"Ammunition..? Oh... Almost forgot I'm a weapon now... Th-thanks... Let's keep going." Kyrie became pensive as she resumed walking, absent-mindedly browsing the internet and downloading music from the 21st century.

"Nothing all too dangerous." Manhattan spoke as they neared a nearly empty room save for a few pipes overhead. "Just don't get involved with certain activities and use them."

Emar wasn't sure where to go next aboard the ship. He knew there were three ships located there in open space. Inter traveling had never interested him. He wondered if he could find more like him, then brushed off that thought. He would probably do better without them than with. America was a wide enough ship, so surely he could entertain himself for the time being. He was wrong, and found himself confused as he passed people. What the hell was he supposed to do now? Become a space explorer or something.
If he had emotions, he would have probably sighed in some sort of frustration. This was entirely boring. Solitude in general. More suffocating than fun than what he envisioned. He wanted to laugh at the super weapon he was supposed to be. He passed another window of swirling empty space. Like a wire that has been cut, Emar snapped, punching through the glass with superhuman strength.
"This is complete bull." He mutter afterwards, brushing past any surprised onlookers. What was existence if you were meant to be alone, feared and hated? One thing troubled him. What was his existence supposed to amount to?
Emar stopped upon the hall, staring aimlessly. He felt lost, swallowed into a sea of wonder. He turned towards the broken window, ignoring the chatter, then glanced at the door to his quarters. He wasn't tired, he couldn't feel it. He swept into the room, heading towards his favorite selection of cloaks. A pale colored one. He grasped the fabric, not able to feel how it felt. Madness, complete and utter madness! The door slid shut behind him, locking him into a room of darkness.
He wanted to remain in here forever. Escape from the voices that blurred outside his room filled with laughter. He glanced at the chemicals. A broad strike, an they smashed into the wall, breaking. Pulling the cloak on, Emar sat in silence, peering into the air. He said nothing, for there was nothing. The chemicals dripped down the wall, a replica of what he once heard was called a human tear.
"Welcome to insanity."

He took a look around the room and spotting the bed walked over and lade down. (Ok surveillance sweep.) he let out a thin tendril of bacteria, no thicker than a strand of hair. He then swept it over every surface in the room...

(Ok the room is clean. Now to plan. They stated that there is food rationing so thats gonna make expanding the swarm slow going. Best look for alternative resources.) he extends the tendril into a ventilation duct. Worming around the shaft he finds that all directions are blocked by filters, filters with maintenance sensors. (Blast no dice. Hnmm maybe the plumbing.) he moves the tendril down the sink drain. There he finds valves regulating the flow, that and some mildew. (No luck here either. At least I can digest the mildew. Hnm doors are air tight and locks are electronic. Don't have enough nodes to hack the modern network. Guess I'll have to go out for a walk and look around.) that thought finished he retracted his tendril and stood up. (Now how long should I wait before I make the call?)

"Huh? I- Oh, you're trying to be useless, that's what you mean. Yeah, that figures," she scoffed.

"We have arrived." Manhattan spoke as they entered the large expanse.

"No denial. Guess I'm right. So... what now? I don't see anything to train with or anything. How am I even supposed to train to do stuff we know nothing about?" I wonder if this is where he lives. He seems like he wouldn't furnish the place or anything, so it's plausible. No one else would live here and leave it like this, but I guess being a LOTUS enables some crazy stuff.

"No. There's no instruction manual or anything. Not unless there's supposed to be a physical booklet. I've got info on the specs, like what I showed you. I'm also loaded up with plenty of programs. Lots of niche stuff too, like a VR shooting range simulation. But nothing telling me how to pop a gun out of my arm or anything." Kyrie looks at her arms and asks "Is it just supposed to be like moving a muscle?"

Emar stood up from his chair, moving towards his door. His hood was still on, and he prepared the mysterious look it have him. He needed out, and immediately. He opened his door, and stepped out. It was time to search for some fellows. Even if he didn't want to.

"Of course you wouldn't. I guess I'll just try stuff then." Probably just move different parts like muscles, I guess. Starting from her head, it only took a few seconds before she managed to get something to happen. "Oh! I got a transparent command-line interface to open in my eye. Guess I don't need that light-up display then. This'll be handy for recording. Next..." A few more seconds, and she was spitting, noticeably disgusted. "Eww, what the hell was that? What's happening with the command-line..? Release T, calciseptine? I guess that's what that is. And apparently there's unique commands in here. Let's try the index... Huh. Well, there's lots of these 'release' commands, with different chemicals, and different locations. Unsheathe, one through eight? Those're the only different commands. Let's check them out." Eight blades emerged from her wrists, over her knuckles, as she went through the unsheathe commands in succession. "Underwhelming," she said, before sheathing them.
After going through the different 'release' commands, she found that some of the substances she released were acidic after accidentally burning the right sleeve of her sweater, and that she could secreted any of her chemicals from almost any pore on her body. "Well, I guess that's everything." Sighing, she grumbles, "Even though I'm supposed to be a genetically-modified superweapon, I'm no more dangerous than a venomous bear with computer skills. Great." She looked up at Manhattan and asked "So, what now, big guy?"

"That's... boring. I'm going to look at furniture for my apartment, and learn a little about the modern era," she stated, before sitting down and pulling up her display. "Is this where you live, or just one of the places you like?"

"How dull. Why not liven it up a little, personalize it? Or at least have some sort of entertainment, or furnishings? I don't even see anything to sustain you. How do you survive?"

"I have no digestive system, and thus no need for food." Manhattan replied. "I am more machine than man."
