[see Chell

see Chell sitting on her bed in her underwear, with a solved Rubik's cube in hand.

see Chell vaguely grinning in a really creepy, somewhat uncharacteristically manner.

Found my voice, guess I should tell you the truth.

[SHE'S SPEAKING A LOT BETTER THAN LAST TIME. and the camera's angled in a manner where you can barely tell that her eyes are pitch black.]

There was once a woman who only wanted her freedom, and there were two AIs who just wanted to watch her test all day. Then, that Lady rebelled, she wanted to have a life outside of a facility, she wanted nothing to do with science and neurotoxin and Itches and turrets and buttons. And that's when these AIs wanted her dead. One of them's gone back to where She belongs, the other one's still here. You might know him.

[her voice lowers into something more sinister sounding, as though trying to mimic someone else's voice. she turns the Rubik's cube over in her hands, staring at it absentmindedly.]

He's not just a regular moron. He's the product of the greatest minds of a generation working together with the express purpose of building the dumbest moron who ever lived.

And you have him on your ship, making whoever listen to his ideas morons themselves.

Don't feel bad, it's not your fault. That's what he was designed for.

[her voice go back to whatever her normal voice is, and she looks at the camera now, eyes flickering]

So Wheatley, why don't you tell everyone how you tried to murder me after I helped you. How you promised me my freedom and turned on me once you got a taste of all that power. How you almost destroyed the entire facility thanks to your stupidity. How your apologies mean nothing because you deserved to be tossed out into space, and that if given the chance you'd probably do it all over again.

Oh, and how does it feel being the one thing you always hated? Human. One of the smelliest humans on the ship, might I add.

[she purses her lips THIS IS REALLY UNCHARACTERISTIC OF HER in case the extreme amounts of talking aren't obvious enough. she looks off-camera again, still turning the cube in her hands.]

And it's Chell, by the way. Not that you deserve to know.

Sorry, let me try something else.

Shit. How's that?
cutsofftheirlimbs: ([stare] What are you even...)

[Audio]

[personal profile] cutsofftheirlimbs 2012-04-26 01:09 am (UTC)(link)
Still. Takes... well. Takes some courage to speak up after shit like that.

Believe me, I...think I kind of know how you feel.
cutsofftheirlimbs: ([glance] And here they come again.)

Yeah, but that doesn't mean people always say what they need to.

[ISAAC HAS KIND OF BEEN IN ENGINEERING TOO LONG he knows fuck and all about demons showing up, what a surprise.]

Yeah. Except in my case it was an alien-infested spaceship. I don't think anyone made it out by me, and it was a ship only maybe a class or two smaller than this one, if that.

Wheatley? The red-haired AI?

[OH. There is a mix of emotions. Tried to kill her, eh? Perhaps he could be of some use after all. The moron bit doesn't surprise AM at all, though.]

HAL, don't--

This is--this is what I told you about, don't listen to her, she's lying.
functioningperfectly: (houston we have a problem now)

[personal profile] functioningperfectly 2012-04-26 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
I understood when you warned me about GLaDOS...

[When he'd run into Chell, though, she hadn't talked. Hm.]

I've already told you that I don't believe that what we did in our home worlds has much bearing over how we should act here, Wheatley. I haven't changed my hypothesis.

[Pause.]

But I do believe you should stop lying to people. [And there's the disapproval. No he's not mad that you tried to kill people, he's mad you lied to him. Priorities are totally a thing HAL has sorted out!!!] You did, after all, admit that you attempted to kill both GLaDOS and Ms. Chell.
syllogism: (What is even the big deal.)

Sure is a good thing that he was created to be the dumbest moron who ever lived. It'd probably be a lot worse if the aim had been to create him as a competent being.
So he screwed up, and that's kinda the point since it's the way he was made. And he's sort of remorseless because most robots and AIs tend to be that way.
Think he'll actually be successful attempting to execute some crazy plot on this cosmic joyride?
monkeytailed: (Geez...I guess...)

[personal profile] monkeytailed 2012-04-26 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
That's rough. Sorry to hear. You think he's gonna try anything else here?
functioningperfectly: (all that i need is some time)

[personal profile] functioningperfectly 2012-04-26 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
[He speaks up before he can actually think about what to say,] Yes, I'm sure he is quite capable of it.

[And he actually sounds a little hostile there. Wow! Progress!

Well, maybe not hostile. Just slightly more threatening than usual.]


But I'm certain that he wouldn't.
monkeytailed: (Are you thinking what I'm thinking?)

[personal profile] monkeytailed 2012-04-26 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
Think he'll actually succeed? And if he tries anything, you know...to hurt you let me know and I'll take care of him for you.
monkeytailed: (Geez...I guess...)

[personal profile] monkeytailed 2012-04-26 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
Relax, sorry. I'm sure you can take care of yourself, but if you need help I just wanted to let you know I'll help. I can't just stand around and ignore it if some crazy guy's going around hurting people.
