001. Audio/Action for the labs within TR HQ
[AUDIO]
[And somewhere in Johto, there's someone in an incredibly good mood today; somebody's audio channel has been left open, and the result is a rather strong, clear soprano voice singing...uh, something rather repetitive and kind of Italian over the feed. She seems to be singing as she works on something or other; since she doesn't have the benefit of a bunch of ridiculously cute turrets providing background music, the song is a capella, and as such there are a lot of rather audible mechanical...noises happening in the background.
Weird. Grating noises. At least they sound like they're a good distance away from her...but then there's the occasional really loud wham in the background. That seems to be decidedly nearer.
...oh dear.
Whatever she's doing, however, the sudden banging sounds seem to be pretty much par for the course as far as she's concerned; her voice isn't breaking any, with the exception of the occasional waver that comes with what's probably her turning her head away from the general direction of the Gear to check whatever the hell is making all the noise.
GLaDOS is having quite a good day; as little as she's liked being human, she's actually rather fond of the fact that her voice now comes with decidedly less autotune.]
[ACTION]
[For those within the Rocket base, the incessant sounds in that area are implying that GLaDOS is having a grand old time generally doing what Aperture Science employees do best: breaking things horribly. For now, she seems to have been dedicating her time to recreating an incredibly crude Aerial Faith Plate; she hasn't gotten very far, having had to make the entire thing by hand, but she's staked out one of the larger rooms for herself and is currently testing out what she's managed, singing to herself all the while.
Of course, "what she's managed to do" has been create a means to terrify her Raticate, the aptly-dubbed Test Subject #1; in between the rounds of Cara Mia Addio, those with access to the labs can likely find a ridiculously tall, very pale woman with thinly-rimmed glasses and long white hair, standing around and trying to convince said Raticate to get on the plate - before the thing quite simply launches too early, smashing the flat surface of the plate itself violently against the floor before righting itself. Kinda.
...
It's a work in progress, okay.]

[Eyeroll, Archer.]
You really do like to talk.
no subject
[That... will actually catch him off-guard and he'll just stare blankly at you. No really, what does he do with this?]
I... suppose...?
[Herp??]
no subject
Don't worry. There are much, much worse problems to have.
no subject
[He's not quite sure what to make of that expression, honestly.]
Are you new here? I haven't seen you around.
no subject
I haven't seen you in that time, either. I'm assuming science isn't something you do.
no subject
No, I'm not particularly interested in it. What else have you been working on here?
no subject
no subject
[Smirking forever, GLaDOS.]
What you're doing interests me, though it's never something I'd attempt to do myself.
no subject
What part of it interests you so much?
no subject
[...He totally has authority here, what are you talking about~?]
no subject
Testing tracks, used in testing out the handheld dual-portal device. Most of the mechanisms within the recent testing tracks were my design; aside from the Aerial Faith Plates, there were also the Thermal Discouragement Beams, Hard Light Bridges, Excursion Funnels...and the turrets, of course.
[She'll just be smirking up a storm while she ticks those off. One day you'll get to see her testing tracks. Up close and personal. If you get her drift.]
no subject
Turrets? Do you have any other experience with weapons, then?
[From the smirking, it should be pretty clear what Archer intends to do.]
Team Rocket could certainly make use of weapons. We've utilized bombs in the past, but any sort of weaponry would be useful.
no subject
But all right. You want to talk turrets? Let's talk turrets.]
Yes, turrets. Some of them have missile launchers built in; others are laser-operated, designed to find intruders. Then they open their chassis on either side and open fire.
With gatling guns.
It's very satisfying.
no subject
I imagine it would be. Missile launchers, you said?
[HOLY SHIT, MADAM. WHERE IS YOUR NEWSLETTER AND CAN HE SIGN UP.]
Would you be capable of creating anything of the sort here?
no subject
[She pauses for a moment, tipping her head a bit.]
So I suppose that's a "not yet."
