week 1, saturday

[alteracion]

[ somewhere in the void fukuda and grace bump into each other. the void is the kitchen ig because grace lifts her soda can at him in greeting before sipping it, looking like she hates today ]

[holeful]

[This is fair. Fukuda is just leaning against the counter peeling an orange.

Wouldn't it be fucked up if I just decided he was one of those people who eat oranges whole? Anyway.]

You know, you did a good job in there, miss Grace.

[alteracion]

[ the entire pc would be about that as grace judges him, but instead she just goes ??? ]

All I did was look into mouths.

[ it was horrible. ]

[holeful]

I think you were involved in more than just that... but even just that part, you had to be quite brave to ask that.

[It didn't help but... damn if you didn't do it!!]

[alteracion]

I just... wanted to figure it out. That's all.

[ usually she'd love praise but this feels unearned ]

[holeful]

Aah. I think we all were determined to do better than last week, so to fail again is especially disheartening...

[Peels orange sadly!!!]

[alteracion]

It sort of feels like we did worse this time, but I guess it was equally bad. And at least now the killer robot isn't going to kill people next week like it said it would.

[holeful]

Aah. I suppose it is better this way... He was interesting to talk to, though, a robot that sophisticated...

[Fukuda stop simping for all the murdery people???]

[alteracion]

It looked like a normal robot to me. Just ruder.

[ train robots. they're a thing. ]

[holeful]

Are fully sentient robots a normal thing where you're from, miss Grace?

[alteracion]

Yeah. They're awful.

[holeful]

Well, no wonder you're not impressed.

[He laughs and pops a segment of orange in his mouth.]
I've never seen a robot that advanced before, is all.

[alteracion]

You could always ask the Avatars if you could keep the parts.

[holeful]

[He shakes his head as he eats another orange slice.]

I wouldn't know what to do with them. I don't know anything about robot construction, I just think they're interesting.

[alteracion]

Because you're not used to the technology?

[holeful]

Aah. The sort of math I'm familiar with isn't that complex.

[alteracion]

... Math?

[holeful]

You know.... numbers and stuff?

[alteracion]

I know what math is, what's that got to do with robots?

[holeful]

Well, any robot capable of complex motion is going to need some sort of physics engine, and in a way, physics is just applied mathematics.

[alteracion]

Isn't it just its programming?

[ is programming math? maybe, but fuck if she knows ]

[holeful]

Sure, but all programming is based on logic and math. Especially for movement. A robot doesn't have a brain. It probably has cameras for eyes, and I have to assume it operates on some sort of xyz axis and so you'd need a lot of math to convert the desired movements based on visual data to hard numbers it can understand.

["I don't know a lot about robots" he said.]

[alteracion]

[ she wants to say she didn't ask but she sort of did, so she just groans a little ]

Okay, but I don't see how talking to the robot tells you anything about any of that.

[holeful]

[Listen his profile warned you. It said math.]

No, but it's just interesting to think about something approaching a consciousness that's all made up of numbers. Built on logic. Human brains aren't like that.

[alteracion]

If you say so.

[ this is an incredibly normal scenario to grace and im crying. sometimes trains are weird ]
