In Times of Crisis..
Who: Gor, Riff
Where: The Pub
When: Mid-day

Gor's little adventure had left his pale skin reddened from the sun. He was not at all accustomed to being in direct sunlight, and it seemed his floundering on the beach had been a little too much for his body to handle. Although he was not so badly burned that his skin was peeling, he did, nonetheless, feel somewhat sick.

Driven by the rumbling of his stomach, the teenager had managed to scrounge up a can of condensed chicken noodle soup. The bowl was sitting in front of him now, still steaming from its time on the stove, but the book in front of him had captivated the teenager's attention. The large hard-covered book featured large, colorful drawings of a variety of fantastic creatures, and Gor was combing through the book with an all-consuming interest in its contents.

He doubted he'd ever see any of his gaming group ever again, but if he ever did, at least he'd be ready with 4.0.

Riff had been lucky that her parents had been attentive and loving and encouraging. She loved her parents, really. They were fabulous and she missed them though they had sort of lost touch as her OCD started to take over her life. Really, she probably needed medication or therapy or something... But she was busy. She had projects.

She breathed a laugh and nodded, "Yeah..." Understatement of the year to be honest. Riff rubbed the back of her head, smiling sheepishly, "Um... Well, I worked on some working for Sony but recently I kind of quit. Although back home I have this really great AI programme I'm working on. Willard's really quite responsive and becoming more capable to learn every day... Or was. Without human interaction, I don't know what will happen."

Gor looked truly interested as she outlined her work -- particularly when she mentioned the AI program. Willard. It seemed somehow fitting for an AI, even if he currently knew nothing about it.

It also seemed to fit her, although he couldn't really say why. Nor did he give it much thought.

"You developed your own AI?" He was suitably impressed. "Did you start from scratch, or did you begin the program with defined parameters?"

Oh it was definitely fitting... Or at least she thought it was. Willard was just a fun name. Unless you used Willard Kraft as a reference but really, one fictional principal wasn't enough to damn a name.

Riff shook her head a little, "I started with something from Sony's Tokyo division. I've just been modifying it. A lot. And translating... Really, apparently they couldn't be bloody well bothered with a translation into English." There was a sharp bitter tone in her voice. She wasn't at all happy with how they'd been treating her or her projects. Good thing she didn't work for them anymore.
