"Each of your Eggbabies has a built in computer which registers the amount of care-- or lack of care-- it's given. These readings will determine your grade. As you can see the babies exhibit a wide range of emotions and expressions in need. It's your job to fill those needs." How to:✦ Leave a comment with your character's name and fandom. Others will reply ✦ Congratulations, the two of you are now in charge of an Eggbaby. You can pretend it's for class or, for those who aren't in school, you can assume the baby is some sort of important mission. It is your job to take care of and keep the baby happy. If you drop the baby, you fail. You can not turn it off. Remember, this is a joint effort. This is a very important assignment that determines if you pass/fail the class or save the world. ✦ You can RNG a number between 1 and 8 to find out what kind of situation you're in. ✦ Good luck! Options: 1. Other plans. You had other plans but now you aren't sure if you can do them because of this baby. Try to convince your partner to do you a favor or else you'll have to drag the baby along with you. 2. Broke baby. Something is seriously wrong with this baby. It won't stop crying no matter what you do and you really wish this thing had an off switch. 3. Lost baby. What do you mean where's the baby? Don't you have it? Wait, you mean, you don't? FU-- WHERE'S THE BABY?! 4. Perfect baby. Your baby never cries. In fact, it doesn't really do much of anything. Wow, this project sure is easy! . . . Dude, it keeps staring at me. 5. Not my baby. This isn't your baby but you're watching it for a friend until they get back from that super important meeting. They've been gone all day and you hope they'll get back soon. 6. Twins. You're taking care of your baby and someone else's baby. (bonus option: you're taking care of another baby and another and another and another. . .) 7. MY BABYYYY! What the hell did you do? Your baby is broken. You've failed your assignment. Maybe you can put it together and no one will ever notice or try to steal someone else's baby. 8. Crack baby. Roll again, combine prompts, or make up your own scenario. |

With what happened with Circe, actually. She... punched me in the face. I didn't know about half of what she told me... not until you did.

Apparently deciding that his jacket is dry enough, he puts the garment back on, frowning slightly. More shivers keep coming--it's just too cold.*
Circe is one of Rex's EVO friends, from back home. *This is a question.*
Is she alright now?
no subject
Date: 2012-03-08 02:05 am (UTC)... She is. And--she's doing better.
no subject
Date: 2012-03-08 02:21 am (UTC)I'm glad.
From the start I was hoping that the situation back home would be temporary. Unfortunately, things immediately got complicated.

Date: 2012-03-08 03:00 am (UTC)... Everything gets complicated when the Consortium is involved.

*His distant expression melts seamlessly into a dispassionate inspection of the blanket wrapped snugly around his shoulders. Before they can delve any further into darker subjects, he holds up a handfull of fluffy cloth.*
Caesar. How long did it take you to bend chemically stable objects?
no subject
Date: 2012-03-10 05:43 am (UTC)None of my first objects where chemically unstable, but like I showed you, I started with tortillas. I had a capacitor or two blow up on me, but nothing major. Why? Are you still having issues?

Date: 2012-03-10 05:47 am (UTC)... I tried to bend up a fire extinguisher for the third try, but there was a flaw in the casing's thickness. You may have noticed that I cleaned that side of the lab while you were out.
no subject
Date: 2012-03-10 05:52 am (UTC)I was wondering about that. [The cleaned part of the lab. He had noticed, but didn't see why he would bring it up.] A fire extinguisher is rather complex to be Bending up before you're more advanced. What else were you attempting?

no subject
Date: 2012-03-10 06:09 am (UTC)So it got a little more baked and crispy than you had planned?
[He's definitely amused.]

Date: 2012-03-10 03:01 pm (UTC)Hmm. That's new. ... ... ... Perhaps you should start with something less complicated. I found that starting off with complicated items right off the bat only caused problems.
... did you manage to capture it?
no subject
Date: 2012-03-10 03:08 pm (UTC)What would you suggest in the way of some simple bending exercises?

Date: 2012-03-10 03:11 pm (UTC)Starting out with simple parts. Such as--
[AND SUDDENLY THERE IS A LOUD CRY FROM HIS ARM THAT MAKES HIM JUMP.]

Date: 2012-03-10 03:12 pm (UTC)... Oops. Sorry about that, little guy....
[WAIL WAIL WAIL. APOLOGY NOT ACCEPTED.]

Date: 2012-03-11 03:13 pm (UTC)*Cesar picks up his pace, drawing even with his double. The baby is still carrying on at that point, and the older Salazar is getting a look that might people worried for an actual state of preservation for the egg baby worried: thoughtful curiosity. What sort of things could interrupt the program cycle in such a way that wouldn't cause some kind of catastrophic reaction? Maybe the C(a)esars could reset--*
*The sneeze comes out of nowhere, and Cesar barely has time to turn his face away from the other two. Whoa--that was unexpected. Have another sneeze! This one gets directed to his shoulder, and after it he frowns at himself, sniffling.*

Let's get you home before you actually get sick.
[He quickens the pace.]
no subject
Date: 2012-03-11 09:36 pm (UTC)*Cesar quickens his own pace a little more, once again. It's a good thing they hadn't had a chance to wander far--otherwise this bitterly cold weather would be even more of a nuisance than it already is.*
*The lab grows in their line of sight, and Cesar heads straight for it, not seeming to every really notice the house beside it. He knows there are people who live there that he would recognize. He also knows he has no urgent business there, and that he could theoretically continue living in his alternate's lab until he learns bending well enough that Nautilus lets him go back home. It's a workable plan, as far as he's concerned.*
*Another sneeze distracts him from his thoughts, prompting a return of his frown. This won't last long--he just needs to dry off, then he'll be fine.*
no subject
Date: 2012-03-11 10:10 pm (UTC)He follows his double to the lab. The baby is finally calming down. Finally. Relief.]
