007. anon text

[keepscalm]

For the purpose of this post, I will be referring to the first year mentioned here as Year X, the second as Year Y, and the current year as Year Z. I will also be referring to the months by their numerical place on the calendar rather than their names. This is so that I can ensure comprehension by a wide audience in the tower, no matter what year they are from or what the calendar of their world is like.

I'd like to call the attention of the following people:

● anyone who arrived in the tower earlier than this date exactly two years ago; the thirtieth day of Month 8 in Year X.
● anyone who participated in the experiment during Month 9 of Year X.
● anyone who played in the entirety of the game during Month 2 of Year Y.
● anyone who played in the entirety of the game during Month 6 of Year Y.
● anyone who participated in any experiment or game during Month 7 of Year Y.
● any competent hacker who feels a little helpful.

I am not asking anything dangerous of you. I simply have a little project I'm working on, and I require assistance with filling in some of the blanks.

Back home I was the best, since I've been doing it since I was a kid, and I'm able to hack pretty much anything. Ask me to hack something and I can do it.

Do you think your abilities would be of use in regards to the terminals here in the tower?

[technologic]

Yeah, I think they could. It would depend on what you would want done, though.

I'm hoping it won't be too difficult, but computers are not my area of expertise.

Would you mind meeting me in the library on the nineteenth floor? I'll be in one of the sections with books removed.

[technologic]

Okay, I'll meet you there.

[He can be found amongst the rows of the sparse psychology section after he's had some time to handle the conversations on the post. Of course, this anon will be pretty familiar to April once she finds him.]

[When she arrives there, she'll stop and stare in surprise, before hesitantly moving closer.]

... England?

[keepscalm]

[He's alerted by the sound of footsteps even before she says his name; he's not sure if anyone else might have taken advantage of him saying his meeting place, so he was on his guard. When he sees that it's April, though, England relaxes a little, though his expression is sheepish.]

Correct. Er- sorry I didn't say anything. [His sheepish expression gives way to a bit of a frown.] I thought an anonymous post would get more people to respond.

[technologic]

[April tilts her head with a questioning look, though she nods despite her curiosity about all this.]

It's all right, I can understand that... So, um, what would you want me to do?

[keepscalm]

[Thankful that she's not upset for not telling her right off the bat, England's shoulders slope down a bit, a further measure of tension seeping out of him.

He motions her a bit closer, and will continue to do so until she's less than an arm's length away. He's not sure if what he wants to do will invite retaliation, but even so, he won't chance the administrators overhearing him through the walls.

Only once she's close enough will he speak again. His voice is low, quiet enough that only April should be able to hear him, even if there are others nearby.] You know how sometimes files pop up on the network and then get deleted? Weird files?

[technologic]

[April moves closer to him, now looking completely curious. She's silent as she listens to him and then nods, her voice just as quiet when she replies.]

Ah, yeah, I remember... Do you want me to find them?

[keepscalm]

[The corners of his mouth lift up into a small smile at her quick comprehension.] Precisely. I have my doubts that any digital replication of the files will last, but I'd like to at least take notes on the actual content of the files.

[This has been bugging him ever since he had that conversation about what he saw at the bottom of the Tower. He couldn't remember the whole of the file, and he didn't want to repeat that oversight.

His smile gives way to concern.] Are you all right with doing this? I should hope it won't be too complicated of an affair, but... [And then he trails off, his expression sour as he casts a distrusting look towards the terminals. He doesn't want April to get hurt trying to help him.]
