Slider was... Feeling a lot of things at the moment. Frustration, fear, and a lot of confusion to name a few. Something... Had happened, something bad to him. He thinks. He's not even sure of that. His memory feels like a disk that keeps skipping your favorite part of the song. He remembered seemingly random things. His name, favorite color, what he ate for dinner two weeks ago, but besides that it was pretty blank.

He'd woken up in a chair in a garage to several people yelling at each other, something about programs and deleting the wrong thing? All he knew is he felt incredibly stressed out and wanted away from them. Bolting for the side door he stumbled into the light of the sun and looked out at the landscape he had no memory of.

Realizing the angry Borgs weren't far behind, Slider stumbled forward and kept running until he couldn't hear their shouts anymore, then just for a bit longer. Pausing to try and catch his breath, Slider looked around and realized he was being stared at. Shooting the nearest person an unsure smile and wave he called out. "Hey! Um- any chance I could borrow your phone or-" He didn't even get to finish his sentence as the person hurried off. Ok? Weird. He tried talking to three more people, each rejecting or ignoring him before he finally gave up and plopped on the edge of the street curb looking a tad annoyed. Why were people here so rude? Not like it mattered... Who was he going to call? He couldn't even remember anyone's names let alone a number.

A robotic monitor was floating through the Cybrary to organize the books. He finishes up a cart and sees that Mari was around. Of course, the robot flies on over to greet his friend.

@feathercapped​ asked:

ϟ hack, rory and arky?

Hacker: “Looks like we have the usual suspects in attendance. Now, where’s the walking paper weight?”

Rory: “She’s like a neon colored naked armadillo.”

Hacker had given an entire speech that morning at breakfast about Slider staying out of the way because he had a very evil scheme to do and knew that Slider's goody two shoes tendencies liked to stop those schemes. Thus he was currently on the thick branch of a tree watching poddles move to and fro. His father and his henchmen were.... Somewhere, but Slider found it easier not to get involved, staying in his grey area of not good but not bad.

"Pfff..." Slider laughed at the question before humming in thought with a small smile. "I... Feel like a hundred little hackers could take me down like those Poddle kids Matt and I babysat... So unfortunately I guess I'm getting eaten by a giant duck... Is Kickflip allowed to help?" He chuckled looking a tad concerned at the thought.

As he waiting he closed his eyes and groaned, seeing a group of people start heading his way. This usually meant trouble for him and he was right.

"Ohhhh look who it is! Little Slider all grown up thinking he's all big and mighty!" The leader of the three borg's mocked.

Slider elected to try and ignore them but it didn't seem to work. "Hey he's talking to you! Show some respect!" One of the groupies have him a shove and he landed hard on his knees and hands. People were gathering around and mumbling as the fight broke out.

Wayward Father AU!

Slider lay relaxing against a grassy Hill, eyes have closed as he soaked in the sun on solaria. One eye quickly opened at the sound of someone approaching, but was quickly closed again. With a smile on his face, Slider waved, "Heya Mari! How's it going?" He grinned at the little orange parabo.

"Hi Sly! You just hanging out waiting for Hacker?" She asked plopping down next to him contently.

He gave a nod and hummed yes before giving a stretch and sitting up. As he stretched his hoodie lifted slightly so his lower back was seen, and on it a thick, white scar that disappeared up his back.

Mari gave a small gasped, and without thinking reached out and touched it, making Slider just slightly and whirl around to look at her in confusion.

Mari gave him a sad look and gestured to his back. "Sly... Your back! That huge scar! Is- did Hacker..?" Before she could continue Slider snorted and shook his head adamantly.

He held his hands out, "Woah, Mari! I'm totally okay! I swear! All healed! Just a bad crack in the old cosmetic frame from a run in with this total jerk. Literally shoved me backwards making me hit my back on a rock. But like I said, no big deal." He waved off her concern before giving her a grin.

Mari frowned at his story. He always seemed willing to share about his life but yet somehow was vague at the same time. Giving him a sigh, Mari held out a finger and waggled it at him. "Alright, but if you're hurt and not telling me-"

"Let the other know if you're going somewhere off-site! The reasoning should be clear on why we had to make that rule." Slider snorts, crossing his arms and rolling his eyes good humoredly.
