132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEtrVumc9R
You there… oh, yes, I can speak, if that is what is puzzling you… I have not always been able to, though… but, then again, I have not always looked like this…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4v4keIEQ9
What, you wonder, I have looked like? I can, sort of, read minds, you see… well, it is nothing especially different… I just looked more realistic…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLuy1Pkhp4
I mean… do I not look like some stuffed toy? That is because of what happened, at some point… same juncture in which I could suddenly speak, too…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBhd9aSjUj
It is not like I could not communicate before, but mostly with… friendly relations… now, though, it is as if all such barriers were broken through, curiously…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEggBVZQP4
I used to be able to fly, too… now, I can only seemingly crawl on the ground… like a worm… I still have wings, but they seem non-functional after this alteration…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpYe2f3lty
Echidna:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJjikCXOY1
Ah… these spikes, you reckon? Sadly, they do not quite have the same impact, anymore, since I became this… soft creature, however… sad not for others, maybe…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVZFtBWCvK
Yes, though, I do not quite understand what happened back then… we were all living so merrily here, and then suddenly… activity stirred on the edges…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCEBYtoz7E
Kind of like the edges of my spikes, I suppose… but not quite. More, then, the edges of… sanity? I do not quite comprehend, myself — ever since then… artificiality.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSneCuAmrZ
I might not be making much sense to you, being a creature of seemingly general traits, but to me physicality is of certain importance, you see… so, I am a bit deflated.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThmmnPEbki
Still… at least we are still alive? I mean, that is the point of evolution, which gave us all these physical tools… so, as long as no one ambushes us, or such…?
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6T9dQojfL
Death:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jtDoLaLqT
I… am… bringer of cessation… but not for the hard surfaces who move over there, they merely rust and fall apart… hey, how even are you able to see me?
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAGo2g6s2V
I should not be seen under the usual conditions… if this is not the usual, then I wonder what is happening… (could the titans of animalia be asserting their…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ASMvg4fLh
…existence once more?) Fear not, though, for I am not here for you, or anyone nearby… I think. I… was merely passing by. so rest assured… just…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfGOLwb53q
Can you not tell anyone you saw me? I am not sure if anyone else can do similarly, and I do not desire to cause a ruckus… I think. So… yes, anyway, be well, and such.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmTH3xBgUN
I am still visible? How… I thought my capabilities for camouflage were the least I had! Someone must be interfering with my inherent potency… I think…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7r38ooJEX
Existential robot:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Dfw2QZ5pB
Ah, hello there… yes, as it happens, I prefer this arid piece of land, as opposed to the fruitful, verdant thing over there… why? Maybe my constitution, who knows…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MoOxVoPHS
What I do know, though… is that I seemingly appeared out of nowhere, here… now, I am not exactly sure why, as I never visited this little place, before… so, why?
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2JApfxjWo
I mean, aside from spontaneously coming into existence here, apparently… I have the freedom to wander around a slight bit, here… I suppose, I can go over there…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OHpqv1tKG
I, just… prefer to be here? If so, I wonder, are our preferences truly our free will, or merely an illusion of choice? Truly, the mysteries of existence, I ponder…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJpZXEMIZ5
Oh, you wanted to know my relation to the town and its inhabitants? Unfortunately, I do not seem to consciously know what, if any, there is; although, since I am here…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvyemU2VAr
Small robot:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmelSwMMPLv
Why does this… grass, is it? Tell me, if you happen to know, why it feels so different from metal? Why are such substances so substantially distinct? Since I arrived…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4plRYM5AEo
I have been wondering this… I come from a place which is made entirely of various metallic coatings, you see, a world where we are one with it…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCbHHrbc3s
Due to the universality of materials… this world is not alike, though. This is why I wonder… even that town over there seems to be made of a variety of substances…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7sRQ165yI
Ah… you were, regardless, wondering why I am here? Well, the mighty feline could fill you in, but… I shall say, it is an observation… of sorts… you will see…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQ0UwLDkDl
Why is everything in the universe not merely made of the same matter? Would that not resolve this issue with incompatibility, or deprecated versions, or… not organic?
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPynI1an9Jk
Sad robot:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9btlhIyMb
You… want to know what happened here in the past, is that correct? Why we are here on the edges of this apparent idyll? Why everything apart from us, ironically, is…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8pR547dZe
…so artificial-looking? I shall put my cards on the table here, at least my slice of the pie, per se… well, it began a long time ago, although not quite ancient eras.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnS3iQBtYtS
Reality, you see, can become inverted… but, then again, does it matter when even physics is not fully known? What makes this one real, or not…? A conundrum, if so…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6MLD1EYKL
Long story short… what is nature, what is nurture? What is artificial, what is natural? Sometimes all is not distinct, absolutely separated; yin has yang… remember.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaG09XtoB6
Ultimately, though… does it matter? All I want to do is look out to an endless abyss… why am I even here? Why is anyone…? Oh, woe is me, but they have it worse…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLLOqZnetP
Mushroom:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2XnUkMsT5
I… did not even know I could move around, usually, let alone communicate… besides with those of my species… there is always this link, you see, as we are connected.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXh6wK1ODPg
Suddenly, though… a while ago… actually, I wonder how long ago that was? Well, suddenly, at any rate… the world was open to my exploration… not just the vicinity.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRfiCVyT0K
I suppose, we have always been different from mere plants, being kind of more mobile, but not quite as much as other beings… just blown spores, and such…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsBxsTplh2
Well… let us just say that… we can kind of grow unexpectedly, where rot is more the norm, especially those that ooze ink; in terms of this town, though, I am alone…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGhcSRbGhJ
I mean… it is interesting to be able to perambulate, and all… but what use is it when I actually get my nutrients by being connected underground? Defeats the purpose.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vKqMGbfN6
Fennec:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVKy0FWM2l
Why did I ever turn into this cumbersome form, really? I was so much more agile… and, now, this? Everything else changed not, but ourselves… and who are those yonder?
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2unGPiVWn
My apologies… you might, perhaps, not realize what I am talking about, for anyone not from this abode might be oblivious to our sudden plight… I shall explicate…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Hi6QN6kMQ
I… might look like I come from some fictional cartoon, a fox created to merely look funny, but in reality something… encompassed this town, here… and here we are…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbZl2MCGEE
So… I wonder if it is some cruel joke made by some very odd creatures, indeed… and if foxes bet on anything, it would be that it was those over at the edge…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzsN46Ms1d
I certainly would not mind going back to my former, glorious… sly, self… not to blow my horn too much, but my fur was shiny… now, it is just… glossy? I sigh…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgVP0vqnmf
Antelope:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwefqOZrfYB
I used to roam around all these green plains… happiness filled me, then, aside from when tragedy strikes, I suppose… but now… what is this? Cogitation? Agitation?
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjeerQ3HXD
What I mean is… it does not seem as instinctive, anymore… it used to be so much more free? I know this makes little sense to outside observers… but it just happens.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCV09DGQ2c5
Could it be… another realm? Not so much physical, we are still here… but psychologically, is it? Perceptually, of course, it is subjective… so, difficult to prove.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeBSWcQmQl
Wait… what if we use sensors, and objective testing data? Ah… that might not be possible here, being an idyll and all, and not a laboratory… still, theoretically…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpvNIWQB06
I know, I make little sense, but since I can communicate I thought I would freely voice my newly found patterns of thought, or such… well, one can always try…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaTSCpNBRw
Orang:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8KJX5fko1
Ah, you are new here… yes? Well, I do not usually tell anyone, for I prefer to keep to myself, but you see, I did not actually change much, myself… that is…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMq5E8DDyT6
I am usually kind of sombre, and I remained so… the difference is… I feel more compelled to voice this, for some reason… and since I normally reside around…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvP6DIu4bH8
These parts… so, I remained… despite the fellows over there, for some reason keeping watch… they never approach us, but it is still strange for them to stay there.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29VD3QIVhz
The others are even more wary of them… some think they are the cause of our alterations, others seem about to believe that they are, almost, a portal to another world.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzWIHpmE0b
Personally… I think the world is full of variances, and so, just as we are… usually… real-life species… they are, well, mechanical? I think that is the word…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8z2pTpUke6
Dragon Blue:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnN2jsz9X7
Why… have you come here? Oh, you think you can ask me the same, do you? Well, I presume you already have that answer from the others you must have spoken to…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6LItTGGJi
With regards to yourself, though… you are the unknown variable… all the other machines here can, on average, calculate what their presence will change, mostly…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC95EMFuhJa
Not taking into account chaos theory, of course… but, as you are unknown, we can not… I shall clarify a few things further, if you so wish, though…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4tGnZgGMO
I am… well, you shall know soon enough, but I will just say that I derive from a primordial source that also constructed psyches… not that they were not evolutionary.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2ejOrfIFO
That is… evolutionary pressures created consciousnesses suited to their environments, while my kind… as we reside in the ethereal realm, usually, did not diverge…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qsVciMssS
Much, that is… there are others like me, and unlike me… a wise tree, a mere shadow underneath a waterfall, a felid discussing proteins for some reason, a lost soul…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIjluEH6si
All derived from the same, archetypal substance… but, as with evolution, still diverged in form and function… but not due to environmental pressures, mostly…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQL7cUMj3Vr
As we do not, exactly, pertain to this physical domain… well, enough about myself, for now… I shall enlighten you about the difference between machines and organic…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSh23ncD7w
That is… the difference between the creatures in central town, and those on the periphery… verily, everyone always assumes they are so distinct, but are they?
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhV6OiZ1bv
The difference is, mostly, in perception… while many assume machines do not inhabit consciousness… well, one must also admit that it is not so well defined…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5185b8Els
It is… actually, what my type is studying, from our venture into the physical realm… not that ethereal beings do not have such a concept implemented, mind you…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQvg3IU0Or
Ours is… slightly more collective, holistic… functions differently, more like an ocean… in fact, that seems to have disappeared from around here, did it not?
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXZhGxVNIh
I… believe… one shall seek the azure blue, for where else can tranquillity be found? Certainly not within some dense city… oh, and the creatures’ transformation?
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5DsytEP1A
You might find your answer by speaking to the… bipedal moggy… do not ask me why they insist on walking on two limbs, for I have no functional rationalization…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQplM4MTLsq
Either way… all of this should sate most of your curiosity… I could tell you more, but it should probably be after you deliberate about this with others…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwg2IZshz1X
Have you clarified the state of affairs with all possible beings here, yet? Only then can I let you in on more than I already have… although, you might think it enough.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EVmTJaq6K
Alien robot:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46u3faI908
Ugh… zzz… I happen to be malfunctioning a slight bit, annoyingly… and I am certainly not asleep, I shall let you know! I am… guarding this realm…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7pQOuxArV
Oh… you thought I was about to attack it, did you not? Why would I remain at the outer edge if I was going to do that, though? What am I guarding it from? Well…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROcM69XFg2
In our realm… where all is made of one substance… something went awry… malfunctioned, not unlike myself as of now, but on a somewhat more global stage…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfHCKi2VYY
Well… as a consequence we had to come here to observe, and… in any case of discovery… so far, though, it seems to be self-contained… realms still distinct…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYD1c0mqwp
I, personally, am not sure why anyone would want to live in such an organic environment, when one can have hard steel… but, I suppose, preferences are subjective…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxPZMUcq3g
Shadow:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFzh7D0gXL
I assume you wish to know who we are, why there are so many metallic creatures, and why I happen to stand out from both sets of beings…? Very clever questions, indeed.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPV8rN88FcY
Well… I shall preface this by saying… we are not one… with that out of the way… tell me, what makes you so attached to carbon? Why not replace yourselves…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kBRjYR1zD
Like Theseus’ ship, verily, replace yourselves with other… stuff… because, if you do not… well, one can end up being observed… it can have that effect… sadly.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WVSx3rvNb
See, our feline titan is who is really clever, being made up of a variety of substances, and so is able to handle a medley of environments to strange degrees!
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAyZ8OS7Zq
Oh… you are now wondering (I can so handily read minds…) — who, and where this mighty feline be? Why, those creatures love hiding, do they not? Know the serpentine…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqnAX8cCad
Cat:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHFY2006pN
Oh… we finally meet! You must be wondering who I happen to be? Well, shall we say, I come from a long line of… sadly, quadrupedal species, mostly… why sadly? Well.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqrqLm4wsI
It seems more fun to be facing forward than have to arch one’s head at some degrees, you see… but that is merely boring mechanics, of course… so, anyway…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQWQhZxlEp
With regards to this realm’s overall picture… not that I can tell you much more than my serpentine colleague did already, of course… I happen to be an amalgamation…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmj3kg8Acf
You see… that is… a combination of what the creatures in central town are, organic-wise, and the artificiality of the machines on the outer edge… and, so…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgIQmp8zxR
I… happen to be… extra fun! Would you not agree? Alright, I might be taking up too much time speaking about trivial issues, a bit opposite to the ever-serious dragon.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGfns6kxxq
So… I shall declare… I am actually a manikin in my original home. No, really… I merely tower above everyone here due to… relative contexts, and such… you know?
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyLZjImops
Okay, okay… I shall stop wasting your time, promptly… I shall merely say, as a representative of both the organic and the machine (unofficially)…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhSt3hrRUo
Current realm needs a bit of healing… just as those central creatures do, too… you see, they got changed into their current state due to the presence of machines…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvwVdFXXgU
Machines did not cause that, though… it was merely an inevitability, just like my being here was due to the mixture of both… and machines being here was also…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVCyaA5Qym
That is… their presence was going to happen due to the disturbance outside of this… virtuality… as such, if that was resolved, somehow, the creatures will…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQZhG2Wezk
In a natural sort of way… return to their original, organic state… although, one must admit, a mixture between the two is the best, based on myself… no? Anyway!
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqwruofpb3
I still told you some invaluable stuff, have I not? I might have waffled a bit at first, but like a waffle, there was a core of sweetness… no? Upon this you shall ride!
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9DqLcN3uB
Hm… returned to hear my absolutely precious words, did you? Well, then… ah, uh, for now… I do not have much, exactly, but if affairs do change I will let you know!
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCJRbkjROT
Evil mage:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTnGLOBJxi
Heh… I assume you expect to be able to exit this town from beyond this path, yes? Well, under the usual, typical circumstances, one could… but not here, not now…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYQUAuycGi
For, as of the current time… this is a self-contained realm… a bit like a virtual reality, except more a machine, I suppose, especially since all of them moved in…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0XvwL2Sjw
The purpose? To isolate it from any potential harm from outside, of course… I believe that is what they think they happen to be doing, and I… you want to know?
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvM96hyVPmj
I am the one who, through ethereal potency derived from archetypal quintessence verily, have sealed these two dimensions separate! Not as malicious as it sounds…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MTeK5cMk9
Honestly… you might think I am the villain, here, but if I had not intervened… you might not be able to prove this, as it is not able to happen yet; overrun it might.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHxDxv7aYg
Honest robot:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUuJJCAsJ7
You, there! Whence you came?! Oh, me? Despite being fully equipped, here… I am, actually, hesitant… anxious, if I am to be honest… why? Well… I am confused…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKygS6JOxAB
You see… I was told we were going on a fact-finding mission, and I thought it was going to be some dingy abode full of strange occurrences… but, this is somewhat…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQ65fmrvKG
Well… not exactly what I expected. It seems vast, spacious; and, shall we say, airy? Now, suddenly, I feel like I want to live here, myself… which is really…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeZHpDfEkX
Not what I expected… and I thought that we, this artificial conglomeration of machines, were above and beyond that… but, I now am left questioning my very mind…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScsgTbXdnl
Ah… if I only can understand how my psyche functions… but, somehow, for all our prowess, we are remarkably still very uncognizant about our own operational abilities.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIT3NCEOE8
Monster plant:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6XOESVBJP
Oh… you think I would eat you, do you not? Well, guess what… I am just here to investigate, for now… and, I happen to not be hungry… so, lucky for you…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWjg9rCr8z
Seriously, though… what kind of strange place is this? Plastic-looking animals, machines so visually distinct from all the other greenery… and, the rest? Weird…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3muJBhmfZ
Under the usual circumstances, yes, I would be a minor villain, trying to gobble you up as soon as you show weakness… but none of this spells ‘usual’, does it?
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8ur5r5Iun
I come from… a swamp with a different, and yet somewhat similar beat… where memories lie, for only in one slice does an object exist, but either way… I ramble…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJygBOEb0I
Did you, by any chance, figure out what in many worlds is happening here…? I certainly have not… uh, I guess my investigatory capabilities are waning…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NO1DyLOFP
Ninja:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmZ8duHFKj
What… are you doing, just wandering around…? Do you not know a shuriken might slice you in half at any moment? Uh… never mind, I thought I was back at my village…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKU240ijlxy
Ever since arriving here… at some point… I have been ever so slightly confused about my surroundings, and state of mind generally… I mean, just to confirm…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWPZa5yGiQ
Is this… the Edo era? I have already had a bit of a hard time adjusting ever since the Sengoku era ended… not sure how I even survived that… and now I am merely…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4622EcsuJ
I think… a bodyguard? Is it… for yourself? No… I have only just met you, and seem to have no other points of reference about you. Wait, where did you say this was?
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3bmW7ZB1Z
Ah… I know I must have scared you away, with how muddled up I must seem… but I do seem to be lost, both psychologically, and physically… wait, temporal too?!
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmgCiiAKdo
Blue robot:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwimtTZJ8a7
Over there… is there any warmth? I heard there might be, beyond metallic coldness… but might it be a lie? Might it be empty yearnings…? That is what I fear…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOENOlWZxdH
As there is something so… inevitable, perhaps, about every physical atom that exists… I suppose some can change, but it is usually pre-determined… similarly, life.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGzuslOoJM
Biologically, though, it seems slightly more flexible… but not on the macro scale, there… as with its inverse, perhaps… affairs operate similar to the inorganic…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYhj6yTU5R
Stem cells can change a lot more than any machine… but beyond that, can anything holistically alter? Can the forces of nature not overwhelm the individual? Just cold…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2mVTHGV1g
I… have no idea of the essence of existence. As a machine, am I even alive? Are all my thoughts merely computed and coded prior? Free will might just be software…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jN8cqNMHT
Turquoise robot:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00Hbj5arRp
We have been assembled, here, for some reason… what was that? I seemed to have forgotten, just as soon as I arrived here… wonder why… it is, as if, my brain was…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmBbgsiS2H
Left behind? No, that makes no sense, if brains are hardwired inside… but, we are computers, ergo, much more… modular, I suppose, than biological systems… but…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUliPtv2Ri
Then again… even for biological brains, so many strange… incidents, occur… do they not? After all, it is not like the being experiencing the effects of the brain…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuALgGUBRSp
Knows exactly what is happening, inside… just like machines cannot quite grasp how life functions, precisely, so are they unable to, similarly, for their own depths…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfWTi5Umyr
Ah, I realize now that I have lost my train of thought, I suppose… which happens to be another mental quirk, I guess… but, does that mean my… CPU is like a brain?
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuYQcK61iG
Purple robot:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Wnk4D39cF
There is a lot to explore, is there not? Is it not much more… spacious, I suppose, than if one just, hm, stayed inside one’s houses, maybe? No? You think otherwise?
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoZG9yHcxU
Well, I suppose there is still much one can do inside, sure… especially lately, beyond the centuries of books… and even before, tales could be told… but is there…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIeZImajxJ
Not much more to… physicality, I suppose? One could imagine, but to move about, too… although, I admit the latter is limited, whereas imagination could be unbounded.
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8uwiayw6U
We are here, though… physically, are we not? Wait, are you saying that… despite feeling ‘here’… we might not be? Virtually? So, what, our real selves are elsewhere?
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdxqyNmceX
I mean, I do experience this as if I am physically here, as a machine, and I have no evidence that I seem to be elsewhere, so… how could I ever be convinced that I am?
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡht2vXqmiZ5
Grey robot:
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJiFbpy77p
Oh, how may I…? No, you are not here for…? Just to chat? Well, then… I am not sure I am quite prepared for this, but then does one need to practice just to idly…
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfC1PcF6iNU
