o3 :: Gathering

[ video ]
Attention all Lucetians! Or is it Lucetese... Lucetijin? Luce-- [ She cuts herself off, then puts a hand on her forehead for a moment before looking back up at the screen. She's surprisingly close to the book, so most of what you can see is, in fact, her face. ]

Anyway, that part isn't important. I need to know if anyone's good with building minor electronics? I want walkie-talkies that are handmade so that I can reach people across Luceti on our own frequency.

[ She's crosses her arms, leaning back. She's obviously sitting somewhere and this time she's definitely got her headband and a school uniform on. ]

Other than that, I've got more of a philosophical question.. or maybe existential? Some hard to answer topic. If they can erase our memories of the past few days then what do we have to prove any of our memories are real?

Underground.

So... you're going to ask them to make an underground building. [This other Yuri is going to think they're nuts.]

It's going to be like Guild was, except maybe with some cooler things. I'm going to have to figure out security measures that don't kill people though, just trap them. Like a quicksand pit that has a bottom but keeps moving so that you can't get out, tranquilizer darts that come out of the walls...

Tranquilizer darts sound like a bit much... [Kind of painful, too..]

And who exactly are you trying to trap? [Sorry for all the questions, Yuri. He's trying to figure things out..]

It's just tranquilizers to make sure that we knock them unconscious instead of lasers or something. [ You remember the lasers, Otonashi. ]

Kidnapping droids, anyone we accidentally piss off, anyone trying to sneak in. If someone wants to come into our headquarters, they'd better be a member or have a guest pass. It'd be pretty cool if we could get a finger-printer or some kind of retinal scan huh?

[...hnnnng the lasers..

He sighs.] Don't you think this is a bit too much, Yuri?

Have you been kidnapped by those droids before, Otonashi?

No. [Thankfully.] But those traps could end up hurting people who aren't them. If you can find a way to make them only activate when the droids are there, then it's fine, but... otherwise, I don't think it's a good idea.

[Plus tranquilizer darts are not going to work on robots. :|]

That's why we're only going to use things that knock out instead of kill! Or should I just find ways to trap them? I don't want to break the robots, if we can capture one and have somebody who knows how to work them we could reprogram it...

[...siiigh.] I guess that's better than knocking people out or killing them, at least. What kind of traps though?

Quick sand with a bottom so it only covers up to their chins, or some kind of electric field that would fry robot circuits but isn't powerful enough to screw with humans.. maybe?

That doesn't sound too bad then. As long as it's not going to hurt any of the residents here.

...Also, uh... Sorry for all the questions, but I have one last one.

It's fine, I've been asking everyone way too many questions lately, so answering some is good!

In that case... I guess my question is, what exactly are you planning on doing with the SSS? You're trying to get us out of here, right? There are some people here who don't want to leave though. [Some people who are dead and won't return to something like the afterlife, too.]

I'm not going to force everyone to leave. If you want to stay here, that's fine. You don't even have to leave if you're in the SSS and just want to help the rest of us out.

[ She pauses. Naoi and Otonashi both told her they were going to disappear after this. She spoke with some other people who had passed away too, but... ]

If you and Naoi want to stay here I won't stop you. Once we find the way out it'll be regardless of what the Malnosso want us to do, not because they're sick of us and want to get rid of us, so you'll have that choice then.

[...He's really not sure whether or not he wants to leave. It's a nice way to have a second shot at life, but at the same time, it's not like he didn't accept the life he already had or anything. And then there's always Kanade waiting for him back there... He'll just have to figure that out when the time comes.]

...Alright. I just wanted to make sure.

I won't make anyone leave. [ She pauses. ] You already know I wasn't going to stop you from helping everyone disappear, why would I make everyone stay? It's almost like you guys make me out to be a bad guy sometimes~ [ She says it teasingly, but it's KINDA TRUE A LITTLE... ]

[Oh wow. You're making him feel kinda guilty here, Yuri...! Which is why he's nervously laughing now...]

Haha, that's not it at all, really...!

Sure, sure~ Anyway, I don't care. [ Moving along. ] Want to be second in command?

[woah what..]

...Huh? Isn't that Hinata's job though? [I mean, even if Hinata isn't here...]

Does it look like he's here?

[ HInata seems to take orders from Otonashi, too. ]

Well, no, but... Are you sure it's all right for me to just take his position like that?

[I mean really...]

Hinata and Naoi both followed you despite Hinata having started the SSS with me, and you see a lot of things that I don't. [ She's not exactly used to being humble like this, so you'd better not say anything about it, Otonashi!! Or it'll never happen again 8| ] Even if I'm leading, I need someone who's going to look at people for what they are and what they need rather than just the goal. If you don't want to, just say so and I'll figure someone else out.

[Fine fine...! He won't say anything! Though he is a little taken aback by it. But... it really wouldn't hurt to be in that position... at least then he can make sure everyone and everything is running smoothly.]

Nah, that's fine. If it's really all right, then I don't mind doing it. [he'd be honored..!]
