_{[ The feed clicks on and shows a kid appearing no older than 13 seated back in a chair, curled knuckles against his face. His eyes look tired and expression rather thin. He's wearing a uniform of some sort, though pieces of it look tattered or stained. One of his legs bounces in his seat (aren't his shorts cute?) but after a moment of mulling over what to say, he leans forward, hands folding together neatly. ]}

I already lack faith in gathering information from anyone here, and yet, here I am with inquiries. Serious responses only.

_{[ What could this boy possibly be asking for?? Where is the best place to get ice cream? Hardly so. ]}

Has anyone has ever even attempted hacking into any confidential files that could be in the government's system that operates here? Alternatively, if anyone has ever attempted to assassinate the Queen?

_{[ Oh.. what.. ]}

If not, is there any place on this goddamn planet that serves coffee? Decent coffee. Every place here is a shit hole.

_{[ That's it. No thanks for your time or anything. ]}

Comments

(so I accidentally deleted the notification for this. apologies for taking so long!)

[pidgeypidge]

That's fair. I feel like there's a distinct lack of people willing to ask the less pleasant questions for curiosity's sake. Either way, I haven't heard anything one way or the other. But I'm hoping not. [Needless to say, she approves. Carry on, strange boy.]

And look. Coffee is pretty much a necessity as far as I'm concerned. [It also makes it a lot easier to avoid sleeping as much as she can. But that's neither here nor there.]

no worries!

[pubertytwice]

Well, that would explain how most people don't seem concerned. Nobody is taking any steps to do something like that.

Yeah. It's really the only thing in existence that doesn't disappoint me anymore.

[pidgeypidge]

Kinda hoping that never happens, if I'm being completely honest. [But knowing her luck, someone would probably get it into their head that it'd be a good idea.]

That's fair. Coffee doesn't tend to go missing on you, or say something ridiculous. [Those are both oddly specific examples. Hmm.]

[pubertytwice]

Does she talk much in regards to us? Or is it the same kind of praise we get from everyone else here for our assistance as Chroma-giving slaves?

_{[ wait.. ]}

That's a bit harsh, isn't it?

_{[ He meant to say that, honestly. ]}

[pidgeypidge]

Y'know. I'm not sure. I haven't really heard much either way.

[But to be fair, Pidge hasn't really been paying a lot of attention to her, specifically.]

Maybe a bit, but it's fine. I've probably heard worse. People have probably said worse, for that matter.
