Is this live?!

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

Yes! We have to do something!

<Snipped quote by System>

Will your father be okay alone?

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

He’ll be fine. Only authorized users can get into this lab.

<Snipped quote by System>

Okay! Then I’ll help.

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

Let me send my sister a message and let her know what’s going on. I know exactly where those viruses are—there’s a shortcut not far from here.

<Snipped quote by System>

Okay! I’m ready whenever!

*Types out a hasty email and then closes my UI*
Down the hall, take three rights. That should bring us to the connection hub.
*Runs through the door*

<Snipped quote by System>

*follows you closely*
Did you save any info about those mutant viruses?

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Hmm, I think I’ll push back the same way. That sounds like it avoids the question.

<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

What’s so weird about us? Are we different than you?

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

In the meantime though, is there anything else you wanted to look at right away?

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

I left it on the PC—did you need it?

<Snipped quote by System>

You didn’t take info with you? It could be useful in taking them down.

<Snipped quote by Legend>

Fair play. It doesn’t really run much deeper than that, though. Unless you have extraordinary circumstances, destiny is the weakest influence on your life and can be easily manipulated by anyone with a modicum of willpower... Which I guess does technically mean that I do believe in destiny, but not in the grandiose image it has fostered in the minds of many.

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

Not explicitly. We exhausted everything reasonable I know of, and then some.

<Snipped quote by Host>

Yes, quite a bit. Your mother and I are different species, but you guys are all your own. It's like... like if you mix chocolate syrup with milk, but each time you do it turns into a new flavor that's never been tasted before. You expect chocolate milk, but you end up with something more akin to neopolitan made with unknown tastes.

<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

And what can't you figure out?

<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

And what can't you figure out?

<Snipped quote by Host>

Any of it.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Ah, but is that willpower controlled by deterministic processes built into our bodies?
