Someone call a techpriest.

[roomguarder]

A WH--

THAT SOUNDS LIKE THE ONE FOR THE JOB

[Brainstorm looks unamused. Even moreso than usual.]

That's not even anywhere near the proper error code system for the COMPs.

Now behave before I remotely shut yours down.

[ The screen flicks on to reveal a very confused teenager. ]

what in the world are you

[ Very confused, yet very deadpan. ]

I am Brainstorm.

I am a Cybertronian. In the most basic human terms, I am a "sentient giant robot".

I am one of main individuals who put the COMP system together. I know it inside and out. I'm one of the individuals that others come to when they have issues with their COMPs. This interrupts my other, more important projects. And if my projects have to be interrupted because of a ridiculous prank like this, it will make me very cross.

And to make a weapons engineer cross would be most unwise.

[ Sentient giant robot? She shouldn't, but she laughs, anyway. ]

It clearly wasn't much of a disruption if you recognized it as a prank so quickly.

[Well, cue about ten minutes of fiddling with the software on this holocaster device...thing. At least it seems to be normal binary machine code...]

good one. nice excuse for me to learn how computers work here. easier when you can talk to the machine, though.

[roomguarder]

Not really.

Some machines have inferior vocal recognition software.

[echo_of_a_jedi]

well sure, some manual labor droids.

[And don't get her started on Force-forsaken mining droids.]

but the technology level seems a little backwards here. I can't even get a 3D picture out of this comm. nice and portable, though. halfway between a commlink and a big holoreceiver i guess.

i need actual surprised icons for her, the blush sends the wrong message

[ihaveanannouncement]

Um, what?

[roomguarder]

COMP SYSTEM SHUTTING DOWN

CODE RED ALERT

URGENCY

[ihaveanannouncement]

What should I do then?

[roomguarder]

FIND SOMEONE TO FIX IT

[deathboss]

I DIDN'T DO IT

[roomguarder]

I WOULDN'T BE SO SURE OF THAT

[deathboss]

BUT I WAS JUST TRYING TO USE THE STREET LOCATOR ON IT.

[roomguarder]

NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE HUMAN CAPACITY FOR DESTRUCTION

[maxwells_silver_scythe]

Crap where's the manual!?

Wait a second why is this coming in from someone else's comp?

[roomguarder]

WHOSE COMP IS IT COMING FROM

[akihisaful]

Ack!! What! I didn't touch anything!!

[roomguarder]

THE COMP SYSTEMS ARE ATTACHED TO YOUR BODY YOU DO NOT HAVE TO TOUCH IT TO MESS IT UP

[akihisaful]

What do I do to get this error to stop?!
