More Sentient mech Dispatch AU
Will be disoriented, I struggle putting my thoughts and ideas into words. But I hope I can get my points across :)
I will use it/they for Blue (The mech), but as said in the other post, Blue uses all and any pronouns as they do not care.
I'm not entirely sure what the Astral Pulse is exactly, but they're some sort of cosmic entity.
I imagine Blue was not fully 'aware' before becoming the Astral Pulse. They simply existed. Not much thought happening.
This remained mostly the same when they became the Astral Pulse, gained the vessel of the mech, and was piloted by Robbie. Though now they integrated with the system and started following commands, as well as giving suggestions. Stuff like that.
They became somewhat more aware, but they functioned mostly like a system. It was all it knew. Most mortal concepts were unknown to them.
This changed with Robert, who at a young age would start communicating with them. I'm not sure what age exactly, but it was before Robbie's death.
Of course, Robert and Blue would start to bond and become friends.
I'm not sure if Robert would tell Robbie or Elliot. Likely, they wouldn't believe him. Or at least Robbie wouldn't. He would probably tell Chase though.
Imagine if Elliot/Shroud DID know though. Imagine this guy wanting to link you with his mind (terrifying), merge with you against your will (horrying). Awful.
Imagine Shroud directly speaking to Blue during the Final Stand. Not just asking Robert to hand over the pulse/Blue, but for Blue to hand over themself. Imagine that now.
