The '''Phase 2 Operator's Monologue''' is a collection of recorded thought processes of [[The Operator]] on the website [[I Love Bees (Website)|I Love Bees]] in [[2004]]. In the year [[2552]], a [[Slipspace Anomaly]] threw fragments of the AI [[Melissa (AI)|Melissa]] back into time to the year 2004. One of the fragments, [[The Operator]] was so badly damaged that it couldn't function or remember who she was. The Operator slowly gained back awareness and power due to the emergency "first aid" administered to her by the [[SPDR]].

Fragments of the [[Melissa (AI)]] were thrown back into time, to the year 2004. One of the fragments, [[The Operator]] was so badly damaged that it couldn't function or remember who she was. The Operator slowly gained back awareness and power due to the emergency "first aid" administered to her by the [[SPDR]].


The following flashback is from the point of view of The Operator. In her reduced state she doesn't view the SPDR as a savior but as a torturer.

I find myself checking back on certain things, little memories I locked down tight and swaddled up for future reference. Seems as if all the 3-sense memories are gone - wiped out by the Assassin or the Servant or pure impact damage - but I still have some of the faintcopy /// backups.
