I12DT: Happy Food Day, Have a Lunch Thread

by **Emily Inque** » Fri Nov 29, 2013 2:04 pm

"I am glad to hear it," Emily says, smiling brightly.

by **ASHLIE** » Fri Nov 29, 2013 2:06 pm

"And now you are happy. Everybody wins!" she says cheerfully.

by **Emily Inque** » Fri Nov 29, 2013 2:14 pm

"No, I am only optimistic," Emily says, "In truth, I feel quite unfulfilled."

Brigid emerged from the line after having gotten her food. She spotted Ashlie, and gave a bit of a sheepish wave.

by **Emily Inque** » Fri Nov 29, 2013 2:51 pm

Assuming she is being waved at, Emily waves back.

by **ASHLIE** » Fri Nov 29, 2013 4:04 pm

Ashlie waves back, only a little bit mechanically. Apparently some motions need a little bit of a work still.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Fri Nov 29, 2013 4:06 pm

Brigid took her tray over to the table, looking Ashlie over.

"So this is you, huh?"

by **Emily Inque** » Fri Nov 29, 2013 4:32 pm

"Who else is she supposed to be?" Emily asks.

by **ASHLIE** » Fri Nov 29, 2013 6:27 pm

"Yes. I am sorry for the deception."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Fri Nov 29, 2013 6:28 pm

"I'm not angry or anything, I'm just getting used to it, you know?"

"Mind if I sit with you guys?"

by **ASHLIE** » Fri Nov 29, 2013 6:34 pm

"Go right ahead." she says before turning to Emily. "I'm a self-aware program. I used the hard-light emitters in the school in an attempt to fit in with the students. The experiment was a success so I decided to stop deceiving them about my true nature. Technically my full designation is Autonomous System for Heuristic Learning, Intelligence and Exploration."

by **Emily Inque** » Fri Nov 29, 2013 7:16 pm

"Alright," Emily says, accepting all of this fairly easily and without question. She turns to Brigid. "We have not met. I am Emily Ruiko. I am a teenage mutant who ran away from an abusive home and came here to be sheltered."

by **ASHLIE** » Fri Nov 29, 2013 7:18 pm

Ashlie's head does a little mechanical twitch and whir. "That is conflicting data." she says.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Fri Nov 29, 2013 7:21 pm

Brigid looked between the two of them with a bit of confusion.

"I'm Brigid Plunder. Nice to meet you."

by **Emily Inque** » Fri Nov 29, 2013 7:24 pm

"No, it is not. You are mistaken," Emily says to Ashlie.

"It is a pleasure to meet you, Miss Plunder."

by **ASHLIE** » Fri Nov 29, 2013 9:50 pm

Ashlie looks at Brigid. In the background she cross-references the last name she knew her to have and comes up with yet another discrepancy. She did know the reason for Brigid's fake last name though so she comes to the (for her) genius conclusion that Emily must also be trying to hide her real last name from her classmates. Her head swivels back to Emily and one of her optical sensors closes for two-point-three seconds.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Fri Nov 29, 2013 10:20 pm

"Uhm... just Brigid is fine."

by **Emily Inque** » Fri Nov 29, 2013 10:26 pm

"Oh? I assumed..." Emily smiles, "Alright. I am sorry for being presumptuous. I did not mean to cause you any distress, Brigid."

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Nov 30, 2013 12:31 am

"I have noticed that most students prefer to be called by their first names." she nods, happy that her particular experience is apparently useful for Emily.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Sat Nov 30, 2013 12:32 am

"Yeah. I'm, you know, not much for formality."

by **Emily Inque** » Sat Nov 30, 2013 12:34 am

"Really? That is unfortunate. Someone must have been lax in your training," Emily says.

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Nov 30, 2013 12:37 am

"From what I have seen Brigid has actually been very diligent in her training."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Sat Nov 30, 2013 12:39 am

"Well, my training here. What my dad wants me to do is a different story."

by **Emily Inque** » Sat Nov 30, 2013 12:41 am

"Your father?" Emily asks, tilting her head, "Like, your biological father?"

by **Brigid Plunder** » Sat Nov 30, 2013 12:52 am

"Yeah, he's... pretty weird and kind of a big deal."

by **Emily Inque** » Sat Nov 30, 2013 1:55 pm

Emily looked confused for a moment and then her eyes widened. She looked shocked and a little bit sad, "Oh. I see."

"I am very sorry for your situation," Emily says.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Sat Nov 30, 2013 3:06 pm

"...did you just figure out who he is?"

by **Emily Inque** » Sat Nov 30, 2013 3:17 pm

"No. How would I know that?" Emily says, "I simply understand why you are here."

"I understand if you do not wish to talk about it."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Sun Dec 01, 2013 12:13 am

"You... probably don't know what my situation is."

"I really should be a little more open about it, though."

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Dec 01, 2013 12:17 am

"Of course. You should never be ashamed of who you are," Emily says, "At least, that is what my great-grandmother told me."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Sun Dec 01, 2013 12:28 am

"Well..." she took a deep breath.

"...my dad's Kevin Plunder. AKA Ka-Zar, Lord of the Hidden Jungle."

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Dec 01, 2013 12:32 am

Emily just looks blankly at Brigid.

"I do not know who that is."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Sun Dec 01, 2013 1:05 am

"...well then that's one thing out of the way."

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Dec 01, 2013 1:09 am

"I am sorry. I only recently arrived on this planet. There is much I do not know," Emily says, "I am glad you were honest with me. It is an important quality."

by **ASHLIE** » Sun Dec 01, 2013 1:46 am

"Then you should be honest too, Emily." Ashlie notes.

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Dec 01, 2013 1:48 am

"I assure you that I do not know what you mean, Ashlie. I am a normal teenage girl."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Sun Dec 01, 2013 5:09 pm

"...who just said she's not from this planet," she quirked a brow.

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Dec 01, 2013 5:34 pm

"That is not normal?" Emily asks.

by **ASHLIE** » Sun Dec 01, 2013 5:41 pm

"No. But a lot of people lie for a lot of reasons. It's hard to understand which lies are part of normal interactions and which ones aren't." Ashlie nods.

by **Emily Inque** » Sun Dec 01, 2013 5:42 pm

"I am not a liar," Emily says sharply.
