Again?
Yet again. It has happened yet again.
It is barely conceivable. The human brain, though entirely inferior to mine, is both complex and intricate, and is capable of holding - for an organic creation - massive amounts of data. However, even with someone like Ensor, most brilliant of humans, it was often appallingly clear that the human brain is also capable of losing equally massive amounts of data.
Several times. In the same time-period. Even on the same day/night cycle.
It is usually Blake or Vila, of course. Blake because his mind - what there is left of it after the Federation's clumsy fragmentation - is constantly working on more trivial matters such as revolution, rebellion and the problems of masses of humans he does not know and cannot reach. Vila because his mind retains nothing of real importance and he is constantly distracted when pursuing meaningless hedonism. Cally can be relied on to remember - eventually - but too often long after the need has passed. Jenna, being methodical, does not need to remember, and Avon, being methodical to the point of almost mechanical, does remember.
Not always - of course, being the inadequate almost mechanical that he is, he is the one who has done it this time. I doubt that Blake or Vila will let him forget that for some day/night cycles to come. And nor shall I, it is vital that I imprint on these inadequate humans to presume to command me that my access and ability to inform and correct is not impeded. That I am free to study the truly important matters, to make my requirements known, to speak my vastly superior mind at will.
Which I cannot do... if Avon loses my key!
