two emp charges ̭͕͉̩͕͗̎̏̋̈w̙̳̭̯͓̑̏͂ͣ̋i͔̪ͅll not be enough.

OOC: Plotting post goes up on Saturday, 6/13.

[ A measured beat, and then; ]
But you speak true. These acts are of war because of the ill-will preceding them.
no subject
At least I can say it will be a different war, if war there has to be.
You used to think of this as yͦͨ͑͌͛ͯͪour element, didn't you?

but our memories are shorter than theirs.

the t͉̳͍͈͚̗ͤ͋̏͂̒h̝̺̻̩̖͗ê͙͎̙̝̮͙͈ͪ̔͛̅̚me i speak of is mainly referring to the hierarchy of things, as these machines see it. where mankind stands. and perhaps where mankind should fall.
there is also the notion that this is wh̩͖̝͚at mankind has sown. it's a miserable affair.

[ But out arguing an unknown threat with the messenger of tidings is-- a habit, and unproductive, and Thor doesn't dwell for long. ]
How much future do you perceive, Oracle? I would have thought you limited to the confines of your construction.
no subject
my power is̰̩̰͎n̟̖̯'̝̖͔͉ͮͯ̆ț͎̜̏̿ very complicated until i have to use it. my view of the future is limited by decisions that i do not understand, and primarily concerned with the behavior of humans, progr̪̫̮͈̜ͮ̅̄̉ͣ̊͋a̦̳͈͔̟̽ͅms, and the matrix.
