17th Fix

[techno_mancer]

[Thanks to being at stage three, Quinn really messed stuff up with his best friend in town. He's wrestling with a lot of feelings that a chill and in-control guy like him never deals with normally, and still being under the secret-blurting effect, really wants to get this off his chest to someone. The problem is that he doesn't know who to go to

[Ruri opens the door and nods to Quinn with a bag over her shoulder]

"Hello Quinn."

[techno_mancer]

Oh, hey Ruri. Um. How ya holdin' up? I'm here to check on your crazy not-dad.

"I'm all right. I was about to head out to Miss GLaDOS' home and go over repair work with her. Scott has locked himself in the bathroom."

[techno_mancer]

Yeah, I heard his phone call. I was wonderin' if he came to his senses yet.

[hontobakabaka]

"Not that I've seen. Though, I've been staying out of the house to give him space."

[techno_mancer]

Great. Do ya think I should do the same, or try 'n' talk to him?

[hontobakabaka]

"Well, he professed love for me and Miku and several of our friends threatened his life. That's why I'm giving him space. To calm them down. I don't think that the town would see him hitting on you as creepy as you aren't a little girl, so perhaps talking would be better for you."

[techno_mancer]

They seriously threatened his life? Jesus. No wonder he's locked himself up. I dunno if talkin' to me is gonna make him feel better, considerin' what he said, but he should know that I ain't bothered by it, at least.

"Miss GLaDOS doesn't exactly have a normal sense of humor."

[techno_mancer]

GLaDOS don't have a sense of humor, period.

[hontobakabaka]

"No, she does. Its just very dark. I know, I directly synced up with her program the other day."

[techno_mancer]

Right. I'll be sure to avoid seeing it, if I can help it.

[hontobakabaka]

"The problem is right now her program is filling the psychological void in my head Omoikane filled and it will until I can resync with him. But since I'm trying to repair her systems I can't do that right now. So... Its probably best if I let Scott have his space, but you don't have to worry about that."

[techno_mancer]

Yeaaaah you oughta fix that real fast.

[hontobakabaka]

"It shouldn't take more than a month or so to fix her program."

[techno_mancer]

A whole month? … Do ya need help?
