FIRST BIOTIC ✯ VOICE ➢ TEXT;

--especially with what's at stake. You know we can't afford to waste time. If anything, he doesn't want us to be dawdling around, even with the Commander awake. I was left in charge of this project, and I don't want these last two years to have been a poor decision. We've got all we can do in order to prevent another-

[Sounds like something's being recorded, and it's pretty important. Well, until the person talking stops, confused and sounding curious at what's just happened to her screen.]

EDI, what's this? This isn't what I was looking for.

[A somewhat robotic voice answers, a female one that states the obvious.]

I apologize, Ms. Lawson, but I am unable to remove this interface from my systems. I do not know what it is, but it seems to be bypassing all of my restrictions.

[Pause. The first voice sounds a bit incredulous.]

Are you saying you can't get rid of it?

Currently I cannot. It refuses to leave.

[A wry 'hmmph' is heard, before the figure shifts and cuts off the voice feed.

And then it switches to text.]

Interesting. You've had your fun and games, AI, now explain your purpose and how you got into our systems. I've no time to waste and I'm certain you don't, either. Once this is all cleared, how about we just go on our own ways, hmm? That seems the best option.

This is a community ofbeings from all different worlds

called

DramaDrama

Duck.

You have no choicebut to wait until itdisappears.

[overloads.livejournal.com]

If the "community" were so interested in connecting me, I'm sure there are other ways than hacking into our systems.

You just have to know who to ask.

[hugmyscythe]

I would not know howthe community reaches

anyone.

It simplydoes what it wants.

[overloads.livejournal.com]

So it's sentient?

[hugmyscythe]

It couldbe.

No one is certain

if a mind, magic,

or technology

is responsible.

[losethreepounds.livejournal.com]

You think we're a robot?

[overloads.livejournal.com]

A crude definition, as AI's tend to have more complexitities to them, but I suppose so.

[losethreepounds.livejournal.com]

We're not.

[overloads.livejournal.com]

As I can tell now, clearly.

[makewayforroze.livejournal.com]

Welcome to the community. It's more of a place for people to talk than anything.

[overloads.livejournal.com]

...Talk? Really. [NOT IMPRESSED.]

[makewayforroze.livejournal.com]

You can visit others but that seems to be the main thing. Making friends can be nice.

Hello! My name is Xelloss and I was passing by. [Metaphorically speaking. He doesn't totally get it, but the idea he could 'enter' or 'leave' a post...]

As it happens I do indeed have some time to waste.

[overloads.livejournal.com]

...And for what reason do you have to waste time with me, hm? I can assure you there are more interesting subjects in the Alliance then you'll find here.

[astralwhirlwind.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's an easy one. I don't.

May I ask where here is?

[The feed shows a somewhat exhausted nineteen year old Chris Ramirez preparing to speak.]

Um, hello. From what I understand about this place, it's a place to communicate with others from other worlds. It has the nasty impulse to go into whatever device you happen to be using: a book, a computer, etc.

[Sorry Chris, you're not special enough to get video yet. :|;]

As I've noticed. What worlds are we talking about?
