Isaac

"I don't need to see clearly, to know what is happening."

0 · 103 views · located in The Underground hellhole.

a character in “We weren't alone.”, originally authored by spartan322, as played by RolePlayGateway

Description

Gender: Male
Age: 318 (18)
Height: 1.7 meters
Hair color: Dark brown
Eye color: Left one brown, right one yellow

Due to an accident concerning acidic chemicals, Isaac almost lost his right eye. However, thanks to his Life Assistance Android, he managed to conserve the eye, but it still was damaged. The iris of the right eye turned yellow, and from then on, he has lost a lot of visibility with that eye. He has to use water drop with a saline solution every day in order to keep the eye from hurting, and to keep what little visibility is left in it.
Isaac is somewhat skinny and weak. He is not the kind of person you would ask to help you life something. However, he is somewhat agile and fast.

Personality

Likes:
-Having something to do
-Fixing things
-Discovering new things

Dislikes:
-Being bored
-Having to explain what happened to his eye
-Acidic chemicals
-Cryosleep

Although normally calm, Isaac looses his cool after long periods without taking his saline drops. This is due to the fact that his eye starts hurting. This can vary depending on how much his eye hurts, which can be from a small annoyance to a completely painful burning sensation.
He enjoys talking about almost anything, however, he might get distracted or loose interest if it is about something he considers boring. He gets easily distracted.

History

Isaac spends most of his time repairing things. He is well aware that there is no need to do that, since there is enough equipment to replace anything that is broken, but he enjoys doing it anyways. He also believes that repairing an object is better since you can fix any mistake made on the object itself when it was produced. He is often asked by some people to fix something for them, although its not many people, they still come back to him because he can do an excellent job.
He is almost all the time by himself, and has only the company of his Life Assistance Android. This is so because it seems other people find his right eye "unnatural" and are disgusted by its sickly yellow color. This is not always true, but most of the time people prefer to stay away from him just because of his eye. This doesn't bother him that much, being used to it, but he would like to have someone to talk to rather than his Android.

So begins...

The sound of the ball bouncing on the floor to the wall, and back, filled the entire room. This would normally bring people on the vicinity to come and complain about the noise. However, it seemed that the place had been abandoned. Almost everyone was in cryosleep. Either by choice or because of crimes committed, but either way, everyone was asleep in one of the pods.
Everyone, except Isaac.
There was, supposedly, a shortage of food. Nothing serious, just the birth rate of the animals in the Garden was now slightly lower than the death rate. As soon as this information was released, lots of people rushed into cryosleep pods, and would only be waked when the shortage was over. The people who didn't do this, where convinced by their androids to take a few years of sleep, just in case.
This wasn't the case for literally everyone, but the area in which Isaac lived was left abandoned, leaving him alone with his android.
"I'm bored." Said Isaac, to no one in particular, as he bounced the ball once more.
"You are always bored." Answered his android Artemis. Who was getting particularly annoyed of Isaac complaining.
"Yeah, because there is nothing to do." Replied Isaac with little interest. He was starting to find the movement of the ball mesmerizing.
"Well go and DO something! Don't you have anything to fix?" Artemis was on the verge of strangling Isaac. He always wondered why he always got the annoying humans.
"No, because everyone is so scared of the so called "food shortage" that they decided to take a nap." He thought for a moment, and then asked "Why do you have a female name? Even though you are supposed to resemble a male human?"
"For the last time! Artemis can be used both for female and male! I have explained this countless times! Why do you keep asking?" Artemis was now considering if killing Isaac was worth the punishment. It probably was, he decided, but, of course, did nothing.
"Because I'm bored." Isaac stopped bouncing the ball, and started to blink his right eye repeatedly. It was starting to hurt again. "Hey, Art. Will you pass me my drops?"
"You have legs of your own." Replied Artemis.
"Yes, but I would be oh so thankful, if you passed them to me." Said Isaac.
"No you wouldn't"
"You are right!" Isaac and stood up to get his drops. "I thought you were supposed to make my life easier."
"That's the problem, you thought. You shouldn't try to do things you are not capable of." Replied Artemis, not entirely joking. "And you are wrong, I am here to make sure you don't do anything stupid and endanger yourself, or other people for that matter. I am not your baby sitter."
"Same thing." Isaac looked at his eye on the mirror. The iris was yellow, like always. However, his eye has been bloodshot lately, and it has started to hurt more often. He dropped a couple of drops into his eye. The effect, thankfully, was almost immediate. Driving the pain away, and reviving what was left of his tear ducts.
"How does my eye look?" Isaac asked Artemis.
"Wonderful, you don't look ugly anymore."
"You are being sarcastic." Said Isaac, who obviously knew the answer.
"Absolutely. You should get a medal."
"How far did I activate your sarcasm level?" Isaac was starting to regret activation the sarcasm option into his android.
"It is maxed out." Artemis smiled at Isaac.
"Oh great."

Isaac kept bouncing the ball, distracted, thinking what to do.
"You know." Started Artemis. "You could continue trying to fix that computer of yours." As long as it kept him from complaining, anything was a good thing for him to do.
"Because the motherboard is completely fried! And a computer without a motherboard, is as useful as a rock. Actually, the rock can be more useful." Isaac looked a Artemis. "How come you don't know that? I thought you were the all knowing Android."
"I never said I was anything of the sorts. I just wasn't aware what was the problem you encountered with the computer." Replied Artemis indignant.
"You are never aware of anything". The ball bounced at a wrong angle, and came back hitting Isaac on the head.
"Ouch." He complained, rubbing his head where the ball had hit.
"Smooth" Artemis laughed.
"Shut up." Replied Isaac annoyed.
"You see. This is what makes me assume that your level of intelligence is lower than the standard."
"Making a mistake doesn't mean anything related to my level of intelligence." Isaac stood up, and headed for the front of his "shop" as he liked to call it. In there, there was a small desk separating the shop from the outside. That was were he attended his clients, who came to him for repairs.
"Why do you have this desk here?"
"Because it looks professional." Isaac looked for his second computer. However, this one had a special use.
"It looks dumb." Sadly, Artemis couldn't comprehend how to run a business. You had to look profesional.
"Ah! Here it is." Isaac took out a small 13 inch laptop. He opened it to reveal a black screen filled with green numbers, and a bunch of words here and there. However, this was what Isaac used it for. I showed all the information there was to show. The pressure of the zone, the amount of electricity used, the deaths of both people and animals, as well as the birth. He also had readings of every cryosleep pod that existed, as well as the ones that were been built. Every reading was at his hands.
Artemis peeked over Isaac's shoulder. "Anything new?"
"Not really. There are already 5 baby chickens, and more are being born. The death rate of animals is getting lower, which is no surprise, since everyone is sleeping." Isaac checked the pods readings. "It seems that all pods are stable. No one has gotten out, no wait! Someone just got out of one not long ago."
"How do you know?"
"Well, the pod isn't pressurized any more, it is also not frozen anymore. Ah and also. It says deactivated NEXT TO THE POD NUMBER!" Isaac pointed at the pod number. "You are an absolute genius" He said with all the sarcasm he could.
"Shut up!" Artemis didn't like to be seen as an ignorant.
"It seems the person has been there for a while. It is pod number 19. Not someone who got there from fear of the "shortage". Must have committed a small crime."
"How do you know its not a big crime?"
"Because there hasn't passed 500 years yet."
"Oh yeah." Artemis got mad at himself for giving fuel to Isaac for future insults. "And who is this person?"
"How am I supposed to know? I can only see the state of the pods, not who is inside of them."
"Do you think he'll come to get something fixed?" Artemis let the question out before he analyzed how stupid it was.
"The person must have been asleep for some years, I don't think he'll need anything fixed." Isaac turned around and looked at his Android. "Is there something wrong with you? Here, let me take a look."
"Woah! Go away, don't touch me!"

Isaac turned around, and saw the two "visitors".
"Eh, no. It's nothing." He said, looking at them both. Well, at least trying, since his right eye was as good as useless. He closed it so he could concentrate using his left eye. They were both girls. One of them was an android, he was sure, mostly because of the authority she had used on her voice. The other one, looked like she had been rudely awaken, which mean that she had recently been woken from cryosleep. Most probably from the pod he had noticed earlier. Either way, they were here for something, and he hoped it was to get something fixed.
"So, do you need anything fixed?" He asked.
"Please, give him something to do. He is driving me insane." Said Artemis, then he noticed AALIS. "Oh, its you!"
"Oh, so you know each other?" Isaac asked surprise. "You never told me you knew other people." He placed his hands on were his heart was, faking sadness. "I thought I was your only friend. You just broke my heart."
"Shut up! You are making things worse."
"Every time you open your mouth, things get worse." Isaac was now getting annoyed at Artemis tone.
"I will SLAP you, if you don't shut up!"
