Characters: Sollux Captor and open
Setting: Starting in room 2-06, but you can assume he's wandering the halls anywhere, since he'll go out exploring.
Format: I'll follow your lead.
Summary: Sollux has just arrived (~~again~~) and he's confused and Unhappy about it.
Warnings: None yet.

Sollux didn't remember falling asleep, but he definitely remembered waking up. He fought the sleep paralysis for the full thirty seconds, and then shot up from the bed the moment his eyes opened, his teeth bared in a snarl.

He'd been dreaming...something. Something bad. He always woke up badly when he dreamed about his own death, but the specifics were fading like wisps of fog in the morning, and he couldn't be sure if it was a vision or not. The voices were sure loud, though. Fuck were they loud.

He was distracted from the question of the dream, though, as he looked around the unfamiliar room in confusion. "What the actual fuck?"

[This calls for a 2x brofist combo. One for each half troll]

That'th my life. Right there. Only in my univerthe, kk ith shitty at coding, and doethn't build anything.

[ they will just follow your lead there, bro. ]

He'th good with hith handth and shit. It'th jutht that he ith not blethhed like uth.

Yeah, I bet you're apeshit bananath with mechanical shit. But I can't believe you don't know what computerth are. Come on. Time to get thchoolfed.

[He gestures for them to follow and heads for the stairs]

[ they share glances, but don't say anything. they'll follow along. ]

[And he leads them down the stairs, down down down, to the library level where the computers are. He sits down, grimacing]

Thith ith a computer. I mean, it'th a shitty computer. But it ITH a computer.

[ and they're looking at it. they used it before, but... they never caught what it was. ]

You mean the thing we can communicate on?

Yeah! You didn't know what thith wath called?

Nope.

Did you really believe that we would? Coming from the world that we do?

I don't know what your world ith really like, though. [He shrugs] You have machineth, tho you could have computerth.

And we don't know what yourth ith like to make a good comparithon.

Well, it doethn't matter. [He shrugs and smiles] You now know what a computer ith. And if you need help with anything to do with it, or your thylladekth or anything like that, you know who to come to.

Thylladekth?

...You don't have one of thothe either? [He thought they grew up on Skaia in the game, so he just assumed they would use the same mechanics as he did.

He waves a hand and a few dozen cards spring into bring over his head. It's empty right now, unfortunately.]

I keep all my thtuff in thethe.

[ staring. so much staring. how the... out of thing air? ]

What the fuck? How did you do that?

[He touches one of the cards and quickly hacks the code to get what was inside. It was a spare shirt, and he grins as it falls into his hands]

Yup, thee? You don't have thith, I'm guethhing. It'th a thylladekth. All of uth from my univerthe have one.

Tho it'th jutht a fanthy thorage devithe?

Weiiiird.

[It's so much a part of his life that he never really thought about it before. After a moment, he shrugs] It'th a fucking amathing thtorage devithe. You have all your shit with you, and it doethn't weigh a thing.

[ Pollux reaches out to take a look at a card! ]

[Go ahead and take it. It weighs a fucktonne when you grab the card]
