Remove and destroy the machine, then re-integrate into the main/original body (only if the machine is definitely broken).

At once, youuselose all feeling, or connection, from your main body. If you had not split off a small chunk of yourself, you're fairly certain your misadventures would have come to a close. Thankfully, you do still exist, though you feel your intelligence, power of creation, and sense of emotion diminish. Were such things visible, you would describe it as visibly changed. This is indeed a predicament you've found yourself in.
That, of course, being the significant loss of a wide variety of things.Spoiler: Yourself, Unnamed Small Dot (click to show/hide)

It amuses me for the moment, so I say let the fork live (and give it sentience (but not sapience)). Besides, we'll have plenty of opportunities to kill things later.
Split off the miniature piece of ourselves again. Make a solid box with an open end, place the miniature piece of ourselves in the box, then press the open end of the box against one of the sides of our area. Temporarily transmute the miniature piece of ourselves into a gas, then send it across the barrier. Turn it back into a solid once it's (fully) on the other side. Smush/flatten the box against the barrier to get all of the gas out of it if necessary.

In summary, I suggested splitting that small piece of ourselves again, turning it into a gas, and shoving it through the barrier around our little area that the GM said gases could pass through. Once on the other side, we could then turn it back into a solid. The box things is to ensure that all of the gas gets to the other side.It amuses me for the moment, so I say let the fork live (and give it sentience (but not sapience)).

Yes, but your reason was also a somewhat evil reason, so as not to show future subjects we can make mistakes.Letting them know that we can make mistakes will only cause them to worry and disobey us. Besides, we're nigh-omnipotent. Any/most of the mistakes that we do make can be undone.

Er it was less we stopped having a reason, and more that we overloaded on addictive happiness.I'm pretty sure that we became faded out/white because we lost the motivation to do anything.
Grow an arm with a hand, so that we might pet Cat if they return.
I agree, but since we gained the ability to feel emotions after the start, we clearly had motivation before emotions. So there's no reason to think we would lose it again. I suppose we could perform a test by having only the small chunk lose emotions.Er it was less we stopped having a reason, and more that we overloaded on addictive happiness.I'm pretty sure that we became faded out/white because we lost the motivation to do anything.
