Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Good, because it's the only kit I brought. I'll transfer.
*Hits a panel visible only to me, and a beam of light five feet of diameter shoots down from the sky and surrounds us, dropping us inside the hallway of a laboratory office building*

@Techspert

The transition feels smoother too.
*Looks around*
Unless that's just me being used to it.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

You can interact with entities too. Just any changes you make to the cyber world are localized to your personal instance.

@Techspert

That sounds perfect to me, then.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

That now has an option for read-only access. You can look at all you want, but you can't get hurt and you can't hurt anything else. I'd say it's about perfect for today.

@Techspert

But I can still interact with things, right? Just not other sentient entities.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Old theory, new tech. Going to the real world is complicated enough, but getting humans into the cyber world is ridiculous.

@Techspert

We've done it before. What new advantages come with this bad boy?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

I'll try.
*Flips a circular disk to you, about the size of your palm*
Attach this to your clothes somewhere. It's new.

@Techspert

*Catches it, flips it over once in my hand inspecting it, then attaches it to the chest of my shirt like a button*
New gadgets, huh?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Exactly. That’s why I’ll find out, and I’ll give you an earful if you do.

@Techspert

I accept these terms. Lead the way, O Cap'n, My Cap'n.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

But don’t hide anything from me if it becomes too much!

@Techspert

Now when have I ever been good at that?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

I mean it though. Are you sure you’re okay coming with me?

@Techspert

Being in your company will be the best stress relief I could have. Of course I am.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

*Squeezes my eyes shut for a few seconds, thinking it through*
...Fine. But don’t use anything other than your brain.

@Techspert

*Kisses you on the forehead and smiles*
You got it boss. It’s what I’m good for.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

*Looks back and forth, conflicted*
You have to rest. Don’t put on a show for me—you’re running on empty.

@Techspert

You kidding me? I can do anything, you know.
*Chuckles*
Just don’t make me duke it out with anyone and I’m perfectly fine.
