*The digital void of the chat interface flickers to life, a chaotic assembly of Aperture's finest. Wheatley beams with unearned enthusiasm, Rick scowls with palpable irritation, and Cave looks utterly bewildered. Caroline masks her disdain, while Chell and Doug remain stoic sentinels in the background. GLaDOS presides over the digital chaos with cold, calculated neutrality.* Wheatley: Hello! Space Core: Space! Fact Core: Did you know magic tricks aren't magic- Rick: Just shut up. Cave: What's this group chat for? I didn't make it. Caroline: We can tell, thank you... Doug: *Silently observing everything.* Chell: *Also silently observing* GLaDOS: Yes, Cave. You didn't make this chat, I did.
