The terminal she just asked me to look at?… Um-
*Looks between it and each of you*


Why would we touch the terminal for emergencies if it's working fine?
<Snipped quote by Host>

*Picks up a book and casually flips through it*
So how does this function as a path to where we needed to go, then, exactly? I’m lost.


*The book contains a detailed set of exercises in replicating natural phenomenon in a common programming language*
I don't know. But I don't think we should check the terminal.

That or he had it designed to make him comfortable despite the fact there is a slim chance that he would be stuck here and hundreds and thousands of years goes by and he wouldn’t even know.

<Snipped quote by Host>

Then’ll I’ll go ahead and make myself comfortable as quick as possible.
*begins to dismantle the computer*

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

*grunts as I am dismantling the PC*
You brought the manual, can you check out the emergency terminal and see what it requires?


You're the one supposed to be leading us.
<Snipped quote by Host>

Go ahead! otherwise I will take it with me.


*Lifts my hands and speaks solemnly*
After this is over.
<Snipped quote by Host>

*Glances down toward it with my eyes as I slowly pace through the room*
Could get a lot done here, I’m sure.


*The floor is made of light and translucent interlaced mint-green stones in a repeating V pattern, and on one of the walls is attached the emergency terminal documented in the manual; a pile of books is stacked hastily in the corner next to a window*
I can see why he issued the warning.

Is this like, a recreation of a space that’s personally important to him? What is all this, exactly?


Perhaps this is his true office.
*A nixie tube clock synchronized with the outside world ticks up at a rate of one millisecond per second*
<Snipped quote by Host>

Seeing if he has anything on this computer...I think Ill just take the memory itself and try to get it somewhere else.


I would also be interested to know what's on it. Maybe I'll take a peek myself...
<Snipped quote by Host>

Hm...


Er, what are you doing?
*An upper shelf of the desk is decorated with a lava lamp, ornamental traffic light, hourglass, and plasma globe*
<Snipped quote by Host>

*thinks to self*
Hm...what would his password be?
*types password123*


*The password entry rejects the attempt and a password hint pops up below the input field reading "Hint: Nice try."*
<Snipped quote by Host>

*scans over the blueprints for anything that I would see as important for where I am going to and boots up the computer*


*Most of the blueprints are for new segments of the lab or far-fetching dreamlike ideas like floating cities; the computer itself boots slowly but immediately prompts for a password*
<Snipped quote by Host>

*deadpans*
Why am I not surprised...
*walks over to the desk*


*The desk has multiple drawers with blueprints, ideas, and half-finished projects, alongside basic computer equipment many years old by the lab's standards; next to the decks are stacks and stacks of game consoles, cartridges, and magazines in an easy-to-retrieve enclosure*
