Damn, lost Kirito's signal. Hope that doesn't mean anything. And just when I was gonna look at the engine to figure out how to get him out.

Also, for the life of me, I can't find a box of fireworks. I'm not too worried--Ryuji probably got rid of them on me, but...

[LONG pause]

Why is there an elephant in the Command Center?

For that matter, HOW is there an elephant in the Command Center?

[boostup4beetbuster]

[continued long pause]

...Did you just troll me?

[sumofallreds]

Wait for it...wait for it....

[He's waiting for the fireworks...]

[boostup4beetbuster]

IS THE ELEPHANT DRUNK?!

[juicy_egotist]

I will be setting off the fireworks momentarily!

[boostup4beetbuster]

[fireworks noticed]

WHAT?!

[juicy_egotist]

[Can't hear you, setting off fireworks.]

[boostup4beetbuster]

Oh shit, Kurorin's gonna kill me!

[Capslock off now]

[sumofallreds]

Very nice spread. You put some thought into it.

[tenminutes]

I can't get Kirito or Suguha. I think they're on their own..

[boostup4beetbuster]

Yeah, I know. Just when things were starting to come together.

[tenminutes]

It seems like we've been losing a lot of people lately.

[boostup4beetbuster]

You don't think the universe suddenly just got too boring for the community?

[yes_im_kawaii]

Get it out!

[boostup4beetbuster]

I'm still trying to figure out how it got in, let alone out!

[yes_im_kawaii]

We can chase it out the door! Probably!

[boostup4beetbuster]

Quick, go to the fridge and get some peanut butter and some regular butter!

[elloran]

Does one of your companions have a pet elephant?

[boostup4beetbuster]

No. Much as I hate to admit it, I got out-trolled. By a pirate. Who convinced my gullible Buddyroid to somehow fit an elephant in here.

[elloran]

I hope the elephant was not harmed in the process.

[boostup4beetbuster]

No, and I eventually got it out. Do have a wall and a window to replace, though.

[voice]

[scanningutterly]

...No signal?

I guess that could just be a change in the game.

Re: [voice]

[boostup4beetbuster]

Me and Yuri aren't picking up Suguha's signal either, and she's playing a different game. So either the community's dropped them, or they both fell into the same situation...which is worse to consider

[voice]

[scanningutterly]

[Orlando stops to think for a few moments.] It could be a time thing, too, right? I mean, if someone had tried to contact me during the months I was gone when it was just an hour for me, they probably wouldn't have been able to. ...Well they wouldn't have been able to contact me anyway, but you know what I mean.

[Yeah, you can hear that he's trying to convince himself.]

Re: [voice]

[boostup4beetbuster]

I really hope so, kid. Meantime, I'm not giving up hope on getting Kirito out.
