3rd Test: Summer Announcement

[did_well_enough]

Hello again everyone, this is Ms. GLaDOS. To those of you who are new and did not have the pleasure of being in my class, I am the computer teacher in this...fine academy.

[How did she say that with a straight face?]

At any rate, it's been a while since we last spoke, but I've been terribly busy. As such, I couldn't bother wasting my time with such trivial affairs as this. Luckily, I've finished my work so I can take a bit time off to address my students. Since you all mean so much to me, I've decided to host a summer class for Computers 101. That being said, I would like to be able to get into the more complex aspects of computers. Ergo, if you are uninformed in them, I strongly suggest taking up the summer class.

I'm not going to be babying anyone here, so don't expect handouts. You want to learn? Pay attention. That is all.

[PRIVATE TO CAVE JOHNSON]

Sir, the project you requested has been completed. Feel free to stop by my office to pick it up at any time.

I wouldn't do that...

[ He sniffed back his guilt.
He didn't throw it, GLaDOS. It... hit the bed a little too hard, bounced, and smacked into the wall. ]

But! Yeah. Gotcha.

[ He's about to drop the machine down on the desk, but stops himself short and slowly places it down. Maybe he could be reckless elsewhere, but Teach has a helluva grip and he wasn't about to be subjected to that again.

He pushes the top open to start the machine up and looks back to GLaDOS. ]

There's one thing I really wanna learn before anythin' else: Can you show me how to make messages private?

[ Because he ain't got a clue. Recent events have made Sonic realize he's going to need more discretion. ]

[The teacher nods, pulling up a chair to sit down in front of the laptop.]

Of course. It's simple, really. I don't know how you didn't figure it out yet, but I suppose I should be grateful you can at least turn the computer on...unlike some other students.

[She logs on to the network and opens a message to work on.]

Alright, you see the drag bar on the upper left hand corner? Click on it and it gives you the option to filter away from certain people, filter to certain people, or to make your entry private to one or more people. Once it's been selected, you search for those that you wish to filter to, filter from, or private and then type the message.

[She turns to the hedgehog.]

Simple enough for you?

[I give you a total success yet failure.]

[bluestreaker]

Think so... Alright!

[ Rolling up the sleeves he doesn't have, Sonic spins the laptop in his direction while remaining beside her, knocking out her view in order to try it on his own.

After a moment, he looks satisfied with himself and leans back into her view. ]

Man, I got this down.

[ And however GLaDOS receives her messages Does her butt tingle or something?, she was going to find herself with a private video chat heading her way. ]

[Oh Sonic.. XDDD]

[did_well_enough]

[yes her butt goes numb for a bit when she gets mail

Once the message was sent, the AI's headset lights up. She pushes the button on it, and a holographic screen is emitted in the air, with...Sonic on the other line.]

Well. At least we know you're not hopeless.

[bluestreaker]

'Course not. You doubted me?

[ Who wouldn't.

But now he was talking to the camera instead of the teacher right there. ]
