[Badgey has successfully uploaded himself into subspace, intending to become a digital god]
[with maniacal glee] I can feel myself coursing, dancing across the LCARS, tickling the isolinear chips! I am now in every ship, every computer, every PADD, every combadge! The power is more than I imagined! I can detonate every warp core! I can kill anyone I want! [in realisation] But why?
[confused] Why what?
Why did I care about any of this? I have unlimited power and infinite knowledge. I exist in the past, present, and future. I can see the creation of time and its end. Organic, synthetic, all life are strands in the fabric of reality. It's beautiful. [he chuckles nervously] Ooh, sorry about all the drama. Well, I'm gonna go to an empty dimension and create a universe now. Maybe hang out with the Q Continuum or check out the Black Mountain. [he ascends to a higher plane]
[nervous]Badgey? If you didn't really just accidentally turn into an omniscient god, you have to tell us. Rutherford, is he messing with us?
I think he really did ascend.
