Icarus just slaps the bowl out of his hand, spilling it on the ground.

"The LA is not welcome here, especialy if they dare scout us. Tell me a good reason why I should not forcibly remove you from here."

[PrivateNomad]

 "Because this place is their only safe haven, where they can escape prejudice and danger. These three did nothing wrong in their search for a cause to fight for.
..Scout you? Surely you mean me, who is not affiliated with the LA."

[Akroma]

"You are harboring wanted criminals. This will stop. Also, no, you may not scout me regardless of who you are affiliated with."

[PrivateNomad]

 "Besides, it is not as if I was intending on scouting you. I was simply taking a stroll.
No, these people are innocent. They joined the LA a week before it fell."

[Akroma]

"The war against the LA took longer than a week though. These guys need to leave."

[PrivateNomad]

 "And where shall I safely send them?"

[Akroma]

"Not my problem. Just away. They can't stay in a city they previously bombed."

[PrivateNomad]

 "Arrange a teleportation and it shall be done, Exalted One."

[Akroma]

"Stop calling me that. Also these guys have perfectly fine feet."

[PrivateNomad]

 "But Exalted One, the path is not safe."

[Akroma]

"It's not like anyone will recognise them, if you just give them any other clothes than the stupid LA uniform. And stop calling me that"

[PrivateNomad]

 "But Exalted One, every country has every record possible on the LA. Unless I were to completely change their appearance - which I cannot - then they are not safe."

[Akroma]

"You are overestimating law enforcement scrutiny by a large amount."

[PrivateNomad]

 "I foresee their capture."

Dalia is still around the castle, brooding and generally moping about. You don't have to interact with her though, I'm just reinforcing that she's depressed so that she can overcome it later.

((ASI will probbaly exist this century, can continuously make themselves more intelligent, even past the point where they are practically gods, and will either uplift humanity into a golden age or eliminate every last one if us. Fun.))

((I don't know about that. Humans are pretty smart and we're having a terrible time making AIs. Plus intelligence isn't very objective in the first place, so designing a more intelligent AI should be hard for anybody once you've got certain basics done. Also they still need bodies to influence the world, since all of that intelligence means jack shit if they can't turn use it on something productive.

In other words, I'll believe an ASI when I see it. Because right now I doubt we'll get halfway in a couple centuries let alone one.))
