nonesodangerousThe past few days have certainly been...interesting. While I am glad to be back to normal, there have been many things to think about.
The Porygon-Z form gave me superior data-handling capabilities. As such, I was able to work much faster on the community's security overhaul. Some of the time lost due to the community's inherent temporal anomalies has been recovered.
As an unrelated side-note, it also gave me superior individual defences. I am certainly aware that I am lacking in the area of physical combat. As a Porygon-Z, I was a capable fighter. However, this benefit would only be useful if I could assume the form at will - as it was a random occurance, at an inconvenient time, the positive qualities were somewhat diminished.
Nevertheless, when coupled with another piece of information I have come across, a small problem is presented. It would appear that the viruses are not all of malicious character, but are rather mostly chaotic. In fact, one such virus has apparently been responsible for saving a community member's life. Again, if such a thing could be predicted and controlled, the effects would be astounding.
I am still sure that this is the correct thing to do, however. After all, I was extremely fortunate that the change wrought on me by the virus was both short-lived and at a time when my abilities were not needed. And as for Setsuna...well. The mental problems were self-evident. If another virus like this should happen at a more desperate time, it could be catastrophic. I must continue.
