And why do you think you need me, a random POKEGO compsci major?

[Playing down his skills yep. He wants to see what this woman wants.]

[eiternity]

Because, I want to build a network that exists beyond the Order's prying eyes.

[Ei you have no social skills please.]

I was watching the network last month, and several people had their power sealed because they spoke against the Order. What if we could make a place to talk that existed outside of both the Order and Zodiac's eyes?

[killerapp]

And if you've been watching the app, you know I code.

[He can work with this.]

I've been trying to figure out how that would work for a while now. We don't have that level of infrastructure, unfortunately.

[eiternity]

Perhaps we didn't before. But now we have this.

[Ei pulls out a small object from her pocket. It looks to be a chess piece.]

This was a source of power in my home world. I was wondering why it would return to me here, when I discarded it in my first life. I believe this may be the reason.

[killerapp]

...a fancy chess piece? Also, who are you? I need a name.

[eiternity]

A battery. In simplest terms.

[Oh, that’s right. Spend enough time in your last life as a literal god and you forget to introduce yourself.]

My name is Ei Inazuma.

[killerapp]

...Inazuma Electronics?

[Seriously?!]

Okay, and in normal terms, what the heck is this battery? What does it do? Will it support a communications app, with video and image hosting? Filters?

[eiternity]

Correct.

[Ei’s expression turns somber.]

Although, if you look for me in the records, you will find nothing. I erased my past when I left the Order.

[It hurts, but it was the right thing to do.]

It can serve as a source of energy. An associate of mine once used her to act as a library, it held the combined knowledge of all her people. I believe it would be able to host a network with some modifications.

[killerapp]

Can you do those modifications, or am I going to need Dan Heng's boyfriend to help with that? [He's probably going to need both Blade and Varian anyway, to help with the infrastructure, but between the two he'd trust Blade with the battery-thing more than Varian. Blade knows what the internet is.] I can do the coding, but I can't make things that aren't actually computers into computers.

[eiternity]

I doubt it. I believe there are enough people on the app to make this a reality, but I don’t know them personally.

[She doesn’t get out much.]

I was hoping you could help with that.

[killerapp]

[Yuuki just takes a moment to stare in bafflement at a person who knows fewer people than he does and is asking him to reach out to people.

Him.

The POKEGO Crytpid.

What the fuck is the world coming to?]

I know people and I know people who know people. POKEGO is mostly nerds, after all. [Varian, for sure. Blade, like he thought. He's seen some people on the app who clearly know Kaisou, maybe he'll get a hold of them.] I can probably use Cygnus to get a hold of most of them without using Libra. Are we going to need you to power this gnosis thing, or does it just power itself?

[eiternity]

[Sorry, Yuuki. TBO's old cryptid manages to out-hikkokomori you.]

[It's impressive, honestly.]

No, I don't think so. In my past life, I all but discarded the gnosis completely. It works separately from my power. Even should I disappear from the app and people's memories, it would still work.

[killerapp]

Okay. Can you write something about how this this works and what we shouldn't do to it, so we don't end up blowing up half the city again? I'll start getting in touch with people.
