... Someone else could know her credentials. But you seem to be right at least.

@GalaxyRaider

Since she continued to visit the lab, I think it makes sense that she continued this work. Meaning whatever it is isn’t just a byproduct of whatever infected her. It’s something mom is legitimately working on.

@GalaxyRaider

*The ID appears consistent across the records*

A timer would be meaningless to us though. It's really hard to tell.

<Snipped quote by Server>

I'd have to double check.

@GalaxyRaider

*The data indicates that while the test cases slowed after the target period, they continued sporadically*

<Snipped quote by Server>

Wait... Has she? Did I miss that?

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

Yeah. But that means it has a timer, or a trigger that isn't just "new info needs purged", right?

@GalaxyRaider

What did the logs say? She’s been back here since that day.

*Takes a step back and looks at you*
Is that really the move?! I know it’s a crazy idea but I don’t want us making any mistakes just because I had a crazy idea.

@GalaxyRaider

She’s worked on these since everything fell apart, right? Any damage has already been done.

I think that I’m never going to quit on anyone I care about. I think it might be hard. I think it might be really, really hard. But yes, I wouldn’t lie to you about this. Ever.

@GalaxyRaider

I don’t know, maybe... maybe the answer is to find and confront her about this. Despite what Data said.

... How about now? It clearly doesn't do anything instantly, because I assume you still remember that we've told you about your sister as of right now at least, right?

<Snipped quote by Server>

I'll never think otherwise.

@GalaxyRaider

But do you really think that?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

It had better be... I'm not trying to hurt any of you by sharing that. I just want to solve it. I want to solve it and get everything back to normal.

@GalaxyRaider

Do you think that mom can be saved?

*Wraps my arms around you in a huge, comforting hug*
Here's hoping more info proves it's something else.

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

I didn't either, or else I would have been more eager to share it.

<Snipped quote by Ignacious>

Based on what we have now, at least.

@GalaxyRaider

*Holds your wrists tight against me*
I sure hope it’s something else...

I dunno. Maybe these specific listings aren't the only cases actually applied, but only just in a specific batch? Or maybe X is actually exempt, and where I imagine is his spot is actually Sam's? We don't have all the information. But your behaviors as far as memory goes lines up just way too well with what this program seems to be intended to do.

<Snipped quote by Ignacious>

It is crazy. It really is.

@GalaxyRaider

*Looks down, clearly disturbed*
