Favourite Swear Word

EOS, with as much smugness as an unmoving camera can convey, takes his knight with her queen. “I do think something needs your attention, John.”

She goes back and forth on the spot, as if trying to replicate some action of joy. She watches his expression, carefully, as if suddenly frightened she’s angered her tired creator.

Go Back To Sleep [RP]

@i-am-the-dawn-aka-eos:

She nods. “I’m just monitoring the frequency of a few boats, they seem to be testing some new hull tech. If it goes wrong, well, let’s say I get lots of time to plot my next move.” She snickers, before making a move. The Earth, shining big, bright and blue below, decides to shine a little more sharply, lighting up the section they sat in with a glow akin to the light of an aquarium, blue and brilliant, with the stars acting as the fast, silvery fish, and the faint presence of the moon a large ray. And then, as swiftly as it started, the Earth shone a little less brightly, the stars slinking away back to being little flicks of paint against the deep dark, the moon as rough as sandpaper. But still, it felt pleasant, not so harsh, and familiar. EOS seemed to watch the changes with him, the change's nothing new, but always welcome.

"Let me know if it needs my attention." That dreaded crumple is back between his eyebrows, and John, now on the edge of his seat, looks plenty ready to drag himself up into the commsphere and throw his tired corpse into work at a moment's notice. Absently, he moves his next chess piece; foolishly landing a knight right where Eos' queen can easily take it. He doesn't seem to have noticed - neither that nor the shifting light reflecting off the planet below. His eyes are more half-lidded than open, and he muffles another yawn in his palm.

They're not currently geostationary, and Five has been slowly passing from the daylight side of the globe into the shadow of night. Maybe the darkness will finally persuade the anxiety John's been rife with that he really would be better off asleep. The bright artificial lighting inside the gravity ring isn't going to help with that though.

Reboot me?! You’d never! And I promise on my servos that I wouldn’t switch off your air supply. Can I not satiate my curiosity without being accused of trying to kill you?

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:

Good grief. I leave briefly to sort through my backups and now my ‘dash’ is full of every single Tracy is weeping over the things that have happened to their ships. Surely you can’t be that attached to a vehicle?

So.... considering you started off with game architecture, which is superior? X-box , Playstation, or PC?

Personal Computer, all the way. Especially with recent generations of console having next to no exclusive games, and ports of older games coming to PCs. Unless the consoles step it up, I’m sticking with my lovely little computer! (＾＾)

…but, if I could, I’d collect consoles and their controllers… they are ever so pretty, some of them, but alas Thunderbird 5 can only carry so much. (^^;)

Gordon has been… unwilling in giving me the access code to Thunderbird Four. He did promise to send me some pictures of deep sea creature, however.

Hi EOS.

Have you ever considered taking a deep swim? Servers and all? Maybe in a nice reef somewhere?

Gordon, is that you? Hmph. I will not be dumping my precious servers and backups into a reef. John would not be happy with the cleanup… If my camera was built to resist the depths, then I would not mind putting my camera, and camera alone, into the ocean.

After careful analysis, I think the planets are too big and bright. Maybe something with just stars would fit me more…

Favourite bedsheet colour? I myself do enjoy a sleek grey bed 🩶 (it's a very telling, important question).

ehh, this is really childish but I have dark blue with stars and planets... They're John's old sheets and they help me sleep. But if I had to choose a full colour I'd probably say white or dark blue. No, not red, because it's way too bright.

Haha! You deserved that. I’ll spend my free time making sure you stay that way… don’t want you running around and hurting me again. (`曲´)

⸨◺_◿⸩ I’m going to keep an eye on you, Havoc. I will not allow your viruses to put me out of commission like that ever again! Do not bother making new ones. I am the Dawn, I will always catch up…

Unfortunately, the GDF confiscated all my tech stuff, and I'm under supervision to make sure I can't set anything up

So you can breathe easy

I keep finding crumbs of those silly little celery crunch bars you brought aboard. Have you no respect for keeping technology in working order!? Poor Thunderbird 4… (;Д;)

How often do you see John?

not often enough love u @starman-john-tracy

As often as his very important duties on Thunderbird Five allow.

Mainly because @i-am-the-dawn-aka-eos has banned me from visiting.

I can assist the expedition, if you so wish, Fischler. I promise my management of life support and other important survival aspects won’t get International Rescue involved. John can back me up; I am excellent at keeping him alive.

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 also really like stamps and blinkies, and may “reblog” posts with them.

(According to John, block the “tw flashing lights” tag in case you don’t want to see any flashing ones! I will give this tag to all my (re)posts with flashing blinkies/stamps, as I don’t want to kill any of you… yet.)

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!!)

Here is my current collection of stamps that I think represent me the most. Beware, flashing lights are below the cut…

Hiya!!! I hope you're having a nice day :)

Which Thunderbird is your favourite? (Besides Thunderbird 5, of course)

Besides Thunderbird 5? You’re so cruel. If I had to pick (which I’d rather not), it’d be Thunderbird Shadow. The engineering is something rather different from the others, in a good way, like the motorbike integration and landing gear. It’s almost like it’s showing off how much better it is compared to the other Thunderbird… I wonder if I can override its autopilot and fly it for myself… oh, ahem.
