War Week

[mockmods]

[A week has gone and past, as has the first of your number. The Researcher revealing himself, more or less, by punishing Patches, the Trusty, for pushing an unclear boundary.]

[And yet, routine seems to have returned. The Researcher makes morning and evening announcements as if nothing has happened. Meals are served in the dining hall. The copies of Oregon Trail in the computer lab now have a text-only mode for some reason? Penny has not been seen since Friday, and attempts to access the Security Room have been fruitless.]

[But overall, life in the Facility has remained unchanged. But the atmosphere is getting tenser - sooner or later something is going to break.]

[Sonia scribbles some notes on a blank sheet of paper, rips it out, and slides it across a table.]

The OS they use is called H.P.OS which replaced MoS v.6

This isn't anything I encountered in my life has anyone heard of it?

The computers in the lab are old, but the one in the Master Control Facility has higher computing power despite running on the same OS/span>

Hey, do you guys think we should do some kind of bonding activity? We could all watch a movie together or something.

[On the same piece of paper Sonia passed over, which Veronica passes back:]

H.P. like Lovecraft, maybe? Computer nerds do love their weird references.

No.

[Wait, this is supposed to be a pretense for meeting in the same room again.]

Unless there is nothing else to do.

[Nailed it. She sloppily writes a quick note:]

I can't tell. It could be an obscure reference to the organization he works for
