i hate myself but will you help me voicetest

[doublemask]

he'll yes (i'm making stuff up tell me if i should change it)

[ruffrabbits]

[ his eyes might look glazed over as he stares at the lines and lines of text scrolling by, but he's paying attention. more or less. well, he's at least paying some attention, because every few minutes he taps a button on his coil or types in a few lines. his allmate emits a bright 'p!' every time he hits enter, like a cheer.

he doesn't look at it. with the screens up around him, there's only a dim green glow cast on his sparsely furnished surroundings. he has work to get finished, and he concentrates better when the only stimuli are the soft hum of programs running and the light from his allmates.

...but it's also getting kind of hard to ignore the other occupant of his room. he doesn't think clear is particularly useful but he's managed to sit more or less quiet for the past few minutes so noiz doesn't think it's necessary to kick him out. he hadn't asked why clear showed up, and he doesn't mean to. ]

[doublemask]

[He's been trying to be quiet, really, though the temptation to peer over his shoulder was way too hard to resist. There's personal space, yes, he learned that and has been trying to respect it, but Clear is too curious for his own good. Code, that he can process and understand after a fashion, though slower than maybe he should be able to. And yet...]

Noiz-san?

[No, he can't stay silent like this for too long.]

Um, what does this part intend to do?

[And he points to a few lines that given what's around them seem pretty weird, at least to him. Maybe it's something that Noiz put in? It's all learning to him.]

[ruffrabbits]

[ personal space isn't particularly important to him. he doesn't respect it with other people, most of the time. but he doesn't look up when clear leans over.

but he does look up when clear points at the lines of new code once he finishes another line. ]

...instructs the distributor to send another response when the loop ends.

[ he scratches the back of his head idly, turning his head slightly to eye clear. ] What are you doing here?

[ now he thinks to ask. ]

[doublemask]

[He looks caught when asked that, almost guilty. But he won't lie.]

...I just wanted to spend time with a friend. But you were busy, so I didn't think it was a good idea to ask you if you wanted to do anything else.

[That's what you do with friends. You find them and you hang out with them even if they're Noiz. Whatever hanging out means to them, even if that's just reading code over their shoulder.

Yeah, you're his friend, Noiz. You can't stop that fact.]

[ruffrabbits]

[ but he can try! just not right now. instead, he focuses on something else. ]

Don't you have better things to do?

[ despite those words, he doesn't really sound bothered.

...this guy is really bad at doing things like "hanging out". ]

[doublemask]

Not really.

[Simple like stating the weather. And is there really a "better" when it comes to working on being friends?]

[ruffrabbits]

[ noiz shrugs, like an admission of fair enough, before he turns back to his screens. after a few minutes he speaks up again, while fiddling with a fancy virtual dial projected by his allmate. or something. dmmd technology is weird. ]

You know how to write code?

[doublemask]

Not really...I can understand a lot of it, though I couldn't tell you how. It's like reading English for some people!

[Clear is almost annoyingly chipper.]

[ruffrabbits]

[ noiz pauses in his scrolling, before picking up another rabbit cube and tossing it at clear. it turns on as it flies through the air, beeping and brightly and throwing up another screen of green text. ]

You can go over that, if it's like reading English for you.

[ best fraaands ]

[doublemask]

[He catches it in his hands, and it makes him happy to be given this task to do. Finally, Noiz is warming to him, he thinks! Certainly it's a step towards becoming good friends and having the feeling be mutual.

Clear falls quiet as he reviews the code in front of him, reading it like someone else would a novel. Perhaps, here and here, this could be made more streamlined, and here, that had to be a mistake...

Hmm. He reaches out, highlights what he noticed, keeps scrolling. No point in trying to mess with it and then potentially crashing the whole program. He couldn't fix it, at least not consciously.]

[ruffrabbits]

[ he's paying more attention to his own screen, but once clear touches the screen usagimodoki lets out another "p!" and tells him what section of code is being highlighted.

— yeah, that's a mistake. he'll go back to it later. he just grunts and goes back to scrolling through his own screens, though, switching from his finished script to an array of surveillance screens. ...creepy. ]

[doublemask]

[whatcha watching, Noiz? or who,

do you mind if Clear just sliiiiides on over to see?

why is this being asked you have to endure it either way.]

[ruffrabbits]

[ fuck his life. he sort of gives clear a look out of the corner of his eye, but keeps scrolling, flipping through screens. there's videos of nearly every part of midorijima, even secluded alleys and inside various buildings. people wander in and out of the frames, though noiz doesn't single out any of them as he goes through. ]

Enjoying yourself?

[ it doesn't really seem like it, but... who knows. ]

[doublemask]

Yes, I am.

[It's not so simple as he enjoys spying on people, as perhaps Noiz does, but it's connecting with Noiz, and Clear's never gotten to see the inside of so many places at once before.]

[ruffrabbits]

[ he grunts, articulately, and keeps scrolling, slowing down occasionally when he sees something interesting. there's a lot of camera feeds, and a few of them seem to be catching some crime or action! noiz only hovers over them for a fraction of a second longer than he does on the other ones. ]
