Noise

It starts as just irritation. A metaphorical crawling under your skin. Things are too noisy, too bright, there is too much happening all the time and you can't take it all in-

Then silence it, make it yours, make it you, take control and destroy what will not submit

It sounds so inviting, a freedom from the noise, but its wrong, its wrong, its wrong and the noise is getting louder, mechanical and foreboding as it sees you, it knows you are there, and it wants to make you apart of it.

For a moment, there is quiet.

You breathe.

And fall through water.

Was it hard?

Re: The Core

[othellovonryan]

[He shakes his head.] The logic makes sense.

[It is a paperclip repair job, very much scavenged bobs and ends, but it does work and its not going to fry anytime soon.]

Re: The Core

[despitethenora]

It looks good to me. And everyone's enjoying it.

Re: The Core

[othellovonryan]

Movies always important. It was sad when it broke.

Re: The Core

[despitethenora]

Did you and your brothers break it while playing?

[Glancing at Mikey and Raph trying to mimic the movie.]

Re: The Core

[othellovonryan]

[He nods.] Knocked it over.

Re: The Core

[despitethenora]

But you took responsibility, and fixed it. That's good.

Re: The Core

[othellovonryan]

Not really about that. Its what I can do.

Re: The Core

[despitethenora]

[Slow nod.]

And next you’ll be working on improving the design?

Re: The Core

[othellovonryan]

Many designs. And everything else.

[A flash across the screen of ever improving inventions over time, getting more and more wild, before flickering back to the movie.]

Re: The Core

[despitethenora]

[Glancing over to the screen.]

Everything else?

Re: The Core

[othellovonryan]

Machines for my family. Tech. Inventions.

Re: The Core

[despitethenora]

[Ah.]

Want some help?

Re: The Core

[othellovonryan]

[Shakes his head.]

Not here. This is a memory. Outside is good.

Re: The Core

[despitethenora]

I’ll hit you with some ideas later, then.

Maybe right now - I just watch the holo with you boys.

[He beams at that and he'll pull up a spare beanbag for her to sit on.]

[Time to watch some Lou Jitsu. Welcome to cheesy kung fu action movie with some AWESOME stunts and a ridiculous amount of food based puns.]

Re: The Core

[despitethenora]

[She’ll settle in on the beanbag. Groan at the puns. And make impressed sounds at the stunts.]

Re: The Core

[othellovonryan]

[Tiny Donnie will too and there is a lot of laughing, but also a lot of watching his family. Because he's memorized the movies.]

[So she can stay and watch until the game ends unless she chooses to do something else.]

Re: The Core

[despitethenora]

[She thinks they’ve handled the corruption, so she’ll stay, and take comfort.]

Re: The Core

[othellovonryan]

[Enjoy the wonderful energy of Crouching Shrimp, Hidden Tiger Prawn and a family being cute in the meantime.]
