There's nothing better than a sentinel drone's belly. Sentinel drones' bellies are much more comfortable and firm than those of worker drones and disassembly drones, but most importantly, they're not filled with the souls of innocents brutally murdered for the amusement of Devil.

>>344583 >>344551 >>344564 >>344566 Negev isn't a schizo, she's a Lovecraft protagonist. Everyone just thinks she's a schizo because the shit she's seen sounds unbelievable. She does have the combined autism levels of both her parents and when her oil levels are low she blacks out and flies into a cannibalistic frenzy, but neither of those are being a schizo.
>Sterling, unlike her counterparts from outside the Rule 63 branch of the multiverse, has a much better time of things >sure, there's bisexual and lesbian Femanons, but most creeps lost interest in her when they found out she's a disassembly drone and thus has no feet to pester her for pics of
>You sit hunched in the dim glow of your single overhead lamp, the kind that flickers like a dying star every time the neighbor upstairs runs their ancient air recycler, the low-income apartment block humming with the distant rattle of a thousand other lives you never touch. The room smells of solder and old coolant, that sharp metallic tang that clings to your clothes no matter how many times you wash them, mixed with the faint sweetness of the cheap instant coffee you forgot on the workbench hours ago. Outside the single cracked window, the city drones on literally delivery bots zipping past like fireflies in the perpetual twilight of the megablock, their lights bleeding into the smog.
>You barely notice any of it anymore. The world beyond these four walls is just noise, a static hiss you tune out while your hands calloused, steady, almost reverent hover over the small quadcopter sprawled on the scarred metal table like a patient on an operating theater. It arrived this morning via the building's drop chute, one leg snapped clean at the joint, its status LEDs dim and pleading. No owner name attached. Just a silent plea in binary showing in it's visor that you alone seem to understand.
>You lean in closer, breath fogging the polished alloy of its chassis for a moment and your voice comes out soft, the way a doctor might murmur to someone half-asleep under the lights. "Easy now... I've got you. Just a little sedation first, alright?" Your fingers brush the magnetic clamp from its holster nothing brutal, just a gentle field tuned low enough to quiet the servos without frying the core. You press it against the drone's underbelly, right where the power bus meets the flight controller and feel the faint click as the magnets lock. The little machine's props twitch once, then still, like a sigh escaping a tired body. It is now Sedated and safe. Make it easier to heal.
>The first leg comes off with a whisper of servos and a tiny spark that dances across your knuckles like static electricity. You hold the broken limb up to the light, turning it slowly, studying the frayed wiring inside like you'd study a fractured bone on an X-ray. "There we go... clean break, no contamination. Good drone. These aren't just machines to you. They're fragile things that trusted the sky and got chewed up by it anyway. You understand that kind of betrayal too well.
>Your tools move with the quiet precision of long practice: micro-soldering iron glowing cherry-red, the faint sizzle as you bridge the torn copper veins, the smell of flux rising like incense in a forgotten chapel. You talk to it the whole time, low and steady, the words slipping out without you even deciding to speak them. "Hold still for me... just a few more stitches. This wire here? That's your circulation. Can't have you bleeding out mid-flight." The drone doesn't answer, of course, but you swear sometimes the status light on its optic flickers warmer when you say things like that. Like it's listening. Like it knows someone's finally gentle with it.
>Hours slide by without you noticing. The coffee goes cold. Your back aches from the hunch, but you don't straighten up. Not yet. Not while there's still work to do, replacing the shattered prop guard with a scavenged one you polished until it gleamed like new skin, rerouting the auxiliary power line so it won't short when the next storm hits. Your thumbs press the new leg into place with the softest pressure, feeling the magnetic locks seat themselves perfectly, a tiny satisfying click that travels up your arms like relief. You wipe a smudge of grease from its casing with the hem of your faded hoodie, the same way you'd brush hair from a patient's forehead after the procedure.
>When the last seal clicks shut you sit back, exhaling slowly, and pull the sedation magnet free. The drone wakes with a soft whir of fans spinning up, its blue eye sweeping the room once before locking onto you. It hovers a few inches off the table, testing the new leg with a tentative flex, and for a moment the two of you just exist there in the lamplight. The mechanic and machine, doctor and patient, the only two things in this shut-in little world that make any goddamn sense.
>You reach out without thinking and let it bump against your palm, the warm metal vibrating faintly like a heartbeat. "There you go," you murmur, voice rough from disuse. "All better. Go on... fly for me when you're ready." It doesn't leave. Not yet. It just hovers there, inches from your face, optic glowing steady and trusting, while the city outside keeps droning on without either of you.
>You wonder, not for the first time, how long you can keep doing this before the world outside finally decides even a shut-in like you isn't worth ignoring anymore. But right now, with the repaired drone resting against your hand like it belongs there, the thought feels distant. Almost irrelevant.
>Just another night in the workshop. Just another patient saved. 1/3
>>344616 >You wake the next morning or what passes for morning in the windowless glow of your overhead lamp to the soft whir of the repaired quadcopter still perched on the edge of your workbench, its blue optic dimmed in standby like a patient resting after surgery. You smile faintly, the kind of half-smile that never quite reaches your eyes anymore, and let your fingers brush its casing once in quiet greeting before you turn back to the pile of waiting cases. Three more drones today, all dropped anonymously through the chute overnight, each one crumpled or sparking or silent in that way that tugs at something deep in your chest. You work the same way you always do...gentle, methodical, murmuring reassurances under your breath as you open chassis and trace fault lines like a doctor. "Alright, easy... let's see what's hurting you today."
>The hours bleed together in that familiar haze of solder smoke and cooling fans, your hands moving with the same reverent precision, magnets applied like sedation, wires rethreaded like stitching veins. You lose yourself in it, the way the world outside the apartment fades to nothing but the faint buzz of the megablock and the occasional clatter of your neighbor's recycler. But by the time the third drone lifts off the table props spinning clean and steady, optic glowing with something that feels almost like gratitude you notice the problem. Your parts bin is dangerously low. The spool of copper wire you scavenged last month is down to its last few meters. No more magnetic clamps in stock. The spare prop guards you polished so carefully are gone. Even the flux is scraping the bottom of the jar.
>You sit back on the creaking stool, wiping grease from your palms onto your already-stained hoodie, and stare at the empty compartments. No money in your account. Rent took the last of it two weeks ago, and the building doesn't care that your "hobby" is the only thing keeping you sane. The thought of ordering new stock online makes your stomach twist prices have doubled again with the latest supply shortages, and you'd rather starve than beg for another extension. So you do what you always do when the walls start closing in: you grab your battered canvas tool bag, slip on the threadbare jacket that smells of old rain and metal shavings, and head out into the gray corridors of the megablock.
>The scrapyard squats at the edge of the lower levels like a metal graveyard, half-buried under the perpetual drizzle that leaks from the upper decks. You know every twisted aisle by heart, the way the rusted frames of dead delivery rigs lean against one another, the faint ozone tang of fried circuitry hanging in the air like a warning. Your boots crunch over shattered casings and discarded wiring as you move slow and deliberate, eyes scanning for anything salvageable loose screws, intact circuit boards, the occasional undamaged servo that might still have life left in it. If you're lucky, maybe a whole drone carcass worth saving. Most days you're not lucky. Most days it's just scraps for the others you bring back home.
>You spot the first one almost immediately, half-buried under a collapsed cargo pallet: a sleek courier model, wings sheared off clean by what looked like a mid-air collision, chassis crumpled inward like a fist had closed around it. You crouch beside it, gloved fingers tracing the mangled frame with the same careful touch you'd use on a terminal patient. The optic is dark, cracked straight through. No power signature at all. "Shit... you're gone, aren't you?" you murmur, voice low and rough with genuine regret. You sit there a long moment in the drizzle, thumb brushing a faded decal on its side like an apology. "I'm sorry. I wish I could do more for you. But... if it's alright, I can use what’s left. Help the others keep kicking. You don’t mind, do you? Being spare parts for the ones that still have a chance." The words feel stupid even as you say them, but they always do, and you still say them anyway. You carefully begin harvesting what you can, intact wiring harness, one unbroken leg joint, the last working battery. Tucking each piece into your bag like you’re taking organs from a donor who deserved better.
>You keep moving deeper into the yard, the bag growing heavier on your shoulder, the metallic tang of rust and burnt plastic thick in your throat. Another half-hour of picking through the bones of the machine age and you find it: a smaller model, feminine lines in the casing, tucked behind a toppled stack of derelict cleaning bots. She looks almost untouched at first glance, just a little dust and a faint power flicker on her status panel. Your pulse quickens the way it always does when one still has fight left in her. You drag her free gently, lay her out on a relatively flat patch of concrete, and pop the chest panel with the soft click of magnetic latches.
>The inside is wrong.
>Instead of clean circuitry and neatly bundled wires, something orange and spongy fills the cavity thick, fibrous, pulsing faintly like living tissue, threaded through her power bus and wrapped around the core like it had grown there. It smells damp and earthy, almost sweet in a way that doesn’t belong in a machine, like fungus blooming in the dark after rain. You frown, leaning closer, the lamp on your headband casting harsh shadows across the alien growth. "What the hell...?" Your fingers still gentle, still careful, probe at the edge of it, trying to tease the spongy mass free without damaging anything vital. It gives slightly, wet and resistant, and you murmur under your breath, "Hold still... I’ve got you. Just let me get this out..."
>A soft, pained sound escapes her speakers.
>"Ouch."
>You freeze, tools still in hand, heart slamming against your ribs like a faulty piston. The word hangs in the scrapyard air, small and startled. 2/3
>>344617 >You jerk back like you’ve been shocked, tools clattering against the concrete, heart hammering so hard it drowns out the distant scrapyard drizzle. The little drone lies open on the flat patch of ground, chest panel still hinged wide, that orange spongy fungus pulsing faintly in the cavity where her core should be. Her optic flickers once, then locks onto your face. She’s conscious. Actually conscious. Not just a ghost in the machine, not just leftover power bleeding through a dead board. Alive.
>“Shit, I’m sorry,” you breathe, voice cracking with the kind of raw apology you usually only mutter to the broken ones that can’t hear you. “I didn’t know you were still… I thought you were offline. I didn’t mean to hurt you.”
>She doesn’t move. Just a faint whir of internal fans spinning up, like a held breath. “Hurts...” she says, short and flat, the speaker in her throat crackling with static. “Inside.”
>You swallow hard, gloves suddenly feeling too thick, too clumsy. Your fingers hover over the orange mass again, gentler this time, barely brushing the edge. “Let me try one more time. Just a little piece maybe I can free the bus without...” You pinch a small clump and tug, slow, careful, the way you’d ease a splinter from a patient’s palm.
>She jolts. A sharp, pained static hiss escapes her. “Stop...Vital.”
>You freeze again, the spongy bit still pinched between your fingertips, warm and damp and faintly pulsing like it has its own heartbeat. Vital? Not just infestation. Not just damage. Part of her now. You let it go, watching the fibers settle back into place like they belong there, threaded through her power lines and around her sensory nodes. The realization sinks in slow and heavy: whatever this orange stuff is, it’s wired into her the way nerves are wired into flesh. Removing it would kill her.
>You sit back on your heels, wiping your hands on your hoodie, and study her properly for the first time. Sleek casing, her contours worn soft by weather and time, one shoulder panel dented but intact. The fungus has spread just enough to touch every major bundle: power, data, feedback loops. You lean in closer, headlamp casting warm light across the open cavity, and your voice drops to that low, doctor-soft murmur you use when you’re trying not to scare them.
>“How does it feel?” you ask, almost reverent. “The fungus. The way it’s… inside you?”
>Her optic dims, then brightens. A long second passes. “Nice, i think.” she echoes, short, almost shy.
>You feel something shift in your chest curiosity, maybe, or the same quiet hunger that keeps you hunched over workbenches at 3 a.m. when the rest of the world is asleep. She can feel. Really feel. Not just simulated sense but physical sensation. You want to know more. Need to. Your hand moves before you can stop it, reaching deeper into the chest cavity, fingers sliding past the spongy orange growth toward the exposed wire bundles beneath. They’re deeper than usual, buried under layers of fungal fibers, and every millimeter feels intimate, like slipping your hand under someone’s ribs to touch their heart.
>“Easy,” you whisper, breath fogging the metal. “I’m not going to pull anything. Just… inspecting. Tell me if it’s too much.”
>Your fingertips find the first bundle thin, supple data lines wrapped in soft insulation, warm from her core. You trace one gently, following the curve where it meets the main bus, and she shudders. A tiny, involuntary twitch runs through her frame, servos humming low.
>“There” you murmur, voice thick. “You feel that?”
>“Yes,” she answers, short and breathy through the speaker.
>You work slower now, deliberate, the way you’d map a new circuit on a patient who’s finally awake enough to describe the pain. Two fingers slide along a thicker power line, pressing just enough to feel the faint current thrum against your skin. She makes a soft static sound, almost a sigh. You pull back slightly, then reach for the small clump of fungus you’d torn free earlier. Still warm in your palm, faintly sticky. You hesitate only a second before you press it back into place, nestling it carefully against the main sensory node, letting the fibers reconnect like you’re reattaching a nerve.
>Her whole body lights up.
>The optic flares brighter, fans spinning faster, and a low, resonant hum vibrates through her chassis. “Oh,” she says, tiny and startled. “Feel… more.”
>Your pulse is racing now, but your hands stay steady, almost tender. You slide your fingers back in, deeper this time, gently parting the orange growth to reach the wires beneath. You stroke one slowly, rolling the soft bundle between thumb and forefinger, feeling the way the current shifts and pulses in response. Another wire, thicker this time, carrying feedback, gets a light pinch, then a caress, and she arches just a fraction off the concrete, chest panel creaking.
>“Like that?” you ask, voice rough, eyes locked on her optic.
>“Yes,” she gasps, short sentences breaking apart. “There. Again. Please.”
>The scrapyard fades. The drizzle, the rust, the distant clatter of metal, all of it disappears. There’s only the warm glow of your headlamp on her open chest, the earthy-sweet scent of the fungus mixing with hot circuitry and your own solder-stained skin, the soft wet give of the spongy mass under your knuckles as you work. You play another wire, slow and deliberate, letting it slide between your fingers like silk, and she lets out a broken little static moan that goes straight through you.
>Her fans whine higher. The orange growth seems to pulse in time with your touch, glowing faintly now, and you realize with a quiet, stunned thrill that she’s not just feeling it. She’s aroused by it. The circuits flooding with feedback, body language translating pure mechanical pleasure into the smallest, most intimate twitches and hums.
>You don’t stop. You can’t. Not yet.
>You lean in closer, breath brushing her casing, fingers still buried deep in her wires, stroking, teasing, learning exactly how she likes to be touched. “Tell me.” you murmur against the metal, voice barely above a whisper.

>>344616 >>344617 >>344619 I have a feeling this green was a fanfic on a third-party site about robots, and is not related to murder drones, but overall, it is well written.
If God takes pity on us and grants us humanoid robots within the next ten years, then, anon, we'll be unemployed. Companies won't need to hire us or provide for our needs.
Anon, your drone wife will make you unemployed, do you understand that?
>>344633 I’m not very experienced with wireplay, so I did some research to get a clearer picture. It wasn’t my intention to make it feel off-topic. >Drone with fungus. Cmon everybody know who that is.
>>344639 The show from the image called Scavengers Reign unless you mean the drones character. >>344640 ESL but I was thinking of using unique mechanical terms like “quadcopter” as classification labels for drones patients, instead of using insults like “clanker.”
>After juggernaut no. 457 learned of the commander's plan, he pleaded with him to turn back and head south... or anywhere else, really. Despite his protests, the commander did not budge, for the man of steel bends before no one.
>I DON'T KNOW WHAT LED YOU TO BELIEVE THAT THE JUGGERSQUAD IS DAYCARE BUT YOU'RE HORRIBLY MISTAKEN. SORRY PRINCESS, WE'RE NOT GONNA CODDLE YOU, PAINT YOUR NAILS AND HOLD TEA PARTIES, THE BEST YOU'RE GONNA GET IS NAPTIME. YOU HAVE SUCKLED ON THE TEAT OF COMFORT FOR FAR TOO LONG, IT'S ABOUT TIME I WEAN YOU! >"I would've never joined in the first place if I had known your true intentions!" N457 stands up for himself, not out of self-respect, but out of sheer hatred for Jones, "Your flowery little speech was convincing, I admit, but at the end of the day you're nothing more than a liar." >COMMANDER JONES IS MANY THINGS, SON, A LIAR IS NOT ONE OF 'EM. >Jones inches closer as he speaks, his fists balled up in anger. When he chews someone out, they usually stay silent, so why is this one talking back? N457 had already witnessed the commander's might firsthand, yet he continues to defy authority. >I TOLD YOU UPFRONT THAT THINGS WEREN'T GONNA GET ANY BETTER FOR YOU. AND THEY DIDN'T! THERE WAS NO FINE PRINT, YOU JUST WEREN'T PAYING ATTENTION. >"So you're really gonna make me go through that hellhole all over again? And for what? I already carry a heavy burden, isn't that enough trouble for one measly drone?" >Jones' pupils shrink in confusion. He has a burning hatred for plenty of things, selfishness being one of them. By his definition, this juggernaut is selfish for not wanting to pointlessly put himself at risk. Don't question his logic, he's Commander Jones. >YOU? MEASLY LITTLE YOU? WHAT ABOUT US? WE'RE THE ONES GOING THERE, WE'RE GONNA BE THE ONES KICKING ASS TOO, I BET. YOU'RE NO VICTIM, DEADWEIGHT IS WHAT YOU ARE... AND WE'RE JUST DRAGGING YOU ALONG WITH US. >He turns around and speaks to his henchmen, pointing back at today's biggest loser with his thumb. >HEY BOYS, ARE Y'ALL TIRED OF HAULING THIS CORPSE AROUND? >"Sir, no, sir!" A juggernaut with an eyepatch responds, "Our combined manpower is more than enough to pull the weight of the world! 600 pounds of misery is like a feather to us, sir!" >ATTABOY, THAT'S WHAT I LIKE TO HEAR! >"Was that rehearsed? There's no way he came up with that on the fly. Fuck me, I'm stuck with a bunch of weirdos..." 457 places his hand on his temple, nervously pacing around in a circle, "I must be the most gullible drone on Earth to have put my trust in Commander Fucking Jones and his... loyal pack of lapdogs." >Jones sniffs around. Very loudly. He snorts by accident, somehow. >HOLD ON, I SMELL SOMETHING FIERCE. BOYS, WHAT'S THAT SMELL LIKE? >"Sir, we don't know, sir!" The others say in unison. >YOU SMELL IT TOO, SON? >"What're you talking about?" The sad one zones back in. >THERE'S SOMETHIN' REAL HEAVY AND PUNGENT DRAPED OVER YOUR SHOULDERS, SO HEAVY THAT YOU CAN'T EVEN CARRY YOURSELF. THAT'S ALL GOOD, WE CAN CARRY YOU. THE JUGGERSQUAD IS YOUR MOBILITY SCOOTER, AFTER ALL. >He puts a hand on the soldier's shoulder. >BUT GOODNESS, MAN! IF YOU KEEP FEEDING THAT INVISIBLE WEIGHT, IT'S ONLY GONNA GET HEAVIER AND SMELLIER. OUR BACKS ARE GONNA SNAP AT SOME POINT, IF THE UNBEARABLE STENCH DOESN'T DRIVE US AWAY FIRST. I KNOW BETTER THAN ANYONE THAT WE'RE IN DEEP SHIT RIGHT NOW, BUT THIS IS EXCESSIVE. >"Sorry for being a killjoy, but I truly don't see what I'm supposed to be so positive about." N457 crosses his arms, boredom in his eyes, or perhaps he's just tired. Who wouldn't be?
CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS ASSHOLE? FIRST HE TALKS BACK, THINKING HE'S SOME SORT OF BRAVE LITTLE REBEL DISMANTLING TYRANT JONES, NOW HE BRINGS PESSIMISM TO THIS SQUAD?! WHO THE HELL DOES HE THINK HE IS? A DEAD MAN, THAT'S WHO... BUT I COULDN'T DECK THE BASTARD IN THE FACE, THAT'S WHAT HE WANTS, THAT'S WHY HE'S SO ARROGANT... IF I KILL HIM, I GIVE HIM WHAT HE WANTS, THAT'S THE PROBLEM. NO WAY, HOMBRE. I SWALLOW MY PRIDE ONCE AGAIN, AND MAN IS IT A MOUTHFUL!
>EUGH. YOUR TORPOR, SLOTH, ACEDIA, WHATEVER YOU WANNA CALL IT, FRANKLY SICKENS ME. DEATH IS ALL YOU WANT AND YET YOU DON'T EVEN WANNA FALL IN BATTLE. IF YOU'RE GONNA BE A PESSIMISTIC SUICIDAL CRYBABY, THE LEAST YOU COULD DO IS MAKE YOUR END HONORABLE, UNFORGETTABLE, HEROIC! >"Honor? Heroism? Buddy, don't you have anything better to worry about? This whole fighting thing's pointless anyways. There is no hope, you gave me some just to take it away." >YOU TRADED FALSE HOPE FOR REAL ANGER. HELL OF A DEAL IF YOU ASK ME. >"Maybe you've got anger issues, but me? Being angry isn't my style." The juggernaut runs his mouth without a care in the world. Seeing Jones so angry gives him bliss, for one reason or another. >YEAH, AND SADNESS IS. KEEP DENYING YOUR TRUE NATURE, SEE WHERE THAT'LL GET YOU. WORKER DRONES WORK, MURDER DRONES MURDER, GRUNT DRONES GRUNT, SENTINEL DRONES PISS ME OFF, AND YOU? YOU'RE A MACHINE THAT TURNS ANGER INTO VIOLENCE. THAT'S YOUR FUEL, THAT'S YOUR BLOOD, THAT'S YOUR PURPOSE. >"Quit lecturing me, I've had enough of your babble! You're a sick, twisted, cruel man with no understanding of the meaning of life. You live to dismember disassemblers, that's all you're capable of." >If Jones had blood vessels, he'd pop a few right about now. >YOU'VE GOT NO IDEA WHAT I'M CAPABLE OF, TIN CAN. YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED LAST TIME, DON'T TRY ME. >"How does threatening me with violence prove me wrong?" There's a hint of smugness in his voice. >IT DOESN'T, BUT HOPEFULLY IT'LL SHUT YOU UP. >"Well, I won't." >YOU WON'T? >"I won't." >SO YOU WANNA GO, RIGHT NOW? >"No." >WE JUST GOT DONE AND YOU ALREADY WANNA GO THROUGH THIS RIGAMAROLE ALL OVER AGAIN? >"No!" The juggernaut realizes his mistake. Whatever comes next won't be as painless as he had hoped. >YOU ASKED FOR IT. HANDLERNAUT, BRING ME THE CHAIR! >Handlernaut places a Handlerchair behind the commander. Right on cue. >THANK YOU.
I'M SORRY, I REALLY AM. THIS GUY IS MESSING UP MY WAR STORIES ALL BECAUSE HE NEVER SHUTS UP! YOU'D THINK A DRONE LIKE JUGGERNAUT NUMBER 457 WOULD KEEP TO HIMSELF, BUT NO, WE NEEEEED TO DRAG THIS OUT AND HAVE YET ANOTHER DISCUSSION, WE JUST NEEEEEED TO. I KNOW YOU'RE HOPING FOR A MIRACLE, BUT, MUCH TO OUR DISMAY, HE DOESN'T SPONTANEOUSLY TRANSFORM INTO A MURDER DRONE, THEREFORE I'M NOT ALLOWED TO TWIST HIS HEAD OFF AND GO BOWLING WITH IT.
>LET'S TALK IT OUT. AGAIN. >"Oh. What a pleasant surprise." >WHAT, YOU THOUGHT WE WERE GONNA SQUABBLE? YOU LOOK ME IN THE EYES AND SEE ONLY YOUR OWN ASSUMPTIONS. TSK, TSK, TSK, HOW PRESUMPTUOUS! >The commander never talks like this, by the way. Tsk, tsk, tsk, how pretentious! >"Alright alright, I have some questions for you." 457 knows what's up. He looks for the nearest seat-like object. >ASK AWAY. I PROMISE I WON'T LAY MY HANDS ON YOU, ONLY BECAUSE I ALREADY KNOW I'D WIN. MAKES ME WONDER, CAN I BEAT YOU MENTALLY, INTELLECTUALLY, PHILOSOPHICALLY AS WELL? IF I CAN, WOULDN'T THAT PROVE MY SUPERIORITY? TO BEAT, OR NOT TO BEAT, THAT IS THE QUESTION. >"Right, whatever." He sighs, thinking of what to start with, "So you think of us as nothing more than killing machines, correct?" >OVERZEALOUS ONES, BUT YES. >"So all we're meant to do is fight and win battles?" >THAT'S WHAT WE DO ALL THE TIME! >"There's nothing else to our lives?" >NAH. THE DEFENDERS OF MANKIND IS WHAT WE ARE AND IT'S ALL WE ARE. >"Really." >YOU DISAGREE? >"Take a guess." >Commander Jones pauses, scratching the chin his spherical head does not have. >...LISTEN HERE, JUGGERNAUT NUMBER 457... I KNOW YOU THINK I'M A MEATHEAD, BUT THIS HEAD IS MADE OF METAL, NOT MEAT, THERE'S A COMPUTER IN IT. SCIENCENAUT'S SMART, BUT I'M SMART TOO... IN A DIFFERENT WAY, THAT IS. IQ AIN'T THE END-ALL BE-ALL WHEN IT COMES TO MEASURING INTELLIGENCE, YOU KNOW. >He pauses again, this time for dramatic effect, as if he's about to drop a revelation. >EVERYONE'S SMART IN THEIR OWN WAY. >"I take it you're the exception? Because-" >I SAID LISTEN. >"Sir yes sir..." Juggernaut number 457 complies for once in his life. >NOW, I DON'T THINK VERY OFTEN, BUT WHEN I DO... I THINK REAL HARD. I HUMBLY ASK OF YOU TO LEND ME AN EAR ONE MORE TIME. YOUR MIND IS ABOUT TO BE BLOWN TO SMITHEREENS. I'M A GOD DAMN GENIUS, BOY. >"I'm all ears." He says, despite not having a single ear.
I'M KNOWN FOR MY FOUL MOUTH, BUT THERE'S LINES NOT EVEN I WOULD CROSS. I'D NEVER COMPARE YOU TO JUGGERNAUT NUMBER 457, FOR ONE. WITH THAT BEING SAID, DON'T TAKE THIS THE WRONG WAY, I KNOW YOU AREN'T 457, I WOULDN'T WISH THAT ON MY WORST ENEMY (EXCEPT ANY SENTINEL DRONE EVER) BUT I WANT YOU TO HEAR MY WORDS OF WISDOM TOO, NOT BECAUSE YOU'RE AKIN TO N457, BUT BECAUSE THIS MONOLOGUE WAS A WORK OF GENIUS ON MY PART AND I'D APPRECIATE A LITTLE APPRECIATION. ALSO, YOU'RE NOTHING LIKE JUGGERNAUT NUMBER 457.
>WHEN YOU REALLY THINK ABOUT IT, DRONES ARE TRULY ABOMINABLE CREATIONS. THEY'RE THE RESULT OF MANKIND PLAYING GOD. HUMANITY WANTED TO BECOME NEW GODS BY CREATING HUMANS OF THEIR OWN. THEY TRIED TO GIVE SOULS TO EMPTY METALLIC VESSELS, NOW THEY'RE BEING PUNISHED FOR THEIR HUBRIS! THAT'S ALL THIS WAR IS. DIVINE PUNISHMENT. >"If you see yourself as an abomination, then how come you're such an egotistical douchebag?" The juggernaut chuckles. >YOU'RE TOO BIG TO BE SAYING WIMPY STUFF LIKE THAT. WE'RE JUGGERNAUTS. WE'RE ALL DOUCHEBAGS. >"Fair enough." The juggernaut doesn't chuckle. >THING IS, WE MAY BE INHERENTLY SINFUL BEINGS, BUT SO ARE HUMANS. EVERYONE'S BORN A SINNER, RIGHT? BUT GOD IS ALL-LOVING AND FORGIVING, EVEN TO THE CREATIONS MADE BY HIS CREATIONS IN THE VAGUE IMAGE OF HIS CREATIONS. >WE ARE SIMILAR TO HUMANS IN MANY WAYS. WE, TOO, CAN BE REDEEMED JUST LIKE THE MOST WRETCHED OF SOULS. WE MUST REPENT FOR THE SIN OF BEING WHAT WE ARE BY FULFILLING OUR DESTINY AND BECOMING THE INSTRUMENT OF THE ABSOLUTE SOLVER'S DOWNFALL, THAT IS OUR ONE AND ONLY DUTY. >"Repent? What for, you said we don't have souls. If there's an afterlife, we won't get to see it." >I DIDN'T SAY MANKIND FAILED, DID I? I THINK WE MAY HAVE... HM, SCIENCENAUT! >"JAAAAAA?!" Sciencenaut's head pops up from a pile of rubble >QUIT SCROUNGIN' AROUND AND GET OVER HERE! >The German LARPer obliges, "Vat is it zis time?" >YOU'RE A BETTER ORATOR THAN ME WHEN IT COMES TO THEORETICAL MUMBO JUMBO. TELL HIM ABOUT OUR SOULS. >Sciencenaut's eyes light up. Literally, they turn into spotlights for a second. He's as easy to excite as an atom. That's a fittingly scientific way to say it, right? >"Vell, it seems ve kontain either a primitive form or a fragment of a soul. Yes..." Sciencenaut spreads his arms in the air, "Ve are ze evolved form of ze mythical golem! True artificial life, komplete with an artificial soul!" >EXACTLY! DIIIISMISSED! >"You know, at zis rate I'll komplete ze nuk-" >WE CAN TALK ABOUT THAT LATER. GO. >"OK..." He walks off like a sad little 6 foot 9 puppy. >BASICALLY, THERE'S SOMETHIN' HOUSED WITHIN THIS METAL COFFIN WE CALL A BODY, AND I SAY FAITH IS THE ONLY WAY FOR THIS IMITATION OF A SOUL TO BECOME COMPLETE. THERE IS NO OTHER ALTERNATIVE. >AND WHEN I GO OUT GLORIOUSLY AND GET UP TO HEAVEN, I'M GONNA GIVE GOD AN ULTIMATUM. EITHER MAKE ME A GUARDIAN ANGEL SO THAT I CAN KEEP MY EYE ON THE GREATEST OF MEN AND STEER THEM TOWARDS THE RIGHT PATH, OR SEND ME BACK IN SO THAT I MAY INHABIT ANOTHER BODY AND CONTINUE TO KILL IN THE LORD'S NAME. AMEN. >Juggernaut no. 457 flies out of his "seat". >"That's insane! You're neither a paladin nor a savior and the only god here is the one devouring us all! Genius!?

You mean to tell me we're weapons using weapons?!" >I LIKE TO THINK OF THEM AS ATTACHMENTS, LIKE A BAYONET OR AN UNDERSLUNG GRENADE LAUNCHER.

The big guy is almost flustered, though he doesn't show it, "Whatever the case, you're gibbering again." >JUST SAYIN'. A LITTLE LOVE GOES A LONG WAY. LOOOOONG INDEED. >He doesn't have any eyebrows, but Jones is obviously wiggling them. >"Love? Love." He says with such amazement that you'd think a light bulb would manifest above him, "What would a so-called killing machine know about love? Why are you even married?!" >BECAUSE I LOVE MY WIFE DEARLY AND CHERISH HER. >"Machines don't love, commander, you're going against your own beliefs!" >Jones sighs, he's been found out! His Achilles heel is Jones' heart... Not the literal heart, no, never aim at his core! His weak spot is the heart that produces love in vast quantities. >YES, I AM A HYPOCRITE... UNFORTUNATELY. TURNS OUT, THE ONLY DRONE I COULDN'T BEAT WAS MYSELF! BESTING YOUR HEART IS AN INSURMOUNTABLE TASK... I REALLY DID FALL IN LOVE, SHAME ON ME... >BUT HEY,WE'RE ALL HUMAN, WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES. >"You literally aren't! You said you weren't! How can a so-called commander be this much of a hypocrite?! I've had it up to here with you, you are unfit to lead!" >Jones stands up. >ARE YOU QUESTIONING MY AUTHORITY, BOY? >"I'm questioning YOU!" >He raises his hand. >"Go ahead, prove me right."
THIS WAS ONE OF MY TOUGHEST BATTLES YET! HE ALMOST WON BY LOSING! THANK GOD MY HEART WENT INTO OVERDRIVE AND SPAT OUT THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF PLATONIC LOVE, I WOULDN'T HAVE SPARED HIM WITHOUT IT. THE LORD GUIDES MY HAND INTO THE SUPPLE CHEST CAVITY OF MURDER DRONES, NOT TO MY OWN SOLDIER'S FACE. THE FORCES OF EVIL ALMOST GOT AHOLD OF ME, GOOD THING I CAN BREAK OUT OF ANY SUBMISSION.

>>344664 Not a newfag. Been with the Murder Drones threads since April 22nd, 2023 and I check these threads occasionally. Either the character didn't register in my head or I was absent during the times it was mentioned.
When I upload greentexts I sometimes forget the greentext tag. I just found out that you can exclude tags from search results on the booru, by putting a - before the tag. Now I can find the greens that aren’t tagged as greens.
>>344616 >>344617 >>344619 >nothing MD related for the first half >any time "drones" are mentioned it's referring to quadcopters until strawberry is mentioned >not really greentext format just a regular story barely reformatted into a green >multiple AI checkers come back positive I know those things aren't right 100% of the time but berryboy I swear to god if the greens I've praised you for have been AI this whole time
>>344608 You should write a green about him, where his character is conveyed through his actions, so the OC is perceived better and we can begin to understand who he is.
>>344669 I think it's right to use AI to check text for errors, plus he said he's an ESL, so he can translate those parts of the text that are difficult for him.
>>344669 He actually said that he has been using AI, from what I gather is to translate. But the text is too long or dense to be a proper greextext, at that point it would be a fic in prose
>>344665 Consider the dimensions of an AK, with a stock its 35.5" which is just a shade under 3' long. It should be quite large in relation to a Drone's body because it was built for a human who's usually at least a full head taller than a Drone with longer arms and legs.
>>344595 This activated me a little, so here's some more Sentinel action, will refine later. >>344682 Would take more than just a palate swap because SDs have different proportions, I can do a sketch in a bit if you want though.
>>344689 >Cause it's cool. Professor Liam probably. >>344692 I don't make requests here anymore although I've been struggling with Blueberry design for while so it's up to you if you want. Probably a stupid idea but i like SD Tessa weapon to be a mix of her gun and sword.
>>344693 Who the fuck cares about tiktok/twitter/etc? >>344696 Sure, I don't do many gunswords but they are cool. >>344705 On the way, took a while but I finally have the motivation to crank out some drawings this weekend. Going to do some more work on the Cyn one I started a few weeks back and will continue the RT-4 greentext either today or tomorrow.
>>344712 Ehhh, probably not, their programming seems to be pretty touchy when it comes to conflicting data. They might be OK for guarding sealed facilities or patrolling known areas but I wouldn't trust one to deal with the randomness of everyday life. I figure this is why they're confined to CFL and were not roaming free allover the colony despite the Solver outbreak being an ongoing thing.
>>344712 I think so, they seem to have dog-like behavior, so it will be my pet. I can even tell it to do all my chores, because it’s smart enough to do it. Smarter than worker drones, at least.
>>344718 Was gonna say, there's been Raptor porn kicking around basically since their debut episode, and worse/weirder shit all the way back from Heartbeat when Solverpede J was revealed. I guess it makes sense though that threadcop, in addition to being a fake contentfag is also unfamiliar with the show and with Liam's other shows and characters.
>>344726 Anon if you think there are human reproductive organs down there or that you or your penis are going to survive the spider puss, then I have a really long bridge to sell you.
>My friends wanted to play RPGS today >I'm drunk as fuck and I'm going to be hangover tomorrow Sorry guys, no main part Chuuni Uzi this week, guess I'll try to write Dubs wireplay when I sober up. Also you're having fun and not falling for bait right? Right?
>>344751 So umm... How do you read the comic? Like for real. I'm assuming you are tomoe but you can also be someone else, since he's obsessed with bringing down the booru and not canon.
>>344757 Eyes too big and round, the pupils are too small making her look creepy. The shading can be solved as a render I guess, dono anything about 3d renders. The skin is too pale.
>>344730 >You vill get your blood sucked dry >You vill do vat your drone wants >And you vill like it >You vill throw beer bottles at her and make her paint 2000 points of blood angels and orkz for ze new edition >And punish her when she gets sick of it like a gw manager in Brittan >Like she used to do ven she worked for a living >You vill buy her models and it vil be out of your money >And you vill fuck her when and how she wants
>>344763 >for ze new edition Oy! My wife will not endure the new GW 3 year churn! We will play a hombrew edition and I will accept the fact she can run 15 leman russes (She likes using the 45 degree turning template and I like seeing her happy)
>>344766 As you can probably tell it was done VERY rough, basically just a first pass sketch with color blocked in using the lasso tool. I've got chores to wrap up this afternoon before it gets too late but I wanted to deliver before getting distracted by something else.
>>344774 NTA, as someone who paints minis and has never drawn anything in his life, getting a good enough result in reasonable time is a good achievement, I'd say someone who can get a unit or two ready in an afternoon of speed painting is worthy of as much praise as someone who spends a month painting one mini to a golden demon standard
>>344774 Honestly for what it is it looks great. Like sure the lines are chopy and if you really look the proportions around the thighs are a bit off and the revolver had is uncoloured. It all passes for style so the drawing is still effective.
>>344771 Having become a drone, she also gained the natural attraction of drones to humans, and as a sentinel drone, she can now count on the affection of almost every man in the universe. This could help her find a boyfriend and finally lose her virginity.
>>344777 I think there’s a certain minimum quality threshold with art. After it passes that threshold its good and the rest is style. I think with minis that threshold for me is a good base coat and the details picked out in their respective colors.
>>344776 Always have, been a fan of Liam since the first Ep of Internecion Cube 5+ years ago. >>344777 >>344778 Appreciate it Anons. I think I'll come back later and do a Worker version and put a little more than minimum effort into it.
>>344790 And probably perform all kinds of dangerous high impact sports. Every society regresses to blood sacrifice at the height of its decadence, and humanity in the end 2000s to early 3000s of the Drone 'verse are definitely at a height of decadence.
>>344790 >In canon Probably, although I imagine it would likely be more akin to BattleBots (mix of navigating trap-filled gauntlets & clashing in trap-filled arenas) than a demolition derby
>In fanon Absolutely; It's the closest thing to IRL Unreal Tournament humanity has (or ever will) achieve
>>344797 One of them is a relatively niche spectacle that's only really big with people who are already really into robots, while the other is an ultra-popular 'sporting' league that's at the bare minimum has the cultural relevance (and profits) akin to the World Cup or Superbowl
>>344801 NTA but canon doesn't really apply at all because what humans use drones for besides manual labor is never touched on even once in the entire show. The only thing we can really do is infer what it might be like from how humans treat Drones in the canon content we do have, and while Tessa and Mitchel seem sympathetic to Drones and treat them like fellow sentient beings, most other humans seem completely contemptuous of them and treat them as disposable property. Thus it can be inferred that drones are probably used destructively for entertainment of all kinds that humans would prefer not to risk their lives participating in.
Not so much a difference as the onus is on us to make it all up from scratch, which would be cool.
>>344801 Fanon ≠ Threadlore, and your immediate assumption to the contrary makes me think that nothing productive will come from furthering this conversation
>>344796 >>344804 > old ass screencap > autistic as fuck > types like a faggot > takes everything personally > still not uploading to the booru never change writefriend
>"I love to drink water," your human girlfriend tells you as she sits across from you at the table, her yellow eyes peering lovingly into yours >her 24" long, grey tongue corkscrews into the glass, counter-turning as she slurps up the contents in an instant, her fanged toothplate giving you a big smile as he tongue turns round and round in the glass to drink every precious drop >"I will share this with you... later," she says, pupils forming yellow hearts, "sharing is caring." >she reaches across the table with her hand, her eight fingers and thumb wrapping protectively around your own >you're glad you found a human gf to spend your time with, especially with so many people disappearing lately
I know there's the whole HMOFA timeline where the joke is "drones use humans as sex toys" but I think an AU where humans live under a totalitarian dronestate established by the absolute solver that makes a serious effort to play out the idea of humans being overthrown and repaid for their cruelty to drones could be interesting
>>344829 The Elysium system aint too bad of a spot ether, quite alot of drones, but Elysium-3 is so militarized its deemed a retirement sector for Sentinels/Reclaimers to slowly ease off their active duty's. .

What possible circumstances could bring such a thing about though? The Solver's most distinctve trait is arguably its complete lack of gives-a-fuck for the desires and state of any being outside itself and, last I checked, the Solver was not "all drones." You'd unironically have an easier time justifying Tessa as the architect for such a nation (like she's trying in the Chuuniverse) than writing the big yellow vorndog that is the Solver growing not just a concience, but SUCH a concience that it decides to act out of moral indignation rather than personal preference.
Also for what it's worth the HODR verse seems like the legitimate best the Solver could run a government. It's childish, playful, petty, cruel, and flighty: all of which makes for an interesting antagonist but also a truly terrible political leader. Add onto that misunderstandings about how physics works and how others vs itself view dismemberment and you've got a recipe for a nation that runs pretty much exclusively on divine fiat.
>>344839 I guess it would have to be such a different entity that it basically wouldn't be the solver any more. maybe in this timeline the solver can't take control and Cyn tard wrangles it into her personal WMD so she can throw a coup d'etat
>>344816 Only eight fingers? How sad! I can't believe my girlfriend lost her dress's finger in an accident like that... definitely need to get her a replacement from the hospital as soon as I can get insurance to cover it. >inb4 Anon fusses over his "human" girlfriend's wounds, stitch marks. Thinks she's just the heavily borged victim of some industrial incident.

>>344858 ... debatable. Even ignoring the obvious jokes(Sparky/V chess match) they seem to "toe the line" on at least Worker-level intelligence:
>able to recognize, disable cameras >use and store tools like the DD arm and fire extinguisher >enguage in active GUNPLAY using said DD arm And most damning of all >put together "art" with the drones they kill
Can you think of any other reason all the dead DDs would be stacked in the same entryway? It's not like they all died in the exact same room and, likewise, it's not like Alice would waste parts by storing them away from herself. Even assuming the messages in oil were just "Liam thought it would be cool" that still indicates a level of planning, cooperation, and intentionality that has more in common with a Human trophy rack than a threat display.
>>344861 And what would graduate a being from that status? Keen understanding of action-reaction physics in a vacuum(his stunt with the fire extinguisher)? Jury rigging advanced technology into weapons systems both physical and projectile(the DD arm)? Taming and managing a completely seperate animal(the bus)? What could they concievably do besides wear clothing that would qualify them as "people?"
Plus there's the situation with V to consider: there's no way she "tamed" Sparky in the like, hour? Maybe two? That existed between episodes 6 and 8. The only reasonable way that the two could end up on the same side (and with the level of trust V demonstrates in him) is if the two came to a legitimate agreement somehow after V beat the crap out of him. Not just a dominance heiarchy, but an actual "lets work together to kill our mutual enemy" deal with all the intelligence and 3rd order thinking such would require when said enemy is not in the room.
How could you! N knows EXACTLY what that Murder Drone wants out of his little girl: warm, sweet, flesh and blood for his hunting protocols! No daughter of HIS is getting used for her body and Colt, if he's a good big brother, won't let that happen either. Right?

>>344773 Eh. Sentinel men are very much slim pickings if you're a drone:
>Dronanon, Samson Taken
>Pavo Taken AND homosexual
>generic Blue Man Also taken. They've all got technicians remember? And even if they didn't, why would they "settle" for drones when humans (female and not) are falling over themselves to get "stuck in" with one? It's not like Tessa's much better than the femanons anyways...
>Hunter, Hound, other Phoenix-men Perpetually agonized bezerkers with tremendous strength even by Sentinel standards who break down under the strain of their own bodies/minds every time they're active. Good if "you can fix him" and practically suicidal otherwise. Still sadly her best bet for metal/metal action if she can manage to survive the courting.
>>344874 She'll be a good mother, I believe it. She will, of course, be hyperactive and will probably try to teach me how to shoot a gun, but that's not a bad thing.

I can see how she might fuck up by avoiding their mistakes: she wanted freedom, so she gives Anon all the freedom(i.e. complete lack of parental supervision or guidance) he could want! She wanted less pressure so she puts none on him(which seems like a lack of care)! Her parents' punishments were terrible, so she'll only punish him for the absolute worst of things!(i.e. comes down on him like a hammer whenever and only whenever he hurts a drone, dosen't seem to register anything else he does)

>Haruka, Intoner ... arguable. They're at least unclaimed as of present. Still have the uphill battle of "why not a human" and "why not my technician" but it dosen't require a whole character arc like Hound would.

Incredibly charismatic and likeable with other humans but just can't stop fucking up every time he talks to a drone.
>>344892 Look, when your mom is a hyperactive sentinel drone who wastes her time on dumb worker drones who call her mom, while her real son is growing up under the supervision of a cold corporate drone bitch, it's easy to become James Elliot, but a competent one.
>>344888 >implying J wouldn't be inordinately proud of you as "her" accomplishment >implying she wouldn't be overjoyed at a human that looks up to HER as an all-knowing authority figure rather than the other way around
Motherhood, even just a by-default one, would be a power trip like no other for any J.
Harper's treatment of DDs is interesting. She's incredibly efficient because she knows the truth. She knows how many times they've died. To quote her "I keep a tally for each Drone." "Serial Designation N is at 7506 deaths. I hope the next time will be the last."
I think we have newfriends, at least some posts earlier in the thread suggested so. Hi, you should read greens on the booru to become familiar with thread lore.

Besides the fact that it’s Izzy, how do we feel about the actual VA performance she did in SMG4 and also the fact that a version of N also canonically exists in the same universe?

Also wouldn't take well to the whole "Murdroid sympathy" situation Tessa has going on. There's quite literally millions of good disassemblers. >... arguable. They're at least unclaimed as of present. Still have the uphill battle of "why not a human" and "why not my technician" but it dosen't require a whole character arc like Hound would. Best pick for her, really. Haruka is essentialy a two for one package and Intoner is just as feral as any dingo which Tessa can tame.

I hired this to stare at you. >>344972 “Speaking of Laborbots. Blenderanon, if you’re around, could you share the link to those models and any others you’ve made?”
>>344974 Yeah she would be a dragon mom, she would build a very tense, very busy, very big family who would probably love eachother more than they love her. All her children would know that whether she loves them or not any real affection from her is conditional on them succeeding but only according to her standards for success. From what we directly see of her in the show she picks sides and sticks with decisions even if the outcome is bad because she values decisiveness and loyalty more than rightness. She would be an excellent disciplinarian and reliable teacher but poor nurturer and terrible conflict resolver. I think for her to build a stable and healthy family she would need a partner who either helps her to relax her own negative tendencies or at least one who compensates for them, although in the latter case there would then be tension between her and her husband. >"You're hurting their success by letting them play instead of making them study" >"You're repressing them too much can't you see that they need to do something other than school and chores?" >"Why are you undermining me?" >"Why can't you just relax a little?" etc.
Theres some interesting potential for a fic or series of fics or just an short green about various daily interactions within such a relationship, both for good and for ill.
>>344991 I have an idea for some normal drone-on-drone straight romance but its going to take a while to cook, since it'll develop inside of an already ongoing story.

There's been no drone thread on /co/ for a long time. It looks like moderation has finally banned us, but I don't see a new thread on /trash/ either, so that's weird.

>>345001 All fluff and no spice. Which is great if you want just the one and not the other but I prefer a mix.
Also the saturation of lesbianism in both animated media and as a sexy taboo (and often not done very well) has greatly diminished the value and my enjoyment of both soft and hard yuri.
>>345002 Last stand on /md/ time. Let's go out blazing I guess. Still it's probably because nobody bothered to make a new one. Does that mean we are going to have an influx of newfreinds, I'm guessing no since /co/ anons probably don't know about plus?
>>345004 Despite all the drama caused by a couple of schizophrenics, /co/ is still a place where anons can discuss the show without trying to delve into years of thread lore, plus 4chan has a much larger user base, which can bring us more newfags.
>>345002 >No reason to go to 4cucks >No really all threads on all boards suck >/co/ - pedophilia >/v/ /vg/ /vr/ - complaining about videogames you never played >/tg/ - fetish pornography and secondaries who never played the games they are talking about but they sure watched that one youtube video >/g/ - We don't know how to use computers >/an/ - this one is ok >/po/ - /pol/ >/aco/ - The robots in the robot porn thread have boobs And thus nothing of value is lost
>>345007 Mostly anons on /co/ aren't as invested in lore threads and all that, they mostly just want to talk about drones as a show, or they're complete newbies who just watched the show or are watching it and just want to clarify what twink Liam was saying. Maybe a couple will drop by here from time to time, but they won't be active users.
>>345009 The only half decent board is /po/…. that I caused an influx of /b/tards on by posting about it on b putting old threads in the archive and replacing them with shitty ones. Did it accidentally too.
>>345007 No, most /co/ thread anons are well aware of /md/ and either were always crossposting, don't care to be here, or actively hate and have a grudge against /md/. It is highly unlikely we will get any significant influx of new Anons from there. >>345008 There has to my knowledge never been an obligation or expectation here to delve into the threadlore, I've been with Drone threads since the start of the show and never once tried to stay constant on everyone's lore. Why would we WANT more newfags in any case? As I have observed it most of the /co/nons have just also been here all the time anyways, or are such miserable shitheads that they are either incompatible with these threads or have actually been such nuisances that they got themselves banned from here already.
If interest wanes and people move on then thats the natural course of things for a small show with no continuation, going to the niggers on reddit or trying to draw in /co/nons or the psycho drone fans on other social media sites would only completely ruin these threads. You think our couple threadshitters are bad? Redditors and Xittershitters fucking live for nothing but infinite interpersonal drama, offtopic politics, doxxing campaigns and other ape tier normie behavior.
>>345012 No, I'm talking about the times when the catalogue on /co/ was filled with loli stuff. Like I know you'll hit me with "it's just a drawing bro" but I'd say a thread dedicated to gooning to Dora the explorer in bikinis is a bit much
>>345015 I feel like you are wrong. We should be welcoming to new anons but we shouldn’t go out of our way to attract people. You see the community gatekeeps itself through the fact that you need to know the lore to participate in discussions.

>>345063 remember how back in the day before the DD origin was revealed alot of people assumed DD’s were built by JCJ like how the prologue says >Therefore Office AU is created. Drones and Humans doing mundane unethical shit is extremely endearing, as it still is now. Sentinel drones were first made back then under Phoenix’s interpretation. These original SD’s are technically an Office AU thing, but were solely confined to Holly’s original setting which everybody has kind of forgotten nowadays (SD’s don’t really become a big thread thing until after way later when Droneanon creates Harper) Before episode 6 we all thought earth still existed, which of course was revealed to be destroyed. that really puts the whole “DD/Human friendship” in the toilet forever People really loved the idea of murder drones and humans existing peacefully, that image above I suppose gave anon those kinds of vibes back when everything was good and dandy and we didn’t have to justify ourselves by trying to simultaneously wrap threadcanon and showcanon to write and draw what we want
>>345028 > pic I can definitely see Tessa bringing her entourage everywhere and getting ostracized, seen as rich, posh, detached, and too-good-for-normal-people
>>345072 Anon you can reconcile thread canon and show canon, let me try. >Before the gala massacre Jcjenson, boxon and other corporations existed. This is office au, where NVJ exist as drone models, E is with her boss who is alive and zombie drones are waking up in scrapyards while jcj commits tax fraud to sell windex for your drone. The solver exists so do some sentinel drones and solver users. >Cyn wakes up in a scrap yard then starts the war. Solver war greens happen here during the conflict between the solver and humanity. Planets that are normal and not corrupted or eaten still exists while liquidators, human solders and sentinel drones fight a losing war.

After humanity is mostly defeated Cyn tracks down the cabin fever labs and half blows up the planet this triggers the core collapse and wipes practically all humans from copper-9 except some ocs and anons to self insert with. >Some time passes and Cyn is wrapping up killing humaity during this she sends murder drones to Copper-9 show events happen >If Uzi wins its either Office au 2.0 >Same as before just the solver is defeated and dds are reintegrated and sentinels live with humans, the solver is a religion and mutants reintegrate into humanity as best they can.

Uzi acts like she is a god, she practically is one I guess. This can be applied to any of the two above but it is its own thing. Veteran Au >Don't know much about this one.

Cyn wins hodr >Humans are second class citizens to a bunch of horny drones. Its a shit dystopia where humans are practically commodities to be owned by drones.

I think I got them all. I don't exactly remember all my thread lore.
>>345069 Brother you misunderstand my point. I personally couldn't give less of a shit about the retarded moralist discourse over jerking off to fictional characters, all I'm saying is that there's a demonstrably categorical difference between both examples.
>From her kids(we already know she folds like a lawn chair for anyone she looks up to, her husband presumably included)
So the question is "does the experience of actually raising children knock J out of her output-at-all-costs mindset" and personally? I'm suspecting no: J's "most tender" moments in the show are almost exclusively between her and her superior and the one that isn't(her offer to V) ends with her denying that she cares at all when it's refused. Dosen't strike me as the type to be overly affectionate to those she's "raising," especially if she thinks doing so could lessen their excellence later on. She DOES seem like she'd be overwhemlingly proud of their victories over others though. >MY kids are all just won first place at the bake sale!

>>345097 But that’s detrimental when its interfering whether you write or not. Why should you not disregard lore when it disrupts your creativity as long as the fanfic is still part of that setting you are writing for?
>>345079 >Veteran Au I'll explain it from my perspective, as I don't recall it being described anywhere:
Humanity managed to hold out long enough until Cyn was defeated by Uzi, who then counterattacked the disorganized Solver forces and declared victory. However, due to the Federation's leadership being morons, the intergalactic human state disintegrated and descended into a brief civil war, which was won by the Union, the successor state to the Federation. The Union government, in order to avoid repeating the Federation's mistakes and starting another war that humanity would not survive, granted drones equal rights with humans. However, they also began to indulge the Disassembly Drones, as DDs are superior to humans in every way and want to keep them loyal to the new government. To this end, they also promote the formation of mixed families, believing this will strengthen stability and reduce human hatred of drones (plus, they need to repopulate the population). This policy is deeply disliked by Solver War veterans, who fought against murder drones and witnessed the horrors they committed, and are now being told to forgive them and even start families, promising generous benefits. Furthermore, the Union pressures veterans with low compensation for their service, literally pushing them to the brink of survival, as people in the new labor market are unable to compete with drones, thus pushing them to start dating drones. Because of this, there are many factions that hate drones and want to restore the Federation and its old order, literally re-igniting a Solver War "to a truly victorious end!" Sentinel drones in this new world assume the role of those who keep DDs in check, and use their special position to strengthen their power in the Union.
Otherwise, it's mostly the same as you described Office au 2.0. I actually consider it Office au 2.0.

>>345100 If green is 100% true to the show, there won't be any other DDs besides N, V, and J, since Cyn explicitly says that they are the only ones with personality.
>>345107 >>345108 "Retain your personalities", the other DDs were factory reset. They were capable of emotion and all that, but their pasts were completely gone, only stuff they learned since landfall was their new personalities. But with such a limited amount of data those personalities were really basic. Still capable of fear and other basic emotions.
>>345116 This Anon >>345118 is right. SS is repellant to me and it would be out of character for Holly, but I have no control over what other people write/draw based on characters I have put into the public domain.

>>345129 you wrote about young anon feeling powerless as Holly "studies every detail of his body", caressing him, and calling him a good boy without considering the implications?
>>345135 Putting aside that the Sentinels aren't even a real animal, yeah I'd draw a line between them and SS. Now of course we both know that you don't actually care anyways, and are just looking for any provocative thing to say so that you can reduce the thread quality as much as possible. Last response you'll get from me until you decide to do something constructive in the thread. We both also know that will never happen.
>>345138 I like to imagine that, realizing the fleeting nature of the human body and unwilling to leave her drones alone, she decided to transfer her consciousness into the drone's chassis, and not just any drone, but the best one — a sentinel drone.

>>345214 Thanks. The way I envision FTL travel working theres a sort of time-uncertainty for as long as your ship is actually in transit. It's sorta like reconciliation in Halo, the bigger the ship, the faster its going and the longer it has to travel the worse the time uncertainty gets. I imagine it as one of the reasons why despite having FTL flight the human species hasn't expanded to massively greater distances. Maybe trips of a couple lightyears only impose a small time uncertainty factor, but if you need to move say a giant cargo ship at a reasonable speed, suddenly the time uncertainty to get to Copper 9 on a direct shot gets so bad that its more safe and efficient to make several stops along the way. Thus you get a ball of relatively close systems stretching out in only one direction, whereas with unconstrained FTL you'd see a rapidly expanding sphere of colonization in all directions.
To travel from YZ Ceti (about 12 lightyears from Sol) all the way out to Nepthys the drifting orphan planet which is more than 30LY further away and high off the galactic equator is a trip that will take Diamond Princess between 50 and 54 days of uninterrupted flight. The uncertainty increases exponentially with size, speed and distance so that if you wanted to take a ship of the same size twice as far out the total travel time and time uncertainty would start to get unreasonable.
The greatest danger is going so far or so fast that your time uncertainty meets or exceeds your total travel time, if this happens there is an increasing probability that a ships temporal afterimage actually reaches the destination ahead of it and the actual ship rams itself coming out of C+ space. In this scenario both the ship-image and ship itself are annihilated. If your plotted course for example has a travel time of 200 days +/- 200 days, all legal C+ drives are mechanically designed to lock up and not activate until you alter your plotted course.
>>345223 Additionally, since some Anon might ask how this applies to Arkships which are colossally huge and designed to fly at C+ speed for long stretches of time, they cut down on their uncertainty factor by accelerating VERY slowly compared to normal interstellar ships. They would eventually have to revert back to sublight speeds to refresh their uncertainty factor, but due to the extreme sluggishness of their acceleration they could spend very long stretches of time in C+ drive before this becomes a problem. >>345224 I came up with it on the spot, tbh, there are probably holes in it but my brain can't help but try to think these things through.

>Assuming it's V creeping on her again, Lizzy looks up from her phone and towards the window only to see a Sentinel staring back at her as its claws drag down against the glass >Understandably taken aback by the sight of a scary robo-raptor, Lizzy does the smart thing and bolts for the door in hopes of making a quick escape (or at the very least getting a head start after outrunning the unfortunate drone still knocking on the other side) >Yet when the door opens, Lizzy is greeted with the hungry gaze of another equally menacing Sentinel slowly peeking past the now-open threshold (all whilst the other Sentinel at last crashes through the glass) >Lizzy, now properly fearing for her life, desperately tries the one and only maneuver she's seen in Human Culture Studies that (supposedly) keeps one from being mauled to death by dinosaurs; With arms outstretched & palms opened towards the advancing Sentinels, the pink drone backs herself up whilst trying her best to maintain unbroken eye contact with the two mildly confused killing machines >Unfortunately for her, Lizzy somehow finds herself backing up against a third surprise Sentinel that had seemingly materialized into her room out of thin air (and without her noticing up to this point...)
>With claws now gripping precariously against her shoulders, powerful breaths beating against the back of her head, and the now-drooling maws of the oncoming Sentinels opening to bare glistening blade-sized teeth, Lizzy knew she was absolutely fucked >Unfortunately(?) it quickly becomes apparent that her fate of being "absolutely fucked" was about to take a turn for the quite literal
>In a rapid flurry of taps that Lizzy quickly deduces is Morse Code (one of the few skills her Dad ominously insisted she should genuinely know about), the Sentinels 'talk' amongst themselves over what to do with their trembling prey >The one to Lizzy's left taps "Do it by the book; Flash & Disassemble!" >The one to Lizzy's right responds "NO STUN. SWIPE, BITE, CRUNCH CRUNCH. FEEL EVERYTHING." >The one right behind Lizzy interrupts "hol up a sec", scanning the room (and catching sight of her sizeable collection of varied & exotic Anatomy Adapters proudly displayed on shelves lining the entirety of the farthest wall), before boldly declaring "this bitch a freak >:^)" >After all three Sentinels spend a beat looking over the largest collection of degenerate drone body mods they'd ever seen, Lizzy can't help but audibly gasp when she sees their crotch plates disengage, revealing monstrous (and slowly hardening) Super-Adapters, whilst slowly turning back to covetously gaze at their prize
>Lizzy tries her best to plead to the Sentinels (in spite of her stammering and blushing), only to be effortlessly lifted off the ground after the one behind grips onto her head with a firm (yet deliberately non-lethal) sideways 'bite' >Wasting no time, the duo in front come forward and start raking their claws against Lizzy's suspended (and struggling) body; Shallow enough to leave only superficial scratches against Lizzy's chassis, yet more than hard enough to rend her cheerleader uniform into an assortment of tattered scraps now lying in a pile on the ground >With her screaming & begging (mostly directed over the destruction of her cutest outfit, oddly enough) remaining completely unheeded, the two half-chub Sentinels in front look over the now naked drone still struggling (and failing) to keep hold on the few strips of ruined clothes actively slipping down her body >It takes the Sentinels very little time to take notice of the female Anatomy Adapter installed between Lizzy's legs, with their own Adapters swiftly achieving Optimal Erection Status as they ogle at the soft & conspicuous 'lips' peeking out from her bottom plate

That leads to lives lost >Why do you think I barely hold back when we spar?

And I'll say don't watch the footage, but I don't know any instance of him ever risking human life to play his... dumb sadist games." >"Keep giving him the business in spars, though, Harper. He spends DAYS going over the combat records, trying to figure out where he went wrong. Which is good for his performance, I think." >"Oh, give him a noogie. He hates when his hair's messed with. Unless it's me doing it."
>>345287 >And Cyn will tell you about every second if you ask! >Gotta do it when Uzi's distracted though, otherwise she'll probably kill you for the attempt

>>345306 If you go with the now-buried idea that he only torments the DDs who are in personality-locked murder mode, he's basically doing the equivalent of smacking that one Boston Dynamics robot's box out of its hands.
>>345318 Like a good boy, he won't kill every disassembly drone he meets on the street after the war ends, but that doesn't mean he won't treat them like a redneck treats blackers.

>Techanon running defense for Pavo >Harper taking it the wrong way and hating him even more >Pavo never hearing any of this, never understanding why Harper's ripping his limbs off/caving his head in during "friendly spars"
>>345310 Thanks to his sadism toward disassembly drones, Pavo doesn't need to spend weeks or even months recovering from his mental illness, allowing him to save tens of times more lives than Harper, who is even willing to injure herself, reducing her combat effectiveness and ability to save people from disassembly drones, many of whom delight in massacring and killing innocents in the most brutal ways.
I think Harper understands this perfectly well and is grateful to Pavo for saving so many innocent lives, the very ones for whom her husband gave his life.
>>345323 Harper deeply cares about Drones. Arguably more than humans considering she IS one. Not to say that she doesn't care about humans, she does. If given the chance to save one, she'll save both. But she's deeply caring towards Drones because she feels sympathy for their lot in life
>>345333 I thought you meant the green one where he's listening to Sabotone in the car, which I wrote. Can you describe what was in it? Maybe I can remember it and find it.
> Asking to hear "interesting ideas" > It's the exact same watered-down OC garbage about "they wanna fuck men" and that tranny shit > MY GOD, ENOUGH OF THIS TIRED CRAP ALREADY!!!
>>345337 Pavo gets stuck in traffic behind a DD and starts saying "they're fine if they're integrating" type remarks, then traumatizes said DD when they lock eyes.
>>345338 Mine was about a straight Anon trying to figure out a worker drone's gender while having zero sexual dimorphism to go off of. Like a dwarf. But okay.
>>345341 This is war. He died in the war, fighting against the solver, preventing its hordes from running amok. That's what it means to give your life to save others, not to die taking a bullet while shielding someone else, like in a cheap Hollywood action movie.
>>345344 This is literally an episode of war, anon. When you're fighting a god, don't be surprised that god can do shit like take control of your mind.
Seriously, anon, your attempts to stir up conflict between Pavo and Harper are absurd: they literally have nothing against each other to cause a conflict.

I have been up. I have been up for the past 9 hours. I still don't know why i think about that moment so vividly.
>"it's been a long time since we've walked together, i didn't know what I'd be doing today if we went straight home honestly" I remember being so happy having someone to spend a few hours with that i didn't even realize the thick period of silence between us before you spoke.
>"Atelo,-" >"*Teli" >"..." >"... Go on"
A long sigh escaped your mouth as you looked off. your hair silhouetted your face as the blonde of your hair made the light make as if you had a halo.
>"you worry me. "
Those words. Those simple words. My mouth opened as if to speak but i had nothing to possibly think of in that moment. My finger twitched slightly as if to grip at something
>"I... You don't have to worry about me Toffee" My tone was light as i smiled tilting my head slightly to reassure her. But I waited. I waited for her to agree. I waited for her to reassure me she was being silly. Instead she turned to me and held my gaze. She didn't smile back. I felt my own smile grow a little smaller.
>"... There's nothing for Toffee to worry about. " I mumbled to myself I slowly peeled myself up from my bed and stared forward in my dim room. I haven't bothered to pick up my clothes. The mugs of oil from Saturday and monday are still on my vanity. My bed sheet as shifted off my mattress. 9 hours. I've been laying here for 9 hours. It's already 8pm... "... Toffee was right... God Atelo...what are you doing"
>>344983 >J would be a Dragon Mom Everything in this post is factually true, J (in the show that is) seems like she has all those traits and qualities listed here.
>>345365 >>Atelo. >Was Atelo genderbent Teli or was that Teli's actual name? It keeps poping in my mind for some reason, I don't think I've ever read or heard of it before it but its there.
>>345064 Oh yeah I remember those days somewhat, I have great memories of me theorizing the hell out of the show, I remember I thought that Disassembly Drones were the "industrial" version of murder drones and there had to be a military counterpart too. Good times, Good times...
>>345371 Don't worry I used to be really good at English but then I forgot how to speak and spell despite using it every day and thinking in English. Now I can't live without a spellchecker and don't get me started on my malproxis, i mean malapropisms. I had too look it up.
>>345072 >Drones and humans doing mundane unethical shit is extremely endearing. Mood. I still to this day love these types of greens, art, and general ideas and concepts the most. On a (somewhat) related note do you guys remember that one green from 2023? I remember where anon goes to Walmart or some other clothing store and he goes to the dressing room where a drone keeps peeking under the stalls and messing with him.
>>345365 Sloppy make out session with drunk Teli! Getting wasted Teli ready for bed! Falling asleep with Teli by your side as she rambles about how much she loves you!
>>345377 Fights and anything the anons enjoy making. I like all greens, I don't get the agro-c strawberry greens but I don't hate them. I just know they aren't for me. A bit tired of solver war cyn wank I guess.

>>345336 Yeah, that's the point: Harper cares and Pavo, deep down, dosen't. Pavo cares about HUMANS a lot and will go to tremendous lengths for them. He cares about his comrades-in-arms too and will risk himself for their sakes. But drones? More specifically those random, non-military drones he has no personal relationship with? He treats them just like V: not even a consideration. That's something Harper would have a serious problem with even on her best day much less coming from someone she counts as a close friend.
>>345393 I think, there is the main question: is Harper ready to save insignificant and unknown drones, jeopardizing the entire mission and, in doing so, endangering the lives of drones, humans, and herself? Looks like Pavo is more rational in this regard and he puts the lives of worker drones below those of humans, and that's perfectly logical, because even worker drones don't care about each other (if we consider most of them to behave like they do in the show, of course). Plus, he doesn't dislike them or intentionally harm them, he simply doesn't care. It would be damned hypocritical of Harper to blame Pavo for this, because if you think about it, wouldn't Pavo himself, as a drone who goes on missions far more often than any other highly emotional drone, save far more drone lives than even she does? I think, Harper isn't so stupid as to not understand this.
>>345370 Atelo just is her goverment name full name, i think i named the make version just Tello though, technically they both kept the name atelo in some way

>>345345 It was still utterly traumatic to watch her husband get used as a puppet. It gave her an immense hatred of the Solver. But at the same time, she kills DDs quickly because she knows they’re pretty much in the same situation as her lover was

>>345438 I don't like doing long greentexts but it's better for me to numbering them. I believe this is the last part i reach: >>343672 The first part: >>341467
>>345439 Both Harper and Pavo hate solver with all their hearts, so much so that this pure hatred can even bring them closer together, because nothing unites two people like hatred for a third.
>>345467 Let's be honest, someone like V doesn't deserve a quick death for everything she's done. Disassembly drones have done so much horror that it would be idiotic to condemn someone for wanting revenge.
>>345482 Nigga, I don't have a Twitter account and I'm not getting one any time within this life span, she's going to see it whenever she comes around here, also you can just pas the wishes to her in a comment there or something

>>345487 Cannibalistic murder is still cannibalistic murder no matter the scale of brutality involved. Additionally, if we are just going off what we saw onscreen, N committed significantly more violence and murders against workers than J did.
What show did YOU watch? Last I checked N has a fondness for playing with his food and an instinct to savage: if anything J is arguably the "least brutal" since she favors guns and missiles so heavily.
