[ looks at this shitpost and just nods slowly.
anyway. what the hell. i assume he can just see the screen since it's like holographic-ish and so he's watching luke go... ]
Do you just...keep going?

[ looks fastly at shoma and looks fastly away. ]
So what's the endgame? [ do you actually win? he doesn't seem to care that much because he's curiously watching the combinations go since it can, actually, go on forever. ]

[ MIAMI??? ]
...sure. [ what else do they have to do right now? so he will join luke where he's at, looking at the hologram before grabbing for water and smoke to create fog. ] And you just keep adding?
[ ....drags fire as well. did you know if you add buddha to fog you get enlightenment. yay. ]

[I don't even remember what I did I think it was like "heat" and "city." Hilarious. WHY DOES APPLE + OCEAN MAKE APPLE PIE.]
It looks like it, though there's probably a way to access the algorithm. [And see the whole database, but where's the fun in that!] ...Why is it so hard to get to "ice"?

[ the same reason penguin + apple makes pineapple. ]
But even so it sounds like the chain can go on for a while so long as you can create the right combination. [ would he also be fine seeing the algorithm for himself to understand the rhyme and reason? sure! is he going to pick it apart? eh, maybe later. instead, he's squinting at the screen and trying a combination of water and cloud but only getting rain. ] Maybe it needs to be combined with something else cold? Like if you could make ice cream and pair it with rain.
[ the worst thing in the world is that this is now going to be a new source of fixation. ]

[I FINALLY GOT ICE and also flying Buddha]
Hmm... I think I'd need ice to get ice cream, but maybe one of these space choices? They're the coldest things I've got on here, since I got distracted with a chain of volcano words.
[They're never going to solve any murders at this rate]

[ flying buddha. amazing. ]
True...maybe if you get something like the moon? Or Pluto, since it's the furthest planet. [ you say that but i would believe in britt making us solve and infinite craft puzzle for her murder. ]

[ squinting...he moves to match tides with tuxedo because it makes zero sense and gets poseidon instead. ]
...we are getting further and further from ice and instead myths are real. [ what is this game. ] Think they put this on the I.R.I.S. because they knew it'd keep us busy?

[The way I get sucked into this game every time I go to tag you. He matches marriage with marriage out of curiosity and gets divorce. YIKES.]
Probably. At least until they put us to work. [Nyeh... he pauses, glancing over at Shoma.] How do you feel about it?

[ honest to god me. anyway i hate to say this but he sees the marriage + marriage = divorce and he just. frowns and immediately tries to match it with something else to make it go away. ]
Which part, the work? Or the obvious distractions to make sure we're going to work? [ good question. ] ...if feels weird to think that they needed this many people just for some deliveries.
[ which is to say he does not believe any of this in the slightest. ]

[Ty. Your characters.
At least Luke picks up on it; he taps the bottom of the screen to sweep away the current list, starting over with pigeon and bottle to get message, for some reason.]
Some corporations are big enough that it would make sense... Pax has about eight hundred different branches, for instance. But an organization that big wouldn't make a "mixup" like this.
[Conveniently recruiting a bunch of people who just so happen to react to cryosleep badly enough for collective amnesia? Yeah, no.]

[ this one was not my fault.
carrier pigeon... ]
Oh no, I get that. Earth has a lot of big corporations and stuff, too. But...yeah. I could understand recruiting that many people but not doing it and nobody remembering how this happened. That's a lot of convenient memory loss. Even more concerning is the argument that it shouldn't be a concern.

[ at some point luke is going to find shoma probably sitting in the hallway somewhere with roboji, i.r.i.s. activated. he seems to be reading something and actively taking notes? the emotional vibe is very focused, though there are low threads of worry seeping from him based on whatever he's doing...
he's concentrating enough he doesn't notice anyone else is around, but roboji the robot does. it's happily rolling up to luke to greet him with a handshake. why. ]

[I do not believe you]
It's pretty suspicious that they can't contact the people in charge. I'm not an astronaut, but I'm pretty sure manned voyages always maintain contact with people off-ship.
[Even if this wasn't hella suspicious, it's super incompetent? Like. Bro.]

It'd be incredibly stupid not to because it's too easy for something to go wrong. [ he just. says this. ] How is anyone supposed to monitor the mission if there's no connection? It sort of makes you wonder if it's more that they just don't want to. Or they're being told they can't.
[ for...some reason. ]
[ for...some reason. ]
[ yes absolutely he has his little hat and also his little apron, it's stupid. also, i'm glad luke's like this. shoma finally pulls himself out of his cloud of work once he hears someone talking, and he turns to watch this happen. ]
Roboji. [ that's who, not what. ] It's a robot I made back home. [ roboji sways a little from side to side once they've shaken hands, pleased. ]

I guess you could say that. I just really like them, so I've been studying how to build and create them for a while. Roboji's my second one. [ like the second son...idiot child. ]
[ :thonk: ]
Right? I haven't worked with a ton of AIs yet, so I'm still learning what can be done and what combinations can be made. But I want to study more to figure it out.
[ if college is even an option…
but he tilts his head a little to that. ]
What did you study? I'd assume bioengineering given your profile, but your skillset's pretty varied.
