How long is the ride going to be? Anything we might have to worry about during it? Any idea if we actually have to do anything once we get to this facility, or are we just going to have to wait around until someone tells us why they need us back? Anything we shouldn't do there?

How long is the ride going to be?

>"How long is the ride going to be?"

["Not too long. A few days, maybe. It really depends on what we'll encounter on the way. And afterwards we'll have to walk a while. For some reason not trains go directly to administration."]

you know, the original demons were angels and souls that rebelled against god and were cast out of heaven. so the difference between an angel and a demon is simply whose side they are on.

oh jeez. she told you your actual job. you collected things and gave them to the chip giver god. the things you gave it would be considered 'garbage' as they had no value in and of themselves. broken Demons and stuff would also be garbage. so you collected garbage. therefor you are a garbage collector.

Yes, well, thanks anyways. Intentional or not, you did keep our good friend Zilee here from finding out first hand what it's like to be eaten alive.

So, Mr. B, Err...Ms. A? Is Ms. A the ranking member of your former trio?

You guys pretty obviously know a lot more than we do right now. We have a long, boring train ride in store for us.

Story time? Oh, yes, I do believe so. In particular, I'd like to know the context by which you referred to Zilee here. Was it intended as an insult, or insight into her original purpose? Disappointing if the former, raises more questions if the latter.

Also, you two seem intelligent. Why are the other cyborgs/robots/whatnot shooting shit up, like your Laser Beam Shooting friend that tried to fry us back when we first met? What the hell's going on around here? Where is this place, and whats with the mutants?

And did. You. Say. NANOSWARMS?!

>"Uh... What are nanoswarms?"

[B]["Any number of things. Basically, they're little robots that are programmed to do something. They are very, very tiny and some are useful. These days, though, most are badly programmed and incredibly dangerous. They're what killed OIT-Retrieval-Unit-25-E. I hope I'll never have to see anything like that ever again."]

No. 237751 ID: 13cc3a

okay, so A is all business, she does her job, no more, no less. B is a lot more sociable.
also while the birthing god avatar was destroyed the important parts are all underground. if it wasn't for the fact that turning them off would kill everyone still sleeping within i would suggest a full system shut down and reboot. another bit of good news, after looking back and putting things together, it seems the your groups was designed to be garbage collectors but as the system failed your programming fell apart. it's why the takeover failed, your brain structure is outside any in built design, so what you were made to do is not what you are.

and i guess have him give us a rundown would be nice, could match it up with what the Teller told you. we have time.

No. 237892 ID: fd6d7e

Degrading?? You take what's lost and broken, and the power of the Great Giver God makes it useful again. What's degrading about that? Without you everything would be garbage, including A and B!

They are lying to you, by the way. This little machine god, also known as the Core-AI has been flying around without touching the ground for much longer than DAA will have been searching for us. They say "back where it belongs" but that would mean we belonged at DAA and that we were at DAA before this, neither of which are true since we were flying in the sky far away from DAA.

Don't tell them that you know they're lying yet. Just be ready to escape. I think they might destroy you to try to get us, since we are rather embedded in your forehead. This is not to say the DAA wants to do something bad with us, but they're definitely lying about their past relationship with us, instead of saying why they really want to retrieve us.

Also what >>237710 was trying to say is that what you call "demons" and what you call yourself are made of the same components. The only distinction is a lack of communication it seems. So you can trust these two as well as you can trust non-demons (since you are able to communicate via us) but you don't have to trust all non-demons because communication does not imply that they are telling the truth. It might be better if you made a distinction between the irreparable and the functional, because there a very important distinction lies. The former cannot be fixed and can be very dangerous, and it's your job as garbage collector to fully destroy them and return their component parts for reprocessing. The latter can be fixed and possibly reasoned with, so you should not destroy them in the interest of efficiency.
