Log - OTA! - What’s the difference between a corpse and a shirt?

Who: Everyone.
When: Wednesday evening, Jan 11th
Where: A rented out bar, downtown.
Summary: The wake for George Milton.
Warnings: N/A (will update as needed)

If anyone of the forcibly kidnapped to Gloucester deserved to be remembered, it was George Milton. In many ways, he was the best of them. He had been kind. He had always been willing to help and lend a hand. Unlike some whose first choice was violence (because what else was there), he had chosen to forgo that route and had come up with a much more clever solution. The solution saved lives.

It had not felt right to have a formal service for him. To put it simply, he was not a formal person. And so after much calling around, a bar had been found where they could rent out the entire place before business got too busy. It was just for a couple of hours. People could come and say nice things about George. It's what he deserved after all.

So come on in, have a beer or two, and sit a spell. Maybe you'll feel like sharing a story about George or maybe you're just there to pay your respects. There's a break in the weather, the clouds only filling up half of the nighttime sky. No acid snow for tonight.

Cortana sighs. "To be honest, I wish I'd known I'd have to give up most of my ability to feel touch before I signed up for this." It might have actually deterred her.

"But ...it's nice to not feel the hunger anymore. Especially now that I've realized just how much it was influencing me." It might not be visible on the surface, but Cortana has noticed the change. The idea that the Eye had such a grip on her ...it's chilling.

Cortana shrugs. "I have models of the required neural strucures." She was made from a human brain. Is it really so hard to believe that light could mimic the necessary physical components?

"I could technically feel even before I had a body, I just didn't have anything to feel with."

"Still, you're right. It is a relief not to deal with that anymore. At least now I'm not feeling hunger I can't satisfy."
