WEEK 3


WEEK 3


Another Sunday, another day to rest and recover after trial. The weather is now uncomfortably hot and humid after all the rain - perfect swimming weather, if what happened during the execution didn't put you off from swimming for a good long while.

As before, The RV's have changed, but it might not be the best idea to go and bother them after last week's...well, mistake. Maybe give it a week to rest. Additionally, if anyone tries to play the Wii, they will find that Chloe, Talcott, and Sayama's Miis have disappeared - as well that the machine itself is spitting out some strange music at the home screen and the Mii channel. The games seem unaffected by the musical change, at least - and there's now a copy of Mario Party 9 ready to be played alongside Wii Sports. Try not to murder each other or fling the wiimotes into the tv, alright?

The rest of the camp is the same as always, though now fishing equipment is always left out near the lake and beach, and there's a taped on sign on the slope railing declaring 'DO NOT LEAN ON.' Looks like they finally noticed the hazard that thing could potentially be. The kitchen has been fully scrubbed, the faint scent of lemon wafting in the air. Hm.

Two weeks have gone by, and with it, 6 of your fellow campers are gone. There are only six weeks left - six long weeks, and your chances of making it out dwindle all the time.

Knowing that, what will you do?



23 CAMPERS REMAIN.

Okay... Uh... What's an Altean... And what's an AI?

[kid's from 1988, you're speaking a foreign language to him.]
particlebarrier: (Talking)

[personal profile] particlebarrier 2018-06-19 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh....]

Alteans are aliens that have super advanced technology -- way beyond anything that we had on Earth. AI stands for artifical intelligence. Y'know? Like robots?

[HE WAVES HIS HANDS.]

Anyway, the point is that this technology exists -- I've seen it before. We've used it to try and extract memories and information from a Galra general we had captive and Allura's dad used it to preserve all his memories in a computer program before he died. I don't know how it works, but it works. And more importantly, it looks like these guys might have something similar.

Okaaaaaay... I still don't get half of what you said. But I think the point is the technology exists to do this shit, right? So how'd it get on one of those circle rock things?

[discs... He means discs.]
particlebarrier: by request of the icon creator, pls do not take (Kinda stumped tbh)

[personal profile] particlebarrier 2018-06-20 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
...Circle rock thing?

[RAISING AN EYEBROW??]

You mean, like the disc? I don't know how the memory got on there, you'd have to ask Pidge about the details of how this stuff actually works, but uh...Pidge isn't here, so....uh.

[Awkward silence.]

Copy pasta maybe??? I don't think the disc itself has the technology on it, just the data from the memory. The technology they use to go through people's brains and extract data is probably in the same place Red sent people that time Lenka nearly got all of us killed.
itsagazebo: (omg ur gross)

[personal profile] itsagazebo 2018-06-20 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
Copy... Pasta? What does pasta have to do with any of this?!?

[Seriously? What the fuck?!]
particlebarrier: by request of the icon creator, pls do not take (Vaguely concerning)

[personal profile] particlebarrier 2018-06-20 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
[OH GOD WHAT HAS HE DONE?!]

Huh? Ah - no, no I didn't mean actual pasta, I meant the copy and paste. You know, the commands on a computer that lets you copy data from one place and paste it into another?

[...is he making this better or worse, he cant tell.]
I hope there isn't any real pasta involved in this, just as much as you, okay?
itsagazebo: (Just sayin')

[personal profile] itsagazebo 2018-06-20 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
[He shakes his head]

Listen, dude, where me and Richie are from? Computers are, like, something that fucking NASA uses. I've never even seen one outside of a magazine, or... Or in a movie. So I have no fucking idea what you're talking about.
particlebarrier: by request of the icon creator, pls do not take (Vaguely concerning)

[personal profile] particlebarrier 2018-06-20 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
[He stares for a moment, then nods.]

Where I'm from.... pretty much everyone has a computer. It's pretty hard to get by without one. You use them to do... well pretty much everything. And we're still pretty primitive compared to the Alteans and the Galra.

[....and because apparently Lance can't sustain conversations without derailing them in some way....]

....What do you guys even do for fun?
itsagazebo: (You're not serious)

[personal profile] itsagazebo 2018-06-20 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
We go outside instead'a just fucking staring at screens. Hang out with friends, go swimming... sometimes we go to the movies or to the arcade or whatever, but there's a ton of shit to do!

[Seriously, what kind of dumb ass question is that?!]

You use computers to do everything? Does anyone do anything for themselves at all?
particlebarrier: (Talking)

[personal profile] particlebarrier 2018-06-20 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
[Ahhh, so more outdoorsy things. More like the kind of things he used to do back home before he joined the Garrison. The confusion on Lance's face clears.]

Okay, so maybe "everything" was a bit much. It's not like we don't get up to use the bathroom and stuff.

[Lance why is that your first example.]

And people can go to the mall or to other places if they want? It's just that you don't have to buy things at a store or go to the arcade if you wanna play some video games with friends. You can do all of that stuff online on the internet.

[personal profile] itsagazebo 2018-06-20 12:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[He laughs at the bathroom comment. Oh if Richie had only heard that one]

I guess that's something. What's the internet? Somewhere you go to do this stuff? [And stand in a line? HE DOESN'T GET IT?!]
particlebarrier: (Talking)

[personal profile] particlebarrier 2018-06-21 07:26 am (UTC)(link)
[...Cue some more staring. Not that this was an unexpected question, but it's just JARRING to talk to a kid who sounds like his grandpa.]

...No. It's not at all like that. You don't go anywhere. See, everyone has data uploaded on...[Trailing off because actually he has no real clue how the internet works??? Uh.] ...online, and you can download the information on your computer.

[WAVING HIS HAND AGAIN BEFORE EDDIE ASKS MORE TECHNICAL QUESTIONS.]

BSICALLY, you can access all kinds of information on the internet. Think an encyclopedia plus food delivery plus any kind of entertainment plus all the random information you could ever want by typing in a few search terms

Oh. And the trolls. You can't forget the internet trolls. [/SAGENOD.]
itsagazebo: (Riiiiiiiiight)

[personal profile] itsagazebo 2018-06-22 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS INTERNET?! It sounds scary...]

That... I guess having information available is good. But... trolls?
particlebarrier: (SIGH)

[personal profile] particlebarrier 2018-06-23 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
[IT IS A BEAUTIFUL PLACE AND NOW THAT THERE ARE LAPTOPS HE CAN MAYBE SHOW YOU ONE DAY WHEN THE HIPPIES PAY FOR THEIR WI-FI.]

Trolls.

[His expression is dead serious here. And that's it. That's the explanation.]
