Force and Action

[He'd seen the news broadcast, and absolutely no part of it boded well. Smash Academy was officially a target to anyone with strong pro-human sentiments. He wasn't as quick to put on his military cap as Cyrus, but he could read the writing on the wall.]

[Text, Public]

A notice to students; over the next few days, if anyone from Final Destination City tries to talk to you about the incident or makes any sort of threat towards you or your friends, get in touch with a member of the faculty as soon as you can. It doesn't matter who; if nothing else you can reply to this message, or visit someone's office hours. Do not try to solve any problems by yourself. Remember that we're here to help you and keep your safe.

I know I'm part of a long line of people you're explaining to today, but... what the hell actually happened out there?

[To Shadow and Ron]

Do you guys need an extra man on security for a while? [The way he says that implies a YET at the end.]

[Text, to Chell]

I heard on the news that they're associating Aperture with the incident. Are you all right?

[That's pretty accurate anyway.]

We weren't badly injured.

[Nothing but the basest of responses over here. He really doesn't want to talk about this until he's actually had time to sort things out.]

...I'm sorry. I wasn't able to help her overcome her programming after all.

She was in a position where she may have been able to escape, but... if she hadn't shot, Rick would be the one dead. I may have been as well.

[Kill or be killed. A recurring theme in his life, it seems.]

Yes, that's right. So it was still for the sake of some sort of defense...

[He stares at the screen for a few moments, letting the implications sink in. If Vivian, who was not programmed to protect people, had done that... Was there a flaw in her programming to begin with, or did that mean she was capable of human attachment after all?

It was promising, but at the same time, she still saw nothing at all wrong in how she'd protected them. How likely was it that she'd use the same methods in the future?

You do believe that is what she did, then? ...The police were doubtful, but I am telling the truth about what I saw!

Her weapons have already been taken away from her and...

[Shadow already swore to reprogram her.]

...I will make sure that this will not happen again. Everything else is up to the authorities.
