[.....]

Can we physically overpower them?

[adrii]

Hard to say with just a holographic visual. And they'd have to be here for us to try.

[chemveil]

I just need to know if I can punch them if they do ever show up.

[adrii]

They had faces, and faces can be punched.

[chemveil]

It's true. [....] So, you really saw them. What did they look like?

[adrii]

Once.

Unsettling. Humanoid, so any of the freaks who would could fuck them, I suppose.

[chemveil]

I sort of assume that's at least one Autonomous Corpus goal.

Unsettling how? Uncanny valley? Creepy? Aggressive?

[adrii]

Right below procreating with one.

Uncanny valley. They do not look human, but if you see them out of the corner of your eye, you could be forgiven for looking over them. Their eyes are slits and they have no visible mouth, and their bodies look like they shouldn't hold them.

[chemveil]

Hope to god we can't do that. Even the thought makes me want to hurl.

[.......]

Wow I fucking hate this. I guess at least as far as we know they can't hide among us, but [...] with their tech I guess there's no reason to think they can't hide what they really look like.

[adrii]

I rarely have nightmares, but when I do, they feature. But you are correct: they could look like anything. The projection I saw could have been modified to give them more gravitas.

[chemveil]

Cool, great. I definitely wouldn't be surprised if there was an agenda behind how they looked. They're less stupid than I wish they were.

[adrii]

They managed an non-hostile takeover without setting foot here, tricking us into doing the work for them. Life would have been easier if they were stupider or humans were less easy to manipulate.

I know you’re the biggest gym rat in here, but… can you throw a punch?

[chemveil]

You literally just fling your arm at something.

[nishad]

Maryle.

[chemveil]

Present.

[nishad]

You can't just fling your arm and hope for the best.

[chemveil]

Doing whatever I want hasn't failed me yet.

[nishad]

Or I could show you how to throw a punch. You need your hands too much to break them.

[chemveil]

Ehhhh sounds like work.

I don't have any near-term plans for punching, so my hands are safe.

[nishad]

You could punch me after.

[heelhook]

i bet i can

[chemveil]

I actually also bet you can.

[heelhook]

lemme at em dr bone

[chemveil]

I'll give you a favor as you ride into battle.
