Create a cat. Would be nice to have a friend!
+1. But try to do it outside of ourselves.

In that case, create a Habitat for the cat (and other living stuff we may create) so it doesn't suffocate in the Void.

+1 to all of that, but please remember the Laws of Physics

Can we remove them if they get in the way of creation?

Glass is, as usual, correct.
Yep, as ever, I bestow upon Glass the expected +1
I'm gonna say we go with whatever Glass's idea is.

-1. Permanently embracing the cat has the potential to be a problem depending on how this works out.

Seriously, ATHATH, we need to have an intervention about your death mug problem.

*slow clap* Well ATHATH congratulations. You managed to give the MC a mental breakdown before we even finished the first arc.
I didn't even read it first, I just saw it was ATHATH and noped it. Now that I read it x3 to noping

Can we use our eye to zoom in on the happiness machine?  Maybe we can figure out what went wrong.

From your power of creation, you create a cat, which, to ensure its survival in the void, has been given a breathing helmet. The cat seems tobe rather handsome, if you do say to. It shares your colors. Otherwise, the little creature does not seem disturbed by popping out of nowhere, and floats perfectly happily, as a cat does. For its comfort, you create a platform on which it may rest.

Next, you bring the concepts of physics into the mix. You feel a palpable difference. There is definitely a medium in the Void, perhaps somewhat contrarily, though you do not think it is air. The laws of motion have come into being, as you see the cat, with it's platform ever so slightly shifting as it adjusts its own seating. Other laws, particularly those that come into conflict with your acts of creating something from what appears to be nothing, and all sorts of other hullabaloo. Perhaps they interfere with the void?



Next, you create a fork. Due to your lack of specification on what fork it should be, it appears as a wooden-handled pitchfork, points away far safety, of course. You then decide to name it Dan, which you find odd; to personally name an inanimate object, you mean. That reminds you that you haven't even begun to name yourself!



In a flash of inspiration, you decide to turn the as-yet unnamed cat blue. A rather nice pale blue, you find it tingles your senses of emotion, particularly in the positive sense. The cat appears mildly cross with you, being irritated at its sudden change in color scheme, though it continues to sit there, watching for what you will do next. Its mouth moves, as if to make a sound, but you hear nothing. It's probably due to the gas-tight seal around the helmet which the cat is wearing.

In an attempt to remedy this, you create some air, which in theory, should fill your area, making it both capable of carrying sounds, and being breathable to non-dot based life. That is, if you are even alive in the first place. Hm. Anyhow, your go at this fails, with the air suffusing amongst the curious gas the void is filled with. It appears the borders of your area are proofed against solid, but are permeable by gases.



You then proceed to try to zoom in on your happiness machine. It goes a decent bit, before failing to magnify further. It appears that this isn't one of those previously mentioned "Noteworthy items". You believe the issue, rather than the machine failing, did its job perfectly- that job, of course, being pacifying your own consciousness into a state of unresponsiveness and inaction. You wonder whatever you were thinking at the time, for this was surely detrimental to your own health. From your own observation, you would have become paler, and paler, until you would be "one with the void". Perhaps your health relies on action? Perhaps.

These things are all to confusing without a way to interpret them. Create a brain.
