[Jaunt] Apologies for the comm-spamming

[youandyoualone]

This is Anafiel Delaunay, lately of the Walkabout. I was told of the plague of Trojans here by Naoki and so I have come to lend my aid in whatever way I might. I have also brought Sakuya Tachibana, a healer of no mean skill, in hopes that he might be able to treat the computer disease.

If anyone can tell us how we might help, please do. I am not a healer myself, but I have spent some time as a soldier in my youth. I am willing to follow instruction.

Greetings, Program. I am going by the alias MIR-CL here.

I would normally directly upload the information you'd require to blend in, but we have just received word that is terribly imprudent.

Instead, I will give you and yours a dossier at your convenience. Do you know what, precisely, a Trojan is, ser de Montreve?

Hooray for comm-spamming, I say

Delaunay! And you've brought Tachibana? [Oh! It's two of her favorite people, all of a sudden!]

You've both come at an interesting time! Where are you right now?

Avoid touching people. That's how it spreads, through communications interface.

[Matt's mental voice is a bit snarky, very tired, and appearing on the network for the first time in a long while.]

It's a reference to an ancient war, where a brilliant asshole built a big wooden horse and stuck his entire army inside. The opposing side brought it into their walled city without thinking. When it got to be night... the people in the horse got out and took over the city.

So, yeah. It's a reference to that.

You can't heal a computer virus with normal healing. It's data, a code, that is invading the system. That kind of thing can only be dealt by those who know how to code against it.
