Attention!

I'm looking for hackers, aliens or people from the future with crazy technology, or someone who knows how to program something into a previously existing game like a really cool weapon that can kick ass even though it's basically a cheat.

This is to save someone, not because I want to play a video game, promise.

I need someone who's willing to occasionally off me too in order to log me out who promises not to freak out if I go brain-dead for a while.

[ locked to Suguha & Kirito ]
Any luck getting a NerveGear set?

I can serve the latter if not the former, but could you provide a little more information?

[tenminutes]

Have you met Kirito on here? He's stuck inside of a video game that kills anyone who dies inside of the game until someone beats it. I'm already dead, so I want to try to go in or at least have someone just try to see if they can't fix it so the log out button reappears, but they'd have to try it on me first so we don't kill anyone.

[ Of course, she has no idea if anything at all will work or if this is just going to be a giant, literal headache with her brain getting fried every time she has to log in or out. ]

[fortheworld]

...We haven't met, no, though it certainly sounds quite the situation. Are you sure you can log in?

[tenminutes]

No. We're still trying to get ahold of something called NerveGear. It's a headset that uses brainwaves to literally place you inside the world of the game, from what I understand. They probably recalled all of them once a bunch of people got stuck, so getting one's probably pretty tough.

[fortheworld]

They'd be a warehouse, wouldn't they? Tracking a set down should be simple. I'm afraid I cannot contribute on the computational side, but I can certainly assist as best I can outside of wielding magic.

[tenminutes]

I don't know. I haven't exactly set foot in their world yet, I'm waiting to hear back from them about the headset. I can trust you to kill me whenever I send you a message to right?

[fortheworld]

...Admittedly, the concept disturbs me, but yes.

[tenminutes]

Do I need to do it to prove it I'll come back first?

[fortheworld]

Unless this is some absurdly circuitous attempt at suicide; no, I take you at your word. Have no fear.

[tenminutes]

Even if I were still alive, I'd never do that.

[fortheworld]

To be honest I'd be surprised to find anyone would. But yes, I can help.

[tenminutes]

Thanks. I'll let you know as soon as I get what I need.
