as" is there another way?

I called it Crystal Method

Alright! Thanks for my daily dose of epic, /tg/ :) I really look forward to picking this up again tomorrow.

OP, could you call the next thread "Golem Quest," and use another crystal related picture?

>>8541451

I look forward to it, OP

>>8541420
very intrigued in what our elder stone-man friend has to say. hopefully i wont miss the new thread tomorrow.

So what philosophies have we actually set up?

Stone/Crystal is the purest form of life. stable, patient and beautiful

Water is it's antithesis, shifting and chaotic

Meatmen seem to be a fusion of the two, confirmed they do not think with stone, uncertain if they think with water.

Trees are weird rapists/psychotics, possibly due to their water cores

anything else?

>>8541597

((In the absence of outside influence, stone seems to take on the personality of the task it is set to. Houses enjoy providing shelter, bones want to remain buried, the mountain wants to be cohesive and stay put, etc.))

Good gents of /tg/, worry not. As it is with /jp/, every thread of yours is being archived.

The mountains have an agenda man. All that shifting and reforming...plate tectonics, volcanism or otherwise. they're planning something...

>>8541786
maybe we should ask one about it some day

What the fuck? I smoke a little weed and come to /tg/ and this is going on

>>8539304
Talk smack about other minerals.

not a whole lot, im a fucking crystal
