Who: Intensity and Nemesis and You
Where: Outside the hospital
When: Day 23 afternoon
What: It's a LIVE

[Hello, idols. Your MEDIA ATTENTION app is going off this lovely afternoon with Intensity and Nemesis setting up a beta (or more like alpha) test outside of the hospital. It looks like something to do with fireworks and the most homely parachute pack ever created (that's what happens when you stitch together spare parts from hospital beds and medical equipment)]

Ready for your big debut?

[Feel free to either assist with the experiment or argue about it. Both are valid future is now lives]

That's what the parachute is for.

[If by parachute, he means the thing made out of doctor chair upholstery, bedsheets, and is the pull cord a stethoscope?]

[rollwillpowercheck]

I... see. Maybe I'll, um, stick around.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Perfect. It's always good to have a White Mage on standby.

[rollwillpowercheck]

You really should have just asked one of us beforehand, you know.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

You charge a fortune. If I have to pay my employee and your healing fee, then I lose points per invention. Even if I make it a stupid fucking live.

[rollwillpowercheck]

Hmm. I thought it might be something like that...

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

So can I get a discount if I need healing in bulk?

[rollwillpowercheck]

I'd have to talk it over with the rest of my unit.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Is sensitIV also a hivemind unit?




Pity.

[rollwillpowercheck]

I don't think wanting consistency in how we market ourselves counts as a "hivemind."

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

"Market ourselves." Buying a bit much into this whole idol scenario, aren't you?

[rollwillpowercheck]

Not exactly. Healing is sensitIV's unique resource. So we just want to be careful with it.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

It's a contrived resource. Just like tech is a contrived resource.

Resource management is part of the manipulation.

[rollwillpowercheck]

Well, yeah. Are you telling me that you're not going to look out for your own interests at all just because it's contrived?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I certainly don't need my unitmates to approve any deal that I'm making.

[rollwillpowercheck]

It's not a matter of needing approval, but--

[sigh]

Well, we have different ways of doing things for sure.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Right. You value your little sense of community.

So like I said before. Hivemind.

[rollwillpowercheck]

It's all black and white with you, isn't it.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

You haven't given me cause to think that there are any shades of grey here.

[rollwillpowercheck]

That's what I mean, though. The default should be assuming that there are shades of grey.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Not in this case. The units can be easily categorized into ones that actually make effort to be a unit and those that prefer their autonomy.
