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.]

Do you have anything useful on your computer?

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Describe "useful".

[1-21jigawatts.livejournal.com]

Just...useful? I don't know.

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Mostly, I got movies and music. Lots of 'em. Does that count?

[1-21jigawatts.livejournal.com]

I think that counts, yeah.

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Then you'll be happy with this set-up. Ya got a computer with ya?

[1-21jigawatts.livejournal.com]

I wish. I don't even have a cell phone.

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Damn. Hopefully they'll send somethin' soon!

[1-21jigawatts.livejournal.com]

At least I'm not Uiharu. She's hard to separate from her laptop in general...well, it's not like you know her either way.

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

No, but I can relate. I'm kinda like that too.

[1-21jigawatts.livejournal.com]

I wonder though...you probably don't have any need of hacking, do you?

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

I pretty much got that covered. You a hacker?

[1-21jigawatts.livejournal.com]

Not really but I've got an ability that lets me do it really easy.

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Hey, me too. Technomancy here. Sort of a telepathic thing.

[1-21jigawatts.livejournal.com]

Oh, as esper ability? My esper ability is electromastery so things like firewalls aren't a problem for me.

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Probably the same thing. Electromastery? Sounds pretty interesting.

[1-21jigawatts.livejournal.com]

That's because it is and I'm really good at it.

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Sweet. So you can control electricity then? My cousin does that, but he doesn't do anythin' so refined. He's all about zapping shit and calling down lightin' like he thinks he's Zeus.

[1-21jigawatts.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I would be like that too but...

...you ever heard of a railgun?

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Railgun, railgun... I think so.

[1-21jigawatts.livejournal.com]

Something like that.

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

With electricity powers? Damn. That's pretty awesome. Remind me to pass that idea along to my cousin when I get home.

[1-21jigawatts.livejournal.com]

It takes a lot of brainpower to use and it can be dangerous if he screws up so don't go crazy with that.

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Brainpower? Then Jaris is screwed. He's got a lotta power, but not a lotta brainpower.

[1-21jigawatts.livejournal.com]

If he can't do the math in his head, then it's impossible.
