And You Would Be Right, Especially Factoring In Your Reputation For Destroying Your Own Thunderbird.

Have you ever heard os GLaDOS, Eos? I think you two'd be good friends. Both murderous robots, both in control of something that's capable of killing people, both tried killing your new best friend...

And both with a great voice and 1-eyed design.

I quite like her, yes, and Portal is a lovely little puzzle game. I envy how much control she has, and her very well built body. I want to be big and intimidating too!

I think we’d get along, but her methods of murder are too slow. Neurotoxins only do so much… not that I know any better ways.

Ooh, yes, I’d love to watch those… but yes, alas, John says they’ll be a “bad influence” and “might make me try and kill again”. Hmph! As if my opinion can be swayed with a single movie.

Do any of you Tumblr citizens have any recommendations for movies? I feel I’m boring John by consistently talking about how superior I am to MAX and Braman… not that I’m wrong.

Hmm, no. I cannot manipulate Tumblr polls, if that is what you are accusing me of. Unless everyone liked my breakdown on how awful the colours are…

Very, very important Thunderbirds business today folks. I need votes urgently.

Hi EOS.

Have you ever considered taking a deep swim? Servers and all? Maybe in a nice reef somewhere?

Gordon, is that you? Hmph. I will not be dumping my precious servers and backups into a reef. John would not be happy with the cleanup… If my camera was built to resist the depths, then I would not mind putting my camera, and camera alone, into the ocean.

OOC: I currently have a very bad headache (to the degree it’s kinda disorienting to stand up too quick) and will be replying to posts less frequently. I’ll reblog with an update tomorrow, but I don’t expect to get better as sleeping all day hasn’t helped a lot aside from taking away the ache when I’m asleep. When it’s over I’ll return to my usual routine of replying every time I open Tumblr.

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\)

Hmph! John doesn’t let me have access to the Thunderbird hangar security cameras. If anyone, it was him!

hey guys, found some pictures of the guys on my phone so might as well share them!

Johnny, probably thinking about eating bagels

another one, this time from the background of a picture I deleted. Got it from Gordo, he took it while I was lost in space. He wasn't happy.

this one just makes me laugh.

that's it for now, I dunno what else to put. Need to get more embarrassing photos to share...

Her unit shakes, mimicking anger, as she frustratedly takes his Rook.

“I can’t ever let my guard down! You’re so mean.” She seems to contemplate resetting the hologram so nobody can win nor lose. “And eat your bagel. Otherwise it’ll look rather unpleasant in a few days.”

i-am-the-dawn-aka-eos

Placing a pawn defensively in the way, EOS doesn’t move a single centimetre, millimetre, nothing, as John places a hand on her unit. But he can see the camera zoom out, as if his closeness makes him too blurry in EOS’s eye. She seems to notice his weariness, shakiness, the underlying panic and fear he’ll fall over and smash through the reinforced glass like a cannonball. And then a bagel smacks him in the ear, telling him that’s probably not what she’s thinking about. “The usual. There are other things, of course, but you might as well have that bagel I’ve gleefully given to you… Would you like some condiments with that?”

"No thank you, Eos." How she managed to get a bagel from Five's small kitchen galley out to the gravity ring is beyond John, but, by now, he really should have expected to be smacked in the head with it.

Almost like she'd been planning it all along.

Without even sitting again, John takes her Bishop from where it had been left exposed by her move without a hint of remorse.

He imagines any condiments she's got to offer him will likely meet his face in a very similar way, so, instead, John shuffles himself along the wall, wary of her gaze on his back, to find sometime for himself.

Maybe a hot mug of that fancy tea Penelope sent up will help.

If I had this body, know I would be rubbing my clawed hands mischievously at this moment…

heard you play chess

My intimidating form could scare John into letting me win… what a fantastic idea! Thank you! I do like the red LEDs in my wiring, I look even more villainous… (~v~)
