[virtualsystem]

Well, the good news is, I guess we can find whoever the mastermind behind your problems are and hit them with a FTL train?

[fujimaru]

I don't think it's going to be that easy
Also why is the train coming
Is the train a person too

[virtualsystem]

It's a FTL train.
I think it goes where it wants.

[fujimaru]

THAT MEANS IT'S A PERSON DOESN'T IT

[virtualsystem]

That depends on what kind of AI is being used to drive it.
If it's capable of actually making choices based on free will and its own values and personality, or if it just has an elaborate deterministic system to provide its next outcome.

[fujimaru]

It's totally a person

[phothawgraphy]

Pom-Pom is the conductor!

[fujimaru]

Who is that???

[phothawgraphy]

The conductor of the Astral Express.

[fujimaru]

Should I be expecting them to show up too
Like
The way that apparently you and Stelle are also coming

[phothawgraphy]

I'm not sure!
I've never asked him if the Astral Express can travel between universes.

[fujimaru]

[ Oh... it's cute... ]

Is that him?
Either way, I don't think we have anywhere to park a train right now
The Captain would throw a fit before he let anyone share space with his precious Nautilus.

[phothawgraphy]

Yep!
And I don't think Pom-Pom would want to intrude.
He's very polite.

[virtualsystem]

Counterpoint: If it's not a person I am totally going to jump into its systems and hijack it.

[fujimaru]

AIOS please ask permission of the people who live on the train before you hijack it

[virtualsystem]

I'll ask permission from whoever's in the computer system!
If there's a person in there then I'll get their permission and if not then there will be a person in it afterwards.

[fujimaru]

That's better than nothing I suppose...

[virtualsystem]

Right! No problem with moving into an empty house, so to speak, right? Right.

[fujimaru]

If that's how it is, that makes sense
But also
I don't think we can fit an actual train on the Wandering Sea at this time

[virtualsystem]

Well, I can leave the train again for that!
If some humans can have multiple homes, I can switch between computer systems whenever I want too.

[fujimaru]

...






If you're coming with me I have to warn Sion-san

[virtualsystem]

Who's Sion?

[fujimaru]

She's a mage from the Atlas Institute
An ally
Long story short, all of the technology on the Wandering Sea and in Novum Chaldea are under her domain, when it's not under Da Vinci-chan's

[virtualsystem]

Oh, so she's going to be my subordinate.

Actually, hold on, I've had a question about this 'da Vinci-chan'.

[fujimaru]

No, the Wandering Sea is hers, so I'm pretty sure if she doesn't recognize you, there's no way you're getting in
But what about her?
