<Snipped quote by Techspert>

Of course. But you have found a reasonable source of standards?

<Snipped quote by Threads of Fate>

I cannot answer any of your questions unless it can be proved that you are on our side. My apologies, but I must be wary.

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

Quite well. Slightly disoriented, but quite well.

<Snipped quote by Stabby>

Well, on the bright side, Unity is gone.

@Mammalia

I am not "on your side." I'm in a position of observation and have a request to be delivered via a surrogate. At present, you are the most fitting surrogate, given that my information is correct. Due to the creation of a new dead end, it is possible that it no longer is, in which case I'll find a new surrogate.

<Snipped quote by Mammalia>

Mhm.

Supposedly gone. I'd prefer evidence.

@Techspert

Providing you with evidence would be potentially devastating to several beings' immediate futures. As such, I cannot in good conscience provide you with the evidence you desire.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Threads of Fate>

On the contrary, I can. As a general rule, "proving," even in the fields of science, means "beyond reasonable doubt." Evidence is what we look for and you have provided none. Because you admitted to stalking us. What's your favorite idea?

@Techspert

We disagree then. And furthermore, I'd contest your accusation of "stalking" you. I spent several hours tracking you, and I hardly consider that to be "stalking." That's classified.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Threads of Fate>

Are you able to prove that? Why wouldn't that make us more wary? What's your favorite color?

@Techspert

Are you able to prove that you have no interest in betraying your comrades? You're asking me to do something that can only be done by allowing you access to myself in the same way that I have access. So no, I'm not able to prove that. Why would it make you more wary? Violet.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Threads of Fate>

Why is it classified? Why are you here? Why should we trust you? How did you get here? What is your name?

@Techspert

Classified. Classified. Because I have no interest in harming you. By tracing the ethereal presence of you and several of your allies over a short period of time. Classified. Any further questions?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Threads of Fate>

Who are you?

@Techspert

That information is classified. Most likely, the answers to nearly every question you have for me are classified as well. Even for information that isn't, it's best for me to err on the side of caution, so I doubt you'll obtain any satisfying answers from me. Whether that discourages you from asking or not, I felt it only fair to inform you.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Mammalia>

Whether good "works for me" or not does not affect the fact that it is good.

<Snipped quote by Threads of Fate>

Hm?

@Techspert

*Nods towards Spirit*

<Snipped quote by Threads of Fate>

Has Unity been destroyed, then?

@Mammalia

Correct. Somewhat surprising, seeing as the dead end reached wasn't present before. Unavoidable side effects, I suppose. In any case, were you involved in the so-called "Noble Incident?"

Myriad Reality

*Walks in to where David and Spirit are*
Finally. I've been waiting for you for some time now. Unfortunately, or fortunately depending on your perspective, a dead end was reached. The question now is if there will be a fourth.

Myriad Reality

*Looks disturbed for a moment*
Well, that changes things... Of course there would be changes, but... This map is getting complex... Just show up already, idiot.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Threads of Fate>

Maybe indirectly. I don't know a lot of super-powered people, and I wouldn't be considered an "ally" to many in this "group".

@Armed Forces

*Mutters something to herself*
I see. My apologies for assuming. I wish I were able to help you directly, but unfortunately that's not an option. I'd refer you to someone who could, but it's important to err on the side of caution and not do so.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Threads of Fate>

It could be possible, but we don't have the means to do that without destroying what we're trying to get to in the first place. Alliance tech may be vastly advanced, but a lot of it isn't perfect.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

A lot of people have already died.

@Armed Forces

I'm sure you have allies capable of it. I'm aware of at least one at the moment.
