Week 2

[airlockedmods]

[Other than the reappearance of the Overseer, there's no real change in the routine. PAL still makes the morning and night time announcements through the PIP on each Champion's arm, and still the Champion unitards are freshly laundered and re-hung each morning in their closets.

No other floors unlock, but Cece and Kip will still be appearing randomly to chit-chat.

All you know is... something has to change soon.]

Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday

Ah, no, you're not entirely wrong there, the transformation, as far as I'm aware, is permanent. But the first time it happened would have to be very special.

[He's quiet for a moment and just... sort of transforms back into human shape, because this really isn't meant for holding conversations.]

...I don't like the idea that someone messed around with my memories and took that moment from me.

[motherfucking_ghost]

[He visibly relaxes some at turning back into personbot 9000 instead of...that.] Hey, look, nobody does. Too many questions. Waaaay too much power. There's nothing, at that point, that says we're even who we think we are. All the memories we do have could be fake for all we know.

...But if that's the case, then someone gave me really stupid memories and has waaaaaaay too much time on their hands.

[myocordial]

Honestly, for the sake of my own sanity, I'm not even going to entertain the notion that the memories I have aren't real. That level of reprogramming is...

[Yeah, that goes way over his lines.]

Ha, it would require an awful lot of imagination, considering all of us.

[motherfucking_ghost]

Man, I don't even want to get into the whole having a bomb go off inside me, everyone thinking they were thrown into the future, me thinking I'd been thrown into the past, and then doing a bunch of repetitive time travel and not being able to change things. Because if someone thought that up, they're a god damn moron!

...

[You know, it's not often that Heart is left speechless, so. Congratulations, Church, you managed it. He still recovers quickly, but damn, man.]

...You have... led quite the interesting life, haven't you, Leonard Church?

[motherfucking_ghost]

You have no fucking clue, dude. But I can't say I've been a transforming robot. Just a regular robot.

[myocordial]

Oh yes, well, that's perfectly normal then.

[Like. Come on, Church, what the fuck.]

[motherfucking_ghost]

[WHAT DID HE JUST WALK IN ON you got NO LEG to stand on with weirdness!] Look, our robots don't look like people, just person-shaped. Basically walking suits of armor full of electronics. Like do you have any idea how much you miss food when you no longer have a mouth?

[church stop please shut up]

[myocordial]

...You seem very upset by this. Well, eating is enjoyable enough, I... suppose I understand?

Still, after all you just told me, I'm what seems strange to you, really?

[motherfucking_ghost]

Let me just say that I'm so glad I can taste things again. Sometimes I'm less glad, but mostly glad.

...And I mean--I mean, if you showed me a person who then transformed into a big armored thing and said he was a robot, after all that happened to me--I'd be freaked out a little, but I'd also probably just throw up my hands and go sure, okay, that's a thing that's happening now. It'd still be out of place, but I guess not that out of place.
