If you're sure. How about the Ais? Want them to know as well? I know you've already met Blue and Theta. ...Might not tell D yet, he's got enough on his plate, but Sigma would be interested.

[beforeblue]

I'm guessing they know your Washington enough to care? And you really trust Sigma, don't you?

Sure, why not. It's gonna happen eventually.

[depthlesslock]

Some of them. I know Theta skates with him sometimes, pretty sure Delta likes him and Sig's had self defense training from both of us. Well, yeah, of course I do. You sound surprised?

[beforeblue]

...it's just odd. Both of us found Sigma creepy as fuck at home. So did Delta and Theta, not that they'd really say it out loud.

[depthlesslock]

Creepy? Of all the words I could use to describe him, and trust me, there's a lot, "creepy" would not be anywhere high on the list. Hell, D and Theta wouldn't either. Or you. Him. The this Wash.

[beforeblue]

Creepy to people used to facing down giant lizard aliens. Yep. There was a high level of him being incredibly disturbing to be around.

[depthlesslock]

...Okay, well that's very different to here. Yeesh. I... can't picture it.

[notyourrookie]

Oh, he'd be polite, gracious even but... should never have happened.

At least Theta and Alpha seem pretty much the same.

[depthlesslock]

What shouldn't?

[notyourrookie]

Everything. None of it should ever have happened.

[depthlesslock]

Are you implying that it happened because of Sigma?

[notyourrookie]

Yes....no. It- it's more complicated than that. But Sigma... he destroyed Maine.

[depthlesslock]

Sigma wouldn't do that.

[notyourrookie]

Burned him up until there was nothing left. Just the Meta.

[depthlesslock]

Maine's always been the Meta and Sigma has nothing to do with that.

[notyourrookie]

He wasn't. Not before Sigma.

Look I- sure. Things are different here. And I can't change what happened at home.

[depthlesslock]

Damn right things are different.

I... why? There has to be a reason. If he did do that, there must have been something he was doing it for.

[notyourrookie]

Metastability.

It doesn't matter here.

[depthlesslock]

What?

Explain.

[notyourrookie]

...he wanted to be human.

[depthlesslock]

Sigma is very human.

[notyourrookie]

Yeah. They all seem that way here.

[depthlesslock]

...I'm almost don't want to ask, but what are they there?

[notyourrookie]

AIs. Artificial Intelligences. Or fragments of them.

Look I don't want to talk about this. Not like this anyway.

[depthlesslock]

...Oh.

Ai. AI. Wait, fragments?

Do you want to meet up?
