[VIDEO] UN: EGGMAN

I am currently looking for someone who has interfaced with the Communications data point for a project I am working on. Commute to Sh'Ka is mandatory though you don't need to stay. Frankly, it's better for me if you don't.

Don't bother inquiring if you can't take things seriously, can't take direction, or aren't willing to work.

If interested, get in touch with me as soon as conceivably possible. Preferably within the next day or two.

And, on that note, who here has interfaced with the Engineering data point?

Honestly, this data point system is the most infuriating and non-efficient system I've ever encountered. Did nobody beta test this?!

It appears there's no shortage of technological aficionados here.

That's interesting news. I admit, I've found more people interested in the scientific than I initially thought there would be.

They just appear to be directionless.

Not particularly directionless. The two I mentioned are very project-oriented. Mostly independent, but Tony might be more willing to assist if you have something particular in mind.

I see. Then, I shall have to reach out. Perhaps we can pool our abilities and do something...

Eugh...

Good. For both cities.

[Donnie laughs a little.]

Don't sound too excited there.

I assure you, my excitement is contained at adequate levels.

I've never been fond of collaboration. Too many cooks, etcetera.

Oh.

I guess I can see what you mean, but then I haven't had much opportunity to collab with others until here. My experience hasn't been bad so far.

...Hrm.

[Don't look at him like that, Donatello.]

The last person I collaborated with made it his personal mission to fix me. He questioned my methods and eventually sought to usurp me. He cobbled together a ragtag team of my enemies and took over one of my bases.

He believed himself my better despite me being the source of his idolatry.

It's soured my perspective on working with someone else.

[Look he just wants to do cool stuff with like-minded people, bonus points for like-minded adults who give him approval of his ability, is that so much to ask for?]

...ooh. That's... Wow.

[Donnie winces a little.]

I guess I can see how that'd make someone feel negatively about playing with others, yeah.

[Not like he hasn't tried to fix his brothers himself, but he'd learned from his mistakes, and his brothers... Well anyway, everything worked out in the end and he hasn't felt the need to attempt any brain experiments again so..!]

Take it from me, Donatello. Never idolize anyone. Otherwise you're just resigning yourself to live in their shadow until it breaks you.

Be your own person and overcome all opposition! That takes true genius!

Thankfully I know there can only be one Donatello.

[Having three more was a nightmare!]

So, about helping out with the engineering stuff... Where and when would you want me to come by?

I suppose whenever is convenient for you. I can meet you where the railway ends and escort you to where we'll be working.

[Partly because he doesn't want anyone knowing his true command post. Yet.]

That's fine. I was planning on heading back over anyway. I just wish the commute wasn't so tedious. It wouldn't be so bad if Sh'Ka had working data points so we didn't have to preload anything.

I can grab some things and catch the next train out, see what we're going to be working with for starters?

Yes, the lack of data points here is honestly surprising. But I prefer to sequester myself away from the hustle and bustle.

I shall meet you then.

Because this city is totally bustling.

[Dry, yes. It is definitely not New York here.]

Catch you later!

I prefer less organic company, most of the time.

Yes. 'Later.'

[Waiting for trains suck, especially when they don't run nearly as frequently as subways in New York. But EVENTUALLY Donnie does make it out to Sh'Ka. He carefully navigates away from the creeping blood vines, although not without studying them as he seeks where the best place to get cuttings would be. ...later. That's going to be a mess to propagate and he'd rather not look like he'd just murdered someone. He'd already gotten one hoodie messed up, he's not getting this one bloodied!]

[Sure enough, here comes Eggman, huffing and puffing. He's not used to traveling without his precious Eggmobile.]

[When he arrives, he leans over and places his hands on his knees, wheezing.]

Blasted...hah...overgrown...! Jungle!

Oh, I really need to design and construct a proper Eggmobile or this world will be the death of me.

[Ooh... That mustache is definitely a lot bigger in person.

Donnie blinks and fixes the strap of his bag over his shoulder as he starts over towards the poor guy.]

Doctor Robotnik? You all right there?

Yes, Donatello! Hello!

[Eggman, looks Donnie up and down. He's...a little surprised at his size. He's used to the furries he deals with being about the size of children. People he can easily throw around. Donatello, however, seems much more physically imposing...]

[Interesting.]

Eh...apologies. I'm not exactly used to such a...lush environment. I prefer something more...sterile. Metallic.

[If only Eggy could see Raph..!

Donnie smiles crookedly at that admission.]

Yeah, unfortunately things just go all to pieces once people are out of the picture I guess. At least they got the power and water running here, otherwise it'd be unbearable.

Yes, finding a source of power was tantamount to my establishing a base of operations.

I'm surprised no one has really chosen to settle this city.

Eh, guess people would rather be with other people, at least for the most part.

Or maybe one city's already enough for most to be worrying about.

So! Where to?

Why?

Hm.

[Well, he supposes it's fine for Donatello to know where his command center is. He'll have to set up precautions in the event that he decides to be more a hindrance than a help but...]

Come, it's in a building near the power plant. Luckily, no one else claimed such a vital location for themselves.

I don't know! I'm just theorizing. Asking about it would probably just make people wonder that maybe they should make better use of a secondary resource, and there goes your peace and quiet!

[Donnie nods then. Seems perfectly reasonable for someone planning on tinkering with machinery to set up close to the power plant.]

Maybe whatever lives around there's kept them away? I wonder if any of the wildlife's come back since the volcano blew all its ash in this direction.

Hrm. You have a point. Best to leave well enough alone.

[Eggman picks his path carefully, doing his best to follow the route he came from and avoiding as much difficult terrain and overgrowth as possible.]

I've not noticed any but my scope is limited. Part of the reason I'd like to set up these sentry bots. There's a surprising number of underutilized bots here in Sh'Ka that I'm converting into something more tailored to my own preferences. You'll see.

Once they're built, I'll need someone synced with the communications data point to help me tether them to the network. Perhaps design an app for these communication devices that will allow users to tap into the feed.

[Something he can piggyback off of himself.]
