I know how worried you all are about the organic killing machines. I can sympathize. And you know what? I've found that your new furry friends really don't do well against deadly lasers. Who knew?

I've secured a safe room on the first floor. Follow the trails of mutilated hounds.

Oh. I should mention. The door has an electronic lock that I just can't seem to control. But you can probably open it if you can work through the algorithm on the door.

No, don't bother. You can thank me whenIF you get in here.

First floor?

[ Because she'll be damned if that isn't exactly where she's trying to get to right now. It takes a moment or two of deliberation, but finally she decides to make a break for it. Without further announcement over the network, she shoves her device into her pocket, takes her blade in her hand and runs.

At the door she stops, and looks at it for a moment. She's completely stationary for a full twenty seconds, and then she just abruptly sits down cross legged on the floor and starts to work. She'll crack it, she's sure of it. Couldn't be that hard - for her, at least.

And people say there are no benefits to being a genius. ]

[ Well, well. Here's someone who seems to have half a brain.

She's not joking around; GLaDOS really has secured a room. But it'll take someone smarter, someone like this girl, apparently, to get in. ]

This isn't an open offer, you know. You can't just bring other people in here who haven't solved it. That wouldn't be fair.

[crybabybootleg]

Sorry, but what's an algorithm?

video;

[androidhell]

"An effective method expressed as a finite list of well-defined instructions for calculating a function."

Re: video;

[crybabybootleg]

Uh. So there are instructions on the door?

video;

[androidhell]

There are. In a way. Why don't you go look?

Re: video;

[crybabybootleg]

Well, I'm already holed up in the diner, but... it's real swell of you to think of everyone's safety! So thank you.

video;

[androidhell]

[ no she isn't trying to be nice damn it ]

I think you should go look.

[crybabybootleg]

I think those hounds, mutilated or invisible or otherwise, are a little too damn scary to go poking around out in the open.

I shouldn't press my luck.

[androidhell]

[ Spoilsport. ]

I think pressing luck is part of the fun.

Re: video;

[crybabybootleg]

I'm not really a gamblin' man!

video;

[androidhell]

Do it anyway.

[stoptheviolence]

Who's Al, and what kind of rhythm are we talking about here?

video;

[androidhell]

Very funny.

video;

[stoptheviolence]

What is?

video;

[androidhell]

Your apparent idiocy.

[stoptheviolence]

[Now, see, that? That right there? One of the few things that can actually break through Brittany's outer shell to a slightly darker tone and expression. She's suddenly very serious.]

I'm not an idiot.

video;

[androidhell]

Previous evidence suggests the opposite of what you've said.

video;

[stoptheviolence]

Aren't robots supposed to be nice or something?

video;

[androidhell]

Aren't humans supposed to be compliant or something?

video;

[stoptheviolence]

Not if they're teenagers.

video;

[androidhell]

I've never had to deal with teenagers. If I did, I didn't notice.

video;

[stoptheviolence]

Well, you're dealing with one now.

So deal.

video;

[androidhell]

No.

[ Click! Off goes the feed with the immature AI. ]

[carbon_knight]

[He loves her. He hardly knows her, and he loves her.]

Having fun?

[androidhell]

[ /hi5 mark ]

Oh, plenty.

[carbon_knight]

I see you have a winner already.

[androidhell]

She did surprise me. Well, a job well done to her. And now I know who specifically could lend their bright, young mind to science.

[carbon_knight]

She seems to be a surprising kind of person.

It would be nice if you had a few more takers. Comparing times. Strategies.

[androidhell]

If only. The others are too stupid, unmotivated, or unwilling to try.

[carbon_knight]

I wouldn't mind playing myself.

[androidhell]

Whenever I find a way to get over to that side, I'll leave a trail of algorithms.

[carbon_knight]

I will look forward to it.

[video forever]

[usskickass]

...You aren't gonna do anything funny to people who get in, are you?

[Not that she doesn't trust GLaDOS or anything...]

voice forever

[androidhell]

If by 'funny' you mean 'helpful and exactly what I promised with no dangerous additions,' then yes.

[usskickass]

You promise?

[...Can robots lie? Beiste is not entirely sure about that one. She's pretty sure Terminator lied at least once.]

[androidhell]

No. But believe me.

[usskickass]

That ain't easy to do, what with how you tend to talk about neurotoxin and all.

[androidhell]

Your prejudice hurts my feelings.

[usskickass]

...Do you have feelings? Bein' a computer and all?

[androidhell]

And you've hurt them again.
