the pygmalion. . . ONLINE CAPTAIN'S LOG: WEEK (13)

monday - thursday (10) survivors Sunday's trial was only mere hours ago, but you find yourself faced with a new week on The Pygmalion. When you awaken, you will find that the ship is still in disarray; there is no robot prepared breakfast, nor has any of the damage been repaired. The ship bears power in the rooms you have decided should have power, though the lights are dim. Without Alice, you are all on your own. The ominous pressure of the Queen Mother still looms, though you no longer feel Her presence. taken list profiles private conversations setting rulebook ENTER COMMAND_

[he wasn't going to interject, doesn't think he really deserves a voice in this debate-- but he knows this subject better than most might expect.]

No. [it's quiet and firm and about as angry as he's willing to let himself be] Do you have any idea... even with only the ten of us left, do you have any idea how much damage she could do?

[Adrien can really speak for himself here, but in case he does feel the need for a little support.]

Agreed. Not an option.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[there's a surprised look that turns into something resembling grateful coming your way for that one, dorian]

[al2955]

I've got no intention of letting her get her hands on more hosts. If you upload into the cradles, that's it. There's no coming back.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

You said she could still get the bodies. They don't need us in them. [there's a strange pause, like he's hesitating] That's why she wanted this place in the first place.

...nuking the ship would still be an option for Sunny, I think. That'd destroy our bodies.

[If that's something Sunny can actually do and wasn't just a bluff to draw out the last alien, of course]>/small>

[monsieurchatastrophe]

It'd destroy the cradles, too.

[al2955]

No shit, Sherlock. The Pygmalion's basically like - ha - catnip to her.

Which is why the second you upload into your cradles, I'm destroying every possible host body on the ship. If you're not going to be using them, then no one will.

[the face of a kid who is Done with shitty AIs and their shitty jokes]

... And the Nuwa, too?

[al2955]

If that's the choice they make, yes. No second chances here. Whatever choice you make, do it without regret.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[that's a bit too late he is NOTHING BUT REGRETS]

They're... waiting on the people here, right? But they can't have all the same options. [since... one of theirs is PUNCH THE QUEEN RIGHT IN THE EYE] So... what are they?
