Notes from the facility: "No more replicas peeking around corners if you don't mind" Part One.
(Internal messaging between Doctors B.C. and L.U., procured from the hard drive of Dr. L.U., senior researcher, biomechanical engineering)
L.U.: I know they said to make them intimidating, B., but Jesus. The never breaking eye contact thing. Do they all do that? I know they don't all climb walls. Seriously, no more replicas peeking around corners if you dont mind. Its insanely creepy.
B.C.: They all do it. They gotta remain undetected until they get the original alone. So yes they can climb walls, move while pressed flat against the ceiling using these little conveyors in the forearms and thighs, shorten and elongate limbs, the torso stretches, the head can flatten, they can fit in the space between a refrigerator and the wall, L. So believe me, you're only seeing yours because we want you to. ;-)
L.U.: God...Mine would probably fool G. and the boys. Everyone except my mother.
B.C.: Lol. You should see mine. We use it like those guys at DARPA use the homeless, it looks like it was on the front line in every war since Vietnam.
L.U.: DARPA...Trying to get us in trouble..;-)))
B.C.: HA, Even P. hates DARPA. They're the last ones we gotta worry about
L.U.: I know, I'm kidding. So they don't make any noise at all? I haven't heard mine other than when we were introduced and you made it...."talk"....ugh.
B.C.: Entirely silent. And now when they talk the lips move. Lol. Since we redesigned the vocal cords it's gotten much better. We have almost everyones voices in the bank now too, so it's getting close. The major ones are ready. Governors, senators, police chiefs, judges, etc.
L.U.: Wild.
B.C.: They look like completely normal people standing down here in the cavern. Engage hunting mode and they move like a spider looking for a place to hide, it almost makes me feel bad for some of the originals. They're not all horrible.
L.U.: Governors, senators, police chiefs, and judges aren't all horrible?
B.C.: Shut up :;--))
