CJACOBS: 002

[cjacobs]

Maryle and I were able to pull data from the CPU delivered by Cal and Eva.

The Sterilization Event was triggered by a significant group of people in Xitang being partially severed from the veil. 20 self-reports were evaluated by HDroids, which identified a specific defect in the neural implants. HDroids fixed the imperfections and relinked to the Veil. However, anti-Architect graffiti began to pop up around the city, indicating more people had defective implants other than the 20 self-reports.

Mass scans revealed that the entire city had spontaneously partially severed. This triggered three protocols:

1. The sterlization protocol in Xitang. We disrupted this.
   
2. Mandatory inspection check by HDroids for anyone with chips that were implanted in 2005 is currently ongoing.
   
3. A relocation effort of all defective implants to Sighisoara, Romania by Feb 28. This is for another sterilization protocol.

Issues

1. Do any Dislinked agents have a chip that was implanted in 2005? If so, they are going to end up being noticed as not on the radar.
   
2. How to deal with Sighisoara, Romania?

Do we fully sever the evacuees, or relink them? Being in a prolonged partial state can trigger catastrophic neural regression. Relinking them and re-integrating them into other pres cities would keep them protected.

How do we deal with our agents who had chips in 2005?

[Engineering]

Do any of you have a 2005 implant?

Comments

[loculus]

Yes. I've been petitioned for you to not be allowed out of the laboratory.

Likewise, I'd prefer if you kept your shit firmly inside.

maryle/dom.

[chemveil]

Computers and I must be estranged.

[...]

Are you worried about Niko?

maryle/dom.

[loculus]

Perhaps we fashion you jewellery made with heavy magnets so you destroy computers before you have a chance to decrypt anything.

[...] Yes, even though it's unclear if we have anything to worry about.

maryle/dom.

[chemveil]

That sounds kind of fun. I love a bit of destruction, and I'm sure no one would be upset about this.

Yeah. I am a little too, even though it's maybe nothing. [...] We can kindly put our cigarette grifting on hold, just in case.

maryle/dom.

[loculus]

I don't believe we have much need for functional computers here, in this ship, in the stratosphere.

If only he knew what favours we do for him[...]!

maryle/dom.

[chemveil]

My thoughts exactly.

We're so generous. [...] I'm sure it'll be fine, Dom.

maryle/dom.

[loculus]

We can spend our energies in better ways right now than catastrophizing.

maryle/dom.

[chemveil]

Yeah. I'm going to stare at what we found to see if I missed anything.

maryle/dom.

[loculus]

Perhaps you could look for small emojis in the code of explosions and skulls.

maryle/dom.

[chemveil]

I would have so much more fun if I was interpreting modern hieroglyphics.

Do you need a distraction?

maryle/dom.

[loculus]

I am the distraction. Do you need one?

maryle/dom.

[chemveil]

You can come help me if you want, but I'm fine.

maryle/dom.

[loculus]

I doubt I'm of much use to this effort until they turn their sights on Romania, I'll gladly play valet while you save the day.

maryle/dom.

[chemveil]

I assume you'll head down for that too?

maryle/dom.

[loculus]

If I was in Bishop's good books and a better mental state I wouldn't even have to wonder.

maryle/dom.

[chemveil]

I can go hit on Bishop for you.

maryle/dom.

[loculus]

I can seduce! I can be seductive!

maryle/dom.

[chemveil]

I'm better at it.

maryle/dom.

[loculus]

When was the last time you successfully employed your feminine wiles?

maryle/dom.

[chemveil]

On purpose or on accident?

maryle/dom.

[loculus]

Intentionally, however, now I'd like to know both.

maryle/dom.

[chemveil]

Intentionally, like [.......] a year ago, but not because of failures, because of lack of attempts.

Unintentionally, within the past few months I suspect.

maryle/dom.

[loculus]

A year ago? Who?

maryle/dom.

[chemveil]

Wow, nosy.

Just someone temporarily on the ship, so I had to work fast.

maryle/dom.

[loculus]

It's in my nature, I'm incorrigible, etc. I'd like more details, please.
