Rupture University Campus, St. Louis, and The Internets

Hey, you know what's a great way to wake up on the first day of Thanksgiving break? To a beeping, rolling alarm clock playing the local news for your listening pleasure.

Gooood morning, Missouri! This is Sam Sorbel with your West Coast weather report. Don't think you'll want to be hitting the beaches today; the ocean's looking mighty snarly out

Francine's Twitter account was also active from Francine's computer, although it was Katchoo responsible for that. (Not that she'd be on Twitter herself, because her background and a social media platform added up to ahahahahano.)

@f-cupcake: @portalocity YOUC AN TAKE YOUR FRIKKIN HELLDIMENSION AND SHOVE IT, YOU TWOBIT EXCUSEFO R A PUBLIC SERVICE. KINDERGARTNERS HAVE BETTER PR SAV
@f-cupcake: @portalocity VY THAN YOU. I'LL HAVE YOUR DAMN BUSINESS LICENSE FOR THIS.

@f-cupcake: @TWITTER AND YOU WITH YOUR STUPID 140 CHARACTER CRAP, HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO BITCH PEOPLE OUT THIS WAY?

Sorry, Francine's capslock key.

[thatsamilkshake]

@f-cupcake: OMG THAT WAS NOT ME!!!!!!

[thismaskiwear]

The capslocking wasn't helping argue your case, Francine. Katchoo wasn't one to type "OMG," but how often did she ever interact on the Internet so anyone would know that?

@f-cupcake: @portalocity SUPERVISOR. ON THE LINE. NOW. ACTUALLY GET ME THE GNOME SO I CAN TELL HIM EXACTLY WHAT I'M GOING TO DO TO HIM.

The sad part: Katchoo could actually handle complex business transactions with a frightening amount of finesse. This might be a pretty low-level scenario by those standards, but finesse went right out the window when the continent ceased to exist one state at a time.

jackattack: @f-cupcake Try asking for a supervisor. Don't get off line until they give you one. That got me safe if smelly layover yesterday.

jackattack:@f-cupcake Glad you're on your way.

[thatsamilkshake]

@f-cupcake: @jackattack Will do that if they ever take me off hold! You in Fandom?

[bitten_notshy]

@f-cupcake Good luck. And yes - I got in this morning. My guardian went missing.

[thatsamilkshake]

@f-cupcake: @jackattack Oh no! Glad you're safe but I'm sorry.

So Jaina was likely to forget she ever had an account after this was over, but in between checking on stuff at home, she was looking at #portalocityfail.

@JainaSolo_: @f-cupcake What do you mean half the US is gone?

@JainaSolo_: @f-cupcake If youre willing to blow your savings you might get multiple connections w/o hell dimension.

[thatsamilkshake]

@f-cupcake: @JainaSolo_ I mean Texas and everything west of it suddenly never existed.
@f-cupcake: @JainaSolo_ Blowing Arthur's savings but yes, totally. IF I EVER GET OFF HOLD.

[solo_sword]

@JainaSolo_: @f-cupcake .................................
@JainaSolo_: @f-cupcake I have a bad feeling about this.

[weetuskenraider]

TahiriVeila: Hey @JainaSolo_, did you know that Face Loran's entire body of work never existed anywhere in the galaxy? Ever? #beyondbadfeelingtime

[solo_sword]

@JainaSolo_: @TahiriVeila #JUSTSLIGHTLY Are they still not letting you book anything?

[weetuskenraider]

TahiriVeila: @JainaSolo_ No, I mentioned you and they found me something. Think it involves a layover on Mandalore though. Or a space slug's guts.

[solo_sword]

@JainaSolo_: @TahiriVeila As long as you can still get places.
@JainaSolo_: @TahiriVeila I love having a reputation.
