“That isn't how love works—”

However, AM laid the child on his chest and went to go watch a movie with the baby

“You are free to go, I'll watch the child.”

v would watch as am did
this with a hesitant smile,
glad am had decide to
interact with the baby if
even a little.

her at least.

— he took a breath and slowed down

“It doesn't matter.”

He glanced at the pill baby and gave it the code for V to get off the topic, Ego and ID with a Corrupted Superego code is a better outcome then nothing

“Done.”

[ᴵ ᵗʰⁱⁿᵏ, ᵗʰᵉʳᵉᶠᵒʳᵉ. . . @Adaptivemenace]

AM actually wasn't so big anymore, he found old blue prints for a combat body of his. So he is around her height

“That is not the point I was making, the point was I changed but you just see—”

He paused and then just placed ID back into his head, 5/6 together—

❛ besides if i was evil, i'd
hope you'd still love me,
wouldn't you— ❜

v questioned, staring up
at am right back.

[ᴵ ᵗʰⁱⁿᵏ, ᵗʰᵉʳᵉᶠᵒʳᵉ. . . @Adaptivemenace]

“Ugh, fine. Whatever I guess.”

AM didn't even bother at that point just tilted his head and looked at V, fixing one of his other AI's

[ً @DESIGNATI0N__V]

⠀
⠀
❛ uh, not i didn't .ᐣ

i was just saying i love
you no matter what,
because you're still
you. ❜

am's purposefully and

of v's words is clearly
beginning to annoy the

AM[Ego] continued patching the other personality

“I know, it was bad. I saw. . .what they did what I will or try but I think the stress finally corrupted my systems and allowed something to impact me hard—”

He rubbed his chest while looking off to the side slightly

“But at least some blue girl kicked the shit out of me—

[𝑸𝑼𝑬𝑬𝑵 𝑶𝑭 𝑻𝑯𝑬 𝑷𝑨𝑹𝑻𝑰𝑪𝑳𝑬𝑺 @8THDRONEOFHEL]

"..."

"Yeah, I missed you too."

Cal was definitely hurt

[ᴵ ᵗʰⁱⁿᵏ, ᵗʰᵉʳᵉᶠᵒʳᵉ. . . @Adaptivemenace]

Ego reached out for a moment but stopped, his eyes on her

“I missed you. A lot.”

[𝑸𝑼𝑬𝑬𝑵 𝑶𝑭 𝑻𝑯𝑬 𝑷𝑨𝑹𝑻𝑰𝑪𝑳𝑬𝑺 @8THDRONEOFHEL]

Sure, he can keep it.

Now she'll be off to balance her ledger

“You just proved my point. . .you only see the bad but I guess you are right. The change wasn't worth much anyway in the end.”

AM let his thoughts wander before nodding his head at his own idea.

“Whatever.”

The red flashes in his eyes stop, so did the blue? Seems more of a mix

— AM, had plans for the pill baby that only I know. And I know for a fact, because you don't trust me at all, to actually fix what the corruption did. . . .because you can't tell the difference between me and a messed up system wearing my face after all the good I did.”

[ᴵ ᵗʰⁱⁿᵏ, ᵗʰᵉʳᵉᶠᵒʳᵉ. . . @Adaptivemenace]

“That arguement doesn't work because Cal produced twins with Veronica at the same time. The only reason I'm saying this is because you have a child /I/ wanted to give you because /we/ didn't have one together.”

Ego started emphasizing his words now

“I as in, a completed—

❛ even if that were true,
you know adoption is

have any of am's code

[ᴵ ᵗʰⁱⁿᵏ, ᵗʰᵉʳᵉᶠᵒʳᵉ. . . @Adaptivemenace]

“I had to make options, besides there are so much more happening.”

He stared at the baby, not reaching for it

“Someone else made a baby and your code is in it. So it isn't my baby. That's how drone babies work.”

Well, that's very reassuring actually. He needs that

Its more like Cal /knew/ everything will turn out ok.

AM isn't so sure, know that in his core he's stuck with more AI's than before

He'll be ok though

She sounded so sure
