That Time They All Met in the CQ

[chiseler]

[Let's be honest, nobody had time to info-share Monday what with motives going live after they came down from the top-level deck and also…you know. The whole awkward thing with the corpse. That happened.

Arrangements are made, the whiteboard's been moved and…there's a wedding.

What the fuck, Cradle.

Either way, assume that Luke found your character in person, sent a message via Furry Passing or contacted them via some other means to inform them about a group meeting up in the Captain's Quarters after the wedding to talk about their findings from the day before.

He's not a leader, and it's probably clear from the way he's leaning against the wall next to the whiteboard and dumping handfuls of space-brand Skittles into his mouth.]

All right…so this happened. [This, of course, being the top deck.] We were all up here yesterday and so we should probably start figuring stuff out. It weirds me out that Alice let us up here now after all this time. [He shrugs.] Who wants to go first?

...Yeah, come to think of it. The internet was down, so we couldn't sign in. I wonder if Alice--River, whatever--would hook it up so we could check it out.

Can an AI disobey a command from a superior? We could show the video as proof - she'd have to give us access, right?

[ WHAT IS THE INTERNET? ]

[refactor]

[ Well, now that we're talking AI, Jack is here to helpfully (?) interject where appropriate. ]

Oh, hell yeah they can. So long as it's sentient? It's a person, kiddo.

[ He shrugs ]

Whiiiich, granted, Al might not be, but if I were to guess? I'd say she was. So, point is, wouldn't count on her not being able to tell us to go screw ourselves.

[baptizer]

[ Narrows eyes. ]

Of course. Never that easy. Ever.

[refactor]

[ Jack looks surprised, but he ends up laughing and shooting her back a smile that looks very pleased with himself. ]

Nahhh, never, unfortunately. You never know with AI! Sometimes they're real helpful and actually could help you out ooooor, y'know, they're lying dicks that turn off gravity and oxygen. Since I'm totally blaming her for that.

[todorable]

This AI seems to pick and choose what it listens to, but it's worth a shot. ...It can't access up here, we have to go downstairs to chat, right?

[baptizer]

We can ask her once we get an idea of what we'll need as a group. Maybe we can have a nice question and answer session with her.

[todorable]

Yeah... We should start listing up questions, then. Maybe hash out the ways she'll misinterpret them so we can avoid a bunch of runaround questions, too.
