The Adjustment Bureau

My job is to dispose of Proxy who have gone so off track
that their mind is deemed not only Ruinous but potentially "postal"
I read David x.'s neurals
and must figure out if he is "playing games" with his  mentors or going off the deep end
He is not together enough to pull off a "happening"to calcify  in the media mind that "this type" is a danger to others.
No," I Don't Like Mondays"  for a David X. who video surveillance has shown has stopped even combing his hair
what a waste of time.....

 Mary Kay is his current  mentor.
a fine piece of technological machinery herself,especially after the nano cosmo insertion she had last month
Mary Kay  went from a low 6 to a high 8 on the looks scale
 in all of 2 weeks

Mary Kay is concerned about one of her Proxy
a homeless man in Denver
who had finally gotten section 8 housing

David isn't doing well with his augmentation
so bad in fact that Mary has encouraged him to start a journal
and buy some books on "how to make a fireworks out of common things like fertilizer...and such.".
just to "have round" his apartment ,just in case,
 his case is deemed Unresolvable...


it goads me to have to wear the headset
especially with our  Proxys who do not take care of their bodies or themselves like david x
one always feels one needs a shower afterward..or some de- lousing cream

but since this David is close to Endgame
I put on the headset to peruse David's mind
and see a pinstriped moldy shower curtain and David's bare feet in yellow sandals
and can only assume he is relieving himself

MK gives me a smile ,she knew from studying his BCI  graphic mappings exactly where David was and what he'd be doing

"Thanks Mary Kay,"I smile

She returns the smile and I can only hope both the smile and the direct neural OPPS was Mary 's way of flirting with me.

"i guess I'll come back later,any interesting loops I can listen in on,"I am not really iin the mood to peruse anyone's Interiors for fun  but I want to somehow get up the nerve to ask Mary out
"There's a mother of 3 in St Petersburg who has begun snorting heroin to deal with "The Voices",she got in a hell of a fight with her brother last night who threatened call social services"Mary slips a captured neural into the BCI and hands me back the headset.I see a bright colored kitchen and dirty dishes in the sink and what I can only assume is the mother of three's brother pointing at the dishes..."I take the headset off...the linoleum reminds me of my own childhood,nor doing I like experiencing the world from a woman's perspective..."

I remove the headset and cannot help but judge Mary for finding anything "sharable" about a woman with 3 children spiked with nano for a population cross section study sponsored by a new sports drink company ,but Mary is so hot that she can be forgiven for her guilty pleasures concerning "the Lives of Others"

"so ..what are doing for lunch or better yet dinner"I ask

Mary smiles and looks at some scribbles on a yellow legal pad,4 junkies,2 whores,and THAT   actress some billionaire in Australia paid 2 mil for "money shots"..

Christ would I like to get some share time with THAT actress but those neurals are off limits..

"maybe an early dinner?"She says ,"And David is finished "his business"

"did he wash his hands"I ask
