She tilted her head. “What sharpshooter? How’d you become this?”

“WHY NOT??”

-

“W- wait, flips?”

-

Beosta chuckled. “Don’t worry. It’s just one glass.”

“The sharpshooter, ‘Dragoneye Dint,’ took a walk in the wilderness, saved his people, and then they thanked him by killing him. Coincidentally, his time in the wilderness allowed me to inhabit his body. Had they waited just a bit longer to kill him (and not burnt his body), I might be an exact copy.”

Just now, Hawks said:

Asher laughed "pyk this bis gonna be fun!"

Pyk laughed hesitantly. “If… if you say so.”

<Query?> the threads asked.

"My goodness!" exclaimed Bacon. "What has been happening while I've been gone?"

<status?> 

“Many things. I’ll catch you up later, perhaps.” He accepted an invitation, still wearing his armor, though he paused to modify it a bit, adding glowing purple lines and stylish blocks of black, white, and grey.

Symbol grinned from the balcony above the huge double doors of her palace. 

Four thousand pages, and still the legacy continued. She’d see it continue far beyond this, she hoped. Five thousand, ten thousand, forty thousand. 

But for now, we celebrate. 

Every character in the Thread received an invitation floating directly over their heads. She used the template Sequence had created earlier, with her own note at the end. 

Greetings, beloved inhabitants of The Longest Thread! On behalf of this millennium's host, Symbol, I would like to formally invite you to a celebration for our Thread's 4,000th page! Can you believe it? 4,000 pages already! It feels just yesterday we were celebrating 3,000! There will be festivities, refreshments, and everything of the sort located at Symbol's castle! 

With love and appreciation,

Narrator and co-host, Sequence

P.S. Folding the invitation twice will teleport you to the venue seamlessly! (But the feature will be inactive until the party begins)

P.S.II. Violence is not allowed. Also, don’t destroy anything, and don’t commit arson. -Symb. 

She grinned down at her newly refurbished castle and her lush, beautiful courtyard. A small corner of the Thread, yes, but still hers. 

“A place worth protecting,” she said aloud, then turned to go greet her guests. 
 

Rebus was already wandering around the castle, though for some reason he changed the highlights on his clothes to green rather than orange. 
The Render accepted an invitation, glad to finally get out of that frustratingly endless grassland. 
Sagerian also accepted an invitation, as did Jack and Everet. 
Several more people also accepted the invitation, though they would remain anonymous for the time being, since Heir hadn’t decided which ones they should be.

Yeah it can lie in the center. Only the Fragment of Corruption is in Chaotic Darkness. In intent, not power. Only those holding the Fragment want to destroy/corrupt everything.

Uh huh. There will certainly be no problems with that floating around, will there… I’m just imagining what would happen if some of the really OP characters ended up with it.

She nodded excitedly.

hehehehehehehe I love messing with people

He raised an eyebrow.

Yeah, well, last time you got drunk off of less.

He literally can't talk lol

Shoe, I mean

Shoe gave him a weird look.

After in a state of 'conversing' with the stones for 5 minutes, Taeidin puts them away. 

"Ohh it was that stuff you were drinking. That looks good with mushrooms." 

He walks off to go get some.

“Meat, fruit, salad…” she frowned at the burrito. “This is just mush. No offense.”

“Yeah, I have a little.”

“That’ll be near impossible to remember,” Symbol pointed out. “Perhaps something a bit shorter.”

“Nothing happened.”

“Fine.” She stepped away from the two ites, regarding them curiously. “I have a feeling there’s somewhere I ought to be that I am not. Excuse me while I go find it.” 

She poofed into slivers of crystal that fell to the ground. 

4000 pages

Cricket shifted slightly. "Alright. Just making sure."

She snorted and waved her hand dismissively. “Noooooooooo.”

Symbol poofed into existence behind him, little flakes of crystal falling in her wake. “Finally, your Author’s back. Happy 4000 pages.”

Symbol was there and enthusiastically greeted everyone.

Meat the Minstrel appeared directly in his path, bursting into room-temperature, colorful flames and hence avoiding being knocked over. “Ah! Did I drop some moon vowels?”

WAIT WAIT WAIT

THE RENDER?

*smoldering not really anger*

The Render has existed since page 2980ish, actually. 
The Render, a humanoid mass of floating objects, wandered off to go find some plates to eat so it could get a little sharper. It slowly left behind a trail of dirt, and each time it moved there was the sound of grinding rocks. 

1 minute ago, Bird Furious said:

Symbol was there and enthusiastically greeted everyone. 

“Hello, Symbol.” Rebus grinned. “Happy 4000 pages - I was getting a little worried myself.” 

Most of the people enthusiastically greeted her back. Sagerian barely noticed - he was too busy writing down all of the strange sights.

"thats nice. So a story teller?"

Bacon hears an annoyed sigh from seemingly nowhere. 

"That is part of the job description, yes- Did you hear that?"

1 hour ago, Bird Furious said:

“That’s okay.” 

Lady Bug smiled. She gave herself a matching dress and an elegant updo, then took his hand. 

 

"So," asked Bacon, leading her into a tango in time with the music, "What's new in the world? I have been... absent for some time, it would seem."

Beosta snatched the glass of cherry cola and guzzled it, then sighed happily. 

“Thank you.” She hiccuped. 

"Hey!" said Bacon. "My drink!"

1 hour ago, epl2 said:

Seeing Bacon approach, Taeidin turns to him. 

"Do you know what a cherry cola is?"

"No, I've never had the good fortune to try it." Bacon shot a pointed look at Beosta. "I presume it is cherry-flavored carbonated liquid, unless the naming conventions here are much different than the ones I'm used to."

1 hour ago, CoderDrag0n8 said:

Wait... What happened? Xino is back? THE Xino is BACK? What happened? When did he return?

Oh, also,

Muin, temporarily gaining thread awareness, folds the invitation

Just now.

21 minutes ago, Through The Living Glass said:

YUP :D:D

YOU CAN'T PROMISE THAT!

-

She smiled.

Yeah! I think Shoe had to show Beosta how to dance at the last party . . . she mused.

She grinned.

Now we do FLIPS.

-

NO. DO NOT GET ME OFF HER, Shoe replied.

Bacon! Hi! We've been just . . . adventuring, I suppose. What have you been up to? he asked, trying not to laugh at the peacock costume.

Shoe didn't answer.

WHAT?! NO! BACON!!

He sighed and set Beosta down.

Wonderful.

"Uh," said Bacon, looking suddenly embarrassed. "Sleeping, actually."

Afterimage hears him, but ignores him. The… the memory was painful for both of them.

She thinks “hear wha- oh i think I know what you mean. If you have met me before do you know who Cade is? He was originally in my head i think. But now he’s separated.”

behind bacon a dude appears, black hair and dark eyes and street clothing. “Hey weird guy i am now sepreate so i can properly fight you.”

@SpiritOfWrath Asher holds his arm. “What’s that pyk?”

She laughed out loud.

I-I know. I was just messing with you . . .

She laughed harder and pulled him into a hug.

He stared at her flatly.

Fell O lunatic, in case you were wondering. 
The Render stopped, pivoting its “face” towards him. It was, at the moment, best described as a pile of dirt and rocks in the shape of a large, crude humanoid. “I cannot do this without a replacement. Metal would be best, but your bones will suffice.” 

[Immortal Platypus]

Symbol welcomed him with open arms. “Welcome to the party! Happy 4000 pages!”

He stood in a courtyard in the shadow of a grand castle. The sun was beginning to set. 

All her Author remembered was that it was strange that Hacob wasn’t there. 

Symbol watched with interest. 

Platypus had said he'd gone missing. His Author had made a post about him a while ago...
