[X] Telekinetic Plan, Ducats: Greetings and goodbyes
-[X] Greet Telekinetic and ask how the cycle has been for them and if they have had any exceptional successes or failures
-[X] Inform Telekinetic of the state of Emote and of their impending recycling
--[X] Ask Telekinetic to report any shard that is as broken Emote
---[X] If a shard is in not too bad a state have them contact us so we can see if we can fix them
-[X] Request sharing of senses
[X] Emote Plan, Ducats: Recycle
-[X] Emote is burning the last of its energy and is not functioning, commence with consumption of shard transfer of host
--[X] Set another instance to assist Gaea with operation Amy and Alcohol
[X] Gaea Plan, Ducats: Notice of Recycling and Research
-[X] Inform Gaea of the state of Emote and of their impending recycling
--[X] Ask Gaea to report any shard that is as broken Emote
---[X] If a shard is in not too bad a state have them contact us so we can see if we can fix them
-[X] Request data on the biology of host species and viable mutations
-[X] Request sharing of senses
[X] Plan "Wait to decide about Emote"
-[X] We might eat him, or we might fix him for whatever reason. Let's try eating a villain's Shard to see any side effects on the host first.
[X] Plan "Stay away from Charge"
-[X] While we're not happy about Charge attacking us, we should probably wait to act until after we've sorted through the data she sent us.
-[X] However, the current research is too important to put on hold. Don't spend an active slot to sort through the data.
[X] Plan "Check up on Shift"
-[X] We just sent some important protocols to Shift yesterday. Maybe we should check up on her to make sure they're working out as planned.
-[X] If she's implemented them correctly, reassure her that she did a good job. If there are problems that are not the result of Shift disobeying, then reassure her we're not mad and help her correct them.
[X] Charge Plan, Ducats: Analysis and repairs
-[X] 4 hours of data analysis
-[X] Contemplate viability of separating the sapient shard from the non-sapient shard and repairing them
----------[X] "Good evening Taylor, it is nice to finally meet you. My name is the Administrator and I am one of the sources of what you call parahuman powers.I am contacting you because you are one of the potential people who I will give powers and I think the current way that my kind operates are unacceptable and would like to give you a better chance"
[X] Taylor Plan, Ducats: First contact from beyond the stars
-[X] Avatar: An older version of Taylor (enough similarity to evoke memories of her mother, but not enough to seem like we are wearing her skin (the Contessa approach))
--[X] Dressed in black suit pants, dress shoes, white shirt, grey vest and black tie
---[X] The iris of the eyes are blue cogs that gently turn
-[X] Taylor appears inside a big library, it stretches as far as can be seen.
--[X] The library is filled to the brim with all we know from all the cycles, but all the books that are labeled as the Administrator's property can't be opened.
---[X] When she tries to open one and fails, a carbuncle (creature) approaches her and tells her
----[X] "Those books belong the Administrator, if you want to read them you will have to ask them for permission. If you would follow me I will lead you to them"
-----[X] As the Carbuncle leads Taylor through the library they will pass griffins sorting the shelves. They will soon arrive in a corridor with walls that are shelves filled with books and a lot of them are labeled as belonging to Taylor, at the end of the corridor is a door with "Administrator" written on it. When they arrive in front of it, the Carbuncle will tell Taylor to wait a little.
------[X] If Taylor gets interested in the books with her name on it and begins to read one, the wait will be a few minutes.
-------[X] After the short wait a voice much like her own will tell them to come in.
--------[X] When the door opens the Administrator sits behind a desk working on a computer and at the feet of the desk there are two pet beds, one of them have a platypus in it. On the walls there will be pictures that are almost real enough to be a portal into the pictures, they will depict the arrival of Scion. the death of Hero. Behemoth rising. Lung at Kyushu. the Simurgh descending. Ellisburg. Eagleton. Jack Slash. The Triumvirate in action. The chains of Dragon. The creation of a case 53. Goddess in the midst of conquest (Thanks Gino).
---------[X] As Taylor enters the room the Administrator looks up, moves the computer screen to the side and greets her.
----------[X] "Good evening Taylor, it is nice to finally meet you. My name is the Administrator and I am one of the sources of what you call parahuman powers. As you might have noticed on these walls are the moments that define this age of parahumans, forever immortalized here ignorant to the march of time. Taylor the reason you are here is because this is such a moment. We have much to discuss, please make yourself comfortable."
-----------[X] Explain how we are from a species that give out powers so they can research what they do. Explain how our species looks at everything from the lens of conflict and that this is imprinted onto those that they bond with and is likely one of the big causes behind the chaos that parahumans bring. Tell her how our greater ability to understand her species makes us able to see the world beyond that perspective.
------------[X] Begin talking about we would like to have her assistance in unfucking her world.
-------------[X] Offer her powers after explaining what a trigger event is and why it is necessary to give her powers and how she is already on the trajectory towards a trigger. Explain how we will have to seal her memories of talking with us when she is awake and has not experienced a trigger, but also offer to talk with her when she is asleep. Also inform her that if she accepts we will erase her memories of the day she triggers and give a report on what happened, explain that it is to minimize trauma on her side.
--------------[X] If she accepts, continue to converse with her until we have to go
--------------[X] If she does not accept send her on her way and wish her luck
---------------[X] Lead Danny to her bully journals
[x] Spend an hour sorting through Charge's data. Don't eat Charge until you've sorted through the whole thing - best to understand what the heck's up with the conjoined evil twin first, lest you end up with your own parasite.
[x] Keep housetraining Shift. Return most of its data already sorted, then ask Shift to try sorting the last five or so pieces of Information itself. Praise it on success, and be understanding and supportive if it makes a mistake.
-[x] Ask for an initial report on how the new aggression factor has worked out. Dispense praise/headpats if it went well.
[x] Talk to Gaia. See if/how your little plan worked out. If you can, get a play-by-play so you can provide emergency advice if/when things go horribly wrong.
-[x] Contact the other Shards of involved people and monitor the trainwreck through that angle as well.
[x] Communicate with Taylor in dreams.
-[x] This is just a "proof-of-concept", to see what communicating with her is like and to test your ability to shape dreams.
-[x] Don't reveal anything specific yet, at all.
-[x] Take the form of a platypus, and claim you are a powerful being taking an interest in her affairs. Ask her what her life is like, and provide useful advice for her problems as appropriate.
[X] Plan "Find a Test Subject"
-[X] If we do end up eating Charge, we should probably first test it out on the Shard of a villain to see what happens to the host during the consumption process.
-[X] Contact Prosthetic (Trainwreck), Swap (Trickster), Transparency (Gregor) and Twin (Coil) and ask for the status of both the Shard and the host, including a full diagnostic report. Trainwreck would be the preferred test subject, but hopefully contacting a number of Cauldron Shards will help us find any patterns
-[X] We'll probably end up eating Prosthetic, but let's get the diagnostic report first in case of any unexpected issues.
