[Have the sounds of an agitated AI storage united coming through the journal as the text appears.] Nononono. Not this again. You have got to be fucking kidding me. Castle...

I do not like this. Let me out of here. Why?

(OOC note: The noises would be roughly similar to the ones being made by the Epsilon AI unit in the very beginning of this episode.)

Definitely. It's Washington.

And the only reason I'm not having a panic attack is that the castle gave me this experience before.

Any experience with AIs Spartan?

Re: [Text]

[noblefive]

Washington?

...Damn, you okay? Nothing...else out of the ordinary.

[He pauses.] Some experience, yeah.

[Noble had their own AI, after all]

[Text]

[dontpatr0nizeme]

Otherwise, I'm fine. Not damaged, and I actually know what I'm doing this time around. Don't like it in here though...

[noblefive]

Well, uh...

Anything I can do? [This was all so new to him.]

I mean, the only thing I can transfer you into is my armour.

[text]

[dontpatr0nizeme]

Not particularly that I can think of at the moment...

I really don't want to be implanted after last time.

[So grateful that text doesn't relay his absolute terror of that idea.]

Assuming "implanted" means transferred into the armour?

[noblefive]

Well, where are you? In your room?

[He pauses] I can at least deliver you to Carolina if you want?

yup, RvB canon term

[dontpatr0nizeme]

Most likely, I'm in my room. Happened last time. I can't see what's outside the storage unit. It's a faint awareness. I can pick up audio around me and physical contact.

That would work...

Don't AIs act differently when plugged into Freelancers than SPARTANs?

[noblefive]

Well, where's your room, I'll come get you.

As far as I know from researching it, no.

[dontpatr0nizeme]

[text]
Room is 322.

I read up a bit on it. An AI can have control of the suit, but a SPARTAN has override access

[noblefive]

[Dictated/Action]

I'll be there in a bit. What should I do if the door's locked?

['cause Jorge is perfectly capable of smashing the door down, he just doesn't want to unless necessary. Or if the castle'll let him.

Either way, Jorge is soon standing outside of Wash's door.]

RvB canon AI, not Halo. The overrides aren't so open. Not that he needs them.

[dontpatr0nizeme]

[Text, filtered to Jorge]
Hold on. Locking mechanism is coded. Here. [Have a code for the panel next to the door.] Don't break the lock.

I thought the override would be in the Neural Interface used to load the AI in.

[noblefive]

Roger.

[Jorge punches the code in, not literally, and the door opens as expected.]

Okay... What am I looking for?

((OOC: Also, I miss subject line conversations. :P))

Wash canonly verbally used overrides on Delta when Delta was implanted in another person.

[dontpatr0nizeme]

The thing making the noise is a storage unit. And trust me, it'll be noisy.

If you aren't sure, place your hand on the item. I'll know when you touch this thing.

[noblefive]

[Jorge takes a few steps into the room before he catches sight of something. It seems to be making a lot of noise.

He walks over and places a hand on the device]

This it?

[dontpatr0nizeme]

[The noise goes quiet at the contact.] Forgot how strange that feels...

[noblefive]

Take that as a yes.

[He carefully picks the device up]

[dontpatr0nizeme]

...

Yes. [Trying to not panic.]

[noblefive]

Well, don't worry, you're in safe hands with me.

[He takes a step towards the door.] Where to?

[dontpatr0nizeme]

Ira Tower. Room 2112.

[noblefive]

Got it.

[And Jorge starts walking, still eyeing the AI container.]

So, this has happened to you before?

Text

[dontpatr0nizeme]

Yes.

[noblefive]

Not a happy memory, I gather.

[He grunts] I wonder what the hell this place has in store for me.

[dontpatr0nizeme]

Let's just say I spent a fair bit of it either terrified or being tortured and call it good.

[noblefive]

Tortured?

... By who?

[dontpatr0nizeme]

Other AIs. They're gone now.
