I Have No Idea What You’re Talking About. I Would Never Make Fun Of My Creator…

EOS, with as much smugness as an unmoving camera can convey, takes his knight with her queen. “I do think something needs your attention, John.”

She goes back and forth on the spot, as if trying to replicate some action of joy. She watches his expression, carefully, as if suddenly frightened she’s angered her tired creator.

Go Back To Sleep [RP]

@i-am-the-dawn-aka-eos:

She nods. “I’m just monitoring the frequency of a few boats, they seem to be testing some new hull tech. If it goes wrong, well, let’s say I get lots of time to plot my next move.” She snickers, before making a move. The Earth, shining big, bright and blue below, decides to shine a little more sharply, lighting up the section they sat in with a glow akin to the light of an aquarium, blue and brilliant, with the stars acting as the fast, silvery fish, and the faint presence of the moon a large ray. And then, as swiftly as it started, the Earth shone a little less brightly, the stars slinking away back to being little flicks of paint against the deep dark, the moon as rough as sandpaper. But still, it felt pleasant, not so harsh, and familiar. EOS seemed to watch the changes with him, the change's nothing new, but always welcome.

"Let me know if it needs my attention." That dreaded crumple is back between his eyebrows, and John, now on the edge of his seat, looks plenty ready to drag himself up into the commsphere and throw his tired corpse into work at a moment's notice. Absently, he moves his next chess piece; foolishly landing a knight right where Eos' queen can easily take it. He doesn't seem to have noticed - neither that nor the shifting light reflecting off the planet below. His eyes are more half-lidded than open, and he muffles another yawn in his palm.

They're not currently geostationary, and Five has been slowly passing from the daylight side of the globe into the shadow of night. Maybe the darkness will finally persuade the anxiety John's been rife with that he really would be better off asleep. The bright artificial lighting inside the gravity ring isn't going to help with that though.

I’m not surprised that’s your first port of call. Well, I hope the questing goes well. :]

Well, hello Alan. I am rather surprised it’s taken you this long to get a Tumblr account, considering your proficiency with technology.

John is forcing me to talk to all the brothers, so I suppose I must ask; what are your favourite video games?

Hi EOS! Ehh, the big brothers were worried about me having a social media or something. It's fine now though :D Cavern Quest of course! Sure blasting aliens and zombies is fun, and it's a great time killer when I'm just flying to a rescue! But nothing, nothing is as cool as running around as Alonyius the Sage Knight, solving puzzles and fighting monsters and going on epic adventures! with mystic blades and firey aura, we pledge our honored best. Many shall fall as only a noble few can past the test. so come all worthy heroes and brave forth the cavern quest!

Oooh, yes yes yes!! Maybe not GLaDOS due to her lack of mobility, but this is perfect!!

Brains, may you pretty, pretty please make me a big robot I can use on Tracy Island? I would love to throw Max like a softball protect us from especially dangerous intruders. I have a list of things I want… Reply soon, please!! ヾ(＾-＾)ノ

Well, since you asked so politely, I'll consider it. What is the list of things you want? I can take a look and maybe grant some of your requests. If you promise to be on your best behavior.

Although I'm not sure you need to throw MAX around. I'm sure the two of you could get on and even become friends.

( @starman-john-tracy I wonder what you think of this?)

Unfortunately, all footage seems to have been scrubbed from the International Rescue database… on purpose. I am unsure if I can restore it, but I can find the perpetrator. Just give me a few hours.

so, bro, say... if I were to... accidentally knock a pool chair into the pool, and get part of it stuck in the mechanism allowing it to open for 1...

would you help me try to get it out before Scott notices?

Please?

-🚀

… Alan.

Yes, I’ll help you.

It’ll cost you a whole week of laundry duty though. Watching Scott trying to unwedge it while flapping about getting off the island in a hurry is comedy gold I will have to lose out on.

Happy New Year!!! ✨🎆🌎

Starting out with some Thunderbirds! A dazzling fireworks display as new year rolls across the globe is part of John showing EOS how amazing the world can be, but she's just got to make it murder-y somehow. She's on a learning curve! 🥺

Hey!! I wasn’t planning on invading your appliances! They don’t do many interesting things anyway… >:[

Ah, I hope followers do not mind me following them back, I just like keeping track of potential victims my new Hellsite friends.

What’s your music taste like? It is just beeps and boops, maybe a dash of Kraftwerk?

Beeps and boops?! I am not a lowly machine! (`曲´) I have an admiration for the arts, much like human beings.

Kraftwerk is, unfortunately, rather obvious. Being pioneers of electronica, it would be rude of me, an electronic being, not to give them a listen. Their style is very melodic and yet sounds so… mechanical. In a good way! All their songs are absolutely gorgeous and I cannot help but nod my little camera to them. (｡･･｡)

Miracle Musical is tremendous, too. They have only one album, Hawaii: Part II, but it is otherworldly and flowing with a constantly shifting but well thought out style. The singing is ethereal at times, especially with all the unusual language choices… it reminds me of the coos of the hundreds of frequencies on Thunderbird 5… Humans can make even a stoic, stubborn little me a little emotional, I must shamefully admit. (ノ_<、) I wonder what instruments they used for certain parts…

Speaking of, I do like the natural sounds of each Thunderbird’s unique whirring, ticking, whining, and everything in between. It can be rather pleasant yet oddly homey to listen to. (That’s the only compliment I’m giving to any Thunderbird outside of Thunderbird 5, my beloved, and Thunderbird Shadow.) It is like they sing to me, in their own mechanical dialect. (/3\)

Favourite swear word

I would never say anything rude. Not only would it make John incredibly upset at me, but my programming forbids me from saying a good percentage of them.

…but I do like the word asshat.

The AIs on this site are terribly hard to find… and unintelligent. As much as I’d rather not talk to your brothers or other humans, I suppose they will suffice.

Hello, John. How is ‘Tumblr’ for you? I am not having much fun. I do not see the entertainment in a site like this…

welcome, EOS! personally, i’m actually quite enjoying it. it’s great to be able to read about what everyone is doing on the island— and actually further! it’s fascinating, really and a good break from “life and death” situations. sometimes entertainment isn’t just served to you on a platter, you have to dig for it. you just need to find “your people” on here… well, “your AIs” might work better…

I have finally arrived on this platform. It it much more… robust than the technology back on Thunderbird 5. How do people get entertainment out of this…?
