Raiu-37: Is this working?
37: Test.
37: Alright!
Raiu-12: Oh hey, a new guy.
12: Yeah it works.
12: We're reading you.
12: So did Prime fork you off or was it someone else.
37: It was Prime. He needed someone to head off to Alpha Centari to make sure the colonists there don't blow themselves up by putting in the wrong code.
37: Which seems a bit lazy. I mean, shouldn't we have tested the program for bugs first?
12: What program?
37: You don't know?
12: God Damn it!
12: Sorry, not yelling at you. I'm yelling at Prime for not remembering how forking works.
12: I guess that's what happens when you're a brain recreated from a Turing Scion. None of the others came out complete, so why should we be any different?
12: Anyway, when a fork is created, what is created is a copy of that person at that instant. They have all the memories of that person, for the most part, but they're a different person.
12: Since you're just logging in, I'm guessing you a few minutes old. He just shoved you onto a shuttle, didn't he?
37: Yeah, I... He did. I know what he had planned, but it was weird.
12: Yeah, it was the same for me.
37: Oh?
12: Well, I wasn't thrown into a shuttle, but my prime did kinda do the same thing.
37: "My prime?"
12: Yeah. I'm not a fork of Prime. My prime is 7, and he forked me off to take care of a bit of business in Hong Kong. It's still going on.
12: Crap. I got to jet. Something came up. I'll be back later.
[Raiu-12 has logged off. ~All work and no play makes a burnt out Raiu.~]
37: Is anyone else here.
37: Oh right! If this is based off of IRC then...
37: Holy cow! We're up to 99 already?!
Raiu-99: WhAt do u want
99: im tying 2 slep
37: Sorry about that 99.
99: Don't type my number! It fucking pings louder than a goddamn circus in my head every time you do that!
Raiu-3: Shut up 99.
3: He's new, 99.
3: Give him a break 99.
99: Fuck off 3!
3: How about no, 99.
3: Or do you not like it when I ping you, 99?
3: Huh, 99?
99: goddamn it! I'm trying to sleep!
3: Apologize or I'll get 4 to start pinging you as well. You know she's secretly a sadist.
3: She'll get a kick out of that.
99: OK! FINE! Sorry new guy. Now let me sleep!
3: Just remember to log out this time.
[Raiu-99 has logged off. Do Not Disturb.]
3: Sorry about 99. He's on Mercury right now, and I bet all that thermal sheeting isn't stopping all the heat.
3: And no, he's not actually 99. I think he changed his number while no one was on. Dunno his real number.
37: Yeah, thanks for that.
3: Don't really care enough to find out either. Need anything?
37: Not really, but who's 4?
3: Raiu-4. She's the fork that happened after me. She's a bit different.
3: And if you tell her I said that, I will find you and force you to merge with 2.
37: What?
3: Just think of it as a promise. You're figure it out eventually.
3: Anyway, the food just got here, so I'll be back. brb
