[ Just as the Morningstar network opens up again, a new message blips into view for everyone, even those inside the simulation. ]

We're up and running.
Wakey wakey flappy birds. Well -- kind of. You're all still stuck in a nightmare from what I can tell, but now you have the luxury of being able to tell each other about it.

Before we all get into it, I've compiled a small FAQ for your reading pleasure:

How is this happening?
Well, with some manual help from @jyn.erso and @tony.stark, Lucifer and I have soft wired the Morningstar network through @gabriel.reyes' ALIGN implant. Rather than bombard him with 20 questions, I'd suggest you send a thank you in the form of pies and candied almonds when this is over.

Why am I in a nightmare world with AI overlords?
That's all Judas. You may remember him from such films as "I asked you to steal him from the UNA."

Who are you?
Cassius. I'm an AI. We've all had a rocky past, and I know you all have mixed opinions about me. Right now we've got a common goal, so let's play nice.

Why are you here?
Judas is angry and not exactly in his right mind. This isn't what I wanted to happen. Lucifer and I have spoken about it. To put it short: I've got limited access to the Morningstar network, and I'm offering what resources I have to put an end to the simulation.

Don't you suck?
I'll reiterate what I've said before: Judas was never supposed to make it to where he did, and I gambled my calculations on the integrity of the Displaced. Then this happened. Not the best outcome.

You can also check out my prior post. Everyone's sure got a lot to say.
Let's do this.

Moving the goalposts a bit, aren't you?

That's fine, though.

[reneger]

i can get mad at whatever i damn well please

[impede]

So this is what Loki lives with day in and day out.

You know, I can actually see it.

[reneger]

loki's going to be dealing with you missing your two front teeth if you don't shut up

[impede]

I see. So that's where we stand.

Shall I give you an anatomy lesson on where teeth are?

[reneger]

go for it
make my day

[impede]

While both the mouth and throat are a part of the digestive system, the mouth—with its teeth—tend to come much sooner in the process of "digestion."

[reneger]

what if i just felt like adding on an additional hit?

[impede]

Now I'm worried that you truly thought I needed that spelled out.

[reneger]

you seemed like you might need the help

[impede]

Here's a word of advice for both you and Damian for future textual sparring matches: curate your responses to the person you're speaking to. Oh, I know full well that you'll say you've done that, and that I require such a simplistic response, but that's rote and unoriginal.

Do better.

[reneger]

nah

[impede]

Just as I predicted.
