I see. So are we at an impasse?

@Mammalia

Essentially.

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

Makes it feel cold, in more ways than one.

<Snipped quote by Mammalia>

Fantastically, actually. As a new-ish member of the Big X, I've been working hard to meet the physical requirements, and I'm feeling better than ever because of it.

@Heroic

Sometimes, beauty is the lack of life.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

How so?

@Mammalia

Because she doesn't know the answer herself.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

I'm sorry?

@Mammalia

She's effectively made it so she doesn't have to convince us.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

Well then. A dangerous request.

@Mammalia

Incredibly. She's also tailored the odds.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

Quite. Have we found out what she is requesting?

@Mammalia

Lizbeth to build a weapon for her.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

Oh, hello, Mierno.

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

Alas.

@Mammalia

This is difficult.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

At the moment, no, unfortunately. However, I have no qualms with additional people beyond the surrogate and the Noble viewing the design, which may help assuage your fears.

@Threads of Fate

You're making this very difficult.

@Threads of Fate

My apologies. Duties called. Have we come to a conclusion?

@Mammalia

No.

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

The relative lifelessness of this planet always bothered me.

@Heroic

Why is that?

Myriad Reality

Night.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

Of course. But there is no such thing as a weapon that will only be used to help people. A weapon's purpose is to harm, not to help. It's how that harm is directed that makes it helpful. By existing, a weapon cannot be only helpful to people.

@Threads of Fate

I disagree, but that's not relevant. Can we get any guarantee about the safe use of this device?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

I can't confirm or deny that. The purpose is to keep someone safe, beyond that is up to them.

@Threads of Fate

That makes it less desirable. You do understand that, yes?
