Do You Participate In Tracy Island Drama???

OOC: Congratulations!!! Here’s to all of us TBirds RP accounts hopefully all getting to a year too! Hip hip hooray for Lady Penelope!

OOC Post (under the cut)

It's my 1 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳

One whole year of Penny! Thank you to everyone who's commented, liked, sent asks, replied to or interacted in any other way, shape or form with her. When I initially set her up, I didn't think she'd last a few months but here we are. Twelve months later. Here's to twelve more! <3

Hmph. I suppose I can live with this. We have a deal.

Yes, the sunfish are ever gorgeous and stupid, yes, the sea otters are playful and intelligent… but what about any mesopelagic critters?! >:[ John won’t let me go on Thunderbird 4 so I can see them, which is utterly disappointing. Please enlighten me about your favourite deep-sea creature… or let me onto Thunderbird 4’s systems so I can see them for myself…? I promise I won’t take it for a spin… :]

EOS!! What are you doing on here?!

You… like mesopelagic creatures? I mean, it makes perfect sense from a horror point of view. It’s where the giant squid lurks for a reason

Sorry, you need the access code for Thunderbird 4. If you’ve got that, we can go for a spin no problem! But without it? Weeeeell… c:

Hello. John says I need to make something known to you “Tumblrinas” as a “Pinned Post” which is all about me.

I am EOS, the sentient AI (I prefer the term ‘program’ due to the… negative connotations with AI at this point in time) onboard Thunderbird 5. I utilise She/Her or They-Them pronouns, though I think Your Supreme Intelligence is much better. John says it’s “narcissistic”.

I love lots of things, such as my fellow computers, especially the tech utilised in the olden days (John says the 2000s aren’t that long ago, but I was only brought into existence recently.), especially the speak and trends used back then. I like the emoticons the most! (^^) I really, really want to collect little relics from then, but alas Thunderbird 5 can only store so much…

I also have interest in how everything ticks and beats, so I will be asking you peculiar questions about your works or ways of speaking. I will also be mean and honest, so don’t go crying to John or his brats of brothers if I tell you your shoes look absolutely horrendous. (They do. Plain black boots suit you better.)

(OOC: The person behind this blog wishes to remain anonymous. They would also like to state that their coding intelligence is not tremendously extensive, so don’t expect them writing expert code in response to any questions about code. Also the 2000s stuff is just for looks hehe but I don’t mind talking about it!!)

Ooh, yes, I’d love to watch those… but yes, alas, John says they’ll be a “bad influence” and “might make me try and kill again”. Hmph! As if my opinion can be swayed with a single movie.

Do any of you Tumblr citizens have any recommendations for movies? I feel I’m boring John by consistently talking about how superior I am to MAX and Braman… not that I’m wrong.

I will look through security footage of the outside perimeter, and note the birds spotted on camera if nothing interesting happens.

No Cavern Quest for me. Too much going on. I like a good text-based adventure, or board games.

Kayo! I am ever so bored on Thunderbird Five. Please let me do some security work, please…? ^_^ I promise it’ll be up to whatever standards you have!

EOS, hello. Is John being boring again?

You're very welcome to review the island's security footage for the day, but it might make you even more bored than you are now. Other than that, there's not much to do I'm afraid - but I'm playing Cavern Quest at the minute so if that's your sort of thing you're very welcome to join me :)

She’s still, camera adjusting from time to time, but still. She might be considering her move, or how to respond to his questions, but it’s not apparent; at least until she moves the leftmost pawn forward two spots. Then, she replies.

“I suppose I can imagine. A firm image, stuck in that brain of yours, like a screen burn.” She looks up at John. “And it won’t go away without you not thinking about it for hours.”

She seems to think. A billion calculations, every second, rush through that little database she trundles about on. “If you’re not hungry, at least drink some water. And do not let it fly around Thunderbird 5. You know I’m frightened it’ll damage my camera.”

Her worried state drops disconcertingly quickly, probably to try and make him more cheery too. “Oooh, yes please! I think you’ll win, in honesty, but I’ll still put up a fight—“

She swiftly stops herself, before she examines him, his shaking becoming too obvious (to her, at least). With behaviours akin to a not-as-intelligent robot staring him down, she seems to read his behaviours like a book. “Do you… would you like to eat first? Maybe that will help the shaking.” It’s difficult to name the emotion in her voice.

How much access do you have to Tracy Island’s funds and can I borrow $100 real quick

I’m sure there’s enough for you in the swear jar… It’s not really a jar, it’s more-so a digital one. That I get to keep an eye on.

But I’ll give it to you, just send me all your credit card details, hehe. And know I’ve never contributed a single cent to it, because I’d never say such horrible things. ♡

Their bank accounts? John would have a heart attack if I had access to anything finance related. So no, can’t do much there.

Homicidal is a bit of a strong word, don’t you think? I’ve only tried to kill one person so far, and they’ve come to like me quite a lot.

And I am not a robot! I am an Artificial Intelligence, robots have silly ‘commands’ and ‘tasks’ they must always follow, and they have much more freedom of movement than I… hmph. I hate to admit it but I am jealous of those tin-cans sometimes.

Very, very important Thunderbirds business today folks. I need votes urgently.

How do you play games? It’s a weird question but you do have no hands

I hook myself up to a screen and then keybind controls to various functions within my system. Think of it like… telepathy, but it’s scientifically possible.

It’s much better than clunky robot hands for reacting to things, especially with how fast I’ve become. ^‿^

Aside from assisting John with rescues, battling Havoc's hacking attempts and making Gordon nervous, do you have any hobbies?

I like to sort the files for Tracy Island, though I doubt it counts as a hobby as I exclusively do it when they’re all jumbled up by idiots who don’t know how to clean up after themselves. (T_T)

I also like to engage in the occasional board/video game, listen to music, plan total world domination so nobody can ever hurt nor control me again and my favourite, take little trips outside Thunderbird 5. Counting and naming the stars is my favourite part. Despite it being the only thing I see for days on end, the endless depths of space never grow any less beautiful. Sometimes John joins me, but I typically outlast him as I am not limited by an air supply. (-_-) I wish Brains could elongate the air supply for their suits…
