Someone has been thinking...

Oh, wise super eight ball...What is the command structure for ComCen now? If T answers to Alex, does that mean all of the GEM operatives answer to Jed and Alex? If Jed is 9 and Alex is 1, who's in charge of who?? Also, why is the dude named Walrus? Does he look like a Walrus?

Well, I wouldn't say that T answers to Alex. She is, after all, the chief of operations for GEM. The merger is a complicated one, in which, T agrees to work in the capacity of Number 1. Oh, it's a looooong story; I'm sure it'll bore you to tears. I mean, haha, two Number 1s. Dudes, you do the math.

GEM operatives answer to T. And T's superiors. As for Numbers 9 and 1...again, you'll have to decide. The duties are simple: Number 1 begins the mission and Number 9 ends it. They are almost equally important, don't you think? The COS Commandos are brought together under a experiment called Project Virus and yeah, they aren't as independent as you think. No one is, except, of course, if you're the Super Surfing Magic Eight Ball.

The thing to remember is this world--it's never black and white, and the hats are greyer than you think. You aren't called a Virus because you're a harmless little thing, you know. Viruses can be deadly. Viruses infiltrate without being seen. Viruses create havoc from within. And man-manipulated viruses are the most dangerous. Good question, anonymous--who's controlling the Viruses? And HOW? With WHAT? Heh heh. Here's your thinking cap back.

The Walrus? Who knows why he's called The Walrus! Maybe it's because he looks so smug and fat, you don't think he's that dangerous. What are real walruses like? I don't go surfing in their territory much. Let me know what you think when you meet the guy.

It's time I shut up, yo. You're getting smarter by the question, sandpipers. I'm enjoying the challenge of being cooler than Mother Prog and still keep you wanting more. Back tomorrow for the next question, wavelets.
