Normally, I wouldn't bother with something like this, but I can't say I have anything better to do.  This isn't Tokyo and it would appear that the Final Day has come and gone.

This is certainly an ironic proposition for a Dragon of Earth.  Recruited to help salvage the human race?  Given a list of rules and regulations to follow?  I had a... I guess you could call him a friend, back home.  He would be extremely amused by all of this.  I mostly find it annoying.

I will admit that the population here does appear somewhat more interesting than the boring, useless humans in Tokyo.  Maybe there will actually be people here worth talking to.  I might even try attending the local school.  What sort of athletic activities are available?

I would like to know where I might obtain computer components.  Although the technology is more advanced here than it was at home (this "wireless" access is a bit disconcerting and will take some getting used to), I find the government-issued computers to be insufficient.  I miss BEAST, though I doubt I have the space to rebuild him in these quarters.

The selection of computer parts is meager, at best. The government has technology more advanced than what we've each been given, but it seems they want to keep something of that level from the public.

[hardlywired.livejournal.com]

Hmm. I'll have to see what's available.

I assume that the government network is seperate from the public network. No system is completely isolated, though. This should be fun to crack.

'Crack'?

[hardlywired.livejournal.com]

Connect to. I like accessing and making friends with new systems.

There is something wrong with your signal to noise ratio.

Another computer geek? Hi~

[Filter: Scud]

[hardlywired.livejournal.com]

I don't know if I would term myself a "computer geek", as this is an innate power.

Hello. My name is Satsuki. Are the people here always so sensitive when you read their filtered content?

[scud]

It is? Lucky! That's a pretty sweet deal.

I'm Scud, obviously. And uh I don't really know 'cause I don't tell people that I can read their stuff~ I mean I know there are some of us who can do it, I used to kinda be a hacker so it's my thing, but it's not something we really flaunt.

Yeah you might wanna not tell them you're doing that so you don't ruin it for the rest of us. People will just stop making filtered posts if they know we can read 'em.

The technology here kinda sucks, but I might be biased by knowing that if I break they probably can't fix me. Sigh.

[hardlywired.livejournal.com]

If you break? What are you made of?

[copier.livejournal.com]

Well, I don't mean so much in the physical sense. The AI technology here really isn't up to par with where I came from.

I might be able to. I mean I'm not sure but.

I'm not planning on needing it, if I can avoid it. But I'll keep it in mind!

Well since I've already been outed I might as well say hey, what's up, all your private angst are belong to us.

Hello. You are a hacker, then?

"Are belong" is improper sentence structure.

I can hack, it's not all I do though.

Yeah I'm aware, it's from an old video game with hilarious translation from the Japanese.

Dunno bout computer parts, but they've got a whole buncha scrap in the deadlands. That is, the uninhabited bits of town. Salvaged a fair amounta useless junk from there, could be you find what you're lookin for.

[hardlywired.livejournal.com]

That may be useful. Thank you for the information.

[ex_aint86]

Any time. So what's a Dragon of Earth?

[deliberately]

I wouldn't go to school if I were you. Not if you didn't have to.

[hardlywired.livejournal.com]

Why not? I think it might be useful for me to at least visit.

[deliberately]

If you're under eighteen, you should be registered, attendance is a requirement. But listen, a bunch of kids who call themselves the Discipline Committee are pretty hard on people they think are rule-breakers, specifically uniform infractions. Unless you can hold your own in a fight, you'd better dress right.
