    Summary

    "I had another memory glitch, didn't I."

    ...Yes.

    ART was reluctant. It got even more reluctant when I asked it to show me the false memory. Given the subject matter of the scene that initiated your shutdown, I am concerned that showing you would only cause it to re-occur. Eventually I persuaded it to tell me instead of showing me. Apparently it had been a corrupted version of the same clip, but instead of the show characters I had [REDACTED]

    Yeah. Yeah, I know. Just give me a fucking minute.

    Summary

    This is not the first time Leonide has been guided to the Argument Lounge. Since her first arrival I have had drones marked on her position at all times, though this will be the first time we are in the same room together.
    Oh. Perhaps this is why Perihelion and SecUnit M.1.0 told me Leonide’s destination. With a non-functioning governor module, I could leave the room without telling anyone why or where I am going.
    Still, I do not leave.
    --
    or, SecUnit 003 speed runs a lot of rogue unit lessons and trauma.

    Summary

    Humans often look up as if I'm hidden in the upper bulkhead, but obviously I'm not there. They just need a direction to address, presumably because they feel as though they are talking to themselves otherwise. I'm used to being imperceptible.
    I'd never felt so perceived before meeting SecUnit.

    Summary

    “What are we looking at, time-wise?” I ask.

    Three hours until full collapse, maybe two and a half before irreversible abstraction, and— For a moment, it pauses, but not as if it's nervous. It pauses in a way that punctuates its next statement. Two before you need to terminate my kernel.

    Lightning shoots up my spine. “I'm not doing that.”
