Jukka Sarasti Viewpoint

Preparations complete.

  • Anti-matter reserves – 100%.
  • Theseus expansion – 58% and counting.
  • Charybdis overhaul – 100%

Next objective: Dispatch Keeton in Charybdis.
Keeton summoned to personal quarters. It will arrive in approximately 3.2337 minutes. Human will delay while contemplating disobeying. Ingrained subservience will override apprehension. Best suited reaction… Empathy 41%… Threat of last encounter 8%… Honesty 51%.
Keeton enters as I examine Rorschach growth allometry. Access English grammatical system. DVI offends the human’s sensibilities. Resist predatory impulse at its discomfiture. Explain rudimentary uses of facial dimension variables with limited condescension. Suppress the strengthening predatory impulse.
Attempt to ease relations; predator-prey dynamic and the human lack of perspective negates my efforts. Proceed to state Keeton’s objectives and reasoning behind his selection. Elaborate extensively to give understanding of situation.
Most effective tactic… Cascade facts regarding Keeton’s qualities as “Chinese Room” information receptacle and his “object lesson” as means to endow ability to convince – believe. As preconditioned unwillingness to accept vampires/vampiric logic wanes continue to anticipate and answer its simplistic view of situation.
Calculate effectiveness of subduing Keeton and placing it in Charybdis versus subsequent damage in psyche and effect upon ability to convey message upon arrival at Earth. Effectiveness 100% – Negative ramification 86%.
Trust. Noun. The firm belief in the reliability, truth, ability, or strength of someone or something.
Generate trust through traded personal . Share folk tale. Human cannot comprehend intricacies. State objective. Pursue objective.

  • Anti-matter reserves – 100%.

  • Charybdis overhaul – 100%

Theseus targeted. Impending attack in 3 seconds and counting. Damage approximation 24% of weakened state. 217 enemy units launched from Rorschach lower perimeter. Theseus hit. Keeton shudders in surprise; needs 13 seconds to comprehend total information. Dropping to floor – 0.6 seconds till his body is out of reach.
Ship damage at 27% of weakened state. James barricaded in bridge. Ship controls are manually overridden. Theseu…. 1001101110000111000111100010101101100111100…

Okay I am going to stop this charade. Sweet Jesus I didn’t get into this one very easily. I attempted to incorporate a perspective on events in this scene through a computer/-POV perspective that I believe is similar to one of a vampire/Theseus combination. I wanted to incorporate percentage based statistics and a predator mentality. By acknowledging Siri as an “it” and as distant as possible it fostered a feeling of separation necessary to kill without emotion. Also I tried to eliminate the past tense in the account due to the vampires’ inability to sense the past as the past. Finally, through the scene of his death I tried to incorporate a couple first-person perspectives. Namely, I thought the routine of his injection should be so normal that he didn’t even notice taking it. Also as the seizure set in I tried to limit his perception of events as the mind would shut down. Lastly, I tried to incorporate Theseus’ thoughts through the display he would have shown Siri. This assignment was much more difficult than I had previously thought it would. Don’t think I captured the sense of Sarasti very well but it was at least mildly entertaining to try.
