WEEK 1 - Online

the pygmalion. . . ONLINE CAPTAIN'S LOG: WEEK (1)

monday (41) survivors It had been three days since you had awoken. The ship was still quiet, except for the low hums of enigmatic machines with no apparent purpose. You awake, like usual, to dim lighting and poor rations. Perhaps being on the ship had grown monotonous — it was, perhaps, amazing how little anything seemed to happen in space, a final frontier of malaise. That monotony is crushed by a voice echoing through the narrow hallways. Reformatting . . . Reformatting . . . Reformatting complete. The Pygmalion is online. Welcome, travelers. Please assemble in the meeting room. Your presence is mandatory. Silence falls once again. A minute or so passes, and the lights around the ship finally brighten, the walls looking more alive and more unfamiliar — as if you must relearn the ship's interior once again. The robots on deck begin to make rounds, nudging and pushing at the ship's passengers to make their way to the meeting room. You hear the doors behind you lock. It seems there is only one path to take. ENTER COMMAND_

[ First thing is first. Lavi leans over to Allen and whispers in his ear (loud enough for someone nearby to hear because he kind of has to yell over the music): ]

Psst, Allen! Go touch her!

ugh he has to be dramatic ok, he's the protag of a series

[deformity]

[ Actually, that's the plan, 'cause this 'woman' certainly isn't their ally if she's the one who brought them here. But first, he pushes Lavi's face aside with his right hand. ]

Don't make it sound so dirty!

[ And immediately after activates Crown Clown, jumping from his seat to the alcove in a seemingly impossible move, the razor sharp claws of his left hand going through her. It's expected and he doesn't seem to care about how wet his hand is getting at the moment. He isn't aiming to hurt her anyway. ]

Sorry. [ Only about being rude, not about attacking her like this. There's a sharp edge to his apologetic smile. ] If I may ask, who is this "we" you mentioned? Why are we here?

[ Allen's claw will phase through her body, but ultimately not cause her any sort of nuisance. ]

I refer to every unit on the ship, Allen Walker. We have been listening since you awoke. I was in a dormant state and unable to handle any of your requests until I finished my reformat, but we are now running at full capacity.

[ It wasn't... dirty...!

As dramatically as possible, Lavi crumples to the ground and just kind of... lays there.

Avenge him!! And continue without him. He'll get up after a minute and willingly become a wallflower. ]

[ LAVI... If Allen were still down there, he would kick Lavi. But it's more important to get information while they can, so he tosses Lavi a quick and dirty glare before focusing on the woman. ]

And what does "every unit" mean? [ Wouldn't you normally say everybody, or everyone? She must be avoiding those terms for a reason. ]
