By now you know I <3 GLaDOS from Portal and Portal 2. Ask me anything - within reason - and the answers will return as either pictures or text or both.

So micro snores too?

Ohhh yes she does.

It’s the cutest sound I’ve ever heard.

G, how is it living with a smaller version of yourself?

Exasperating.

Annoying.

And full of lies.

Absolutely delightful.

At least she’s as cute as a button.

Has microDOS calmed down yet?

Sort of.

G kinda hauled her off with the USB cord and I haven’t seen her since.

Let me check the freezer…

Duct-taped shut. And I hear little snores coming from it.

Okaaay.

That’s where micro is.

*plops back down*

What about when microDOS gets back to her normal size? Won't you need the LOLcat filter again then?

Yes, but we can take it down for the moment.

Besides, relations might change by the time we have her back to her normal size. I don’t know yet.

Now that microDOS is living with you, that LOLcat filter doesn't really work anymore...

Yeah. You make a good point there.

Hey, Doc, if you’re somehow reading this:

You can probably shut that LOLcat filter off when you get a chance?

I’m sure you’re like, super-busy right now with all that’s going on, and I’m sorry to add more to your list but…yeah.

It’s not super high priority but.

Wait.

If he’s reading from Aperture he’s reading it with the LOLcat filter isn’t he?

Damn.

How do you even move your USB cord? Most USB cords don't move actively like that.

It acts like the cables with her claws at the end of them - prehensile and pretty flexible. I’m not even sure HOW they found a USB cord that could do that, but there you go.

She’s slapped me with it a few times in the past. So…it’s got some strength to it.

How does G grip and pull things (like bells)?

Like this. I pull out the cord, and wrap it around an item, and pull. Or I simply connect to said item with one of my internal magnets, and pull or push as needed.

This is so simple I’m amazed anons are even remotely clueless about it.

8... feet? How does that even work? Where does it go when she's not using it!?

Spooled up within the chassis, amongst the wires in the rear component.

Is microDOS reading your blog (or your inbox, for that matter)?

I just caught her trying to archive trawl using the keyboard and the mouse. It’s a little hard to navigate the computer when she has no USB cord, and is almost too small to use a mouse.

It’s rather adorable to watch.

If she weren’t fuming about one thing or another Cheryl’s said…

Sorry to say, little one, it’s not your problem.

And you can’t fire her if she’s the one willing enough to take care of you while you’re like this. But of course you knew that.

I should know. I’ve been there.

Oh, don’t snap at me like that! I’ve been small for long enough to get used to the benefits.

Yes, there ARE benefits. Benefits your clearly malfunctioning mind can’t comprehend.

It’d do you some good to calm down, and think for a while. You should try camping out in the freezer. It works wonders for an overheating central processor.

Oh that’s enough. I’m not going to tolerate remarks like that.

If you do not stop that nonsense this instant, I will put you in the freezer myself and TAPE the door shut.

Now stop.

Ugh.

Had to slap her off the table. She’s an angry little thing right now. Like a tiny kitten who thinks she can intimidate a tiger.

Hmph.

What if microDOS turns aroound in a hiding spot to pull the string in behind her?

We’ll deal with that when we get to it. There’s other options, like G’s USB cord, which has about eight feet of length to it - it was another feature Rattmann installed on her when she first came in. And the little magnets made sense, so I ordered a bunch of those.

Also found some Mouse Cubes or whatever they’re called off a neighbor, so I’ve got ‘em set up as traps in really weird obscure spots. If she tries to hide and the yarn doesn’t help, we’ll be able to check those.

That bell and string sounds adorable. Picture (for Cuteness Testing purposes, maybe), please?

Yeah, soon. Once things calm down a bit, I’ll take a few.

((On the list. I’ve GOT to draw micro like this. I’ve GOT to. :D))

How's that ball and string working out?

Quite well, actually.

*hears ringing under her feet, ducks down*

*comes back up, holding the bell with microDOS dangling off the yarn strand, giving her a sour look*
