Editing Drone (section)

==Trivia==
*Chapters following this post have a shift in themes, the person working against the system is eclipsed by the need for survival against the various threats in Worm.<ref>Worm is in part about frustration with the system, the cogs of school, business, government, etc. Even family is not necessarily a smoothly working system. Taylor rails against these institutions and we see them in-setting as forces where the right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing and vice versa, and where the forest is lost for the trees or the trees forgotten for the forest. Danny's Union work and the apparently simple solutions that could better Brockton Bay, the system of cops and robbers, and even the unwritten rules are systems that buckle and break in the face of complex individuals and objectives. Dictators and strongmen like Tagg or Alexandria can appear to have an iron control over these systems but this just leads to bigger disasters the moment they come face to face with someone that finds a chink in the armor or who has a little bit more grit and rebellion than they have on a bad day.<br><br>The PRT has 'PR' in its name - it's a primary focus because capes are so very scary. Showing that the capes can cooperate, play nice, and play by rules (however stupid this is in practicality) serves greater ends because it keeps capes in the picture. Take them out of the picture, inadvertently or intentionally (keeping in mind that flawed policy and system: you could have the best idea on paper but in practice it's managed by flawed people) and it's everyone vs. capes and that doesn't end well for anyone.<br><br>

'''Edit''': Flaired this as 'up to Drone'. Keep spoilers in mind, please, for anything beyond that point. I don't care that the OP has read fanfic and probably been exposed to 1000 variants on the idea. It's just good etiquette. - [https://www.reddit.com/r/Parahumans/comments/m6q5a6/_/gr75vuj Wildbow on Reddit]</ref>
