[Walkabout to 4th Wall] Oops

[failgoyle]

Alright, we're under the hospital, past the airlock, there's a...thing down here, I dunno what it does...but I'm going to see if I can crack it like I did the airlock door. Seeing as how I'm the best-qualified and all...

[There's a long pause with a little bit of the psychic equivalent of Jules muttering coding nonsense to himself.]

Huh, that's weird, I wonder if--

[It is at this point that the shift back to Liminal occurs, and that everyone, not just the people on Walkabout, will be able to hear it.]

I DIDN'T DO IT!

But--but--but By asked me to! He didn't know?

[comebewe]

How the hell should I know what By knows? You're the idiot who turned it on without trying to see what the hell it even was first!

[failgoyle]

He just wanted me to be useful! I was trying to be useful!

[comebewe]

...he didn't actually tell you to fuck with the machine, did he? You just assumed.

[failgoyle]

He told me to make myself useful! That's what I'm best at, computers and things!

[comebewe]

You - just because you are good with computers doesn't mean you should go around turning mysterious machines on!

[failgoyle]

I didn't mean to turn it on, I was just trying to see if I could pull its basic programming to see what it did!

[comebewe]

Well apparently you did turn it on.

[failgoyle]

But I didn't mean to! Intent counts for something!

[comebewe]

Not much with you, it doesn't.

[failgoyle]

But I tried!

[comebewe]

[And at that, Matthew is just plain going to give up entirely. It's Jules - what's the point, really?]

not here

[if byerly were here he'd have a lot to say about you shifting the blame on him

sadly he is gone]
