Oh Gaia Star have you ever tried Om Ali? I haven't had it since I moved out. Thanks for reminding me to make it at some point.

Do you just have an orchard of lemon trees or something?

Oh my days. Seriously? Well at least we know it's possible. Or I do, a couple weeks late.

… i really hope this works.

…

I’m sorry if it doesn’t.

New icon check!! It's a shame you can't see the piercings on my other ear... Maybe next time.

I should do eyeshadow more.

Shot through the heart and you're to blame Darling, you give love a bad name

An angel's smile is what you sell You promised me heaven, then put me through hell Chains of love got a hold on me When passion's a prison, you can't break free

Whoa, you're a loaded gun, yeah Oh, there's nowhere to run No one can save me, the damage is done

Shot through the heart and you're to blame You give love a bad name (Bad name) I play my part and you play your game You give love a bad name (Bad name) Yeah, you give love a bad name

Paint your smile on your lips Blood red nails on your fingertips A school boy's dream, you act so shy Your very first kiss was your first kiss goodbye

Whoa, you're a loaded gun Oh, there's nowhere to run No one can save me, the damage is done

Shot through the heart and you're to blame You give love a bad name (Bad name) I play my part and you play your game You give love a bad name (Bad name) You give love a—

Oh, shot through the heart and you're to blame You give love a bad name I play my part and you play your game You give love a bad name (Bad name)

Shot through the heart and you're to blame You give love a bad name (Bad name) I play my part and you play your game You give love a bad name (Bad name)

You give love You give love, bad name You give love You give love, bad name You give love You give love, bad name You give love You give love, bad name

WHO ARE YOU?

True, people can be unreliable in a sense compared to some machines. But no matter how advanced, machines can only operate based on the information they're given. That a person gives them. You said people are inherently flawed, so what stops that from passing over to the creation from the creator?

Also machines being loyal? Generally holds some weight, I guess, but I know of some who turned on their creators. That's the risk with advanced AI, not that I think Shard's situation isn't justified. It's how it is. But think about it like this, either you have a glorified sorting machine with no nuance running the world, or you encounter the same problem as with people running it.

You and I both know people are easier to dispose of.

Besides, just because you know the machine's agenda doesn't guarantee you can stop it. You're the Ultimate Lifeform, yes, but tech has a way of being tricky. Imagine if everything's on a cloud, y'know?

Isn't that the beauty of being organic though? We have to make every moment matter. We feel things, physically and emotionally. We're complicated tangles of tissue. I know Shadows are a bit sturdier than myself, or a vast majority of people Green added to the chats. But tell me you want some sort of unfeeling overseer who doesn't value simple comforts dictating your life. Forget about Lyric when you consider this, since it'll be their tech and not them personally running things.

What would you miss if a machine ran the world, not caring that you have different needs than a machine? Would it be a favourite food? A game? A sensation, like waking up in the morning warm and lazy. Would it be given ample time to enjoy the sunlight? Watching the stars? A work focused machine won't value these.

Consider that before you sacrifice everything on your people's behalf. It'll be a dystopia. People will be enslaved. There will be mass suffering, whether Lyric intends it or not.

Do you remember how you changed your mind about this Lyric person? It all seems very sudden, Butch, you have some of us worried. You guys have a stubborn streak 100 miles long, changing opinions isn't something you are known for.

There's no need to worry about me, I'm doing great, better than ever, actually.

As for how I changed opinions, that's none of your concern.

Let's just say that I remembered my place.

*gives you a cheese cake*

-cheese cake anon :3

Oh, nice! I haven't had cheesecake in forever. Thanks.

SO. I didn't have any organs stolen in that suspiciously quiet motel kind of place. Back on the road now. Will keep you updated.

Thanks for the invitation by the way, I'll be there as quickly as I can!

No problem -- there'll be a house ready for you when you get here, right near the hospital. Let me know if you need any help finding us! ^-^

Good Gaia what force of nature sent you?

How do people who can sing figure out they can actually sing? I've been told to shut up in the shower so many times so that's how I know I can't. Do they just not get that humbling experience? Is that it? Are they encouraged to sing in the shower?
