((was sleeping so consider that the following happen at the same time as what was said above))

As the new arrivals and Crys went to the Med-Hall, the crow followed at a distance, hop-flying from roofs to roofs.

As they were entering into the building, the crow transformed into a fly, following them discreetly inside.

Once in, it stuck on the ceiling, out of view.

((Alright, back from work and ready for the introduction. Get a binary translator ready. And no, he's not saying "Zero One Zero..." think of it being like R2D2's beeps and boops.))

Suddenly, a unicorn buck with a blue coat and electric orange mane burst into the Med-Hall, a frantic and worried look on his face. He opened his mouth to speak, but when he did, all that came out was,
01001000 01100101 01101100 01110000 00100001 00100000 01001001 00100111 01101101 00100000 01101110 01100101 01110111 00100000 01100001 01101110 01100100 00100000 01101101 01111001 00100000 01110110 01101111 01101001 01100011 01100101 00100000 01101001 01110011 00100000 01100010 01110010 01101111 01101011 01100101 00100001

[Aonee]

Crys turns to the new AI, seemingly understanding what he was saying. "Oh? Oh! Here, step over here, I can help with that." Crys leads him over to some sort of chair, with a small, flat transparent screen hovering in midair near it.

[jacky2734]

Whatever courage the stallion had when he burst in suddenly disappeared when Crys spoke to him. He shrank back, but reluctantly followed her to the chair.

He said as he put a hoof to his head and sighed as if in defeat.

((To answer the inevitable question, yes, I plan on his voice getting fixed soon. Binary is a pain in the ass.))

[Aonee]

Crys rolls her eyes and shakes her head. "Don't worry, this has actually already happened a few times. The admins are still working out all the chinks in the spawning and rendering code, ya know?" She then points at the chair. "Now sit."

[jacky2734]

((Quick question, do the programs know the professions they're suppose to be in?))

[Aonee]

((Some do, some don't. You decide.))

The stallion sat down in the chair.

[Aonee]

Crys moves the screen over the stallion, examining the scrolling information and code. "Oh? And what is your job?"

[jacky2734]

The stallion became nervous nervous at that question and began rubbing the back of his head.

[Aonee]

"I don't see why it would be embarrassing." Crys presses a few things on the screen, which flashes, with a corresponding flash around the buck's throat. "There you go. Just some commented code from the compilation process. Try now."

[jacky2734]

Well, it's got more to do with how ponies treat me once they find out what it is.
The buck stopped talking, realizing what had happened.
I can talk? I can talk!!!
He jumped out of the chair and gave Chrys a big bear hug.
Ohthankyouthankyouyou'reamiracleworkerthankyouthankyo-
He stopped suddenly, realizing what he had just done. Quickly letting go of her, he shrank back so much he almost looked like a pony half his size.
Oh, oh no. I-I-I'm sorry miss. I sh-shouldn't have done that. I don't even know your n-n-n-name. I should j-just g-g-go now.

((Is the stutter too much? I'm not exactly sure how to do those, and I don't want to offend anyone.))

[Aonee]

Crys shakes her head. "Oh no, don't worry. It's fine." She tilts her head. "I guess I haven't told you my name yet, have I?" She holds out a hoof. "I'm Crystalane."

[jacky2734]

He shrank back a little at the outreached hoof, but slowly reached out and took it.

T-that's a nice name Miss Crystalane. Mine is Call Letters, b-but you can call me C-C-Cally... Uh, that is, if you want to.

[Aonee]

"Okay Cally. Nice to meet you. Hang around a bit, we should probably make a backup of you while you're here." Crys starts walking back to the room with the backup machine.

[jacky2734]

Oh. Okay. I guess I'll just s-s-sit out there, in the waiting r-room, until you're ready f-for me. Thank you again for fixing my voice.
Cally walked out into the waiting room and sat down in one of the chairs. he picked up one of the magazines, which curiously was dated six months ago even though the server had only been up for a couple of weeks, and began to read it.

((Does the character lose character development if they get restored to a copy that happened before the character development?))

[Aonee]

((Yup.))
Crys pops her head out. "Oh no, you're welcome to stay in here ya know. I'm sure Kronos and Kalypso won't mind."

[jacky2734]

((Sorry, I was eating supper.))

Cally looked up from his magazine.
Huh? Oh. are you sure? I mean, I don't want to be a b-b-bother. Especially if you already have *gulp* other ponies b-b-back there.

[Aonee]

"I'm sure Cally. They won't mind. Come on." Crys waves at him and pops back into the room. "Okay Kal, sorry about that. Your backup should be finished, let me check." Crys walks over to another floating screen, and scrolls along it. "Yup, all good." She then looks at Kronos. "You ready?"

[jacky2734]

Cally put down the old magazine, he'd already read it anyways,((Think about it for a second. )) and followed Crys back into the room. All the while trying all he can to make himself as small and unnoticeable as possible.

[Scyto Harmony]

"I suppose It's for the best..." He mutters, and steps into the machine as Kalypso leaves.

"Don't mind him," Kalypso says, happily, "Part of his programming is to be pessimistic."

[Aonee]

Again, the machine lights up, as it begins scanning Kronos. While waiting, Crys points to Cally. "Oh, and this is Call Letter."

[Scyto Harmony]

"Oh, Hello, I'm Kalypso!" She says, cheerily, "And that's my brother, Kronos." She gestures to the pony in the machine.

[jacky2734]

Startled by being recognized as existing, Cally made a noise-that in no way resembled a little filly screaming-and dashed behind a conveniently placed gurney.

[Scyto Harmony]

She giggles, "He's cute!"

"He's an idiot," Mutters Kronos from within the machine.

[jacky2734]

((An idiot who also knows how to use his crippling shyness to get a mare to say he's cute. ... The characters can't see the OOC spots, right?))

Cally poked his head above the gurney.
Really? Y-y-you think I'm c-c-c-cute?

[Scyto Harmony]

She giggles and nods.


"Don't take it personally," He groans, "She's programmed for Optimism."

[Aonee]

The light from the machine fades, and Crys checks the screen. "Okay, you're all set. Cally, your turn."

[Scyto Harmony]

Kronos steps out the machine.

[jacky2734]

*mumbles*And somepony is apparently pre-programmed to be a jerk*mumbles*
He got out from behind the gurney and walked back to Kalypso. Putting his hoof out for a shake.
May we try this again Miss Kalypso? My n-name is Call Letters, but you can call me Cally.
His eyes suddenly widened as if realizing something horrible. He suddenly shrank back from Kalypso as if expecting to get struck.
Nononono, that w-w-w-won't work. "Cally" could be used to refer to you andifsomebodysaiditandIansweredbuttheywantedyouthanyouwouldgetangryandhatemeandtheywouldhatemeandtheneveryonewouldhatemenonono...
He began to hyperventilate.
