"But if I had a computer on a cart I could talk with my internet friends like we're talking now. So what makes that different from this? It looks like you're spending all day on the computer."

[SOLDIER First]

The brunette waves back. Rather carefully, Tsuneo might notice, which isn't to say she doesn't do it with a smile on a face and as much energy as you can muster into a light movement of the hand.

"What, are you practicing?"

[Bluexdog]

Those people looking for a map would eventually find, in front of the main school building, a few tables set up that have maps and other documents on them. There are several students behind these desks, handing them out to anyone who passes.

Kira grabs one of each document and the map

[TheBiggerFish]

"So cooooool! Why do you need a robot?"

"But if I had a computer on a cart I could talk with my internet friends like we're talking now. So what makes that different from this? It looks like you're spending all day on the computer."

"I can't go out of my house under normal circumstances without extremely strong immunosuppressants?  And I'm interacting with actual people in actual places, not Internet people on the Internet."

Gerald shrugs.  (The robot does not.)

[USEC_OFFICER]

"Yes, but we're interacting with you through the internet. So it's not that different for us." She jabs her finger at the robot's screen. "For all we know, you could be a forty-two year old guy perving on schoolgirls."

[TheBiggerFish]

"I don't think it's possible to fake a live human in real time yet."

Gerald seems mildly amused by this conjecture.

"Besides.  This place requires, y'know, documentation thst you actually exist.  I'm pretty sure nobody would go to those lengths."

((Just a reminder, Gerald's face/upper body is actually on the screen.))

[USEC_OFFICER]

"That's why you don't do it in real time. You record it all ahead of time and splice frames as needed. It's possible. That would explain why your lips don't sync up perfectly with your words." Hitomi seems mildly amused by this conjecture as well. Clearly they aren't being serious here.

[Adragis]

The brunette waves back. Rather carefully, Tsuneo might notice, which isn't to say she doesn't do it with a smile on a face and as much energy as you can muster into a light movement of the hand.

"What, are you practicing?"

"Nope, just waving~!"

[IamanElfCollaborator]

"Oooooor he's a robot and it looks cool!"

[TheBiggerFish]

"That's why you don't do it in real time. You record it all ahead of time and splice frames as needed. It's possible. That would explain why your lips don't sync up perfectly with your words." Hitomi seems mildly amused by this conjecture as well. Clearly they aren't being serious here.

"I've been discovered, oh nooo."
Deadpan.  He then cracks a smile for a brief moment.

"Oooooor he's a robot and it looks cool!"

"Wait, what?

Also, have we introduced ourselves yet?  I'm Gerald."

[SOLDIER First]

Tsuneo waves back.

[IamanElfCollaborator]

"I meant the robot thing this is! One of those telepresence robots, right? My uncle makes them!"

[Adragis]

The girl makes her way towards him, weaving side to side a little despite the lack of obstructions. "Hey~!"

[TheBiggerFish]

"Yes, exactly.  I made the arms though.

Cool, though.

Who's he?  Er, and who're you?"

[SOLDIER First]

"Hi."
