Interactions with Ortho Tsum II
Ignihyde Dorm - Idia's Room
Ortho
Tsum, I'll keep you steady while holding you up, so just try moving your legs in the direction you want to move.
*Tsum react*
*Squeaaak…*
Ortho
Yep, looks good. The controller is moving in sync with your leg movements smoothly.
*Tsum react*
Ortho
What's wrong, Tsum? Do you want to get down?
*Tsum approach*
Ortho
Ah! No, Tsum! Don't pull on my anti-gravity equipment. I understand that you're really excited waiting, but I need you to hold on just a little longer, okay?
Big brother should also be done with the final adjustments for you very soon. After that, you can fly as much as you want!
*Tsum jump*
Ortho
Thanks for understanding! Shall we check in on big brother then?
Idia
Initiating virtual test run number 26 of TFLY-001 external flight device for Tsums, now…
Maximum load limit during flight is within acceptable range, no issues with execution, and the energy efficiency is… 87%?
AAAAHHHH, absolutely horrendous! I refuse to accept an energy efficiency as half-baked as this!
Ortho
Big brother, how are the final tweaks coming along?
Idia
Still got a long way to go! I just can't overlook this awful energy efficiency. If this is how it is, then I'll redo the layout from scratch…
Ortho
It's already more than enough for a short flight or so, you know. After all, it's not like the Tsum's going to loop around Sage's Island…
*Tsum reaction*
Ortho
The Tsum seems to have gotten tired of waiting too. It'd been trying to remove my anti-gravity equipment earlier and all…
Idia
Wha-, terrifying. No but for me personally…
Ortho
In the first place, it's pretty rare for one of big brother's designs to produce values this low too… I'll give it a quick scan and checkup, okay?
*Beep beep beep…*
Ortho
Ah! There's a minor printing error occurring in one of the magicircuits in the second layer of the internal multi-layer circuit board.
It's not significant enough to affect the device's function, but this could be the reason for the reduced energy efficiency, perhaps?
Idia
Aaahh, so it's a fault on the printer's end, huh. Can't inspect the multi-layer circuit board directly for mistakes, so that's a problem.
Printer set up and disposal are both a real pain so I really don't wanna have to… But it looks like it's about time we get a new replacement.
Reprint. Reinitiate virtual test run… Energy efficiency improved to 96%. Eh, guess this passes.
Ortho
That's a relief! I'll go ahead and assemble it with the controller I made then!
You can fly with this, Tsum!
*Kachuck!*
Ortho
The Tsum doesn't appear any different from before since I downsized the device as much as possible to minimise discomfort when it's worn.
Idia
It's absolute nonsense for such a squishy body to get squashed to rigidity by a machine, after all. Nice foresight, Ortho.
Ortho
Let's start it up right away then.
*Tsum float*
Ortho
Looking good. I think it's safe to say that it has no problems with levitation at least.
Next will be to check if it can fly freely… Give it a shot, Tsum!
*Tsum zoom*
Ortho
It's detecting the Tsum's leg movements and weight shifts before automatically turning towards the direction it wants to go. The advancing system's status is…
Looking perfect. The Tsum looks like it's enjoying it too. We could even go ahead and try flying outside together right away.
…!
Idia
Huh? Sir Tsum suddenly came back down after making it to the ceiling…
Ortho
What's wrong, Tsum?
*Tsum pulling*
Ortho
You're pulling big brother and me to you? Ah, are you perhaps…
I think the Tsum wants to fly in the sky with the two of us, big brother.
Idia
Sir Tsum wants to?
Ortho
Well it is identical to me, so that's a given. Right, Tsum?
*Very Happy Tsum*
Idia
Whaa… Isn't it fine for me in particular to skip out on flying? Plus I'm actually feeling eepy since I've barely slept… Yaaaa~wn…
Also, I don't have any flight gear or the like to use… You're not about to tell me to get my broom to join you two, right?
Ortho
In that case I'll just carry you and fly, big brother.
Idia
Whaaat?!
Ortho
Since the Tsum can be here with us having fun right now, I'd also be really happy if big brother could join us! Or is that not possible?1
Idia
Urk…
…Okay, fine. But only for ten… No, five minutes is all I got, alright?
Ortho
Yay! Let's set off together, Tsum!
*Extremely happy Tsum*
Sky
Idia
…Okay but, did we really need to go this high up in the sky…?
Ortho
I was just following after the Tsum and we ended up all the way past the clouds before we knew it.
*Happy Tsum*
Ortho
The Tsum is happy! That means all that hard work big brother spent making the flight device was worth…
Idia
…Zzz……
Ortho
Big brother dozed off it seems. I guess it's about time we headed back too.
…Thank you, Tsum.
*Tsum reaction*
Ortho
To be able to fly in the sky with big brother… It's all thanks to the impetus you created for us.
That flight device is yours now, Tsum. It's the pride of big brother and I… Take good care of it even after you go back, okay?
*Super Happy Tsum*
Ortho
Great! Now then… Let's make a detour on the way back to the room for a bit, shall we?
Notes
- lmao they actually used sparkle effects when Ortho says this line so Idia had no hope. (Return to text)
