neurotoxined: (And shorty can run her own tests)

004. [Text/Action for Goldenrod City]

[TEXT]

[Well. As much as GLaDOS likes to think she can handle things completely and utterly by herself with absolutely zero assistance from anyone else, thank you very much, sometimes there are things that are just...completely baffling. As much as she tries to work certain things out, it just isn't going to happen.

So there's going to be a brief text to the network sent out sometime in the morning aka this post is forward-dated to a time that isn't "unholy o'clock", rather blunt and to the point and...surprisingly free of sarcasm.]


Since a lot of you have probably been here long enough to figure out that sometimes people leave this place with no warning whatsoever, I have to wonder - does it mean something when you get an animal and/or property from someone who's left, or does this place just do that randomly?

Because I got something a while ago. It's been annoying me ever since, for a lot of reasons. I didn't like the idiot I got it from, so I don't think it's anything related to that.



[ACTION]

[And in news surprisingly unrelated to anything that she just posted, today is actually something of a rare occasion, given that GLaDOS is actually outside; she's found a square where she thinks she'll be alone for the most part - an assumption that can really only end in tears and pain, because she has all the subtlety of a sledgehammer when it comes to keeping her location concealed and said square is located rather near the Center she tends to work at in her spare time.

Either way, she's parked on a bench that she's cleared most of the snow off of, and it seems she's caught something recently - a Rotom is buzzing around her shoulders rather contentedly, causing the ends of her hair to frizz upwards a bit, though she doesn't pay it much mind for the time being. Her attention is focused elsewhere – namely, on the Koffing in front of her, which is currently poisoning the living shit out of her Mareep, from the look of it.

She's got a notebook lying open in her lap, though she's leaning forward so far that it's more or less a moot point; once in a while she seems to remember it's there and scrawls some notes down. She seems to be waiting for something; her Mareep is...seeming not too happy and is pretty much lying down on the ground by this point, looking at her in the most pathetic manner possible.

Well...she actually will look up once in a while toward that Rotom, which seems to give a grand total of zero damns about the apparent slow death-by-toxins in front of it; GLaDOS is humming a bit as she observes, and once in a while there's a noise from the creature next to her - the same melody repeated back, just staticky and strange, as though it's being played through a damn Tesla coil. She smirks at it, then goes back to rather gleefully torturing her sheep.

Science is going well today, it seems.]

okay. so either they DID like you enough to leave you a pokemon, or they at least respected you enough to leave you a pokemon.

sometimes just knowing person is enough.

[Her being unsubtle and him being a ninja means that he could come right up behind her shoulder, even lean over her back a bit, and be far too close when he started talking to alert her to his presence.]

Soooo, is this supposed to be an endurance test or do you just hate your pokemon?

[... Ha, funny you mentioned it, really. Especially for someone who's recently discovered their best friend is gone and was left in charge of some of his Pokémon. Idly skimming the network was supposed to be an escape from thinking about that, but apparently, no such luck.]

means they entrusted you with their wishes

[At least that's what he likes to believe.]

[Yep it's all good. He's totally done that to people before and it never fails to be amusing. Have a grin as he stands up like he didn't just startle the hell out of you.]

Well... there's a whole list of answers to that, so I'll go with 'asking you what you're doing' yeah?

little bit of both
itsjustdust: (Eeeeeeeh?)

[personal profile] itsjustdust 2013-02-13 05:35 am (UTC)(link)
Well... why do you hate her? Is this an 'I hate everything' issue or is there a specific 'I hate that' issue?

itsjustdust: (Carry the four...)

[personal profile] itsjustdust 2013-02-13 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
Sooo why haven't you given her away or traded her for something you don't hate then?
getthehorns: (| that's kind of amusing)
