Yes, definitely. Even if we plan on selling it, it will sell for more; and there's always the possibility that I turn out to be wrong, and that nobody wants it.
Do we have internet?
Try putting it on craigslist.

No. GG said that our cousin suspended her internet while she's away.

[Cheddarius]

Poops.
Internet cafe or something catering to night owls?
Otherwise, just go to sleep.

[Urist McMalaclypse]

Not sure when we're gonna sleep, but curling up in bed with a textbook doesn't seem like a bad idea for when the time comes.

[dragnar]

Build a better motor for our helper-bot out of parts from the dirtbike. It'll be fine as long as we fix it later, and our cousin couldn't possibly mind if we made a few... upgrades, while we're at it.

[Urist McOverlord]

Check if the bike's working, first.

If not, dismantle away. Maybe we can repair it eventually, and get some good cousin bonus points.

If yes, then I'd be more hesitant. After all, taking apart an old junker is less reprehensible than , say, destroying a brand new Harley.

Action 16
You go out and take a better look at the bike. Caroline used to be a bit of a risk taker back in the day before she settled down, but it doesn't look like its been used in years. It looks like it should still work - the keys are hanging from the wall next to it, so you give it a try. It coughs and sputters, but with a couple minutes of tweaking you've got it running again. She might mind you taking it apart (at least, if you don't get it back together again before she returns), but she probably wouldn't mind letting you use it to get around - well, except for the fact that its probably unlicensed. But whatever. Just let the law try to keep you down - you'll show them. They don't even know.

You are Wide Awake.
You are Slightly Hungry.
TIME: 7:30am

[Acanthus117]

eat a snack, then go to the internet cafe, and download the tools necessary for programming, like the libraries or whatever is needed.

[Cheddarius]

Investigate selling the robot
Investigate part prices
Investigate food prices, esp. ramen and mac  & cheese

Agreed. Heavily discounted, non-moldy plant matter should on the list too, for avoidance of scurvy.

We should also be looking into finding programming tools, like C++ or whatever they use (I'm no programmer)
