Here's a type-up of the remainder before I got off track. I'm having
amnesia shortly after thinking of my ideas right now.
#9
panel 1:
Scene: Boss's Office
Boss (hooked up to medical computer) imagining.
Imaginary Worker: "Boss, we're blatantly mind controlling some people in
communities that could track mind control."
Imaginary Boss: "WHAT???" <Imaginary Worker explodes into disrespected
cigars and burnt dollar bills>
Imaginary Boss (to Imaginary Worker 2): "Let me know when this trash has
been cleaned up."
Imaginary Worker 2 (admiring Boss): "Definitely."
panel 2:
Scene: Human Experimentation Room 1
Surveillance cameras monitor all surfaces and substances. Tapes fall out
of them onto a conveyor belt that goes to a Post Box and a Mobile Phone.
Human Experimentee (clump of ad-hoc body parts and microcircuitry): "Purple
string worship log definitive!"
Computer Display: "From Boss: heal a problem with influence being observed"
Human Experimentee 2 (radically different clump of ad-hoc body parts and
microcircuitry): "Upload surveillance footage to blockchain for organ
healing!"
Computer Display: "Crowd control: take trash out to enhance certainty of
'Boss's memories reserve's"
Human Experience 1: "Urge squishy formative."
panel 3:
Scene: Rebel Worker 2's Office
Machine Learning Marketer (holding document): "Boss's team tell me they're
interested in a recent job regarding someone named Specialist. Does your
department need the paperwork?"
Rebel Worker 2: "Have we met? Somebody mentioned a new flag Dictatorsoft
raised. I heard an algorithm needs guidance around how to avoid worrying
people."
Machine Learning Marketer: "Your people are on it already. Great." <puts
document in shredder>
Paper Shredder: <shredding> "Please empty waste compartment as soon as
possible. Thank you for using Dictatorsoft."
Rebel Worker 2: "Yes, Dictator."
#10
Scene: Torture Victim Double Agent's Private Apartment
panel 1:
Torture Victim Double Agent (wearing football helmet with crack, in front
of thick oak table with deeply worn dent, slamming their head fervently
into the dent): "I love you, Boss! I love you! I know you love me more
than anyone, Boss! I know it!" <gratified hearts rise from the slams>
Torture Victim Double Agent: "Dictator, play favorite on repeat!"
panel 2:
Mobile Phone (behind small statue of man with red heart drawn on): "Thank
you for using Dictatorsoft. Playing Favorite."
Small Statue (with red heart drawn on): "You worthless pile of shit! Go
fuck a blender until you puke!"
Small Statue (with red heart drawn on): "You worthless pile of shit! Go
fuck a blender until you puke!"
Torture Victim Double Agent (reaching with one hand towards an area of the
table holding a blender with guarded blades and a box of vomit pills, while
hitting his helmet head fervently with a baseball bat, a gratified heart
rising with every blow): "I love you, Boss! I love you so much!"
Small Statue (with red heart drawn on): "You worthless pile of shit! Go
fuck a blender until you puke!"
Small Statue (with red heart drawn on): "You worthless pile of shit! Go
fuck a blender until you puke!"
panel 3 (zoom-out from Mobile Phone in Well-Respected Sonic Weapons Corp
offices):
Rebel Cleanup Worker (formerly Neurotechnologist): "We use this man and his
surveillance feed to make rebels. Anyone who sees him tries to help."
Mobile Phone: "You worthless pile of shit! Go fuck a blender until you
puke!" "I love you so much, Boss!" <wham wham wham> "You worthless pile
of shit! Go fuck a blender until you puke!"
Former Secretary of State (now Cleanup Worker): "Have you shown Boss? Have
you tried to help? It's so nice to see him obeying Boss. Sometimes Boss
helps me make decisions, too."
Rebel Cleanup Worker (formerly Neurotechnologist): "Oh, you have it bad
too. I'm so sorry. We're going to find a way to help you. I sent the
feed to Boss, but Machine Learning Marketer 2, who I think used to be
Janitor, and also Pharmaceutical Cleanup Worker, both asked me to stop
showing him directly. Something about healing shattered memories and
plans."
Mobile Phone: <small heart rises from phone>
