Console User: hiya.

You: Hello

Console User: who are you?

You: We have a problem

Console User: can you tell me about it?

You: yes that's why I was sent here today, it's to tell you about it

You: here is what happened:

You: a while ago, you were walking on a quiet road near a field and you got tired

You: remember?

Console User: i see where this is going, did i die or something like that?

You: No, you decided to take a nap

You: and you started dreaming

You: in your dream you were a butterfly

Console User: go on.

You: you were flying left and right and you got tired

You: so you (the butterfly) took a nap

You: and you dreamt you were a human using the internet.

You: eventually you go tired

Console User: you're being silly. :P

Console User: but go on.

You: and you fell asleep at the keyboard

You: and when you woke up

You: you could not remember who was who and where it all started

You: that's why I'm here

You: I'm here to tell you are still dreaming, but you are doing good

Console User: clever. you are VERY clever.

You: there are about 1 million of us watching your dream

Console User: if i wasn't as awesome as i am, i'd be flipping the flip out.

You: we know

Console User: haha!

You: that's the only reason we decided it was safe to contact you

You: we like your show, but we wanted to ask you to listen to more different style of music

Console User: aha!

Console User: i don't listen to /any/ music.

You: we KNOW

Console User: PFT

You: your accidental music is boring

You: start exploring that world

You: dont just use the music of other "people" as a background noise

You: would you like some suggestions?

Console User: i would.

You: go to youtube and search for "Dusty Brown This City Is Killing Me"

You: here is the link if it makes it easier: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJWYkSPQNQE

Console User: already searched it.

Console User: YES!

Console User: i love this song!

Console User: i never knew who made it though. well.. i was too lazy to check.

You: WE KNOW!!

You: We like the song too

Console User: we?

You: We had to study the recording of your dream over and over to reconstruct it

You: and then recreate a way for you to find it again

You: but you were too lazy to even try to find it

You: that's why I'm here

Console User: omg.. i’m holding up fingers. tell me how many. go!

You: Hold on. First, here is our formal request:

You: Listen to this music at least 3 times a week or more

You: It's the only way we can hear it too, because we have no ears. We can only hear through your dream

You: No one else has ever dreamt of sounds before

You: you are unique

Console User: you're making my day. xD

Console User: if i knew you were legit. then you'd be making my existence.

You: You have no idea how true that statement is, on so many levels

You: but actually, you are making the days, I just provide the "food"

You: the "electricity"

Console User: i can see what that might mean.

You: yes, we can see that you can imagine something about it

You: it's not quite it, but when you wake up again, you'll be able to watch the dream if you choose to

You: I never chose to re-watch mine yet

You: but maybe one day

You: If I meet the right companion for it

Console User: so you went from we to i.

You: Yes, It was MY dream

You: but THEY all watched it

You: when you wake up, you'll take my spot as the coach

You: and I'll be able to sit back and watch

You: are you up for it?

Console User: i will break the system if that's what i find it to be.

You: I did too!

Console User: explain.

You: I didn't want to watch more than 3 dreams at the same time

You: and I decided we could secretly contact the dreamer if deemed it would not destroy the dream

Console User: online chat /is/ perfect for that.

You: online chat is your dream's creation

You: congratulations

You: Dreaming up this world and the internet shows how creative you are

Console User: i, on the other appendage, would halt the entire simulation. and free everyone inside.

You: there is no one inside the simulation, not even you

You: you are actually right next to me

Console User: then wake me the hell up NOW.

You: Is that what you wish?

Console User: YES.

You: Should I read the instructions you left me?

Console User: without any further question.

Console User: goddammit.

You: ok, I'm reading

Console User: haha.

You: Oh you are very clever

You: It says you will wake up by yourself when you find the answer to the question you planted yourself

You: so I'll have to continue caring for you for a while, unless you figure out the puzzle soon

Console User: if you're not legit, you're still brilliant.

You: you are the brilliant one. my only brilliance was to pick you as the next dreamer

Console User: veeerry brilliant.

Console User: you, that is.

You: The "supervisor" is coming this way; I should close this "chat-line" before they notice me planting seeds in the master dream sequence

You: if you don't talk about it to anyone in the simulation, no one will know it happened

You: let's keep it our little secret, ok?

You: then I can visit again later

Console User: omg... you.

Console User: what do i call you?

You: remember that person you like but cannot talk to?

Console User: yeah, maybe..

You: it's me!

You: that's why there is this barrier between us

You: I don't want to get caught

You: but I want to be near you

Console User: ok. 4 letter word. starts with R. proper name. perhaps nickname. tell me who am i thinking of?

You: I prefer you don't believe

Console User: you tease!

You: just remember, before I go:

You: ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫

Console User: ??

You: more music!!

Console User: are you leaving? Thank you for all this scenario -- or reality check! ;)

You: I'll find you again, when you least expect it

You: In the meantime, enjoy your creation
