Day Four

What: Coffee then computers.
Where: At the coffee bar/ computer room
Rating: TBD
Status: Complete

Tyler's third day on Mirage began much later than the day before as the blond man didn't haul himself out of bed until at least noon. He had stayed up late the night before poking around the resort on his own, partly to get a feel for the place and partly to see if he could track down Brigitte. Yes, the last time he had seen the brunette she had locked him outside to face certain doom but she was also the only person Tyler knew before arriving here so he felt driven to track her down and see if she knew what the hell had happened. Of course, fate conspired against Tyler so he had absolutely no luck and finally went back to his room around 3am. When he awoke at 12pm, he practically fell out of bed and stumbled toward the shower.

There was nothing like a piping hot shower to wake a man up though and soon Tyler was feeling more energetic by the time he got out.He soon remembered that he had promised to meet up with Katara that afternoon at the coffee bar. Deciding that he wasn't particularly hunger, Tyler simply brushed his teeth, combed his hair and got dressed. It was kinda cool that his room came equipped with almost everything Tyler could need, like clothes and junk. He picked out a pair of dark blue jeans and a white button down shirt with a wife-beater under it. Was he dressing up a little? Perhaps but c'mon, he was meeting a pretty girl for coffee! He couldn't exactly go in stained shirts and ripped jeans, could he?

After leaving his room and unit A, Tyler made his way to the main building and down the long corridor toward the coffee bar. Aside from one golem, he saw no one along the way and silently wondered what the other residents were up to. There hadn't been any mandatory activities for today, something Tyler was kinda glad for. Bowling had been fun but if he had been forced to go horseback riding or something like that earlier he might have punched someone.

It was about a little after one when Tyler got to the coffee place and since he didn't see Katara right away, Tyler headed in to take a seat at the counter. Another golem was there in the back so Tyler called out to him. "Can I get double double here?" Of course Tyler was speaking Canadian lingo for a two sugar two cream coffee so he realized he probably should explain. Yet just as he opened his mouth the golem came over and laid the coffee down in front of him. "Thanks", he murmured before taking a sip.

Tyler was glad to hear his explanation was making some sense as the web browser opened on the screen. The home page was a generic search site which Tyler explained to Katara. "This is a search engine, you can type in anything, press enter and see if there's anything on the web about it. Like this", he said as he typed in email. A list of sites popped up on the screen and Tyler clicked on the yahoo one. "I'll try to contact my family using email, or electronic mail. You can send messages electronically over a computer network to another person which they can access on their computer...if they're logged on to the internet".

Tyler signed in and saw a few messages in his inbox. One was from his friend Marcus who worked at the clinic with him. The subject line read 'Where are you?'. Clicking it open, Tyler's eyes quickly scanned the message. "Okay, so they know I'm missing", Tyler said to Katara, feeling a little relieved. "Now I'm going to try to email him back and let him know where I am and that I'm okay". The blond man typed up a quick message and clicked send but a message came up on the computer.

"Message cannot be sent. That's weird". Tyler copied the message, went into compose and tried to send the email to his mother. The same message came up. "Cannot be sent. Is it the computer or the connection?" He mused out loud. "It's possible the computer might have some sort of Firewall or something to block messages being sent".

Tyler slouched in his chair, disappointed. "Well, that sucks", he groaned. "Looks like my great idea is a dud like you predicted".
