[Audio] Everyone say it with me: Delicious Data

[purplexing]

Greetings all, it is I, Donatello.

Did you know that this Convoy actually has a database full of delicious information? ...okay, maybe not delicious, actually a lot of it is concerning and disturbing WELL HEY it's even more so now!

...

....that...wasn't what I was going for, but anyway!

So I don't know who all is morbidly curious enough to see what all this thing has been compiling of the local fauna- a.k.a. the monsters we've been running into, but it's there. I'm trying to see if I can get the AI to support an audio version. Any volunteers for reading?

Ah, but Donnie's not done yet-

I have also updated the database to include all those lovely details that have been gathered from the latest library in regards to our various transformations, and the possible creatures that we are becoming. Mind, it also includes some contradicting opinions as I can only guess originate from our favorite Wardens and Tears, but after coming from Fort Contradiction, that is hardly a surprise.

For ease of browsing, I've set up a rudimentary terminal in the main Convoy.

You're welcome.


((OOC: Should be no surprise that he's dove headfirst back into things and resumed his horrible sleeping habits because he needs to feel productive. So basically the information in the bestiary and on the various monsters from the guide are available ICly.))

Good work.

I transcribed some of the books on the Convoy and vehicle technology from our trip through the cabin.

[ You know because the books themselves seemed to transform people into sphinxes and manticores. Wouldn't want to carry those around. ]

I entered it into the database. You can have the original notes I made.

[ The data has been available in the Convoy's system for a while, but there's probably some extra diagrams and pictures that weren't easy to transfer. ]

[purplexing]

[Know that he is mentally framing those words and putting them up forever.]

Oh, good idea. [Not that he doesn't have more than a few of those books he'd borrowed himself, but at least he has a library card! Nerd]

Ah, that was you. Okay, I'll keep them with everything else I've been collecting, but if there's anything yet to be added from them, I can do that pretty easily.

[coffinturk]

I'll bring them by later.

[ There will be some other notes as well. Personal observations. Which of the monsters he witnessed were 'native' to his world though also possessed differences to what he knew. Also careful notes taken from this conversation.

And.... that's about it for now as far as conversation goes. Unless there's anything else Vincent gets asked, he'll probably end the conversation there. Farewells? What are those. ]

[purplexing]

[Oh, the notes on people who've vanished won't make him sad at all or anything, nope...]

Cool, thanks.

[Aaand Donnie's not sure what else to say on the matter but he might be left staring at his radio for an awkward few minutes before realizing Vincent's probably hung up.]

[vaultless]

That's incredible. Thank you so much, that must have taken so much work.

[As a newbie to this world, a massive source of information to read over and digest is exactly what she'd been wanting.]

Do you think it might be possible to download the data onto my PIP-boy? I'd like to read over all of it, but I don't want to monopolise the terminal you set up.

[purplexing]

Not too much, not a problem, was more than happy to do it. I'm trying to make up for all the lying around since we came down that dumb mountain.

[Donnie, you were recuperating from blood loss. Please.]

Your what now? If it's some kind of computer then yeah, shouldn't be a problem. Depending on how it's built, it might be easier to just upload from my computer to yours instead.

[vaultless]

It's a computer, yes. A hand-held one. Or, well, wrist-held, in any case.

[Her voice wavers a little, and dang, she wishes Norm was here. Her little brother always had been much better with computers than she was. Oh, Lucy knew how to use a PIP-boy just fine for her day to day tasks, but Norm could make computer do things Lucy would've thought impossible.

Also, she just misses her little brother very much.]

I could... if it's not too much trouble, I could show it to you? Sorry, I wish I could explain it better, but I was never much of an expert at these things. You should've seen my brother though!

[Every family needs one (1) nerd.]

[purplexing]

Oh, nice. I have one I wear on my arm too.

I'd love to see it! Don't worry, I'm sure I can figure it out. Should I come find you or do you want to come find the Tank?

[saisdoesmatter]

....aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand yer not sleeping again, are you?

[purplexing]

I've slept enough!

[saisdoesmatter]

That's not an answer, Dee!

[purplexing]

Yes it is!

[mystic_hands]

Doooooooooooooonnnnniiiiiiiieeeee~

When was the last time you had a nap~?

1/3

[purplexing]

Last-

[purplexing]

....

3/3

[purplexing]

...it was recent!

[mystic_hands]

And how 'recent' was 'recent'~?

[purplexing]

Within the current climate-change recent!

[bufudine]

Good work. I'll review the monster and transformation information and add what wasn't captured.

[Since those are his areas of Interest. He basically only read the hunting logs, no matter how grisly they got, and he has plenty of personal experience hunting monsters.]

I have time to read.

[The audio version must be for Edward.]

I have a problem that I could use your knowledge to help solve. Are you at your tank right now?

[purplexing]

You're welcome to it. The one on local monsters seems to auto-update, at least.

I'll lend you my phone to record then, whenever you're up for it.

[He pauses at the question.]

Iiii am not, but I can come find you.

[Not kind of sort of avoiding his brothers because of this whole sleep argument, nope!]

[bufudine]

[Hm that's weird. But he won't pry into it.]

I'm by my vehicle.

[The bright orange pickup. And if failing that, he's also sitting on the roof of it, wings stretched. He'll fold them to make space if Donnie chooses to join him up top, though. This time he also has huge rabbit ears and legs with big thumpy paws, fur replacing the feathers on his arms.]

[purplexing]

[Oh, that's easy to find. Donnie's well acquainted with Serph's vehicle, even if it's been so long since he'd ridden in the thing.]

Got it. On my way.

[It's not long since he's still within the Convoy's perimeter, and soon he's circling above Serph's truck before gliding down to land delicately on the side of the roof that's made available to him. There's a long moment as he stares at the other.]

...it's like every time I see you you look completely different.

[alittlebeastliness]

How much hardware do you have beyond the basics of what we've been given?

[purplexing]

I mainly have whatever I have managed to scavenge from past Warden encounters and places we have been. Anything more heavy-duty or specialized, I improvise.

Were you looking for something?

[alittlebeastliness]

You can probably guess that I'm in the same boat, and this is the first time I've had to do much with building my own rigs from parts.
