*So, for those who are at LDS, taking part in the New Horizons program, and what have you, there's a notice up in the main entryway of LDS's Domino building.

"Searching for Participants for Experimental Real Solid Vision Testing

Requirements include: Experience with supernatural phenomena AND/OR abilities related to supernatural phenomena.

Must be willing to run and be active. You will be dueling against a programmed AI for the purposes of the test.

Test will be cut short if any issues arise.

If wish to inquire, please come to testing room [XXXVXXX]

-- Yamada, Mamoru"

Doesn't this sound like fun?? You should totally join in on this.*

He takes a split second longer than he should to go 'eeep!' and turn to face you.

"Are we preparing our students for battles with monsters now?"

[thestudyof]

*Hnm.*

If you want to think of it like that. I just want to test the limits of what can be done with the Real Solid Vision technology.

It just happens to coincide with skills that might be necessary, since we're cooperating with the Spirit-Arcadia Institute.

[blackfeathergeneral]

He seems sharper than the loud, almost swaggering thug he was supposed to be on paper.

Wronski shrugs at that.

"Yeah? I mean, I guess there's some bad spirits out there, but as far as I've looked into, we've got other things for that. Though there's always worst case scenarios I suppose..." He taps on his chin.

"So, you're simulating big monsters, seeing if our kids can handle it, and if they can't, stop the test, all the while seeing if your system can do it? That's... mighty impressive Mister Yamada."

[thestudyof]

*... whatever. Not like it matters-- if it's a problem, the Akabas or Security should be able to handle it. He's here to work on the tech.*

There's a lot of things Real Solid Vision can do.

Besides, it's not just "big monsters" I'm trying to simulate. There's other things that need to be tested too.

The problem is making sure the simulation doesn't get too real.

[blackfeathergeneral]

"Oho? Like magic or something?"

[thestudyof]

... Let's put it like that, yes.

[blackfeathergeneral]

"I don't think I'd like to participate... But can I watch and see your findings?"

[thestudyof]

... If the participants don't mind.

I'm allowing them some level of confidentiality if they want it. Otherwise, I'll be publishing the results in a report for LDS.

[blackfeathergeneral]

"Oho? That sounds like a good read. If you don't mind me sitting in yourself, I think I will."

[thestudyof]

Fine. But you'll need to stay up in observation.

[blackfeathergeneral]

"Of course I can do that.

I guess there's no smoking in that."

[thestudyof]

I think I and the rest of the school would prefer you avoid smoking around equipment in an enclosed space, yes.

[blackfeathergeneral]

"Fine, fine."

He chuckles, slipping his cigarette into a pack.

"Lead the way Mister Yamada."

[thestudyof]

*hrnm.

he leads you to the testing room.

it looks normal. there's clearly a dueling AI on the far side though. one of the newest models-- LDS is fancy like that.*
