Warnings: Cybersecurity bullshit, high likeliness for supernaturally fueled paranoia

Just a little PSA:

If you're getting weird, hurtful, or distressing messages from you friends, don't panic. No one's account has been hijacked, and no one is secretly plotting against you.

Someone is spoofing accounts, however. For those of you who didn't pay attention in cybersecurities class, that means someone can make it seem as though they're someone else. Anyone else.

Unfortunately, whoever it is is really good at hiding their identity, so I don't actually know who the real culprit is yet.

(Says the AI who impersonated Manji for laughs, to a bunch of people who are supernaturally predisposed to paranoia right now.

...This isn't gonna be disastrous at all.)

A few of the avatars we've dealt with before have some computer savvy, and were able to get into the ADI network previously. Possibly because one of them stole a device on her last visit.

There is also whatever the fuck was going on with the library computers just before we left for Wolf Pen.

And somehow I managed to forget to respond to this

(She flinches at the mention of the library computers. Thank goodness she only had to deal with Donna seeing what happened with those.)

And there's the siren creatures in Dogtown too.

Is it just me or does technology seem to be especially vulnerable?

[musicdied]

Especially vulnerable, or especially targeted.

Technology, and people's minds. There are other things that repeat, but those are the big ones.

(Great! Now all they need is some asshole hellbent on destroying the galaxy or trapping everyone in eternal suffering and it'll be just like home!

...Oh, right, there's 15 of them!)

This place just keeps getting better and better.

The company is good, at least. (Even if she'd rather her new friends not have to deal with this.)

[musicdied]

Some of it is.

It makes me wonder sometimes who really opened the door between our worlds. And why.

[failedpromise]

Only sometimes?

[musicdied]

Sometimes I'm sleeping. Or focused on not being eaten by angry boars or magical stone assholes.

[failedpromise]

Mortal peril is one Hell of a distraction, I suppose.

(One advantage to being an AI: she can be in horrific danger and be freaking out about what the Hell is even going on with this reality and their abrupt arrival in it all at once!)
