Funny, though," she tapped a forefinger to her chin in classic 'thinking' posture, musing with thespian wonderment, "It's like hacking core safeguard programming can compromise the integrity o' th' original code an' cause, like, Iunno, unexpected behaviors!" Her hands splayed, fingers stretched, and waggled with angry jazz hands.<br/><br/>"What if that<em>nice</em>human medical intern forgot to turn off the program before he entered the deck?" She continued, her voice still all-too-gleeful, "Did your hack have yer little warning talk over the over-arching ship's medical alert, too? Tha's some pro level code slingin', ri' there. You run unit tests, too?"<br/><br/>It felt good to let some of that internal fuming vent. C'Tara herself had admitted to knowing the ensigns were there- but she hadn't noticed that her little announcement failed to announce? To Aster, the caitian came across as having no remorse, taking no responsibility, that it was<em>ok</em>that she broke a legitimate rule because the caitian had accounted for all the possible consequences. That she- brilliant and in control- hadn't accounted for all the possible consequences was not her fault, though, clearly.<br/><br/>Aster had already met brass like that, before and during the war, and brass like that got people like Aster killed.
