ITP: Camp has a strange sense of humor

[sod_off_spark]

[So, here is an AI in both laptop and robot form in the Mess Hall. She is not looking at a metal doughnut in the center of the table. In fact she is not looking so hard it seems rather obvious that she would rather be anywhere but at this table with this metal doughnut thingy

This count toward my tab?

[talking in stereo, computer and the Avatar]

If it blows up this thing without energizing any of it's components enough to trigger it and kill every organic sentient for a thousand kilometers? Sure, I'll say that's worth quite a bit to me right now.

[roundhouselaser]

Thermal detonators, maybe?

[sod_off_spark]

Not familiar with those. But if they don't have much of a electrical pulse, it might be worth a shot.

[oh not this shit again]

NO MORE EXPLOSIONS!!

[sod_off_spark]

[whoa, little kid.]

Sometimes you have to blow things up. Like an old building to make way for a new one.

[404_leafclover]

But we don't have any old buildings!

[sod_off_spark]

There are other things that need to be blown up. Things like this.

[Shows you the metal doughnut thingy. It is covered in tiny triangles, lines and dots. Do you start touching it, Y/N?]

[putyourheartin]

Ah, does KOS-MOS have a sister?

[sod_off_spark]

[startled] Not that I know of. We are completely different, in design and purpose. I'm Cortana, and you?

[putyourheartin]

Shimazu Yoshino... It's nice to meet you, Cortana. It's because you're both blue, so I assumed.

[sod_off_spark]

Perfectly alright Yoshino. And I suppose that the hair does make us look similar. It simply didn't occur to me to ever compare our appearances before now.

[eggsplosive]

Why does somebody need explosives?

[sod_off_spark]

Well, sometimes when one is cleaning up, one finds things that need to be disposed of. And when neither a blowtorch or a laser work, one wants to try other options.

[eggsplosive]

Shouldn't a laser be able to do stuff an explosion couldn't?

[sod_off_spark]

It wasn't the strongest laser in the world, I must admit.

[has just finished reading the bulletin board]

I'm guessing that's not for a cooking experiment.

[sod_off_spark]

[is just going to look at you for a few seconds.]

I'm sorry, could you repeat that? Is that an actual rat, or did someone break the rules?

[ratinthehat]

[and you're getting stared at right back]

Uh, yes, I'm a rat, and I said I didn't think that was for a cooking experiment. ...What are you?

[sod_off_spark]

[laying down to look at you eye to eye.]

I'm a thinking machine. An Artificial Intelligence. You cook?
