[Gibson was slowly starting to get accustomed to this new world, though it seemed to his Outlands-adjusted eyes that the vile sun was actually staying in the sky for longer every day, bit by bit. He hoped it wasn't a permanent progression. Almost the first thing he'd done once he'd found his room was make it much, much darker ( Read more... )

[walks into the kitchen just in time to OH MY GOD. totally panics and runs over.]

A-are you all right?!

action forever! bostrumite May 3 2011, 05:44:55 UTC

[He groans a little.]

Back up to a hundred percent, sure. Just. Gotta. Wait for the pain to wear off....

[asdfakjdjks;d he is actually pulling at his hair right now without realizing it, looking from Gibs to the wall outlet and back a few times.]

Why did - that's an electrical socket, isn't it? It's dangerous to stick things in them!

[and he should know! he has read it in a book. /nod nod]

[He rolls over, so he's at least sitting up now.]

How else am I supposed to get energy out of it, though? That's how the lights work!

1/2 sparkplasma May 3 2011, 05:56:50 UTC

But... the lights use a special cord, I think, right...?

[sfkl; this is no time to talk about lights!]

A-anyway, what did you need it for?

bostrumite May 3 2011, 05:59:51 UTC

[THEY ARE PERFECTLY RELEVANT TO THE CONVERSATION OKAY.]

I was running low. We don't all get energy by sticking things in our mouths, you know.

sparkplasma May 3 2011, 06:02:52 UTC

[NUH UH IT'S NOT LIKE YOU'RE COVERED IN THEM OR ANYTHoh wait]

Sticking thi- what?

bostrumite May 3 2011, 13:59:11 UTC

You know. Food.

[He struggles to stand up, looking a little wobbly.]

I'm not made out of blood and bones and--[what were some of the other words Hard Harry had used?]--snot and puke, so putting food in my mouth doesn't give me energy. I'm made out of code, so I can take it raw.

Ah... [haha computers still go waaaaaay over his head. but he got the gist of it he thinks.] So you... eat electricity? Like Bits do?

bostrumite May 5 2011, 19:32:39 UTC

Exactly like that! Bits are little guides from the Grid, tell you where you need to go, help you out if you're not sure what to do. They only need a little tiny bit of energy because they're pretty simple.

[stretching his brain a bit here, and it shows in his expression]

And then you're like that, only more complex?
