War Week

[mockmods]

[A week has gone and past, as has the first of your number. The Researcher revealing himself, more or less, by punishing Patches, the Trusty, for pushing an unclear boundary.]

[And yet, routine seems to have returned. The Researcher makes morning and evening announcements as if nothing has happened. Meals are served in the dining hall. The copies of Oregon Trail in the computer lab now have a text-only mode for some reason? Penny has not been seen since Friday, and attempts to access the Security Room have been fruitless.]

[But overall, life in the Facility has remained unchanged. But the atmosphere is getting tenser - sooner or later something is going to break.]

[Well. Michael wonders if this would be familiar if he'd worked in making the human bodies for incoming demons to inhabit. But alas, he really only knows that process from the client side.

What's on the typewritten side, then?]

[mockmods]

[There is one more thing that might jump out a little about the handwritten side. A quick note added to the margins in the small space left from all the calculations.]

Tech from Project Equinox and Project P.E.N.N.Y. definitely useful. Look into integration w/ Flesh.

Charming.

[This seems important. He should show Janet.

Possibly everyone else, too.

Okay, what else?]

[mockmods]

[It's probably fine.]

[The typewritten page is- at least theoretically more transparent, in that it's written in English. Very dense, technical English.]

[Looks like someone was typing up notes on developing a learning AI.]

[eudaimonikos]

[Is there any indication what the AI was for? Maybe writing its own chapter of a Harry Potter book?]

[mockmods]

[That's a purpose far darker than even the mastermind of your current situation would consider, Michael.]

[No, looks like, as best you can make out, this AI was made to gather as much information and knowledge as possible and then pass it on to the world at large.]

[eudaimonikos]

[Oh good, it's Wikipedia.

Anything else here of interest?]

[mockmods]

[A small doodle designing what looks to be a toy robot. Or at least a little head on a stationary torso-base-thing that's made to look like a robot. Isn't it cute?]

[eudaimonikos]

[Adorable!]
