seven fallen stars
[ action ]
[Mao strolls down a street. He has no agenda; it had just seemed like the thing to do. This is unusual for the Contractor.
He's in a bit of a mental fog until he's suddenly hit with a number of pictures. He stares at them blankly for a long moment, not recognizing them.
When he does, he realizes that he has a problem.]
[ voice | filtered to Chekov ]
I need to speak with you.
[ooc: Anyone is welcome to find pictures of Mao's human form!]

[And he will be. He assumes the situation is server-related, so he brings a small laptop and a toolkit.]

There's a problem with my server, but I can't locate it. [Adding: So find it for me would be superfluous.]

[AKA he's acting like a cat and he doesn't like it.]
action
Could this be a natural result of your situation?
[He keeps on typing. Starts preliminary scans. Knows very well that he's out of element because this doesn't just involve machinery; this involves a brain and consciousness, and Chekov has no idea how it all fits together.]

[More rapid typing. God only knows what he's doing.]
I'm sorry for compromising your server in December.
action
You were cursed. [It's not forgiveness and it's not quite understanding, either. Just the facts. As a Contractor, that's all Mao cares about.]
action
[He's still not finding anything. Keep on searching...]
action
But if the boy feels guilty about what he did, it'll be easier to keep him under control. There's no advantage for Mao in trying to soothe Chekov's conscience.]
Is that what this is? A lingering bug from your virus?
action
The teenager appears somewhat offended by the very notion that Mao's current malfunction is his doing.]
Impossible. I am good at what I do.

No, not infallible, but you should hope that I'm good. I am the one with your server at my fingertips.

[He wouldn't. He probably could, but it's a very empty threat.]
action
Regardless, I have security measures in place. [And he's become quite familiar with your skills and your hacking signature.]
action
There is nothing wrong with your server.
action
You're mistaken.
[There HAS to be!]

What is happening?!]

Looks like Steven Seagal.

Right now you're more cat than Contractor. And that's the problem, isn't it? It's irrational to not want Hei to see these, to view them as a vulnerability. Clearly there is a problem with his server. He'll have to call that boy Chekov.
In the meantime, he forces himself to be calm.]
Please. Segal wishes he looked that good.
no subject
So this is you. When you were human. [ Interesting. He pauses on the picture of the pregnant lady. ] Friend of yours? Or just a passing distraction? [ It's dim curiosity, not probing of a more serious sort. ]

no subject
No.
But you seem touchier than usual. [ In a way he suspects has nothing to do with the photos. ]
no subject
I'm a Contractor. We don't get "touchy". [Unlike you humans.]
no subject
Then I guess you won't mind me keeping these.
no subject
Why would you want to?
no subject
I guess I've always been a Seagal fan.
