5th Whistle ["anon" text]

[prototype_blues]

[Now those who know Blues, which probably isn't a lot of people, will find this post to be really really strange. More or less because he thinks he posted it under the guise of anon and well.

them tricksy pixies went and fixed that. So while he is very sure this was posted as anon? It ain't.]

So.

Say you have a machine, it's from your world but it has a flaw. One that you can't actually fix yourself because well. You can't.

It wouldn't go well if you tried, but getting someone else to repair it is a bit tricky. Because you don't want it to be changed too much, but you want it to be working properly. And there is the fact that you don't know any of the people who could fix it nor how good they are at what they do.

[wow, so rambly there get to the pooooooooooooint.]

I guess what I'm saying here is this; who here is good with machines?

That works. And I apologize for the oddness of the situation - Blues and I are brothers of a sort, and we've got some family issues, to say the least.

[Attached to the message is a schematic of Rock's own power systems.]

"Is this a prototype vs. production unit issue? Because in my experience its how one acts, not what version of software that matters."

Sort of...

Something went wrong with how his power core was installed, but I don't know what, exactly - but Blues is technically the prototype for me and the other robots like me at home, so I would imagine my schematics can't be too far off.

How one acts, though, that's a big part of. I've offered to help him, but he keeps blowing me off.

"Did your creator abandon him after the faulty installation? I know it sounds terrible but back home some of the prototype AI's went rogue because the teams that made them thought they were flawed and tried to shut them down."

No, no! Dr. Light didn't abandon Blues. He intended to fix the problem, but things happened - he said some things he didn't mean or think through due to stress over the power core issue, and Blues ran away in the middle of the night.

"Did he try and power down his neural cortex?"

I don't think so - as far as I know, Dr. Light never even got to get started on attempting the repairs before Blues took off. I can't say for certain, because this was before I was built, but Dr. Light has no reason to lie to me about what happened.

"Understood. I'll see what I can do for your brother."

Thanks a lot - I really do appreciate it! Just remember not to mention anything about me to Blues.

"I offer repair services to any AI in town and my computer maps out their design for efficiency. It's plausible that you may have stopped by the Nadesico at some point for repairs. I won't lie, but since I've added this to my database, I'll just say that's where I got it from."

Makes sense to me - our creator isn't around, and I can only self-repair so much.

Though I will keep you mind for whenever I do actually require repairs as well. And if you ever need a favor of some sort, I owe you immensely for helping Blues out.
