[Oddly, Rika never seems to have made it to the end post of the last game. Look for her, y/n?]

Oooor are you just afraid they'd try to spoil the fun?

[moextispicy]

[sarcastic applause]

[zettai]

I don't really want some stuck in the mud ruining everything either... Can't we just get them to do the boring stuff and keep them in the dark about the rest?

[moextispicy]

I guess it's worth a shot. [still not totally enthused about the idea, but more resigned to it] If they're too much of a pain about it, we can kick them back to camp without their memory and find someone else.

[zettai]

Sounds like a plan~! [giggle] Who did you have in mind, then?

[moextispicy]

I think the only person I know who's probably decent with computers is Accelerator. Unless you know anyone.

[zettai]

[...]

Not in particular.

[moextispicy]

Tch, still useless. Go get him, would you?

[zettai]

That's no way to talk to someone who's helping you!

[but disappears back outside for now]

[moextispicy]

[will be waiting]

[velocivector]

[Despite having not been involved in Hazama's game, Accelerator is not difficult to find. At least, not difficult for the Witch of Certainty to find. Specialized magic is convenient that way.

It's not long before Lambdadelta returns with him in tow.]

[zettai]

[jerks a thumb in Accelerator's direction and speaks to Rika] I got him. But I thought I'd leave it to you to take care of most of the explaining, 'cause I'm useless like that.

[moextispicy]

[was sitting there thinking when they return, the environment unchanged.]

Thanks. Accelerator, how good are you with computers?

[velocivector]

[glances at the computer Rika's at, then at her, and notes the condition of her hands. his brow furrows]

Reasonably good. It depends on what you want done.

[moextispicy]

This computer is what runs the Cry Wolf game. I want to reprogram it.

[velocivector]

. . . Is it, now?

[motions with a hand]

Give me that seat. I gotta see what this thing runs on.

[moextispicy]

[moves obligingly]

[velocivector]

[takes the vacated spot, sets his cane down on the floor and starts clacking away at the keys, opening certain windows and navigating his way through whatever the computer will allow him to]

All right, I'm no hacker, but these specs are definitely doable for my skill level. The hard part will be accessing the program code in case the changes have to be done manually. [has been staring at the screen this whole time, but finally looks over to address her specifically:] What specific changes are you aiming to make? [there's the obvious, but those are vague ideas at best]

[moextispicy]

Can you erase it entirely, so that the game can't be played again?

[something flat about her tone subtly suggests that she expects the answer will be no]

[velocivector]

I can try . . . I did once delete viral malcode from Last Order's brain by taking control of the electrical signals in her brain and replacing it with the original copy of her personality files . . . She's a human computer, you see. The problem here [points thumb at screen] is you have to keep in mind that Naoto and Raven might have already tried erasing the data and failed. The best they managed was some kind of alert system that ended up not being enough. We're gonna have to be careful of whatever security this has.

[moextispicy]

I guess if Lambda couldn't blow it up, blowing up the software isn't likely to work either. Tch.

[zettai]

So no room for me to step in, huh? [shrugs and puts her arms behind her head] I'll just leave this in the hands of our competent experts, then. I'm no good with this complicated stuff. Just let me know if you need firepower!

[moextispicy]

[semi-fondly] Idiot.

[and to Accelerator] What do you think you can do to it? You're in the best position to say.

[velocivector]

[looks at the screen again and searches through windows as he explains]

Most likely, if I study how the security works I could figure out how to circumvent that with electrical signals and do something similar to how I removed that virus. I'll need to obtain the raw code for both versions of the game for that.

. . . [taps at something on the screen] It looks like this is inaccessible. What do you think?

[moextispicy]

I got locked out of it when the last game ended.
