002. Audio/Action for Goldenrod City
[AUDIO]
[Well, Johto, today you are getting the most terse question in the history of terse questions; no elaborations, no explanations, just incredibly to-the-point. There isn't any sort of noise in the background to indicate where the speaker is, specifically, either, though the general white-noise sounds indicate somewhere outdoors.]
So what sort of buildings are we allowed to rent out here, anyway?
[ACTION]
[Surprisingly, GLaDOS is actually outside today, sitting on a bench in one of the small, open squares in Goldenrod City. She has two of her Pokémon out - the Deerling and the Porygon-Z - but she doesn't seem to be paying them much mind, though she does glance up once in a while as though to ensure they haven't run off; rather, most of her attention seems given to a legal pad sitting in her lap - not full of research notes, but rather drawings, the lines sketchy and angular, outlining what appear to be floor plans. The rooms have a somewhat creepy lack of perspective going on, what with all of the walls visible like the room is some sort of cardboard box collapsed outwards, and parts of the floors and walls are covered with Xs and bullseye targets.
She has several pages turned back on that legal pad before the one she's currently sketching on; she could probably wallpaper herself a nice room full of crazy if she felt inclined to display it anywhere, but for now she's content to draw and let her Pokémon play with each other.]

Fine. If you don't want to solve this, then that's fine with me. I'll see you later, then.
[You're totally going to stop him now, right?]
no subject
I mean, she'll look up really obviously annoyed, but
...no really is she supposed to be doing something here, how does this shit work]
no subject
Oh come on! You're supposed to call me back and tell me what the problem is!
[You're doing this all wrong, ugh!]
no subject
You know, you weren't supposed to be watching those horrible movies we let the humans watch in the stasis chambers.
no subject
[ALKEMRKWLENLKSEL HDU]
no subject
Don't worry about it.
[When she does look up, she's smirking again, though the expression isn't anywhere near as cruel as it usually is.]
Someone had to pick them out, after all. I still think they're horrible, though.
no subject
Yes, well. It was only for their sake!
[He folds his arms and huffs, frowning down at the ground instead of at her. He's gone bright red and he knows it - how do humans control this sort of thing anyway?]
no subject
Mmhmm, I'm sure.
[She leans forward then, folding her forearms over her knees and tipping her head a bit.]
Why did you put in for a transfer, anyway?
[Her tone isn't angry anymore, really; just curious.]
no subject
Well, there were a number of reasons. I really liked Kanto, it's nowhere near as crowded as Johto seems to be - everyone starts here, after all - and then there's all those new recruits to deal with and frankly, I can't be bothered.... Ah, and then there's Descole. He's fascinating! A great boss, really. I'm excited to work with him some more! We have some excellent plans in store, you'll see! He doesn't talk down to me, or dismiss all my ideas as stupid either.
Ah, and then there's you. I... well. You and I don't get along very well when we're working in the labs. That much is obvious. Not that we get along all that well outside the labs either, but you know what I mean. Right? Right. Anyway, I figured this would be best for both of us. You wouldn't have to deal with me, and I wouldn't have to deal with you. Simple, really. Best solution, I thought. Apparently that's just upset you somehow. Not that I really care whether or not I upset you, of course.
