Something establishing connection, displaying warnings, disconnecting and reconnecting. It stops for a moment and there's a blinking cursor. There follows a delay. More warnings, then it switches to audio... And a raspy, half-mechanical Austrian accent is relayed.]
Sarah Connor...?

Doctor Hannibal Lecter... Your designated warden is indisposed.

[Private, Video] LOL I forgot they DO sort of have robots...

Who do you work for, Mister Golem?

Are you safe?

My termination allowed his escape. And his future wife's.
The T-X's dimensional resurrection was not anticipated...

Re: Audio
Date: 2012-04-01 12:58 am (UTC)It's unlikely you'll remain here long... It's important you create a message for your brother. Something you think he should know. He'll be able to bring you back.
Re: Video:
Date: 2012-04-01 01:04 am (UTC)He'll benefit from additional messages of emotional encouragement.

Re: Audio

It doesn't matter if I approve or not. Nothing but his goddamn safety matters.

You think like one of us.
Re: Video:
Date: 2012-04-01 05:35 am (UTC)Yes, you're fucking tools to be used as whatever you're programmed to do. Skynet sends you fuckers to kill us, the Resistance reprograms you to protect John, John teaches you shit, and you wind up terminated protecting him.
I think like you? Jesus. If I didn't think like you assholes sometimes, John would be dead.

Date: 2012-04-01 08:37 am (UTC)[The revelation about bargaining for safety is a contradiction to causality. It needs to ask the next question.]
His survival until when?

Until he's old and his kids are grown, past the war, into a better future. Shit like that. Seems fair to ask.

Re: Video:
Date: 2012-04-02 03:55 am (UTC)Or had that been false input? Data introduced by John's future wife? A ploy... Something she knew the younger John would hear. Needed to hear... In order to do something.
Too many variables.
And no obligation to reveal it, either. No need to disrupt her progress. Whatever would be, would be.]
I won't be back.
[With that, the Terminator... Her son's prospective killer and saviour, both, ends the connection.]
