I'm thinking I downloaded Ashton's luck off of him somehow... First Ovan, Aura and that little doppleganger show up (Shut up, Master. I know you're laughing at the irony.) now this mist thing and there's another Tri-Edge paired up in his sister and...

........... I hate my not!life so much sometimes......

So now the fucktard is

Well! Haven't you got a lot on your plate, as usual. Anything I can do to help? I'm rather brilliant with computers and programs.

[stfunottriedge]

No, I'm dealing with this myself.

[lasttimelord]

Well, if by 'dealing' with it you mean 'planning on taking a leaf from the Japanese and sacrificing yourself in one final act that may or may not work and really in the long run just puts that which you protect in even more danger, thus making said sacrifice just a bit pointless' then yes! You seem to be doing brilliantly.

Honestly, you're an A.I., do try to think that through a bit more.

[stfunottriedge]

Just like you said, I'm an AI. I have a programmed purpose and this happens to be it. Even if I didn't want to, I have to, because if I don't then I am agreeing with her that I am a failure.

[lasttimelord]

Ah, well, you're not doing very well on the 'intelligence' bit, then. Kite, what is your primary directive?

[stfunottriedge]

Oh, shut up. Primary is securing Aura's safety and continued protection of her. Secondary is deleting AIDA and restoring The World to proper functioning. Now considering AIDA - the secondary - is trying to delete Aura - the primary - said situation involves both orders which solidifies my stance and decision in it further.

[lasttimelord]

Except not. You'll never fulfill your directives that way. Look at it logically, eh? Now you could go and do something incredibly stupid and get yourself killed fulfilling them but long term, you'll have just left Aura open to attack. She'd be weaker without you around. You need to think of yourself, too. You can't just throw yourself into harm's way and expect that everything will just happen to work right. You need to...to...plan! yes, that's it! Plan, you need long term plans, Kite, or you'll just leave Aura open.

[stfunottriedge]

One: hypocrite. I'd assume "long term plans" include wasting incarnations with that probability that it will end after only using 11.9998% of its possible total span. Secondly: She could always make another.

[lasttimelord]

One: You live with the Master and Sea Devils and Daleks and Cybermen and Autons and Rassilon for Rassilon's sake and well, honestly, renagades aren't exactly known for long life spans. And secondly: ...How, here, exactly, will she make another?

[stfunottriedge]

One: Don't know the rest of those, but I'd say the Master alone proves your point. And Second: That's e-- .......... Actually, I don't even know how she created anything in the first place. She just... does. She's the equivalent of God, so no one really asks...

[lasttimelord]

One: He's rather dedicated to the cause, yes. Second: Well, then, see? That's a bit of a wrench in the old gears, isn't it? And you can't exactly ask her right now, so you should go blowing yourself up until you know just how much danger she could be in. She may be God in your world but here, she might have no power. And no power means she'll be dead very quickly after you. Yes, I may be a hypocrite but the point still stands that she needs you, not just for one big bang but she needs you around.

[stfunottriedge]

............

[lasttimelord]

Right! So, then, Kite. Like I said before, how can I help?

[stfunottriedge]

......don't know......

[lasttimelord]

Oh come off it, you can't start moping now. That's nearly as bad as the suicidal martyr mode, you know. Right! We need to protect Aura and best way to do that is to clear up this AIDA infection. Hm, let's see, well, can't exactly run a virus scan, hm? Have you thought of trying a quarantine? Assuming your powers carried over into this world the same way the AIDA did you should be able to run limited range containment fields - literal quarantines - that won't exactly stop people from touching the AIDA but it should keep it from spreading.

[stfunottriedge]

I... don't even know if the bracelet can do that. There hasn't been a massive-scale infestation yes, so some of the locks on its abilities were never removed. Maybe a false protocol surrounding the region, but...
