Well, you heard him. Give him your hand, tell him to use it on the card reader (to clear out our nanites and undo the jam, probably). We'll be at our desk, doing *absolutely nothing* with this printer. Which IT just threw out. She'll order a replacement, probably.

Maybe one of you should pet the dog. Or play fetch or something. Dog-daughter seems sort of stressed about something.

Weird she's so easily confused. The goo that ended up has half of you seemed a lot more coherent and able to figure things out before she converted/merged with you. What's Graphene missing?

Indoor fetch sounds like something that can only lead to a disaster. OK.

"Graphene, do yOU want to plaaAy fetch?"

"I am playing under the bed!!"

OK, suit yourself dog. If you've got something important you're working on, don't let me stop you.

>Weird she's so easily confused. The goo that ended up has half of you seemed a lot more coherent and able to figure things out before she converted/merged with you. What's Graphene missing?
It was all so bright and clear back then. I had things I knew I had to do, solutions to find.

>What, do I seem off to you?
I ask Jitters more or less those words you just said.

"You just seem a bit upset."

Upset? Why would I be upset?

I mean I only died a few days ago being hunted down by my birthday present as the culmination of a series of mistakes and bad decisions that all came together in a hilariously fatal punch-line. I was only saved (haha, yes literally saved/uploaded) by making the right mistake at the right time. Was that me being merciful? I'm a little confused around the time of integration. The world has apparently decided I wasn't supposed to die then and popped out a copy of my old existence. So how long until it notices me and corrects the error of my existence? Naturally in response to all this I decided to return to my office job of unheralded mediocrity.

>This is the perfect incentive to traumatize toad, you can offer to help her, but only if she lets you fix her face and knockers. Y'know, to be less toad-ey.
That's dumb. You know we call her Toad because she's short and squat and tends to puff up belligerently. Like a toad.

>Curse you, stimulants man, for accelerating our Toad timetable! How did he even pry himself away from his desk?
>Take the long route to help Toad: five minutes to get something to help from your cubicle, ten minutes to forget about Toad, one minute to suck all the nanites out of the card reader. Your destination will be on the right.
Yes, all decisions can be improved by stalling. Because until then the situation won't change.

I clap my giant nanomachine hands together. "OK, I'lLll helP. Give me a fewW minUTes. I'll try to f-f-find the mANual for that lock."

Jitters frowns and leaves without a word. He saw right through me. Well, I can't back down now. Back to my cubicle.

Been pretty busy, yeah. People are worried about the storm. Surprised the boss didn't hike up the price on some of the emergency gear.

>Shopkeep! There was a thing she was working on that I forgot what it was, and we should check on that.
Would that be the little cooler I decided not to open, my decision to enhance my dexterity and knockers or the scuba gear I had to put on display?

I know what you're really interested in: yes, my baps have bloomed and I think the agility stuff is starting to come in. I'm feeling kind of twitchy, like [default] said would probably happen for a while after fiddling with that DEX slider. It's making me a little clumsy but I haven't killed anyone yet. So now my strength, toughness, dexterity and chest are all augmented to some level. Haven't touched that intelligence option.

The drawback is I'm starving now. I ate my lunch early so now I need to ransack the cheap food and cook up some noodles or something in the break room. There's just one problem with that.

>Let's go back to Shopkeep! See if the place is burning down yet, or if she's being harassed by some other idiot who accidentally sicked a world-destroying disaster on themselves.
I'm being hassled by this idiot. He's in the aisles right now, probably making a mess. I'm going to have to clean up after him, I know. I don't think he has any world ending disasters but I've got that axe under the desk just in case.

Came in blabbing about how he's got a shift for his oh-so-important call centre job this afternoon and now he's grabbing a sleeping bag and other supplies in case he gets stranded thanks to that maybe blizzard. Talk talk talk. I played dumb about where everything was and told him he can find the stuff himself. Problem is he's taking ages. I'm hungry but he's probably coming to complain endlessly if I'm not at the counter when he comes back to haggle and it'll take forever to get rid of him. Worse he might just try to steal some stuff. I wouldn't put it past him.

Ah, what to do, what to do.

>Ah, what to do, what to do.
Poke your little goo girl in the belly like she was the Pillsbury Dough Boy.

Have your goo-doll morph into a giant spider. Prank slash terrify him with it!

Amuse yourself by shooting rubber bands at his head. When he asks what you're doing, explain that you're scaring off the wasp that keeps trying to land on him. Have mini-goo provide buzzing sound effects for authenticity.

Play spooky music from your knockers. Or should I say, your boo-bies.

>>751755
>>751702
Have goo-doll morph into a spider with breasts and play music as it slashes at him. Not like monstergirl breasts, just a spider with boobs on the thorax. That's sure to frighten anyone off.

>>751701
Keep your eyes on the customer and whatever mirrors you might have to keep track of em, keep your hands near the register or your knockers.

You can goof around with the music player and play some bass tones while you wait.

>>751701
He's probably waiting for you to come down the aisles looking for him. That's when he'll leap out and hit you over the head to knock you out and then he kidnaps you.

I don't think Mini-goo is capable of shaping herself. Besides, there isn't enough material for anything bigger than a shiv. We have a perfectly functional axe below the counter.

Theme music on, I glide around the corner. The guy turns and looks at me, his eyes solidly one foot below my eye level.

"So what, you decided to help at last?" The guy says.

"Eh, not really. I just wanted to watch you struggle."

He gets smugger (more smug?) instead of angry. Annoying. "Y'know what, I think I'd like a discount. I mean, I work with the emergency services so it'd be a real shame if your work here got blacklisted and burned down." What? Oh, his stupid call centre job. He's on the emergency line? And they let the peons blacklist people? What is this country coming to? Real ass, threatening me like that. Now I really want to teach him a lesson.

"I diED beCauSe of y-y-yOU!!"

I look around too. Ah, shit, I don't know where she is. I gotta do something.

It's the ghost of all the people you've killed through gross negligence! They heard we were having a sale on the souls of the damned. You should run before they get your name and call your manager!

>I gotta do something.
Point at him accusingly.

"You're haunted?! Bringing ghosts in is a violation of store policy! Get out and take your spooky spook with you!"

[default] jumps at his head but she must be pretty uncoordinated for a spider made of goo. She flails and latches on to his shoulder instead, legs moving more like an octopus than a spider.

Call Guy screams.

She bites him. His scream jumps up an octave. It's bleeding a lot.

He abandons his trolley and runs past me for the exit. [default]'s still firmly attached. Shit, he's getting out and taking his spooky spook with him! She can't survive outside!

Well you could always write this blob off, but that's kind of a jerk move, and call guy doesn't deserve a piece of frozen nanogoo.

>>751949
Grab her as he goes by? Or trip him so you can grab her?

If he's already past, it's time to put your long practiced skills throwing store goods to use- you need to nail him with something off the shelf before he clears the door.

When you get her back "so did you inject flesh eating or perpetual de-pants-ing nanos into his blood or anyhing?"

"Hey! You didn't pay for that thing! Drop it!" And rescue her. She'll need someplace warm to recover. Someplace like you. (Watch for additional shed nanites, they may form additional Graphenes if you thaw them separately.)

>>751948

>>751964

Default's killed before, well the clone bashful did. No reason to think the original won't to stay alive, especially thanks to the guy that's ignorance got her killed... by herself in a different body without her brain that may have been the best thing to ever happen to her.

The door bell jangles wildly as he exits. Call Guy stumbles on the slippery pavement outside and I use my enhanced physique to catch up.

I swat at his neck and snatch spider-[default]. My hand twitches. I drop her. Shit!

Call Guy staggers for a few seconds and then spins around, stomping back. "Aaaah, I'll kill it!"

It's fight or flight, make up your mind!

Is she dead, that looks pretty dead? Spiders curl up like that when they're dead but she's not a spider so maybe she's playing dead.

>Well you could always write this blob off, but that's kind of a jerk move, and call guy doesn't deserve a piece of frozen nanogoo.
Right, if she dies she can be replaced. Don't die though, lil' [default]! I boot her back indoors. A kick is probably less bad for her than lying in the snow for any longer.

"Spider's dead already!" I shout at Call Guy.

>Then tell him he'd better go get that bite looked at.
I grab him by the uninjured shoulder and shake him a bit. Get in his face. You're bleeding, you're bleeding, you gotta get to the hospital. That sort of thing.

Both mentally and physically shook up, he stumbles down into the snowy street, muttering about how he'll have his revenge or something. I don't care.

Back indoors, I gingerly pick the minigoo up. One of her legs falls off. That's not good. Her spiderbutt feels warmer, maybe its just her legs. I unbutton my top few buttons of my shirt and pop [default] in to do the body heat thing. Getting crowded in there. I might need a new shirt.

OK, I'll show you my convenient screen thing again.

My knockers have upgraded from HGE to HUGE. I didn't even know it could go past three letters. Looks like another victory for science.

Still a little twitchy but I think the other update's pretty much done too.

Gotta clear Call Jerk's trolley away and clean up the aisle. And the blood. Or is there anything cooler I should do?

>>752429
Got a screw or two to feed spiderfault? Just enough to recover lost mass (unless she can recycle the damaged nanites).

And how did your clothing stand up to the rigorous movement with the recent changes?

I almost want to suggest enhancing knockers, but nah, we're good for now.

Try giving INT a small bump in either direction? Flip a coin and say Heads = INT up, and tails being INT down obviously.

>>752437
...you may notice that INT only has a + by it, indicating that it can only be raised.

Did the jerk conveniently drop any money or anything, or did he just drop a big pile of work in your lap? Because it sure would be convenient if he could "buy" some stuff for you to feed to mini-[default].

Oh hey, at the very least she might be able to get some material out of the blood and stuff he left places, rather than you having to clean it all up yourself.

>>752429
Don't mess with your int. You don't want to do that unsupervised. Mental "twitches" or bad decisions could be bad, and the mini goo isn't bright enough to keep an eye on you.

>what do
Feed spider goo some screws. Maybe pretend like they're flies.

Harvest blood and uses it to make a badass and intimidating sign warning off shoplifters and rulebreakers.

Yes, feed the mini-goo's taste for human blood.
That's enough stat boosts for today... eh, one more Dex.

Start putting back all of call guy's non-purchases. Go into the mirrors aisle to make sure he didn't crack any with his face.

So is your dex high enough that you can use your fingers as vibrators yet.

>>752429
Bump up your INT. Then you can make more intelligent choices faster!

Have [tinyDefault] start savaging bits of cloth, and reworking it into a tiny sweater.
After that, she can create some tiny heating elements and have those all along her surface. Also, engulf some batteries.

If she winds up out in the cold again she can start consuming power to generate heat until she can be rescued or get back inside.

There's buckets of them. I get one out to feed [default]. She's gone down to just 50% spider but she takes it anyway.

"nyam nyAm nyam."

I'm getting a weird craving so I try some screws too. With my super-tough teeth and jaw I chomp them up and don't horribly cut up the inside of my mouth. Too crunchy and the taste's nothing to write home about but I feel better afterwards. I guess my personal nanamagoos are getting low on metal from all this upgrading?

Speaking of which...

>I almost want to suggest enhancing knockers, but nah, we're good for now.
Knackered on knockers? Works for me!

It followed my lead closely.

Hey now, all my decisions are awesome.

>We need someone we can trust watching our body, and possibly be tied down so we don't do something weird while our brain rearranges itself.
OK, that's it I'm calling an expert. I ask [default] what side effects I might expect.

She pauses in her screw nibbling. "um, one momeNt. bwuy bwuy byuw bweeeeeEE. you'll feel a l-little slow witted and slEepy while it's upgrading."

I feel like that half the time while a work so no drawback. Score! I wrap my arms around myself and squirm. "So I won't need you to tie me up?"

no?

It went over her head.

>Bump up your INT. Then you can make more intelligent choices faster!
With that feedback from [default]'s brains trust, I make the smart choice to go ahead. I set intelligence to a SML increase (the smallest increase). I'm going to be using big words and getting bullied any second now.

>Did the jerk conveniently drop any money or anything, or did he just drop a big pile of work in your lap? Because it sure would be convenient if he could "buy" some stuff for you to feed to mini-[default].
Call Jerk's wallet did not conveniently (five syllables, look at that) leap out of his tight pants. There's just a trolley of stuff he picked out but hadn't paid for. Woe is me.

>Have [tinyDefault] start savaging bits of cloth, and reworking it into a tiny sweater.
After watching her fumble for a bit I decide I'll just find a small doll and take its sweater. Maybe she is still damaged.

>After that, she can create some tiny heating elements and have those all along her surface. Also, engulf some batteries.
>If she winds up out in the cold again she can start consuming power to generate heat until she can be rescued or get back inside.
A single AA battery would be about the size of one of her legs. Uh, once she's back to normal legs. It's not going to fit. I think we're out of watch batteries.

>Harvest blood and uses it to make a bad-ass and intimidating sign warning off shoplifters and rulebreakers.
There's just a few drops in any one spot but there's a trail of it all the way to the exit. It would be a sign for ants.

>Oh hey, at the very least she might be able to get some material out of the blood and stuff he left places, rather than you having to clean it all up yourself.

My head hurts. Less than it should, I think. A dull ache. Thank you nanomachines.

I had a bad dream. It was cold. I was chasing after something but I tripped and fell. The snow swirled around me as I sat up on my knees and realised I was totally alone. It's probably a metaphor for brain problems.

"What you're looking for, you can't have it." I hear Shopkeep say.

"HmmMm, neeEds more saSs." [default] says back.

What are they talking about? Where am I?

Let me think. Where was I? This morning I was watching TV since using the wifi with my phone was really slow. Maybe [default] ran through the data quota or something. I was watching some mediocre movie. Right, I heard some noise in the basement. Graphene was down there. I called out and the last thing I remember is a tsunami of dog. She really doesn't seem to know her own strength. I should to do something or she might end up killing someone.

How long have I been out if Shopkeep's home? I don't feel in any rush to move. It's warm here. Soft, comfortable, a little jiggly.

>Son: wake up in a pile of goo.
I must be in bed with [default]. Speaking of killing, I still don't know where exactly I stand with her. I mean she was trying to kill me before I cancelled that order and then she set up an elaborate prank to sabotage my date with Shopkeep. I think she wants her all to herself. I feel like an impostor sometimes. I didn't earn any of this. [default]'s the original, she's the one who got the girl, she has me outnumbered six to one, she's still a little psychotic and she's basically better than me in every way. I'm kind of screwed.

I start to open my eyes.

"Howdy stranger." Shopkeep says, leaning over me. "What can I do you for?"

Wait, no this isn't right. Those eyes! The goos have replaced her and now they're going to eat me! I should have known that yanderes are shit!

My mind flashes back to the movie I was watching. Typical plot: man becomes millionaire from inventing microchip. Success means isolation. Becomes very lonely, meets girl. They hook up eventually. But it turns out his new love had been a spy from the beginning and she poisons him. He has a synthetic liver from a shrapnel wound during WWIII so he didn't die. And because he'd been a commando or something he hunted his girlfriend down and kidnapped her out. Out on his millionaire yacht he put a gun down on the table between them and asked her if she'd ever really loved him.

Then the yacht exploded. Who writes this shit? I guess it's a metaphor for how struggling for success is futile and someone's going to kill you.

These thoughts all race through my head instantly in a torrent of inane bullshit! What should I do?!

>>753059
no, it's another prank bro. ask for next upgrade to be a reinforced shock absorbent skull.

Squeeze Shopkeep to make sure it's really her.

>Wait, no this isn't right. Those eyes! The goos have replaced her and now they're going to eat me! I should have known that yanderes are shit!
Or she opted to have her eyes enhanced.

Or [default] is pranking you with a fake shopkeep, like when she pretended to be that other girl at the restaurant.

>I think she wants her all to herself.
Well too bad, it's Shopkeep's harem.

>What should I do?!
Stop panicking and listening to your head injury before you make an idiot of yourself.

>>753061

Clearly the only logical option.

Oh, and if it isn't her, but is in fact a goo replica:

"AAAAH, NO! STAY AWAY! DON'T STEAL MY FACE, DON'T STEAL MY FAAAAACE!!"

>>753059
Freak out and flail around like an idiot. Then calm down a bit more and tell Default that's a terrible way to wake someone up.

Maybe this is [default] trying to have Shopkeep all to herself by giving you your own shopkeep, rather than strictly a prank.

>>753059
Man I don't want to be the voice of reason today. Ah well...
Anyway the real answer is she's creating a goo stand in so Shopkeep doesn't have to go to work.

But that's boring so continue freaking out about dopplegoongers.

>>753065
Now now, let's not be ungracious, we did wake up in a pile of nanogoogirls.

>>753068
Actually, yeah, good point. Who cares what's going on, enjoy the the zen of the nanogoogirl pile for a moment.

Pretty sure Shopkeep there is just [default]'s Shopkeep impression. Remember the lady at the restaurant? She can do skin colors.

Smooches for everybody! You're basically all dating at this point, it'll be fine. If anybody complains, you've got a minor concussion and it's the dog's fault.

>>753059
"AHH MY DREAMS ARE RIGHT, THE NANOGOO APOCALYPSE"

>>753059
Man, you should check your own eyes. They're also looking awfully grey.

>>753085
You need to order default to eat 0 earths.

"Nice try [default], but I know you're not Shopkeep."

>>753059
"Why are you wearing a mask?"

Oh, right.

>Pretty sure Shopkeep there is just [default]'s Shopkeep impression. Remember the lady at the restaurant? She can do skin colors.
That one's here too, staring at me. It creeps me out, the way it's always watching me. I don't know why [default] keeps that one around. Probably to mess with me

>>I think she wants her all to herself.
>Well too bad, it's Shopkeep's harem.
I'm not going to tell her that. She'll get mad.

>"Nice try [default], but I know you're not Shopkeep."
"Aren't I?" She says. Agh, her eyebrow game is strong!

>Man, you should check your own eyes. They're also looking awfully grey.
Don't start messing with my head like that!

>"AHH MY DREAMS ARE RIGHT, THE NANOGOO APOCALYPSE!"
I screw shut my eyes, I flail and shout.

>"AAAAH, NO! STAY AWAY! DON'T STEAL MY FACE, DON'T STEAL MY FAAAAACE!!"
Blopkeep baps me with a pillow.

>Now now, let's not be ungracious, we did wake up in a pile of nanogoogirls.
>Actually, yeah, good point. Who cares what's going on, enjoy the the zen of the nanogoogirl pile for a moment.
I give a matyred sigh, tossing one arm back over my face. "Oh woe is me, I am defeated. Here I am, in a pile of nanogoogirls and here I must remain."

She gives me a few minutes then she presses the pillow down on my face.

>Squeeze Shopkeep to make sure it's really her.
I struggle free! I sit up, raise my hand, look down from her face and- Damnit [default], you're just messing with me now.

"Your impersonation isn't very good." I say.

Her face slowly widens into an awful smile. "It fell a little flat?"

Argh, it burns. She played me like a damn fiddle. At moments like these I think there may be too many smug goo women in my life

>Anyway the real answer is she's creating a goo stand in so Shopkeep doesn't have to go to work.
"So you're planning to stand in for her at work, huh?"

"Oh, I didn't tHink of thaaAt. [default] mutters to herself.

"Nah." Blopkeep says.

>Maybe this is [default] trying to have Shopkeep all to herself by giving you your own shopkeep, rather than strictly a prank.
Hmmmm. "Is it for me then?"

"Nah. Her and me. We're gonna do it." She's got the voice down, I have to admit. She leans in and whispers. "Clone makeouts."

I guess that's fair.

>You need to order default to eat 0 earths.
"Oh, eat zero earths by the way."

Blopkeep crawls towards me and boops my nose. "You're no fun." This is getting kind of weird. Sexy but also weird. The bed thumps. Agh, Graphene must be under the bed again. I'm basically hiding out at home today but maybe there's something important I should be doing?! Aside from putting my dick in something, I mean! This could just be stress and paranoia talking I guess?!?!

>Ask for next upgrade to be a reinforced shock absorbent skull.
Like that maybe?!

>>754239
You could try to upgrade Graphene's brain so she isn't so foolish. Feed her some electronics... wait is there even any left you can spare? Go rummage in the basement.

Oh, you could also try to figure out why you're alive. Can you contact your father? Do you have anyone else to contact?

>>754239
Y'know, you could probably convince her to let you join in on the clone makeout if you don't mind certain things happening to you.

as always the true answer is stick you dick into the goo

Well, you know what relieves stress...

Teaching Graphene more dog tricks! Such as *not* tackling your owner, playing dead, playing poker, and speaking.
Ask default how work is going.

>Sexy but also weird
The best kind of sexy

>hiding at home
>something important I should be doing
Figuring out what to do with yourself? Just cause you're a clone doesn't mean you sit at home as your own pet the rest of your life. Someone else has your job, you've got goo superpowers, maybe you should be looking for something new to do? A new job! A new hobby! Something you could have never done before.

>>754263
Yes, you need a new hobby. This one didn't turn out to be dangerous enough, somehow.

maybe get a thermostat in your guts, and the required other power of being immune to temp extremes. then you can be a walking heater for the goos. this will make you too useful to throw away.

>>754239
Ask her if she could also make a clone you... that is her.
Mostly I just want to know if she'd feel weird looking like her old self again.

You know, I wonder if you consider yourself a different person than Bashful, and consider Default the true Bashful and you're just like her son with all her memories pre-goo. You could call yourself a different name if you wanted, I mean, we call you Son, so... like is THIS you real name actually now Son?

Inform her she has some work to do if she wants the clone makeouts to be hot and not creepy. Shopkeep probably won't be into her own eyeless bisected torso.

Have you told Dad you're not dead yet, or that he has a spare son yet? Maybe you should get on that.

Sticking your dick in goo sounds pretty important. She could use some stress relief from work while she's still at work. Get to work!

Maybe ask how work is going. You can enjoy the less fun bits of your life vicariously now.

>>754239
Oh, huh. The weird thing where she doesn't like being separated from "herself" is probably extending to you. Likely why she's so clingy.

Don't be a complete goof. Wrap your arms around them for snuggling.

>Y'know, you could probably convince her to let you join in on the clone makeout if you don't mind certain things happening to you.
I do mind! I don't want to become some kind of double-clone.

>You know, I wonder if you consider yourself a different person than Bashful, and consider Default the true Bashful and you're just like her son with all her memories pre-goo.

She's not my mother, that'd make things extra screwed up. I'm real! I'm a real person and I have a real name!

>Inform her she has some work to do if she wants the clone makeouts to be hot and not creepy. Shopkeep probably won't be into her own eyeless bisected torso.
"So shouldn't you be showing more skin?" I say to Shopgoop.

"Hmm, I suppose." She starts changing colour.

>As always the true answer is stick you dick into the goo
>Well, you know what relieves stress...
"And do you want to have some fun then?" I employ my best suggestive eyebrow waggle on one of the the other [default]s.

"NaaAh you waited too lonNg."

This is bullshit. I can't believe that didn't work. It's an omen that everything's not going to work out in the end, or something!

"What were you e-exPecting? 'Slot your genes into my moTherboard!'?"

"Default."

She clenches her fists and rocks on the spot "Kyaaaah, there's nO user serviceable pAarts inside! My buffers are overfLowing! Commit access violaaAations on me!"

"Default no."

"Honestly though, yoU have been plaYing this game for a long time. Don't you h-have anythiNg else to do with your tIme?"

And with that, [default]'s kicking me out of the bedroom...

Between the office worker, her office reinforcements, her miniature goo and the shopgoop she's going to send to the stores, she's going to be in a lot of places at once. So she's decided to take it easy for now and turn the bed into a sort of sleeping nanogoo cuddle pile. She gives me the rather insulting instructions to not burn the house down and flops over. She's snoring, probably just for my benefit.

Maybe I should play a prank on her.

As I consider that, Graphene slides out from under the bed and vibrates enthusiastically. "Hiiiiiiiii?!"

I should probably take her out of the bedroom too. What are you even doing under there, dog?

>Have you told Dad you're not dead yet, or that he has a spare son yet? Maybe you should get on that.
Sent him a letter but haven't heard back yet. Dad's weird like that. Can't get in touch with him by phone or email.

>You could try to upgrade Graphene's brain so she isn't so foolish. Feed her some electronics... wait is there even any left you can spare? Go rummage in the basement.

>Yes, you need a new hobby. This one didn't turn out to be dangerous enough, somehow.
I guess I need to do something with my life! What should I do?!

Learn a programming language. Test it on the dog.

>>907931
teach your dog some new tricks

>>907930
Teach Graphene new tricks. Spend time with your weird cyberdog. She is cute and deserves your affection, and unlike [default] has absorbed you zero times!

I think the biggest thing is teaching Graphene just how freakishly strong she is and that she shouldn't break furniture/home/you/other people with full-on body slams.

A dog is fine too.
What did you do with that sled? Where did you even find a sled? Better eat the evidence.

Stick your dick in Graphene

Don't fuck the dog.

Try to get a listing of common dog behaviours out of Graphene. You want advanced warning if she is going to chase things or such.

Take Graphene back down to the basement, start digging out a sub-basement. Best solution to overcrowding is to create more space.

>>907930
Show her more pictures of dogs and ask her which breed she likes most as a goal to improve her self image.

>I don't want to become some kind of double-clone.
I mean you sort of already are.

>I guess I need to do something with my life! What should I do?!
Since you're reinforced with nanogoo and have a goo-girl clone backup that means you can enjoy every young adult's favorite hobby of dangerous extreme sports without having to really worry about what happens if you get killed.

So go out and do some x sport snowboarding on a volcano or something. Take Graphene with you, train her to be your rad dog. What crazy daredevil doesn't need a mechanical canine sidekick?

I think we should go with having graphene carve out more rooms in your basement. Can you make more nanites out of dirt rock and cement?

>>907930
You could play chess.
Or go help shoptits at the store.

Actually, can default or graphene do any sort of 3D printing? without leaving nanomachines in the end product of course.

Lack of architectural background + overenthusiastic half-tonne dog with matter-erasure function = sad house. Non-innuendo plans named "Basement Expansion" will lack my vote pending further elaboration.

Attempt to prank [Default at work] by convincing [Defaults at home] to transmit instructions to "Expand the Basement" directly to DaW's nanite distribution systems without alerting the 'consciousness'. Maybe hide it in junk data. They could spam asking if the new guy is hot, then admit that they are just doing it to prank themselves, followed by a discussion on self-deprecating humour. That should provide plenty of signals too annoying to look too closely at, and it even admits that it is a prank, but hides the body-modding prank behind an annoying spam prank. It is also a useful experiment into information warfare. If Default can trick Default into a rounder rump, then someone else might be able to trick Default into becoming Giant Deadly Spikes Everywhere while holding All of the Orphans.
