Night 71: Main Hallway, 1-Center

[from here]

The main corridor was dark, and no sounds came from the sun room, even when Taura pressed an ear to the doors. That didn't mean much, but it gave her something to do while she waited. Then she switched to jogging back and forth along the length of it. Staying in one place had proved more dangerous than making a visible target of herself; she didn't like waiting.

"It makes sound?"

He took the offered deice and inspected it, turning it over and over excitedly. The last sound machine he'd seen had been so much fun. True that event had ended in disaster, but that fact didn't change how he had enjoyed listening to the 'music'.

"I c-can really have it?"

"Yeah, kinda. You talk into this thingy here--" he pointed a stubby finger at the grooved face of the radio. "Oh, wait! No, you hold this down--" Goku demonstrated by pressing a button down on the side. "So, now you can talk. Lookit--" As he began to speak gibberish into the receiver, it left a message to any patients listening to the public channel.

"So yeah, then if anyone wants to say anything, they will. Or somethin' like that. I've never used it. They just told me how it works. And that I'm supposed ta give them to people, so take it! It's free!" Not as good as free food, but still a wonderful treat.

((sorry for the long delay, July weekends are busy for me x_x ))

Though he didn't want to try it himself, he was watching carefully so that he would remember how to do that little trick in the future. Being able to talk with someone who wasn't actually there seemed like a very useful thing. Useful and new, which made it exciting.

"Thank you."

No worries! I've been hella slow myself /)_(\

"Yer welcome!" Goku replied with an easy smile. The pint of ice cream he held was slowly melting down the side of the carton, staining his institute-issued pajamas, but he didn't care. If anything, he'd smell like ice cream all night! That was a delicious prospect.

As he stared through 6 with a spoon poised for another scoop, the little boy asked, "You want some?"

((and somehow I also didn't get this notif o_____o I'm so sorry))

He shoved the device into a pocket for the time being. It would be fun to play with later on. Maybe he could even find someone to talk to with it! But for now, there was someone very nice to talk to right where he was.

"What is it? Never saw something like that before."
