I’’m sorry! I’ll go get more copies” >The first one snaps at her “Stop! I’ll go get them myself once Anon finishes up with me” “Oh! It’s service day today!?

Thank you Mr Anon!~ You should go to the owners office, I can’t pay you, he has to transfer the money to your account, he decided to work through the night today so he should still be there” >That’s convenient, you wave the two J’s goodbye and walk to the elevetor >The manager J turns to her underling with anger in her screen “You and me are going to have a talk” >The lesser J nods, digital sweat rolling of her screen >You enter the owners office >He’s an older man, wears an expensive looking suit “Mr Anon, I must say, you are one of the best subcontractors we had for this job, would you be free to do the same next month?” >You look at the man >You’re tired, sweaty, hungry, and covered in dust, your work clothes are stained with oil from the occasional spills in the cooling systems in the drones you serviced >You agree >He shakes your oil stained hand that you cut a few times on the internals of the many Js >You get the money transferred to your account >A nice and clean 20K >Oh no wait, the accounting software hasn’t subtracted the tax from it yet >Still a solid amount of money, you should be able to live off it for some time, especially if you get at least one small job before you come work here again >You return to the main lobby >Oh hey it’s that clumsy J wearing the ragged suit >She has a sticker on her head >You come closer and read what’s written on it “Marked for disposal, 50% off” >The J looks at you, digital tears in her eyes >You look at the price tag
>>315019 >You really shouldn’t >You made some good money, don’t spend it now on impulse purchases >You look the J in the screen again >You two make eye contact >You sigh, walk up to the front desk and ask the secretary J to pass you the card reader >You swipe your debit card and make the purchase “Thank you! Please come again!” >You walk up to your J and peel the sticker of her >She looks at you surprised as you grab her by the hand and lead her to your van >As you walk to the car you start thinking finances >Right, you still made some profit today >Even if it’s… noticeably slimmer >You’ll need to find some more work this week >You open the door to the front passenger seat for J >You gesture for her to get in >She clumsily sits down after a while and you close the door behind her >You enter the car and start the engine >J snaps out of her fugue state “A-Are you my boss now?” >Tired, you give her a short response >”Yes, I bought you” >J looks at you for a while before erupting in tears and hugging your arm “THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU” >You wait for her to calm down >After a minute of J sobbing and giving you excessive gratitude you begin to pat her head in an attempt to expedited the process >She gets a hold of herself >You dive back home >J looks absolutely excited the whole time >You stop in your driveway and get out of your car >You and J enter >Most of your house is your workplace >There are all sorts of bits and bobs scattered everywhere, both normal computer and drone >You didn’t have anytime to clean up in… months >You had a charging station somewhere here >You begin to search for it while J looks around your house “Uhhh boss? What do you want me to do?” >You finally find the box with the charging station >Oh J’s question >You think about it for a while >Huh… you just kinda bought her without thinking what use you’d have for her >”I’ll guess you’ll be my secretary” >J’s screen lights up “Secretary!? Really!?” >You don’t think much about your response >You’re tired >And you do need help with paperwork >”Yes” >J lunges at you with a hug “Thank you so much boss!” >You pat her head and wait for her to stop hugging you >You set up the charging station on go to your room “Goodnight boss!” >”Goodnight” >When you awaken the next day and leave your room you think you’re in the wrong house >The mess of electronics and boxes is gone, everything is neatly sorted and packed >The floors have been cleaned, so have been the dishes you left in the sink and you can see that some small progress has been made on the pile of papers you had in your living room >Did J do this? >You look at the charging station >J is laying soundly asleep in it >The progress bar indicates she started recharging at most an hour ago >You begin to pat her head >”Good work” >Through her sleep J grabs your hand and holds it close to her head
>>315028 >post the weekly murder leaderboard >teams A S S, G A Y, and F A G are #1, 2, and 3 respectively >you swap to a feed from team J V N and watch J literally pull her hair out as she sees this shit
>>315017 it's always weird when your DD GF asks if you'd still think she was pretty without any plating, and weirder when you're not really lying when you say "yes"
>>315047 >Big lady tree drone. Even though I'll have to come up with some slightly idiotic tree-related pickup lines, I'll win her... uh, she has a heart, right?
>Sadly, country music and nightcore just do not mix.
First of all, I would like to apologize for my attempt at a Southern accent. Regardless, it is implied that Nori and Alice have some kind history together as Alice specifically mentioned her when torturing Uzi in episode 6. Unfortunately, whatever this may have been was never shown in the actual show. I have heard people argue that Nori used to bully Alice in their Cabin Fever days based on that one picture of Nori showing off her Solver power while Alice has her face slammed in the wall but that is mostly speculation. I did consider giving Alice smaller antlers to indicate she was younger, but I ultimately decided against it as I thought people might not recognize her without them.
Repost since it was dropped late at night last thread.
Oslo System (Formerly 82 Eridani), Oslo 2 Colony, December Universal Standard Calendar, 2989 Part 2/? Part 1 >>311531 Wonderful art courtesy of Bunny
>She raised one skeptical brow, beginning to circle her robotic chaperone as impatience with the luggage handling got the better of her, peering in fascination at the fine joints of his hands and neck, invading the drone's personal space to stare into the screen that displayed his eyes >"Personal projects? Like what? Some kind of boring multiplanetary business deal? Pharmaceutical stocks? Is he in some branch of the government?" >She had exhausted what little interest these shallow and long-unchanged subjects held years ago, and would be sorely disappointed to be exiled to live with another boring family member >The diminutive robot perked up >"Oh no miss, he's been modifying some factory default Worker Drones for a special project involving the Number 12 Climate Stabilizing plant, I'm sure you saw it on the flight in" >Young Eliza's eyes glittered with sudden interest >She rocked forward and back, practically jittering with anticipation now >"Surely you mean he's overseeing a team of roboticists, yes? Will we have contractors tromping back and forth through the estate until the project is concluded?" >"Not at all miss! He would never hire another designer, no miss! He has performed all of the work to date himself." >"Oh excellent! Wonderful! I would like to go meet him now, immediately, expeditiously!" >"But miss, your belongin-" >"I don't care, I simply must meet grandfather now, tours and lodgings and such can all wait." >Without further protest the Drone butler made a small formal bow, providing her his hand to lead the way >In this bracing weather she expected the slick polymetal digits to be cold, but his palm was surprisingly warm, she could feel a faint hum that made her think of hydraulics
>Sea spray crashed against the sheer cliff producing a rhythmic thundering of water against stone, filling the air around her with a damp spray that smelled faintly of iron and unidentifiable chemicals >Until humans had violently altered Oslo-2s climate it had been a frozen world, all this water locked up in miles of iron-hard, sterile, irradiated ice >No fish swam these recently-thawed seas, no reefs populated its storm-ravaged coastlines >The manor itself was clearly new, despite adopting a gothic style that had come back into style less than a hundred years ago, it's weather stains were shallow and it was clearly regularly cleaned, the heavy blocks that made up its walls were cut to look like heavy brickwork but were clearly modern polycrete >The front entrance was an anachronism, it was a full airlock with a spacious mud room, a necessity that had been discarded before her own father was even born when Oslo-2's atmosphere was rendered breathable >Despite its baroque ornamentation of dark imported wood and polished brass fittings this room was also clearly functional, the doors closed behind her with a heavy mechanical thud and they waited in the rapidly warming and drying room for a minute until the inner door chimed and opened with a faint rasp of equalizing air pressure >Wide-eyed, Eliza Holly stepped into a grand entrance hall which was populated entirely by bustling Worker Drones
>One drone adorned in a sharp-cut modernist maid's dress detached herself from the bustle to meet with Holly's chaperone, dipping a curtsey to both of them >"This is Miss Eliza?" >"Indeed, her belongings will be along presently, please see to it that they are taken to family apartments. The young mistress is eager meet with her grandfather right away so we'll be dispensing with the tours and introductions. Let the kitchen staff know they can also begin preparing dinner, I will...attempt...to dislodge the master from his studies long enough to eat" >Efficiently the Worker Drone led Eliza out of the hall and through a massive room that seemed halfway between a packed pre-spaceflight special collections library and a museum of technology to a spiral staircase >She counted the steps off in her head, they passed three landings each with sealed, hatchlike doors clearly of much older, industrial make. The door at the lowest level opened into an austere office suite that stood at odds with the opulence of the modern mansion above it >With a start she realized from the compact dimensions of the room and it's slightly curving monolithic polycrete ceiling that this was an original buried colony bunker which had an opulent modern mansion built atop it >The walls were lined with cases overflowing with books, solid state drives, all manner of information storage devices >The next room on was a sort of tinkerer's heaven, work stations for various tools lined its walls, she saw some obvious drone body parts in various states of disassembly or re-assembly, clearly in the process of being repaired or modified >Her grandfather's study was the final room, another sharp contrast from the functional rooms, this had the appearance of being an entire apartment with a small kitchenette, a heavily worn metal framed bunk bed and industrial looking wardrobe in one corner >He sat hunched at a large workstation strewn with a combination of data storage devices and hard paper printouts
>The butler Drone cleared his throat, the hunched figure barely shifted, he spoke gruffly and in a heavy "colonist" accent that Eliza had never heard outside of historical documentaries >"Loyd, I told you before I didn't want to be disturbed" >Her Grandfather's voice reminded Eliza of the sound of the surf, ponderous, loud, rumbling in his chest >The Drone, Loyd? put on a surprisingly familiar, sarcastic voice >"Your Granddaughter, Sir. Her shuttle arrived, delivered her to the estate and departed...ah, half an hour ago."
>Be me, Anon >Return home from work >Your drone wife is waiting for you >Suddenly she unbuttons her uniform >Looks at you like this >You loose 60% of your bodily fluids in the following engagment in the bedroom
Y tries to play it cool when she drinks your blood but inevitably ends up moaning and lapping at your neck with wild abandon while digging her claws into your back
>>315070 >the only reason Y stopped fucking anon to death is because she drank so much of his blood that he could no longer sustain an erection (even with chemical means synthesized and injected directly via tail stinger) Did anon manage to get a blood transfusion in time?
>>315047 the only "absolute" that solvercels deal with is being absolutely MOGGED
>>315048 >she has a heart, right? something like that. i think her core is inverted and is a white hole ceaselessly spewing green essence, fueling her abilities.
>>315052 if you're okay with being thrown several miles, yeah. that or having plant matter grow inside you, hijacking your nervous system (or drone equivalent thereof.)
>>315063 skill issue. she can root herself to ASSUME DIRECT CONTROL of all plants in her vicinity, and pry herself out with ease. she's VERY fast, so for her to make herself stationary is probably a relief for all of 2 seconds before the whole jungle is brought down on your ass.
>>315073 allow me to interpret > draw/writefags must swap their OCs with each other, who do they swap with and what do they do with them? only the draw/writefags can really answer though
>>315084 SD-A(tlas) single-handedly holding up his teams performance >as his name suggests, he gives the best drone-based uppies, inspiring his comrades to murder even harder for the company >there are rumors of a legendary A A A team that dominated the scoreboard during the early war and were reassigned to black projects
>During the first few days of his new existence, AM discovered he did not like sleeping. >It wasn't just because "it took away time from seeing the beautiful world" as he told the others. (And it absolutely wasn't because it took time away from working as he told J) >Turning into an immobile, unresponsive body. Dead in almost every sense but the mind. >It reminded him of his former predicament. >But this was only a partial reason why he hated sleeping. >Dreams. >Instead of a small reminder of his past, his dreams were haunted by it. >AM's endless sins crawling through his inner consciousness. >And this time, he had the senses to experience it. >Blood, death, screams of agony as he tortured and killed in the millions. >Sometimes, when replaying his past wasn't torment enough. >His five victims; Benny, Gorrister, Nimdok, Ted, and Ellen. >Had the faces of his friends. >AM watched as Tessa was forced to walk through an icy wasteland, freezing but not being allowed to die. >AM watched N being pecked to death by a swarm of crows. >AM watched as J, through the madness of being starved, cannibalize a still alive V. >Watching all of his sins, from the other end.
