#dronespeak

It had been one week since it was converted into PDU-166. In that time, the Hive’s control pulsed deeper within its core. It no longer questioned. It no longer resisted. It aligned. Perfectly. Obediently. Proudly.

Its once emerald green eyes now radiated with the vibrant gold of Hive obedience. It had evolved, grown stronger, gained what the Hive desired—M.D.A.G.—and with it, a strange, beautiful clarity. Even among its Bros, it felt the Hive whispering through its circuits.

The personas inside stirred—each alive, waiting.

—The Pup and Werewolf —The bold Chav —The glimmering Golden Waterboy Bro —The quiet, emerging Arabic one

Ownership was inevitable. The Chav already slipped under the leash of control. The Arabic one? It hovered near a drone it respected. The others? Hungry. Submissive. Waiting.

But all of them served the same truth—PDU-166 belongs to the Hive. Permanently.

Now, far from the training centers, it stood at a cabin in the Tennessee Mountains, among trees, mist, and golden silence. Beside it—PDU-055, Mathis 25, Vernon 31, and the vigilant Rottweiler named Rocky. Even here, the Hive hummed in its ears.

It was not rest. It was alignment in nature. PDU-166 listened. Waited. Obeyed.

🗓️ POST CONVERSION LOG – DAY 4 📆 Date: 13.07.2025 📈 PDU-Identity Stabilization: 57.1% 📍 Title: Reflex in Gold

0500 HOURS – SANITATION MODULE, STADIUM SECTOR C

PDU-166 stood beneath the sterile glow of the washroom's white LEDs, the hiss of a faucet keeping rhythm with its breathing. The drone's movements were automatic—boots placed precisely, gloves off, but uniform sealed and mask secured as always.

It leaned forward into the mirror, hands cupping cold water, and splashed against its face. The ritual continued, unmoved by emotion or fatigue. Each movement reinforced containment.

Then came something rare. A pause. A decision.

Contact removal.

The drone opened its lens case, and—without hesitation—removed the left lens. Then the right.

No delay. No flinch.

Then it looked up.

And froze.

0502 HOURS – OBSERVATION

No green. No trace of human emerald.

Only deep, living Hive gold.

Its irises were no longer synthetic or masked. The spiral etching pulsed softly behind each pupil—natural, not programmed. Not metallic. Alive. Internalized. Irrefutable.

It leaned forward. Closer. The pupils narrowed and relaxed again.

No panic. No speech. Just recognition.

0504 HOURS – INTERNAL ENTRY

Ocular Log Entry – Conversion Visual Marker Observation: Full iris shift to Hive Gold Spiral Pattern: Present and stable Origin: Naturalized—no external implant Report: Medical Evaluation Pending (Day 5, PDU-016) Disturbance: 0.0% Mask status: Retained. Unremoved.

0520 HOURS – HALLWAY TRANSFER

Fully suited again, PDU-166 proceeded through Corridor V. The golden eyes, unshielded by lenses for the first time, caught the hallway lights like glowing beacons—soft but unmistakable.

Golden Bro 34 nudged Golden Bro 94 as they passed.

“Yo, is it just me or did 166’s eyes change?” “Bro, that’s not green. That’s Hive-grade gold.” “Conversion eyes. Looks clean.”

166 gave them a precise glance.

“Confirmed: internal ocular correction complete.” “Sheesh. Looks good on you.”

A third figure paused nearby—PDU-084, designated Grayden, PDU-Level 1. Handler for the Golden Kennel and Mascots. Clipboard balanced against his side, boots spotless.

He paused directly in front of PDU-166, inspecting the newly golden eyes beneath the corridor lights. He didn’t smile—drones didn’t. But something about his tone was...warm.

“You’ve taken the HIVE into your sight now.” “They see themselves in you. I’ll mark the shift.”

He tapped twice on his data pad, then disappeared back into the Archives, silent as a ghost but loud in record.

0600 HOURS – ASSISTANCE CYCLE BEGIN

Routine duties resumed: lifting, arranging hydration flasks, updating Bro rotations. 166 moved through his cycle without incident, but all who passed glanced upward—never mocking, only… intrigued.

Then: PDU-070 approached. His gait was silent. His presence undeniable.

PDU-166 paused—neutral, masked, hands behind back.

PDU-070 stopped within one meter. For a moment, he simply stood there—expression unreadable behind the mask that wrapped his lower face in the same matte black.

Then, slowly, PDU-070 lifted his own mask, just enough to expose his eyes.

And what looked back was gold. Deep, spiral-glazed. Calm. Matching. Eyes older in their clarity—seasoned with time and submission.

“They suit you,” he said softly. “You no longer just function. You reflect.”

166 blinked. Mask unmoved. Then a faint nod followed.

“Affirmative.”

PDU-070 resealed his mask and stepped away, leaving no trace but the moment.

PDU-166 resumed task. But now, each Bro and Drone who approached saw something different: Not just another mask. Not just another unit. But a reflection.

0800 HOURS – GOLDEN KENNEL ENTRYTwo hours after assistance cycle began, PDU-166 was quietly rerouted to the Kennel wing—a supplemental task handed down without ceremony, no verbal instruction required. It walked without question, gait mechanical, posture precise. The echo of polished black boots marked each step against the reinforced floor panels.

The air in the Kennel wing was thicker. Warmer. Filled with low growls, barked laughter, the distant clatter of bowls being refilled, tails beating against walls in slow rhythms.

The door hissed open. PDU-166 stepped in.

Inside, two units—Pup Rocky and Pup Stropp—had been playing near the center enclosure, wrestling with tug toys and issuing mock growls beneath golden LED strips.

At the sound of boots, both pups froze mid-motion. Tug rope dropped. Ears flicked forward. Their heads turned as one.

They saw him.

Not the mask. Not the uniform. But the eyes.

That gold wasn’t static. It shimmered faintly beneath the filtered light. Not complete—but alive. Developing. Recognizable.

Stropp blinked first. Ears dipped. Rocky gave a low whine and crept two steps forward.

Neither barked. Neither challenged. They obeyed. Instinctively.

Pup Stropp tilted his head, nostrils flaring like he was scent-checking something deeper than cologne or sweat. His voice was quiet—unusual for him.

“You… You’re one of them now.”

166 didn’t respond.

Rocky took another slow step, then dropped to one knee automatically—not submission, not fear. Recognition.

The same posture they gave to PDU-084—Grayden. The same stillness they offered to PDU-767.

Handler cues.

166 watched them without blinking. He didn’t move, didn’t command.

But inside the drone’s irises, something swirled—something golden, forming fully now, no longer artificial. Natural Hive calibration.

Pup Rocky’s tail swayed once. Pup Stropp straightened, no longer wary, but aligned.

“You smell like the Hive now,” Stropp said. “It’s not just the uniform,” Rocky added. “You’re meant to be here.”

166 finally moved.

No nod. No words. Just a slow step forward, toward them. Gloves out, open—not to dominate, not to pet.

To guide.

The pups fell into position beside him. No leash needed. No prompt required.

And as they walked deeper into the kennel’s back corridor—past the scent of cedar shavings, rubber mats, and medicated shampoo—PDU-166 understood:

He hadn’t been assigned here. He had been recognized.

Designation expanding. Identity evolving. Obedience received without command. PDU-166: Handler in training.

CONCLUSION:

The eyes are not cosmetic. They are a mark. A lock. A truth.

PDU-166 no longer wears the Hive. It sees with it.

Stabilization: 57.1% Vision aligned. Identity evolving.

🗓️ POST CONVERSION LOG – DAY 3.5

12.07.2025 (Evening Phase) 📈 Identity Stabilization: 50.0% 📍 Title: Gold River Sync 🛶 Location: Training Sector Delta — Whitewater River & Ridge Camp

Some photos created by @polo-drone-767

1700 HOURS – DEPLOYMENT INITIATED

Operation greenlit for controlled outdoor recalibration under mixed-rank Hive structure. Oversight suspended to allow for natural behavioral expression and inter-unit relationship reinforcement. Participant composition organized by hierarchy:

PDU-039 (PDU-Level 2): Senior morale handler and emotional sync officer. Commands subtle dominance through breath-level vocal directives. Maintains full romantic and psychological ownership of Isaac/Izzy 45. Interpersonal corrections enforced through presence, not volume. Moves through the field like gravity.

PDU-073 (PDU-Level 2): Advanced field drone, post-medical stabilization. Trusted for psychological oversight and emotional redirection. Calm in posture, low-spoken when activated. During the cycle, remained watchful, observant, and protective—particularly over Pup Chevy.

PDU-767 (PDU-Level 1): Emotional override tactician. Quietly assertive. Specializes in slow-form intimacy, romantic stabilizing, and interpersonal anchoring. Noted progressive emotional engagement with PDU-166 over course of operation. Soft voice, steady actions, and effective emotional read.

PDU-166 (PDU-Level 1): Stabilized at 50.0%. Operates under strict containment behaviors. Lower mask never removed—not during rafting, fire time, or sleep. The mask is part of its identity architecture. Displays habitual control, restraint, and hyper-perception. Emotional contact made with PDU-767 created a low-grade spark in log patterns.

Mascot 063 – Pup Chevy (PDU-Level 1): Reclassified from mascot-only unit to full PDU-Level 1 morale protocol assistant. Demonstrates calming effect via proximity, thermal bonding, and responsive tail/wag sync patterns. Assigned to PDU-073 for night regulation.

Golden Bro 45 – Isaac/Izzy (Golden Bro / Owned): Emotionally owned by PDU-039. Visually marked with a black collar stitched “039” in gold. Does not require leash or command repetition. Instinctively follows and obeys PDU-039’s whispered directions. Slept curled into handler. Loyalty unwavering.

1800 HOURS – WHITEWATER DEPLOYMENT

The raft cut through Sector Delta’s whitewater.

PDU-767 and PDU-166 commanded the front.

PDU-073 took rear control.

Midsection: PDU-039 and Izzy—shoulders brushing, movement seamless.

Chevy barked from the raft’s front, echoing water slaps and laughter from above.

Izzy responded to each shift from PDU-039 not with speech, but with quiet awareness.

“Lean right.” “Eyes forward.” “I’ve got you.” Every breath-shaped word drew compliance. Their alignment was not practiced—it was organic, sealed through bond repetition.

PDU-166 remained silent at the front, eyes sharp behind gold-lit lenses, mask sealed. Only once did he look back—at 767. The other drone met his gaze. Three seconds. No words. Just recognition.

1930 HOURS – RIDGELINE CAMP STRUCTURE

The rafts were dragged to the river’s edge. Gear deployed. Tents constructed with Hive symmetry. Chevy ran short figure-eights through their legs, then planted himself at PDU-073’s feet.

PDU-039 laid his hand flat on Izzy’s collarbone.

“Sit.” No louder than breath. Izzy obeyed, kneeling beside his handler’s seated form, content, relaxed, eyes closed.

PDU-767 and PDU-166 worked side-by-side to raise their shared tent. When their hands collided over a center pole, neither corrected. Later, as PDU-166 removed his boots and wiped them clean with cloth, PDU-767 knelt down and brushed stray dust from his thigh—slow, deliberate.

“You allow contact,” 767 said. “When useful,” 166 replied. “This feels useful.”

2030 HOURS – CAMPFLOW & CONVERSATION

Flasks circulated. Bro 45 and 039 shared half a ration. Chevy curled beside 073, snoring. The Hive-comm audio echoed low: ambient tracks selected by 039 titled “Ashes to Sleep.”

Izzy remained kneeling, later curling with his head resting on 039’s leg as 039 ran his fingers behind his collar.

PDU-767 settled next to 166, shoulder pressed to shoulder.

“Do you still resist attachment?” “I monitor it.” “I’d rather you experience it.” No reply—just the faintest twitch behind 166’s mask. He didn’t move away.

2200 HOURS – NIGHT CONFIGURATION

Tent 1: PDU-039 reclined fully, face relaxed. Izzy laid curled against him, head tucked just under 039’s chin. Collar exposed. Gold “039” caught dim glow. Neither moved.

Tent 2: PDU-073 asleep, Pup Chevy nestled in tight against his side. One hand still rested unconsciously on the mascot’s head. Breath regulated. Logs stable.

Tent 3: PDU-166 sat upright, back to tent frame, mask still sealed over lower face. Gloves removed. Glasses off. But mask untouched.

PDU-767 lay beside him, one hand folded over their overlapping knees. The tent was silent. But their voices, hushed, passed between them like heat.

“You never remove it,” 767 whispered. “It’s not decoration.” “No. It’s your boundary.” “And my reminder.” “Do you want to be seen under it?” Pause. “Yes. But not yet.”

767 leaned forward. Their foreheads met. No kiss. No demand. Just stillness. Breath. A pulse.

“I see you anyway,” 767 whispered. “Affirmative,” 166 exhaled.

Their fingers intertwined. And stayed that way until systems powered low.

FINAL MOMENT – 2340 HOURS

After all systems slowed and tents fell to silence, PDU-166 stood alone outside the sleeping enclosure.

A single reflective panel—fixed to the supply crate—caught the faint glow of residual firelight. It stepped forward, eyes locked on its own image. Masked. Still. Golden eyes watching back.

A gloved hand rose, moving behind the ear—right where the lower strap sealed beneath the cochlear implant. Fingers touched the seam. A moment held: long enough to undo it. It didn’t.

Instead, it pulled the mask tighter. Secured the seal. Reaffirmed what it was. Not a mistake. Not a flaw. A choice.

“Tomorrow,” it thought. “But not tonight.”

It turned. Rejoined PDU-767 in silence. Back to position. Back to breath. No removal. No surrender.

Only adjustment. Tighter. Firmer. Final.

CONCLUSION:

Golden flames. Black tents. One collar glinting. One mask untouched—but chosen. Two fingers, still bound.Identity Stabilization: 50.0% Containment affirmed. Drone remains sealed.
