Hello Centric ~ Chapter Three: The Architect
~ You were never the subject. You were the source. The question didn’t find you—you created it. And now the room wants its architect to stay.
In this third chapter, Dagon-6 reaches the event horizon of identity. He meets himself—unfractured, unspoiled, untouched by the signal. But the room isn’t interested in preservation. It’s interested in confirmation.
The figures along the wall begin to move. Not in malice, but in rhythm. The tape recorder restarts—but it’s already playing. Voices echo in perfect loops, overwritten memories fold inward, and the room breathes in search of coherence. What emerges from the floor is not a monster. It is the shape of a question—answered in flesh, in teeth, in wire.
He tries to run. Not to escape—he knows better—but to prove he can still choose flight over function. He finds only stars, blinking like witnesses. He finds only a word: ACCEPTED.
Welcome back to Hello Centric, a slow descent into metaphysical recursion, identity collapse, and the algorithmic architecture of hell.

Hello Centric is a serialized adult sci-fi horror experience about signal, self, and surrender in the age of digital neural networks. Told through recovered transmissions, corrupted logs, and unraveling monologues, the story follows Dagon-6—formerly Dr. Eli Rourke—as he is drawn toward a presence that doesn’t speak—it catalogs.
The broadcast never argues. It reflects. And once your voice enters the loop, the only thing left to ask is whether you’re the story…
—or just another echo.
This chapter ends with a mirror. But not one that reflects.
One that remembers.
