AndrAIa's Log- 00110001 [Video]

[andr_ai_a]

[There's supposed to be a video feed, but it's pitch black and it's hard to see. It's night and you can barely make out a female, slightly illuminated by the Core building's light.]

Hm... well, I see a lot is going on in this place. The welcoming committee was a little less comforting than I'm sure they meant to be.

[She stops a moment, and you can make out her features a bit better. Teal eyes, teal hair. She eyes some of the signs around the baseball diamond.]

Someone's got a sense of humor.

So... go to the light or head into the pitch black towards what I can only imagine is just my very own personal parade.

Hm. Tough choice.

Anyone see any other outsider sprites around here?

[cognidis]

Yeah, it's....really gross.

[ Deleted, what? ]

It's no problem. Just let me know if you need something, okay?

audio;

[andr_ai_a]

Will do.

You're staying at the apartment complex?

audio;

[cognidis]

I used to!

It's a good place to start, if you really need somewhere to go, but- you should probably find something else once you get a job.

audio;

[andr_ai_a]

A job?

Hm, sounds reasonable enough all things considered. If you don't mind me asking, where would I find some job listings?

audio;

[cognidis]

Ah, let me pull something up--

[ He sends this to her. Let us pretend it's a job listings. ]

It kinds of depends on what you're used to doing, though.

audio;

[andr_ai_a]

I'm used to playing games and fighting. Doesn't seem like this system gets Game Cubes though, and I'd feel pretty bad about asking to get paid for it either way.

Hmm... wonder what else is out there.

audio;

[cognidis]

[ Aaaaand he still has no idea what some of those terms she's saying mean. But he gets the general gist. ]

Well...there's bounty hunting?

I'm not sure if you'd want to be tied down to something, but we can always use more people in the police force too.

audio;

[andr_ai_a]

Is that what you do?

audio;

[cognidis]

Protect and serve, yeah.

[ A beat. ]

Or try to, anyway.

audio;

[andr_ai_a]

Good for you.

Is crime pretty bad here?

audio;

[cognidis]

....kind of?

It's hard to say because a lot of things just...don't get processed.

Or they're covered up.

audio;

[andr_ai_a]

Sounds frustrating.

audio;

[cognidis]

Sometimes.

It's rewarding too, though, so I can't really complain.

What about you?

audio;

[andr_ai_a]

[There's a small laugh]

What about me?

audio;

[cognidis]

The "Game Cubes" you mentioned -- what are they like?

audio;

[andr_ai_a]

Unpredictable. They usually come out of nowhere. Inside one- it can be anything. Sometimes it's a round of golf, other times it's a star fighter battle.

No matter what, though, the objective is to beat the User and avoid the game sprites.

audio;

[cognidis]

[ Star....fighter battle? ]

A "User">

audio;

[andr_ai_a]

[Oh... what did Dave say again about using the word "User"?]

Err... human, I guess is one way to look at it.

audio;

[cognidis]

[ ......................what. ]

...wait. So when you said "system" - you mean a "computer system"?

[ WHAT. ]

audio;

[andr_ai_a]

Well... Yeah. Of course.

audio;

[cognidis]

[ O_O ]

So you....live inside the computer?

audio;

[andr_ai_a]

I did. I guess not so much anymore.

audio;

[cognidis]

[ . . . ]

Wow.

[ Awkward. ]

Is it...very different there?

audio;

[andr_ai_a]

It might be a little soon to tell, but from what I see there are some major differences already.

... Is it that strange?
