Thanks to the #writingcommunity for your support for #SEAsianPit! I was hesitant to join since I’m not officially back in the trenches yet (hopefully in a few days), but I really wanted to be part of this celebration. Proud of how many of us showed up, and I hope to see even more next yr!

Inspiration and comp titles include MONK & ROBOT, SERVICE MODEL, ACTIVATION DEGRADATION, MAL GOES TO WAR, and ALL SYSTEMS RED.

Opening lines: My feed notified me of a message in the security request channel. [Threat: Datalifter - T1 Location: ^Square F0 Request: Retrieve and disintegrate lifted pleasure vids Requester: vidshop_clerkbot] This was the fifth time that clerkbot had requested my assistance for the same issue at the same exaggerated threat level. Any level 1 threat it reported was technically a level 2. The difference was whether I walked or ran.

A rogue bot struggling with its newfound sentience must decide between the safety of hiding or the meaningful danger of helping the activist group that hacked it.
