[crickets]
Miranda (narrating): The future is here. That’s one Being out of the Game . . . Who’s next?
Cybele: They did it!
Bennett: I know!
Cohen: You did it!
Poe: Would you like a hug too?
Sparrow: I’ll pass.
Rosen: And you’ve already finished?
Miranda: Yes! We did take lots of photos for you.
Rosen: For this, I flew international.
Chapter 24 ~ End
Uh, and the fact that she’s still functioning at all?
Um, did they also change Cybele so she doesn’t *need* the game? Remember what happened to Kara Lynn when she didn’t fight for decades.
I was just thinking that. Well, that and a vague sort of dread feeling…..
Kara Lynn and Patrick talked about how they felt a certain way about the game, like it was the one thing they wanted to do in their master’s honor even if their master disapproved. Maybe they can ask Cybele if she still feels that way as a diagnostic.
If that starts showing up then they can just erase the added part.
It took decades to show up in Kara Lynn. All of these humans might be dead by that time. If they had taught others how to edit Being code, and Cybele were in contact with those people, fine; otherwise she could be in bad trouble.
You have to think long, long term when Beings are involved.
Yeah, this trial is not over. Not by a long shot.
I’m already missing Cybele’s bantu knots. They were MAD cute!
I’m scared for Cybele… although surely this ‘coding’ session went better than what Cohen attempted with Patrick.
