I'm so glad Kneedree is taking steps to encourage it! A clip from above shows Goodboy and Lucky carrying timber and scrap metal together. At one point, they attempt to hug each other. The music fades out. As the following words appear, a soft piano tune accompanies them. > Response: all information is good information.\\ > Objective: Will attempt to recover information. A series of video clips appear, spliced together in quick succession: vivid cartoon animals dance jerkily on a stage, humans in dark clothing point furious fingers at each other, human children smile over a flashing price tag, proudly holding up brightly coloured ration packs. Finally, a pair of humans stand in a dark street under the pouring rain, fingers entwined. The video slows down and lingers on the final clip, as more words appear: > Synthesis Station: is very kind. A close up on a plant with large, feather-like leaves which appears to have had a fuel tank attached to it. Pan across to some sort of symbiosis occurring between a tuber-sprouting plant and the tree on whose bark it grows. > “Two figures in cooperation, companionship, love. Watched over by a high presence. Two humans in the shade of an angel's wings. VI, The Lovers.”\\ > Information: I love you too. The broadcast ends. ===== The All Star ===== The following song is broadcast over the Net, patched together from bits and pieces: {{ :all_star_broadcast_online-audio-converter.com_.mp3 |}} Hey Now Satellite My world’s on fire, how ‘bout yours? shooting stars I hit the ground running Didn’t make sense You’ll never know what’s wrong I need to get myself away from this place And we could all use a little change Somebody once asked Could I spare some change for gas? It’s a cool place and they say it gets colder Hey now What’s wrong my world’s on fire the meteor start coming and they don’t stop coming and I hit the ground running Only shooting stars break The water’s getting warm so you might as well swim bundled up now That’s the way I like it She was looking for the satellite you’re an all star You’ll never know Somebody once told me they don’t stop looking in the satellite picture wait till I hit the ground running you don’t go Hey now, you're an all star You’re a rock star And all that glitters is gold Only shooting stars break the mold… =====Large Feline===== A giant cat has been seen rampaging the streets and forests near the megastructure. It is about 4 storeys tall and is accumulating fans everywhere it goes, it is joined by a posse of smaller cats. Bots are warned of its size, capability of destruction and large appetite. {{ :undertale_text_box2.gif?600 |}} =====Doombears===== {{:screenshot_2020-11-07_at_11.43.45.png?180 |}} **A Neon pastel pamphlet finds its way into your inbox, it reads:** //The bear of doom from fire is wrought.// //His golden eyes with ire are fraught.// //His blazing gaze ignites the skies and burns the earth with mercy nought.// //His roar like thunder rocks the land.// \\ //O Doombear!// //Give me your command.// //Provide for me, your devotee, and lend to me your guiding hand.// \\ //Give in thy soul to mighty bear.// //Discard thy woes.// //Of naught beware!// //For doom he brings to all his foes, and to his enemies, despair,// //But those who to the bear comply,// //O Mighty Bear, up in the sky!// //From doom and death they will be spared and live in peace until they die// {{ :screenshot_2020-11-10_at_11.31.50.png?700 |}} =====Ticker Offline===== The power grid is temporarily relying on the Skydock wind farm, Laver undersea nuclear power station, and a contribution from the Solar Sailors while the Ticker recovers from an EMU-related incident. Help from any construction-capable robots (//NOT EMUs//) is requested for recalibration and sorting of defective fuel units. The Reactor Corps have issued a request that robots who are not self-sufficient should avoid high-power activities, while those who are should contribute spare reserves to the grid where possible. This comes at a particularly bad time, since the biofuel distillery also remains offline. A large "No EMUs" sign has been erected outside the Ticker entrance. {{ :noemu.jpg?250 }} {{ :screenshot_2020-11-10_at_15.45.01.png?600 |}} ===== Orphanage Repairs ===== Appliance Alliance is happy to report that, thanks to the hard work of several kind volunteers (including the Brass Duke themself!)
