A couple options popped out to Lizzie. First off was the "Confidence" Meter. It was set down about 78%, and hovering the cursor over it she found that it gave her a quick describing paragraph:
"Eric is slightly unconfident since he is a little hefty, and though he's tall, most of his weight is just fat, though he is by no means heavily unattractive, he has less faith in him self then he should. His lack of confidence reduces his factor of female attraction (See the Appeal Meter for details)."
Lizzie had always noticed that Eric didn't have much confidence, and was always very defensive if Lizzie commented on his weight or figure in any real way. Eric was actually a pretty nice brother, and their main conflict (Use of the computer) is solved now with the arrival of this new one, so she figured she could afford to do him some favors. She slid the meter up to 90%, and then attended to the other meter that grabbed her interest. The "Relationships" Tab. Clicking on this a massive list of pictures of other people came up. Labelled with or without names. Each contained a name in Yellow, and then a Name in grey and in brackets beside it. The Yellow name, as far as she could guess, was what Eric THOUGHT the person's name was. She saw several mistakes, but saw that he at least got her name right (Elizabeth Deidre Cameron). She selected that relationship and several meters, as well as a descriptive paragraph appeared. The meters were Physical, Social, Respect, Fear and Gratitude. She noticed (Thankfully) that physical was practically nonexistant, Social (Also labelled the "Friendship" meter) was sitting in a light green color around a rating of 7.8. Respect was around 8.7 (Which surprised Lizzie slightly) and she decided to investigate:
"Eric has a great deal of respect for Elizabeth (who shall from now on shall be referred to her common name of Lizzie). He respects her intelligence, her committment, and her talents. He also respects her helpfulness around the house, and that she manages to keep the peace between them."
Lizzie smiled slightly at this, and understood precisely why he respected her committment, though she never really figured he noticed (She took over his paper route at age 10 and has maintained and even expanded it since) and as for her talents Lizzie can play Piano, and takes Dance classes, which she is quite proud of.
Moving on she found the Fear bar to be around a 1.3, and didn't care to investigate. And Gratitude had a special note beside it stating :
"This bar fluctuates sometimes on a by the second basis, as people feel the have repaid debts through some action, or find another action which they feel cancels the debt. This rating will change often, so a note to the users that this will be rather inconstant and not to be startled by seemingly random changes."
It was currently sitting at 7.2, the reason for which she found to be that he had noted her walking the dog and doing the laundry, and intended on repaying her soon.
"Wow...this thing is ridiculous...if this is just some elaborate ruse...well there's only one way to really check." Lizzie said quietly aloud to herself, and then switched back to the Physical Characteristics. There was a button that said "Monitor" and she clicked on it, it made a small screen appear showing the position of her brother, driving in Jason's car. She clicked on the "Attire" tab and selected shirt. A Huge, pratically endless list of shirts appeared, and then a modification tab for his current one appeared. He was wearing a Blue shirt with a Skate Logo on it, though he wasn't much of a skater himself, his friends were big into it and had gotten him one for his birthday this year. She selected "Colour 1" And modified it in the test view. It changed from Blue to Green. She clicked Accept and saw, in the monitor, it change to Green. Her brother seemed not to notice. She then realized A good way to check. She turned off the monitor and checked the picture on the wall, with him wearing that shirt. Previously Blue it was now clearly green. "It worked...this thing is...real!" Lizzie Gasped slightly to herself. She went back in and sat down to do some more tinkering...
