"That's to be expected, sir," said the XO. "After all, we are all one hive mind and he's on his own."
"Yes, I feel terrible for him."
"I know that you do. Only too well."

Not all my mods are beneficial. A few malicious mosquitos are trying to hack into my CNS. They tickle. I crush them in my hands, and sprinkle their metal bones. A pleasure #fiend appears between blinks. She's penetrated my defenses, her tendrils warping my thoughts.

Suspect
My upstairs neighbor
Might be
Some kind of #fiend
I just heard
A scuffle
Punctuated
By a scream
So I find
My courage
Ring his bell
& now I’m cursed
For what I found
Ain’t murder—
But horror
So much worse
His one man show
I’m forced to watch
Endlessly
Rehearsed

If he thought of them as something less, or more than what they were, to could lose him blind vengeance and not justice.
