estoria | [open] have you ever wanted to disappear?

Who: Tadashi Hamada (

bropane), Demo the talking CYbuddy, + you!
When: 16-17 Feb IC (7-10 Aug OOC)
Where: Tech & Auto shop, shopping district, and the residential district.
What: A follow up log to his network post. Stalker app installments (as well as other tech related things), nerdery, and passing out on a bench.
Rating/Warning: Will update when necessary!

a: tech & auto shop (semi-open)

[ he's been feeling really tired and sickly lately, but thankfully, a bunch of aspirins and orange juice, as well as some tea has been keeping him going. a few days after things get back to normal, he sends a message to some people who expressed interest in the app he came up with, saying that they can meet up now if they're available. if he hasn't sent the address yet, then he'll tell them to come to the tech and auto shop, and even attaches a map with it. what a nice guy this tadashi hamada is.

with him in his workshop is a miniature st. bernard cybuddy. when the doors slide open upon somebody arriving, it's the first thing that will welcome the person. at least the dog just talks, and doesn't bite! ]

Hello, hello! Welcome to Tadashi's workshop!

[ the dog sniffs at the shoes of tadashi's visitor as the roboticist himself gets up from his seat, approaching the door. ]

Hey. Good to see you, [ and he offers a hand to shake if he hasn't met the person yet before gesturing to a wheelie chair nearby. ] Have a seat.

[ though if this isn't the first time he's met this person, he'll just gesture to the seat right away, telling them to take a seat while he gets his laptop. ]

b: shopping district (late morning)

Demo, I really don't have time for this right now, [ tadashi says, looking pretty exhausted. he's carrying some bags with him - groceries - which he wants to put down on a counter soon since it's getting heavier by the second. not to mention, he probably should get some rest. working while being sick isn't fun at all, so getting home is a priority.

too bad his cybuddy doesn't seem to agree with him. the dog is barking at an alleyway that probably connects to a deadend. tadashi said he has no time for it, so he isn't even checking it out. ]

But Tadashi, there's something out there! [ the dog responds loudly before barking at the alleyway again. fun… and a talking dog might be weird for some people passing by. they probably haven't met the demo the dog before, or heard of tadashi's incoming line of cybuddies yet. ]

c: residential district + wildcard (post-baseball plot)

[ the day after his excursion with demo, he decides not to bring the dog out shopping again any time soon. having to put him in sleep mode wasn't fun, since he's supposed to have configured demo to work properly. he didn't see any signs of any glitching either, when he checked on his cybuddy's software after getting home… (cybuddies are officially troublesome.)

now, he's on his way to work again, though he's running a bit late. it's just a few hours into the afternoon since he woke up at lunchtime not feeling rejuvenated at all. his limbs are also sore from all the baseball he played the day before. he probably looks sick to someone who can sees him and the cybuddy walking around, so feel free to tell him to go back home and get some rest.

during the evening, he can be found walking back to his apartment looking like he needs a lot of sleep, too. he's sent his cybuddy to go home ahead of him, so he's just alone. though when he receives a text, he takes a seat on a nearby bench by one of the apartments before answering… and ultimately passing out.

feel free to draw on his face, or be a good person and wake him up. ]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[It's pretty interesting to see the Cybuddy, especially see it sniff her shoes, but she still turns her attention to Tadashi when he speaks up. She shakes his hand and nods, before wandering over to the seat he specified and sitting down.]

Thanks again for that offer -- how long were you working on that, exactly?

Demo, or the app?

The app took me about a day, [ he starts fixing his laptop as he talks, though he looks back at shepard every now and then to not show disrespect. ]

Demo... about a week. Thankfully, working on something that's similar to what I've done back at home isn't so difficult the second time.

[She's used to it -- it actually reminds her of Garrus constantly calibrating...whatever he was calibrating.]

I guess it wouldn't be. [She's watching him though, curious.] So you did this sort of thing where you're from? Is there anything you made there that you haven't here?

I've got Baymax - he's like a walking marshmallow. But he's with my brother now.

You might see them walking around the colony from time to time, though. Aside from that, there's a lot more things back home.

[ wires connected and it looks like he's ready to go. ]

I'd need your CereVice now. Don't worry, nothing private's going to get stored in my system.

[A walking marshmallow...]

And what's Baymax?

[She'll hand over the CereVice when prompted, though, with the addition:]

I'm not worried about it. There's nothing personal on there anyway.

[ don't judge a book by its cover, ok... ]

He's a nurse robot, though I've been told he's got some upgrades now and is a superhero robot of some kind. [ his brother, seriously. . . shakes head.

and that's all he says. tadashi takes the cerevice and plugs the wire in, and quickly transfers a file from his laptop to the device. it only takes about ten seconds tops, then he disconnects the cerevice and clicks on some things before handing it back to shepard. ]

There you go. There should be a tab on your contacts list that'll let you choose if you want to be notified of people arriving and disappearing.

You can also enter names - fifty max - if you just want to be notified if specific people have arrived. It doesn't work if people's codes get corrupted.

[She's not, she's not, but it's hard to imagine a walking marshmallow.

Huh. She's probably just going to have to see Baymax to make sense of it, she decides, because "nurse robot turned superhero" is a pretty weird concept too.]

Thank you.

[She'll have to put in her crew, she thinks, because she wants to know immediately if they were to come here. It'll beat checking her phone all the time when people start appearing here, anyway.]

The specific people function is going to be even more useful.

[And she takes it back from Tadashi so that she can click around on it now, investigating it.]

Don't worry about it.

[ enjoy fiddling! there's not much to fiddle with, really, but it is a new addition to the device, so supposedly, one may find it interesting to investigate. ]
