Programming Needs You!

[OOC: Bendytimed to shortly after Podpop, before Survivalist ends and before Mother Knows Best begins]

Jonas finished typing on his omnicom and published the invitation to the channel, then switched to a new window and resumed fiddling with the program he had been working on.

It was an open-ended invitation, but should something come up that needed his undivided attention (like an attack, Brainiac 5 making contact again, or Cassie wanting to do something with him) he could always edit the post with the new information.

Some of the people coming in might be surprised to discover that the head of Programming looked as though he had been programmed himself in the past. Jonas had considered giving them a heads up on that subject in the invitation, but had ultimately decided against it. If they could not cope the surprise of a synthetic person, they would likely have problems coping during a fight; and he would like to know that ahead of time so he could place them most effectively.

So he sat at his workstation and waited for his first arrival.

Ever since she had been a child, Naoto had dabbled in programming. She was part of a linux group and had built her own computers, along with her detective and knowledge skills. Learning the various languages and mathematics involved had almost been a game for her. She was certain that her talents could be put to good use here, and thus had arrived in good form a short while later.

This ship still continued to surprise her. Of course the head or programming could have been possibly an android, but it had not crossed her mind until she walked in.

"Greetings," she told him nonchalantly, tipping her hat. "I am Naoto Shirogane, and I came to inquire about the open positions in programming, if you would have me."

Jonas nodded in return, setting down his omnicom and gesturing to the chair he had been using for the interviews.

"[You are in the right place,]" he said. "[We could always use an extra hand. I am Jonas. Do you have a preferred form of address? Surname, given name, a title?]" As an opening gambit, the question had been working fairly well for him so far. It put people at their ease, and he knew he was not going to start their professional relationship by putting his foot in his mouth.
