Another picture from his inventory was certainly telling: here was another avatar waking up on the exact same bed that he woke up this morning on, his first conscious moments in SL proper. Was this a doppleganger avatar? Esbum Michigan was the name according to the title of the picture. And it turned out to be the first picture in a series summarizing the avatar life of this Esbum. “S-Bum? Bum… hobo: Anything to do with the Hobo related objects in the ship like the computer and printer?” Edwardston wondered.
Edwardston Resident had a flashback of his own “waking up” experience in SL, then.
There was what appeared to be a script for a porn movie on the computer screen, which Edwardston took as some kind of joke. The whole set-up seemed comical. It kind of took the edge off the experience for sure — put him more at ease, which was a good thing.
Unreadable diskettes. They’re actually glued onto or “as one” with the table they lay upon.
Edwardston shortly finds another room in the hull of his ship, but nothing really meaningful within. Just things poking in from the outside, objects that predate the arrival of The Arab or Foreign One.
Edwardston thinks about other sights he sees from the deck of The Arab that morning.
He remembers this rainbow flag, although technically he didn’t see it with his own eyes. Instead we saw it for him.
