13-01: 9S Awakens
Feb. 10th, 2018 11:51 am[On the Pod Network...]
Pod 042: Pod 153. Commencing data sharing.
Pod 153: Affirmative. Launching compressed conversation mode.
[Pod 042 and Pod 153 converse rapidly in Wingdings lmao]
Pod 153: Compressed conversation mode complete. Affirmative. Awaiting report on the effects of unit 2B’s memory data on unit A2’s self-consciousness.
Pod 042: Understood. Updating as reference data for support activity.
Pod 153: Pod 153 will continue to support unit 9S.
Pod 042: Proposal: Pod 153 should periodically review the mental state of unit 9S.
Pod 153: Acknowledged.
[9S wakes up to Popola checking up on him.]
Popola: Looks like he’s awake, Devola.
Devola: Mornin’. Slept well, didn’t ya, 9S?
[9S slowly sits up and puts his visor back on.]
9S: I'm in... the Resistance camp?
Popola: That’s right. You’ve been unconscious for nearly two weeks.
Devola: A little thank-you for saving your butt would be nice!
9S: Where’s 2B?
Popola: ......
Devola: You know that better than anyone, no? Her... black box signal... disappeared.
9S: ...Oh.
Pod 153: Devola and Popola are rare android models designed for medical treatment and maintenance. Without the Bunker, they are the only remaining way for unit 9S to initiate repairs. Proposal: A word of appreciation is appropriate.
9S: ...... ...Thanks.
Devola: Yeah, there used to be lots of our models around. Apparently, we were put here to oversee some kind of large-scale system that was in place.
9S: Apparently? What does that mean?
Devola: It means we don’t know. All the records from that era have been deleted. Our model kinda went nutso at some point in the past. It... ended badly.
Popola: Most of our kind were disposed of after that. But... we were spared. They used us as a sort of control group in order to ensure such a thing couldn’t happen again.
Devola: So yeah, we’re lab rats. But at least we get to be here helping out friends. I’d like to think that we’re atoning in some way for our past sins.
9S: ......
Popola: Try not to overdo it, 9S.
