the garden
 Early in the morning, yet again, the test subjects get to wake up to Calhoun’s dulcet tones. Through a megaphone. “Hey! Lazy test subjects, get your human rears up!” Once everyone is moderately awake and gathered, Calhoun will continue. “You all did such a great job last round, and everyone’s been so pathetic lately, that I, your glorious, merciful host, decided to open a room for you! Remember, rooms are a privilege, not a right! That means!” He takes a deep breath to scream out the next parts: “Don’t. Break. My. Stuff!!” He eyes at a few people in the crowd before leading everyone up to the second floor, where a new door will now be openable. Once inside there is a surprisingly refreshing breeze and bright light flooding from the ceiling. Welcome to the Garden! The roof of the garden is made up of what appears to be grids with screens depicting a blue sky during daylight hours and a starry night during the evening (they must be sunlamps because the light from the ceiling feels warm and, yes, finally some vitamin D for you sad test subjects). It appears to be more of a dome than anything else, but the grass is green, there’s a few trees around, some flowers, a bench here and there, and even a little waterfall that creates a small creek around the garden! Sure, there aren’t any edible plants, fruits, or vegetables around, the water is freezing, everything feels almost artificial, but this is a lot better than the cold, monochrome, and bleak look of the warehouse so far, so unless everyone else wanted to stay in the boring lobby instead of here, there wasn’t much to complain about. Well, have fun! Enjoy your new surroundings. |

I'm not certain, it would make sense if there was. I always assumed there was more than one of Calhoun, or at least multiple people controlling him.
[His brow furrows, serious stuff.] Maybe it's something we should try testing ourselves, one of these days.

...As long as we're in different teams, that's at least two. Depending on who's in the other groups, we might be able to make sure he's activated in each room. And if we can force him to keep talking to us the whole time...
no subject
That would certainly give us an idea of how much he can stretch his attention. I'd like to see what happens if his physical form is distracted as well, if we could get someone to distract him at the shop we may be able to see. Even if he had to leave suddenly and head to wherever the other group was, that would suggest he only has one of those robotic forms active at a time.
no subject
We could probably test something like that out with only two people if we had to. We would just need a good opportunity...
no subject
Maybe we should try after the next Calhoun Hour, we should have coins then so someone can try to barter and distract him that way. It wouldn't be too suspicious.

Have the exact look in this icon.]
Ah... no. Not at all.
[He straightens a little] Heiji is, though. I'm sure he'd be more than willing to help.
no subject
Then next time you get a chance, could you ask him about it? I think it would be less suspicious if you talked to him.
[Because let's be real here, Sasuke has more or less established a pattern of wandering off on his own; it may just pique their host's interest if he was the one to approach Heiji about it out of the blue.]
