Welp, conjecture abounds, but I am officially very, very confused. But hey, what kind of Resistance would it really be if it's not served by paddling the pink canoe every once in a while? It's a stroke of genius, you might say

Well, hopefully I'm answering more questions then I'm raising here. As to the context here, I kinda didn't want to come out and say it cause of but was hoped it came across. Rather like camerawork that showed only the reaction to a thing instead of the thing itself.

Whaaat?? There's nothing gross or inappropriate about some mad scientist jilling off; something as basic to biological maintenance as pooping. It just seems to be set up such that it's contributing somehow to fighting CelestAI. Or is the implication that she's looking at truly vile porn, of the snuff or kiddie variety, and that's some kind of hamartia or other vulnerability?

What I'm more concerned about is the ice lily that doubles every 24 hours... Since childhood I've had way too many gray goo dreams to trust something like that in even the most non-lucid state...

You're right. that probably should be in the passive, "imperitur" instead? I'm so out of practice, I used to be fluent.

Considering darknet, that's my guess for the porn. No idea why ANY of them would be the least bit necessary.
Illegality narrows it down a bit. Hardly possible implies esoteric. Happy/orgasmic face in conjunction with the others confirms sexual, and likely a situation that normally merits other emotions.
Could be pedo, snuff, or best, most likely, but other than destructive uploading and horse sex, I can't really think of anything else. It's certainly not obvious.

I think things are all metaphors here, but even then, no idea.

Mmm... no. More questions, not really any more answers. Have to say, unless these make a whole lot more sense in context, they seem a bit overly-duplicated. The pacing has really slowed, and unless it picks up soon, I fear it'll become a detractor.

Thank you so much!

I hope you know where this story is going and ending. It's been a while since the last update, and I'm pretty confused. Oh and what made it doubly confusing is the switching of first person to third person constantly. First in the beginning we don't even know the character's gender which made me confused if it was the same character when in a different chapter you say the gender.

I'm a bit stuck on the chapter after next, but I have a few chapters after that done already. The entire story will be following a single person, but the switch in perspective will occur as story driven. I have the whole story in my head, it's the typing- and especially the editing and filling in the details- that's slowing me down.

No. The past half dozen chapters have been...well, they've seemed pointless and unproductive. I gather that this is the original protagonist from the earlier chapters who apparently was female all along, she's suffering from memory loss, none of this is happening inside Equestria Online at all, and all the gang members who were hanging out before have disappeared for no obvious reason much time has progressed with nothing interesting happening. And for some reason the dreams have stopped being part of the narrative and she's having a consistent, if incomplete experience. Was she infected with nano probed way, way back when she first opened the first ponypad, and now they've been removed, along with significant portions of her brain? Is she in a simulated world being run by Cheques? That would explain her claiming that the scenery didnt' look real, and the demon (who I assumed is Cheques) asking her about it. But it's contradicted be his apparent need to hook her up to the machine to read her mind.

I don't know. My best guess is that rather than have Carlos come up on a 2d screen for her to talk to, she "went in" to talk to Carlos, and was damaged in the process, and Cheques is trying to fix it. But that contradicts some fo the information we have. I'm not seeing any single interpretation that accommodates the information we have.

The past half dozen of so chapters have seemed mostly like a nonsensical dream sequence. the kind that you quickly skim through and hope the story goes back to what it was about.

Reading this years later... it makes a lot more sense, especially in the light of what(little) we remember.
