Steel balls? A Caine Mutiny reference?
No. Until I looked it up, I didn't even realize it was a book. The plot summary for it in Wikipedia is still pretty long, and seems a little interesting.
I wrote the steel balls in as a visual representation that the main character is thinking, and it's also something to help her think. I also thought of it as a minor hint at authority.
I'm curious, based on my explanation, was it used in "A Caine Mutiny" the same way?
The mad lass is back to being an absolute genius. I'm scared for the CMC's sake.

This comment amuses me, but I got one question for you about it. When you say
, are you implying there was a moment in this story when she stopped being an absolute genius? If so, I'm curious where she failed in your opinion.
Also, did any songs play in your head while these scenes played out? I ask because another commenter in a later chapter did point out a theme song which that person thought was fitting for Cozy Glow in this story. I'll link it here:
I like how Cozy keeps referencing back to this thing that Diamond Tiara did that warrants revenge, but as readers we haven't gotten to see what that was quite yet. It makes me feel like this was what most people would think of as a minor or trivial slight, but Cozy in her mind perceives it to warrant total revenge. Although it is interesting to see that she is willing to leave such matters in the past should they conflict with her important future goals.
Also it was kind of sweet to see that Cozy is willing to give up her revenge if it draws her away from her mother. Albeit her reasoning was probably the creepiest way possible to come to this conclusion in that she considers her her primary resource. Not that it is untrue, in any familial relationship, it's just a very unsettling way to think about it.
Also Cozy being able to implant a virus through just opening a text message is like, insane level hacker skill. Like she would have had to find a crazy zero-day backdoor through the text messenger's operating system.

Yeah. As readers, you still haven't seen Cozy's primary motive against Diamond yet, though there is hints of it throughout the story. For instance, as fans, we remember how Diamond Tiara used to be. She was very irritating but usually not enough to explain this level of hatred. If you recall back in the old days, though, Diamond was quite manipulative. She gathered information to use it to blackmail others. Cozy's following that example except she's taking it to the next level in multiple ways, for example . . .
I'm not an expert hacker, but Cozy is. I think i have heard of viruses downloaded simply by opening an e-mail. A text message is much more simple. Perhaps even too simple. E-mail is more the mark, but text messages can have links in them sometimes. Click that and it might lead to another area to infect the phone. I've also seen more complex things imbedded in text messages as well such as pictures. To load that picture, the information has to be fed into the phone's memory. Along with that, there might be hidden data that is implanted along with it.
Also, interestingly, these comments on this seems to emphasize what was said in chapter 6.
I wanna read this story. Lol
Don’t text messages have a sender. Linked to a number? That is listed in a phone books?

I imagine a professional hacker would know how to hide or disguise their sender info, such as rerouting it through a bogus e-mail address and such. VPN services are basically this in a nutshell.
Well i've been reading this for a while now, and so far i really like it. Since she first appeared on FiM i liked her, and your take on Cozy's tought procces is what i would have imagened for her. I don't see any problems so far.

Thank you very much! I'm so glad you enjoyed it so far. My thought process on this character is to follow the FIM as a model but modify it by the fact she is a human girl and always was. I also had to take into account what that world had which she might take advantage of. The end result is, in my opinion, an interesting "similar but different" scenario.
i am gonna dislike this story solely because author thinks nintendo powerglove and google glasses are good and stealthy devices.
