Oh, I'm going to enjoy making you suffer the way I have.

I did it right! Everything was perfect... We ran the calculations through all of our minds and all arrived at the same conclusions!

@Balance

She did, you know. She was fine. She did it right. But that didn't make sense to me. So I changed it.

Data: We simply reroute the configurations. How well can we establish a single being's ability in this mindscape?

I'm not sure.
-Soren- I can make that second thing happen, even with all of us linked like this. Who?

Wonderful.
*Data begins to reroute the connections and I surround them with an anti-gravitational field that locks the correct connections in place*

@Etcetera

@Etcetera

I'm not sure... Creating connections is practically impossible for a mental manipulator. If there were a way, I would know.
