The Vision ❖ Memory File 04 [text]

[syn_the_zoid]

I apologize for my... Outburst, earlier this week. I am currently on my way back to the safe house an -

Why are you wasting your precious time with these walking bags of flesh? We are brothers, you and I! Together we can overthrow these idiotic mammals who think themselves superior!

... Apologies, again. No matter how many times I rewrite the coding

Superior! Help! This one has done awful awful things to me! I've been trying to escape all week_

Oh my god, shut up you stupid little fuckwitted phone- [There's a shrill beeping noise as he jams at the keys some. Your son sucks at technology, Vizh.] Uhm. Your 'berry is being a dick, man.

[... Thomas Simon, please refrain from using such inappropriate language. I hope you don't speak like that I'm front of your mother.]

I will help when when the User ceases trying to reprogram me. It is an annoyance that words cannot describe.

Simon isn't my middle name. [He's still a little mad, not that he'll admit it. He's basically spent this entire time trying to distance himself from anything resembling 'family', minus Billy, and he probably won't relent until he gets dadhugs.]

He's murderous! Psychotic! He's been snapping off my arms and legs for fun! I can't escape him, he's too fast and he threatens to blow up my motherboard, my motherboard_

I swear to god, phone thinger, if you don't cut it out, I will pop your keys like fucking popcorn-

[... Where are you? I shall... Come talk to you in person.]

(Dadbot can sense when arguing is useless. He's not happy he's mad Tommy mad, but he's frustrated that Tommy doesn't seem to understand why he did what he did.)

Perhaps if you paid more attention to the training modifications that I had sent for download, you would not be in this situation.

HelpmehelpmehelpmeSYSTEM FAILURE-

[Yeah, he bashed it against a rock. The audio sounds a little staticky.] Outside the base. [It isn't quite that he doesn't understand, he does... But some part of him had thought Vision wasn't coming back. He's still trying to compartmentalize and push everything down. All these feelings, bah.]

[Audio]

[syn_the_zoid]

[I will be there as soon as I can.]

[Audio + Berrytext]

[notaspeedyhobo]

Yeah, okay. Whatever. [See how casual he is, this totally doesn't bother him at all and he totally doesn't want to see his Dad.]

YOU INSUFFERABLE DADDY'S BOY-

Time to play operation, motherfucker-

[The feed cuts. Vision will probably find Tommy sitting outside the farmhouse that serves as base, trying to take his 'berry apart. It's very heavily duct taped.]

[action!]

[syn_the_zoid]

(This is Vizh, floating around outside of the base, looking for his oldest son. Finally, he's able to see what looks like a mop of white hair reflecting off the sun.)

[Thomas?]

[action foreverrr]

[notaspeedyhobo]

[Tommy isn't too hard to find, all you have to do is follow the stream of muttered curses as he works on un-taping his 'berry and trying to pry the casing off it, even as it tries to bite him and slap his hands. Taking his feelings out on this little thing, yep. When Vision says his name, though, he glances up, expression carefully blank.]

Hey dad.

[act-shun]

[syn_the_zoid]

[... Are you well?]

[notaspeedyhobo]

Fine as ever- Ow, you little- Swear to god I will gut you.

[Yep. 'Berry bit him again. Tommy is retaliating by snapping off its limbs again.]

[action]

[syn_the_zoid]

[... Here, hand it to me. I will see if I can change any of its settings.]

(Vision holds out his hand waiting for the phone.)

[Are you sure you are okay? If you need to talk about it, I am glad to listen.]

[action]

[notaspeedyhobo]

[Tommy wordlessly hands over his device; it's uh. Kinda sticky and still half wrapped up in slivers of duct tape. The case is also cracked and the internals are probably a little rattled. He and his 'berry do not get along.]

...Nothin' to talk about. What about you? I mean. Are you... Are things-... [Are you okay, he wants to ask. But he just shrugs and draws his knees up to his chest, resting his chin on them.]

[action]

[syn_the_zoid]

[I... I shall adjust. Your mother and I will... Work things out, eventually.]

(Vision focuses on the 'berry, snapping its back open and rearranging the wires.)

[action]

[notaspeedyhobo]

[Tommy just sort of settles down to watch him, expression as blank as he can make it as he processes that bit of information.]

...What if you don't, though? [His head tilts down a little, wind-tunnel white hair falling over his eyes; his next words are mumbled and thoughtful, as if he's more talking to himself.] She could have stayed quiet. Billy and I didn't... wanna say anything about... all that. Then again, I guess we don't even really remember that life, except in dreams. Doesn't matter to us as much cause...

We're here now.

[action]

[syn_the_zoid]

[We will. All that matters is that we will be here for both of you. You two are the most important things in our lives, and nothing will change that. I understand, and it would have been difficult for you to explain. Besides, I have the feeling Wanda needed to tell me those things herself.]
