Automated? Automated how?

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

Infamous for what?


Intelligent probes to scan for all the data, magical scans to look back in the past for corroborating information, things like that. They have scientists working on this type of technology round the clock.
<Snipped quote by Fractured>

I’d say infamous now.

<Snipped quote by Balance>

How public they made it all is the icing on the crap cake.


Yeah, that's really a stupid situation. Tabloids are bad enough, but when the actual news gets their grubby hands on it—sorry, not to rain on what could be a good day.
<Snipped quote by Balance>

About what?


The history of those universes, the abilities they have, their cultures and interactions, all of it. A lot of it is automated, though.
<Snipped quote by Balance>

Oh, you do research? My dad does that too.


Yeah, it's like the kind of thing an archaeologist would do, but with the present. We're gathering information and getting it all into articles and databases.
<Snipped quote by Balance>

So my fame does precede me, sometimes. Usually I’d be glad to have someone recognize me, since it doesn’t seem to be common here. Usually.

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

Seems at least slightly contradictory, but whatevs.


Usually? Are things not going too well—oh. I think I saw something about it in the news.
<Snipped quote by Balance>

Don't you meet other Tier Fours?


There aren't enough researchers to have more than a couple on any mission, so I don't see my coworkers often. Maybe I should hang out with them. But, like I said, we explore unaware universes, and there's enough planets on most of them that it's really unlikely to meet any.
<Snipped quote by Balance>

Were there none on your adventures?


Only as, like, one-time things. Most places we explore aren't aware of the rest of Existence, so we try not to give any hints.
<Snipped quote by Balance>

Why not find someone else you can?


It helps that I'm coming around here more. I think I'll start to find friends who can.
<Snipped quote by Balance>

Was she not helpful?


She is. She's helped me work through this. I just don't want to unload all my memories and everything on her.
<Snipped quote by Balance>

Let me know if you ever want to go back to it.


I will. It's nice to have another guy to talk to about this. All I really had was my sis.
