You can walk, too.
"Okay, so, continue?"
>"Why did you make me?"
"Because I needed a friend.
God, that sounds way worse out loud."
He mutters something under his breath, but not loudly enough for you to hear.
>"What am I?"
"You're a beast. Like me. Artificial people, to put it simply."
>"What's a core?"
"Prohibitively expensive is what a core is..." He mutters.
"No, but seriously, a core is basically a big, condensed ball of a whole bunch of stuff called force. You could think of it as a big battery.
As for force, it's this like, pseudo-liquid with a bunch of weird properties; it's the same stuff as all of that blue stuff downstairs, A.K.A your blood. Humans can apparently use it to do a whole bunch of stuff, but beasts like us need cores to do even the most basic stuff with it, since beasts are already basically living, talking cores."
"Oh, something I should have said earlier, now that I think about it. Your Core Word, whatever you chose for that, is really important. Aside from literally being the concept your soul is built on, it gives you superpowers! Ooooh. Really, they're usually kinda boring, but sometimes they're cool. I'm not gonna ask you what your Core Word is, but keep it in mind and try to figure out what you can do."
>"What's with this...tear in reality? It goes wherever I look."
"Oh, haha, yep, Burdens will do that to you. Yes, it's annoying as fuck. Try not to let bad things happen to you."
"Uh, if you can avoid it," he adds quickly.
>"Where are we?"
"Brightside! Also known as 'At least we're not Badside!' Seriously, it sucks here. I need to move."
>"Any chance I could get some clothes?"
"See, I'd say 'Sure!' but I'm broke. Past broke, actually."
>"Can you turn your head 45 degrees to the right?"
"Um. Sure?"
