2021.10.03 06:17 Buggi_San [Red Rising] Just finished Red Rising : Presumptions + Discussion + Predictions
Gamma gets the Laurel.Guessed this ... Ofc MC wants something and works hard for it, he is destined not to get it !!
She traces the haemanthus blossom along my collarbone in a sudden show of tenderness. She is a creature of moods. The flower is the same color as the wedding band on her finger.Just an interesting way to tell us that Darrow's hair was also red ... I am not sure we are told this before
We are lesser creatures in the grand scheme of things, but without us men of war, no one except those of Lykos would hear Eo’s song. Without our rough hands, the dreams of the pure hearts would never be builtI loved this para for some reason, this made me better grasp the futility of the world they are living in ...
“Now you understand,” Dancer says. “We are deceived.” Beyond the glass sprawls a city.I felt as betrayed as Darrow, they weren't even doing something actually vital, they could be living better lives all this time
A Gold wouldn’t have done that. But as I sit with Matteo on the shuttle as it ferries us back home, I remember the girl’s face. She blushed too.Darrow is going to like her and she is going to die isn't she ? (Thank god that didn't happen)
All my people sing of are memories. And so I will remember this death. It will burden me as it does not burden my fellow students—I must not let that change. I must not become like them. I’ll remember that every sin, every death, every sacrifice, is for freedom.After Julian is killed ... I hope Darrow retains his humanity, and what the hell is this system, if no one is safe ?
No, they follow us because Cassius is as charismatic as the sun and, in his light, the shadow I cast looks like it knows what it’s doing. It doesn’t. It, like me, was born in a mine.I am glad that he has a new tribe now, but I am afraid that Cassius is going to find out. Also, it bothers me more now that they aren't allowed to kill the other students after the Passage, but a lot are ready to !! Also, the speech given at the Institute about the other colors being better (red dexterity, green technical acumen) are noticed by the Golds and are ensuring that the progeny are also trained to ensure the status quo, it is darkly brilliant
“ Mars . A gruesome deity. You’re fit for this, aren’t you lot? Barbarity? Past centuries. Dark ages.” I don’t have a mind to be lectured by an Aureate about moralityThe irony, that the supposedly superior Golds are fighting like this ...Also is Minerva better than the other Gold houses ?
I turn to Tamara with a reasonable smile and tell her the truth. “I want Minerva off my back so I can come here and beat you, sure.” And then win the stupid game and destroy your civilization, please.Darrow's internal monologue is rarely so sarcastic, the last few words made me chuckle
I won Primus and they never gave it to me. Now I know why the Jackal will win. They are getting rid of his competition.Brilliant foreshadowing with the Laurel in the beginning, it isn't even meritocratic within Golds
Even when I am ruining their Society at the vanguard of a billion screaming Reds, they will tell their children that Darrow of Mars once clapped them on the shoulder and paid them a compliment.I hope this does happen and, Darrow getting whipped for Tactus seems overkill, but it will most definitely work
What makes the faceless boy so frightening? Is he tall? Lean? Thick? Fast? Ugly? And what gives him his reputation, his name? No one seems to know.This made me wonder if the Jackal is real, but I realised Augustus is real, so his son is probably too and there would be no point in the Proctors just being impartial
“Well, fine. If you must know, if there’s simply no other way of going about it: she is the Jackal’s twin sister.”This damn twist, I thought for a hot minute the Institute storyline will go into the next book.

These glitches have been going on for weeks. I don’t trust this slapdash trashcan server any more than the morons that created it, and if I lose one more narrative tree to these blackouts, I will brick this system myself. Habte, Saron Narrative (WW)Subject: Re: FW: A High-Priority Message for Employees

Look familiar? He-who-shall-not-be-named had the nerve to personally hand me a copy. Like it was a collector’s original. He had a marker in his hand and for a brief moment, I thought he had sniffed enough of it to go around signing them. False alarm – just high off corporate praise and the smell of his own bullshit Promotional Poster attached Alves, Brigitte**Subject: Marketing, Guest Relations (WW)
Unbelievable. How did this get past legal? This is literally the same artwork that stupid (but gifted) fanboy schmuck was peddling on the internet. Pretty fitting that corporate automatically crowns Mr. Kissass as savior when all he did was steal designs to make a poster about new ideas. Ready to tell everyone to “cultivate” these chestnuts.

Tamsin, our piracy screeners picked up a fanboy-created image for Westworld popping up. This kid’s already sold 200 of them, and this is a pretty cut-and-dry case of copyright infringement. Let’s get in there before he gets too rich off of us. Throw a cease and desist his way and scare the balls off him. O’Toole, Constance Legal, Delos DestinationsSubject: Unauthorized Westworld Art
Normally, I would say yes. But we shat the bed on that last lawsuit and our public image can’t weather another misstep. Chris Sharp, Tamsin Legal, Delos DestinationsSubject: Unauthorized Westworld Art
If you guys want to pursue legal action, I can spin it and reduce the PR blowback. A thing to consider – we’ve got a huge event coming up on October 9, so it’s not the ideal time to have bad press. We’d be in the news cycle for twice as long … especially since the kid’s poster is actually pretty good. I very much like the way the landscape seems to come from the eye, like it’s both an input and an output. Ladipo, Christian Corporate Communications, WestworldSubject: Unauthorized Westworld Art
How lovely, Christian. Let’s sit on it for a bit. Maybe we can use it. Sharp, Tamsin Legal, Delos DestinationsNew revealing research:

We did. I copied you on the chain. But some asshole in Legal gave Sizemore a 'creative consult' on promos in his last negotiation. Castillo, Verónica Quality Assurance, Guest Relations (WW)Subject: RE: RE: RE: New Narrative Promo
You've got to be fucking kidding me... This has his stink all over it. We were clear with these guys. Admissions are up, but families are down. Strategy wants a family based spot. Not some arthouse approach. Besides, Strategy is nervous that the perception of the park is just guns and sex. Big turn-off for newer guests. How about something for kids? Horses and farmers and some wholesome shit. Benson, Channing Quality Assurance, Guest Relations (WW)Subject: RE: RE: RE: RE: New Narrative Promo
That's what we asked for. But WW admin signed off on this. We need to tread lightly here. Don't want this to devolve into a corporate pissing contest. Castillo, Verónica Quality Assurance, Guest Relations (WW)Subject: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: New Narrative Promo

Hi Elsie, I’ve noticed a pattern with repaired hosts received from Livestock Management that I now believe is worth your attention. Many Body Shop techs are neglecting to properly reboot hosts to diagnostic mode, which in of itself is not of great consequence, but it does begin to chip away at our time the more it happens. I understand that the pace of getting hosts prepped and ready to go back into rotation sometimes means that things slip through the cracks, but this should not be one of those things. I imagine they would have an issue if Intake didn’t bother to fully wipe the hosts down before receiving them, so let’s be respectful of the process. Li, Henry Host Behavior (WW)Re:FW: Diagnostic

Hello, all - As you know, the Annual Costume Department giveaway is coming up. I know we all look forward to this event, and many of us enjoy sending home keepsakes to our families and friends. However – I do not believe we have addressed the institutional issues that led to last year’s riot, and I would like to suggest we do not hold the giveaway this year. It would be more appropriate if this event were cancelled by QA and not the Costume Department, because I do think many people will be disappointed. But we just can’t have that kind of disruption on our floor again; it was not only a safety concern, but also put us days behind on our usual workload. Many thanks for considering, Farrah Watkins Eddington, Michael Quality Assurance, Security (WW)POTENTIAL EMPLOYEE MISCONDUCT:
I’m about to rotate out! Since you won’t get to see my stunning face for three whole weeks, come celebrate on Manufacturing Floor B33 @ 3 am. Tell no one. Also, we MANUFACTURED a beer bong out of a horse stomach. Burn after reading! I think QA may flag stuff like this. St. Denis, Antoinette Host Manufacturing (WW)POTENTIAL EMPLOYEE MISCONDUCT:

Just a reminder that if you’re experiencing technical difficulties with your tablets and terminals, this falls under the auspices of IT, and not Behavior. Apologies if this appears obvious to most of you, understanding this distinction shouldn’t be brain surgery. But you know what is brain surgery? The job of the Behavior department. Many thanks, Elsie Elsie Hughes Host Behavior (WW)POTENTIAL NEGLECTFUL CONDUCT:
Someone left all their personal shit in Intake, and it got mixed up with the host belongings and was sent up the chain for going back into rotation. This is a bigger deal than it sounds. We almost cleaned a modern bra to go on a host, which wastes company resources. Not to mention – why was your bra in the area? Why wasn’t it in your living quarters? I don’t even know where to begin with this. Be professional, guys. Cruz, Sophia Livestock ManagementPOTENTIAL EMPLOYEE MISCONDUCT:
I’m writing to file an official complaint against the goons in the Props Department who have tried to initiate a “prank war” with Host Manufacturing. As you know, we are their direct rivals in the Delos Rugby Intramural League, and they’re trying to “kick the season off with a bang.” Last night between the hours of 4 am and 5 am, they poured blue dye into the host manufacturing liquid, which meant that my team has had to spend the entire day cleaning out the tanks. I cannot even begin to describe how backed up we are with work today. I attempted to speak to Cesar Donovan in Props, and his response was, “Blue looks more badass anyway.” Please handle, as I don’t have the patience or bandwidth. Thank you in advance. Valery Lapinski, Host Manufacturing (WW)EMPLOYEE INFRACTIONS
This is your first notice, informing you that you have failed your Living Quarters inspection and have been cited for general uncleanliness. A second review of your quarters will happen sometime over the next two weeks, and QA reserves the right to conduct this inspection without your prior knowledge. Should your quarters pass inspection during this second review, no further action will be necessary. However, should your quarters again fail to live up to the standard of a Delos employee, you will receive an official citation. Sincerely, Grace Ma Ma, Grace Quality Assurance, Human Resources (WW)POTENTIAL NEGLECTFUL CONDUCT:
Hello, all – In case you are unaware (though I can’t imagine why you would be) – it is not absolutely necessary for Intake to cut up and discard all host costumes that have been damaged parkside. The Costume Department is perfectly capable of repairing clothes that have only received minor damage, and they can even patch most bullet holes. Therefore, please only incinerate clothing that is absolutely beyond reasonable repair. Otherwise, we can all save costs by being more frugal and resourceful. With the current round of budget cuts, it would behoove us all to work together in this. I understand we’re all pressed for time, but this is important. Many thanks, Clara Hamilton Hamilton, ClaraCostuming (WW)** POSSIBLE INTER-DEPARTMENTAL CONFLICT**
Far be it from me to tell you guys how to do your jobs but – several hosts in the Bloody Benders storyline were shot in the face by a QA Security Response team in Sector 23. Some of the hosts are homicidal by design, but they cannot hurt humans. In this instance, the three hosts in question are designed to rush headlong at “victims,” but no employee was in any real danger. Just asking that you remind your team to use voice commands first and shoot as a last resort. This latest trigger-happy response has led to some unnecessary costs, since we have to now rebuild the hosts’ cortical shields from scratch. -B. Lowe Lowe, Bernard Host Behavior (WW)CORPORATE MANDATES

Hughes, Elsie Host Behavior (WW) Digital Security BreachSUBJECT: A Message from Westworld IT Security
Team: You may have heard media reports about recent attempts to breach IT security around Westworld’s digital properties and servers. As employees, we would like to make sure you have the facts about what happened and the steps we all need to take to protect sensitive Delos information. In the past couple weeks, users of online digital message boards have been looking closely at the source code behind Westworld’s digital destinations, particularly DiscoverWestworld.com, looking for details about our operations. Thankfully, those users have gleaned little, but we know they are continually watching. Considering this and the fact that code can get messy, it’s imperative all Westworld staffers take the time to comb through all public-facing code and remove any sensitive materials or links that may be inadvertently embedded within. The company does not want to take chances with exposing proprietary information. If you have any questions, contact our Data Security & Protection team. As always, please keep this information and request confidential. Westworld IT Security Delos Destinations Leaked Fall StorylinesSUBJECT: A Message from Westworld Guest Relations
