Matrix 08 ~ [Dictated]

[simulatedmedic]

[It's early in the morning when the journals burst out with the following.]

Please state the nature of the medi-- [A pause.] Oh, really?! This is getting to be very tiresome!

[A sigh, before this is directed to the journals.]

This is the Emergency Medical Hologram speaking. If someone would be so kind to tell me how long my program was offline this time, I would be grateful.

[Here's a Doctor, rather to the point and succinct.] Hello, Doctor. Holographic emitter problem or the castle's doing? What is the last that you recall, or a date?

[simulatedmedic]

The last thing I recall is talking to a rather uncouth young man before working on connecting some of the holo-emitters in the clinic.

Unfortunately, I can't recall a date, and I hope there isn't a problem with my mobile emitter

[toobravehearted]

[He sighs and starts to flip through the journal, holding it open at this page.] I'd be happy to take a look at your emitter if you require. Ah, here we are. Does the beginning of October sound about right to you? That is a long time to be offline.

[Bilbo vaguely remembers the mechanical doctor from the first time he entered Paradisa. What was he again? A holo-something? Bilbo is never any good at futuristic things, as he's only a humble hobbit.]

Program? I am assuming this has something to do with your alarm clock of sorts?

[simulatedmedic]

No, I am the program. It seems there's either a problem with my mobile emitter, or the castle deactivated me for a period of time.

[Given the fact that he hasn't unlocked the deactivation sequence in the computer yet. It would be impossible for anyone to turn him off.]

[unexpected_adventures]

Oh, I see. [Or at least, he thinks he does.]

Why would the castle want to shut you down? Isn't that like killing somebody? [He didn't have much of a clue really.]
