Stand up and see if you can figure out where you are.

So, is 6 your name? Is that what you're saying?

I'm going to hope that's what you're saying. That 6 is (probably) your name, that you're not sure where a weapon or clothes are (but you seem to know what they are), and everything else we said was confusing.

So, how about this: Where are you? Can we get a good look at your surroundings?

So where are you at, exactly?

>> Message 1

I have seen this before. I have seen myself walking to this console. I have seen myself typing this message. I have seen myself die from making a mistake. I know what the mistake is. I know it will kill me. But I have fought this all for so long, and yet it all still happens.

I don't know if these are the first two of their kind. I don't know if they are the last two. They are simply the only two, and it is by my hand I end one or both of them. That is the only uncertainty I have left. I'll be dead before I ever find out.

Do they deserve it? I doubt they deserve to die any more than anything else here has. But in a way, death is a kindness for them now. We're too far fallen now. The abyss has us. Supplies will likely run out soon, of food, of water, of air.

Will anyone ever read this? If all is well, no-one will be around to read this. If anyone is reading this, I am very, very sorry for you.

A is dead. I will never know what happens to B. I hear the doors hiss. I saw myself ending this note with this exact sentence before I ever began writing it, and I am scared, but not surprised.

"A thing! A thing from a tube in the place with the tubes! I didn't do any bad things I'm good don't think I am bad! Act late shut round cold! Merge seas! I'm hungry. Do you know where food is? I'm not finding where food is. Are you food? You are probably not food I am thinking. Is the tube food? Did you find food in a tube is that why you were in the tube with all the wires and the beeping? Like this! Beep! Beep! Beep! Was it a beeping of food being there?"

Welp.

We don't know where food is, do we.

And this thing seems to have zoned in and out of logical thought midway through talking to you.

I guess ask it what its name is, and tell it yours? And say you don't know where food is, unless you actually do know where food is.

I think it wants food.
>>
No. 251586 ID: fd6d7e

It was the beeping of sleeping. Unless you can eat wires there isn't any food. But maybe through the other doors?

Can you swim where you are? If you're underwater then the viscous friction of the fluid should let you easily overcome gravity. If you're in air you might want to think twice before opening any thick metal doors here at the bottom of the abyss.

Tell it that you're not food. Offer to take it with you so that you may find food. Then let's go in the other door.
