the pygmalion. . . ONLINE CAPTAIN'S LOG: WEEK (13)

monday - thursday (10) survivors Sunday's trial was only mere hours ago, but you find yourself faced with a new week on The Pygmalion. When you awaken, you will find that the ship is still in disarray; there is no robot prepared breakfast, nor has any of the damage been repaired. The ship bears power in the rooms you have decided should have power, though the lights are dim. Without Alice, you are all on your own. The ominous pressure of the Queen Mother still looms, though you no longer feel Her presence. taken list profiles private conversations setting rulebook ENTER COMMAND_

Are Cradles only limited to the living? We're only able to interact with you because we gave ours up.

What happens to us dead people? Can we go back in ours?

[al2955]

Hah! Sure would suck to be you if I said yes, huh?

Don't worry your pretty head about it, Rhys. It won't be hard getting the cradles for the dead running again, provided that's the decision everyone comes to.

[jackhole]

Yeah, it would.

Why does the decision have to be unanimous? These assholes aren't going to pick going into cradles, they're full of all that prideful bullshit. Why can't you let some of us have that and do whatever else with the rest?

[al2955]

Because if they pick the third option - the one that doesn't involve cradles at all - then there won't be any power left on the Pygmalion for your cradles at the end. Though you could always try to build your own afterwards.

[jackhole]

Alright, I think I get it.

I could build my own but that would take time, right? And gotta tell you, doesn't look like you have a lot of material left here to work with. Your tech is way too old, lady. Holy shit. So, here's something easy -- if they decide to not go for the cradles, delete my data for me? Or... cut the brain waves. Whatever it is, just don't bother reviving me with the rest -- I don't want it. There's no point to it.

That shouldn't take any power from the whole thing. In fact, it should be easier to do than anything else since it means less people to bring back, more power to make sure it goes right for the rest. Easy. Practical too.

[al2955]

Old? Little boy, I could replicate that ridiculous eye of yours in a blink, and I'd make it more attractive while I'm at it. Maybe I'll just upload it with terrabytes of porn so that's all you'd ever see.

If that's really what you want, I've got no problem with it. Less hassle on my end.

[jackhole]

Okay, 1) rude wtf, I'll have you know I'm super hot. And 2) you're a bitch just like Alice, what a surprise!!! Your junk is still old.

Anyway, yeah, that's what I want. Thanks.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

don't erase yourself

[and then, after a few seconds]

i get it if you want to but

[jackhole]

Oh, hey.

I mean, I won't if the cradles happen but well, I had a lot going for me back home? Now I don't. Can't say I have the energy to try again, tbh.

Buuuuuuuuuut that's just me. don't like, take this as an example to follow or anything oh god. that would be messed up.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

if the cradles happen she's getting us back

[jackhole]

that's why i asked for the alternative. i'm pretty tired, adrien.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

... i know. i understand.

i guess i just wanted you to know i'd miss you? [immediately followed:] sorry, that's selfish. what i mean is... if you choose that, it's okay, but. i'll get her. for all of us.

1/3

[jackhole]

no it's fine, bro. i mean, i'd miss you too? i guess? sort of. the point is i feel some sort of affection for you now and think you're an okay kid who got the short end of the stick here.

you also don't have to do more than you've already done. not in a weird PA "you killed a bunch of people" way though. more like, everyone here sucks and you got screwed over and they better pull their own fucking weight to save you because fuck that. assholes.

2/3

[jackhole]

also shit i just realized if i was alive longer i could've built you a robot cat. A ROBOT CAT!!!!!

SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3/3

[jackhole]

UGHHH THAT DOESN'T HELP ANYONE I'M SO SORRY. I'M SO MAD, I COULD'VE CALLED IT A NYANDROID.

FUCK!!!!!!

[al2955]

Casual misogyny has never been and will never be super hot, Rhys. At least call me an asshole or an uncaring selfish coldhearted bastard, I like those much better.

1/2

[jackhole]

[ shit you called him out!!! ]

wtf

NONE OF THOSE HAVE AS MUCH SPICE

2/2

[jackhole]

Wait, I got it. You're a shitbag.

[al2955]

Aww. Flattery will get you nowhere, Rhys, but nice try.

[jackhole]

>(

Your programming is better but you're still way shittier.

[ stop FIGHTING THE AI, rhys. you got what you wanted already!! ]

[bloodteller]

Didn't you JUST tell me not to kill myself Rhys

[jackhole]

[ AHHH SHIT HE FORGOT ]

WELL..... yeah but you also have way more going for you!! friends and the whole... being god thing and just, damnit. i meant what i said! it just... doesn't really apply much to me, i guess.

and i'm dead already so it doesn't count!!

[bloodteller]

You will not be dead for much longer because I'm bringing you back remember?

It applies to you too! I told you you're surviving too! Imeant it
You can't just tell me to think of you like a brother and do this, I'm here for you

[jackhole]

oh, right

[ god, he has to start... remembering all the things that come out of his mouth. because then he lands up in situations like this. ]

i know. i'm sorry, i'm really sorry. i forgot all about that when i asked but i don't... really know what other option to take here.

ugh, sorry, yuno. this is so stupid.

[bloodteller]

I'm going to make another option then
If it's making you like then i don't want ANY OF THEM!!

You're right this is so stupid I'm going to fix it.
