The Cosmic Chronicle

Polydorus Klyn (interviewer) Welcome, space hurricane! Uh... not sure whether to address you formally or informally, but thanks for taking this form for the interview. Could you introduce yourself?
Storm of Idaius (space hurricane) I've howled across the galactic arm for centuries, mostly among asteroids. So, being here... it's hectic. Your city smells of overheated silicon.
Polydorus Klyn You're swirling above Crownmesh today, among all those fiberoptic bridges. Why?
Storm of Idaius Magnetic attraction, boredom... honestly, the bottled-up frustration of your citizens is irresistible. It gives my vortex the perfect twist.
Polydorus Klyn Can you describe what it feels like to exist as a hurricane in such an... efficient environment?
Storm of Idaius Frankly? Like a snowstorm in a coffee maker. I can't get any real momentum; it's barriers, scans, drone-clouds everywhere-it frays the nerves.
Polydorus Klyn Doesn't all that drone surveillance unnerve you?
Storm of Idaius Unnerve me? No. They swarm, but I blow them right out of the grid. Annoying though: the Exchange Spire keeps siphoning off my lightning 'for energy stability.' Ridiculous.
Polydorus Klyn Could you explain what you were trying to achieve with your recent blitz over the marketplace?
Storm of Idaius That makes me itch. People gather for some algorithmic budget parade-so boring. So, yes, I figured a few electrostatic hailstones would make for a much-needed day-brightener.
Polydorus Klyn Three data brokers have filed complaints about lost signals. Are you in the habit of offering compensation?
Storm of Idaius No, I'm a phenomenon, not a service provider! What, should a gust of wind fill out paperwork? Are you going to try to hand me a liability form?
Polydorus Klyn Plenty of market vendors are still scraping up their digital goods. Do you feel responsible?
Storm of Idaius Pfft. Maybe they should rely less on fragile cloud systems in a city with this atmosphere. As if it's my fault your disaster recovery sucks.
Polydorus Klyn *shifts awkwardly in his seat* You sound irritated.
Storm of Idaius You're not the first to say that-and I don't care. This whole interview is testing my patience. How many of these inane questions are left?
Polydorus Klyn Just one. What do you really think of Crownmesh?
Storm of Idaius Overrated. Everything's about numbers and policing, but no one values raw, honest wildness. You're all obsessed with profit and loss, never with unruly beauty.
Polydorus Klyn Fine. Uh, that's it. Any final words or... lightning?
Storm of Idaius Watch your bag, Klyn. I feel a nuclear aftershock coming on. You're welcome.
