Alpha Complex Test Drive Meme

Alpha Complex opened Sunday, July 31st. Please feel free to take a Test Drive to see if the environment would suit your character! All potential players are welcome.

It may be your first day in Alpha Complex or your hundredth, either way, you are in serious trouble.

In a bid to win sympathy and new recruits, the Frankenstein Destroyers - a secret society within Alpha who sees all bots as enemies, has uploaded a virus that is affecting all bots within the complex.

For the next twenty four hours, every bot you see will be the enemy. Your assigned Personal Digital Companion(PDC), a personal communication device, has turned on you and is intentionally misfiring your texts, phone calls and videos. The Bouncy Bubble Beverage machine in the cafeteria is shooting out bottles at passers by at high speeds. The high tech vacuum cleaner used to vacuum your clearance level's common room is attempting to suck up everything in sight. Elevators are trying to coerce people to climb out, so they can behead them. That adorable Petbot you purchased last week is trying to tear your throat out. That Guardbot from the Armed Services Sector is attempting to take out citizens, one by one. Autocars are driving themselves, right onto sidewalks and through windows...

Will you fight for your right to exist or hole up somewhere safe until the chaos passes?

Do not fear, citizen! The Computer and it's high advisors are working to restore order.

In the meantime, be safe and beware of bots and traitors!

Caitlin wants to protest. He may not have been the most credible source, but it's hard to wrap her mind around the idea that Jay would lie about Barry's death. If anything, she would think he'd lie to take credit for it. But he.. well, he wasn't kind or gentle about it, breaking the news. He took her up to Barry's lab after telling her, but that could have also just as easily been about keeping her out of sight of his minions.

She isn't sure what to believe anymore.

Her steps are more sure as he leads her down the corridor, and she seems less likely to fall over. "Okay," she replies, her voice hushed. They can't be caught if no one else can hear them, right? It seems logical enough. "Him... losing his speed, that was Zoom? Jay." Her voice cracks over saying that name.

"I just need to be sure I'm remembering things right."

He leads Caitlin to the room he shares with Blue and pushes the door open before leading her inside and guiding her to sit down on his bed. Then, he turns back to ensure that the door is closed behind them.

Returning to her, Cisco sits beside her on the bed. He looks as concerned as he feels. "...no. No that's because if this place. Not Zoom. …Hunter," he reminds her in a gentle voice before realizing she might not be there yet. Everything happens so fast, ironically, at home that he can't always remember the details of his own timeline...which, now that he thinks about it, would make a potentially interesting premise for a comic book or something. ...which is neither here nor there, he realizes. Focus, Cisco. "His real name is Hunter. Not Jay," Cisco clarifies.

"Zoom did take his speed, that's happened, but he got it back. This place took it again."

"No, I know that," Caitlin says, trying to avoid the memory of that conversation from coming up. She twists her hands nervously in her lap. Putting together the pieces of all of this is hard. It feels all jumbled in her mind, confused and hopelessly knotted. Sh takes a breath, lets it out slowly, willing herself to calmness.

"I don't remember Barry getting it back. If he did, I wasn't there." What else might have happened without her there? It's a relief to hear that he'd done it back home. That he — that they — had all been okay. There's the tiniest irrational pang at that thought. The world went on without her. They went on without her. But it's what they should do, what she would do in their place.

"If he's gotten it back once already, why don't we just do what you did then? You know it worked; it shouldn't be any less effective here."
