Jemiatha’s Jumble Stop
In which Bechimo settles the bill.
It hadn’t occurred to me to think much about what name one of Bechimo‘s reserve personalities might have, but of course it depends on where they’re deployed: if one had taken over control of Bechimo, its name would have been Bechimo, but since it didn’t, it isn’t. And apparently the name of the ship this one is now based in is Admiral Bunter, which gives us two defense-oriented AIs in this series who share the names of characters from English literature. I’d remark on the coincidence, but as remarkable coincidences go I think Roderick Spode still has it beat.
