Awaken...

[ Everything still feels a bit hazy when you pull yourself out of bed this morning. Bed... not all of you may remember going to bed. It may take several long minutes for that feeling to die down. Several things may seem immediately wrong. But even if the basics are familiar-- there's a sort of uneasy feeling of wrongness that lingers as you come to. That feeling will probably never go away entirely.

Attached to your wrist is a small plastic wristband, almost like a watch, but without the numbers. Try as you might, it won't come off. For those of you who are familiar, it is designed with an uncanny familiarity to a Fitbit.

And then there's your current abode-- the room is fully furnished for one person-- and you are in fact alone, which may be a relief... or a great concern. The basics are all there: desk, lamp, bed, closet...

As the little things go though, it's almost completely bare of any personal flare. No personal effects at all...

With one exception.

On the desk sits a black tablet. And almost immediately after you find it, the thing starts going off one rapid fire 'ding' after another. Check it out and you will find several messages have popped up on the screen for you to scan through. The source and the content is... well. As questionable as everything else this morning I'd say. ]

meguman22922: mornin'! hope you slept well.
meguman22922: orientation will be held in the main classroom in an hour. that's in the school building on the 1st floor
meguman22922: but first you should introduce yourself. the others should be waking up about now too.
meguman22922: you're in the dorms now, so dont forget to check the maps
meguman22922: the tablet can help you with that. anything else, we'll get to at orientation. so! see you in an hour! :D
 


[ It would seem that you have much to investigate. Perhaps discussing it with these "others" may be the most beneficial way to proceed for now. At the very least there is a promise of answers in the near future. Whether or not they'll be to your liking though... highly doubtful at this stage, really. But who knows! Going back to school (or to school for your first time) can't be so bad, right? ]

Um... 2017 last time I checked.

[As far as she can remember anyway.]

Why?

blackcatintheruemorgue: (Neutral Sad)

[personal profile] blackcatintheruemorgue 2018-08-13 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
It is.

[Or close to it anyway.]

Let's go.

That explains why androids only exist in science fiction.

[ at least that's one mystery "solved" ]

It's 2038.

[ Who needs logic when you have the rule of funny. ]

That might actually explain why these tablets are so fucking clunky. And who the hell even uses fitbits anymore? Those got bought out decades ago.

[ He shrugs. ]

Think I'd remember if I saw one, so nope. Far as I can tell, it's just you.

What?! So that means you have five brothers? I've only ever had the one...!

[Craziest news she's heard yet!]

Hang on... [She's putting on her 'thinking' face again.] If you're looking for so many people, why don't you check the tablet to see it they're on it?

[ whoa yeah hank is weirdly happy to see him that's strange. ]

No, Cyberlife isn't involved in this.

[Should.... should he comment on the anger...?]

........Please don't do anything rash.

[ Look, he's a familiar face, that's like already tons of points in his favor. ]

Well, shit. Then you don't know what's going either, do you?

[ Strap in, because it's gonna get crazier. ]

[ And... huh. He didn't think of that. ]

Tablet? Y-Yeah! Good idea!

[ He boots up the tablet and... ]

...That...doesn't seem right...
blackcatintheruemorgue: (Um. Okay.)

.... Is this more about that other Edgar Allan Poe i'm hearing about? I thought he was an occultist, not an author like me.

[At this point it's best not to get his hopes up.]

Yes. Please do so. Karl is very friendly, and probably the only raccoon in this place. So if you see one, it's most likely him.

[personal profile] itwasfeyt 2018-08-13 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
Y-yes...I was in a dark cellar, and then... I was sitting at that desk, like we all were.

[Right? That's what happened, even if it feels... strange.]

Whatever's going on, I really need to get out of here and back to Nick! He's gotta be worried sick about me since he doesn't even know I've been double kidnapped!

It says ass! [ thanks oso that was very informative ] It's the Ass tablet!

Everyone I have talked to so far seemed likewise confused.

[ too bad their social link isn't higher so connor can tell him his Real Problems ]

Who knows? We won't know their demands until they trot out whatever representative is at this 'orientation.'

[He says the word like it's foreign.]

Ugh! Come on...! Am I seriously the only Matsuno here?!

[ Yep. ]

Why me?!

Do I look like an idiot to you? I know better than to try my luck when I'm unarmed.

One of the profiles talked about time machines. If we open ourselves up to the possibility that could really happen - then maybe both of our statements are correct.

Guess it's your shitty luck, kid.

[ He does feel kinda bad... I mean, he's a civilian. ]

What's your name?
preconstruction: (i thought this would all work out)

[personal profile] preconstruction 2018-08-13 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
[ maybe this is a touchy subject....he'll drop it. ]

Karl. I'll be on the look out.

And your systems -- can't you scan the place, or tell Cyberlife you're MIA or something?

[ It's cool, Hank feels weird talking to an android like he's a person but it could be worse. He could have poured out his drink! ]

It's nice to meet you, Gogol. I am an android, created by CyberLife. As a unique model, I was given a unique name.

[ oh honey ]

I'm currently offline.

[ it's distressing. ]
blackcatintheruemorgue: (Worried Anxiety)

[personal profile] blackcatintheruemorgue 2018-08-13 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
No, you don't. I'm saying it more for my... peace of mind than anything else.

[So that if Hank does something stupid, he won't feel like he could've said something.]

[ Osomatsu slouches in exasperation. So his brothers aren't here then. Ugh. ]

...Name's Matsuno Osomatsu. [ wait this is a westerner so ] Er, Osomatsu Matsuno? First name's Osomatsu.
