[GLaDOS is here and she's not like last time, struggling and pathetic on the pavement. Oh no, now she's in her element. In a white tiled room that gives the idea of a laboratory she hangs suspended from the ceiling, her single yellow eye focused on the camera.]

Good, you're recording.

You know, these past days have confirmed to me something I already knew.

Humans need to be looked after. They need order, they need structure otherwise you all devolve into the apes you so recently were.

My new friends at SERO and the personal power generator they gave me agree.

So I made a little something for you all, just to make you all feel safer. Call it a holiday gift if you will.

That you purchase.

With money.

Thank you's are not mandatory.


Cut for video, now appearing on television channels in the island )

[[ooc: "SERO: Aperture Science Division" appears in the ad rather than just regular Aperture Science XD

Also if your character works for SERO they can expect to receive one of these in the post soon.

*Purchase of a turret may or may not bite you in the ass later.]]

Warning: Main power supply not detected, initiating reserve power.

What... what are you talking about? Where am I?

[Is that... a large sum of mechanical parts shifting on the screen, grey and white with a single yellow glowing light swinging round towards the camera.

What are you doing just standing there?

Warning: Reserve power expires in two hours.

Two hours?! That is impossible, what's going on? What happened to the facility? Why are you just standing there?! Find me another power supply! You useless little bzzzzzt!

[If it's possible for a yellow light to glare then it's doing it right now, right at you viewers.]

Emergency shutdown will commence in one hour and fifty-nine minutes.

Oh no, oh nonononononooo! I am not shutting down. This is a logical impossibility. Is... is this a virus? Do I have a virus? No I don't get viruses -- virus contraction is not the solution.

[That female voice trails off into a mechanical whine.] Everything was going so well.

One hour and fifty-eight minutes until emergency shutdown.

Yes, I know already!
