WHY?
This is scary.
Robb wakes and just lays in bed for a while. He checks his phone after a bit and sees it is after 11. A text from mom that no one will be home till after 3 so him and Angel will have to get their own lunch. Not really that late for Oregon time but almost lunch here so Robb knows he is going to have to work to change his sleep pattern if he is going to be up in the mornings. Will talk with his mom about it as he wants to keep this schedule for now but will respect his mom's desire if she wants him to be on a family schedule.
Robb figures that he needs to do some shopping today. Compare prices on a decent mic and camera. Check and make sure if he needs to get anything else for his pc. His dad's offer for a new pc and no budget was a surprise but Robb wasn't going to say no. It was a graduation, birthday and homecoming gift that seemed great but the budget was the surprise. Robb doesn't know much about reality but guess bonuses must be surprisingly good.
Robb gets out of bed and does the basics. Bathroom and food plus get what he needs from the van. Mom left note on fridge that there were a couple of egg patties and some bacon from breakfasts. That makes him a couple of sandwiches. He sees his mom got his dirty clothes that were not in tubs and the comforters that Robb had used for bedding.
Robb opens and removes the weights from each one. Mr. Williams was happy to clear those out of the garage and they both agreed that probably easiest solution to not have Robb deal with the tubs bouncing all over. Robb also unties the delicates tub from the seat. Not a lot in it but the two important things are his tablet and laptop though the laptop not really needed unless he starts school.
Robb moves the tubs to his room. He takes the rest of his dirty clothes to the laundry room after he explores the house to find it. Robb does get a load started and goes back to his room to put clothes away, charge electronics, and then combine tubs to work on later. It all takes him a couple of hours from time he got up. Others should be home soon. Robb hasn't heard from Angel so will leave her be.
Thinking about Angel reminds him about Quest Master. He goes and locks his door before sitting down and opening it up.
*Unlock Possible* Achievements able to be unlocked at 1 XP or unlocked at Lvl 5 for full XP.
Secret Achievement earned by a LQ.
Robb clears the notification and checks things. He sees that both quests he has given were achieved. He is curious on what secret achievement was achieved since he doesn't see Life Questers achievements. He wonders if there is a perk for that. Under his profile page is a tab for Achievements. There is a lock there and clicks it. A message to unlock pops up but Robb clicks no.
Robb then goes to the Perk Store. He makes sure not to be touching his mouse and page downs a few dozen times before stopping. Next thing to try for Robb is to try Control Find to see if can find what he wants quickly. Box pops up is see about perks for Mona since she has enough points. Perk store search shows him a few options.
Perk Store for LQs 1 PP - Unlocks store for Life Questers to spend perk points (most QM Perk Store perks apply)
Perk Store Confirmation 1 PP - Perk Store requires confirmation for purchase
Perk Store Perk Requirements 1 PP - Click on Perk (in store) for required perk list or Perk (owned) for perks that require the perk
Perk Store Wishlist 1 PP - Right click Perk in store to Wishlist (requires Perk Store Confirmation)
Robb saw that the search caused another section to load and hit button again which just went down 2 rows.
Perk Store Search Bar 2 PP- Adds a search bar (Costs +1 PP to apply to LQ Perk Store and must be added at time of purchase)
Robb feels that is enough as the search bar is nice but the confirmation is most important for the moment. Probably best to wait for search bar as well and unlock for the store for Demon. Perk Store Confirmation is put into the Control Find box to highlight it. Robb is very careful to make sure cursor is in the middle of the box before clicking. Instant buy happens. Robb feels assured in knowing that this program wants more thoughtful use so without being careful then probably can cause chaos.
Robb goes to his profile so he can click on the perk and see if it shows anything more than the search bar.
Control Mode
Level: 2
XP: 0/6
Class: LOCKED
Perks: Perk Store Confirmation
Perk Points: 2
Robb is clicks on the perk about the time he registers that it says his level is 2. He sees the search bar and a confirmation for classes. There appears to be more but blanks boxes then maybe have to buy the ones presented or just blank till high enough level. Robb just doesn't know but more interested in level so goes to the home page. Robb knows the past 12 hours is all it shows but maybe that upgrades . He will see where the XP came from though.
- 1 XP Quest Complete (Secret Achievement)
- 1 XP Quest Complete (First Quest)
- 1 XP Quest Complete
- 1 XP Quest Complete
- 1 XP New LQ
Robb thinks about it and realizes that he has been ignoring too many things and that doesn't bother him. That is not normal and actually makes him think harder about it. Just looking at that list makes him actual recall that it didn't just use LQ before. The question is why and Robb makes people upset with how much he uses that question.
Why is it changing? The program adjusts to the user through whatever power makes it work?
Why not more worried about the whole thing? Is the program able to influence thoughts?
Why is this even a thing? Is that even able to be known?
Why? The program makes for a lot of questions.
WHY?
This is scary.
Robb types this out quickly on on a note. He thinks about it and he knows his curiosity is dangerous at times and understands that he might not find the answers. Robb does believe the program is having an influence though not sure how much. Since the program can not be removed then the biggest question is not why but what if concludes Robb. Robb still has the why questions but it seems it is better that he actually participates. Robb would rather follow the trail over not having a choice over how to get to the end. The only thing that he knows for sure is the program does seem to know what the users are doing whether it is him or the people he has chosen.
Not feeling comfortable but accepting that it seems more dangerous to ignore the program has Robb try to move forward. He goes and buy the LQ perk store then goes to see if can give the girls more quests. Demon and Angel both are not off cooldown yet. Robb sets a reminder on his phone for a couple of hours to see if 12 hours from when he issued them. He doesn't want to search at the moment but needs to see if there is a perk for seeing quest cooldowns.
Robb goes and puts his clothes in the dryer. He then goes to round up a lunch while waiting to see who gets home first.
I am writing on the site so I take a chapter and work on it. I feel like I am doing a horrible job like this chapter. Maybe I will redo it at some point but I feel it gives information that I want to give. I have idea for where I want to go and some points on the path that I want but all the filler to reach the end is going to be when the next block thought happens. Just want to say that I will be working on it but some chapters are harder to finish but hope I can figure a way to at least have short chapters regularly.
Did that really happen?
