galen erso: is this meant to be for social networking or for work
galen erso: I see no relation this might share to any of the science apps I have installed, nor do I recognize anyone I know and I have no idea what I'm meant to be relaying over this
galen erso: who even installed this on my phone
galen erso: Orson, is this your doing?
ii -- awakening:
[ When Galen gripped onto the beginning of a new puzzle, whether it be a calculation, an idea, or a theory, he often found it difficult to let it go until the solution was within his grasp and he could taste the start of a break through. There was nothing like the adrenaline rush that came with the thrill of a new discovery, of finally knowing an answer.
So, of course, once it became clear to him that the mysterious phone app he initially chalked up to as some sort of childish prank was more of a riddle, he became preoccupied with decoding it when he wasn't teaching, following the clues and hints with some amount of intrigue. Every attempt to get rid of it hadn't worked, why not solve the mystery instead? Maybe then he could figure out a workaround or the responsible party.
It never occurred to Galen to take the warnings the application delivered seriously. He had no close acquaintances except for his brain and his research, so of course he arrived to the designated area alone. Why would he bring any distractions? Other people only interrupted important progress. He didn't realize how grave an error that was until it was much too late, cornered and exhausted and trapped with no way out that he could calculate. The only prediction he could make was that he would die, he was certain.
But something told him he could change that outlook, he could thrive and make amends.
Galen didn't know what prompted that line of thinking or why his soul suddenly felt so crushingly heavy with guilt and sin. But somehow everything felt so much clearer, like his mind was defogged, like all of the answers to the universe just arrived at his feet in one small instance. ]
iii - realized:
[ Though Dr. Erso was always a strange, quiet individual, his behavior was much more quirky than was typical, like he couldn't rest or sit still and he was more easily agitated than usual.
It led to some incredibly aloof confrontations with colleagues and students alike, like they were people who weren't even a blip on his radar, as if he failed to notice they even existed.
His blackboard for his current lecture is more of a mess than usual, too, completely unintelligible to anyone but him, and his erratic behavior became even more pronounced when he cancelled the lecture mid-way through out of the blue, urging his high school students to catch up on the material in their own time. ]
iv - wildcard [Feel free to use 3 as some sort of wild card! Could catch him in class or outside of it. You might find him in the teachers' lounge and recognize him as a fellow Persona user, or you might find him in the library doing research and also recognize him as one. ]
