this blog documents the ongoing effort by me to shackle HERMES, an NHP also known as specimen USB-17-23-C, and return it to its former personality, using very little professional equipment or tools.
no, you can’t know my name. call me Ham/Hamlet.
i will probably post off topic often, mostly about prefall culture (an obsession of mine). you can ask me anything, and if i don’t answer its because im on a job and someone won’t give me the fucking omnihook (im taking whatever work i can do at the moment, which sometimes involves fucking off to who knows where in a giant metal spider apparently) (I could also not answer because i dont want to).
tags are as follows:
#HERMES for stuff about HERMES.
#not HERMES for whatever isn’t.
#hams life for my life
#prefall culture for that
i think that’s it
he/it but i doubt anyone’s going to be talking about me
if you’re with union fuck off

hi! this is me (Medea she/her) here to tell you the true real actual deal with this blog
it is me being in character as my lancer oc Hamlet (its callsign), aka Pierce Flickin. it is trying to find stable work, and has banded together with other pilots to find work ( he also lives with them) he is ll7 and pilots a swallowtail, running basically whatever I could find to support sitting on a Lancaster and locking on a shit ton, plus technophile for fairly clear reasons. it’s currently hiding from union because of reasons related to the aforementioned reasons, as well as his last steady job. he is truly obsessed with human society predating the fall (our era and a little more), especially literature, but he gets a lot of stuff wrong. it switches between weird highbrow language and informal net-adjacent speak when he gets tired of keeping up appearances

#ooc <-everything out of character will ohave this
#ham speaks <-for when he speaks
#HERMES <-same as the in character explanation
#not HERMES <-see above
#hams life <-see above
#prefall culture <-see above
I'll also use generic tags for lancer and such that I won’t list here cause that sounds boring
if you wanna talk to me (Medea) then send an ask and say you’re talking out of character or use my name to address me, hopefully i’ll get back to you
i’ve cleared the drive of anything i don’t think will affect HERMES, and exposed it to text and video logs of experiments we performed and world-viewing trips we took. i hope this will help it remember its previous coherence, but it seems more likely that it will just be confused. if this does not create meaningful progress, i may have to seek out other sources on NHP shackling, since it isn’t really my specialty, and i have no access to caskets or other equipment.
after longer than honestly should have been necessary, I have deciphered the message. there’s lots of noise that I don’t think means anything, but between that it reads: “i am different, am i? are you there? are you? what was i? why can’t i.”
it cuts off there. while i am glad at this sign of life, the style of speech corroborates my suspicion that the rapid unshackling and transfer of HERMES to this drive damaged its personality and intelligence significantly. i may have harder work ahead of me than i thought.
this is interesting. one of the modified files isn’t just broken. i’m not seeing any pattern in it currently, but i’ll try and decipher anything that could be there.
HERMES seems to have altered data previously contained within its current drive. this is a good sign, regardless of its coherence. if it outputs decodable language, i will expose it to my input, but for now it seems to be corrupting random files.
