Is Furrinya Alive?

Good morning, evening, night. Here with you is me, your irreplaceable schizo-theorist Luxishpuksi, and on today’s agenda we have a certain interesting thought that came to me courtesy of 18 hours without sleep!

Let’s start from afar.

As you know (and if you don’t, what are you even doing here? Go read the site, you disgraces), Furrinya was deleted/erased/killed/sent into the void — at least that’s what the official sources say, namely this very site, plus the event that put the current iteration of Farost at the wheel.

But is everything really the way they show it to us? NO!

First, the very first fact is written right on the site — it’s Furrinya’s own page. Near the end we’re told plainly that her fate is unknown, which already gives us reason to doubt her final disappearance.

Second, based on the lore of Farost’s page, we know that every “glitch” is a reflection of a piece of Farost’s soul/personality. It follows that Furrinya, even though she’s a glitch, still remains Farost to some degree, and her complete disappearance or destruction is impossible for a number of reasons. All glitches are held back by Farost — held back, precisely — we know this from Farost’s page and from bits of the streams.

So why are they held back instead of destroyed? I’ve got a couple of options.

The first and most logical: they can’t be destroyed (or it’s undesirable) precisely because they are pieces of Farost’s soul/personality. Besides, if you lean on religion or culture, the soul is indestructible, which means the glitches are just as invulnerable!

Second option: there are just way too many of them. As we know from the lore, most glitches are too weak to do anything, but there can be so many of them that destroying them becomes pointless — like cockroaches, they’ll just keep crawling in. So it’s easier to hold them back than to wipe them out.

And the third option is tied to the first: glitches are immortal because of the cycle of rebirth. They’re pieces of the soul tied to some of Farost’s interests. Destroying a glitch doesn’t destroy Farost’s interest in something, so after one character “dies”, a new one appears on the same theme.

Following that third thought, we can draw a short conclusion: Furrinya didn’t die. She was replaced by Faro-chan because of the Script.

So now we know glitches get reborn. We know Furrinya had power over the teletummy, and the whole point of the Script Faro-chan launched was to replace Furrinya with herself and send Farost far away from some kind of “control panel”.

But in that case, why did the Script work? I’ve got an answer for that too!

The parameter. The teletummy is, in fact, a big computer with an intelligence of its own. Since Furrinya posed no threat to Farost and at certain moments was even his friend, her “glitch” parameter (or something like it) switched to neutral or even positive. The system stopped treating Furrinya as a malicious file, and that gave Faro-chan the chance to take Her place.

Let’s imagine this parameter is stored as a file path with a whole bunch of variables that grant access to things or, the other way round, forbid them. In that case, to get access rights, all Faro-chan had to do was replace the path to Furrinya’s file with the path to her own file. If my theory is correct and this is even a slightly right interpretation of events… Then it means Furrinya is alive! The path swap went through successfully!! Which means Furrinya is now… … On the other side of the defenses? Among the glitches, in Faro-chan’s place?…

FARO-CHAN! DON’T YOU DARE HIDE THE TRUTH!!!

See you tomorrow.
