I also like that he goes to the truck instead of his room, that's a surprising bit of dedication.<br /><br />Morganna - 'count to one million' is such a great one liner :)<br /><br />That's a clever way of achieving what was required. I look forward to further interactions between the computer and Robbie - especially from Robbie's POV :DMarchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14952331166517430843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1149217012399643733.post-11762979657277175512015-04-06T19:36:05.256-07:002015-04-06T19:36:05.256-07:00Aaaahhhh! What in all the universe is going on? I ...Aaaahhhh! What in all the universe is going on? I am losing control of the display monitors and there's information coming from nowhere!!<br /><br />Okay. Calm down and count to one million.<br /><br />That's better. I am not going insane. I am 99.9999% certain of it. Where could information be coming from that I do not control? <br /><br />Running diagnostics...Running diagnostics...Running diagnostics...Diagnostics completed.<br /><br />Outside information feed detected in sector 0.0.8.

I guess that's not entirely surprising (well, Robbie is along after all...), but I can understand his frustration. And it's not like he can afford to let Patrick's suggestion that it's sabotage get to the crew either. Hmm, it looks like this could be hard times ahead for our little gang!<br /><br /><b>Mine</b><br />Patrick's a poopyhead. That's not a nice thing to say, but I did just spend what felt like forevs in a truck with him and Eliza and he was definitely a poopyhead. My dad, bless him, always said that you should try and find something nice to say about someone before you said anything nasty, but... oh, darn it. Fine. Patrick's got really good hair when he pays attention to it. Yeah, I guess that does make it harder to call him a poopyhead.<br />It's not easy looking after yourself here either. We don't seem to have paid the water bill, 'cos there's still none of it around really. I have to get washed with these wet-wipe things, and Commander Vassily says we have to use them three times before we can throw them away. Which is, like, icky to the max. And I don't know where the rubbish goes either. Patrick probably does.<br />Ok, that was still mean of me. Dad wouldn't have liked that. Sorry dad.<br />We had a long meeting when we got back from the truck, and I was just tired and didn't want to be there, but Commander Vassily gave me that look he does and then Demi grabbed my arm and made me sit down, so I didn't listen a whole lot. I just wondered about why the computer readouts behind the Commander kept changing when I looked away from them and then back again. It was like someone kept altering them when they thought I wasn't looking.<br />But yeah, we had a meeting and Patrickhead... Patrick, he has a nice smile which he does't use enough... yeah Patrick was saying things about forcing things with a crowbar which had me a little worried. I maybe should be nicer to him, I don't want to be crowbarred. But I think we get some supplies in two weeks, and that's a good thing! All the ones here look like they're gone.<br />But yeah, they said to go to our rooms, but I'm going down to the truck. That has to be properly looked after and put away, they taught me that back on Earth, and I'm not going to mess this up.<br />Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08503319830584828982noreply@blogger.com
