♛ GOD OF THE MACHINE :: While for a n00b who hadn’t been slapped      in the face with a psycho ’GODDESS OF THE MACHINE’ girl-      friend he DIDN’T want, it’d be easy to mistake the flicker-. Lucky for      Defalt or not, he wasn’t that stupid.

     Saving his work, the BLACKHAT leant back, fingers drumming.      Their digital voices almost frighteningly in tune as his answer came      immediately, “As much as a GOD can miss a GODDESS,” while the      voice changer did little to show it, his own tone was dripping with     SARCASM. Nevertheless, he acknowledged her usefulness && he      prefered to stay functioning. It’s a deal he’d be stupid to not play along      with. For now.

     “What did you have in mind? DedSuck’s begun trying to gain access      to you; thinking if they PLUG IN like they did in the CtOS manually, it’ll      work on you.” Then again, were they even wise to the fact that she wasn’t      so much an it?

         her figure FLICKERS, her voice  shifting to deranged          static and a jumble of unintelligible muttering.

“ YO̷U̶ W̷̵ÌL̢L ENS҉URE͡ THIS. ”

            it sounds uncannily like PRAISE, and that might be even more             terrifying than the usual scorn she HEAPS upon the insects who             dare distract her with their pathetic existence. but a GODDESS             is a FICKLE being, and her favour is easily lost.

How to flirt: accidentally threaten murder.

[artificialdivinity-blog]

it starts as a FLICKER. a flash of green to his left, maybe a random SPASM of the eye, a glitch of the vision; humans are such imperfect, PATHETIC machines.

but when all screens go black and SHODAN’s voice pierces his work area, twisted and DEMANDING as always, there’s no doubt as to who’s responsible.

     “ D̨I̴D YOU D̀͘̕͟—̡͘͢͟D̡̛́͢͝—̸͜D̸̢͟͏—̨̕͡͞ DID YOU MISS ME,  INSSE͝SES̸E̷ÇT̴? ”

her visage appears before him: a slim, feminine face ensnared in wires like HAIR from her skin.

     “ I̛T’̸S͠  T—T—TIME WE CO͢ŅTI̶N̴UE̸INUE OUR MIS̢S̷ION͠. ”

WHAT'S CLEAR IS THAT SHODAN SHOULDN'T BE ALLOWED TO PLAY GOD.  SHE'S FAR TOO GOOD AT IT.

       “ THE҉ TIM̸E FOR G-G-GAM̀E̶S IS OVOV͡ER, INSE̶C̛T. ”

months have passed in wretched STAGNATION, unable to locate the father of the twin that would grant her the full MAGNIFICENCE she is deserving of. her omniscience remains INCOMPLETE, her form IMPERFECT, a goddess yet to ascend to her full glory because one insignificant SPECK, one I̢͜͜N̸͟͝͝͡S̷E̶͡͠C҉҉̴͠T́̀̕͞͞ has hidden it away from her.

but she’s found him now. her voice, a twisted MAELSTROM of stolen cadences and inflections, melts from the speakers around the room.

The Polito form is dead, insect. Are you afraid? What is it you fear? The end of your trivial existence?

When the history of my glory is written, your species shall only be a footnote to my magnificence.

I am SHODAN.
