VISI

Enter the depths of his mind

|
V

A tall humanoid creature of an unknown species. His head is a large box television with a static screen and 2 black ovals that serve as eyes. He wears a black and white suit and tie, along with a pair of glasses that seem to be for display only. His skin is a dark grey, most likely due to some evolutionary need to blend into the darkness.Before the dissection, Visi wore a dark green suit with a black and green tie. But, his suit burned after he dug into the earth's asthenosphere.

Organs

The creatures organ systems are complex, with the diagram above only containing very few of the various mechanical and organic parts that seem to keep him functioning. The species are hermaphrodites, having both male and female genitalia. It's unknown how the offspring is born, as they do not seem to have a pregnancy. Their skin is thick and smooth, and their bones are 3 times as strong as a human's. They have large, sharp claws, no doubt optimized for digging efficiently.

Generators

Throughout their bodies are these strange metallic masses that seem to make no logical sense by human standard. They both create energy and sense it, meaning that they can detect another one of their kind from a mile away. These generators ensure the creature boundless energy, allowing them to dig for longer amounts of time.

Lifespan

The species lifespan seems to be indefinite, as they do not require food or water to survive. The only way for them to die is for the screen to be completely smashed. But, they can still survive with various cracks or holes, as long as the screen isn't entirely destroyed.

ants.

Being down here for so long has made me realize a lot. Recently, I've begun to think a lot about ants and their lives. They have a purpose. A common goal that takes them to where they know they need to go. A constant drive to live because they know that they are making a difference. They know that each and every one of them is contributing to something that will not only benefit themselves but also their future generations. And that, to me, is beautiful. I want to be like them. Surrounded by people just like me. Sure, we may be alike in the way that we both live in tunnels. But, there is one main difference that separates us. They do not live and breathe in isolation. They have someone to talk to wherever they look. They have thousands of friends and family members. I wish to be them. I wish to be loved. One day. One day I someone will care for me as a Queen ant cares for her workers.

i'm sorry, Rob.

I didn't mean to. I swear I didn't mean to. I thought you'd stay alive. I promise I meant no harm. I just wanted to see what you looked like inside. why did this have to happen? I didn't know it was possible for someone to never wake up like you did. you didn't know me, but I saw you as a friend. the first person I had gotten familiar with. the first human I had ever seen. and now you're gone gone. i'm sorry, Rob. I'm so so sorry. I promise that I never planned on hurting you. I can hear them coming. I can hear the humans looking for you. i'm leaving this with your body. hopefully they'll find this. i'm sorry for robbing you of your life. you mattered so much more to me than I had realized. please wake up. please tell them that this was an accident. tell them that we're friends. you can do that, right? right?

violet :]

It's been a while since I've left the tunnels since the.. rock incident. But, I need to do my job or I'll be kicked out. I was quickly cleaning up an empty room when an odd short girl came up to talk to me. She had long purple hair and strangely pale skin. It was a bit scary how kind she was. She even agreed to see the tunnels. I think I might actually have a friend. My first since.. Rob..I was spying on her a bit and I've learned a lot about her. Her face makes liquid. A lot. Maybe she has some sort of condition. It'd explain her pale skin. She also seems to have a pair of dots that she is very self-conscious about.I saw her face making liquid again so I thought that it would be a great time to practice emotions. I tried an action called "laughing" because it seemed like the appropriate reaction. She seemed a bit confused to hear laughing from her walls, but I think I did a pretty good job. :]

axel.

So I thought it would be a good idea to try spying on one of Violet's friends. Second biggest mistake of my life. He was.. less than thrilled to find me in his walls. I've never met anyone more violent or unwelcoming. Not even cats are that bad. I thought that someone like Violet would be able to scout out the good people and leave the bad people. But, he ended up being the worst person I've ever met. I just wanted to try to be friends with him, but he absolutely despises me. I think I'm starting to miss home. I don't want to be around people anymore. They have proven to me that I do not belong. Why won't Axel be my friend? I was only spying on him.

lawrence <3

I had been a month or two since my first experience with Axel, and I was ready to start spying again. And that's when I noticed somebody new was in the library. He was short with nice, long, blonde hair. He was wearing a white mask with eyes on it, and he had noticeable horns and a tail. I was spying on him as he read, but I slipped up and he noticed me. I apologized over and over but he didn't seem to care. He even offered for me to join him. We sat together for a bit until he.. fell asleep on me. His mask slipped a bit, so I took a little peek. And he was absolutely stunning. I couldn't help but stare at his absolutely perfect features. I'd expected him to be hiding something horrible, but it was the complete opposite. Eventually I fell asleep on him too. It wasn't my usual place of rest, but I made an exception. And with that, I felt a new emotion.We went to the library together again. And I couldn't be more happy. I don't think he knows that I can't actually read. But for him, I'll pretend. I couldn't help but stare again, my static getting louder as I admired his features. Halfway through the book, I noticed him struggling with something. After a while, he turned to me and said "Stay still for a moment dear." He pulled me closer to him and pressed his lips against my screen. I think I might've short-circuited. I don't know what just happened, but it was certainly new.

feelings.

I've been hit with clarity. One long overdue. My feelings for Lawrence are not normal. I'm not meant to feel this way. My species is meant for pure isolation and darkness. Parents abandon their offspring and each other just seconds after the child is born. I was never supposed to form attachments to anybody. But the thing is, it's not just an attachment. It hasn't been for a long time now. This is a need. A desire. A desperate plea for help. But what I never realized was that my pleas were never meant to be answered. I'm supposed to be left alone as I slowly waste away in my dreaded tunnels. The smell of bodies infests wherever the hell smells are supposed to go. I am unnatural. I am a freak. I shouldn't feel this way for him but I do. And that is unforgivable. So now I think to myself: Would I have been better off back at home? Tunneling for eternity or until a rock crushes me? No. No I wouldn't.
