Low Orbit Ion Cannon Launch!

[veepofchess]

Characters: Lelouch vi Britannia, Dirk Strider, Suzaku Kururugi and Rakuen's computer system
Format: Prose to start, but idk what he's going to set off, so if it does something, tag however
This log is: open
Location: Fortitude, Conquest computer labs, computers in the Mayor's mansion
Summary: Lelouch is brute forcing his way into the computer system, and launching a DDoS attack against Exaclan. He has Suzaku and Lil Seb running software in Conquest and the Mayor's mansion respectively.
Warnings: Breaking the system

All of the conditions were clear. Dirk was in position. Suzaku was ready as well. However, there were a few last touches the software needed, and that was only that he needed it to be able to blow the doors open when it was launched, so to speak.

His fingers flew over the keys. He'd long since gotten access to some of the disappeared people's accounts, and then he was using them to brute force his way into the more integral systems. Beyond the communication structure, into what ought to be the very fabric of this system. He sent Suzaku and Dirk a message with the code to run, and the precise time, within a tenth of a second with which to do so.

And then, he waited. He tapped his fingertip on the edge of the keyboard, beside the enter key. In his hand his PDA counted down.

His opening moves had been made. Now was the midgame.

Dirk did his best to try following the conversation, but he couldn't get far. He did raise an eyebrow when Nanami said his name, though.

"It's rude to talk about people behind their backs," he said simply in stilted Japanese several levels more polite than Nanami would have heard from him when the translator was still in effect.

[veepofchess]

Dirk was fortunate in that his usefulness had increased exponentially in two minutes of conversation prior to Nanami's arrival. So he was not to become the fall guy.

"Ah, Nanami, perhaps your illness has affected your mind more than you thought. I just told you who was responsible. Perhaps you should lie back down and I'll keep you up to speed on what is going on, Nanami-senpai." Out of anyone else, the look on his face would be one of sincere concern, but on him, it was kind of patronizing.

Even Dirk could speak Japanese, Suzaku gritted his teeth as the headache got worse, not understanding a word that was said. "What... are you saying?"

aaand she's gone

[effortless]

That was a shut-down if ever she heard one. Ah well.

"How thoughful of you, Lelouch-kun." She smiled, turning away from Dirk again. Her whim to see whether Lelouch would allow her to blame someone else had faded, along with her stamina. And besides, she'd heard what she needed already. There was just enough time before her next collapse to put her plan into action. "I think I might do that, after I stop in to the other campus. Good day, boys."

Re: aaand she's gone

He let her leave, and turned back to the other two. "I took responsibility for this," he summarized. "Despite her eagerness to find more people to blame. For now, let's do what's expected of us as Prefects." He looked over to Suzaku. "Check on Nunally first."

[fracturedsoul]

"Guess I'll be going around and checking up on everyone. Either of you see a mechanical rabbit, tell it to come find me," Dirk said.

[swordofzero]

Suzaku frowned but nodded, "I will." At least Nunnally spoke Britannian, he nodded at Dirk as well wondering how Dirk had come to own, never mind lose a mechanical rabbit.
