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 sighed. Katara was right, this planet did have a cruel streak. He never would have imagined he would miss his family as much as he did. Tyler had taken for granted that they would always be there when he wanted. Still, there wasn’t any point in moping about it now. That was something Tyler could save for later when he was in private. He tried to smile but failed as his face settled into a wistful expression. “Yes, they can be used for other things”, he replied to Katara’s question.

“Even though we can’t use email it’s clear we can still use these things to research stuff, look at things on the internet and…” Tyler minimized the web browser and checked the programs to see what this computer had. “There are games, writing programs, calculator, and some drawing program”, he listed off. “If you want to write, on the computer you just have to open up this program”.

Tyler opened Microsoft word and started typing randomly to show Katara. His blue eyes scanned the room until he saw the printer. “You can also print off what you write by hitting this button”. Tyler hit the print button and within in seconds the printer a few desks down came to life. It was only one sheet but Tyler fetched it to show Katara. Nothing ground shaking but at least it kept Tyler’s mind occupied.

“So your home, does it have mail too?” Tyler asked, somewhat curious but mostly wanting to make conversation.
