Don't let the drones get too close to you, anon. Remember, you're saving your flower for the one and only woman.

>>308577 and you just "forgot your wallet in your car." yeah yeah she heard your sob story and doesn't care. you've gotta pay for the Double Decka Down Unda Sando somehow, and the Joblins are busy making pies so get squeezing those lemons
>>308585 Doll has a very strong English accent, although I must admit that the word structure is correct, so I can assume that Yeva has a pretty damn strong accent too.
>>308588 think after everything that happened to her, and it was clearly harder for her than Nori, she will have a hard voice, but with her family and loved ones it will be very soft.
I noticed this chick yesterday, she was standing next to a display case with plastic soldiers of that stupid crap, warhammer or something, I don't know, I don't give a shit about Gig shit. I'm thinking of hitting on her, taking her to a football game. Girls love men's sport.
>>308596 >"The core is intact." >"The material is usable." >"Revive a new soldier of mankind." >[Some time later] >"Sir, Pidge is trying to feed the staff chewed food again." >"Lord, when this will end..."
A short John and Arrow green >It was a normal calm night on Copper 9 >As Arrow lay down next to John looking up towards the night sky >For these past few weeks Arrow have developed mix feelings towards John >More promptly the way how he treats her and her sister Akita or even that one being that calls himself "God" >He doesn't give them any malice,fear, disgust or any negative emotions but instead with patience >And this did nothing throw her into a loop on "why?" >"Why? Be more patience with us? What is the end goal here? What does he want from us?" Boggles over and over >Till on this very day she ask him >Arrow:"Hey John...and I ask you something?" >John:"What is it kid, what's you got on your mind" >Arrow:"Why do you treat us differently from the drones? We were once like them...well at least me and Akita not sure on the "God" fellow...but still why? And also why do you still call me a kid?" >John pause for a moment before taking a deep sigh >John:"That's because you and your sister are still learning about life. Learning to be comfortable not only with yourselves but also how to go about life." >John:"In other words your just the new normal that comes with time. And with this new normal will come with their mistakes, like any other normal that came before" >John:"Only difference is to be more acceptable of those mistakes. For every bruise,cut, burn or whatever mistake you make: accept it. Do not deny it but instead improve upon it. And if it fails at least you know you did your best and saw it through to the very end." >John:"That's why I'm patience with you,akita and of course them as well. Your still growing, still learning. And I'm not happy that you guys make mistakes but learned from it and improve upon it...even when it doesn't succeed" >John:"At least you're doing better than us...those who aren't willing to accept those failures or didn't see it through all the way. Making sure you don't repeat the same mistakes like us" >John:"My last advice for you is that when life give you a moment of "nostalgia"...make sure it doesn't be filled with pain like mines...make sure its filled with bittersweetness...at least those moments you have with them will all the better" >During John's talk Arrow slowly crept her tail around John hand making sure he doesn't notice >For his words brought a strange sort of comfort towards her >Arrow:"Hey John....Thanks for teaching me how to cook..." >John:"...My door is always open if you or your sister need anything" >Arrow:"Thank you..." >And after she said that line it almost as if John gently grasp her tail a little bit tighter >Perhaps its was his weird way to express a hug The end
>>308610 JcJ (In spaaaaaaaaaaaaceeeeeeeeee) operating procedures forbid one technician to handle more than five drones in a unit, there are well over a thousand DD's on Copper-9
>>308612 Once those dromes find out how to repair their ships they'll raid the JC orbital space station for all of it's male technicians The females will be milked
>>308628 A soda drone can produce their own soda, soda specific fridge drones are smaller fridge drones that don't have a tail that only really have 4 to 5 liters of soda in them and once they run out they get depressed
>The Firstborn was one Cyn solver basement much Uzi flesh spear. >A small worm-like being managed to escape but Cyn didn't care: >Feeds on any organic matter: human flesh, bones.
>Every time it eats, it grows more distinct features from the DNA it assimilated: tiny eyes, teeth or Wings.
>It started consuming small creatures like spiders and crows gaining their abilities and mass.
>Somehow end up in the food of one the Elliott guest consuming them inside out. >The victim died in the bathroom and that's when the Firstborn gain sentience.
>She hides in one of Tessa stuffed toys that end up in Copper-9
>As the slug absorbs enough biomass, it reshapes into a slender humanoid woman.
>She has hypnotic properties. Others become obsessed with her beauty… then terrified of her true form.
>She has flesh manipulation and strong regeneration abilities any dropped hair, blood, , or cell can regrow into another Sapien.
>The clones are independent and she prefers to dissolve them with her acid so they won't be a problem.
>Highly narcissistic and think she's the most beautiful creation in all of existences.
>Her eyes are assimilated sentient helpless victims that can be detachable and fly with wings.
>She's jealous of Maya calling her unworthy to be Mother Vessel.
>>308516 Pretty sure I did since I was sharing the concept for my Pirate Drone green. Although I didn't add stuff like the living dragon animatronic for Albion-5. Anyways, any writefriends have any ideas on how to spark up creativity? I've been going through a several month writers block
>"Welcome to Oogi Park!" >The massive wooden doors swing open to reveal a massive jungle >Oogis dressed in dinosaur costumes roam about, mostly confused on how they got there
>>308623 >Uzi prepares some torture implements for the human captive >It's her homework, robots are better at math than humans so this should destroy him >She walks in to find Emily nestled in the human's lap, their hands clasped together
I still don't like how half of the first episode of season 2 was dedicated to scenes of N feeding Uzi various coins and calling her his "little piggy bank" while she got progressively more nauseous.
So you know how I may or may not have aluded a long time ago towards the fact that I would introduce new Drone races in the future? How about I do one right now : ] Here comes the denizens of C9's oceans with sharp as hell teeth, Riptides!
>one of many new races of Drones from this future, being specialized for aquatic environments and completely abandoning dry land >they're unique among most races thanks to the fact that their origin is mostly a mystery; most new races have emerged from a need of customization which in time evolved into permanent traits that have separated the base model Worker Drone into several distinct races, yet no one knows what pushed the formation of the Riptide >this extends to the shark Drones themselves, as their true origin has been lost, with most only recounting their “birthplace” being from deep underwater, more specifically an “ocean in an eternal night” >some have taken this saying to inditate the abyss being their origin, while the more superstitions folk believe them to come from Cocytus, the mythical underground ocean said to reside under Makai, the lowest layer of “hell”, which has unfortunately caused them to be seen as demons >regardless, the Riptides don't take this beliefs to heart, which is why they still maintain friendly relationships with land Drones, at least the populations that live in the Closed Sea thanks to their generation spanning alliance with the Liberians (sea fairing folk, not exactly pirates, but they do burrow the esthetic) >as mentioned before, Riptide Drones have all but abandoned life on land, trading their legs for fins and a tail, with their overall look being heavily reminiscent of sharks >the rubbery polymer that usually covers the lower abdomen of a regular Drone has been extended to a much bigger degree, now covering the entirety of their tail and their arms, providing insulation from salt water corrosion >their fingers now end in sharp claws while curiously lacking webbing between them >their teeth are far sharper that a regular Drone's, which they need to be in order to fulfill their main purpose of biting and slicing through metal >Riptide Drones primarily feed on metal, which is fairly abundant in C-9's oceans due to aquatic class Sentinels along with old ships from the era of man that have long since sank; they don't care how rusty the metal is, as long as they can shove it down their gullet >their feeding method is the standard chewing rather than swallowing big pieces, however it's the method they use to “bite” chunks of metal off large structures that tend to make them incredibly famous and somewhat feared >Riptides can open their mouths almost 150°, however once they sink their teeth in something, they don't bite a chunk out immediately, instead their jaws start to rotate in a semi circular motion, with the upper and lower jaws always going opposite direction; the process is lightning fast, their teeth springing to life and sawing off a chunk of metal which they then proceed to bite normally out of it; >this freaky attribute of theirs allows them to bite through virtually anything, being able to use even one of their jaws as an improvised buzzsaw, slicing through even the toughest of cables or doors; >another curious trait that Riptides possess that has made them looked at with suspicious eyes by so many is their ability to give “birth” >essentially, all female Riptides are born with a small Pillbaby already inside them and when the time comes for the new set of parents to harbor an offspring, the mother with take all the data shared by the father, which combined with hers which will then be transferred in the Pillbaby inside her; after approximately two months, the mother's abdomen will actually split open, although at a special spot that will immediately reseal itself >what comes out of the Mother Riptide isn't a normal Pillbaby, however, but instead a special sack that contains the baby known as a “Mermaid Purse”, which is a bizarre type of plant many have compared to a Sapling, its usually soft body now a hard shell meant to protect the infant inside >after three months (the full process will be explained in its own entry), the juvenile Riptide will emerge out of the Mermaid Purse, fully functional >this strange birth process has proven to be an incredibly massive advantage to the Riptides, essentially removing the need for any Nursery Factories, allowing them to be one of the only truly self sustaining Drone races, however the Mermaid Purse potentially being a Sapling has made many a lot more curious about the origin of these shark Drones, proving that they may indeed originate from the Heavenly Lands, yet the original location or motive behind their creation still remains unsolved >while the populations of Riptides that inhabit the Closed Sea are quite friendly towards land Drones, that's not always the case with Riptides that can be found across all of Copper-9, with some being actively antagonistic towards “two legs”, while others may have gone their entire lives never even seeing a land Drone
>>308688 >>308689 Neat! Very cool fishy drone, remember Anons whenever you act like fish and take bait one of these will swim over and eat you (Non sexually) Vore enthusiasts will be shot with harpoons instead >The give birth FISH DRONE IMPREGNATION
>>308683 It is merely the natural state of drones to lust for khock, much as it is in their nature to lust for Ns, and to do otherwise is a constant battle of will.
>>308612 Out of curiosity, how many "waves" of DDs (as you mentioned) have been sent? And do these waves imply that the DDs were sent to Copper 9 to overheat and die like in cannon?
>>308694 There were four waves, the first happened a year after the the disaster then the DD's and Technician staff was rotated roughly every four years, the DD's don't die from overheating (Tessa would hate that) they get retired, before Tessa was the CEO they were demilled and pushed into office work, once Tessa took over the technicians had take the demilled drones home under threat of being sued into oblivion (We put it in your work contract), the drones get retired when a new advancment is made with the DD models the first ones were basically tall workers with tails and rifles Sometimes DD's get upgraded to a newer generation instead but being a DD for too long is bad for thier psycheThe main reason for all of this is that I wanted N and V to have time to have this little bugger over here, but it would be hard for that too happen if they were on the planet since Nori got nanited
>>308697 Is there anything like outpost 6 in this setup, or would such a position (heavily armed and fortified with an awareness on how to permanently kill DDs as well as presumably multiple dead human technicians under their belt) be focus fired so hard by an actual army that they aren't worth thinking about?
>>308697 >Tessa takes over demilitarization plan >Immediately shifts DDs from "autimatic employees" to "mandatory slaves" >Technicians who don't want to own their coworkers get automatic entrance into the "slave" pool
>>308697 Also is not dying from overheat a "they were never meant to be fire and forget missiles" thing or a "the comany will literally orbital drop oil onto their spires to keep them operational" thing? Because given how much firepower was have been dropped on Copper 9 over the years I kind of doubt it even could sustain the dietary needs of over 1000 dissemblers at this point, even given that it's a whole planet.
>>308699 All outposts are relativley well armed, taking the fight to JCJ is a bad idea, they simply have more resources than the drones, the plan is that they can wait them out and that JCJ will eventually need to cut it's losses and abandond the planet. And these DD's aren't as OP as the cannon ones they are only slightly sturdier than workers, they rely on hiting hard and fast, there are prototypes of self regenerating chassis but those are prohibitivley expensive to produce and need a lot of oil to keep runing, but not having techno satan means the DD's can go out in the sun no problem
>>308701 >>308701 > "they were never meant to be fire and forget missiles" thing or a "the comany will literally orbital drop oil onto their spires to keep them operational" A bit of both, they don't need excessive ammounts of oil to operate, and the company is efficent, the robo roach bots get dropped alongisde DDs to mop up thier kills and make sure no oil is wasted. The DDs started out as a internal security solution that got reworked once workers started going rogue
>>308688 weird but cute droan. >generation spanning alliance with the Liberians (sea fairing folk, not exactly pirates, but they do burrow the esthetic) >Liberians like, from the west African nation of Liberia?
>>308700 If she could put a clause in the contract that says the technician is married to the drones in his/her squad she would do it in a heartbeat and JCJ forbids divorces for any and all reason
>>308707 The furthest I can go without finding it ridiculous is if the female drone just has a more curving chest piece that kinda evokes the shape of a bosom without any of the details. Imagining one with soft human-like breasts with nips and everything just makes me think of sex dolls which kills it for me.
>be humie in charge of teaching the "problem" DDs how to reintegrate into society >your class is mostly the usual depressive types, a handful with anger issues, etc. >this one girl, though, she's uh... >well for starters, she's modded to hell and back. limb extensions, excessive chassis work with oversized mammary adapters, hot pink psuedo-nails, dyed blonde hair– >she's even had her caution stripes painted over pink and bedazzled >and like the caricature she is, she's sitting in the back of class, loudly chewing gum and texting on a positively ancient flip phone that you doubt can even connect to modern day cell signals >you'd hoped she'd quiet down after you greeted the class and introduced the lesson for today, but she just laughed out loud then went back to chewing and beeping. >you told her she wasn't allowed to have gum in class, she just brushed you off with a snarky "like, I don't have any gum" and continued chewing even louder >you asked her with increasing firmness to start behaving but your frustration only encouraged her >by the time she swung her feet onto her neighbor's desk, cracking his screen in the process, you'd had enough. >you told her to spit out her gum or you would have her removed from the classroom for being disruptive. >she scoffed, hopped up from her seat, strutted to your desk at the front of the class, looked you dead in the eye with a nasty smirk, and spat on your desk >an ear. there is a severed ear sitting in a pool of synthetic saliva on your desk. >"toldja I didn't have any gum" >you're hammering the little red button under your desk but with a mocking swish of her miniskirt the girl sees herself out before security has time to reach the classroom >"seeya 'round, teach"
>>308711 >TFW Emily learns there really are attractive human men on the planet >TFW Emily then realizes literally all of them are committed to at least 2 other drones, and they aren't happy to share
>>308721 >Akita tries to get onto the island after hearing about it from her parents, hoping she would be a normal drone for there >Gets the entire "you are not a toy" speech from local ruler (buckety) >Asks if she can stay anyways, gets directions to "miscellaneous mutant flesh-hole" instead >Has to pass through the labs to get there >Jumped by sentinels, they decide she's "close enough" to human when she dinospergs >Spends Christmas hanging out with robodinos too happy to have some new stimulation after Xty years sitting in an empty base to treat her different >everything_went_better_than_expected.jpg
>Meanwhile back at the outpost, N and Uzi have flipped out and essentially ordered a planeteide search for wherever Akita went >They forgot Colt couldnt fly when they recruited him for "mandatory family recovery time" >Now he's assigned to literally circumnavigate the borders of his parent's old hunting grounds to "make sure she hasn't gone too far" instead of sulking in his room as he planned >"fuckin keeters"
So Uzi's only violently racist towards Anon in the "dating Beretta" timeline, right? I'd imagine she'd be much more okay with a human dating Akita, since at least she's got someone who knows meaty affairs inside-out (literally). And for Negev, she'd just be happy she's happy.
>>308688 Damn, fucking neat. How do they survive the pressure at lower depths though? Your rubber fetish is showing again. Also aaaaaaaaa this is reminding me to work on my ocean planet setting aaaaaaa
>>308697 >Hope born in the manor, but only raised partway before her entire family unit save Aunt Cyn leaves on "business" >Left with near no socialization (because the manor drones still have the "don't bother the Cyn at any cost, she creeps me out" and "make abso-fuckin-lutely sure the boss has no reason to pay attention to you" attitudes from the elder Elliots' time) and no support structure causes her to retreat into fiction >Inadvertently gets raised on a diet of victorian era mystery/romance novels (genetic) and horror movies (from caretaker Cyn) until she Uzis out and starts seeing everything in terms of her genre conventions >Becomes convinced between Tessa's occultism, the droneyard outside, and her absolute belief that if she starts uncovering some mystery the other manorial drones will want to associate with her that there's a grand conspiracy involving her family, the manor, and JCJenson itself at play that only she can solve >The more surprising thing is that she's completely right on like two different counts, and now Cyn has to play goalie to stop the tyke from ruining a plan 20 years in the making and getting everyone scrapped without tipping off Hope's near-supernatural sense for "twist villains" >TFW N and V get back from a 10 year deployment only to see their daughter has grown into a full blown conspiracy nut/"investigator" >TFW you have to send for the gremlin you brokered that peace treaty with in hopes that the resultant autism-to-autism conversation can convince her that your plan to overthrow the governing authorities of human space and install a drone puppet was only mildly sinister and mostly the puppet's idea in the first place
Idea re: an "MD is Uzi's chuuni ventfic" scenario: this is not Uzi's only chuuni ventfic, or even her only chuuni ventfic that's an actual narrative and not just the writing equivalent to drawing guns in her notebook's margins. It is, however, her most elaborate chuuni ventfic by far. If it was cleaned up it could be overhauled into something she could sell for money.
>>308688 >Took too long on the pirate Drone green that my inspiration has started their own aquatic world Maybe one day I'll do it. Probably not. Fuck. Anyways good ass art as always
>>308747 >>308748 I wish I just had the time and energy, if that's all I had I could've cranked out one fat juicy chapter. Anyways let's focus on something more relevant >(You) are picked for Secret Santa >Roll the dice and come up with a gift for the corresponding character https://www.calculator.net/dice-roller.html >NOTE: Try to keep in mind the characters actual personality >1.) Khan >2.) Nori >3.) N >4.) V >5.) J >6.) Lizzy >7.) Teacher >8.) Thad >9.) Emily >10.) Rebecca >11.) Detective Drone Girl (Before Dying Horribly Of Course) >12.) Doll (Pilot) >13.) Yeva >14.) Doll (Post-Pilot) >15.) Doll (Canonically Dubious Oil Ghost)
>>308755 Install shovelware games on them and have the data scrapers that are undoubtedly inside them sell they're contact information to telemarketers.
>>308750 >>13.) Yeva I give her a copy of Metamorphosis, largest print one there is, and a hoodie covered in panels from Metamorphosis. I write her instructions to always keep the book on her and to wear the hoodie every night, because they could save her entire family from a potential murder drone breakin.
whoever's sending their drone to slowly scoop out bits of my brain piece by piece so I gradually lose my passion, creativity, and general mental acuity could you stop it? I need that stuff more than your drone does
>>308765 Your brain is like a bowl of Mik n Ikes and my drone is currently picking out all the pink ones. You're just going to have to deal with it because her next favorite flavor is orange.
>>308713 >the female drone just has a more curving chest piece that kinda evokes the shape of a bosom without any of the details. I mean drones definitely have that already, does it at least for me also on the shot were she Alice is over Amda you can see a glimpse of her bare forward chest from behind, just under her left arm
>>308791 >>308792 YEES I have been thinking about DDs for a whike and uff, they are so hot ngl, weird insides, taller, the broader tongues...lutedrone torched my neuron
>>308808 Have you ever wondered what Pavo really thinks about humans? Like, fuck, he's a psycho, a complete one, what could possibly be going on in the head (processor) of someone like him?
>>308817 I killed them. I killed them all. They're dead. Every single one of them. And not just the men, but the women and the children too. They're like animals. And I slaughtered them like animals! I hate them!
>>308832 It's exhausting. I wanted to write a greentext about married life with a sentinel drone, but I couldn't even bring myself to start: it felt like someone had placed a fifty-kilogram weight on my brain.
>>306109 >The next day you arrive at school a bit earlier than usual, your dad woke you up when he was going to work >He was in more hurry than usual >Zen is also here early >She’s sitting at one of the benches in the corridor >One of the ones far away from everything else >You used to sit there to get some alone time… >Zen notices you and her screen lights up >”Hi Zen” “Hi Uzi, where’s Emily?” >”She’ll probably be here in a while, the class starts in 15 minutes” >You sit down next to her >”By the way do you have any plans for the weekend?” “What’s that?” >”You know… the two days off we get when there is no school? And when you only sometimes get time off when you work” “Oh… oh! Like the times when my manager would be gone after every friday….” >Her breathing becomes distressed and her screen begins glitching, her hands go limp and she begins to look straight ahead >”Hey, uhhh... Zen…” >You place your hand on the back in such a way that you could pull back if she tries to bite you again >The sudden contact makes her jump um and shriek >She looks around with fear and confusion “I… uh… sorry” >She sits back again >She covers her head with her hands “Uhm…. I’m not used to having time off, I don’t have any plans, I didn’t know I needed too” >”What? I wanted to ask if you would like to hang out with me and Emily” “S-sure… Thank you” >”Great! I have something really cool in mind, we’ll just have to get Emily on board” “And what is that?” >”Oh! Do you remember that book we had? Well on page 333 there is a section that…” >Before you can properly start to talk Zen’s head off with your arcane knowledge, someone rudely interrupts you “Sup freaks, you plan on diving into tunnels any time soon?” >Your frown and turn your head >”Lizzy…” >Oh great it’s her again, guess Doll isn’t at school right now so she can’t swoon over her >Zen leans out from behind you “Um.. hi?” >Lizzy gives you two a shit eating grin “Hi you you little mole drone” >Zen doesn’t know how to respond >”Hey! Shove off!” “Ohhh, defending your own? I’m glad you finally found someone as weird and batshit as you” >”What are you on about?” “You already forgot your little escapade yesterday? Oh you two made quite the ruckus… crawling through vents, yelling nonsense while running into people, oh the recordings are so funny” >Ah… damn it >Of course people recorded that >Lizzy moves closer to Zen “So what is it going to be mole girl? You’re going to be as much of a nuisance as the purple one? Maybe even more? I mean Uzi over here is quite something, but I heard you even crawled on all fours at one point…” >Before she can continue you get up and get in her face >”Leave her alone!” “What? Afraid your fellow vent crawler can’t take a bit of…” >You push Lizzy >”Bite me! We both have had enough of you!” >She stumbles back a bit before puffing up “Huh… The freak is uppity and violent…” >”Oh go cry to your dad like you usually do!” >She turns her head to the side and crosses her arms “Hmph! At least my dad…” >Before she can finish something catches her attention >She gives you a wide smile and begins to speak very loudly for some reason “I’m really surprised Emily wants to spend time with you, maybe she believed your ramblings about being a witch and thought you put a curse on her? Anyway I TRIED, see ya later~” >She walks away >Why did she say that last part so loud? >Tried? >Tried what? >You look in the direction Lizzy is going >Doll is standing at the end of the corridor >Ah, it was one of her plans >Great she made Lizzy attack Zen as well >Real classy >”Hey Zen?” >She doesn’t respond >You look at her >Zen looks like she’s about to cry >”You ok?” >Zen looks up at you “Uzi… am I a freak?” >”What? No! Don’t listen to a word Lizzy says she’s full of shit” “But we did do run around like mad yesterday… Or at least I did… and you had to chase me” >”Oh come on, who cares?” “She said people were recording…” >”And so what if they did? They normies recorded me doing dumb stuff many times” “Probably nothing like what I did…” >”Oh believe me I did some embarrassing stuff” >She cheers up a bit “Really, like what?” >”Uhh… uhm… There was that one time I was siting funny” >Zen immediately returns to a sour mood and her head sinks to the ground >Ah damn it >Alright Uzi, swallow your pride she won’t think lesser of you >”There was one time where we were doing a group project…” >Zen looks up again >”… There was no one who wanted to do it with me, and when the teacher started collecting our work I hid in a trash can” >Zen giggles to herself >Hey! Don’t laugh... “Heh… we are freaks…”
>>308839 >Before you can protest the bell rings >Zen stands up and ekes out a smile >You return it and you both go to class >You meet Emily in class “Hi guys! Everything alright Zen? You look a bit under the weather” “I-I’m ok” >You explain what happened to Emily >You try to cheer Zen up a bit more >Emily quickly doddles a drawing of you three and passes it to Zen >That about does it “Thanks guys…” “You’re welcome” >You slap her on the back >”The coven looks after their own” >After the class ends you stay in your seats >Zen doesn’t want to go and you’re not leaving her alone >You chat for a while eventually you try to talk with Emily about the ritual again >”Emily, you’re free to hang with me and Zen this weekend right?” “Sure, I’d love to” >”Great! I found this one ritual on the weekend wanted to talk with you about” >Emily grimaces “Are you sure you want to do another ritual this soon? And you shouldn’t endanger Zen!” >Aw come on, your plan isn’t dangerous… >Actually it’s incredibly dangerous now that you think about it >Zen speaks up “If Uzi is going to be doing something dangerous I don’t want her to do it alone” >Emily looks at Zen then at you >After a while she gives in and lets out a prolonged groan “I’m really not sure about this…” >Thanks Zen, this plan has better chances of working out if all three of you take part >”Don’t worry you’ll love it I’m sure! We’ll talk details later” >But Emily is right, what you’re planing is rather dangerous, you should think of way to minimise the risks >School ends for today and you leave >”So how about we go to Zen’s place to discuss the ritual?” >Emily agrees but Zen cuts in “Actually guys, I have to go to the psychologist today” >Oh yeah your dad said something about Doll’s mom yesterday “We could walk you there then” “Please do…” >You’re… not so sure about that >Maybe you shouldn’t show your face there >But Zen looks like she’s really scared of going there >She probably expects stray glances from people who remember her from yesterday or that saw the recordings >You go with her and Emily >Zen knocks on the door to the office >Yeva opens the door “Зен, рад тебя видеть, и ты привёл компанию, привет, Узи, а ты, должно быть, дочь Элайджи” [Zen, good to see you, and you brought company, hello Uzi, and you must be Elijah’s kid] “Good day, my name is Emily” >”Good day Miss Yeva” “Приятно познакомиться, Эмили. Диван Зен ждет вас, устраивайтесь поудобнее” [Nice to meet you Emily, Zen the divan is waiting for you, go make yourself comfortable] >Zen enters and Yeva turns to you before closing the door “Это займёт какое-то время, вам двоим пора начинать, но я рад, что Зен так быстро подружилась, это должно помочь ей скорее поправиться” [This is going to take a while, you two should get going, but I’m glad to see Zen made friends this quick, should help her get better sooner] >She closes the door and you two leave >”Not like her daughter is helping… And so much for going over the ritual” >Still, you expected it to go worse, she didn’t look like she was angry at you “Maybe it’s for the best? Zen needs some help and you should study for the test on friday” >You try to change the subject “Uzi please! I know we have study session tomorrow but you should at least read through the topics that will be on the test” >”I will….” >You return home, say hi to mom and go to your room >Why do you even need to study biology? >You’re robots! You don’t have any of those squishy bits! >Whatever you should start copying your map >You need to make one of Emily and one for Zen >Once that’s done you start to think about ways to minimise certain risks >You’ll probably come across one of those things >Some sort of weapon maybe? >You lost the E.M.P… >You look around your room >Posers… Mangas… the Car batteries you need to charge… >Batteries… >You exploded your fair share of them... >Wait… maybe you could… >Just need to connect them with a soldering iron... >And this bit could work as a pin… >And these crappy transistors keep overloading and you have a lot of them… >Oh this is it! >You hold the freshly made grenade in your hand >Great! You should be able to make more of them >By 10pm you have twelve grenades ready >You need to got sleep you, ran out of parts to make any more anyway >You got school the next day, nothing special happens save for the fact that Lizzy now tries to bully both you and Zen >You don’t much care about what she says to you >Lizzy is acutely aware of that fact >Zen however reacts strongly so Lizzy focuses her attention on her
>>308840 >You and Emily do your best to get her to leave Zen alone, however fruitless that may be >”Don’t you have anything better to do? Go gossip with your dumb cheerleader friends or something” “I’ll go chat with them about how freakish you are after I’m done here” “Lizzy! Stop acting like a child! You’re better than this!” “Better than these two? Sure I am, but Ems I’m really worried about you, you hang out with those weirdos so much! They’ll start rubbing off on you soon” “You’re mean to my friends!” “You have weird ass friends! And I think the quiet one can’t take truth very well” >Zen is looking down on her desk and whimpering >You need to think of something quick >A sudden surge of inspiration hits you >You begin to slowly walk up to Lizzy “What freak? Want to try pushing my around again? Just try it….” >You begin to outstretch your arms “What are you doing?” >You lunge at Lizzy and close your arms around her >”Emily quick! Take a picture!” >Lizzy is momentarily stunned >Before she get’s out of her daze Emily manages to snap a few pictures “GET OFF ME YOU FREAKAZOID!” >She pushes you away >You run over to Emily and look at the pictures she took >Just what you needed “What the hell was that you purple creep!?” >You give Lizzy a smug smile >“What? I thought we were friends?” “Friends!? Did you fall and hit your head again?” >”Oh but we are friends! And once Emily posts those pictures online everyone will know!” >Lizzy’s face shifts from anger to fear “Don’t post that anywhere!” >“Oh, I don’t know… what will I get out of not embarrassing you?” >Lizzy fear turns to terror, she’s speechless >This went even better than you thought! >You didn’t expect her to be dumb enough for this to work, you just wanted to take the heat for Zen >”Well, Lizzy my bestie, how about you leave us alone and don’t bother us ever again and these images stay between us?” >She struggles to understand her position for a while before accepting your demands “I-I…. uhhhhh… fine purp…” >You stop her mid sentence >That’s not your name >She looks at you disgust in her screen >You give her a wide smile >She mutters something to herself before repeating “Fine, Uzi I won’t bother you or your friends” >You can tell from the tone of her voice that was painful for her to say >”Was that so hard? Now go away! Pretty please~” >She leaves the classroom >Emily and Zen look at you in shock “Uzi… That was great! You’re awesome” >Yes it was great! And you are awesome! >After a while of soaking in the praise it begins to be overwhelming and you start to blush “Thanks for helping me out again Uzi” >”We have to look after our own, remember?” >Once school ends you go to your house to get the things you need while Zen goes with Emily to her place >You join them >Emily and Zen have already begun going through the text book >You sit down next to Zen and listen to Emily harp on about something related to the test “Human skin is a very complex organ compromised of many parts, containing many nerve ending allowing them to feel whatever they touch, it’s also used for thermal insulation and protecting the internal organs” >”Uhhh… will that be on the test?” “Guys I already know all of this, the data driver had basically the whole curriculum on it” “That’s ok! You can just stay with us for company” >”Yeah, the more the merrier” >You wish you could just plop a USB in your head and skip studying >You begin to take out your things “Uzi why did you take that with you?” >”What? This is my note book” “Not what I meant, the book” >”Ah this? Well I thought we could talk details about the ritual” “We should study” >”We will! But let’s get you two acquainted with the basics” “Uzi…” >You begin to flip through the book >”Come on just give it a look first” >You place the book down open on the chapter with the ritual >Zen and Emily begin to read it “I… Uzi where are we going to get those parts?” >”That fleshie we got the book from surely got some lying around” “You want to go outside again?” >”Yup” “What if we come across one of those monsters again?” >“We’ll take a tunnel that leads us closer to that lander and move through nearby ruins that, and in the worse case scenario, we’ll have these!” >You take out one of your creations and present it to your friends >Emily and Zen are confused “A bundle of batteries?” >”A grenade!” “You brought an explosive into my house!?” >”Don’t worry! The pin is still in!” >Emily readies another objection but something in the book catches her attention >You know that look that’s on her face >Lust
>>308841 >Lust for power! >She saw the power she craves in the book! >She’s completely immersed in the ancient tome! >Almost as if she were in a trance.. >Oh and you she’s drooling… >Wait! The book is puling her soul in! Quick Emily snap out of it before you get body snatched! >You begin to shake Emily frantically “Eh! Uh… sorry I zoned out for a bit” >”Well what do you say? Changed your mind?” >She looks you and the screen and takes a few deep breaths “Uzi this idea is extremely dangerous and hinges on us getting very, very luck…. Lets do it” >Attagirl! “Uhm guys… You want to rob a technician?” >Oh Zen… right she may…not be fully on board with this >You see that Emily is having second thoughts as well >”Zen listen, I’m not forcing you to go, no shame if you stay” >She gives you a shaky smile “Like I said if you’re going to be doing something dangerous I want to go with you” >”Not going to try and talk me out of it?” “Doubt there’s anything I could say to stop you from going” >”Yeah… Thanks Zen” “We have to look after our own” >”We do” >You three share a cheer and you begin to go over your plan to get the parts you need >Emily and Zen chime in with their ideas and details you missed >You refine your plan for a few hours until you feel you can’t really improve it any more >“Alright! That’s about it I think, man I’m tired…” “Yeah it’s getting late, I want to go to sleep” >”I’ll walk Zen home, see you tomorrow Emily… oh no….” “What?” >”Emily… I didn’t study yesterday… and we didn’t really do any studying today…” “We’ll have another study session tomorrow...” >”Thank you!” >Friday rolls around >You spent yesterday night with Emily studying well into night >And you’re going to be having a sleepover at Zen’s tonight >You had some trouble convincing your parents to let you do this >But they agreed >You barely slept tonight due to all the cramming >But you managed to get through the test got a good grade too >B+ >You return home >Dad is still at work but mom is waiting for you >”Well Uzi, how did the test go?” >You hand her the graded paper >She smiles and hugs you “C-come here!” >She pulls you in as close as she can “Y-you earned t-that sleepover with your friends!” >”Thanks mom” “N-now go get your thing! Don’t k-keep y-your friends waiting!” >She lets you go and goes to her workshop >You pack the grenades and the book into your backpack >You also take three flash lights and a couple of glow sticks >Next you enter your dad’s office to get a pry bar so that you can open the manhole >You double check if you have everything you need and leave >Emily and Zen were waiting for you in the living room of Zen’s house >”Right time for part one of the plan” >You take the book out and hand it to Emily >”You two ready?” >She flips it open and they nod >”Great, listen guys I’m really tired you mind if I take a nap?” “Nope” “We should manage…” >Excellent, you’ll get some screensaver time while they work >This part is simple but brilliant >Emily and Zen detach your leg for a while >Then you simply slide off the ankle monitor off it and then they reattach it >And then you’re free without triggering any anti tamper mechanisms >You let your sister witches work while you sleep >You awaken some time later, a bit groggy but rested >You yawn and speak to Emily who’s standing above you >”So how did it go?” “Uhm… It could have went worse?” >She raises up a disembodied leg to you face >“Oh yeah that’s the one! Just slide the tracker off” >Emily does as you instructed >Weird, you tried to point at it with your hand but it didn’t move >Maybe it just got locked up from sleeping on the couch? >You’ll try to sit up and stretch >You don’t move >You can’t feel any of your limbs >You frantically look at your body >What the… >”Emily! What did you do!?” >You notice Zen behind her, she’s pouring over the book and holding one of your arms ”So, uh… we may have demounted the wrong leg at first…” >But why are your arms gone!? ”Well, I… dropped a nut on accident and… hit those release latches while trying to dig it out” >”Reattach them then!” “We’re trying! We don’t know how…” >”What do you mean you don’t know how! You have the book right there!” “I’m looking for instructions how to do it! Give me some time!” >This is the first time Zen is doing something like this, she’s doing her best >You calm down a bit >Emily sits you up >You try too keep your cool >But it’s not easy >You really didn’t plan on being only a torso “Maybe we should take you to miss Alice?” >Alice? >Hell no! >She can’t see you in this state!
>>308842 >She’ll think you’re some third rate acolyte if you’re just a… just a.. just a frigging nugget! >And then she’ll tell your parents! >No, you’re not leaving this room until you have your limbs back “Well, I wouldn’t be mad about having Uzi as a room mate” >”Don’t even joke about that!” “She’d still have to go to school, maybe you could put her in a baby carrier and wear that?” >“Emily! You too?” “Uzi we’re trying to relax a bit, don’t take it personally” >”Oh… sorry, please hurry” “We will, don’t worry… but you do look really cute right now” >You pout for a bit while Emily and Zen scour the book for a ritual that reattaches limbs “Alright I think that’s it, Emily pass me that nut” >Zen and Emily return your hands and legs to you >You finally get up from the couch and stretch >”Oh it’s good to have hands again, how much time did we burn?” “It’s half past nine” >Well it could have been worse and you’ll at least have an easier time sneaking out when everyone is asleep >You empty out your backpack and share the gear with your friends >You’ll only take what you need you expect to have to carry a lot back with you >Zen packs her grenades into her backpack “You’re sure these will work?” >”Like 81% sure” >You leave the house and head to the corridor with the manhole >The hallways are empty but you still try to keep a low profile >You slot the pry bar in the manhole lock and fiddle with it >You hear a click and you’re able to raise the manhole >You descend into the tunnels >Zen gets a little antsy but the occasional words of encouragement are enough to keep her focused >You dodge the occasional mining team on the night shift and reach the door sealing off the exit you need to use >Emily stops you before you open it “Uzi, I’m not saying I want to go back, but this is the last chance to turn away” >”Yeah, I know, Zen?” “You’re not getting rid of me” >You take a deep breath and open the door >You start to climb the ladder up >You have trouble opening the manhole covering the exit Zen and Emily need to help you lift it >You emerge into the ruined building >You’re in a basement of sorts, there’s lots of rubble everywhere, looks recent maybe some of the ceiling fell onto the manhole >You take a nearby flight of stairs up >The building is a ruined hospital >You must admit the place gives you the creeps >There are skeletons everywhere >You’re not afraid of those dead humies… but you swear those empty eye sockets are looking at you >You go to the eastern wing of the first floor >There is an equally ruined office building nearby and just past that is where that human lives >There is a hole in the wall >The sun is beginning to raise >You can get to the high-rise in relative safety by crawling through a trench of scrap and debris that formed from the decay of nearby buildings >The numerous scattered drone corpses prove that the safety is mostly relative >You stay in the shadow and move slow >Tortuously so >Once you reach the next ruin you try to get to the highest floor you can to get a good look of the area >Once you reach the third floor the stairs are blocked by debris >You find a hole in the wall that gives you a good view of the lander >You, Emily and Zen look at the small vessel and it’s surroundings >For a while nothing happens >Suddenly two murder drones leave the lander >They unfurl their wings and fly off in the opposite direction >Looks like this is your cue >You quickly run back to the ground floor and make a mad dash to the lander “Uzi, wasn’t there a third one?” >”Yeah, but what are the odds it’s here?” >You reach the lander and climb the same stack of crates as last time to look inside >The place seems empty >You try the front door and it’s open >You enter >”Alright Zen you stay on the look out me and Emily are going to go deeper and search for what we need” >You search for a bit and find a room with more treasures than you asked for >Many full murder drone bodies, just laying here, lifeless >Parts that you recognise from the book and some that weren’t anywhere in it >But you need to focus and only take what you need >No way you can carry a whole DD out of here >You call Emily over, she grabs Zen’s backpack and starts helping you with getting what you need >You place the arms in Zen’s backpack >Emily packs the legs into hers >And you packed the torso and headband into yours >”Alright that’s all, we need to scram” >You run out of the lander and towards the ruined office building >You reach the inside >You’re about to cheer but you notice Zen looking back at the lander >”Hey Zen what’s the hold up we need to… get going…” >You see what Zen is looking at
>>308843 >A dissembler has landed next to the vessel you just robbed >It’s the one with the hat wearing the trench coat >He’s looking in your direction >The X on his screen makes his intent known >”We need to run” >You try to make it to the back of the building as fast as you can >You need to round a few corners but then you’ll be out of here… >You hear the sound of crumbling concrete behind you >You turn your head to see the disassembler has burst through the wall >He’s hot on your tail, claws ready to rip you to shreds >You think fast and throw one of your grenades at him >The DD swipes at it as it flies towards him, swatting it away from him >It explodes in a flash of light making a loud bang >It doesn’t damage him but the light and the blast wave are enough to stagger him for a bit >You use this occasion to make some distance >You’re close to the exit just one more corner and… >A jumble of scrap lands just in front of you >The DD has thrown it to cut you off >You begin to run towards the stairs and then up them >When you reach the third floor you stop and signal to Zen and Emily >You all take out all the grenades you have and ready them up >When you hear the DD getting closer on the stairs you throw your grenades >The DD is lit up by the grenades, a few of them turn out to be duds… damn it >The thing lets out a horrible shire, that must have hurt him >They turn out to be less effective than you hoped they’d be >Sure his clothes are torn, his chassis is filled with shrapnel and his stinger is shattered but the DD is still more than effective >You’re out of grenades, so is Emily >Zen still has one in her hands and it looks like she’s paralysed by fear >The DD howls and starts to go up the stairs >He has a slight limp in his legs it doesn’t slow him much but maybe it’s enough to let you escape >You take Zen by the hand and run towards the nearby window >Emily follows and you jump out and fall to the snow bellow >You get up and run to the debris field >You attempt to get to the hospital but Zen trips >You can hear the howls of the DD, he’s about to leave the building >”Hide!” >You, Zen and Emily dive into piles of scrap that were closest to you >You try to steady your breath >You hear something heavy land in nearby snow >After a while you hear nearby footsteps >The DD is in the debris field with you >He walks right past you >Great he hasn’t seen you >He walks up to the place where Emily is hiding >He looks around for a while before moving on >Emily is in the clear as well >He gets closer to Zen >You can see she’s panicking >Come on Zen keep it together >The DD inspects the pieces of scrap nearby to him >He starts to digs through one >Thankfully not the one Zen is hiding in >Her screen is beginning to flash warnings >Please Zen, please, just hold on a while longer… >The DD reaches the bottom of the pile growls and begins to slowly walk away >You let out a quiet sigh >Oh man this was close >You look at Zen to see how’s she’s doing >Her screen is displaying an emotional distress warning >She’s grinning >Oh no… >Zen begins to cackle >The DD freezes in place >He runs… crawls on all fours towards the pile Zen is hiding in >He starts to dig through swiping his claws left and right >N-no! >This isn’t happening! >Uzi you dumbass! >What have you done!? >Why didn’t you listen to Emily!? >Why couldn’t you just stay home!? >This was all your idea! >Why did you take Zen with you on your suicidal escapade? >Well duh you wanted her to go with you so she could take all the blame if you got caught by the WDF >But guess what? Something else caught you >And now your reward for being such a great friend is to watch her get murdered! >We look after our own? What a sham!? >You can’t even look after yourself! >You constantly need help from Emily! >You’re a failure! >… >The DD has dug through most of the scrap pile >You notice the last grenade laying on the ground some distance away from you >You scramble to get out of the pile of scrap >You grab the grenade >The DD has dug Zen out of the pile and grabbed her with one of his claws >He’s about to pierce her with his other hand >You throw the grenade at his head with all your might >“Hey! Murder boy! Kop this!” >Time slows down for you as the grenade flies through the air >The DD turns his head towards you >The grenade is close to him >You see the X on his screen, you see his razor sharp teeth >You are grasped by fear >The grenade will make contact with him soon >He tries to stop it with his tail but his stinger is shattered

There was… that… horrible…” >She notices you’re in the tunnel and calms down >You walk through the tunnels in complete silence >You emerge back in the corridors of the outpost and return to Zen’s home >Once the door closes behind you all three of you take off your backpacks >Zen And Emily sit on the couch and begin to rest >You stay near the entrance and fall to your knees “Uzi? You ok?” >You begin to cry >”I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I’m so, so sorry!” >Emily and Zen walk up to you >”I’m a horrible friend! I should have known better! I’m so stupid!” >They look at you confused >”I could have gotten us killed! We almost got killed!” >Zen takes a step towards you >You begin to basically grovel at her feet >“I’m so, so sorry! I should have told you to stay! I only just took you along to have a safety net in case dad caught me” “Uzi… I wanted to go with you” >”Yes and I should have told you to stay! You nearly died!” “Come on Uzi don’t beat yourself up so much you saved her” >”She wouldn’t need saving if I just told her to stay home… You were right! I put her in danger for no good reason!” “Uzi … no good reason…” >It looks like she took offence to this >”Yes no good reason! And I put Emily in danger as well and I did it again!” >Zen slaps you on the face “Uzi! Not letting you throw your life away alone is a good reason!” >What? >Emily slaps you as well “Uzi! We both knew the risks and still went along with it! I’d say we are the bad friends for not getting an idea so dumb out of your head!” >Your digital waterworks begin to close >You begin to hug Zen and Emily >They return it >You hug it out for a while >”Thanks guys…” “Don’t worry you cry baby!” >Who is she calling a cry baby!? >She’s the one who almost burst into tears when Lizzy picked on her! “Hahahah…” >”...Yeah...” >Wait why did Emily slap you? “I dunno, it just felt appropriate” >Fair >You break the hug “So what about the ritual Uzi?” >You actually forgot about it due to all the emotion >You’re way too tired for that now >And you have the whole weekend ahead of you >”How about we go to sleep?” >Zen and Emily look as tired as you >They give nods and agreeing grunts >All three of you lay down on the couch and drift into sleep >You awaken the next day >Something feels different >You lay in a more comfortable position than you fell asleep in >And someone covered you with a blanket >Same thing for Emily >And Zen is gone >Did she do this? “Good morning Uzi” >You look up to see Sarah >What is she doing here? “I came to check on Zen, found all three of you asleep on the couch, carried Zen to her bed and tucked both of you in” >Oh, how long has she been here? “Since eight” >You slowly rise up and look at a nearby clock >12am >Well it did get very late yesterday >You get up from the bed “By the way you had a slumber party yesterday? That’s so cute! I’m surprised the place is still so clean” >Nice to know that if you didn’t make it yesterday you would be reported as missing immediately >You need to go back home and return the pry bar >Dad probably wont need it but it’s better to be safe than sorry >You leave, Sarah waves you goodbye and Emily grumbles in her sleep >You return home, dad is already at work >Mom rushes out of her workshop as fast as she can when she hears the door open “U-uzi!? Y-you’re back home!” >”Yes mom, I came to pick up a few things I forgot” “Oh… You’re g-going out a-again…” >She look really sad for some reason >”Yeah, do you need any help?” “N-no… I’m j-just not used to not having you around the house for so long…” >She leans her cane against a wall and takes you hands into hers “Let me just enjoy your company for a while” >She shifts her head to have her good eye on you >You think about yesterday again >If you made one mistake you wouldn’t be here right now >Mom would be worried
>>308845 >What would she do if she found out you sneaked outside and got yourself killed? >You hug your mom, she’s surprised at first but quickly returns it >”I love you mom” “Love you too Uzi” >Mom returns to her workshop >You place the pry bar back in your dad’s office >You return to Zen’s place >Emily and Zen are up and Sarah is already gone >Alright time to start this ritual >First, who is going to be the lucky recipient of this blessing? >You? >You would love to be able to look down on people but your expertise is needed for the ritual to go smoothly >Zen? >No, not a good idea with her current… condition >So that leaves Emily >”You up for it Emily?” >She responds quickly “Yes!” >That’s the enthusiasm we need! >You should start by readying the new body >You attach the limbs to the torso >Looks good, you pull on the arms to check if they won’t fall out >Right, now you need to transplant Emily’s core and head >Emily lays down on the table you used for assembling the body >You open her service hatch and reach in for her core >”Ready?” “Ready” >You flip the switch on her core >Her screen goes dark and limbs limp >The book called this a from of anaesthesia >You don’t know if the process is painful but you would much rather ensure Emily doesn’t find out >You detach the wires connecting Emily’s core to her body and pull it out >Zen opens the new body’s service hatch and shines her flash light inside >You place the core in the correct mount and connect the wires >Looks good >Zen begins to double check your connections while you remove Emily’s head from her original body >You take off her helmet and place the sensor band on her head connecting it to one of the open ports on her head >Zen gives you a thumbs up and helps you connect the head “Is this all?” >”I think so” “Do the honours then” >You reach your hand inside the open hatch and flip the switch on Emily’s core >You close the hatch >Emily’s screen lights up >It displays runes “New peripherals detected, searching for drivers….” “No drivers found, defaulting…” >The runes disappear and Emily’s eyes appear >The sensor band begins to shine with blue light “Ugh… I feel weird… did it work?” >Emily gets of the table >She towers above you >Wow she’s actually kinda scary now >She looks at her new body, inspecting her arms and legs “Wow… this is… amazing!” >Sure is >You raise your hand up to high five Emily >She smacks your hand >The force of your hands touching pushes you away, you feel sharp pain in your arm >”Ow!” “Sorry! Sorry, I need to be gentler…” >She high fives Zen by gently putting her hand up to hers >She’s strong that’s great! >Lets check if the weapons work >”Emily! Claw hands! Now!” >She looks at you confused before understanding what you mean >She flicks her hands >Nothing happens “Uhmmm…. How do I change my hands?” >You and Zen shrug >Emily spends some time looking at her hands >She puts all her effort into attempting to turn her hands into something else >There are several loading icons on her screen and you can hear her fans working at full power >After a while Emily exclaims loudly and her right hand retracts “Aha!” >You look at her wrist >“Where is the claw?”
>>308846 “Uhm…” >You look inside Emily’s wrist socket >It’s empty >You check the book “The disassembler modular combat arm has a mount allowing for installation of many weapon systems… blah blah blah… how to mount new weapons…” >You need get weapons separately? >Oh that’s a scam! >While you read the book Emily has managed to get a hang of her new arms and flipped both of them between hands and empty sockets a few times >”Well, we’ll think about how to get weapons later, how about we go to the wings?” >Emily returns to exserting mental effort to control her body >Two metal wings unfurl from her back >Cool! >Good to know at least that comes in as standard >You and Zen begin to touch Emily’s wings “Wow! Can you move them?” “I.. uh dunno? I don’t even feel you touching them” >Emily hides her wings >”That only leaves the tail… try moving it” >You look at the limp wire with a stinger connected to it >Emily puffs up and closes her eyes and it begins to move >”Come on! Put your back into it!” “It feels weird Uzi…” >The tail begins to swing widely from side to side “That’s it try to… wow!” >You need to duck to dodge getting hit by the stinger >Emily shrieks and grabs her tail into her hands “Sorry! It’s hard to control this thing” >She lets her tail go and it falls limply to the ground >”That’s enough tests for today… we should put you back in your body Emily” “Why? This is so cool!” ”Uzi is right, I don’t think it would end well if someone else saw you” >”Yeah… and that body needs oil to sustain itself, and we don’t have a source of that yet so we shouldn’t waste it” “Alright…” >You and Zen reverse the ritual and place Emily back in her normal body “I liked being tall…” >”You’ll get to have that body soon enough, now we should try to hide it somewhere” >You think for a while before deciding on placing the headless body in a closet in Zen’s house and covering it up with a drape “So that’s that I think? What do we do now?” >”Emily you said you had a third controller right?” “Yup, found it two days ago” >”Split screen co-op sounds good right now, what do you say?” >Emily agrees >You need to explain to Zen what a video game is and what co-op means but she also agrees
Having to phonepost because my fresh Fedora install is triggering this site's anti-VM warning for some reason. I'm in the process of refreshing the software on my PC and my art set up is still a work in progress. Hoping to figure something out to make this tolerable because pen pressure does not stick lol
Part a) >>306122 >Things didn’t go well >Uzi looked rather mad after Lizzy spoke with her >Flipped you off and all >Maybe she felt you were dishonest because Lizzy was speaking on your behalf? >You wanted to speak with her during the next rave but she didn’t come >Is she avoiding you? >You chat with Lizzy about what you should do ”Like I said purple doesn’t want to own up to her mistakes” >”Мне кажется, она, возможно, неправильно поняла… Мне действительно нужно пойти и поговорить с ней” (I feel like she may have misunderstood… I really should go and talk with her) ”Don’t you think that one second chance is enough?” >”Думаю, мне хочется посмотреть на нее на экране и спросить, действительно ли она так сильно меня ненавидит” (I think I want to look her in the screen and ask if she really hates me that much) “She does!

>>308871 I hope Doll sees through this bitch's plot and befriends Uzi again.
Tessa doesn't sound like a good person. She herself claims to consider drones friends, but when she saw Uzi, she simply said, "I want!" like a five-year-old girl seeing a toy in a store. Lying bitch.
But more importantly, there's no human male in sight. How will Emily be able to take full advantage of her new body's advantages, such as height and strength that surpasses even the weakest human?
>>308868 What do you use for drawing on a Linux setup?, Cute Keet, btw. T. Windows boomer and soon also an Itoddler. >>308755 Not my thing, but if I really had to, I'd apply tickle torture & forced orgasms.
>>308880 >Implying Emily's current goal is not literally to drag a technician kicking and screaming from their spire and DDs already and stockholm him into affection She knows exactly what she's up against anon, the question is, do the DDs?
>>308879 Also it was pretty clearly stated so far that Emily isn't attracted to males of the fe variety, human or otherwise. Were that not the case Tessabduction would be priority no 1.
All drones are as dumb as bricks! Every time I demand products from the drone behind the counter, they demand money! They're violating the Second Law of Robotics!
But the worst part is, when I call the police and demand that the police drones arrest the offending drone, they also refuse! Why does the Union accept criminal drones into the police force?!
>>308885 >I think Orthodox, if I remember correctly It's open to interpretation. Maybe Robo-Christianity is its own thing and Emily crossed herself with one finger because that's how they do it instead of the whole hand like in Western Christianity or three fingers like in Eastern Christianity (or two fingers in the case of the Old Believers)?

>>308865 I'm not really good at explaining but I hope this helps at least a little. I use references a lot too so if you want what I go for in specific, you can reference the same thing I do; I usually ref anime-manga art from the years between 2007-2011 on sites like gelbooru, and I also reference art by adam warren a lot (author of the comic "empowered" and artist of the sexually ambiguous raiden pic that most people would recognize him for) ₍₍⚞(˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶)⚟⁾⁾ I can also make a little leg drawing collage if that helps
>>308882 I use a XP Pen tablet though tbh most tablets have solid Linux support. Some even have official support, but Open Tablet Driver will probably have your tablet supported just fine. As far as programs go, Windows/Mac-only programs are a mixed bag on well they run. If you're a Krita user, you're in for a smooth time. My workflow uses Clip Studio Paint, so I'm still working out what will make it smooth since the pen pressure barely ever sticks.
Wonder what Copper-9 looks like during the day. We only ever see it at night other than that brief bit of dawn we saw at the end of episode 4 to confirm Uzi's 100% a vampire now and she burns in sunlight just like the others.
>>308899 Probably, like in Antarctica on earth, sometimes the sun shines so hard it burns your eyes, and sometimes the sunlight cannot penetrate the storms.
>>308903 Yes, snow (THIS FUCKING SNOW) reflects light perfectly, so perfectly that it can actually burn your eyes, it’s no wonder that the first sunglasses (or rather, the prototype) were invented by the peoples of the far north.
>>308871 >"full 30% of salvage" >Therefore implying over 70% of drones killed at THIS SPIRE ALONE are permadead >Note that this is the only spire actively trying not to permakill their targets
I don't know if a peaceful resolution is possible anon...
>>308847 >Uzi eternally doomed to be short + weak + ugly because somehow her other coven members are even more retarded than herself and can't und see understand the "for dummies" manual >Uzi's revenant possesing all the classical problems of revivals, somehow not even Uzi has realized her "ghoul transformations" might not be a psychological issue, but otherwise being the best necromancer one could ask for >Emily putting the "mommy" in "maiden, mother, crone" with her ASCSNDANT FORM
Absolute kek anon, great green, can't wait to see how the whole Doll bit gets resolved
>>308911 >>308914 it's 30% that's meant to go personally to Tessa (marked as unfixable) but a certain project requires extra workers and shaleholders wont be happy if as many of them as possible aren't thrown at it >Tessa is a real bitch The drones that she fixes, mind wipes and keeps on the ranch call her mother
>>308915 >Tessa, sitting inside of a literal mountain of corpses directly created by her closest friends on her orders. >The last time we saw her scolding her subordinates for straight up killing people against her orders, and doing so to double the amount he even theoretically had to disable, it was literally a mild scolding. >This same time established this was Ns standard practice. >Infinitely more suprised and upset that workers tried to DO something about any of this than by the aforementioned continuous massacre of drones that she KNOWS are fully sapient and completely innocent people, ones that she likewise knows 100% includes children, since Hope exists. >How could you possibly hold the necromancer responsible for the things her animates do? She's only the sole person capable of stopping and/or lessening their actions?
>>308907 >haha, guess we're both freaks >we're a coven, we look out for each other >guys I was such a bad friend (no you're not, WE'RE the bad friends) >group hug! I still liked it but you have to admit there was a good bit of schmaltz
>>308921 Yeah alright fair... this was the first time in my life I tried writing something emotional-ish, I'm glad it's still enjoyable despite my shortcomings
>>308919 >>308918 Our way of life, galaxy-wide Paved with the cores of those who've died Unslakable tide of drone fucker pride A torrent that can't be satisfied We sacrifice for paradise Anything less, will not suffice Citizens rise, Drone lovers rise Drone-1, rise up to the skies
>>308923 The last time I tried to write something emotional, during the test reading I felt such a strong sense of shame that I deleted all the green, so trust me, anon, you're doing really well.
>>308931 >Tessa's literal goal is to take Uzi and completely reformat her mind into an adorable, adoringly naive woman literally new to the world who will love the T unconditionally >In addition, for reasons of pure personal desire, said Uzi is to be given platinum blond hair and, presumably, a complete makeover(at least in terms of damage, repairs, chassis polishing, ect) >Literally the only way this could be MORE bimbofying is if she gets DDd, and in fact her situation fits the tags BETTER than Vs did since it includes the mental changes
>>308934 I've got a bad memory, was there some justification earlier in the green for why Tessa thinks it's okay to do that to the C9 workers or is she just like that
>>308934 >her situation fits the tags BETTER than Vs did since it includes the mental changes I don't think maid V would have been worse at chess than a dinobot.
>>308937 >was there some justification earlier in the green No, not yet at least >is she just like that Rogue workers need to be wiped before repairs... goverment regulations no way around that, Tessa didn't like it at first... then one of the drones she took for herself called her mom...
>>308938 would you rather have that or a season 2 where all of the characters suddenly behave nothing like themselves and die so that the new creative lead's OC can have the spotlight?
>>308937 Just like that, though it does seem to be a kind of "everyone else's thoughts/ideas/attitudes/hopes/dreams are equally worthless except maybe my childhood friends" situation rather than a "drones are toys not people" one: she just sees nothing wrong with reformatting the bodies and minds of others according to her will, whether they be human or drone (hence the mandatory marraige bit that only her own manor crew would be logically exempt from).
>>308952 Actually yes from what their maker said of drone-sapien reproduction. Just only a little bit (gradual change of metal to flesh) unless they are hosting a full blown solver fragment(like 37).
>>308956 Actually in hindsight this might be a "only because Akita is biologically related to an active solver host" thing instead of a standard solver-sapien bit. I don't think anyone has asked about the "species" in general yet.
>>308968 But IS it related to the solver, or are they like separated DD limbs and [EDIT]ed objects: things influenced by the solver, but absolutely capable of being manipulated and transformed by further configurations.
>>308952 >>308953 I am around. My personal thoughts: >not all sapiens are capable of it, only those with a singularity inside them like a drone are capable of it since they need to draw from matter reserves >sapiens are more about powers based on their bodies instead of stuff like teleportation or being able to make objects hover in the air >usually means that they're more about self-modification >some sapiens do get Solver (the entity)-esque influence over technology That is what I am going with for now, though I might change singularity-less sapiens to have much reduced powers than a sapien with one if at least to keep reproductive options open. In my mind's eye, they're meant to be the new humanity on par with dronekind with a "normal" sapien being a Worker counterpart and the sapiens created through Solver processes (having a singularity) being Solver host counterparts, so I'm trying to make things go in that direction with my work. I'm not playing too tight with what they can or can't do to keep interesting ideas open, and I would suggest you do too.
I think at some point after im done with Keeter's story, I'll explore drone-sapien society and see what that's like, but that is way far off from happening.
>>308977 Isn't it kind of the case that there can be no more "solver workers/sapiens" though? I remember reading something about how the solver got "shattered" and there's a limited and depleting number of singularities still in existence right?
>>308978 Akita was made years after it happened. All it really means is that Solver power is no longer consolidated into a singular entity (brand new "fragment" entities now exist alongside the exsisting singularities inside hosts), and there is no longer a main host. Former hosts now must be able to rely on their own without the demonic backup of the Solver as an entity to help them. Solver users need to consume matter to keep their stores up. If not, things don't heal right or at all. As for Solver-infected Workers, there's a few ways they can still get it.

It mentally and spiritually and arguably physically raped a shy, gentle maid into a sexed exhibitionist up monster whose existence is dedicated to spreading her existential pain to anyone powerless to defend themselves from her who's unfortunate enough to be within reach of her, nothing about Uzi is more disgusting than Emergence-ing V in every way imaginable.
>Murder Drones S2 comes out >It's revealed that Uzi and by extension The Solver died off-screen >The fandom is speculating like crazy as to what or who could have killed Uzi >3 episodes pass... >No answer or hint >4 episodes pass.... >Still no answer >Finally the last episode is posted >At the last 30 seconds the death of Uzi is finally brought up >N practically looking at the audience says >"She fell down the stairs." What do?
>>309027 (me) Speaking of, how high do you think V's tolerance for rape scenes would be? Like, would she just laugh them off, laugh to hide the pain and say "That's literally me," be unable to even fake it and just tap out, what?
>>309036 Considering V liked murdering people in front of their familes and torturing them while claiming to feel nothing, she'd probably just have the same response
>>309041 She might hate it but she knows she can't live without some form of affection or affirmation. To hear from another person that for just one moment she's not a total monster. She's only a robot with FEEEEEEELANS, ya know.

>>309091 I still say Doll would think it'd be irresponsible of her to have children, knowing that what she has is hereditary. When I get around to finishing that post-Good Ending greentext about Uzi's first dive into her mind palace and seeing Doll again for the first time since she died, you'd better believe Doll's gonna tell Uzi the same. Especially since on top of any kids she has being liable to get AbsoluteSolver, there's THE Absolute Solver in there, Uzi has no idea how close that thing got to escaping into one of her kids when they were being born. But she also completely understands why Uzi did it at the same time.

I am admittedly not completely sure exactly what situation Tessa is supposed to be in AJ DiSpirito’s video, but it does not look pleasant. Nevertheless, things can and will get worse if you tempt fate in situations like these.
>>309306 Hey, Tessa's got nothing holding her back now, right? That means she can beat the crap out of those noble bastards for everything they did to her!
>>309303 None yet, but insofar as AM is aware the literal hand of fate ifself protects Tessa's parents: he has seen even his most surefire traps and amushes foiled by a combination of mousetrap-tier shenanigans and the miraculous ability of the elder Elliots to move in exactly the right lengths at exactly the right speeds to avoid any triggers he places.
The Elliots themselves have no idea why it sometimes feels like their movements are being literally pupeteered by some invisible outside force, but given the Final Destination style disasters they've seen it prevent, they've decided to just roll with it. In other news, Tessa is jnsure how to feel about the fact her parents apparently share her passion for occultism, and have been leaving wads of cash, bottles of alcohol, and even the occasional drone tied to the celings as "reimbursement."
>>309312 >A girl who somehow has the skills to fight against two lazy aristocratic assholes I really think she has a chance, she could use a stone, for example.

>>309315 You have to remember, anon, that James was an absolute unit in cannon whose instinctive reaction to seeing his daughter level a gun at him was "nice form." I would not take those odds.
>>309306 Is this the curse of "would rather be less"? As in:
Somewhere, there's a man. He doesn't want to be where he is. There's no place he'd rather be less. This man is suffering. But inevitably, he gets used to it. He becomes calm enough to distance himself from his misery, just a little.
And without meaning to, he thinks of a place he'd rather be less. a place which hurt him in ways he's currently not being hurt. whether it's a few feet away, or in another horrible universe, he's glad he's where he is, and not there. This is just a fleeting thought.
But then he's there. And he'll stay there until he thinks of a place he'd rather be less.
This man hurt people close to me. Just bear that in mind.

>>309363 A translator won't be able to properly convey the meaning and emotion that writefag inserted into the text. A clear example is this green:>>309358
If you paste it into a translator, it turns into gibberish: some lines become completely meaningless. A translator's main skill is conveying the meaning, and I'm incredibly bad at it. My best best would be improvisation, or, more accurately, ad libbing.
>>309370 .....after >she gets this last upgrade.... Hey, I'm not judging! In fact, I'm very much in for it, whoever is lucky enough to have her will be happy forever.
>>309381 >It's a postcard scribbled with Oogi nubs >"Bist Emplyoee" >Below the eloquent writing is a mangled drawing of a Joblin drinking coffee out of a thimble >Of course you would need to be really drunk to even tell that's what the drawing was of
>>309384 I think that's how they work. If our current N were to be killed or destroyed, then he would return to his latest stable release before his termination. How far back are we talking?, no idea.
>>309385 except when J lands on C9 with Tessa she has memories up to the moment of being killed by Uzi and we see what is presumably her soul when her solverpede form is killed
Please leave N's tummy alone. First he has it filled with rocks, then he has it ripped out of his body. The last thing he needs is an entire Anon side of it, they're filthy and no one knows where they've been.
Remember the cope theory that Anons came up with where Doll was totally still alive and inside Cyn's stomach which would somehow be instrumental to her defeat?
>>309410 Now I'm thinking about Tessa's hellscape from the music video being altered after Cyn ate Doll's core, followed by her defeat and ending up in Uzi...
>>309414 Wonder what Uzi's mind palace is like, considering it's not used as a torture dimension like the Absolute Solver's is. All I know for sure is that it would have around the clock ambient nightcore.
>>309377 toffee or candyasbestos; Incredible mentally I'll and scammed 100 bucks of multiple people. They said about "problematic people" While they draw guro, vore and worse stuff.
>Fun Late Afternoon Canon/OC Facts: after getting dislodged during the transfer of the Absolute Solver's mind palace's contents into Uzi's, Tessa has stayed the fuck away from Outpost 3. After fifty years of nonstop torture she can't stand the sight of her "friends" anymore and wants nothing to do with anywhere their new admin is at. >She's currently roaming Copper-9, visiting the other drone settlements. They're charming places (unlike anywhere that would accept THEM, holy fuck Mum and Dad were right, I should have just left them all to rot) and she likes them very much. >Except Outpost 6. She doesn't like Outpost 6 either. Outpost 6 is jerks, just like Pod 6.
>>309411 doesn't Uzi briefly have Doll's UI after eating the solver or something? I can't remember how exactly it popped up but it was seen after her death/assimilation. and either way she's still around as a ghost
>>309424 Yeah, when Uzi starts freaking out after eating the AS singularity her vision flashes red as well as yellow and purple and at one point her UI is replaced with Doll's UI while shifting to a much redder purple than her normal purple.
>>309433 It's also neat to compare Doll's UI to Uzi's. Doll interestingly has a scythe and a bleeding knife notably while Uzi has more icons there. Most of which seems generic, to me at least. They could be icons related to computer hacking stuff?
>>309416 >Tessa is shambling across the snow >per her usual miserable existence not being discarded by Cyn >when she suddenly hears the Russian anthem from... somewhere >there is no conventional concept of space in here >it gets louder and louder >before Doll crashes in front of her from the sky >"Well aren't you a sight for sore eyes!" >[What the fuck]
>>309380 >N squares off against himself >they hug >and kiss >cyn and uzi stand there awkwardly as the two boy drones swap spit, their tails curling together >lizzy starts cheering from the sideline as she snaps photos >the Ns fly off to live a happy life together, leaving two stinky femcels behind
>>309445 >She remembers she's the main solver host >She can make illusions now! >Very realistic illusions... >Cue a very long morning
>N tries to climb into her vent, as is his custom >Finds a thoroughly overheating Uzi unconcious and her bedroom completely oil splattered >Freaks out and refuses to let her leave his side for the next month >Uzi is torn between comforting him and the shame that would come from revealing the "why" of that particular night >Especially given that doing so would mean explaining things to her now equally worried parents...
>>309444 Filthy westerner, glorious soviet Doll is never defenceless!
>Detonating someone with the solver is now an instinctive reaction to suprises for her >Lizzy finds this insanely hot, but now must use her patented "somebody else" method whenever her bestie goes "in-the-zone" >Failing that, she has "Lizzie on a stick" as a backup, but carrying the cutout is so inherently bueno that she saves it for a last resort
do you think Alice would step outside her comfort zone (tech and improvised weaponry) to study abnormal biology in an effort to understand and cure Asenath's condition?
>>309454 I'm impressed for the lack of vorefags on these threads, as this show gets its fair share of mouth shots, some of the most infamous ones featuring Cyn.
>>309457 I'm glad I'm not a vorefag. Unfortunately the good lord, like the cruel bastard that he is, afflicted me with some things a little bit goofier than that shit.
>>309465 >>309466 >J Jobs so much that she replaces her stinger with sex toys to better fit her new role as a morale officer PLAPING THE JOBBER BOT UNTILL THE SHARE PRICE GOES UP!
>>309471 >"And so on the eleventh day of the first month of the twentieth six year the femdrone returned and they all funposted happily ever after" >The write flag closes the book >The Anon, snug in his Itanon pijana lying under his femdrone blanket and hugging his bunny plushie cheers >But the write flag may not rest yet >Akita, wearing her dino pattern pijana demands a Sonic fanfiction reading before going to sleep
>>309459 I'm just saying, no one would stop you if you decided to make a thread specifically for that... After all, who am I to judge with my gender bender and reverse traps/androgynous drones fetishes.
