Library, Sunday 12/04

Raven was at the library early today, anxious to begin looking through the books for any mention of the "Auditors" Zoe had spoken of on the radio. She clung to what little optimism she had left that they would find a way to stop whatever it was devouring worlds and people, and reverse it for their safe returns. But if a place as powerful with magic as Kaeleer had fallen, she wasn't sure how long Fandom could stand. And the Netherverse was almost gone.

Had he tried economical math?

"Keyword searches wouldn't hurt," Ender agreed.

By now, he was almost relieved to see someone who wasn't falling apart, even if he knew Tony was probably repressing. "What are you working on?"

Don't be silly, Ender.

"Physics. Lost all my access back home on Friday and I was hoping to find another Reed Richards to talk to, but..."

No dice.

Ender nodded swiftly. "Comms seem to be cut off," he said. "Which is pretty inconvenient."

"Is anywhere still up?" He'd been running periodic scans, but those numbers had become smaller and smaller.
endsthegame: (determined set)

"None of my channels seem to be working," Ender said, and shook his head. "Even my last connection to home broke off yesterday."

Tony let out a breath, putting his books down on the table before taking a seat. "We'll figure it out. We have to, right?"
endsthegame: (headtilt)

"Of course we will," Ender said without hesitation. "We just need to work out the mechanics of this thing, whatever it is."

Nodding, Tony opened one of the books. Work to do and all. "You okay?"
endsthegame: (is assessing the situation)

"I'm fine," Ender said. He looked perfectly fine.

He wasn't. "Been in the lab?"

Re: Mod the Library [Library 12/04]

[identity profile] hoorayimrich.livejournal.com 2011-12-04 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course he wasn't.

"Since... Monday, yeah." That wasn't odd at all.

"How many readings did you take?"

Not 'did'. How many, yes.

"Sweeping scan. Every hour." Ender was smart, he could do the math.
endsthegame: (is looking up)

Re: Mod the Library [Library 12/04]

Ender nodded slowly. "Did you find anything?"

"Just how fast things stopped being where they should."
endsthegame: (paying attention)

"Does it come in spurts?" Ender asked, "Or is it a consistent thing across the board?"

"If there's a pattern, I haven't found it yet," Tony admitted. "It's, like, anti-pattern."
endsthegame: (judgeyface)

"Anti-pattern...?" Ender prompted. "What does that mean...?"

"Any time I think I have it figured out, it changes. Like a mutating virus."
endsthegame: (brushing past dark)

Ender frowned thoughtfully. "What if this thing is sentient?"

Tony shot him a look. "That's a little scary of a thought, you know."
endsthegame: (is assessing the situation)

"It's something we'll have to take into account," Ender noted. "What if 'The Auditors' is just... this thing, whatever it is?"

So close, and yet so far.

"Or it's like a computer program and they're the programmers?"

Let him have his tech analogies, Ender.
endsthegame: (hm.)

"A computer program that's overwriting reality?"

SEEMS LEGIT.

"It's possible."

Better than a dude in purple armor eating all the planets!

Tony nodded, thinking it over again. "But how could you even make something that powerful?"
endsthegame: (ender is in charge)

"By having a big enough computer," Ender said dryly.
