[He knows this is the woman he spoke to in her dream, the one with the wings. She had been generally kind to him, not that this means she is at all trustworthy.

But he needs help, and she's one of the people who consistently comes up as good with technology. Specifically this technology.]

You're the hacker?

[ no answer, 2 ded ]

I'm *a* hacker, sure. You're the J(ay?) from the dream, right? I'd recognise that lack of pleasantries anywhere. :P
How can I help?

[ sure she's just revived and spent the night in a fucking morgue but W/E TIME TO HELP ]

[It's been two more days since he sent this message and he thought she was deliberately ignoring it. He wouldn't blame her. Someone must have found out what he'd done and warned everyone, he's just surprised he hasn't seen a notice go up for a manhunt yet.

Sadly, despite her teasing, he doesn't make any attempt to inject more pleasantries.]

I need to change my username. I know it's supposed to be impossible, but nothing is impossible if you find the right back door or code.

My best friend's username is dickcheese, friend. He wouldn't still be running around with that if we had any way of changing it. >__>;; And we're both hackers! Expert ones, at that. He literally plugged himself into the network and everything.
I think it may not be as simple a process as it should be. The tablets - the network in general - is strange. When people destroy or otherwise lose their tablets, the next one they discover immediately becomes 'theirs:' they're signed in, their files are there, etcetera. At first I assumed it was done via some kind of advanced recognition software, though I didn't know what it was recognising. Faces, fingerprints, brainwaves - they can change or be concealed. A soul would be a possibility, should those exist. But now with the revelations about the administrator's true nature, since she (possibly quite literally) has eyes everywhere I'm wondering if she just manually ensur

Um, sorry. Rambling.
My point is that it's impossible with how things are at the moment. How badly do you need it changed? Have you tried appealing to the administrator directly?

[He trusts her less and less the longer she goes on.

Nobody can ramble over text, not when you have to physically put thought and effort into typing, it's all just an act. A smokescreen. Though to cover up what, he isn't sure yet. It doesn't matter anyway, not for now. What is important is that she isn't going to help him.

Can't or won't, he hasn't decided what he believes there yet.]

It's urgent.

[Explain? No.]

If you find a way to do it, contact me. I can trade for the service.

Dude. Why would you need to trade for it?? \o__o/ If I find out how then I'm hardly likely to get mercenary about what should be a few lines of code. If that. :P
If I ask about why it's urgent you aren't going to answer, are you? Could you at least tell the administrator?
She's good at keeping secrets, clearly. And it might make her accept your request! Assuming it's a good reason.

[ Which it... very likely is, since Captain Untalkative has contacted her of his own volition. Hmmm. ]

[He can't go to the administrator, that would be the epitome of stupid decisions. Whoever they really are, fellow captive or orchestrator, they're not to be trusted. He already feels like he has a target on his back every time he uses these tablets.]

No admin.

[Why is she so keen on him talking to the admin? Is she working for them?]

No reason either.

[That's a lie.]

(≖д≖﹆)
If there's no reason then it isn't urgent, you doof!! But I won't pry. You can be as prickly and secretive as you like! :P
Can I ask if you're alright, though? Generally?
(Sorry for the fuss if it isn't warranted but I'm assuming that you're alone and probably actively avoiding people and that's dangerous around here)

[His lips twist in a bitterly amused smile that she can't see. Dangerous to avoid people, she says. She has no idea how wrong she is.]

I'm unhurt.

[He only answers because he doesn't want her worrying over him.]

If there is no way to change name, is there a way to block contacts?

Being hurt isn't the same thing as being okay! But I can back off, I suppose. >n>;
No way to block people either, that I've found. Unless filtering your posts away from them counts! You can do that under the privacy settings, it's pretty simple.
It doesn't keep them from contacting you, though. Is someone harassing you? Do you need someone to talk to them on your behalf??

[He's really not buying into her concern. She's being just as nosy as everyone else, only masking it under the guise of friendliness. It probably even works on a lot of people.]

No. I don't need any help like that.

[This is useless. She's no help at all.]

Forget it.

[And he hangs up.]

Let me know if you change your

[ Oh. ]

mind?

[ Shoot. Hopefully he's just grumpy and not offended?? ]
