I'm bringing you an unconscious human male with facial trauma, blunt and lacerative, a puncture wound to the right forearm, and a dislocated left shoulder.

I didn't do it.

TTLY LATE TO THE PARTY STUPID COLD ttlynotawizard July 24 2009, 01:38:12 UTC

...Herz!?

YOU ARE LATE NO TAG FOR YOU electroniccrane July 24 2009, 01:40:08 UTC

He'll recover, Mr. Whitecastle.

FFFFFFFFFF ttlynotawizard July 24 2009, 01:47:58 UTC

That still doesn't stop me from expressing concern.

Or harboring a desire to hurt Erol.

[locked // unhackable] electroniccrane July 24 2009, 01:50:52 UTC

I doubt you'll be alone in that.

[locked // 50% hackable] ttlynotawizard July 24 2009, 03:22:10 UTC

I'm damn sure I'm not alone in that.

[locked // unhackable] electroniccrane July 24 2009, 03:31:45 UTC

I want to eliminate Erol. Hurting him is pointless and just causes the problem to escalate.

[locked // 50% hackable] ttlynotawizard July 24 2009, 03:35:56 UTC

Where oh where have I heard something like that before?

Suggestions, Major?

[She ignores his first question, sensing it's rhetorical. He's probably talking about something Batou said before the reinitialization, since it's the logical conclusion.]

Kill him repeatedly. Either the system will fail or the experience will shatter his psyche.

Praxis will probably rein Erol in, at least until he discards the idea of playing politics.

[The shrug is evident in her voice.]

[locked // 50% hackable] ttlynotawizard July 24 2009, 03:51:01 UTC

It was definitely an idea tossed around before. That it's been returned to means it's a viable course of action.

I don't trust Praxis in the slightest.

[locked // unhackable] electroniccrane July 24 2009, 03:57:23 UTC

It's not a matter of trust. It's a matter of psychology. Praxis hasn't internalized his new situation yet. He's off-balance and will revert to his comfort zone. Which, in his case, appears to be manipulative politics. He's trying to be liked. To what end, I'm not certain. I don't know if he's certain, either.

His facade will slip eventually--his reaction upon arrival all but guarantees it--but until then, he'll keep Erol in line.

It's that 'eventually' that worries me. What happens then and what do we do about it?

[locked // unhackable] electroniccrane July 24 2009, 04:11:19 UTC

[Who's this "we," white man?]

That depends on how much risk you're willing to run.

[locked // 50% hackable] ttlynotawizard July 24 2009, 04:21:59 UTC

Try me.

[locked // unhackable] electroniccrane July 24 2009, 05:48:41 UTC

Mm. What if the Captain were to decide you'd become too much trouble, and sent you home? You don't have much waiting for you there.

[Hint. Hint. She's not going to mention the conversation with Boar over the comms.]
