[So if some of you haven't seen Murderbot yet - which isn't surprising, it's been absolutely keeping to itself as much as possible - you've now seen it. It's staring at the video feed with a slight frown, hand half-blocking the view]

All right, this should-

[And as it speaks? The words are popping in around it. Sort of like disjointed subtitles. Its eyes widen imperceptibly, then narrow just as much as its frown deepens.]

That's not supposed to-

[It doesn't actually say those ones aloud- but they pop in anyway. Its frown turns in to a scowl as other words fill the feed - we're talking floating sentences ranging from expressions of annoyance, to is that raw binary? - before the entire message cuts off.]

Magic, huh?

[ If they've all been isekaied here there could be like twenty different magic systems in play, not to mention not-quite-magic-definitely-not-normal stuff like the Metaverse. This could be a lot more complicated than any of them are anticipating, if the ICPs and SCAs are indeed some kind of magitech hybrid thing.

Either way, she's got her credentials to talk up for whoever's watching, and there's enough replies flying around in all directions to know that everyone's watching. ]

How about somebody who's a tech specialist, and good with supernatural stuff?

Yeah. An' I know we got a couple of scientists that are into both magic an' tech. So I think y'all could figure it out.

But I'm sayin', comin' from a fleet that's usually a patchwork of tech from a buncha planets and cultures, when you fixin' somethin' like that you gotta do all kindsa side-eyein' or else it'll blow up in your face.

Magic ain't my strong suit, though. [So all he can really do is offer the observation and his vague experience patching incongruous shit together.]

Hell, there's a li'l' guy here what hopped out of an ICP at me like he was ridin' through it. So there's some kinda network connectin' everythin' that I don't get.

Good, you should be helpful for building the tech-magic bridge. I've done some stuff like that, but all my magic creations that interfaced with computers used some really hacky solutions that involved reading the 'intent' of the computer as well as that of its user. I knew some literal computer wizards, though. Anyways, having someone who can handle both should help with building a better interface than what I just mentioned.
