[closed] So before they get to you, do what you've gotta do

[zerotohiro]

Who: Hiro Hamada, Yu Narukami and Dipper Pines
When: Morning of IC 5/17
Where: Hiro's workshop at the tech and auto shop
What: A genius, a wildcard, and a mystery lover walk into a shop and put together an information-sharing ring.
Rating/Warning: Will update if needed


[He'd spoken to Yu a few days prior about everything and he'd passed on the message to bring Dipper with him back to the workshop the morning of the 17th. It gave them all time to recover from the carnival and get their bearings together.

Now that Yu knew of what he and Dipper were up to, Hiro felt it was time to get his friends together and really start hashing out how they would be dispersing information among the colony. It needed to be down to a specific science. They couldn't screw this up.

And it's for that reason he and Baymax are in Hiro's small workshop bright and early before anyone else is even at the shop, Mochi sprawled on his desk (specifically for Yu) and with what looked like breakfast from McCeres. There were piles of notes and documents and tools around him and when Baymax ushered his friends into the shop he wasted little time in handing the pair of them a set of glasses each, slipping his own onto his face.]

I know it's early, but we're kinda working on limited time here. We really need to start figuring out what we're gonna do next.

[ Yu nods at them both. ]

Handwriting everything would take a while, though... think we could use your laptop, Hiro? We compile a document, encrypt it using one of Dipper's ciphers, and print it out. Anyone who reads it has to have a pair of glasses on.

[ He taps a finger on his chin. ] We'd have to update it manually, but I don't think that's too big a deal once the initial document is done. As for what to share... Hiro, you've been on both forays into the CERES headquarters, right? There's also our trip into the jungle. Plus, each of us can add whatever theories we have based on the evidence we've seen. That's a lot to go on as it is.

Not a bad idea. I'm pretty sure the laptop isn't part of CERES's system and if I'm wearing these to write the thing up we should be safe. Dipper's been working on a pretty good cipher. [He shoots an encouraging smile at his friend because hey, he's kind of proud of him. Dipper and Hiro have been working on this together...for a while now.]

Updates wouldn't be bad. We can have one document solely dedicated to this and any time any of us have updates we can come here, put on the glasses and work on it. I'll have to password-encrypt it too just in case. [But then Yu asks that question and he slows down again.] ...I was on two of them, yeah. There were the tours that happened right before I got here and I have a little information on those. Katsura was on those, I think. Yang and Phoenix too. We have both trips to the jungle, my two trips to the tower, some of the theories me and Dipper talked about...

[A low, long exhale.] This thing's gonna be massive by the time we're done, but it's the only way we can keep it organized.

[cryptologic]

[ Dipper nods along with Yu's ideas, and then Hiro's. Using the laptop would make it easier to update the information and ensure the accuracy of the cipher. ]

Better to give people too much information than not enough, I think. I mean, maybe some of our ideas aren't going to go anywhere, but we won't really know unless we follow them, right? And there might be something someone else has learned that can answer a few of our questions already.

[ Which brings him to another idea he's been tossing around... ]

What do you two think about having in-person meetings with the group where we can actually discuss things? Glasses mandatory, obviously, so it might be awhile before we can get everyone together. But it'd be a great way to hash out some of our theories.
