Fifth Test: l'appel du vide, French for 'the call of the void'

[poisondango]

So I'm sitting here, wondering. What happens if something falls off?

The islands, I mean. Like a cup. Or a journal, or a person.

You know, just wondering. No reason.

It is a loop until you hit something and die, or dehydrate and die, or your heart gives out and you die. It is not good for a person to 'fall' off of an island. But you can try it with a cup if you would like! It loops. Do not stand close to above where you dropped it, because you might get hit on the head. And then fall off.

[poisondango]

Huh. A loop.

Well would you look at that.

I wonder if this could be useful? Lesse...

[spandexisyouth]

Just do not fall off, please.

[poisondango]

I dunno, might be fun.

You don't die. People land on things and pick themselves up all the time.

You also don't die of thirst or anything, because I come pick you up. Or a dragon does. But sometimes it takes a while.

[poisondango]

Yeah but if you were to fall in something not-a-straight line ?

[One second, she's trying something else now]

[azhdarchidae]

Same thing.

[poisondango]

Maybe, maybe not.

[coughcoughshank]

You know, I'd never really thought about that...

[poisondango]

Apparently things loop. I wonder if it's possible to move things forward while at the same time falling?

[coughcoughshank]

Hmm. I guess we can try throwing things off to see?

[poisondango]

I chucked a few rocks off. But rocks can't control their own freefall.
