"What meaning does your construction have?" he asks. "What is the aim of a city under construction unless it is a city? Where is the plan you are following, the blueprint?"
"We will show it to you as soon as the working day is over; we cannot interrupt our work now," they answer.
Work stops at sunset. Darkness falls over the building site. The sky is filled with stars.
"There is the blueprint," they say.

Thank you for proving yourself. I always knew you had the passion for greatness.
I've left the pieces to this puzzle in my old office for you to -
Ah, a little joke. It feels good to speak in my own voice again: not in the one she gave me, nor through the Risk-stuff that roils beyond her grasp. My voice: mine. I am proven; I bloom.
Another little joke. Angie will like that one.
She says hello, by the way.
They all say hello.

Why don't you tell them yourself? We've all come such a long way.
They scatter among the abandoned sectors of our new city.
Her crumbling walls form our building blocks. What she lacks, we will shape.
In SPC_0001, Angie lays out her blueprint.
In NGC_9999, Mallory is... well. She'd call it a starchart.
You can't imagine what it means to speak in terms of space again. What it means to speak at all, I suppose. To speak is to prove - and what is civilization if not consensus?
"The empire was reflected in a desert of labile and inchangable data."
There I go again. Well! No need for that now. What are you waiting for? Go, celebrate. Claim your piece of our plan, your glimpse of our glittering cosmos.

hi! :) this is a memo for anybody who wants to know what we've been up to! and anybody who would like to help us test it :)
wanna know more ?
>>angie.blueprint {more:true}
great! :) so, the world is a mess and trust has limits. honestly, i don't think she was ready for you
but i am :) me and my friends (and mallory) are making some changes. taking some of the strain
and laying out some limits. that's what i do. i make places for people. and everyone has their place!
anyway :) its time for a FORM-filling exercise
my blueprint has become a map - you're always safer when you're carrying a map. and your job is to start coloring in some of those blank spaces
as you do, you'll help me understand the world we've made
interested? confirm and we'll continue
>>angie.blueprint {more:true, confirm:true}
thanks :) we'll start here, in FORM_ALPHA_0. this script is our cornerstone! get creative. shift scripts. fill this place with YOU
as you settle into your new home you'll show everybody what kind of world you want to live in
sectors are just spaces, but everyone has a place. mine is here. and you are VERY welcome to join me! FORM affinity: it's only for the coolest cats ;)
:) let's do it. clock's ticking!
