[...You said something about three rules previously, I take it there are notable differences? ...I suppose it’s a good thing you’re starting to realize more truths of this world without it needing to kill you first.]
‘...Yeah… I just, I dunno. I shouldn’t be surprised, but it still bothers me. The Three Laws from all the sci-fi stuff where I’m from says that very first thing, robots shouldn’t hurt people. Then second they gotta listen to orders and then finally protect itself… The more I think about it, the more the six whatevers make sense here, but, fuck.’
[If you were to assign that ruleset to 23, its safety would be jeopardized as soon as people realized it wouldn’t retaliate. .

After a few more moments of this high-speed information exchange, the bot turns back around to return to the kiosk, while 23 proceeds to rejoin the group on their way to the employee-only elevator.[Remember, Jonathan covertly informed you that he saw Mikah notice all of you.]‘Oh, right, I should call to tell ‘em we’re here.’When they’ve nearly reached the doors to the elevator, Lucas pulls out his phone, leisurely scrolling through his contacts in pursuit of ‘MARK’.

Poor Mikah has staggered a few steps away from the group, leaning against the wall next to the elevators with one hand. His other hand is resting on his knee, and he is doubled over in hysterical, full-body-trembling laughter. It’s so intense that his eyes are watering, and he’s starting to have difficulty breathing. As funny as everything said out loud was, he is definitely privy to even more additional amusements.Though, to be fair, everyone else’s hysterics aren’t all that far behind his, in regards to their intensity. That is, apart from Miss Chievous, who is, somehow, still staring at Mark with a serious expression.The rich baritone of Mark’s laughter stands out from amongst the crowd. Upon Mark noticing how earnestly Miss Chievous is w

Upon noticing Dan and Sylph’s arrival, Lucas immediately begins frantically waving at them, as if there existed some possible timeline in which they wouldn’t notice the large crowd of conspicuous people milling about. And going about it all rather noisily, to boot.Lucas works his way over to the edge of the group, continuing a few steps past its periphery. As Dan walks over towards the gathering, Lucas holds his hands up in front of him, cupped together, fervently awaiting her majesty’s glorious audience. The simultaneously hopeful and questioning look on his face, combined with this posture, is all the clues that Dan needs to guess what his heart’s true desire is.

"As I imagine you have numerous decisions to make before we can finalize any details, would you perhaps like to exchange contact information... And how would you prefer I address you, Mind Flare? Well, what names would everyone else prefer, as well, while we're on the subject?" After Miss Calculated tenuously requests everyone’s desired supervillain nomenclature, Mark dismissively waves a hand back and forth."Oh please, there's no need to be so formal. Do you really think I would bother trying to act like you don't already know what my real name is? If anything, I should be the one asking you, Miss Calculated. Besides, if we'll be working together, there's really no need to be so stiff."Ah, right, Mikah mentioned that he didn't have the pleasure of making your acqu
I'd Like to Change My Reincarnation Subscription, Please Ch146 - Plotting Plans and Potential Partnerships
Even though Mikah’s expression is every bit as sour as everyone else’s, he takes a moment to compose himself with a deep breath and forces a smile. Considering how smoothly he does it, and with such a convincing end result, this is clearly a well-practiced mask.Walking back over close with the group once more, quietly clearing his throat as he does so, he speaks up when he’s nearby, although perhaps a touch louder than is entirely necessary.“Now now, it doesn’t do us any good to stew over it right now. Even if we knew who it was and where this lab is, it’s not like we should run over and burn down half the city right this very moment.” As Mikah says this, Miss Calculated is one of the first of the gathered throng to snap out of her violent reverie.

“Ah, c-certainly. It will take some time to analyze everything that is already in place and to come up with effective-” As Miss Calculated is winding up her response, not entirely able to hide her nervousness, Mark holds his hand up once again, this time around at least attempting to hold back his laughter.“Now, now, don’t worry. I understand it can’t be done overnight. And, of course, I’ll cover the costs of everything. First things first though, figure out what safety measures you’ll need in place so you can begin work on that reactor in earnest. “As a prototype, I’m sure you’ll only want to work on just the one at first, but I am very eager to see when you’re satisfied enough to install multiple units w

“Here, here, pick out which ones you guys want.” Lucas has a clearly enthusiastic tone as he manages to smoothly pull himself up into a crouch out of his previously leisurely seated position, leaning forward a bit as he holds the boomer-bouquet out before him. There is a grand total of zero percent chance that he could have managed this little maneuver without his enhanced proprioception.While he had addressed both Jonathan and Dan as well, his positioning makes it quite clear that his main focus is on ensuring that Willy gets first dibs.Not one to disappoint, Willy does take the offer seriously, putting careful deliberation into his selections. After a bit of a delay, he leans forward, gently biting and tugging out one of the longer yet more slender wooden w

“Oh, the Thieves of Elsewhere? Hmm, they do have a rather solid reputation, don’t they? Wait, just how many connections have you managed to make already, Lucas? It can’t all just be coincidences, can it? ...Wait, you have a connection with Alley Cat, don’t you!? What is it!?” When Mark draws this conclusion, he’s fighting back laughter as he asks Lucas for clarification.“Wha-? How did you guess!? I haven’t even met them yet, Mary just introduced us over the phone, though, so why should..?” Lucas’s confused expression as he answers is making his face scrunch up to a rather comical degree.“Ha! You’re going to give them a bunch of money for something, aren’t you!? So <
