DLN 000 - Blues. [Action]

[whistles_the_blues]

[Blues hadn't expected his systems to start up again. He was certain the last time he powered down that it was for good that time. It seemed that was not how things were going to work this time around. Though, he was sure when he had shut down he near the ancient ruins of Lanfront, not a castle. This was interesting, had someone moved him? It would explain why he had powered up again, but why would someone go to all the trouble to move him this far away and then just leave him here.

It didn't make any sense, but just laying on the ground wasn't really helping this. He pulled himself up to his feet and began to walk toward the entrance of the castle. Perhaps he could find who ever had brought him here. Or at least find out just where here is.]

ooc: A scarf clad robot walks into your castle. What do?

[Kara just coming out of the kitchen with a huge mug of hot chocolate and a cookie in the other hand. Om nom nom. When she sees Blues, she casts him a look –– talk about weird hairstyles –– and shrugs to herself. Weird residents.]

[whistles_the_blues]

[Blues catches the look from the girl passing by. Well she was the first person he came across, may as well start asking from here. He can't help but wonder when the last time he actually talked to anyone was.]

Excuse me, do you happen to know who moved me here? Or why they dragged me out of the jungle to just leave me outside?

[kryptonian]

[She munches on a mouthful of cookie and swallows.]

Oh! You're new. This is Paradisa –– do you know anything about pocket universes? Rips in space-time?

[whistles_the_blues]

[He just kind of stares for a long moment.]

I've heard of them.

I don't see what that has to do with anything though.

[kryptonian]

Okay, well, that's the gist of it. You've been kidnapped out of space and time by a pocket universe called Paradisa.

[whistles_the_blues]

[That's a new one for him.]

Annnnnnnd you have any proof of this, right? Before I just up and believe you.

[kryptonian]

[shrug]

Not a lick of it. I just believe my friends who have been here for years.

[whistles_the_blues]

Well that's inconvenient.

[He doesn't really believe her, But it's not like he has a lot to go on at the moment.]

This universe obviously doesn't put much thought into what it takes. I'm sure it could have picked something that functions better. There was a jeep right next to me.

[kryptonian]

Sucks, huh? But it's not so bad.

[whistles_the_blues]

I never said it was bad. I just thought it may have had better options to pick from.

I hadn't exactly planned past getting to where I was. I didn't think I'd have anything after that.

[kryptonian]

So you've got a fresh start or something, then... and maybe you won't have to suggest a freaking car is a better option than you.

[whistles_the_blues]

Maybe you're right.

Well from where I was laying, it looked like it had a lot going for it at the time. Then again, it was left behind while I had decided to go there on my own.

[kryptonian]

[She frowns.]

So... were you supposed to be dead?

[cheerupemoborg]

[Hank notes the presence of new technology nearby, and decides to investigate. As he leaves the entrance, Hank spot Blues.

A resident, or something built by a resident?]

[whistles_the_blues]

[And Blues finds himself face to face with Hank. He can't help but stare a little. Is that another robot? Those fleshy bits looked even more realistic than Blues' shell. Who ever made this guy had to be good.]

Hey, you realize your parts are showing right? You may want to cover up so you don't rust.

[There was a journal tucked into the back of the Blues' belt, he hadn't noticed it yet though.]

[cheerupemoborg]

[He did, actually. Hank's good at details. Okay, so this msut be a new resident, no doubt about it.]

Don't worry. These alloys don't rust.

[Yay for robot residents! They needed more of those.]

[whistles_the_blues]

[Oh and he talks back. This was getting a bit more interesting for Blues. Most of the machines he had run into back home could only give automated responses, this was a bit of a treat for him]

Well, that's good. I'd still cover up that jaw though, it's unsettling.

[There's a brief pause.]

Were you dragged to this place too?

[cheerupemoborg]

[Finally, someone who thinks the Terminator look is creepy!]

It's more functional this way, and yes, I was. We all were.

[whistles_the_blues]

Well, I suppose if it improves your performance and wont rust.

[He glances around the room curiously for a moment.]

So just where are we? This place looks to nice to be a scrap yard.

[cheerupemoborg]

That's because it's not. It's another world called Paradisa.

You're its latest, ah... acquisition.

[whistles_the_blues]

Acquisition? You're saying this Paradisa just plucked me out the jungle and left me here? Why would it even bother?

[cheerupemoborg]

Pretty much.

From what we know so far, it feeds off our emotions, if not our very souls.

[whistles_the_blues]

Well it's not going to get much of a meal out of me.

It should have grabbed something without an expiration date.

[cheerupemoborg]

Why is that?

[whistles_the_blues]

There's an imbalance in my core.

I'll stop functioning eventually.
