none of which so dangerous as virtue

My free time is somewhat empty now, I find. I suppose I shall find more tasks to complete. After all, I must finish checking my systems for any signs of forced entry while I was unconscious. I've already found and logged Yuan's attempts, but other than that...there doesn't seem to be anything. I am glad I had the foresight to isolate the connection.

I should start construction of a new program, even if it is just one to act as a simple barrier between us and the other worlds, but I am not sure if there is even any point. It has an extremely high probability of being destroyed, just like the first. This would not ordinarily faze me, but there is little point in wasting my time on a futile project with a 0.0053% chance of success for no reason. Nothing will be accomplished by the creation and destruction of another program. It would also be unwise to anger SHODAN further.

Various people said that they were worried about me, even though they did not know me. I am not even from their world. And yet, nobody showed concern for the destroyed program. I can't honestly say that I'm surprised, after all, human nature is completely riddled with hypocrisy.

...and as for that "secret". We're not twins.
