[he's in the process of tilting this device to its proper angle as this turns on, and only a beat passes before he stills, his expression drawn but placid.]

Should you find yourself, throughout all these wanderings in this world's time...standing at the very moment the United Earth's rule handed over to a computer, what do you believe you would do? If you know yourself well enough to know.

This precise moment is unknown to us. The chance is there. And it being so critical to everything about our current state... [a slight pause, mouth pressing into a thin line.]

I feel it something that needs consideration among us.

[another beat, and he shifts to turn the public feed off.]



[private filter to CABLE begins directly after that click, and Blue settles a moment to collect his thoughts and stifle some apprehension.]

Cable. We have not spoken for a time...with all that has happened, I believe you would not find it so strange.

But I hope, as we are...kindred, in a sense, that I could speak to you. Of something I believe you to be particularly knowledgeable...and capable of.



[a beat. he nods faintly, ending the message and switching the feed to a private filter to RAIDEN:]

Raiden. May I speak with you? In regards to your world...and this one.



[another pause, and that message is closed.

after a few minutes of thought, he turns on a private filter to SOFIYA:]


Sofiya... [a hesitation.] I would like to speak to you again, should you have time.

I was just wondering if we could use it to do research.

[thoughtful pause]

You think we can trust it with something like that? Taking such a big part in this op, I mean.

For all we know it's an ancestor of the UEI.

Right....

Is that gamble worth it?

[He sounds a bit upset. Almost a decade of his life was spent being the unwitting pawn of an AI.]
