[22:27:58] * Randal braces himself
[22:28:12] * Cerbero assumes a defensive stance
[22:28:44] <Little_Brown_Box> Whaaahaaaa!
[22:29:12] <>Ambiance<> There is a very mild sensation of movement and the abode ceases to be there and a large grassy area takes it's place
[22:29:32] <Little_Brown_Box> Roadtrip! Roadtrip! Roadtrip!
[22:29:32] <Eitak_Razal> I don't think I'm ever gonna get used to that...
[22:29:35] <GenocideDoll> "Are we allive?"
[22:29:36] <>Ambiance<> The transition is completely mild and without incident or side effect
[22:29:41] <Little_Brown_Box> Whoo-hoo!
[22:29:43] <Rimblade> "Good heavens. That was mild and without incident."
[22:29:48] <Cerbero> Now that was nicer that mi last time.
[22:29:52] <Little_Brown_Box> Look, Rim!
[22:29:54] <Eitak_Razal> I had that same Feeling Rim.
[22:29:54] <Little_Brown_Box> NO HANDS!
[22:29:56] <Little_Brown_Box> Wheee!
[22:29:58] <Cerbero> My last time involved nauseas...
[22:30:08] * TaloToecan bounces on the balls of his feet as he glances about their transition point.
[22:30:13] * Randal breathes out and looks about, immediately getting dizzy
[22:30:18] <Eitak_Razal> It almost always causes Nausea
[22:30:20] * Damsel smiles faintly. "Why can't all our transitions go that smoothly?"
[22:30:22] <Randal> "I hate.. planar travel."
[22:30:32] <Aaronrules380> Wow this has to be the best transition I've ever been in
[22:30:32] * Rimblade grabs the box, and hefts it up.
[22:30:34] <Cerbero> As if i loved it
[22:30:34] * Almond fades in
[22:30:42] * Almond stumbles forward
[22:30:44] <TaloToecan> "Alas, not all our transits take quite so long to prepare either, Shayril."
[22:30:45] <Almond> Woah...
[22:30:47] <Little_Brown_Box> Whee!
[22:30:51] * Elenor fades in, sighing and muttering "I am so going to regret this"
[22:30:58] * LordBarrius nods his agreement with Damsel, then glances around to assess things a bit.
[22:31:00] <Cerbero> You wont, trust me.
[22:31:02] <Computer> Transition here was carefully programmed to appear as normal. You seem to have simply matter transmitted to this location from planetary orbit
[22:31:04] <Cerbero> We are here for you.
[22:31:18] * Randal picks up the computer
[22:31:23] <Rimblade> "Right, box! You're going to be my detector device. Any time any thing happens, and I have just cause to hide, tell me."
[22:31:24] <GenocideDoll> "No, we're here for Arden."
[22:31:41] <Cerbero> It was an expression.
[22:31:46] * Elenor sighs.
[22:31:49] <Randal> "Good. Where is the most likely location for us to proceed to, to find the technology we need?"
[22:31:54] <Aaronrules380> He means we'll help keep her sae
[22:31:58] * GenocideDoll wonders how its functioning on a magicless world.
[22:32:06] <Little_Brown_Box> Righto, Rimblade!
[22:32:14] * Cerbero makes sure he still has his daggers
[22:32:15] <Little_Brown_Box> Er...
[22:32:21] <Little_Brown_Box> Is oxygen just cause to hide?
[22:32:27] <Cerbero> No,
[22:32:28] * Elenor Cerbero gave 3 of them to Ele.
[22:32:29] <Little_Brown_Box> 'cause there's a lot of it.
[22:32:49] <Computer> I am currently attempting to negotiate the local variant of CentralNet and the TechWeb to isolate that information but am doing so purely via public channels so as to not raise suspicion
[22:33:03] <Rimblade> "Is it, ah, evil oxigen?"
[22:33:05] <Randal> "good. Keep on that."
[22:33:10] <Cerbero> Are you redirecting?
[22:33:19] <Little_Brown_Box> Don't think so. Nobody's coughed up a lung yet.
[22:33:21] <Randal> "we dont want to alert anyone. as far as anyone is concerned we wish to simply accomplish what we are here fore, and move on."
[22:33:23] * Aaronrules380 waits and listens and looks over the suroundings
[22:33:26] <Damsel> "Quite wise."
[22:33:33] <Little_Brown_Box> So...
[22:33:39] * Randal looks about, in case we have to move for transit
[22:33:45] <Little_Brown_Box> Should we stop standing around like a bunch of boobs?
[22:33:46] * TaloToecan tilts his head to one side. "Computer, you have leeway to utilize any further capacity based upon my mental capability of mechanical nature to aid such a search function."
[22:33:52] <Computer> It appears that a central database of all technocratic technology is held on a space station in orbit of earth in such a matter to always be behind the moon. The station is called Autocathonia
[22:33:53] <Little_Brown_Box> And, like, look like we're doing something?
[22:34:16] <Randal> "And a good location to acess such, for instance, a research medical facility?"
[22:34:16] <Eitak_Razal> So we have to steal a shuttle and fly there?
[22:34:23] <Damsel> "The moon? Interesting."
[22:34:29] <Rimblade> "Box! Steal me a shuttle!"
[22:34:31] <Randal> "No, Eitak, if its a database, its acessed elsewhere."
[22:34:31] <Elenor> fly... to the moon?
[22:34:38] <Eitak_Razal> Good
[22:34:40] <Computer> Said space station is a major reasearch labratory as well specializing in "medical" tech
[22:34:49] <Little_Brown_Box> Er...
[22:34:50] <Rimblade> "Oh lord."
[22:34:52] <Randal> "Is there any public transit to that location?"
[22:34:52] <silversyte> hmmm
[22:34:56] <Little_Brown_Box> Oh...kay?
[22:34:57] <Almond> Uhm... mister computer? Can't you just connect to it from here?
[22:35:00] <Rimblade> "Translation- space zombies."
[22:35:01] <Cerbero> These people's concept of medicine is slicing people open
[22:35:10] <Little_Brown_Box> WHERE?!
[22:35:11] <Randal> "would you all calm down?"\\
[22:35:18] <Little_Brown_Box> I'd rather not, thanks.
[22:35:21] <Computer> Negative but several possibilities exist for being sent there.
[22:35:23] <silversyte> thats my type of medicine
[22:35:33] <TaloToecan> "Sadly, Randal, this is more the norm with them. Which is typically problematic, as I am sure you realize."
[22:35:34] <Little_Brown_Box> Can't we access the information from here?
[22:35:35] <Little_Brown_Box> Eh?
[22:35:36] <Little_Brown_Box> EH?
[22:35:43] <Eitak_Razal> I don't want to be a Interworld Criminal.
[22:35:44] <Cerbero> Box, i can assure you that discretion will be vital today
[22:35:52] <Little_Brown_Box> Right.
[22:35:57] <Randal> "What posibiliites?"
[22:35:58] <Cerbero> Yes, right.
[22:35:58] <Damsel> "What possibilities are there, Computer?"
[22:36:00] <Little_Brown_Box> So, why don't you stop breathing, Cerb?
[22:36:06] <Computer> 1) We are arrested and found to violate the local paradigm. Indicators suggest that in mild cases we would simply be reprogrammed but if our nature itself was shown to be at variance we would be sent there for analysis and alteration
[22:36:06] <Little_Brown_Box> Draw less attention that way.
[22:36:10] * silversyte puts silencer on pistol
[22:36:11] * Cerbero sighs
[22:36:19] <TaloToecan> "Unacceptable."
[22:36:24] <TaloToecan> "Next option?"
[22:36:24] <Randal> "Thats out of the question."
[22:36:25] <Eitak_Razal> Now way
[22:36:26] <Rimblade> "Possibly acceptable."
[22:36:31] * Aaronrules380 is staying silent and continuing survaillnce
[22:36:31] <Eitak_Razal> I don't want to be a Interworld Criminal.
[22:36:42] <Cerbero> so if we display features that are not of this world... we are sent to the base
[22:36:47] * LordBarrius rolls his eyes a bit. "Hm. If you desired discretion, the box shouldn't have come to begin with." His tone seems to suggest it was only half jokingly.
[22:36:48] <Almond> I don't want to be reprogrammed...
[22:36:51] <Computer> 2) I attempt to forge credentials identifying us as technocratic officials and scientists
[22:36:52] * Damsel glaces at Rimblade and shakes her head slightly.
[22:36:53] * Almond winces
[22:37:03] <Randal> "With this group of idiots, i'd perfer not to."
[22:37:04] <Eitak_Razal> That Might work.
[22:37:06] <Little_Brown_Box> Ooh.
[22:37:07] <Cerbero> That would be hard
[22:37:09] <Little_Brown_Box> Great way to get caught!
[22:37:12] <Little_Brown_Box> NEXT!
[22:37:13] <Randal> "idiots."
[22:37:16] <Elenor> I doubt everyone is proficient in subterfuge
[22:37:19] <GenocideDoll> "Erm... Us? Make something right?"
[22:37:24] <Aaronrules380> Yeah, I think we'd be caught
[22:37:24] <Computer> 3) I employ 1 to get us transited but upon that transit alter records to match 2) thus avoiding the scrutiny of either condition
[22:37:25] <GenocideDoll> "Nope, not viable."
[22:37:29] <TaloToecan> "That may be problematic on the whole given our number, but potential."
[22:37:35] <GenocideDoll> "... I LIKE that one."
[22:37:37] * Eitak_Razal blinks
[22:37:47] <Randal> "we are merely trying to find technology to aid our friend. is there a legal way to purchase or identify such technology?"
[22:37:48] <Almond> "Uhm... would they notice us being transited?"
[22:37:51] <Cerbero> I LOVE that one.
[22:37:53] <Rimblade> "Hmmm. Could be tricky, but it's perfectly acceptable."
[22:37:54] <Almond> "Or that we transited at all?"
[22:37:55] <Little_Brown_Box> ...is there a four?
[22:37:58] * TaloToecan ponders. "What is the risk of detection of such alterations?"
[22:37:59] <Cerbero> Yes,
[22:38:03] <Cerbero> Getting caught
[22:38:13] <Eitak_Razal> Is somehitng that doesn't involve crime?
[22:38:17] <Elenor> Humm, are there any other possible options?
[22:38:18] * Cerbero grins
[22:38:20] <Computer> Given the number of individuals transited at any given time slim
[22:38:37] <Randal> "Is there a legal way, as i asked?"
[22:38:39] <silversyte> why dont we go in squads
[22:38:40] <Damsel> "So no matter what, we must take some sort of risk."
[22:38:47] <Cerbero> As usual.
[22:38:52] <Eitak_Razal> I say half go way one, those of us who can be sneaky, do two
[22:38:53] <Computer> 4) Attempt to piggy back on another transit and insert us with that streme without documentation of anysort
[22:38:55] <TaloToecan> "Your programming is that far beyond their security routines and record-check subroutines?"
[22:39:05] <Randal> "My god, will you all show some common sense?"
[22:39:14] <Randal> "We want to do this WITHOUT upsetting the system of this planet."
[22:39:23] <Randal> "stop working on infiltration methods, if there is another way."
[22:39:25] <Rimblade> "Oh, the system of this planet I don't mind."
[22:39:26] <Eitak_Razal> I like number 4. But add in number 2 and we might have a plan
[22:39:37] <Rimblade> "I just mind dying whilst doing so."
[22:39:43] <Computer> However this last is problematic because additional load might be detected while change of nature of load would not. In additon even should we arrive there undetected we would be complete nonentities to their systems
[22:39:47] <Aaronrules380> Is it likely we will get caught through 4?
[22:40:05] <Eitak_Razal> Yes.
[22:40:07] <LordBarrius> "I haven't heard of an option that allows for us to just walk right up to the door, knock, and ask politely without risk, Randal."
[22:40:09] <Aaronrules380> I'll take that as a yes
[22:40:10] <silversyte> so they wouldnt notice us
[22:40:11] <Cerbero> Very.
[22:40:17] <Randal> "well, We havent asked."
[22:40:21] <Computer> If I employed 2 at that point the computer would not question our identity but it WOULD question how we came there without ever being sent
[22:40:29] * TaloToecan turns to Randal. "Computer, if any purely legal options are availible, list those options next. Otherwise, Randal, I suppose we are straight out of luck."
[22:40:30] <Elenor> It's not like we have any local currency to purchase it with, correct?
[22:40:43] <Little_Brown_Box> Eheehe.
[22:40:46] <Little_Brown_Box> Elenor?
[22:40:53] <Little_Brown_Box> Wonder why I'm called Counterfeit?
[22:40:54] <Little_Brown_Box> Ehehehehe.
[22:40:55] <Rimblade> "NO."
[22:40:56] <Cerbero> Not everything is purchased with money.
[22:41:02] <Rimblade> "No counterfeiting."
[22:41:05] <Almond> ...!
[22:41:08] <Eitak_Razal> I don't mind breaking a few laws... Just don't like getting caught
[22:41:10] <Little_Brown_Box> Aw!
[22:41:11] <Rimblade> "That'll get me killed."
[22:41:11] <Computer> Option 1 is purely legal
[22:41:12] <Randal> "we do have acess to a omnidimensional credit card."
[22:41:17] <Randal> "restate option one"
[22:41:21] <Almond> Computer, couldn't we just buy the technology we need?
[22:41:24] <Eitak_Razal> But we would have to get arrested first
[22:41:25] <Computer> 1) We are arrested and found to violate the local paradigm. Indicators suggest that in mild cases we would simply be reprogrammed but if our nature itself was shown to be at variance we would be sent there for analysis and alteration
[22:41:26] * Damsel breaks into soft, ironic, laughter.
[22:41:29] <Elenor> Okay, so we do have some money?
[22:41:35] <Rimblade> "That sounds pretty good to me."
[22:41:37] <Almond> We could make some.
[22:41:43] <Rimblade> "Listen, before we go ANYWHERE..."
[22:41:52] <Little_Brown_Box> Give me your wallets to hold on to!
[22:41:55] <Rimblade> "Perhaps we ought to have some ground rules."
[22:41:56] * Almond grins. "Or maybe thief some. Or use diplomacy."
[22:41:58] <Randal> "our nature surely is at paradigm. What unique laws are there here that violate common sense?"
[22:41:59] <Little_Brown_Box> Oh.
[22:42:00] <Little_Brown_Box> That too.
[22:42:00] <Cerbero> so... if we do Nº1, i would have to be the one whose nature shows to be at variance...
[22:42:03] <Rimblade> "Ground rules of behaviour, and dialogue."
[22:42:14] * TaloToecan sighs and shakes his head, understanding at least in part what humor Damsel sees, but getting entirely too frustrated by the uncontrolled lot.
[22:42:16] <Rimblade> "Because otherwise, we'll just be a rather obvious babbling mob."
[22:42:22] <Randal> "If we violate a law that is against our normal common sense, and protest such, it could work most easily."
[22:42:35] <Randal> In addition, i propose a group stays behind, as rescue if possible, or just in case."
[22:42:39] <Elenor> ... I've imbued myself with magic, for various reasons..
[22:42:40] <Randal> "complete the mission otherwise."
[22:42:49] <Computer> Magic of anysort not strictly controlled by the paradigm, Lycanthropy, vamparism, Living Curses given flesh
[22:42:55] <silversyte> ill stay back as rescue
[22:43:00] <Eitak_Razal> Oh thats easy to do
[22:43:06] <Almond> what about adaptive magic?
[22:43:07] <Eitak_Razal> Just show them the frog.
[22:43:08] <Aaronrules380> I'll go do it
[22:43:08] <Cerbero> What if the mission group succeeds and the rescue group is caught?
[22:43:09] <Randal> "right. Thats wher you come in Elenor."
[22:43:14] * LordBarrius grins without humor. "Amusing. The legal option involves arrest, and the illegal ones are potentially just as deadly with such an untame collective....we face a poor scenario regardless, it seems."
[22:43:17] <Elenor> What?
[22:43:18] <Randal> "Can you cast a flashing lights spell. to entertain a child?"
[22:43:23] <Cerbero> I believe that those who stay are taking a higher risk
[22:43:24] <Randal> "pretty much, goodsir."
[22:43:28] <Elenor> Humph, easily.
[22:43:30] <Randal> "Indeed they are."
[22:43:30] <Almond> I could, I guess...
[22:43:33] <Elenor> Well.. i don't know about here...
[22:43:34] * TaloToecan nods to LordBarrius. "Quite so, Brother, quite so."
[22:43:35] <Aaronrules380> I could
[22:43:44] <Eitak_Razal> THose who stay should be able to blend in.
[22:43:54] <silversyte> i like taking risks
[22:44:01] * Damsel sighs softly and looks out across the landscape.
[22:44:01] <Almond> Uhm... computer?
[22:44:02] <silversyte> i can blend in
[22:44:02] * Eitak_Razal smiles thinly.
[22:44:03] <Randal> "so im betting the truth is best here. Actually tell them we're from another realm once arrested."
[22:44:09] <Almond> Could we hire a mercenary to break in for us?
[22:44:11] <GenocideDoll> "I'm a living curse, what should I do?"
[22:44:20] <Little_Brown_Box> We go candidly?
[22:44:23] <Little_Brown_Box> Ask for help?
[22:44:24] <Eitak_Razal> Be yourself
[22:44:25] <Computer> Evem the legal option would require a violation once we arrive. Either by breaking out, hacking in directly, or employing option 2 at that juncture
[22:44:25] <Little_Brown_Box> Er...
[22:44:29] <Little_Brown_Box> How many favors to we already owe?
[22:44:31] * Rimblade gives up, and wanders away a touch, observing the landscape.
[22:44:36] <Little_Brown_Box> Gah!
[22:44:38] <Randal> "I'm fine with that, at this point."
[22:44:40] <Eitak_Razal> Can we do it without getting caught.
[22:44:43] <Computer> Though the last would be far more effective if we did it with the timing of option 3
[22:44:44] * Little_Brown_Box is carried off as Rimblade meanders away.
[22:44:51] <Aaronrules380> So that would be option 3
[22:45:03] <Randal> Computer, calculate which one has the highest probability of success?"
[22:45:18] <Almond> ...given the group here.
[22:45:26] <Damsel> "Well done, Randal."
[22:45:26] <Randal> "indeed. given the group here."
[22:45:42] <Little_Brown_Box> Heyas, Rim? Whatcha thinkin'?
[22:45:46] <GenocideDoll> "Seriously, can't be be sane?"
[22:45:52] <GenocideDoll> "Just while we save Arden?"
[22:46:10] <GenocideDoll> "Wait, did I just say... That...?"
[22:46:13] <Rimblade> "I think that we're going to die if we keep up like this."
[22:46:25] <Little_Brown_Box> Ooh. Heh. Buzzkill, innit?
[22:46:29] <Computer> There exists an option 5 but it is difficult
[22:46:34] <Cerbero> State it
[22:46:37] <Computer> Though purely legal
[22:46:40] <silversyte> whats that now?
[22:46:43] <Randal> "sure go ahead."
[22:46:44] <Elenor> Humm?
[22:46:47] <Little_Brown_Box> Yeah, we need to take turns talking before somebody says something silly.
[22:46:47] <Cerbero> Provide details.
[22:46:49] <Randal> "and baring that, we go with option one. And i murder one of you."
[22:46:52] <Romulus> Legal things are what would be best.
[22:47:05] * Elenor hopes Randal was joking.
[22:47:17] <Rimblade> "Damn straight. Box. Whoops, there's me now."
[22:47:21] <Cerbero> the Computer never said that it was not the riskiest one.
[22:47:29] <Romulus> It's legal.
[22:47:41] <Computer> Legitimately becomed ranked technocrats by navigating the system. Upon gaining the neccesary auhority take the technology and transit back to Caelestia using the difference in timelines to arrive back shortly after departure
[22:47:41] <Cerbero> That doesnt imply safety
[22:47:41] <Little_Brown_Box> So...shall we be stealthy ninja-monkies for the rest of the gallavant?
[22:47:59] <Cerbero> That would take us years...
[22:48:07] * Almond pauses thoughtfully.
[22:48:10] * Romulus sighs
[22:48:13] * Rimblade considers.
[22:48:14] <Computer> Probably
[22:48:17] <silversyte> only for idiots
[22:48:18] * Little_Brown_Box says nothing! NOTHING I tell you!
[22:48:18] <Randal> "whats the fastest way to become a ranked technocrat?"
[22:48:20] <Computer> It would be undetectable however
[22:48:23] <Elenor> Is there any way to do that in a reasonable time frame?
[22:48:24] <Cerbero> and would imply some of the option 2: getting IDs
[22:48:30] <GenocideDoll> "Erm... How'bout we just steel the mother computer and run away."
[22:48:31] <Damsel> "Intersting.... I find that acceptable, actually."
[22:48:32] <Computer> And completely legitimate in every sense
[22:48:42] <Almond> I could do it... I wouldn't mind that much...
[22:48:43] <Computer> Would require no additional effort on our parts
[22:48:45] <Elenor> I'm not staying here for years.
[22:48:48] <Almond> Would this place become my home, then?
[22:48:54] <Computer> Would require no subterfuge
[22:48:59] <Cerbero> I am not willing o remain here that long.
[22:49:04] <TaloToecan> "That sounds quite the extended campaign. Computer, query, who best among our number is capable of sustaining such a drive with assumed assistance in decision making from yourself and evaluate the chance of success on the top three individuals from such an analysis."
[22:49:07] <Randal> "How long are we talking here, computer?"
[22:49:13] <Computer> Relative to Caelestia you would be gone for moments not years
[22:49:30] <Randal> "and to here?"
[22:49:40] <GenocideDoll> "I estimate six million."
[22:49:41] <Cerbero> but we would age anyways, and we would change... not neccesarially for good...
[22:49:41] <Computer> As long as it takes. Months likely years probably
[22:49:53] <GenocideDoll> "We have Cerbero here."
[22:49:57] <Almond> I've always filled in gaps in my understanding with magic. I would love to supplement that with solid technological understanding.
[22:50:07] * Little_Brown_Box fidgits a bit on Rimblade's shoulder, wanting to speak, but also wanting to be the best darn ninja-monkey it can be.
[22:50:08] <Eitak_Razal> I'm not ageing here...
[22:50:17] <Almond> I might need to grow up a bit faster than I wanted to... but I could certainly manage.
[22:50:19] <Cerbero> What do you mean by that...?
[22:50:23] <Eitak_Razal> I'd rather spend time in a time freeze
[22:50:24] <Randal> "I have nowhere else to go."
[22:50:25] <Aaronrules380> I doubt I could do it
[22:50:34] * Elenor is absolutely and completely terrified at the prospect of spending that much time here.
[22:50:46] <GenocideDoll> "Erm... How could I escape detection for years?"
[22:50:46] <Computer> Failure to age would be a noted violation of paradigm
[22:50:48] * Cerbero is even more
[22:50:55] <Elenor> If that's going to happen.. Computer, can you send some people back?
[22:50:55] <GenocideDoll> "I'm a walking doll."
[22:51:00] <Rimblade> "Talo, could you repeat your wonderful question?"
[22:51:04] <Cerbero> so we would skip straight to option one
[22:51:14] <Aaronrules380> or option 3
[22:51:15] <Cerbero> that leaves option 5 out of the plan...
[22:51:18] <silversyte> ill stay and become a ligit one
[22:51:19] <Computer> You are not. Effectively here you are a bioandroid
[22:51:30] <Computer> Such is well within technological norms of this realm
[22:51:40] <GenocideDoll> "Ooh, that works."
[22:52:15] <Computer> Given security measures option 5 has the greatest change of success
[22:52:25] <silversyte> and i could contact you when i aquire the technology?
[22:52:28] <GenocideDoll> "Which has the least?"
[22:52:30] <TaloToecan> "Easily. My query is simple, I would like the Computer to evaluate who among us is best capable to fit the bill along the analyses that the Computer can run in order to become such a ranked technocrat, and evaluate from that analysis the chances of success among the top three such individuals. The scenario also assumes that the Computer assists those individuals in an advisement role."
[22:52:30] <Computer> as it does not involve me trying to subjigate the centralnet
[22:52:33] <Cerbero> But it is the one with the highest chance of resulting in trauma
[22:52:36] <Computer> Pure option 1
[22:52:48] <Randal> "Im for Number five personally."
[22:52:52] <Computer> Since in that instance how do we gain access instead of being experimented upon
[22:53:07] <GenocideDoll> "I'm for anything other then 1."
[22:53:18] <Elenor> They all scare the hell out of me.
[22:53:20] <Randal> "cant we just contact a medical facility on this planet?"
[22:53:21] <Eitak_Razal> I dislike 5.
[22:53:21] <TaloToecan> "Based upon such an analysis, I also have a further idea in order to lay down a more solid plan of action."
[22:53:22] * Little_Brown_Box whispers to Rimblade "Can we expect Tirlerion to not mess with us if we're here that long?"
[22:53:28] <silversyte> why dont some of stay and become ligit and the others go back and wait
[22:53:30] <Little_Brown_Box> He's only bound if we call the Abode our home.
[22:53:33] <Computer> though option 1 if done mildly and not sending us to Autocathonia might facilitate option 5
[22:53:34] <Little_Brown_Box> If we start living HERE...
[22:53:44] * Little_Brown_Box doesn't see the need to finish the thought.
[22:53:46] <Rimblade> "Don't be silly, Terlerion would never mess with me, because I'm amazing."
[22:53:47] * Cerbero places a hand in Elenor's shoulder 'Dont worry, we will live'
[22:53:47] <Randal> "Wait."
[22:53:49] * Rimblade crosses his fingers.
[22:53:52] <Randal> "Option five wont work after all."
[22:54:02] * TaloToecan turns towards Randal. "And why not?"
[22:54:04] <Randal> "If none of us present call the abode our home, then tirellion will ahve access."
[22:54:04] <Computer> Say for instance i install a fail safe mental snapshot in each of you. so that alterations done by the technocrats go dormant
[22:54:11] <Little_Brown_Box> HAH!
[22:54:12] <Little_Brown_Box> I WIN!
[22:54:12] <Eitak_Razal> Marrin
[22:54:13] * Elenor looks at Cerbero. I sure hope so. I don't want to die on this cursed world.
[22:54:15] <Little_Brown_Box> ...sorry.
[22:54:19] <Eitak_Razal> Marrin is still there
[22:54:29] <Computer> Then I hide and wait for your acceptance into the society and to reach the level.
[22:54:30] <Randal> "True. But he also does not call the abode his home."
[22:54:32] * Cerbero looks at Elanor 'I wont let you or anyone die¡
[22:54:44] <Damsel> "You can not take a leave of absence from your home?"
[22:54:48] <Computer> whereupon I reverse the technocrats effects by restoring the backup
[22:55:03] <Eitak_Razal> Wha?
[22:55:05] <Computer> Your access remains legitamate and in that case unquestioned
[22:55:15] <Eitak_Razal> I don't want to become an old woman here...
[22:55:21] <Cerbero> what are the chances of success in that plan, Computer?
[22:55:22] <Randal> "Right this is rediculous."
[22:55:23] <Computer> They will have no reason to suspect duplicity as you WILL be technocrats
[22:55:30] <Romulus> Right...
[22:55:31] <silversyte> ill will stay to become legit
[22:55:36] <Cerbero> what are the chances of successfully restoring the backups?
[22:55:43] <Rimblade> "I've always wanted to be a technocrat."
[22:55:54] <Elenor> I knew I shouldn't have came along.
[22:55:59] <Computer> The true you will remain calling the abode your home
[22:56:10] <GenocideDoll> "Hehehe."
[22:56:11] <Cerbero> Elenor, dont worry.
[22:56:16] <Cerbero> You did the right thing.
[22:56:24] <Cerbero> We are here to save a life.
[22:56:25] <Computer> only the technocratic forced alteration will vary
[22:56:32] <Elenor> Sure as hell doesn't feel like it.
[22:56:45] <Computer> Chance of restored personalities properly stored is 110 percent
[22:56:49] * TaloToecan nods, rationalizing the nature of it. "Computer, please run the earlier analysis among volunteers willing to carry out the extended nature of Option 5, and give chances of success under both original Option 5 and the altered plan recently proposed involving the mental backup and a mild Option 1."
[22:57:08] <Computer> Mu
[22:57:08] <silversyte> id gladly stay here
[22:57:15] * Randal chuckles
[22:57:19] <Romulus> As would I.
[22:57:25] <Cerbero> and what are the chances of successfuly storing the personalities?
[22:57:26] <Computer> Option 5 will break down if there exist weak links
[22:57:30] <Randal> "Store our personalities then.
[22:57:37] <Randal> "I dont trust most of the people here."
[22:57:47] <Damsel> "Weak links?"
[22:57:50] <Romulus> I can live here. This already resembles my home
[22:57:52] <Rimblade> "I shouldn't trust me, were I you."
[22:58:03] <Computer> Any present individuals not fully engaged would constitute possible discovered contradcitions
[22:58:03] <Cerbero> who says i do?
[22:58:34] <Cerbero> Computer, what are the chances of successfuly storing the personalities?
[22:58:37] <Damsel> "So all must remain then and contribute. It's not a partial or individual based decision, correct?"
[22:58:40] * Almond nods
[22:58:46] <Computer> 100 percent
[22:58:52] <Cerbero> Good...
[22:58:57] <Computer> Or else leave altogether Damsel
[22:58:59] * Cerbero is not sure id he meant that.
[22:59:00] * TaloToecan frowns slightly.
[22:59:07] <Elenor> You can send individuals back?
[22:59:07] <Randal> "then do it. We need a plan, and we need to move foward."
[22:59:12] <Randal> "inaction serves no one."
[22:59:34] * Little_Brown_Box whirrs a bit.
[22:59:36] <Cerbero> Elenor, that would require charging the spell again.
[22:59:38] <Computer> We cannot retain lose other then myself that offer possible avenues of manipulation
[22:59:47] <silversyte> so what will we do then
[22:59:48] <Computer> Option 5 has an added benefit
[22:59:48] <Cerbero> Dont worry, I'll protect you.
[22:59:51] * Little_Brown_Box tangibly heats up on Rimblade's shoulder, but not enough so to burn.
[22:59:57] * LordBarrius frowns slightly. "That could be complicated, but we are faced with little choice, if the desire is to completely avoid illegal manners."
[23:00:02] <silversyte> what benefit
[23:00:02] <Almond> I don't think you'll remember it, Cerebro.
[23:00:07] <Romulus> What is that benefit?
[23:00:14] <Almond> hmm?
[23:00:21] <Cerbero> State such benefit
[23:00:23] <Eitak_Razal> Whats taht...
[23:00:32] * TaloToecan raises an eyebrow while considering more drastic measures.
[23:00:45] <Computer> Say this world lacks the needed technology. If you are technocratic scientists you can be "directed" to research the needed technology yourself with basically limitless time and the limitless resources of this entire world
[23:00:45] <Aaronrules380> Some of us wont do it, so 5 doesn't seem good anymore
[23:00:57] <Randal> "Right. time for a vote."
[23:00:59] <Randal> "Im for five."
[23:01:05] <silversyte> so am i
[23:01:07] <TaloToecan> "I am as well."
[23:01:09] <Aaronrules380> option 3
[23:01:10] <Randal> "If anyone wishes to bail out here, you can all go to the nine hells."
[23:01:11] <GenocideDoll> "I'm for anything but 1."
[23:01:12] <Almond> So... we can invent the solution if it doesn't exist?
[23:01:13] <Almond> woah...
[23:01:16] <Elenor> ...
[23:01:18] * Little_Brown_Box beeps, much like a microwave, then exclaims "I'm ready for number 5!"
[23:01:20] <Cerbero> Computer, could you restate all options to clarify this?
[23:01:21] <Romulus> Option five.
[23:01:27] <Rimblade> "Five!"
[23:01:30] <Eitak_Razal> I can't do 5. I don't know if i can age outside my normal time line... I know full Chronosians can't but me...
[23:01:32] <Almond> Fiiiiive!
[23:01:33] <Randal> "Cerbero, its either break in somehow, or do this legally."
[23:01:35] <Aaronrules380> i one o us can't do 5 it all ails
[23:01:48] <Aaronrules380> (*fails)
[23:01:53] <Cerbero> Exactly
[23:02:33] <silversyte> come on whats a few years added, lets do this
[23:02:46] <Aaronrules380> I doubt elenor will do it, That's why I support number 3
[23:02:57] <Damsel> "Can those who do not age normally be made to appear as if they do, Computer?"
[23:03:06] <Cerbero> Computer, please restate options one to four
[23:03:08] <Elenor> I told you all I'd just be in your way, and sometimes I just hate being right.
[23:03:10] <TaloToecan> "There may be a manner to eliminate the nature of contradiction, if we decide to lay upon all hopes on a singular individual...IF such contradictions are based solely on the Memory of the existance of everyone here."
[23:03:23] * LordBarrius smiles faintly as Damsel asks the query he had wondered himself.
[23:03:26] <Cerbero> You were not right Elanor
[23:03:46] <Romulus> and what is the normal aging process
[23:03:49] <Aaronrules380> Taking a risk isn't a bad thing
[23:03:56] <Randal> "the next peron who asks for a restatement,.. i will silence."
[23:04:02] <Cerbero> ...
[23:04:03] <Computer> If you were discovered to age improperly they would alter your chronology untill you complied with norms
[23:04:39] <silversyte> Lets do this come on!
[23:04:44] <LordBarrius> "But the 'snapshots' would restore any such changes, yes?"
[23:04:47] <Damsel> "So it would not be considered a problem on the whole."
[23:04:50] <Cerbero> Wait...
[23:04:57] <Damsel> "Correct?"
[23:04:59] <Cerbero> werent the 'snaphots' merely mental?
[23:05:05] <Rimblade> "Well, death by old age ain't so bad."
[23:05:12] * Randal turns to damsel and Lordbarrius "We need a decision. What say you two?"
[23:05:20] <Eitak_Razal> If you mess with my Chronolgy, you'll tap my powers too
[23:05:29] <Eitak_Razal> Thats a risk I can't take!
[23:05:35] * Damsel glances at LordBarrius before turning back to Randal. "Five."
[23:05:43] <Randal> "Agreed. And i have an idea for that as well."
[23:05:46] <Eitak_Razal> 3.
[23:05:49] <silversyte> enough discussion yay or nay
[23:05:53] <Computer> Chronomancy is already known to this world
[23:05:57] <Randal> "Computer, can you leave someone here while leaving with the rest?"
[23:05:59] <Eitak_Razal> It is?
[23:06:20] <Computer> They use technological means like time machines and reality rewriters
[23:06:30] <Computer> But the effect is identical
[23:06:43] * LordBarrius considers a moment, then nods. "Aye, 5 it is for me as well, then."
[23:06:46] <Cerbero> So Eitak could pretend to use such technology
[23:06:52] <Cerbero> Wait!
[23:06:53] * Eitak_Razal nods
[23:06:54] <Little_Brown_Box> Alright, enough asking the computer about stuff we don't need to know!
[23:06:56] <Computer> Chronomancy masked to match paradigm
[23:06:56] <Cerbero> I have an Idea.
[23:06:57] <Little_Brown_Box> It's got us covered!
[23:07:03] <Rimblade> "Well, it seems we have a majority consensus."
[23:07:06] <Little_Brown_Box> Hit button number five and let's DO this!
[23:07:23] <Little_Brown_Box> This unit is getting cramped already. Less time here the better.
[23:07:29] <Little_Brown_Box> I want to be able to stretch out again.
[23:07:34] <Elenor> If you're all going to do the 5th... can some do the option with the backups?
[23:07:44] <Aaronrules380> the problem is we need EVERYONE to agree for 5 to work
[23:07:53] <Computer> No
[23:07:54] * TaloToecan has a thought. "Computer, scan on public channels if any obvious chronological analog of those present exists within this realm, indicitive of an Option 5 choice with an inclusive time-travel event backwards into the past, please?"
[23:07:55] <Cerbero> Eitak can pretend to be a Tehchnocrat and get us in!
[23:08:01] <Computer> I simply remove any who do not approve
[23:08:03] <Cerbero> after all she is a chronomancer
[23:08:06] <Romulus> if they have Reality Re-writers, can't we just gain access to one and re-write reality to say we have always been a Technocrat?
[23:08:19] <Cerbero> and she can pretend to use time manipulating technology
[23:08:22] <Elenor> Remove? Back to the abode?
[23:08:23] <Randal> "sounds like a plan. I'm willing to stay. However, I grow impatient."
[23:08:34] <Little_Brown_Box> C'mon, c'mon!
[23:08:35] <Computer> Affirmative
[23:08:37] <Little_Brown_Box> Let's go!
[23:08:41] <Elenor> Ah.
[23:08:47] <GenocideDoll> "I can stay, I seperated myself from myself."
[23:08:50] <Eitak_Razal> Waiting is for the paicent. Or those without parachutes..
[23:08:53] <Rimblade> "Wot ho!"
[23:08:55] <Aaronrules380> I'll stay then
[23:08:57] * Elenor brightens up at the thought of not being stuck here for years.
[23:09:03] <Randal> "fine then, lets do this already.'
[23:09:10] <Randal> "id be mroe than happy to loose those not dedicated."
[23:09:11] <Eitak_Razal> If we hide my not ageing...
[23:09:15] <silversyte> finally!
[23:09:21] * LordBarrius shakes his head slowly. "Please. It would be best."
[23:09:56] <GenocideDoll> "We're getting somewhere...~"
[23:10:08] <Computer> Am I instructed to engage option 5?
[23:10:21] <Little_Brown_Box> Randal, please say yes.
[23:10:26] <Little_Brown_Box> With EXTREME PREJUDICE!
[23:10:27] <Romulus> For our sakes.
[23:10:31] <silversyte> yes please
[23:10:36] <Randal> "i already said yes."
[23:10:45] <Computer> Engaging option 5
[23:10:45] <Damsel> "Indeed."
[23:10:46] <Rimblade> "Go forth, my hordes!"
[23:10:55] <Cerbero> what the?!
[23:10:58] * Eitak_Razal frowns
[23:11:01] <Cerbero> Elanor never agreed...
[23:11:06] <Cerbero> Nor did I
[23:11:12] <Eitak_Razal> Its majority Cerbero
[23:11:12] <Elenor> ...
[23:11:13] <silversyte> too late
[23:11:14] <>Ambiance<> Any who disapprove of option 5 are ejected silently from the Epic back to the abode as if never having left
