Came back and have a few starters to write. Yus. Taking my time though due to a bit of the yuck IRL. Everyone will receive though~
Like this post for a starter.
Do you ever wonder why we're here?
Grif was only half-way listening due to his ever shrinking attention attention span. It was a gift and a curse for the orange clad male. It had gotten him through a lot of berating from Sarge but, at times like these, he missed out on a lot of what could be valuable information.Ā
āYeah, you donāt really seem any different.ā This was an oddly polite thing for Grif to say. āYouāre still pretty much a dick.ā There he was. āAt least thereās one thing I can always count on with this fucked up group.ā
"Well, an AI learns from the people around them, so if you want me to be less of a dick, maybe consider giving me less material.
"ā¦But thank you. I try to be reliable. Failure isnāt exactly my cup of tea."
Wouldnāt he know.
This piece of information actually did manage to burrow it's way into Grif's brain. "So, if I was like crazy nice to you, you'd have to be nice back?" He wondered if he himself could actually pull of his end of that but the result would be incredibly tempting. Grif was a little to used to being beaten down. He couldn't remember the last time he had a legitimate reason to he nice. Grif decided on giving his new theory a bit of test drive."Well, you're definitely not a failure at being dick." Duck, that backfired. "And you have done some pretty cool stuff for us even though I doubt we deserved it." That was a bit better.
Do you ever wonder why we're here?
Grif was actually a bit offended by the Wash comparison. āHey, donāt compare me to that tool.ā He said defensively. At least he didnāt know what he was talking about when he insulted Church. Which, for once, was a total accident. He was nothing like Wash. Right?Ā
āI donāt know jackshit about AIs.ā He admitted freely with another shrug as he hugged his helmet to his side. āI mean, itās not exactly my fault.ā He rubbed the back of his neck with his free hand. Was Church really going all neo-AIist on him? āMaybe if you actually told me about whatās different, I wouldnāt sound like such a racist.ā He paused. āAre you guys even a race?ā He mumbled. āAnyway, you keep the kink part to yourself, thatās territory I donāt need to explore.ā He simply ignored the comment about him being too much like himself. He was used to that kind of talk. Grif had been slowly becoming immune to verbal abuse over the years. It had caused him to be a bit numb.
āā¦No, Iām notā Iām not a part of some kind of race of computer-people, Grif. Iām a person just like you, just with different capabilities⦠and a different body⦠because I built itā the point is, just⦠treat me like Leonard Church, not like Epsilon. You know what I mean?ā
No Church. He doesnāt.
"You were the one who asked about the sex thing, man, Iām just giving you answers. What Iām trying to say isā there is noĀ us. Ā AI arenāt⦠yāknow, different. I⦠I donāt think so, anyway. But if you do, then I canāt really say much to make you think otherwise.ā

dexinorange replied to your post:grif is the kink that is all
Dick.
"Itāsā itās nothing againstĀ you,Ā Iām not attracted toĀ anyone.Ā Just⦠situationsā¦ā
"Dude, it's not like I want you to be attracted to me. It's, like, the principle" Grif wondered what he was even talking about.

In Grifās defense, it is very easy to get under Churchās synthetic android skin. All you really need is a couple of insensitive jabs at his inhumanity and a hint at failure.
"It was my first of all because it was what came to mind first," he huffed, "andāĀ you guys?Ā Ā Really? Youāre as bad as fucking Wash. Iām aĀ person. Ā Treat me as such and not like a computer program. Not needing sex has nothing to do with being an AI. Even as a human, I didnāt need it. Not sure why.
"ā¦F.Ā Files? Ā Are you serious? No, Grif, I donāt needā I donāt need files to get off, who am I, fucking Simmons? I just need someone to appeal to my kinks. Itās not a foreign concept, holy christ.
"ā¦And I am not being overly defensive. You are just being overly⦠you-ish."

Being put through enough physical and emotional torture to break you into piecesĀ didĀ make your jimmies a little easier to rustle. Glad youāre having fun with it, Grif.
āFirstĀ of all,ā he muttered, shoving his helmet back on, āIām not exclusive to chicks, second of all, I donātĀ needĀ sex to begin with, thirdā I was not jacking off!ā
He sighed then, defensively tucking his gun to his body. Should heā should he just keep his helmet off? It wasnāt as though Grif was going to clock him.
Fuck it. There it goes, on the ground, rolling away. Farewell.
"Yeah, Iām pretty glad Iām not dead too." A sniff, and a slight adjustment of his tensing shoulders to relax himself (which didnāt work). "You know, if you donāt want to hear me complain so much, maybe stop being an asshole."
Grif cocked his head slightly to the side at Church's response. Was he really getting under his skin that bad? He was just talking. Then again, he had received quite a few complaints for doing just that in the past. Honestly, he had gotten to the point where he didn't know how to stop being a sardonic dick. "First of all, why is that your first of all? Second of all, whoa. Forgot you guys didn't need sex. Totally insensitive of me" He was still convinced Church was jacking off. "I mean, what do you need? Do files get you off?" It was obvious he was being genuine by the look in his eyes. Grif was incredibly ignorant. "Also, I have no idea what you're talking about. I am being a peach. You are being overly defensive." Grif informed him.

Processing⦠Ā
P r o c e s s i n g ā¦
"ā¦Grifā!!ā
Churchās voice cracked from embarrassment, and he yanked off his helmet with a glare.
"ā-Do I lookĀ like I am anywhere near doing something like that? Iām inĀ full fucking armour,Ā you moron. Besides, testing out my sex drive isnāt on the top of my priority list. I was honestly just thinking. Believe it or not, Iām not horny 24/7 like the rest of you assholes seem to be.ā
Do excuse him, he needs to get some rage out of his system.
"ā¦And Iām also not dying, but thanks for the concern. Dick."
Grif couldn't help but smirk behind his visor. Church was so easy to irritate. The orange clad male completely understood the blue's predicament. You get a new toy, you play with it, right? Might as well work the same way with bodies. Honestly, though, he didn't have the strongest sexual appetite. "Whatever you say, Church. You don't have to be so defensive. It's totally natural. I mean, you're surrounded by dudes, like, ninety percent of the time and the chicks we do come across would rather kill us than get naked with us." Grif removed his helmet as well as this point to reveal his shaggy hair and teasing smirk. "And trust me, I would've known if something was wrong with you, word travels fast in our group. Plus, you don't shut up when there's something wrong." He chided though, in a rare moment of humanity, felt bad. "Kinda glad you're okay though." He admitted.

"ā¦Itās nice to see you too, asshole."
Church frowned, though not fully, behind his visor, turning slightly to face Grif as he spoke. āYāknow, I kinda came out here for the sake of beingĀ alone.Ā Not sure whatās so hard to grasp about āhey, Church is fuckinā gone, maybe he wants some time to thinkā.ā
And thatās an AI asking for time, which is basically all theyĀ have. Ā Sad, really.
"Anyway⦠uh, if you came to ask how the body was doing, itās doing fine. And if you came to ask if the sex drive was working, the answer is I donāt know yet, and no you canāt test it, Tuckerās already asked. Sleazy prick.
"ā¦So are you gonna stay here and talk with me, or wander off in search of an oreo tree?"
Grif had no regrets about his greeting though he did lower his weapon once he heard Church's voice. He had to make sure it wasn't some sort of weird ambush. Things weren't exactly normal around here so Grif was constantly on his toes. "Dude, gross." Grif couldn't hide the slight disgust in his tone when he heard about Tucker's inquiries. "I was just patrolling to make sure, you know, no one was dying." Grif hid Church's name poorly in a cough. "Isn't all you have alone time?" Grif waited a moment before putting what he thought was two and two together. "Whoa, were you testing your sex drive out by yourself? Because that I can understand. I mean, weird spot to do it, but to each his own, I guess." Grif shrugged nonchalantly.

It had been a while. In fact, it had been ages, since Grif had seen a blue. He was on Chorus now and as he walked his mind wandered back through the years. He wondered how things had become the way they were. There was no red. There was no blue. It was a difficult thing to wrap his mind around since that had been all he'd known for years. His mind involuntarily went back to when he and Church had been imprisoned together. Simmons would later admit to him what Church had said to him. After that Grif couldn't help but feel an odd surge of affection for the blue. Though he doubted he'd ever say that out loud. He had become more like Sarge than he had thought, it turned out, since he was still a bit prejudiced towards the blue team. The member of red team turned a corner and there stood Church. Or was it? Fuck, the guy died way too often, but it looked like his color. "Who the fuck are you and what the fuck are you doing here?" He really didn't want a confrontation. He'd probably end up dead himself.
"Stop it! I canāt stand this. No more bickering."
New Grif. Literate and lovable. Come shower me with your affection.
