Hey, you. Can you see us?
Why won't you answer? I'm asking you a question. Yes, you on the other side of the monitor.
Hmph. Your silence only strengthens my hypothesis.
I suppose that, from your perspective, it appears that we are the ones inside the monitor. Heh heh heh, but that's where you're wrong!
For it is you who are inside! Your reality is nothing but lies and shadows. Naturally, that includes you, too.
True reality is on this side of the screen.
Don't believe me? I don't want blame you. Few are those who can handle the truth.
But no matter. I shall speak in simpler terms, easy enough for even you to understand.
This is the Future Gadget Laboratory, located in Akihabara district of Tokyo. We call it simply... the lab. Our purpose is to shatter the System and plunge the world into chaos.

Really? You shouldn't do bad things, Okarin.

Quiet, I'm mad scientist, remember?
From the station, head down Chuo-dori until you reach Suehirocho Station, then take a left onto Kuramaebashi-dori. In the alley before the traffic light, you'll find the run-down Ohiyama building. The lab is on the second floor.
On the first floor is a store of ill repture called the Braun Tube Workshop. You can't miss it.
It deals exclusively in CRT monitors, of all things. Can you imagine? Even in the heart of Akihabara's Electric Town, the demand of CRTs practically nonexistent.
But the proprietor of the Braun Tube Workshop, Tennouji, is also the owner of the building. That's how he can afford to maintain his ridiculously niche hobby shop even as land value continues to rise.
He may seem a rough sort, but he was no match for my charisma. Now the entire second floor is mine for next to nothing. Muhahaha!
I digress. The Future Gadget Laboratory is currently experiencing a severe shortage of manpower. We welcome dedicated scientists from all fields to apply. At present, our researchers are--

Opprinnelig skrevet av Mayuri:

Okarin, Okarin. You've gotta say 'lab mems', not researchers.

Opprinnelig skrevet av Hououin Kyouma:

... Our lab mems -- laboratory members -- are three!
I am the founder of the Future Gadget Lab, Lab Mem Number 001, the insane mad scientist, Hououin Kyouma!

Opprinnelig skrevet av Mayuri:

Okarin' is cuter, though...

Opprinnelig skrevet av Hououin Kyouma:

Next, we have our resident cosplayer and only female member, Lab Mem Number 002, Shiina Mayuri.

Opprinnelig skrevet av Mayuri:

Tutturu♪ Call me Mayushii! I like making costumes more than wearing them.

Opprinnelig skrevet av Hououin Kyouma:

And last, we have our resident super hacka , Lab Mem Number 003, Hashida Itaru.

Opprinnelig skrevet av Itaru:

Stop calling me that! It's super hacker, duh.

Opprinnelig skrevet av Hououin Kyouma:

Here at the Future Gadget Laboratory, we devote ourselves to the art of invention!
For details, see our lab's homepage.
Our top priority, of course, is to develop weapons for the war with the Dark Dominion, but that research has spawned a number of offshoot inventions. In fact, that's all it's spawned.
Our arsenal of Future Gadgets is up to eight, but this is just the beginning. I have a total of 108 inventions to create!

Opprinnelig skrevet av Itaru:

Like in that tennis manga, right? I get it.

Opprinnelig skrevet av Hououin Kyouma:

No! It's number of earthly desires in mortals, you @channel junkie.
And I thought I told you not interrupt me when I'm talking!

Opprinnelig skrevet av Itaru:

Yeah, wouldn't want to interrupt you talking to yourself.

Opprinnelig skrevet av Hououin Kyouma:

I'm not talking to myself. Can't you see? I'm talking to the person behind the monitor.

Opprinnelig skrevet av Mayuri:

Ah, he just grinned!

Opprinnelig skrevet av Hououin Kyouma:

What are you grinning about, damn you!? You don't even exist outside that monitor!

Opprinnelig skrevet av Itaru:

Just say 'don't look at me'.

Opprinnelig skrevet av Mayuri:

I don't think that's gonna work...

Opprinnelig skrevet av Hououin Kyouma:

It appears out attempts to communicate have failed. It's sad to see someone so deeply in denial of reality.

Opprinnelig skrevet av Mayuri:

Maybe they think we're in the game?

Opprinnelig skrevet av Itaru:

I doubt it's even occurred to them.

Opprinnelig skrevet av Mayuri:

But aren't your 2D girlfriends the same way?

Opprinnelig skrevet av Itaru:

Thats different. Those girls are my wives.

Opprinnelig skrevet av Hououin Kyouma:

Nobody cares about your harem.

Opprinnelig skrevet av Itaru:

But Mayushii touched upon a very interesting theme, ya know? What if we're actually just characters in a game? Any way we can know for sure?

Opprinnelig skrevet av Hououin Kyouma:

No.

Opprinnelig skrevet av Itaru:

Come on!

Opprinnelig skrevet av Hououin Kyouma:

Such questions are meaningless. Our time is better spent thinking of ways to destroy the System.

Opprinnelig skrevet av Itaru:

Nice chuunibyou, bro.
