The VR DLC pack. It made us feel more alert and energetic. But I guess it's also doing this...? [a beat.] Well, actually, this is a good side-effect too. I think it's what saved Temenos from becoming pavement pizza.
I think I saw that but didn't bother grabbing it myself. [ but he thinks on this... ] Considering we saw him fall and suddenly he was right back where he started, I'd say that's a good theory. But I wonder...

Harley, how do you feel now? Does it seem like the rest of it wore off yet?
It would be nice if the twist was that no one is actually dead and it was all one big simulation in the end. But before ya get your hopes up, this didn't start happening until I used the item on us, so...
No, I know, and that's why I'm wondering if that's an actual possibility. Like raising your alertness made it easier to break the simulation and point out something's weird, but once the item wears off we're back to square one.
Man... It'd be cool if that was true and I could see through the, uh, fourth wall. But instead I just get to blip out of existence for a couple of seconds.
Hm...guess that would be a little too convenient. It was worth a thought. [ ... ] Either way, I'm grateful you thought of it or we'd have even bigger problems.
Yeah. The fact that people keep buying them every week and we don't know who they go to hasn't been helpful either. For all we know people are using them and we don't know it because they aren't speaking up. But after seeing today maybe they will.
Might have to see what the new stuff next week is. It's worth a shot just to see if the effects are a new thing going forward or if it was just this once.

Oh, yeah. It's probably because I used one of the items from that Scrap guy's shop on me and Temenos before we got to the sim room.

Ah. Yeah, that'd do it. Which one? [ and also, why? ]

I'm still rearing to go, if that's what you mean. But that could be just me.

I've gotten my hands on all of 'em except for the pillow and the durian paste. None of them had a side-effect like this before.
