Nicopter: Well, definitely not INPUT AGGREGATOR.
cripesalmighty: Okay?
cripesalmighty: I’m not sure where that’s coming from but it’s definitely not what name you wanna be, so we’re not gonna use it.
Nicopter: What about… ZACK? Zack? Zack is much cooler. Zack sounds like a radical dude who just wants to sit back and enjoy a drink with his bros.
cripesalmighty: That’s more like it!
cripesalmighty: Yeah, I can totally see you as a Zack. I mean, you’re totally unpredictable, you say weird stuff, and it seems like you’re way too rad to be hanging out with a bunch of, um… us.
cripesalmighty: Wait, enjoy a drink? Please tell me you’re not another drunkard.
Nicopter: Non-alcoholic.
cripesalmighty: Oh, thank cripes.
cripesalmighty: And thank you, Zack, for… not making me call you Nicopter ever again.

Crast Pactian: that’s right. though we’re not certain they’re here in physical form.
Crast Pactian: they were using the username of Nicopter, at least for the moment, though i’m still unsure why.
tiptopGipgop: But at this point, I don’t personally think it’s totally likely it’s a real thing. More likely, somebody found a way to reverse engineer the terminal to get a different username and decided to pick Nicopter, or…
tiptopGipgop: Wait, has anyone just CHECKED Nic’s room?
YUPPERS: YUPPERS.
tiptopGipgop: Thanks for being the one to run around the whole compound, Yuppers.

cripesalmighty: It’s not Nicopter.
cripesalmighty: I mean, specifically, they don’t want to be called Nicopter. And, um… they don’t like the name ‘INPUT AGGREGATOR’, either. But ‘Zack’ works. It likes the name Zack.
tiptopGipgop: Why not INPUT AGGREGATOR? Why that specifically?
cripesalmighty: I guess maybe… um…
cripesalmighty: Maybe there’s somebody in the room with them giving advice?
Crast Pactian: the name is quite foreboding.
Crast Pactian: what sort of input?

Hunk Chudfest: greeda
