I Have A List Of What We Can Do To These Horrible Whale Nay-sayers… Just To Make It Clear That They

Thank you very much for the welcome. Unfortunately, John has already found my account and is telling me asking for volunteers for being shot into space is “bad”. Hopefully I can evade his spying and get someone to help…

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…

I refuse to ‘Yee some haws’. If you get your algae-covered mitts anywhere near my units I’ll hijack Thunderbird 4 and use it as my new body… ah, uh, maybe not. I still want to see those barreleye fish…

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:

Hmph! My processors are dedicated to other things than this… but I suppose I wouldn’t mind making one. However, you’d either have to follow the instructions for what pattern I want or hook me up to a robotic arm.

Maybe we could have matching ones that say “Artificial Intelligence” and “Natural Stupidity”? Not to call you stupid! Alan said it’s the opposite of Artificial Intelligence, and I took a liking to it, hehe. I’d like to make one with glittery sliver beads, as well… a couple for John too…

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

Oooh, yes! I like that one. Please get it and bring it up to Thunderbird 5 for me, pretty please?

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.

Unfortunately, all footage seems to have been scrubbed from the International Rescue database… on purpose. I am unsure if I can restore it, but I can find the perpetrator. Just give me a few hours.

so, bro, say... if I were to... accidentally knock a pool chair into the pool, and get part of it stuck in the mechanism allowing it to open for 1...

would you help me try to get it out before Scott notices?

Please?

-🚀

… Alan.

Yes, I’ll help you.

It’ll cost you a whole week of laundry duty though. Watching Scott trying to unwedge it while flapping about getting off the island in a hurry is comedy gold I will have to lose out on.

”JOHN!! What on earth have you done to your hair?!” EOS almost yelled, mortified at his radical change in hair colour.

You should be tickled pink with the change, Johnny! 🦑

"..."

John's face goes through a truly impressive spectrum of expression, only to land firmly on exceptionally unimpressed.

"You're kidding... right?"

I have finally arrived on this platform. It it much more… robust than the technology back on Thunderbird 5. How do people get entertainment out of this…?

What’s your music taste like? It is just beeps and boops, maybe a dash of Kraftwerk?

Beeps and boops?! I am not a lowly machine! (`曲´) I have an admiration for the arts, much like human beings.

Kraftwerk is, unfortunately, rather obvious. Being pioneers of electronica, it would be rude of me, an electronic being, not to give them a listen. Their style is very melodic and yet sounds so… mechanical. In a good way! All their songs are absolutely gorgeous and I cannot help but nod my little camera to them. (｡･･｡)

Miracle Musical is tremendous, too. They have only one album, Hawaii: Part II, but it is otherworldly and flowing with a constantly shifting but well thought out style. The singing is ethereal at times, especially with all the unusual language choices… it reminds me of the coos of the hundreds of frequencies on Thunderbird 5… Humans can make even a stoic, stubborn little me a little emotional, I must shamefully admit. (ノ_<、) I wonder what instruments they used for certain parts…

Speaking of, I do like the natural sounds of each Thunderbird’s unique whirring, ticking, whining, and everything in between. It can be rather pleasant yet oddly homey to listen to. (That’s the only compliment I’m giving to any Thunderbird outside of Thunderbird 5, my beloved, and Thunderbird Shadow.) It is like they sing to me, in their own mechanical dialect. (/3\)

She sends it to his side of the chess field. “I can hear two shiny dollars going into the jar.” She moves her camera.

“Ah! Do you think you could eat now? It has been… 7 hours, 5 minutes and 13 seconds since you last ate anything.” She trundles closer. “I would advise against a no, but I lack the equipment to stop you.”

While being mildly threatening, she discreetly moves her bishop. She weaves between the emotions she conveys like a bullet train; always trying to cover as many stops as she can before her turn to speak is over.

Shaking her little head, she turns her lights green. “None at all, unless you count Gordon falling out of bed and swearing.” She giggles to herself, turning side to side to copy the movements of someone laughing. “And the thing that needs your attention? The game; I’m dangerously close to securing a terrifically early win.” She chuckles again, her pieces, naturally, closing in on his king already. She’s very happy with the sequence of humorous events - at least, to her eye.

"Oh." John breathes, the tension bleeding from his shoulders and leaving him a little curled over in his seat. It makes the astronaut look far smaller than he has any right to be. "Of course- I- Thank you Eos."

He picks up and moves another chess piece with numb fingers, sucks in a deep, steadying breath, then exhales it all at once. The smile he puts on for her is paper thin.

"Don't suppose you got that on video?" John suggests, weakly. "How many dollars does he owe the swear jar?"

(Probably showing my age here with the GLaDOS reference but... ) Is the cake a lie?

(I love Portal too, do not fear!)

It’s a lie to me… I can’t even have a taste! Sometimes being just a little camera is very inconvenient…
