Are there any AIs out there who aren't megalomaniacal psychopaths who need to have their power supplies yanked? Sound off; I get the feeling we're gonna want to be working together for the next few days.

The rest of you, will you please please please try to call for help as soon as you even begin to suspect you might need it? The time to deal with

Hey. I'm not racist. I have all kinds of robot friends! Like... [uhhhhhhhh] that dude who was friends with Shadow and was all [Fake robovoice:] "Urge to maim: rising".

Yeah, he was okay.

[Beat.]

Anyway.

You got a plan, Alex?

[Sonic, you did not just--oh, never mind.]

A plan? To a first approximation, sure.

I'm going to kick AM out of the subsystems for one of the Zones and lock it down myself. Either one of the hospitable Garden Zones or Kurzweil. It would help if people were making as much trouble in the other Zones as possible so he's too busy putting out fires to stop me.

Trouble's my middle name.

Pitch me a few suggestions and I'll get started.

How good are you with computers?

If the answer is "not very," what can you do?

encrypted

[speedyasshole]

Uh. I know how to use Google? Whatever. "Not very" sounds about right.

I can break the sound barrier. I can teleport too, but that's been sorta sketchy at best since I got here.

[spacebased]

Really.

All right. I'm going to load a bunch of attack programs onto some portable media for you, and you're going to upload them from as many different terminals in as many different Zones as quickly as possible. Sound good?

Sorta like a stationwide scavenger hunt, huh?

Sounds like fun!

Come to Kurzweil. It's going to take a little while, 'cause I have to scare up a few dozen minidrives and then write to them.

OOC: We need to check with Alba to see how well this will work, but there's no reason to assume Sonic can't do it.

[speedyasshole]

On my way! And I got a couple credits for that whole vegetable-schematics thing, think I could buy some?

OOC: Sounds good.

[Alex laughs.]

This is an emergency. I'm commandeering them for the public good.

Heh. I'm sure Hypatia will understand!

[Sourly:] Ask me if I give a fuck whether she understands.

[speedyasshole]

Okay.

Do you?

[Lineface.

Y'know, metaphorically.]

...Right.

[speedyasshole]

So uh.

You like, got a body anywhere in Kurzweil, or are you stuck in a radio somewhere or somethin'.

[spacebased]

My mainframe is in Kurzweil. I wouldn't want to be on the network; that's rubbing shoulders a little too closely with Hypatia.

[Bitch be crazy.]
