[Lore is in his old office, though he can't break anything open to get to the parts inside. Believe him, he tried. But he has some nice new scientist's clothes, which at the moment consists of a white button up coat and gloves that he doesn't need right but he's wearing anyway because, eh, why not?]

By the way. I lied. I know. Shame on me. Look how sad everyone is. So disappointed. [He tsks. So few cares (and he knows that probably no one or next to no one is actually disappointed). And that flat voice that he used when he introduced himself? Completely gone. Now? Just a little hand wave.]

My name is Lore, I'm Data's older brother. I'll be you're resident maniacal android for this trip, or until the old cookie-dropping creepy driver gets rid of me. Until then, it's nice to meet you. [And he grins a grin that could cut glass. But woops! Gone after a millisecond.]

I think that'll be all. [And he switches off the feed. Because now he wants to go investigate the ship without having to try and hold the boring face (he's almost relieved to not have to do that anymore). He'll get back to things later.]


OOC: Feel free to spam off the post and catch him anywhere around the ship.

[Why is this thing using sarcasm? :| Xen gives the slightest rearing back of masked head, finding this to be a most unexpected response.]

I didn't declare termination... Though, I'm glad you at least recognise the need to resist the priority of organic destruction.

Why do you see it as a priority? A result of faulty programming? Viral infection?

Because they wanted to get rid of me first. Self-preservation. You might call that faulty programming, I certainly thought the same thing wrong when I came by it in biological life and had done nothing at that point to deserve the sentiment.

Then why not simply hide whatever it is they wish to target you for? Or are you operating on a strategy of pre-emption, assuming hostility where none has been proven?

Re: Video:

In the beginning they only targeted me because they were afraid of me, not because I actually did anything.

That was enough to sell me on pre-emptive protection. Or postmortem vengeance.

A causality loop, then... Not without remedy.

When I'm convinced I'm safe [and that someone cares about his fate] I'll reconsider my positions. Though until then, I do at least recognize that violence is going to be a wasted effort here.

[Unless he really, really wants to make someone hurt. Which has happened before.]

And what parameters are you using to define 'safety'? Immediate or something more long-term and... Strategic?
