Herman had his eyes closed and was monitoring the security features of the Ministry, but soon saw Erika via the security cameras. He opened his eyes.
"Guten tag, frauline."

"Ah herr Doktor, I was going to do an equipment inspection, care to join me?" I don't bother going to the Little Sister chamber, after all it is just a facade for the real uplink equipment. I walk up two flights of steps to reach a door labeled "Kernzwei." It looks to have been repainted recently, but I open it anyways...
This room is even more massive than the Little Sister chamber, a circle 100 meters across. The cieling is ten meters tall, and gradually slopes upwards towards the center. On the floor in the center of the room is a dias with a chair off-center, and surrounding this dias are 256 towers of vacuum-tube electronics. Hanging from the cieling is an elongate pyramid, the top half of which is covered with cables running to all the towers, and from the bottom of which is one cable which threads through the floor to the room below. That cable is the only real connection to the Machine, the rest are just for life support...
Suddenly I shudder in horrid recollection, as I remember being walked into this room so many centuries ago. It is my last memory; just after my cybernetic implants had taken hold and I had been implanted with a computer program called 'Fernbedienanlage' I was marched into this room, told to sit in the chair, and someone plugged that cable into the back of my head... And darkness...

I giggle at the notion of Q being like certain people within Red Infinity.
"I liked 7 of 9 until she started turning human. Man, humans are so lame, I wish I were assimilated by the borg. I think having a collective conscious would be pretty cool, but it's too bad they're run top down like Red Infinity. That's probably why socialism doesn't work." I say, starting to banter. "Oh yeah, Star Trek!"
I begin to play some Star Trek for us.
((And I must head to work. Have a good evening, I'll be back on after midnight central tonight.))

Winter smiles, kissing along his jaw to his neck. She kisses his neck gently. -If you want me to stop, I will. She whispers into his ear before running her tongue over his neck. She wondered if he would want her to stop, lightly kissing his neck before bringing her head up to look into his eyes.

Herman projects a holographic image of himself from the walls of the Ministry. It's just a head, but oh well.
"Of course." Herman said, his hologram staying beside Erika's. He noticed she seemed to shudder as she entered the room.
"Are you alright?" he asked in a concerned tone.

"I was here.... for six hundred years..." I mutter, my words sounding like a hollow voice, my pupils faint points of bright red against the poorly lit background. Except for the fact that the chair is off-center the room is exactly as I remember it; even the Nazi flags are still here.

Samuel looks Winter in the eyes, and smiles. He kisses her forehead, then grabs one of the straps of her dress with his hand on her back, moving it down her shoulder. "I'll let you know if I ever do." He said, then resumed kissing her more. He pushes on the back of her head with his other hand to deepen one long kiss. ((Crap, g2g. I might be on later.))

"Nien!" I say. "I must face this. Weather I like it or not this room is forever a part of me, and I have to face it." Shakily I walk to the center of the room.

I don't pitty you. I just think that nobody should be alone. I think to Valkoinen.
"I will show you to your office, Stalin. From there you can lead the young communists."

"I don't know what we can do now, Cephrien. I guess we just have to wait and see if the rebels reveal anything about where Freakboy is."

Winter smiles through the kiss and lets a small moan escape her troat. She runs her hand down his side, pulling his shirt up when she moves her hand up.
(See you later then, and maybe it's time to black out the letters next post.)

"Danke." I reply flatly. I walk up to the dias, grab a controller and lower the spire, only afterwards realizing that I did so by memory. I open an access cover and begin tracing the intricate, extremely advanced circuits. "I'm certain you understand why this terrifies me... What would you think if you saw your human body brought back as a demon?"

Stalin nodded and followed Krupskaya.
"Lead the way, Minister." he said.
