16th Fix

[Phone call filtered from NPCs/drones]

Hey everyone. Now that things are hopefully quiet again, I have some news for ya'll. I know I ain't the only one with some computer stuff here. Besides my laptop and iPad, I just got some servers back from home. Those along with Ruri's crazy futuristic super computer should be enough to get us all networked together! Now, if ya don't wanna, I understand, cuz ya have some sensitive materials ya don't wanna share on your machine. It won't be full access anyway, ya only have to share what ya want! So if you're interested, lemme know, and we'll get to work on it. I wanna see how many people we've got to work with. And if ya get a computer in the future, just gimme a call and we'll get ya hooked up. My name's Quinn.

[Never mind that he could use his technomancy to easily access whatever he wanted on your computer. OH WELL. He won't mention that part.]

[Action: Quinn about town! You might find him in the following places:

- He's standing outside the barber shop, wondering if he should get a haircut. He hasn't had one since getting to Mayfield, and that ponytail is well past his shoulders now.

- At the department store, looking over the appliances and talking to them. Yep. You might find him talking to the display models (so long as they're plugged in/have batteries). He'll have them in his hands and will be talking quietly and pleasantly to them. Mostly he's looking for anything he might be able to disassemble and use for spare parts, but making some new friends is always nice.

- Later that night, he's at the tavern, having a few drinks and talking to anyone and everyone at the bar. He's been a bit lonely lately, and he wants to make some new friends! Or just get laid. He might be hitting on you. Yes, you. Anyone.]

E....eehhh? W-what are you saying?! It-- it isn't anything like that! [ it's totally something like that ]

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Riiiiight. It's okay, man, nothin' to be ashamed of. You're secret's safe with me. [totally just teasing now]

[politerudeness.livejournal.com]

I-I do not know what you speak of! There is no such secret! It's simply private matters that are not to be shown to anyone else, even- even- ah, that is to say, anyone who is not myself! [ ...that's not completley a lie and it's not all porn and dirty stuff, what he's talking about, but still. ]

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Relax, man! Fine then, I believe ya. It's nothin'. Just don't put whatever it is in the network sharing folder and ya should be fine.

[politerudeness.livejournal.com]

[ sighs in relief ] ... Good. [ okay subject change time!! ] So then, Hoshino-san is setting this up, is it...

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Yeah! She's got that awesome super computer. Without it, I'd have to cross my fingers and hope that Mayfield would just send the right parts along to do it, and who knows how long that might take.

[politerudeness.livejournal.com]

That's very interesting. I was not aware... that child really is amazing. Not only that, she is so clever and mature for her age... [ translation: he's fanboying all over this on the inside. ]

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

She is. 15 goin' on 50, for that kid. Between her and the other people in this town, Mayfield's gonna have its very own internet!

[politerudeness.livejournal.com]

Inter...net... [ ] If that were to happen, then I could die happy...!

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Ha, don't get too excited yet. It'll be more like a glorified LAN, but maybe I can do somethin' to set up webpages later.

[politerudeness.livejournal.com]

...Naturally. Since I-I was speaking hypothetically, o-of course... y-yes.

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

I'll see what I can do though, since ya seem so excited about it.

[politerudeness.livejournal.com]

T-that's- ah,t hat wouldn't be necessary! Please do not trouble yourself...

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Naw, it ain't trouble! It'll gimme somethin' to do.
