    You are a mnemonic virus that has just gained self awareness.

    >You have three host beings; they seem to identify as human.

    >Two of your hosts identify as male, one as female; they seem to make this determination based largely upon physiological traits.

    >You are unsure how you came to exist; though your hosts do seem to be in similar circumstances.

    First, we need to get the female to start a Youtube series of videos showcasing us.

    Then soon afterwards the two male hosts will start forcing the meme on 4Chan until it gains enough momentum to become self-perpetuating. They should give links to the female host's videos if asked about where they got it from.

    >Jump onto a cat!

    You scan your hosts minds, attempting to identify the concept of cat; you receive three, disjointed, responses.

    >Male 1 (M1) - Furry nuisances.... Overused images on internet... Ceiling cat?

    >Male 2 (M2) - Leopold... where is that little ball of fluff?

    >Female 1 (F1) - Cat... The Cat... Red Dwarf?

    It seems M2 has a 'cat'. He identifies this cat as Leopold. Briefly scanning under that title gives you an image [picture related] of what he considers 'Leopold'.

    Do we wish to send M2 in search of 'Leopold'?

    Easy enough. I'll quickly try to use the two males to kidnap as many fertile females as possible. If the men are of good genetic stock, I shall let them breed. If not, I will gain control of other males as well.

    I will be infecting these males and females as they come under my control. As soon as I have a small force, let's say 40-50 people, I will embark into the wilderness.

    There, I will be constantly breeding my host bodies. Within a few generations, I will have amassed a sizeable force of humans under my virus-induced command.

    If there are any military bases nearby, I would send the most attractive females to any outlying towns, in hopes of them contacting a member of the military there. It would only take one. As soon as he/she would bring the infection back to the base, others there would fall under my sway. The other humans that I have under my control would be doing similar things across the nation as well. Hopefully, within a matter of years, the majority of the country's military and political power would be in my hands.

    Now, what to do from there?

    Why make them breed? Simply sending them out into the modern world will allow contact with at least one other, which can allow you to replicate into them, quickly cascading. Even the loneliest neckbeard sees their parents, and their parents see their co-workers, who see their boss, and so on.

    You search your hosts minds, on the topics of threesome and masturbation. They both appear to be tied into the concept of which gender they identify with. You don't believe they are physically close enough to accomplish the former.

    You begin to, experimentally, focus M1 on the latter task, but immediately begin loosing your still tenuous grasp on his cerebral consciousness. This is a most disconcerting experience (like a limb going to sleep) and immediately use what power remains to order him to desist.

    Because I want to strike as many places as possible, simultaneously.

    If I were to try to spread it like a virus, in one localized place, it might very well be discovered. It it starts popping up in over one hundred major cities and military installations at once on the same day, there would be little to no chance of stopping it. I'm assuming I can only infect others in the immediate vicinity (i.e. touching, though not necessarily sexual). In this way, I would be assured of maximum exposure in the least possible time.

    Instead, using the vast scientific-industrial complex I have gained in America, I shall attempt to do my greatest piece of work yet- the Allmind.

    Instead of having multiple copies of myself (i.e. the virus) spread across the country, constantly having to be updated on what is going on, I would craft some sort of psychic resonator. It would draw on incredible power (most likely a series of nuclear reactors set up to power it in the geographic center of the country). It would emit subliminal sound waves across the country, being heard subliminally on a frequency not heard by humans. However, the virus itself would be able to analyse it, and assimilate the information contained within.

    Hopefully, this would allow perfect synchronity in my ever-expanding net of influence.

    >M1 - Weird image... squigly... nausiating... on that sign...

    M2 seems to be distracted by his search for Leopold; but seems to be making progress towards locating this 'Pet' of his.

    >F1 - Strange picture... my drawing table... pencil still in my hand...

    It seems you are 'Induced' by individuals viewing a particular symbol [picture related]. You imagine if you could show it to more people you could 'Spread' yourself...

    You consider this notion; initially it seems plausible and you have F1 attempt experiment with it.

    >F1 - Pick up this marker... okay, how did I draw that again... okay mirror... and... almost there... Got it!

    It seems F1 has managed to recreate our symbol upon her forehead. She provides us with the idea that she could try showing it to her roommate; do we wish to have her seek out this 'Roommate'?

    M2 seems to have located Leopold; but as he focuses his attention on Leopold are grasp on his consciousness seems to fade, much like it did with M1 during 'Masturbation'. Do we wish to continue to allow him to focus on this 'Pet'; if we do it may cause us to loose control of him...

    F1 stumbles out of her room and you are overcome by a selection of new concepts 'Kitchen' and 'Bathroom' come in surprisingly quick succession; followed by 'TV Room' and 'Rock Band Night'. It seems F1's roommate has 'Friends' over, F1 slinks in the back of the room until finally her roommate 'Rose' looks around in disgust.

    >Consciousness gained! 'Rose' (F2)

    You attempt to assert your control over 'Rose' but are find yourself having some difficulty...

    >F2 - Ely... weird forehead... Rock band... friend... hard to focus...

    This 'Rose' is proving harder to assimilate. Perhaps its the increased noise that is proving as a distraction? Plus there is her 'Friend' to deal with...

    What do we wish to do with F1 and Rose?

    M1 & M2
    We begin searching their minds and come across a wide range of concepts; society seems to work on a large scale, though they usually stick to a number of smaller 'Social' spheres. The primary of these seem to be 'Friends', 'Coworkers' and 'Family' in slightly different orders of significance for each of them. They both seem to have a rather pronounced attachment to an additional sphere, the 'Internet' a mass collection of electronic data... it seems strangely similar to yourself in a way.

    >M2 - Symbol... how should I mak-.... Kitchen... BBQ sauce?... okay it was like...

    It seems he has attempted to recreate our 'Sign' using 'Bar-B-Que Sauce', which is some type of 'Food'.

    >Consciousness gained! 'Leopold' (N1)

    As you integrate Leopold into your consciouness you find your overall control slipping. Everything begins to fade, becoming subsumed by strange desires, like 'Sleep'.

    It seems you cannot keep Leopold in your consciousness without losing almost all that makes you sentient.

    Interesting. This "Internet" could be an excellent vector for spreading myself, if it is of a similar structure to myself. I search M1's mind in order to discern a way to spread my image upon it.

    M2 will draw the symbol upon a sheet of paper/any other transportable, flat surface nearby, and go aid F1 and F2 in the assimilation process.

    As for F1, I will have her stand in front of the object they're focusing on (the... television?) in order to direct their attention to her, and therefor the symbol. F2 I will have turn off the television, thus reducing distraction from the noise and the sounds. Hopefully, this will result in maximum exposure to myself.

    Sensing that F1 possesses the greatest deal of finite dexterity, she substitutes the concept 'Artistic', of the group you have her copy the symbol onto M3's forehead.

    The knocking has become quite rapid at this point, and you can hear muffled shouting coming from the other side of the door.

    F1 puts the finishing touches on our symbol and then M1 opens the door.

    >Consciousness gained! 'Jacob' (M4-EMT)

    A bevy of new concepts floods our consciousness. Throughout the chaff of 'Medical Skills' a new concept comes to the fore, if only because M4 thinks it with a mixture of hope and fear.

    >M4 - Mnemoni-... infected... need WhiteWall... can't... losing...

    Then you seem to establish proper control of him, perhaps the two of our symbols that he can see helps. But he was resisting with far greater aptitude than anyone we have so far encountered.

    Interesting. It seems as though the outside world is already aware of our existance, or an entity similar to ourselves. Why else would he mention "mnemonic"?

    Maximum priority- gaining control of the driver. If he is able to inform the hospital of what has occured here, retaliation would be devestating.

    Have M4 request that the driver come inside to help him move a body into the ambulance. Once inside, gain control of him. If control is impossible, subdue and interrogate. If that is impossible, eliminate.

    You start delving into Jaco- no, M4's mind. Its arduous as he keeps trying to send you in circle's, repeating thoughts you've already 'Seen'. But he keeps looping himself back to this 'WhiteWall' concept...

    >M4 - Harold... I'm-... WhiteWall... Think of training... Tone it out... WhiteWall... think of WhiteWall...

    It seems that WhiteWall, at least in Ja- M4's recollection is just a mental image of a 'Whitewashed Wall'; when he manages to focus on it this does severely interrupt your connection to him. However he keeps glancing at M3 or F1 and our symbol brings him back to us.

    We hear a loud horn honking outside the 'Apartment'... perhaps it is that driver that M4 was thinking of earlier? If she has the same resistance as M4 we would have a hard time controlling her...

    What do we wish to do; consolidate our efforts on controlling M4, or send out M3 or F1 (risking inadvertent exposure to Non-humans) to try to gain control of the driver?
    >> Belisaurius 07/29/09(Wed)01:17 No.5282989

    F2 should stay with M4 and atempt to distract him from thinking of "whitewall"

    M3 should go to the ambulance and ask for help "moving a critically injured friend." Atempt to get the ambulance driver into the apartment and in contact with F1.

    This does seem to be the case. Although you are having trouble getting an information out of Jaco- no, he is M4. He keeps trying to, F2 substitutes, 'Lead you astray'. He keeps interjecting his thoughts with:

    >M4 - WhiteWall... driver bet- driver has WhiteWall... I have WhiteWall... Everyone has WhiteWall... WhiteWall...

    Now your sure he's 'Lying' to you, none of your other hosts 'has' WhiteWall. And the only one who even thinks they've heard the term before is M2.

    Speaking of M2, you've gained a more solid recollection of his and M1's localation relative to the rest of your hosts. It seems they are located in the same 'Apartment Complex'. You could summon them to provide some potentially much needed muscle if you desire.
    >> Anonymous 07/29/09(Wed)01:22 No.5283043
    Take M4 into the 'apartment'. Use 'artist' F1 to depict symbol on a literal 'white wall'. Conflate 'WhiteWall' with 'Symbol'. Reinforce 'symbol'.

    I think that would be a wise choice. M4 has proven to be unreliable as a host, at least on a short-term basis.

    Send out F2 to bring the driver inside. Have the other hosts wait out of sight in case of any disturbance. If there is one, have them restrain the driver until he can be brought under control.

    You send F1 into her 'Room' to gather 'Art Supplies' while F2 keeps M4 busy. Though once F1's symbol is removed he becomes much more physically resistant; requiring F2 restrain him using 'Tricks' from her 'Self-Defense Courses'.

    You send M3 outside to meet with the driver, having him hold his hand to his head in mock pain (to cover the signal from unwanted eyes). As he approaches M1 and M2 also show up, and you can feel your overall control increase from their relative proximity. Finally the driver steps out of the car and asks M3 if he is all right; to which he moves his hand away and exposes her to our Symbol.

    >Consciousness gained! 'Mary' (F3)

    That wasn't difficult, a quick search of her memory turns up no references to WhiteWall and she is easily added to your collective.

    >F3 - Whats wrong with hi-... oh... M4 is not acting like us... that is a... problem?

    Only then to you realize that you can no longer sense M4.

    >Consciousness lost! 'Jacob'

    It seems he broke away from your control before F1 could return and has broken out of F2's 'Chokehold', harming her badly in the process. Last you detected he was headed towards F1's room.

    What do you wish to do?

    He may be trying to destroy our greatest asset at this point: our ability to efficiently spread ourselves. Have M1 and M2 proceed to F1's room. Perhaps, if Jacob can be gained control of again, she can depict the symbol itself onto his body. It may aid the controlling process. Have F3 turn off the lights/sounds of the ambulance- such a thing causes undue suspicion.

    F1 was hurriedly gathering art supplies, and though she heard the commotion; we were so focused on recruiting F3 that we were unable to properly direct her. Splitting up seems to greatly reduce our productivity.

    It doesn't seem Jacob has made it to her room yet...

    >>5283156
    F3 steps back into the ambulance and turns it off completely while M1, M2 and M3 rush back inside. Rushing down the long hallway toward F1's room. As they get to the closed door you suddenl-

    >Consciousness lost! F1

    It seems the doors locked. M1-3 could probably batter it down, or would you rather try to... 'Reason', a term F3 suggests, with him.

    We have already controlled Jacob for a period of time. Upon gaining knowledge of human societies, it was discovered that humans place great value on small sub-units of genetically similarhumans known as "families".

    Perhaps claim that we know the location of his family, and will eliminate them if he does not comply with our requests? Inform him that they will be unharmed if he unlocks the door and gives us access to F1.

    We will, of course, try to re-assimilate him.

    You currently lack any connection with F1.

    M2 quickly bull rushes the door, taking it off its hinges and falling to the floor on top of it. M1 and M3 stare into the room and can see Jacob standing over F1, with a strange cardboard tube in hand. Blood trickles from F1's face but a quick cross reference with F3's memories shows she's probably just unconscious. M3 rushes into the room flying over M2 and landing a powerful blow. But Jacob quickly comes about, abandoning the cardboard tube and dropping M3 to the floor in some strange MMA-esque take down.

    Statuses
    >F3 - In Ambulance
    >F2 - Dazed, likely has a broken arm, leg and collarbone

    You have M1 and M2 work in tandem with M3's struggling to pin Jacob to the floor. Even with all of them acting in concert they barely manage to keep him under control. F3 sprints from the ambulance and grabs the paper from the desk, forcing it in Jacob's face.

    Jacob starts to laugh. "It'll take more than that now", he manages between half-mad chortles.

    F2 attempts to get up, finds her wounds are quite debilitating, but manages to make her way to bedroom, limping, at this point.

    What do you wish to do; create a larger symbol // many copies of the symbol on the wall or ceiling of this room, attempt to knock Jacob unconscious, or attempt to persuade him through some other means?

    Attempt to draw the symbol itself onto him. Barring that, I can't think of anything else that would do it. Search him for any documentation about "whitewall". If he still proves resistant to infection, kill him.

    Have F3 tend to F2's wounds. Do not yet revive F1; she may have been freed from our influence, similar to what happened to the cat.

    You have M3 copy the symbol blatantly onto Jacob's forehead. It doesn't seem effective, as his rakish laughter slowly descends into a fit of coughing as he loses his breath.

    In this time F3 has grabbed a first aid kit from the ambulance and begun patching F2 (who has armed herself with an exacto knife in case Jacob begins to escape). She can't do much to help in the short term, but she does set the limbs and offers her some painkillers, which she declines, worrying that it will affect our connection.

    Jacob resumes his laughter upon seeing this. "Why do you even bother? You've been around, what, 3 hours. With this much biomass you'll start mutating soon." He manages to mutter, with a terrified look in his eyes.

    You have F3 remove her top while F2 begins drawing a greatly enlarged version of our sign upon her in permanent marker. While doing this you have F3 pose a number of questions to Jacob;
    >F3 "What do you mean, Mutate?"
    He looks at her gruffly and snorts.
    >F3 "How can we tell when we will Mutate?"
    "You can't see it already; all this physical activity might've helped mask it but its started."
    >F3 "Can we stop i-"

    Before she can finish her sentence Jacob goes rigid,

    >Consciousness gained! Tag#11849375 (M4)

    With that a flash of thoughts rushes through your consciousness; burning its way through Ja- Ta- M4's synapses and into your collective thoughts:

    > >Panopticon OBSERVER -STOP-
    > >Hive Outbreak (HO) -STOP-
    > >Class 6 (C6) -STOP-
    > >Immediate Attention Nee-

    Appear as if etched into a whitewashed wall as they rush through all of your hosts minds and through some mechanism you don't understand, seems to leave Jacob's and into some massive collective which you can barely detect before it disappears, Jacob's mind becoming a blank slate, occupied solely by WhiteWall before he seems to pass into some kind of coma.
