Network Prompts
ONE: BUMP IN THE NIGHT It's dark out, and congratulations - you're inside! What's not inside, you might ask? Monsters. Shadowy monsters that have surrounded whatever house you've taken shelter in. They can't get in... or can they? From time to time, the doors and the walls creak as if under an unbearable pressure.
Who can sleep when it's like this? Maybe you should take to the network to find a distraction. Or maybe someone has advice for getting rid of those things.
TWO: BRING OUT YOUR DEAD We mourn the loss of those who have died in the time between the last announcement and this one:
...is that your name on that list? It might be. Maybe you should let the others know you're not actually dead. Or, you know, if you happen to spot the name of someone you know and love on there, it might be time to ask around and see if anyone knows what happened to your dearly departed...
Action Prompts
THREE: KYRIE ELEISON You've found yourself in a small chapel, complete with bolted-down pews, an altar devoid of symbols, and stained glass windows depicting various saints. It's quiet... one might even say dead quiet. Which is a really awful pun to be making, considering if you follow the stairs down to the basement you'll find a morgue.
Explore to your heart's content, but you'll be forced out at 7 PM. Hopefully you don't find any unfortunately familiar faces among the dead.
FOUR: LIGHTS OUT Against all odds, you've managed to make it to shelter for the night. You pull the door shut behind you and turn to look at your surroundings - and that's when you see it. A ... person. Is it a person? It's hard to tell, because a moment later, you're plunged into darkness.
...better hope that's another unfortunate visitor to Norfinbury you've been locked in with, and not something more threatening.
a cybernetic limb? if i could find you and take a look i would say i might be able to help, depending on the tools we would need. or tadashi maybe.
the closest thing i can think of is 3d printing which is how i made some armor and gear back home, but somehow i am not sure that's what you mean by this.
[ what could be wrong with big sis the horrible vault hunting mass murderer right? ]
It can smash concrete and everything. But hey if you wanna see, I'd love the extra help. Normally I can handle it myself, but without all my equipment I'd love the extra set of eyes on it. Whose Tadashi? 'Nother bot lover?
Uhhh, yeah I guess. I mean 3D Printing is real vintage, sort of gave way to this kind of stuff. But kinda like that. More like matter can be constructed completely digitally now. Even people. I can't count the amount of times I've been digistructed back to life.
[Clearly the best big sis. Best influence. What could possibly be wrong with that.]
yeah, he was at university studying robotics and everything back home. he's my older brother. if we can figure the supplies we would need, we can at least take a look at it for you if we're able to meet up somewhere.
even people? seriously? because that. definitely wasn't possible back home.
[ she encourages love and affection and robots that explode people and really big guns and -- HUGS. LOTS OF HUGS.
Damn, living the dream right? Sounds really cool and like he knows his way around bots. So if you think he'd help out?
Yeah!1 I mean technically my original body died the first time I died but pssssh, who cares when you get live through explosions to the face? But from the sound of it, I'm a little bit further along the line.
[ ... gaige... priorities ... also stop being a future tech snob... ]
[Love and affection via hugs with Baymax. Or just brotherly banter and teasing, of course. But Baymax 2.0 had potential to be a Gaige favourite. In Destroy mode, perhaps. Not that Hiro's too forthcoming on that with Tadashi. Yet.]
yeah. he's all about helping people, my brother. i got accepted to study at his university back home too. they didn't care about my age.
[And. Oh. Oh boy. Yes, Gaige, just unintentionally remind him of That Night why don't you. He'll take a moment there to calm down enough to reply.]
that's. pretty impressive? is there some sort of limit with that or?
[ If it's a robot, she'll love it, really. Unless it's CL4P-TRAP probably. just marshmallow hugs are the best thing. ]
Awwww that's cute. Yeah, I don't know many universities that care too much as long as you got the goods. Not that I got to go.
How old are you anyway?
[ she's having a moment of her own. Is there a limit? Yeah, there is. The hole in Roland's chest -- ]
Not much of one these days, as long as the corporations get what they want, you can do what you like, and no one governs them except their bank accounts. Sky's the limit blahblahblah.
[Baymax is the most huggable marshmallow. This is true.]
graduated school when i was thirteen. i'm fourteen now. it's usually not so much the issue of them caring as it is the rest of the students. they didn't appreciate a kid knowing more than them.
so long as you have the money then. and if you don't?
daaaamn you're my kinda company, kid. Can't wait to see what you think of my own handiwork.
Uh it tends to be... kinda cutthroat. Doesn't really matter how old you are, it matters how well you can keep alive kinda.
Talent, if you can give them something that makes you seem like a good investment... then they're all over you. You'd be like prime property to them, as example. Other then that, sorry bourgeois jerks that don't give a shit about you.
well, can't hurt to see what we can do with what is available here at least. to help you and everyone else. tadashi's good but between the two of us once he finds he, we'll figure things.
hey, i'm used to it. i didn't need them as friends when i had tadashi anyway. we did our own thing and he understands me better than they would.
[There are Reasons Hiro is decidedly not the best with socializing but. He is somehow managing. Okay so far with Gaige at least, it seems.]
[ you're officially too sweet to ever come to pandora she is gunna protect u. Her before her horrible ... detour, which granted she doesn't regret much of.
But she wasn't great at people either, robots were better than people in her experience, with a few exceptions. ]
The corporate world is vicious so you're totallllly better off where you are. Thouuuugh the tech is pretty damn cool. I mean it's limitless with robotics, you can build whatever the fuck you want, even if the AI can be a bit eeeeh sometimes, depending which one you get.
But yeah just tell me when you guys think you're free. I am fine for the moment, still got mobility in it, it's just not... quite. right. erg.
[Hiro definitely grew up under the same sentiments, Tadashi and his aunt aside, preferring his video games and bots.]
yeah ai can be a bit screwy. you should see baymax on low battery. it's like he's drunk or something and it was a mission and a half to get him home to charge.
i'll see what tadashi says once he gets here. he told me to stay put inside until he can come find me. and i thought he was worrying about me back home.
more like frustrating. he had next to no coordination and he was deflating the longer it took me to get him home. don't know what tadashi was thinking when he programmed that. probably just a mess with the coding or something.
it's vinyl, actually. which can have holes and get punctured easily. hence my later idea of making him armor to try prevent that. he had enough cellotape on him from our first trip out. but yeah, i don't know. maybe tadashi was just really tired the night he figured the low battery stuff or something.
but ah. i was fine back home without a gun. and then i had baymax to protect me. not that he is here or there are a lot of supplies but pretty much anything could be a weapon if you use it that way?
yeah you're gunna wanna upgrade that quick smart. I mean Vinyl's good and all but if you wanna do anything serious, you're gunna need something that can take a hit. Sounds like you got it covered tho. Nice choice, the carbon sounds totally hella.
.... how can you not have guns? Wow old earth is w e i r d.
Just.
Guns, dude. You need them for like living and stuff. But I guess you aren't a vault hunter so I'll give you a free pass on that. Still, I am going to find us some guns and we are teaching you to shoot, yeah?
well. perhaps i could do more upgrades. if i still had him.
[Hiro doesn't just mean here. But back home. In the attempt to save Abigail, he'd lost one of the last links to his brother in letting go of Baymax.]
not saying we didn't have guns. i just never used one or owned one myself. never thought of the idea. i could probably make an awesome gun if i tried and had the supplies, but. not sure how tadashi would take that idea.
[Let alone how Hiro himself would feel about it. After coming so very close to killing Callaghan in using Baymax the way he had, overriding the healthcare protocols.]
[ time to be exactly the kind of heartless monster vault hunters are accused of.
Or really everyone on pandora is, when skags exist, and you can be digistructed back to life? what is the point of being upset about it all anyway. Life is too full of explosions and skags, otherwise. ]
Eh, guns are only bad if you get in the way and you don't have a instahealth. Which is totally the other persons bad for not paying attention to the line of fire.
You'd drool over a maliwan. You ain't seen nothing yet until you see a gun that shoots pure electricity or acid or fire. Or guns that you can throw and turn into grenades, it's sick as hell.
[Well, of course he knows in theory of grenade launchers and flame throwers in a sense. He just never quite had nearly as much of an issue in picturing it like she's describing since the expo hall presentations.
Sorry if this takes him a bit to respond as a result here, Gaige.]
guess i understand instahealth in theory? and i assume a maliwan is a gun of some sort.
i think if anything i'd try a pistol or something simple?
[Assuming Tadashi doesn't see this and step in against it. Which. He probably will.]
[ She takes a moment to check herself, and right. yeah, the kid is smart, but of course he has no idea what maliwan is.
Whoops sorry, went and got ahead of myself.
Yeah instahealths are just like super bandaids. Heal you in seconds.
Maliwan is a gun company, there's like five or six big ones, and they run half the galaxy pretty much. Maliwan specializes on elemental damage. Short of it is, they shoot pure plasma, basically. If that's easier to think about. Or the big gun companies have like their signature move.
Yeah second we get our hands on it, I'll give you your first lesson.
But hell, no gun will ever be better than my bots, ya know?
super bandaids. i guess you guys didn't have baymax to back you up so you had to have something.
and shooting plasma? elemental damage? almost sounds a little like wasabi and his weapon. sort of. i should tell you about our team at some point.
maybe. unless tadashi finds out and puts his foot down. which i'm totally expecting.
but i know what you mean. i didn't do much of anything for my gear, baymax was my weapon once i coded him to learn karate and the rocket fist. and the wings.

i didn't have a lot on me either. phone is useless, so is my handheld. wait, your arm? And what's digistructing?
