A. 2240 Stevens Rd.[There is nothing more confusing than waking up in clothes you don't own, in a body that isn't your own, all of the above garnished by the fact that the room isn't yours, either
( Read more... )
[what a cheery sounding guy. That, along with all of the human this human that, is what prompts Rin to respond. After all, she relates to the plight of waking up in the wrong body.]
Actually, you called everyone! And this isn't a tournament, you've been jacked. ♪
[Rin's not even sure when is the last time she's called someone privately. The things you get used to, right?]
Anyway, when I say jacked I mean jacked. As in hijacked and maybe even jacked-in. There's supposed to be an element of virtual reality to this place, but I can't tell you much about that. ♪
You mean... kidnapped? It sounds like you're saying this is a game that someone entered me in without me knowing about it! But there's no way that can happen.
Even still, that's basically what I'm saying. ♪ If I could explain it more logically, I would, but there's a lot of stupid reality warping involved so that would really be a chore.
[Anything for praise and popularity! She takes a moment to run a search in her memories. The cool thing about being computerized is data doesn't tend to get lost. Once that's done, she attempts to explain as concisely as possible while leaving room for questions.]So, this place is called Mayfield, and the earliest first-hand record we have begins 3 years ago. That's apparently how long people have been mysteriously waking up here. According to the pamphlet I read there have been a number of eye-opening incidents before I came here. All of them are because of the handful of people who have been here the longest, and are sort of in charge. They have the power to brainwash or mind control anyone they bring in here, and I hear some can twist the physical realities of Mayfield too. Apparently, Mayfield is some kind of simulation, created by a guy called Zemekis, and its purpose was a refuge in response to some war - it's supposed to be an American family values paradise or something

[Oh wow, he's not a computer but he's far from slow -- still, that's a lot to take in. It would maybe be easier if he did have it all written out on a pamphlet!]
So it is a little like a game -- a survival game! But I'm not sure I want to be brainwashed... Unless we've already been brainwashed! But it doesn't feel like it.
[That really doesn't sound like a fun condition. He's still keeping in mind that this could be part of the tournament -- maybe you're a tutorial bot guide in the tournament and they're somehow entering a 5th round. But even Anon wouldn't go into the details of that with a stranger.]
No, trust me, if you were brainwashed, umm... well, we call people like that drones. They act like walking stereotypes, and that's all there is to them. Their personalities are either gone or suppressed. You definitely want to avoid it if you can. ♪
Actually, you called everyone! And this isn't a tournament, you've been jacked. ♪

[You can't see it, but he's being baffled at the phone right now. Seriously, how do you end up misdialing everyone.]
Haha, I wasn't sure it was a tournament either... but what do you mean by 'jacked'? [Way to be slangy vague.]

[That's such a weird idea for a phone. He will continue being absolutely baffled.]

It's nice to know I'm not brainwashed! But how do you avoid it? I guess there are rules to this game after all.

I mean I'm a robot, that's basically what I just said, isn't it? So there's no comparison! ♪

Oh -- you didn't act anything like a robot, so I couldn't tell. But, normal robots are more like drones, I think. At least where I come from!
