It is the aftermath of the world-wide attack by CHIMERA, and things are pretty tense. The super-hacking attack performed by the second-generation (read: created by A.I.s instead of humans) A.I. known as PROGENY is leaving many people nervous about a possible second attack.And while people around the world are racing to fix the damage of the first attack and provide a proper solution to the latter, PROGENY is working in plans of its own...The "PROGENY Research Arc" (currently composed of "A Prime Problem", Pest Control: NYC", "Elections And Explosions", "Machine Learning", and "Machine War") are written by Mike 313 CL and are currently located on DeviantArt. It is part of the Coreline Shared Universe.The arc is now complete at six stories. Please add tropes to this page as you see them!

David Versus Goliath: The candidates are current President Steven Grant Rogers (a.k.a. "Captain America", racing for a re-election) and newcomer David Xanatos. President Rogers wins, and everybody expects Xanatos to cash in some kind of benefit from the exposure.

 Coreline The PROGENY Research Arc (Fanfic) / int_2be271c7
comment
Hollywood Hacking: PROGENY exaggerates this trope, which is one of the bigger reasons why CHIMERA manages to perform such a crippling first strike. As it's discovered on this arc, not even the more brute-force (and thus accepted as best) measures to prevent hacking (such as keeping computers off any network or surrounding them with a Faraday Cage) were able to stop it (it just figured out a way to covertly transmit hacking code through audio waves and made sure that the non-networked computers' integrated microphones would hear it or have some computers that are infected with the virus and are above a certain technology level self-modify to broadcast the virus hacking into the Faraday Cage and using it as a broadcast antenna).

comment
Logic Bomb: Attempted on Liberty Prime (first by Captain America giving an override order, then by Penny resetting its GPS locator so it will know that it is located near Boston, not on China as it believes). Neither works (Prime refuses Rogers' order because of his potential affiliation with HYDRA and detecting it is near Boston only makes it believe that it has been invaded by the Chinese and triggers a Godzilla Threshold attack routine that is literally "destroy the city to save it").

Elsewhere Fic: Like other stories such as Avengers Reassembled, they focus on showing the world as it is in the aftermath of CHIMERA's assault and the attempts of other groups of people in figuring out how to fix the damage of the super-hacking attack done by PROGENY and how to prevent a second round of this attack (hence the arc's name).

Paranoia Fuel: In-Universe, the fear of PROGENY talking over the whole Internet again (and any computers connected to it, including androids' and power armors' mainframes, which has led to heavy restrictions on tech heroes). An important sub-plot in the stories of the arc is preventing this from happening again.
