Chell 01 - Video and Text

[testsubject1]

[Oh look. It's a new student. Who came right after graduation. Oops. But she fiddles around with the webcam, curious about the technology. Her face shows a mixture of wonder and apprehension, hidden behind the facade of a cold stare.

She fiddles with the device more and it switches off. She decides to communicate in text.]

Hello. I'm a new student here, though it seems the school year just ended.

[Another new student. Like most of them, GLaDOS files it under "things I don't care about". That is of course...until she read the name. She can't believe this. Really, she can't. What the hell is UP with this school? First Rick, then Caroline. Now Cave, Wheatley and finally Chell? Is this school TRYING to piss her off?

...whatever. Doesn't matter. Game face: set.

You can do this GLaDOS. Who knows? Maybe this will be amusing.]

Oh, hello there. Couldn't take the memo I wanted you gone, hmm? Typical, you never listen to a thing I say.

[This is a woman after Red's own heart.]

Yeah. Came a bit late. But there are summer classes.

[BACK OFF RED SHE'S MINE]

It is in your best interest that you leave before the next semester begins.

[It's Chell's favorite game (right up there with DON'T DIE and DESTROY ALL MONSTERS ROBOTS): REMEMBER THE SOUND OF THAT VOICE YOU HEARD. Go on, guess who it is. Guess.]

Now there's a face I'd never miss. Looks like you made it out alive after all, angel.

[ACTION because of reasons]

[Indeed, the school year at Smash has just ended, which means Samus is not obligated to be teaching here anymore. As a result, she's become increasingly absent on campus... but not completely so.

...She kind of sort of procrastinated in cleaning out her desk this year. Yeah, this'll take multiple trips to clean out.

Chell my find in her hallway explorations a blonde woman briskly walking up and down the hallway carrying a large box full of odds and ends; papers, supplies, wires, tools, scrap parts, works-in-progress... gun parts? Things that look like they might as well have been plucked straight out of Apert a science fiction movie.

One such thing slips out of the box and onto the floor in Samus's haste. It's a tiny gray and red cube, no bigger than three or four inches in size with little nub-like parts on the bottom.

Samus doesn't seem to notice it has fallen out.]

[NOT HERE YET...]

[HA HA HA HA HA

[ During her first visit to the school, Caroline had run into Chell, so she's actually happy to see her. There had been some confusion about the logo on her shirt and now she could apologize for the misunderstanding. It was important to keep good contact with future employees, after all. ]

I'm glad you could make it. Getting here early means that you'll have plenty of time to get acclimated to your new school. It will give you a head start once classes do begin.

[It was brief, but Cave was certain he spotted the logo of his precious Aperture Science while the woman fumbled with the device. The image of one Cave Johnson appears on her screen, wearing his patented salesman smile.]

Well hello there! Good to see new students arriving early. Judging from your shirt, I would imagine you know who I am, yes?

It's so refreshing to see that the good reputation of Aperture Sciences has spread so far that we have a fanclub. Don't worry, if you work hard, and your parents love you enough, they can sign you up for my business ethics course, assuring you some level of success in all future endeavors.

test, I mean, TEXT

[after_the_flower]

You're typing but I can see you.

[Link smiles and waves at the camera. A little glowing ball of blue floating around his head, wings fluttering idly.]

Hello. There are classes going on all summer. I'm taking three of them.

[He looks to be on the short side of 12 at best]

[Nephenee smiles and waves at the newcomer, before speaking.]

Hello. I noticed your video...I commend you on your refusal to abandon your education. Far too many do...

My name is Cyrus.

[heroflegend]

We're in the same predicament.

The best idea

[operatingbuddy]

Hello. I am pleased to meet you.
