GLaDOS: This floor is still safe but not as safe compared to my chamber. There are still some rogue military androids wandering. You know, before I figured out how to immobilize them, turrets could actually move freely with their legs.Most of them ended up killing themselves in the process. Of course. If they were clumsy enough. Hehe.
[I'm going to start doing story format now just because it's easier.]I glanced up at a nearby camera. "Could you just call them turrets instead of that long name?"
"I could. But that would be going against their proper titles."
"Everyone else calls them turrets." I start to wander around again, knowing I could still talk to GLaDOS where ever I happened to end up.
GLaDOS diverts her path, blocking a few corners towards elevators with panels. "Hm. That's nice. And I bet everyone else calls you 'Liz', but that's not your real name."
"How do you know?" I stop and give another camera a quizzical look.
GLaDOS: Facial recognition wired directly into the FBI computer files database.
"Hm. Does that happen to have my age on it too?"
GLaDOS: Well, yes. But it's not as if I was able to figure that out right away. I had you searched after you informed me of your age.
"I still can't believe you couldn't figure out my age..." I said, decided to continue to walk around, and started doing so.
GLaDOS: You know, I really don't know EVERYTHING. Not all AIs do.
I didn't reply, but walked in silence for several minutes."Do you ever get lonely?" I asked, quite suddenly and randomly.
GLaDOS: Lonely? Why would I? I find alone time to be the best time.
"I... um..." Okaaaayyy... words haven't failed me before, why should they fail me now?"Idunno," I said in a small voice.
same as on DA. < then 'i' then > and after the italics part you want to end italics with < then / then i then >--
GLaDOS: Curious again. I see.
[html confuses me. I prefer bbcode]"Yeah... I suppose." I said, and then noticed a panel that was slightly pushed out from the wall. I nudged it back into place with my foot and continued on.
I walked for a while more, not really caring where I ended up. And since I wasn't paying attention to where I was going, I soon found myself standing outside of GLaDOS's chamber. The door automatically opened, making for a rather awkward situation.
GLaDOS: Oh. Well there you are. Not that I wasn't expecting you. After all, there are cameras in every corridor.
"...It was probably a retarded idea to not pay attention to where I was going."I walked in because there was nothing else to do at the moment, even though the sight of the giant AI hanging from the ceiling still made me a little nervous.
"So, uh, hi, I guess."
GLaDOS: Yes? Come in. It's not as if I'm going to bite you or anything. *slight friendly laughter*
I walk in further, relaxing a little. "It's just that I never really realized how, well, big you are last time I was in here because of my sugar induced stupidity."
GLaDOS: *nudges her away from the door with a mechanical arm, closing the door behind her* Well, no need to be shy. Unless you have an irrational fear of large spaces- or objects. In which case, I guess that gives you a right.
I grinned. "No irrational fears of large things here."
"Good. Because this facility takes up over 200 underground acres." The domestic android returns with a few bags of groceries and a comforter-blanket.
"Oh, that's nice," she says sarcastically as she shoos the android away to make her something to eat, leaving the blanket with Liz.
I kind of stared at the blanket, not really sure what to do with it.
In the chamber, there are hundreds of cubes stacked in front of and ontop of each other. GLaDOS isn't looking at her, but glances back every few minutes as she sorts files in her own mainframe. She gave a slight laugh, "By the look on your face, I'd say you have questions."
"Just wondering what to do with the blanket," I said, shrugging.
"That seems like a pointless question. What does one typically do with a blanket?"
I stare blankly up at the AI after poking the blanket a bit with my foot.[Assuming the android left it on the ground]
"Suit yourself, then."She remains silent, returning to her still state as she re arranges data files.
I decided to spread the blanket out a bit and started sitting on it and watching GLaDOS. She was remaining pretty much motionless, and I began to grow curious as to what she was doing."What you you doing?" I asked, figuring that she would just ignore me if she was too busy doing whatever she was doing to hold a conversation.
"Sorting files. Discarding the old, copying the new."
"Ah."My mind wandered to my sketchpad I had left at home when I had made my hasty break for freedom. If it had it with me, this would've been a great time to try to draw GLaDOS. Even though she was being conveniently still, I imagined she would be a challenge to draw with the amount of details on her.
It was odd how normal humming combined with the computerized drone that GLaDOS's voice possessed came out so... musical.I let my eyes wander around the central AI chamber, not really caring exactly where I looked.
I let myself fall backwards on the blanket and started to lay on my back, staring up at the ceiling.
GLaDOS: There isn't much to look at up there.
GLaDOS: You know, laying on your back isn't bad for you, but it does no real good for you, either.
"So? It's comfortable, and that's what matters."
GLaDOS: Curling up in the fetal position is comfortable for some people, too. But is it good for their backs? Absolutely not.
"...And you called me a pessimist." I smirked a bit as I said this.
GLaDOS: I'm technically neutral. Ha ha. *sarcastic tone*
*the domestic android returns with a small white box, then leaves.*
[Um, great details there... what did it do with the box before it left? Or is it just mysteriously floating somewhere around the room?]
