[947 Beulah; ALSO IN YOUR VOCALOID'S HEADPHONES]

[So HEY Vocaloids! You remember how in Hatsune Mix, Rin had wireless communications?

Well, now she has that back. Except, she didn't exactly realize that's what she got, so she's gone through her day with her headphones on as usual. And if you have them, they're turned on and connected to yours! At first it'll be like someone butt-dialed you - nothing but bits of static and rustling around. But since Rin thinks she's alone, eventually you'll hear her idly singing.]

By myself I can, take off my panties, take off my panties, take off my panties all right~ ♪

[If you happen to be around the house, she's just doing some laundry. However, you MIGHT be in for a surprise if you open the hall closet: There's a headless robot clown in there. Forgot to mention her other regain.]

[Later, on the Nadesico's wireless network:]

[an image has been posted, accessible by anyone with a computer, phone or etc. that's connected to Ruri's network. Rin wanted to get this out without Lucas knowing, since he was such a stubborn butt about getting other people involved!! (And so is she.) So the internet seemed like a good medium. Anyway, the image is thus, and it comes with a simple message.]





Found this in the other 501. Discuss?

[and that reminds her. Later on, she'll be calling people she met in the Carnival to check up on them.]

Hey, it's Rin. How are you doing? ♪

HEADPHONES!

[thepurpleway]

[Luckily for Gakupo, he has his headphones now. Unfortunately, they are the ones from MAGNET. His are the blue butterfly ones. He just happens to try them on for funsies and got an earful of static and singing.

That sounds like Rin.]

Eh? Rin?

[roadroller]

[ there is a bit of a crash as she drops the laundry soap-- ]

Gakupo! ♪

[thepurpleway]

Are we...really communicating like this?!

[roadroller]

I-I don't know, I had nothing to do with this. Didn't you call me? ♪

[please say yes]

[thepurpleway]

No, I didn't. I was just trying on my new headphones and then I hear you singing with some static.

[roadroller]

Oh. ♪


[.... awkward.]


Um, I-I guess I turned them on by accident? Although I didn't think this would work in Mayfield. ♪

[thepurpleway]

Well, now we know! So...how exactly is this happening?

[roadroller]

It's a feature of the headphones! I discovered it one day when Hachune was on a rampage. They can be like transceivers! ♪

[thepurpleway]

All this time I thought they were for show...well, at least I thought the ones I have now were.

[roadroller]

Eh? Something wrong with your headphones, Gakupo? ♪

[thepurpleway]

Ah, no, not really.

[genkibot]

[Tachikoma likes to passively keep an eye on the wireless network. With the small amount of people that use it, it's not hard to notice when anything happens on it.

Though it was slightly surprised someone was trying to make a voice communication on it now! That's a first! Tachikoma is still puzzling over the static when it hears the singing going on. It doesn't take long to remember where it heard that voice before!

Oh! Maybe Rin is trying to contact Kaito! He just showed up a few days ago, so maybe she just wanted to say hello! Maybe it should go let him know, since he might not have an ability to wirelessly communicate back yet! So off Tachikoma goes to find Kaito and to play the sound it's receiving.]

Mister Kaito! Mister Kaito! I think your friend Rin is trying to get a hold of you!

[recklessice]

[Kaito enlightens when Tachikoma mentioned Rin's name. Sadly, he doesn't have his ear mic, which usually he uses it for communicate with his siblings. He approaches next to Tachikoma, giving him a head pat for doing a good job. He's a pet anyway.

Kaito leans on, trying to figure out what Rin is talking about behind the static. Only his expression changes, when he recognized the lyric.]

...I have a request, if you can mute right away.

[Talk about pride. Sort of.]

[genkibot]

[Yay praise! Tachikoma looks a little confused. Well, confused for an urban tank vehicle with white bowling ball visual sensors can look, but still mutes the call.]

Well, okay, but don't you want to say hello though? I can make it so anything you say picked by my audio sensors are sent to her!

[recklessice]

[Thinks about this for a moment. While it's good to know Tachikoma able to mute himself but not the original source. What if someone else interrupts Rin's signal when using phone? That would be quite disaster for her pride.]

That would be good idea. Do I need to speak on something?

[Like microphone or something else attached to Tachikoma?]

[genkibot]

[Oh come now, for Tachikoma to mute the original source, it'd have to use a program to tell the device to stop broadcasting, essentially to 'hang up!' And that's just a bit close to invading someone's privacy!]

You can just speak out loud! My audio sensors can detect sound at even 10 decibels! I'll make sure to unmute when they reply so you can hear what they say as well!

[recklessice]

[Well, Kaito is indeed impressed!]

Great! I'm counting on you then!

[Then a short pause before he speaks again and this time is indicate to the receiver.]

Rin, can you hear me?

[roadroller]

... Kaito-nii? ♪

[what the? She'd just gotten off the headphone with Gakupo!]

Yeah, I can hear you, but ... ♪

[don't tell her that broadcast all over]

Kaito -> Rin -> Tachikom sound good?

[genkibot]

[Tachikoma pipes up too, realizing that as the device providing Kaito the communication, Rin should know that it's here too.]

Hi Miss Rin! It's me Tachikoma here as well! I'm helping Mister Kaito by relaying your call! But don't worry, if there's anything you want kept private, I can double encrypt the data!

Okay o/

[recklessice]

[Kaito pats Tachikoma to get his attention.]

We won't take too long.

[And again, his voice changes as he sounds a little disbelief.]

Yes, Rin. Tachikoma here did well on stealing your signal. It's fine you can sing whenever you want, but out of all songs...

[Gosh, he can't imagine it if this broadcasts in radio.]

[roadroller]

[oh

oh god. fml.]

Th-that wasn't even supposed to be a call! ♪

And then I drop the ball this, sorry guys. >.<

[genkibot]

It wasn't?

And I didn't steal the signal, it was being broadcast openly on the wireless network!

Anybody with a wireless audio receiver could hear it!

[Not helping Tachikoma. Not helping at all.]

It's okay! We're cool!

[recklessice]

[Good job, Tachikoma. Kaito is not sure he should give him a praise or he should worry about the public wireless network.]

Obviously, not.

Well, glad that we had stopped you before you could sing further. But I'm afraid if that happened again, I'm going to take that mic of yours.

[Kaito-nii is being awfully serious, okay? :|]

[roadroller]

Well, that explains Gakupo...

It definitely won't. ♪

[genkibot]

Aw, does this mean I won't be able to talk to you on the network then?

It was nice hearing someone for a change!

[recklessice]

Not Gakupo too?!

[Again pats his pet.]

Of course you are allowed to talk to her or anyone on the network. It's surprising discovery, isn't it?

[roadroller]

Ehe, I don't mind talking! Just not on accident... ♪

[genkibot]

Oh, okay! But don't worry! Accidental transmissions happen all the time!

At least you weren't speaking about any secret information or something devastating like that!

It's nice to know you can also transmit voice over the network as well. So far, at most I've seen text and files.

Oh! And pictures! There's this one server that has tons of pictures on it! I'm not sure why they're all there, but it seems anyone is allowed to look at them, and quite a few people have!

[recklessice]

[You're my hero today. DO IT! HACK ALL THOSE FILES!]

I'm pretty much curious about the network, the text and files, as well the pictures. But admitly I must say, you gotta be an awesome spy for this job.

[roadrolling]

[wait I thought Rin was at home doing chores while I picked up some groceries]

♪ Rin?

oh my god I'm so sorry this is so late

[roadroller]

Ahaha... hiiii, Len! ♪

[after the other conversations she's just going to try to play it off.]
