i mostly wanted it to be easy for us to move it around if it got in the way or if we're piling up by the bed
..but i got too ambitious
noct helped me find one of those conveyor belt things! and it's like the same principle as the belt that starts a car engine anyway.. lol

no problem igs!! hopefully you get to be home soon so you can see it in action!

[cheffeur]

Well, if it can move independently, that would be ideal for us. Then it could even relocate when we aren't present.

[things he will regret, should he ever go blind: okaying an independently moving AC-bot that scuttles about at knee-height.]

I shouldn't be out too long. I look forward to seeing it.

[mercurio]

okay!!!!!

[prompto is barely containing his excitement, if his exclamation marks are anything to go by--]

oh and it also has a secret feature is gonna surprise the gloves offa you

[cheffeur]

I'll have you know I'm not terribly fond of surprises.

[mercurio]

i know

[cheffeur]

And will I be able to convince you to spoil that surprise and just tell me?

[mercurio]

it sings!

[HE WAS HOPING YOU'D ASK]

[cheffeur]

[ ... ]




Please tell me you're joking.

[mercurio]

well, "sing" is an over statement
it's more like it does 10 second long sounds when it starts or finishes a task
and it's 8-bit sounds too!

you know like when the laundry is finished? just like that!

[cheffeur]

What tasks does it do other than air conditioning?

[mercurio]

lol that's all
it keeps company...?

[cheffeur]

So it will just start singing when it turns on or off. Why would you need that?

[mercurio]

so that you're aware that it is following the on/off command

[IGNIS...]

[cheffeur]

Yes, but wouldn't you know by whether or not it was actually expelling cool air?

[mercurio]

ok so you're thinking i should remove it from the programming or...
noct likes the feature

[use the favorite son card]

[cheffeur]

I think it's redundant.

[wow prompto you know him so well.]

We'll see how he feels after listening it for a week.

[mercurio]

you haven't even heard what the tunes are like!

[cheffeur]

Well, here is your opportunity to regale me with them.

[mercurio]

dude

could you not

just meet silas first

[he HEARS THE TONE]

[cheffeur]

It should be a simple thing to record it and send me a clip.

[mercurio]

meet silas and then you'll hear
i'm at work anyway

[cheffeur]

Is it already functioning at home, then?

[mercurio]

not right now
i programmed it to turn on an hour before 4AM when we start filing back in from work

[cheffeur]

In other words, when no one's around to hear it sing.

[mercurio]

you could turn it off and on again y'know
i didn't think you wanted to put it through the test of "insomnian idol"
