IC Inbox for the Wake

Greetings. You've reached Clu's comm. I'm not available to answer at the moment so please leave a message in the inbox, and I'll get back to you. Thanks.

Clu! Are you dreadfully busy?!

Not very, no. What did you need?

It isn't what I need, it is what I want. And what I want, is to preform a bit of a mechanical experiment.

Oh? What sort of experiment?

Oh, optical. A bit of maneuvering. And perhaps a bit of aviation.

[There's a brief pause as Clu puts that together with what he already knows about Four.]

Ah... so you're looking to try making something a bit more mobile than your dandelions then?

Exactly! Unfortunately I am not my Third incarnation so I will need help in making sure these actually do as I want them to do.

Alright, I'm willing to give it a try. Did you have a specific design in mind? If this was in the system, I'd suggest making them look like bits, but given that there's only one bit in Nautilus, that wouldn't work nearly so well as camouflage here.

HA! Specifics? Well I want it to fly and to work as a camera. Beyond that, I've not really put in the time to think. We can figure it out as we go.

Fair enough.

Would they only be recording things from a long range, or would they need to be able to get closer to their objective and get more detailed images? And are we looking for them to capture still images, full video, or potentially both?

I think mobility is first, once that is done we can range the cameras. Mix up sensors as well. Such as infrared or heat.

Ah! Both sorts! Especially if something intetest8ng comes along that would need photographing.

Good idea. I can try to get them to scan for abnormal energy spikes too. And I wonder if it's possible to incorporate Angelii 'Sight' into a camera? Might be worth looking into, if we could.

Tight. Then it needs to be small, maneuverable, and relatively quiet. Since I assume we are going for a certain amount of stealth, like with the dandelions.

Perhaps not directly, but there may be a way to replicate it to a degree. At any rate I agree, it is something worth looking into.

Covert and quick, exactly! Excellent. Now then, it may be better to work from both ends in, you understand?

You mean work on both form and function at the same time? Or you work on one aspect and I work on another, and then we work on combining them?

Oh that is an excellent idea. Let's do that!

[He means the latter but, well!]

Work on form and function together? Alright.

Any ideas as to what you wanted them to look like?
They are your idea, after all, and we've already ruled out bits as a possibility.

The look will come as they are made. Depending on what is needed or required and if the colours match!

Well we already know some of what's needed; they need to be small, maneuverable, and relatively quiet in flight. Maybe something that looks like small birds?

I'd suggest butterflies, but that seems to be already taken, and from what I've seen, would look out of place in winter anyway.

That is brilliant!

Ha, well I have one but that is a far more personal nature. But do you mean those fascinating blackish, violet ones?

Thanks. But you can call it brilliant when we figure out how to actually make them work.

And yes, those are the ones I meant. Though come to think of it...

[He paused to make sure the line is secured.]

Come to think of it, if we could manage to make a few that looked like those butterflies we might be able to use them to help find Papillion. After all, he'd never suspect that one of his own akuma butterflies was another sort of bug, would he?

Hmph, no, no, I wish to do so now.

[Oh? Now why would there need to be security??]

It shouldn't be difficult. Mimicking things and energies. The only problem would lie within the trace of bending. But I'm told that wears off in time, so.

Heh, suit yourself then. If they work, I guess that'll just make them twice as brilliant, hmm?

[And the security is to make certain that no butterfly wielding baddies see this and spoil the surprise.]

It does.
And only Angelii can see Bending traces anyway.
Course, if we did create some, we would have to let Ladybug and Chat know before we sent them out,
just so they know they're Trojan Horses.

I do believe you are getting the idea, my friend!

You deal with Chat, I can not stand those horrible puns! I will not mind speaking with the little crumb. Oh, but it would need to be when they are ah in costume.

I can do that;
I don't mind the puns.

And yeah, I have a fairly good idea who they might be, but keeping their secret is important to them, and I can respect that.

[Being a good hacker was as much about knowing when to not go digging for information as when to do so.]

I wonder if speaking to his non superhero face would end the puns. Huh.

Silly but understandable.
