Aww, Sollux's first power outage

[viru2alert.livejournal.com]

 Characters: Sollux and YOU!
Setting: Library, near computer terminals
Format: I'm going for prose, but will follow your lead.
Summary: Techie over here has his first power outage, and he's not happy about it.
Warnings: Language due to a very angry Sollux.



Sollux had never really had a power outage before. It never really happened to him, because frankly he doesn't trust his city's power grid and uses his own energy. Somehow. It's a sub-effect of apiculture networking, okay. So when the Tower's energy fizzles out, the annoyance he always feels when dealing with this aggravatingly primitive (and yet stubbornly resistant) computer terminal pretty much bubbles over.

"Dammit!" he yowled at the computer, pointedly ignoring the little 'Silence is Golden' plaque on the wall. (So ironic. Dave would be proud.)

OOC: YOU BET IT IS

"I'LL SHOW YOU MINE IF YOU SHOW ME YOURS!" This was actually slightly amusing, though he had been in the middle of something of DIRE importance on his own computer.

And he lost all of his work in the process. All five minutes of it. Whatever, nothing in this stupid tower involving technology looked very reliable anyways, so he couldn't rely on the power staying out for too terribly long. Did that even make sense? No, it didn't.

OOC: IT'S ON LIKE MULEBEAST KONG.

You are so lucky that Sollux hasn't caught up on that area of human childhood subculture. So lucky.

"WHERE ARE YOU, EVEN?" Seriously, this line of computer terminals just keeps going and going and going. So much effort spent on lame technology. If the whole place weren't so primitive (that is, resistant to his attempts), Sollux would probably take it upon himself to upgrade them all, if only because he can't stand the state they're in now.

OOC: GROSS.

"LIKE I'D TELL YOU, EVEN IF I KNEW THE FUCKING ANSWER." Yeah, he was lost as shit because this stupid library was huge as fuck and all the noises tended to echo, he couldn't even tell where this stupid guy's voice was coming from.

"HEY INSTEAD OF YELLING LIKE A LAZY FAT FUCK, WHY DON'T YOU DO SOMETHING TO, I DON'T KNOW, FIX THIS SHITTY TOWER'S POWER OR MAYBE LIGHT THE PLACE UP OR SOMETHING. SET THE WHOLE PLACE ON FIRE FOR ALL I CARE."

OOC: YOU MENTIONED IT BRO.

Dammit. Who the hell is this guy? (Where the hell is this guy? Freakin' echoes.)

"WELL FUCK, IF THE ENERGY GENERATOR AROUND HERE IS AS 'ADVANCED' AS THE COMPUTERS IT PROBABLY SET ITSELF ON FIRE ALREADY!"
