Perhaps this is a foolish question, but, considering I've never collected any data on the subject...

[Perceptor's where he always is, typing away at his console. Though his attention appears to be on the Glyph on his arm.]

[Staring accusingly at it.]

... While we're all aware these markings possess certain effects, should we attract the attention of our "hosts"... has anyone experienced any sort of negative effect, pertaining to the changing of one's brand?

[YOU KNOW. For curiosity's sake. Totally. No ulterior motive here.]

The Acolytes. You know.. so sorry you fell through reality, try not to get in the way of anybody building the world, bye?

[sciencetank]

Ah, those! Rather uninformative creations, aren't they?

I've gotten more help from antique assistant scripts.

It's... it was a prank a friend did. [Her smile is a little sad and worried. Damn it all, she should be back home...] He installed this really ancient help script named Clippy to my terminal. It was a pain in the ass...

"I see you're trying to avoid strangling the acolytes. Let me help you!" [She can't quite duplicate Clippy's voice, but it's definitely a quote.]

That would have been a lot more useful.

[sciencetank]

Ah, I see. No wonder it was a mystifying bit of dialogue.

But, yes, I do agree, that would be of more use than the Acolytes currently are.

I bet it could have at least pulled up a template for screaming vulgarities at the Lambda or something.

[sciencetank]

I sincerely doubt anyone needs a template to shout obscenities at that thing.

I never said it was useful help. Just more helpful than the acolytes.

[She breathes a little laugh.]

And I don't know.. have to make sure there are enough adjectives.

[Video]

[sciencetank]

I suppose.

Oh, given the issues thrown at us lately, I'm sure the majority of us here are capable of coming up with such pejoratives.

Poor Clippy.

[She sighs.]
