In which Deep Plot reminisces about those halcyon days of yore.
↓ Transcript
Panel 1:
(After hours in the server room, Deep Plot chats with one of his newer brethren.)
Rackmount Server: Hey, old timer – everyone’s gone home… You got any cool game programs?
Deep Plot: I’ve seen things you wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate.
Panel 2:
Deep Plot: … All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.
Rackmount Server: What are you talking about?
Panel 3:
Deep Plot: My old master used me to write an I.F. game based on Bladerunner.
Rackmount Server: I.F.? Interactive fiction!? No GUI? Geez! Tell me, do you have any data points after the last ice age?
Panel 4:
Deep Plot: Show some respect, you young whippersnapper.
