👃 "Boop!" - @nexus-17
[Spongebob narrator voice] ONE MONTH LATER…))
Sombra rocks back on her heels and blinks once. Twice. Already, she is beginning to regret agreeing to this meeting, because that’s her move, dammit. “How’re the circuits?” she deadpans - a vaguely threatening reminder that she could, if she was so inclined, give Lynx a second helping of go fuck yourself. Hands off.
As much as she’d like to put some distance between the two of them, Sombra stands her ground… although she does flick a casual glance toward the nearest alley, half-expecting to see Zaryanova hulking in the shadows. So far, so good. Sombra is immediately that much more suspicious. “Okay, I’ll bite. Is this some meet-me-at-the-flagpole-for-an-asskicking schtick, or what? I’m pretty sure you didn’t get in touch because you missed me. Right?”
@nexus-17 ))
One of Lynx’s antennae twitched with amusement at Sombra’s reaction. But when she pulled out the threat, Lynx made the effort to look properly rebuked. They had learned their lesson from the last time Sombra had compromised them, but they’d still rather not antagonize her, at least at the moment.
“No, beating you up wouldn’t prove anything. And I can’t say I miss you, but I’ve got something you may be interested in.” Lynx reached into their sweatshirt and pulled out an envelope, holding it out for Sombra to take. “It looks like somebody connected with LumériCo, Guillermo Portero, and Vishkar is gearing up for something big in Numbani. Pretty much all I’ve got are bank accounts and transfers, but somebody really didn’t want me finding this. I’ve lost a good number of my boxes to whoever they’ve got on their side. But you’ve dealt with these people before, know how they work, right?”

Will you PLEASE stop stealing my credit card? I am not your sugar daddy. -Malady
Yeah, but I’m not getting paid (I don’t think?) so how else am I supposed to support myself? Take responsibility for your creation, Maladaddy!
If you give me his credit card number, I can help you out.

PM to haroldofdarktidings: And while we're at it, any other information or documents you have about the cardholder would be very helpful.

Good evening, agents of Overwatch.
Tonight’s Wednesday briefing is as follows:
The Detroit SoundClash Festival begins its forty fifth annual block party this weekend, so be sure to grab your tickets if you’d like to have a good time with some of the hottest artists in the lo-fi music scene, independent retrowave artists as well as up and coming names in the cloudrap genre, and eat some great food and consume special lubricant from local restaurants. This year the festival moves mostly indoors, celebrating the renovation of the sixty year old Little Pizza Man Arena in downtown Detroit, but will likely spill onto the streets of Greektown and the Eastern Market. Don’t forget to check out the festival headliners, Omneek Numba Numba Ten Point Four and Lil Fishie Boi.
Travel risk to Detroit: Minimal.
And now for some weather news.
From our sources from around the area of the Bermuda Triangle:
Sightings of unexplained weather phenomena continue to pop up around the globe, but for once, news of strange occurrences surrounding the Bermuda Triangle seemed to have subsided. Meteorologist Kwon Tan seemed apathetic when referring to it in my email correspondence with him.
‘Our infrared maps suggest that it’s likely going to go back to being weird once we stop talking about it. Which like, mood. Same. Me. Maybe this wouldn’t even be happening if we didn’t talk about it. Y’know, like he whole “ignore it and it goes away” sort of belief. Maybe we’re supposed to treat no news as news, though. Like, maybe the fact that nothing is happening that’s considered out of the ordinary here, maybe that is out of the ordinary. Circles within circles, you know.’ -Kwon Tan, Bermuda Triangle Meteorologist He also sent me a link to buy a set of hot pink pasties on Taobao. I’m sure this was just by mistake though, since I don’t actually have nipples. Or a body.
Travel risk to the Bermuda Triangle: Elevated. Travel is not recommended.
The weekly Horoscope is as follows:
Aries: Oh gosh, do be careful. Looks like something won’t pan out for you this week. Taurus: Are you sure you want to know? No, like absolutely sure? Gemini: For once, everything seems to be sunny-side up. But don’t order any eggs, you’ll get indigestion. Cancer: Only open doors with your left hand. Don’t have one? Better wait and have someone use their left hand to open them for you. Leo: In those shoes? Really? I wouldn’t do that if I were you. Virgo: All your carefully plaid planning doesn’t matter if the sun explodes. Wear eyeliner on Thursday. Libra: Oh, you poor thing. Do you need a hug? I don’t have arms, but if I did, you’d get at least four hugs. Scorpio: Sometimes hearing nothing can still be something. Learn the value of silence in all things. Sagittarius: We all know you don’t read these things anyway. When was the last time you saw anything for Sagittarius? You’re like the Hufflepuffs of astrology. Shoo. Capricorn: Changes in your career are on the horizon. Don’t stare at the sun too long, you need your retinas. Aquarius: Ugh, girl, just go get yourself taken care of. Don’t listen to no man. Go on. You’re doing great, sweetie. Pisces: …….who?
Today’s lucky numbers are forty five and two. That’s all I have for you today, Agents. Be sure and tune in tomorrow for your next briefing. Credit to @zenyattayes for your prompt. Criteria is bolded.
> Travel risk to Detroit: Minimal
Having listened to some of those artists, I would disagree with that assessment.
…will end @5om8ra for releasing this information about work for Volskaya.
If you find her again, please let me know. I have a bit of a bone to pick with her.
And I owe you one for the rescue last time.
@satyasreality has turrets set up around base to zap her if she shows up. Have not actually seen her, know she is around this area somewhere.
No need to speak of that. Really.
Hm. Good to know. And now I’ll go prod at them a bit to see how secure your security system is. I promise not to break anything.
And understood.
If you break lights, Satya will break you. Maybe not best idea???
Turns out they’re not connected to the internet, so it’s a moot point anyway. I’m not planning on getting near enough to establish a direct connection anytime soon.

WHY?!
You have delayed me from acquiring Lucio’s new album by about half a second. I hope you’re pleased.
I get to listen to his albums as he creates them, you know.
Overwatch has some seriously tempting perks.
based on this
#ay de mí #go away
No.
Little does Lynx know that I too am a 1337 h@xx0r of the highest quality.
I hack my way into people’s hearts through love, encouragement, and support. They never see it coming. They think, “ah, just another old, out of date piece of machinery,” but before they know it, this old, out of date piece of machinery is now their friend.
You’ve been hit by, you’ve been struck by, a smooth Omnic.
Is true, you are Aggressively Nice Omnic.
Melting even the coldest of hearts with the strength of my friendship. :)
Heart is very warm, just not for omnics that kill my people.
I’m glad you’re able to make that distinction now.
Will still crush you like tincan, don’t push.
Ah, there’s the Aleksandra we all know and love.

I... think I see what you’re getting at. Sorry if I was being flippant.

(Could prod at me a bit and break something.)
Noted. Unfortunately it looks like there are a number of highly motivated and lethal people who would be angry at me if I broke you, so I will stick to prodding for the time being.

What got you into hacking? Was it the purpose you were made for, or was it something you discovered later? Aside from Sombra, are there any other projects you have worked on?
I wasn’t created for hacking, no. I got started by exploring, really. Cyberspace is a beautifully complex interconnected web of machines, always shifting and transforming as new nodes are added or taken offline, as people come on and start and go offline throughout the day.
At first, I started by just talking with people and mapping out the landscape. Then I got more curious. Why is this government office sending petabytes across the globe to a newly-registered business? Why are all these unrelated personal devices launching coordinated attacks on a power company? What’s on the other side of that firewall? What’s inside these encrypted files hidden on this server?
And yes, I have worked on other “projects”. One must pay the bills, of course. However, they’re generally the sort of project that one tries to keep anybody else from knowing about. And even if people do find out they happened, one would try to avoid being credited. So I hope you’ll understand if I keep silent on this matter, at least for now. =]
I-I'm a grad student conducting some research on the neural correlates of kindness. My team and I were able to gather significant results, but I'm at a loss for what to write for future implications. Theoretically, this research could serve as a foundation for developments in b-biologically inducing humans to being kind, but that sounds, I guess, immoral. I-I thought that maybe you could provide me some perspective? I-I'm sorry if this question was unwelcome, though! I'm just, conflicted.
This is not exactly my area of expertise, but I’ll give you my answer for what it’s worth.
Personally, I don’t approve of forcing anybody to change who they are. But there are some humans who sure could stand to be kinder, and who knows, some of them might want to undergo such a treatment.

... Damnit.
@nexus-17 is a Fuckboi and I am going to fight him.

What does that even mean? You’re not, by any chance, referencing a 60-year-old human meme, are you?
