Krissy 80: dammit, is Danielle still doing those experiments? F T F O I: Yes, but all I know is that I was running a standard check through the network and >lab:status turned up static. Could just be a technical thing or a malfunction, but still. Krissy 80: Well, it's not really my area of expertise... I only drop the corpses off in there. I'm terribly horrible at science. After we shredded that horrible intern.. anyway, do you want me to take a look, or shall the midget.. I mean, Danielle do it? F T F O I: Let's just ask TBD what's up with the lab computers. Krissy 80: Yogurt? What would it know? F T F O I: that's TCBY, fool. TBD, I said. Krissy 80: But I really want some.... ::pouts:: F T F O I: then go! isn't there a TCBY a couple of stores down? Krissy 80: I thought it was a White castle now. And it was a Wendy's before that... and before that... F T F O I: damned minimalls. Krissy 80: affirmative action? where? ::looks around quickly:: F T F O I: yea, damn that shit, too. Krissy 80: well then, anyway..... F T F O I: Asked danielle yet? Krissy 80: um.. no. I'll go ask her now... ::looks nervous for a bit, then darts over to ask:: F T F O I: ::studies Lampy's behaviour, puzzled:: Krissy 80: Rob says there's a problem with the computer. Nikki Tyr: What sort of problem? Krissy 80: status is static. Nikki Tyr: A salt and pepper snow crash sort of thing? Krissy 80: ask him. I'd rather not. Nikki Tyr: I certainly will. Krissy 80: so... you feeling okay? Krissy 80: ::makes small talk while waiting for Danielle:: F T F O I: well, I haven't been eating lately. Krissy 80: hmm. you really should eat. it'll put ya in a better mood. hey, looks like Danielle's on the case. Maybe I'll go interro.... iiiinterview Lenny. ::wanders off to the vault:: F T F O I: Lampy? Krissy 80: ::yells from the other side of the room:: feeling fine Rob! everything's just peachy! F T F O I: No, I meant to tell you...Lenny's not anywhere NEAR the vault... Krissy 80: what?!? You didn't let him go, did you? F T F O I: he was never anywhere near the vault. he's outside. Krissy 80: ::a camera zooms in on her face, brushing her cheek:: goddammit! ::swats it with her hand:: I put him in the interrogation room for questioning. he's a suspect! F T F O I: Oh...wasn't aware, that's all. Sorry, I've been in this room and the control room for a bit too long, I think. I'm going out for some air. Krissy 80: are you sure you want to do that....? F T F O I: Don't worry, I'm not going into the backways. Krissy 80: no, no, I understand that, but are you sure you really want to go... out there? F T F O I: o, shit...you mean the corp's and the cameras? Krissy 80: ::watches as Rob opens the door and a seering light enters the HQ, as a hundred flashbulbs go off:: F T F O I: ::jumps back inside:: screw them! F T F O I: ::slams door:: Krissy 80: gee Rob, you seem a little irked... Krissy 80: angry... Krissy 80: you wouldn't happen to have any weaponry on ya? F T F O I: No, left it all back in the armory after the Masochrist incident. Krissy 80: because if you do, I think I'll be going over.. there... Krissy 80: oh, that's good. and hopefully we won't be seeing him again, will we? F T F O I: Danielle thinks that IF he's back, and IF he's the one causing our trouble, then he's back because of the experiments. Krissy 80: what experiments? F T F O I: her experiments. some mind versus brain thingie. Krissy 80: why do I not like the sound of this? but, then, I don't like the sound of anything. so... I'm going to go help with the computer, and you... just relax. kick back. watch some T.... maybe you shouldn't... ::pulls the power cable out of the television:: F T F O I: Yea, I know. The shows go from bad to worse...and they were already bad years ago... F T F O I: and you don't like the sound of it because we should all remember that Masochrist was an anthropomorphic representation of some psychotic part of me. Krissy 80: oh, that's just.. great... hey, you want anything to drink? we have Tang, Tang, Tang, and Tang. F T F O I: what, no iced tea? Krissy 80: no, but we have lots of Tang. Try some Tang. See the Tang? F T F O I: I'm aware of the Tang, okay? Lampy, what's the matter with you? You've been acting funny all night. F T F O I: ::walks into the control booth:: Krissy 80: I think it's the media attention... gets me nervous... all these cameras, watching me... watching me... godammit! ::takes out her Pez Gun and shoots out one of the lenses:: I can't even go to the bathroom in peace! F T F O I: ::takes the main computer out of sleep mode:: F T F O I: run>cameras:offline,delay=0 F T F O I: >cameras: warning: cameras are on manual F T F O I: shit, this sucks! F T F O I: how many are there? Krissy 80: cameras are prolly connected to an outside line.... and I know security is compromised because I shot out that camera yesterday.... F T F O I: okay, so there are just about any number of cameras, and some could be hidden. Fine. What do you know about the network connecting to the legal department? Danielle says it's not wired in, but I was just online with them fifteen minutes ago. Krissy 80: ::looks over Rob's shoulder, and hits a few buttons, bringing up legal stats. unbeknownst to Rob, she plants a small bug on him:: hmm... I don't know. tell you what... you check up here, and me and Danielle are gonna go down into the vault, check connections, take care of some.. other business, kay? F T F O I: wait, where exactly do legal work? They're not in the main building...at least not on this floor.
