Week 6: The Citadel Coup
I. (The Illusive) Man's Reach Exceeding His Grasp

"EDI, you have a moment?"

"Certainly, Specialist Traynor. What is it?"

"Ahhhh, well... did you read the latest report by Hackett?"

"I try not to unless I am asked to, I think you organics would consider it bad form, possibly calling it 'sticking my nose in someone else's business'. Why? Would you like me to read it?"

"Maybe it's better if I tell you. It seems some Cerberus defectors took their chance during the Citadel coup and made a run for it."

"Another mistake by the Illusive Man?"

"Well, they claim they wouldn't have made it even with Cerberus stretched thin, if not for a... fortuitous attack by Collectors. Well, these are mostly soldiers, but to show their good will, they actually snagged the latest research project from their base, and brought it with them."

"Good for them, and good for us! Do we know what the Illusive Man was 'cooking up' this time?"

"EDI... Ahhhh... it seems he was trying to replicate and improve on doctor Coré's design. Another VI/AI in a human-like body, for infiltration purposes, but with better combat capabilities!"

"Interesting. And what did Hackett think?"

"Well, he mentioned that these are desperate times. They might decide to deploy some units under the aegis of the Alliance!"

"Hmmm, so soon I could have some look-alikes running around? I think the right word for how I feel would be 'flattered'... though if one of those tries to get close to Joker, she better remember my fighting capabilities include twin Thanix cannons."
