Fool's Gold (The Wandering Engineer) - Plot & Excerpts
Firefly looked over to Sprite. "I'm a ship AI, I don't have the coding subroutines of Sprite," the AI sniffed. "Bit of a tiff?" Irons asked amused. They'd been at it three days. In computer time that was a virtual life time. They should have a plan of action but he hadn't seen one cross his desk yet. "Something like that." Sprite answered giving the other AI a glance. "Well knock it off. You each have your own unique abilities, so use them." He sat back. "So, again, how goes the cores?" "Too soon to tell. We had to chop off the first two thousand three hundred and five iteration’s in the early budding stage. Fuentes is coming along. We're using what's left of the core and the hardwired firmware as a template." Irons raised an eyebrow. "You had to nip them in the bud?" he asked, amused once more. Fuentes had made it to the station two days ago and crews were swarming all over her. She didn't need her AI fully functional yet, but it would help speed matters along. "Exactly. Or in this case, more of a preventive tumor extraction," Sprite grimaced.
