PowerBabe™ 9000's killswitch was engaged, and Mistress Fannypack's android lover was removed from this existence. The Shet'agh were not completely victorious; PB9000's consciousness was splintered, not destroyed. The killswitch was unable to do more than disable physical functioning. Now mechanically dead, the android had ample time to discover the properties of his new coalescing swarm of consciousness. The longer time goes on, the more unstable a future containing a reunion becomes, soon it may become just as gaseous as the blankscape's inhabitants.
