I’ve never had to operate on a system while being part of that system before. I can try, that’s all I can say.

It doesn’t have to be said, but don’t get yourself killed.

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

I will note that darkness for my world connotates something different. Shadows and physical aren't always bad, they're just associated to bad things. However, darkness in the metaphysical sense is bad, negative emotions, negative intentions, fear. I believe we had this philosophical discussion of whether I'd like to live forever, death is associated with darkness as it is the opposite of life which often associated to the light. Death isn't necessarily a bad thing, it marks an end to a storied life and a transition to new beginnings - that is if you believe in reincarnation. It is those that desire to bring death that is marked in darkness, true darkness. In the same principal, there are differences to physical light and metaphysical light. For that you could probably just flip everything I've said for darkness.

Anyways, I think you can see why I want to be a teacher.

That is the penultimate goal of self defense combat against a giant freezer bird. Make sure you follow your own advice.

*Shoots one spear of ice below me, causing trees of magic circuits to crawl against the ground and up anyone they touch*

*Runs away from them*
I really can’t afford to make contact with any of these even once!
*Flicks my wrist up, ejecting a small metal ball from the forearm of the gauntlet that I catch*

You okay over there?

*The circuitry spreads outside the room and through the maze of the server, spidering up the bodies of any viruses it touches*

*Leaps up into the air and slams my armored fist into the wall, sticking to it*
Peachy!

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

*Flips and lands on my index finger, suspending myself between the circuits*
Realistically, I don’t have a lot of data to burn! You have limited power, and Tempo and the Maiden program are unknowns to me!

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

We’re on a clock, I know!
*Takes the ball in my free hand, clicks down on an inconspicuous button on it, then hurls it at the bird. It detonates when close before contact in a swath of fire and shrapnel*
I want to try something but I want to make sure I won’t get caught off guard first.

I’m not pressing you about the time, I’m pressing about working together somehow!

*Takes the gun from before from my belt and fires it at you a few times*

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

*The aura of cold dissipates completely as my icy form is dented by all of the shots—the circuits recede from the ground, but stay in place on all of the viruses in the server*
