Action | All over town
[It's a wonderful Spring day, the snow is gone, and it is the perfect conditions for Tachikoma to put one of its recent regains through its paces.
Most days Tachikoma runs around town, looking around and seeing the sights, but today is something different. Different as in that most people can't see Tachikoma as it does it.
Tachikoma has engaged its Thermoptic Camouflage and is now practicing its stealth tracking abilities. This means that not only is it practically invisible as it moves around, but it will occasionally pick someone as its target and follow them for awhile, trying to remain undetected.
So if you have a shiver run down your back, or get the feeling there's someone watching you... Well, you might just be paranoid, but it also might be because there is an invisible spider robot following you. What do you do?]
((OOC note: Thermoptic camouflage, as the name suggests, cloaks the user from temperature and optical sensors, whether mundane human or of the technological kind. However, those with magical sensors or enhance smell may be able to sense/see Tachikoma, as well as those with non-technological enhance eyesight might be able to notice the slight distortion of light it causes. And of course, that doesn't make it intangible, if Tachikoma isn't careful, it could bump into someone, or someone bump into it.))
Phone | After Tachikoma has finished the stealth training
Does anybody have some large monitors or displays? Preferably that can handle an IEC 76610-5-203 standard connector? If not, maybe someone can help me make an adapter for the more standard video and audio equipment people have? It would be nice to be able to share everything I've recorded with others without having to drag them to my recharge station or my pod...

Though her ears twitch a little and she stops. Kitty senses say there's something nearby, but because she's a child, they aren't too trustworthy. She'll turn around, but won't see anything...
...BUT WAIT A MINUTE! Her ice cream is melting! She's getting right to fixing that up, but even she can't stop a couple of drops from dripping. Will Tachikoma notice this and not get ice cream on him?)
no subject
...Well now there's some floating splats of ice cream below Chen. Maybe Tachikoma should get that cleaned off.]
no subject
But at least she's not freaking out! Instead, she's just staring at it closely. Staring...staring...now she's going to poke it!)
Every time someone stares, I hear "Jiiiiiiiiii~" in my head...
Meanwhile, Tachikoma is trying the strategy of staying absolutely still as hopefully a way to get out of this mess.]
Tee hee~
A ghost has possessed my ice cream! I ate someone's soul and now they're angry with me!
(A deep breath.)
LADY YUYUKOOOOOOOOO! I ANGERED A SPIRIT AND IT WANTS REVENGE!
Action
Frowning, he starts punching the air behind him. That should fish out any dang Frenchies!]
Action
Of course, with the dimensions of the Tachikoma, if Engineer is aiming for Spy's jaw, he's more likely to miss Tachikoma even when it's in range. Or bouncing off the metal armor. Either or.]
no subject
Jesus Mary Joseph! What in Sam Hill-!?
no subject
Oh, I'm sorry Mr. Engineer! Are you okay? I was practicing being stealthy and didn't think I'd get in range of your swings!
no subject
[He sighs and grips his hand. Great, it seems broken; looks like he'll have to fix it.]
S'alright. I was the one who was jumpy like a jackrabbit. Gotta learn ta stop bein' sucha paranoid fool. Why're ya practising ta be stealthy though?

Re: Action
Okay, who's following me?
Action
C'mon, Makoto... just calm down. [Also trying to clam herself down by talking to herself. That's a thing.]
Action
Who are you talking to?
[...Tachikoma is really out of practice at being stealthy.]

Whoa, whoa! Who just said that!?

Twilight is the one you made those mechanical arms for, right?
[Oh dear, keeping quiet does not seem to be Tachikoma's strong point...]
action
Yes... Have you met Twilight before?
[Looking for you. Strange he doesn't see you but he heard you. Listening, listening before Emmett attempts to move again]
no subject
Still, she just can't shake that feeling, so she starts heading for a more open area. The park!]
no subject
Oooh! Maybe she'll play fetch with her pet and it will see how that works with spiders!]
no subject
But she is keeping a CAREFUL EYE OUT. Best not flatten any grass, Tachikoma, or you might be found out!]
