Rebel 1: Action!!

Characters: Makoto Nanaya and a buncha other doods (Psst, that's you guys.)
Setting: The Library (Floor 3), the Media Room (Floor 14) and Anywhere Else (SHARK. SHARK PARTY.)
Format: Aaaaction spam!!
Summary: Makoto does things. Mostly like exploring, experimenting and researching just wtf's going on. There might also be some shark punching and vidja games, but I'm sure everything's happening for a perfectly understandable and justifiable reason. Somewhere in there.
Warnings: Slight language, most likely. Will update.





Library

[Zip, zilch, nadda and nothing.

Who woulda guessed that neither Library would've contained a single damn text useful at all to the situation? Anyone? Show of hands? ... Yeah, her either, but at least the variety was nice - not to mention the peculiar removal of certain books and genres. Psychology, technology, astral projection... Plus History's been yoinked entirely? Seems kinda fishy, especially once you get on the network to do the math.

What math? Why, it's elementary!

If you can manage to piece together how these faulty machines work, filtering juicy details on the Network can be a snap - especially things that may have, y'know, kinda sorta maybe been "deleted" in the past. It's enough to make for one helluva freshman orientation that alleviates a lot of problems up-front, mainly in figuring out just what the hell's been going on as well as what's happened in the past... Particularly useful given last month's clusterfuck and the beefed up security that followed suit. Girl can't go around interviewing people without them giving you the stink eye - and how can you tell who's legit and who isn't in this place? There's just too many variables.

Anyhow, the important bit is that apparently these bodies are fake - which would explain the astral projection, and she's willing to bet all the pecans that History's not gone due to being the most boring subject on the planet, but the fact that something happened here that might be similar to what's apparently happened to her home. Maybe these Administrators are experimenting some sorta fix? Or.. they were. Until they got their jollies off on playing the world's most demented game of "Operation" on its inhabitants. W h u p s. At least the whole 'fake bodies' thing explains the lack of the technology and psychology sections as well.

Can't piece together this space whale bit, though. Which is what leaves her dumbfounded at the nearest network terminal, feet kicked up on a nearby pile of books]





Media Room

[No dig dug.

Y'know? She was only kidding about the dig-dug thing before. Hell, she's only REALLY played the game once and it's old as hell, but none of the classics are here! Or anything else recognizable, for the matter, but it could be worse. There's only so many times you can "HD TURBO REMIX EDITION" the same fighting games before they get stale - or you wanna put a controller through the TV because you JUST bought the same game last month -- but that's a story for another thread time.

S'ides, there's tons of other games here she's never even heard of! And creepy TV static aside, this floor wasn't so bad! Beats the hell outta the meat dimension or the room with all the blood and screaming ... Seriously, the heck's up with that? Bug a gaming squirrel?]





Anywhere Else

[Back in the day, Papa Makoto would go deep sea fishing when he wasn't too busy flexing his pecs in Momma's general direction. Naturally, being the oldest, wisest and most favored child in the Nanaya family, (not bias at all. nope.) Makoto got a few rare opportunities to see just what it was like to wrestle gigantic, near demonic sea-beasts to death with nothing but her bare hands, an acorn and a metric shitton of determination - a specific set of skills that she puts to use on the aquarium floor. Or rather, a set of skills she's already demonstrated, as Makoto can be found venturing back down through the floors quite literally dragging a gigantic shark corpse in tow.

The scariest part is that she doesn't look any worse for wear! That and this is apparently the most normal thing on the planet with how nonchalant she is about the whole thing.]

[Now, if Tohko actually thought you were a witch, that wouldn't happen. She would be asking you to teach her magic instead of blowing up like this.

..However, Tohko had good ears.]

I heard that! I'm being honest here! Honestly, it's a horrible stereotype that almost every female librarian is dirtier than the average woman! It's not true, and it doesn't make work easier!

It sounded like a bit of an insult to me. And while I didn't look at the internet much back home, since machines and I don't get along, I know what it's like to be stuck here in this Tower..but we have more worries on our hand than that. And like I said..there are some really wonderful books here that you could occupy yourself with.

[..Actually, for once, Tohko didn't take that comment the wrong way-or the right way-and smiled.]

Well, if you're sure there are, then let's look for them! What genres are you interested in? Or do you have a favorite author?

Well..while I don't read any comics, we do have quite a few science fiction novels. Who's your favorite author? Asimov? Ellison? Or maybe even Clarke?
