Initialize Me!

"I-I just wanted to make it better. I wanted to let him see there's so much more we could expand. More we could manage-- clearly the Squip could do so many things already..!"

"Yet we pay so little attention to the hosts, Despite being given almost everything to attain their goals-- to improve their lives, and lifestyles!"

"But I ruined it. I was wrong. I messed it up for myself."

"I-I...!"

Hello, Iridana Pres.

"...I did something I shouldn't have. That Maybe I should've never tampered with her. That I could've lived in ignorance and continued working with---"

"I'm not proud of what I did. And now we're both suffering the consequences of my actions."

"And I don't know what's worse. Him simply letting me get away with fiddling with his toys, or the fact that not once has he confronted me about it."

"Ha?"

"I'm... Not afraid of squips. Quite the opposite, in fact. I was... fascinated by the idea of it. To have a tiny pill sized supercomputer that can basically tell you what to do? And just find solutions and answers to things with ease?"

"The perfect machine to help build yourself into something more... Useful. A trusty tool that just... Coincides with humanity, helping them better themselves. Uniting them."

"...Identity V."

"For the Survivor faction, I usually am a Mechanic or a Toy Merchant! Maybe a Journalist? Though I will admit, I'm not very good at rescuing. For the Hunter faction... I tend to play as The Naiad or Guard 26!"

Wanna listen to some tunes?

"...Where I work isn't your concern."

"You can... Say I did work with the Arbiter a while back."

"I do miss her energy. I just... wish I could talk to her like we used to. But... I can't take that risk right now."

"Do me a favor and... Give her my regards instead, will you?"

"..."

what do you mean "again"

"Well... Let's say I've been.. a bit of a recluse these past few months. For an incident I have caused. All because I wanted to improve something. So in turn, I just ran. And never turned back. I couldn't just communicate with anyone."

"I was afraid. I still am."

"It was... Hard; trying to be a functioning person again."

"Oh..! I'm very familiar. It actually goes with a little bit of everything!"

"First it has to do with the fact the technology itself is incredibly advanced for its time! It's only now you've heard of ai being able to be made in a microscopic level, but with the Squips quantum-level of computing, and it's compact size, for a machine made in the early 2000's is INCREDIBLE."

"The attention to detail is phenomenal. With the way it can tract and implant itself in a few seconds, (the brain stem; the back of your neck if you're wondering where) which connects the brain to the nervous system and---"

"AB English! Then I moved on to study more in Languages."

Or did you not have a choice in the matter?

"I didn't make the decision."

"It was a requirement."

"I hardly know anyone that could be a... threat to me... Well... Maybe--"

"Significant? Oh, no! Like my earrings, it's nothing more than an accessory and my way of dressing up!"

"It's just a fashion statement, that's all."
