"This issue with the flood. I instruct you to use the proper terminology." Flare was getting a bit more aggravated. "May I have access to a terminal to view relay pathways? I need to determine where any flood that could of escaped could have gone."

"Of course. We have a map of that somewhere on the ship."Riisart said, heading off.

"Thank you. Your assistance will be most beneficial." Flare enjoys this news and waits for the map and it's location.

"I found it, though we'll need to be in the comm room to use it."Riisart said, holding up some sort of card-like device.

"That is perfectly fine. Oh and who would I need to contact in order to speak with the Geth? Do they have an ambassador of some sorts?"

"No they do not. Ai's normally aren't permitted in Citadel space.Mostly at fault of the Quarians. However we can easily go directly to Ranoch and request a platform made to hold you."Riisart said.

"May I request my own creation of a platform? You see it has been many centuries since I had a body. I wish to try and rebuild one more. Reminiscent of my original." Flare asks as he access the map on the network card.

"I don't know about that. I'm certain Alice would have issues with you directly interacting with the Geth. The Quarians and Geth themselves may have issues with this themselves. On top of that I do not know much about the Geth. I do not know how they manufacture their platforms. I could ask ZK, our local Geth, about this if you would like however. Even if they don't let you directly manufacture your new platform I do not see a reason why they would deny building your platform to your specifications. Though it may still show Geth influences."Riisart said.

Flare thought about this but after finishing his analysis on the networks and the citadel he had a better idea. "Well if it is too much trouble it may not be worth it with the flood infestation and all."

"Oh I'm certain there would be no trouble what so ever. The Geth easily have one of the largest fleets in the galaxy, with who knows how many individual platforms in it. And that's not counting the Geth Ai's, just the paltforms. I'm certain the production of a single platform with some unique attributes wouldn't be a problem. Hmmm.... It may also provide GASA, you, and the Geth some data on the use of foreign Ai's in foreign platofrms. Well, foreign to the Ai that is." Riisart said.

"My ai... I am designed and purposed to be able to enter any system in case of shell termination. I will be able to fit into any computer system in almost any universe. I bet with enough time I could fit into a reaper." Flare gave one of his constant speeches about his abilities and capabilities.

"I can tell you that would be impossible. The reapers wouldn't build a enw reaper shell for an alien Ai. They wouldn't even build one for a familiar Ai. That and I think for a reaper to be built it would require the extinction of a species."Riisart added. "From my understanding and reports I've read from Commander Shepard's time in the Collector base, for a Reaper to be constructed it needs a 'base' reaper. Said 'base' is designed after the species that was harvested to create it, and then the standard Reaper shell is built around it. I am uncertain if a Reaper could be built with out a 'base' to be built around."Riisart said.

"Oh I was merely saying it is possible for me to. I am not saying it would happen. The reapers would not allow me the same way I would not allow one of them into my installations systems." Flare began to flicker for a second but came back. "The damage to this shell is rather greater then I though. Soon I may need a place to store myself in a large system. In order to allow me the best chances of surviving. With the shells damage and all."

"Hmmm. I know for a fact Alice would not want you downloading yourself into the Polyanthus, same for Paana. And I'm certain Naal would have his disagreements. And he would never even consider allowing you to download yourself to ZK."Riisart said.

"I know. Would it be possible to add me into a ship or station? Even a dead one would allow me to ditch this body." Flare said trying to keep his composure while trying to seem needy.

"Hmmm...."Riisart thought. "I'll alert the pilot that we will be traveling to Ranok. If you shut down do you think you would be able to reactivate yourself?"Riisart asked. "I am sure the Geth would have a platform for you to atleast temporarily use until they can manufacture one to your specifications. I don't think there are any 'dead' space stations any where near by. Even if the station was dead I highly doubt Alice would allow you to download yourself into one."Riisart said. "But a simple transfer to a Geth platform would be different. And even then, I am positive Brazz would back up my reasoning and over rule Alice's orders."Riisart said, heading to the pilot.

"I agree. But if I were to shut down my systems would die and so would I. A sleep mode is too risky with my currently damaged software. Anything short of a large computer system for smart ai would be too small for me. My apologies but I require decent space to save my data." Flare says hovering to the cock pit.

"I understand. Most Ai's do need plenty of space, much more than Vi's."Riisart said. "We're going to Ranoch."Riisart told him. "On whose orders?"The pilot asked. "Mine. Flare's current body is damaged and needs to be repalced. Ranoch is the best palce to get a replacement body for him."Riisart said. "I'll need to run that by Al-"The pilot said before being cut off. "No, you don't. Brazz would want Flare in a new un damaged body and he outranks Alice."Riisart said. "Alright. Though if we get in trouble it's your ass, not mine."He said, befpre activating the ship and heading out to Ranoch. After a few hours, and a few Relay jumps, the Polyanthus arrived at Ranoch. Hovering above it in orbit was the Migrant fleet, with its ships being many more times larger than the Polyanthus.

Flare examined the Migrant fleet. "Well then. Very interesting." He says moving to see Ranoch. "Can you give me access to basic Geth designs? That background data will assist me in creating a new more efficient body. I will also need to talk the details over with whoever is in charge."

"Zk should have data on the different classifications of Geth platforms. Unlike Alice he wouldn't have much reason to hold a grudge against you, though the Geth have become more individualized since they received their upgrades, so I am unsure if he would or wouldn't hold a grudge."Riisart said.
