All right, it seems as though this group has been slacking a bit in our responsibilities. We need to do something about that since I believe we have representations for all of our glorious hosts. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

With that said, I have another matter I'd like to bring to the table: the mech Dead End.

As you probably are aware, he has made public his cannibalistic nature. When I confronted him, he admitted to being a threat, but refuses to do anything about it. I don't know about you, but after the allegations of him possibly sneaking into rooms, I don't think this is something we should take lightly.

I'm not suggesting termination --

[As that would not work anyway.]

Or anything related, but we do need precautions before something escalates. If not from Dead End himself, from another going after him.

I propose something along the lines of an internal tracker, a limited boundary he must stay in, and his own personal "baby sitter" so to speak. If he voluntarily complies and doesn't try to eat anyone, this could be eventually lifted. If he violates the rules, then harsher measures can be taken.

I welcome any other suggestions, but I still feel we must act before someone is hurt. I assume being eaten alive isn't a pleasant experience.

I don't.. know if I feel he actually wants to kill anyone. It sounds as if he's been surviving by.. feeding from friends. It's a tricky situation. If we exercise force unnecessarily others may start to feel we're being hostile needlessly.

[ A gentle sigh. ]

Yes, we need to establish basic laws. "Watch over Dead End" is not a basic law, but "ensuring the general safety of all" would be. I would like to keep a watch over Dead End, and you also mention not wanting to imprison him. How would you handle it?

[aerospacecommander]

If my original statement was unclear - I meant he should be restricted a a perimeter, such as his first forged's commanding area, until we can safely assert that he will not attempt to break into anyone's personal quarters again.

Thank you for the clarification.

[ A curt nod. ]

Your idea has my approval.
