fandaalEvery cop has no less than six standard 'priming mods', PI to P6, but it's P3 which imposes the mental state
appropriate for active duty, it's P3 which really makes you primed. It had always been clear to me that what P3 did was
cripple the brain -efficiently, reversibly, and to great advantage, but there was no point being squeamish or
euphemistic about it. The priming mods made better cops, the priming mods saved lives - and the priming mods made
us, temporarily, less than human. I could live with that, so long as I didn't have my nose rubbed in it too often. The
'priming drugs' of the bad old days - a crude, purely pharmaceutical attempt to suppress emotional responses, heighten
sensory awareness and minimize reaction times - had caused a number of side-effects, including unpredictable
transitions between the primed and unprimed states, but the arrival of neural mods had banished all such
complications.
