#99FFFF: Shoutout to all the pears

[usedlick]

[Haha Connor doesn't know memes.

Also he's this terrible color!]

Hello. This is Connor, designated #99FFFF for this network.

I have been given a large box of pears. Seeing as I can't eat them, I thought I would offer them to anyone who wants them. I live in a boathouse in Bluo[1].

Also, I was wondering if there are any engineers here who have experience with robotics or androids, or any software developers who have experience with AI.

Thank you.

Nothing as advanced as AI and androids, but I'm pretty versed in robotics.

[usedlick]

It's a start. Who are you, exactly?

[deathscyther]

Duo Maxwell. I live in Bluo.

[usedlick]

It's nice to meet you, Mr. Maxwell, at least virtually. I'm looking for a way to make myself more useful here. Possibly make it so that my systems can better recognize and understand magic. Would you know anything about that?

[deathscyther]

Sadly, no. My world doesn't have anything like magic. Lots of tech, though most of it went to mobile suits and other war-time functions.

I'm a pretty adept mechanic, though, for what that might be worth.

[usedlick]

That’s still useful. It’s good to know who here is mechanic, in case I am damaged.

[If Duo doesn’t mind...]

I also know how to give instructions to repair myself, so as long as I can talk I can lead you through it.

[deathscyther]

[Duo might be doing a little cheer behind his screen. After weeks and weeks of being starved for some kind of tech to mess with he's got a fully functional AI android talking to him!

What a nerd.]

I am all for helping out!

[usedlick]

[Lucky for Duo, now he has an actual android to tinker with! At least a little bit.]

Thank you. I really appreciate it. In exchange, if you need my help, feel free to ask.

[He stares at moment at the message after he sends it. "In exchange"? He's supposed to take orders, not make deals.

Well, it's just a figure of speech.]

[deathscyther]

Hey, you're giving me something to focus on here. That's more than enough for me!

[usedlick]

Do you feel like you don't have enough to focus on here without me?

[deathscyther]

This town isn't exactly teeming with things I can build with or even fix. Aside from the laptops that is, but I haven't found anyone willing to let me open theirs up.

[usedlick]

That's true. It is rather primitive here, especially in comparison to the time I came from. I guess it's the same for you.

[deathscyther]

Yeah, pretty much. It's pretty disappointing and really doesn't give me much to look forward to, outside of waiting for the next crap the town is going to pull on us all.
