<Snipped quote by Artifact>

I don’t think I’d want to.

*Walks away from the terminal and opens a portal*
Think about your plans. Tell me about them when I get back. Or disappear, it’s up to you. You’re not under any obligations.


...Hey, one thing before you go.
<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Not any one person. Not by a longshot.
*Displays of various locations of conflict as a result of this war become displayed on monitors across the center console, and I turn to face you*
Your hand going to grow back? Got any starfish in your blood?


I’ll get the hand back. I lose fingers all the time—you get used to it.
<Snipped quote by Artifact>

It’s all beyond me. I don’t know anything about the inner workings.


Who made this, then?
<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Traditionally, kinda. They’re really just extra smart computers, but Chickpea is a little closer to your description than most.
*Slides the new cylinder into the same slot as the old*


How do you make a computer “smart” to begin with?
<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Artificial Intelligence. Not familiar with the concept where you’re from?


*Shakes my head*
Not by that name. I presume some kind of technological soul?
<Snipped quote by Artifact>

She’s an AI, of sorts.


*Blinks*
A... I?
<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Raises my hand up to near my chin, then lowers it slowly in a gesture for you to calm down*
Nothing related to you. Just maintenance of some facilities.
*Slides the tube into a metal container of the same shape but a bit bigger, and straps it to my back, then leaves the room for a moment, coming bak with a much more vibrant one*
I’ve already done exactly what I intended to do with you. Stay however long you want or need, but don’t touch anything. She’ll know.


That fairy creature?
<Snipped quote by Galvanize>

She is for now.

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Far from the grossest thing about this little series of events, I’ll say.
*Grabs a handle on the terminal and twists it, pulling a steaming cylinder with a blue glow from its slot*


What's that, and what are you doing with it?
<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*double taps the wall as it rings*
Just an observation .


Don't get cocky now. You got out of there alive because of a perfect storm.
<Snipped quote by Valiance>

She seems to be fine.
*places my hand on a wall*
Huh.


Speak for yourself, wench.
