So it’s some sort of extra life?

@Ignacious

So, there’s this other piece to it that I don’t fully understand that sort of seems to act that way? I think it’s closer to the kind of virus humans get, but much more tame.

@Webmaster

Why would there be a biological virus?

@Ignacious

You... erm, you do know that humans get sick, right?

*gives you an annoyed expression*
I know that, Tempo. But why is it on the tablet and here?

@Ignacious

Sorry... I don’t know. It must mean that mom was working on it with Sam somehow. Maybe it’s what made him go out of control?

@Webmaster

So he was trying to replicate?

@Ignacious

That’s the other part that I can’t quite figure out. This program replicates itself, but not what you install it to. Like, let’s say that you installed this and incorporated it into your programming. Then when you tried to remove it, it rebuilt itself.

It seems you did! Are you hungry?

@Zealz

I don't have any money right now... And I'm not saying that because I just figured out who you are here.

<Snipped quote by Server>

Oh huh.

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

I can tell.
*pouts*

@Ignacious

Not entirely a good thing. Don't worry; it's a good sign that you're not.

@Webmaster

That can't be its sole purpose, right?

@GalaxyRaider

I would say about four fifths of it is dedicated to detecting certain aspects of the install environment. A tenth is dedicated to removing anything it considers foreign to that environment, and the last tenth is restoring something close enough to what was originally there, or what the program thinks should be there. Including itself.

An attempt at some sort of healing factor for digital entities? A push for immortality, even?

That part’s hard to say. These comments aren’t exactly... narrative. More clinical than I would have expected from mom.

@Webmaster

I chalk that much up to just work. Not sure how familiar you are with her work side of her life, but I don't find that awfully surprising.

@GalaxyRaider

I never followed very closely until now. You could be right, it’s just off-putting for me.

@Webmaster

Just based off that alone, I wouldn't worry about it.

@GalaxyRaider

Did you find any records during your search that looked like they could be talking about this kind of work?

@Webmaster

I found records talking about exactly this line of work. The previous iteration, based on the name. "Purge01".

@GalaxyRaider

Really? What did they have in them?

@Webmaster

Sounds like I did make it farther than you all did then. From what you described, and what I skimmed, a lot of the same information but with less of the holes filled in.

@GalaxyRaider

What's the purpose of the environment detection?
