This you were extremely curious about, however you stared wide eyed in happiness as you reach for the two disks in your mailbox and-

Your modus returns back into a-

Wait no

They went to different cards! DDDDDD:

Card 1, Orange Soda

Urghhhhh Like HELL if you're trying to get your soda now!

[ShadesofGrey18]

SG: I dunno, Aaron. Just a hunch... that kinda chill you get at the back of your neck...
SG: Wait, what about Nora?
SG: Anyway... I'm gonna head to the Campus Post Office in a bit; I just decided to stop for a bit...

Hm? What is this? ...Well, speak of the devil...

ND: fdhuyidghfvdsigvfds!!!!!!
ND: LUCKY.
ND: man at this rate i'll be last one out of our group to play!

Sigh... this sucks. If only you had connections, some pal that could get you a copy of the game... wishful thinking at best!

I mean, there's no one with SHADY CONNECTIONS out there... right?

ND: huh?
ND: awwwww tsi!!
ND: why'd you have to go and do that.
ND: better hope you can solve your modus' cup riddle stupidity!
ND: you gotta switch moduses, man.

II: I knowwwwww
II: Great now I have to hope I get that stupid soda first
II: The last thing I need is for the beta cd to be covered in orange flavored soda :c
II: Stupid Clearance sales DX
II: I hope someone has an extra modus or something
II: Anyways I should probably head back inside
II: I dont want to risk losing my copies to the tradewind ;3;
II: But besides that
II: Are you sure that you'll be the last one? It's like getting so close to christmas!
II: If your family is like most others here, you could probably score :3
II: After all, presents litter the ground all the time!

Pulling up your positive attitude you then abscond back into your house away from the WHITE PAVED DRIVEWAY. Locking the doors as usual.

>TSIFAN: Examine Upstairs Living Room

The upstair living room is LITTERED WITH PRESENTS all under a SHORT CHRISTMAS TREE. Well then again the tree was pretty fake anyways, but you still remember the years it was so massive you couldn't believe it. Jesus you were a dwarf.

==>

You then hear something. Footsteps.

Fuck

>ABSCOND YOUR ASS DOWN THE STAIRS.

HI BYE GRANNY IM NOT HUNGRY I ATE ALREADY THANKS NO I DO NOT NEED FOOD IM STILL STUFFED YES BREAD COUNTS AS BREAKFAST THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONCERN BYE.

You barely have a BREATH left after absconding into the living room downstair.

you feel vibration.

Whoops you forgot to check your phone

>TSIFAN: Check

[Firebreath Fishslap]

Balls, he hung up on you. Well, did the equivalent of hanging up on you. He has no clue what he's getting into, too. Well, no one does. Including yourself! You haven't been keeping track of any of the reviews (mainly because GAMEBRO is a sack of shit that needs to be thrown onto the nearest fireplace), but you know it's going to be a good game. Even if it's probably going to get you killed.

>Nora: Retrieve smartphone.

Ahh, your trusty SMARTPHONE. Such a wonderful gift. Great for communicating with people too. The chat drains the battery really quickly, though, so you're constantly having to charge it.

>Nora: Proceed down the hall to retrieve your game.

Before leaving, you equip your trusty broomKind modus, in case of cat attack. You are always prepared for rabid kitties trying to cuddle on you during inappropriate instances or when they're trying to bite your ankles and.

What's that noise?

==>

Oh. Hello there kitties.

> [S?] STRIFE

You leap into the household living room fray in order to pacify the rabid wet cats.

You glance at the crudely described battle, direct your browser to the HOMESTUCK BANDCAMP PAGE, and browse for suitable battle music. Oh god, there are so many songs. Which one would be a good fit for this duel? Wait, yes, there's one. That's perfect. You hit play, close your eyes, and become lost in visions of flying feline fur, swinging brooms, and Nora doing that thing where she jumps impossibly high in the air and does a flying side kick at her adversary. Yes, so awesome.

==>

Oh.

Welcome home mother.

No, I wasn't fighting the cats again.

That would be absurd.

You have my game? Excellent. Thank you.

I'm just going to...

Abscond to my room.

Yes.

==>

You abscond to your room. After sitting back down at your desk, you check who's online again. Oh, it's Pieter. When did he get on?

firebreathFishslap began pestering shadesofGrey

FF: So I just had an awesome fucking fight with the cats
FF: (I won of course)
FF: and I got my game too
FF: I'm really ready to start this up any time

[ShadesofGrey18]

SG: Izzat so? XD
SG: Well, I don't have my game yet; I'm on my way to the Campus Post Office to check right now.
SG: ...I'll shoot you a message when I'm back in my dorm room, 'K?

shadesofGrey ceased Pestering firebreathFishslap

Well, that was a nice little distraction. Now then, on to... aw, hell; it's the resident Jerk Jock, and it seems he's looking for someone to mess with. After mocking your Dashtop and failing to get a response out of you... it appears he wishes to be violent. Oh, dear...

===> Pieter: STRIFE!

...Well, that didn't take long; apparently the Jock doesn't like dealing with the danger of a flailing Trombone Mute. Now... where were you?

Ah, yes.

==> Pieter: Go to Campus Post Office.

[Firebreath Fishslap]

Oh, I dunno if you saw my God Tier design but it's up on TSI's deviantART.

[kisashika]

Yes, I did see it and I have it saved for reference. :3 Yours, Nuts, CC's, Tsi's, and Gantz's are all on my God Tier list.

[tsifan]

ooh, wow that's nice! and real pretty looking X3

Oooh God tiers! Those will definately be fun!

[ShadesofGrey18]

Um, even though I have not drawn one... I have a concept for my God Tier outfit, too...

Want me to PM it to you, Kisa?

[B. Marquis]

B: Retrievin' those arms

Well, I could have sworn to think that there will be better grammar than that now, don't you? Be retrievin', really, now?

B: Retrieve arms

You proceed to retrieve your ARMS. These are some nice ARMS, and they might be useful for everyday, well, use.

==>

Ah, there they are, the set of PROSTHETIC ARMS your friend in the military gave to you prior to leaving active duty. He had no use for them, seeing is he has both of his arms, so he gave them to you as a present. In the beginning, you do not know of any use for them, as well, for you have both of your arms, but hey, anything can happen in the world.

B: Captchalogin' those arms, bro.

You let that one slide. Besides, it's time to demonstrate your highly programmatic captchalogin'... I mean captchaloging skills.

==>

You leap over to your LAPTOP, which have been hacked, experimented on, and otherwise hacked to do your every bidding.

Lets get ready to rumble!!!

Starting OS...

==>

Finally, the operating system is running. You load up your captchalogue compiling software of choice and start to coding!!!

[Show Code]
#include <modus.h>
#include <strife.h>
#include <cstdio>

using namespace std;

#include "armprost.h"

int main (int argc char** argv)
{
prosthetic_Arms prost;
if(argv[2] == "--captchalogue")
prost.captchalogue();
else prost.retrieve();
return 0;
}

B: Compilin' dat code!

You... actually start to like these puns. so with the push of the button, you start compiling. The code wasn't so big, so it took a fraction of a second. So all that's left to do is...

B: Run prosthetic.exe --captchalogue

And by running the program with an argument, you have successfully captchalogue your ARMS. That didn't take long, now, did it.

It might have went faster if you use a simpler language, like BASIC, but you like C and C++.

You want to try ~ATH, but that might have some undesirable results.

B: Checkin' your pesterchum!

You be checkin the chums, yo. You see that one of your CHUMS are online.

B: Pester Peter

You wonder why the lack of 'in on that one, then again, you admire the alliteration. You start to pester your CHUM.

PC: B:/echo Peter!
PC: B:/echo Peeeeeeeeter!
PC: B:/echo Peter Peter Pumpkin Eater!
PC: B:/echo Man, pumpkins sound good right now!
PC: B:/echo I can never seem to find a place that sells them
PC: B:/echo I swear I did, but... Nevermind.
PC: B:/echo Dude, did you get your game, yet?
PC: B:/echo I've been so trying to get on this, but I need somebody
PC: B:/echo Somebody I can trust with my life!
PC: B:/echo So I was wondering...
PC: B:/echo ...
PC: B:/echo Do you think Nora will be my right hand on this bad baby of a game?

[ShadesofGrey18]

Pieter: Answer Brandon.

Fortunately, you hadn't re-captchalogued your Dashtop yet. You fire Pesterchum back up.

SG: Brandon, first of all... you forgot the 'i' in my name. Again. P-I-E-T-E-R; cripes, am I gonna have to remind you every time we chat? ...XD I'm just messing with you.
SG: I was just on my way to the Campus Post Office to check if my game came in. Had a run-in with the resident Jock... fortunately, he doesn't like getting clubbed with a Mute very much.
SG: As for Nora? I have no idea if she will be or not. There's a bunch of possible people. Me, personally? I'm hoping Kelsey or Aaron is my partner.
SG: Though, Hell, I don't know; we could wind up as partners for this stage of the game... well, if the guide Kels and I read is correct.
SG: Here, I'm gonna switch over to my iPhone; if I keep getting distractions like this, I'll never get my game. The Campus Post Office is just a little further ahead.

[B. Marquis]

PC: B:/echo Pieter, silly me!
PC: B:/echo Why I forgotten that name?!
PC: B:/echo That's like the easiest name to remember!
PC: B:/echo Pie-ter!
PC: B:/echo Your name has pie in it! And seriously, who doesn't love pie?
PC: B:/echo I wouldn't mind pie right now, either.
PC: B:/echo Some nice pumpkin pie sounds great!
PC: B:/echo Well, that'll be cool if we hit the game together. In fact, that'll be great!
PC: B:/echo We can hit it hard, like bullets on paper, or like a baby's cuteness on women.
PC: B:/echo Are you there yet? I'm anxious for you to get your package!

[ShadesofGrey18]

SG: Well, whatever you need to help you remember. XP
SG: Anyway, yeah, I'm here!

Pieter: Check your mailbox.

You quickly enter your combination in the lock... booyah! You can hear the Final Fantasy victory theme playing in your head as you reach in and pull out your SBURB Client and Server discs. You immediately Captchalogue them... ironically, into the card whose tune is that theme. Huh... weird.

===> Sprint back to your dorm room.

You waste no time in racing back and practically flinging yourself onto your futon. Whistling the Victory Fanfare, your discs appear on your lap.

SG: Never thought I'd be able to run that fast... Yeah! I got them!
SG: We gonna do this thing or what?
SG: You mind playing 'Server' for me?

You reach for your Client disc, ready to rock and roll.

[B. Marquis]

PC: B:/echo Sweet Jesus, you are fast!
PC: B:/echo Like Sonic the Hedgehog fast!
PC: B:/echo The only thing that is faster than you is Tails on Sonic 3!
PC: B:/echo No, seriously, think about it. Sonic is the fastest thing alive, right? and he is accompanied by Tails on Sonic 3.
PC: B:/echo Tails is not the smartest of the two, always dropping in holes and such.
PC: B:/echo However, Sonic leaves him, and he comes back! flying right back to him, and since he is actually closing in on Sonic, his speed must be faster than him!
PC: B:/echo Anyway, I'm set like the word between game and match!
PC: B:/echo After you get your side ready, fist pump, lets do this!
