Computer Sprite on a Computer

[l33t-mouse.livejournal.com]

Mouse is seated at a table near the Observation Window, but she's not looking at it.  Instead, she has her portable workstation in front of her, and she's staring at the screen, periodically hitting keys, sometimes nodding curtly, sometimes shaking her head.  She's working on a new project.

Back in Mainframe, the binomes on staff at the Principal Office seem to regard her as an auxilliary Command.com, and while she initially found this flattering, it got old fast, because it meant she kept getting interrupted.  She established her quarters as a do-not-disturb zone a while ago, which means she can't even be Vidwindowed in there.  But in her quarters she could still be interrupted by Ray - and while she's not so averse to that it still means she won't get any work done.

She figures that at least if she gets interrupted here, it won't be by someone wanting her to do busywork, and she'll have more control over the situation.  So here she is, hacking away, a cup of java and a plate with a couple of torii - sprite donuts - at her elbow.

Go ahead and bother, if you like.  She might want to talk about her project.
