Test Log Twenty Two | Well there goes the moron

[getsciencedone]

[She'd woken up, seconds before she was about to spring her little surprise. Caroline wasn't amused. GLaDOS was even less amused when she realized she was stuck in this town again. Well at least she knew for sure she got her facility back. She was just going to go rub it in the moron's face when she realized....

Oh right. Phonecall time]

For anyone

A.

[prpl_assistant]

(Miss Pauling's heading over to visit GLaDOS after she heard that the AI was back in Mayfield. It's not surprising to her to see all the turrets on the front lawn either.)

Hello Miss GLaDOS. Hello turrets.

[getsciencedone]

Hello Miss. Pauling.

[There's a few chiming hello's, hi! I see you. Target locked from the various turrets on the ground.]

[prpl_assistant]

(Ooo, those turrets are locking in on her.)

I...don't suppose this is a bad time for me to drop by, is it?

[getsciencedone]

Not really. As long as you don't mind me working.

[They are but sadly for them, they don't have any ammo at the moment.]

[hontobakabaka]

[Ruri sits in class, doing her homework, but she does peer up]

Do you think he's in a decaying orbit and will burn up on reentry, or will just float into infinity till his power cell dies?

[getsciencedone]

[Glances up.]

I don't know. They both sound like fitting ends.

Power care most likely. Or insanity. The space core is up there with him after all.

[hontobakabaka]

Perhaps he'll float towards the sun for a few centuries then burn up. It sounds like he deserved something like that.

Space core? One of those things that they used on you?

[getsciencedone]

Yes. One of the corrupted cores they threw away. He's obsessed with going to space. It's all he ever talked about.....ever.

Phone

[duck_duck_laser]

...when you say AI, how... broadly are you defining that?

[The voice on the other end of the line is cautious.]

[getsciencedone]

Very broadly I suppose.

[duck_duck_laser]

...how about an artificial humanoid that was originally designed and programmed for combat, and then refitted for more generic use after.... er, a bunch of things happened?

[It's offered brightly! And then, more sourly:]

And then turned into a human after getting sent to this stupid town.

[getsciencedone]

[There's a grin that you can't see on the other line.]

Oh yes, that fits in quite well with my definition.

[phone]

[perfectvoice]

I'm a Vocaloid!

[aka singing robot]

[phone]

[getsciencedone]

And what would that be?

[phone]

[perfectvoice]

I was made for singing. Of course, I'm the most popular Vocaloid!

[getsciencedone]

Oh right. Someone else mentioned those.

Was that all you were created for?

[phone]

[vitalizes]

I broke a toaster once.

I thought I could'a made grilled cheese in it but th'cheese melted into da mechanical parts and it never worked again.

And ya wouldn't believe how bad the kitchen smelled afterward. Aw man, Ma was pissed.

[getsciencedone]

Fascinating.

I'm sure you've damaged plenty of machines in your times.

[vitalizes]

Uh, well, aside from th'toaster

And a television, though dat was completely by accident, honest ...

I've damaged lotsa dispensers, teleporters, and sentries.

[getsciencedone]

It sounds like you need a new hobby.
