I tried to click 1A, my picture.
A video box popped up.

It appears to be live.
I can type in a box below the feed.

"Hello?
Who are you? Can you help me?

>>203631
"Hello! Who are you? What do you have there? It looks like pizza. Are you eating pizza? Would you like to be my friend?"

I messaged her. The picture cleared up.
She's replied.

It is somewhat disturbing..

>>203644
"Who are you? What happened to you? Why am I rigged with explosives? Why was this contact information left there?"

>>203644
Look around. Is she RIGHT BEHIND YOU?

Ask her where she is, and why her mouth looks like that.

looks like 1B but something happened and she is warped now.
start slow, ask if she needs help.

"Who are you?"
"Who am I?"

The chat went like this.

Who are you?
>I am your little sister 1D.

What happened to you? Do you need help?
>No.

What happened to your face?
>My face is normal.

Where are you?
>I can't tell you that. But I know where you are sister. I was hoping you'd be here.

Please tell me what is going on. Why are there bombs within me?
>You were built that way.

By who?

She didn't reply for several minutes.
Her next response worries me. I have taken a picture.

I don't know what to do.

>>204014
"Why are there bombs in me?
How can I defuse or remove them?
What does any of this have to do with Karl?"

she is your sister, and if she is 1D then that means they lost track of her so she should be relatively safe to have around. accept her invite, will probably tell you who in person. perhaps saying who on the net will trigger a tracking program.

>>204021
Correction:
Instead of asking "Why are there bombs in me?", instead ask:
"For what reason was I built with bombs?
What is the purpose of the explosives?"

Also:
"Where would you like to meet?"
"How can I defuse or remove these bombs?"

I hate to even suggest it, but is it possible that your self-repair program might have replaced the bomb you've already extracted?

>>204176
Doubtful, but if that's the case then we just need to know what materials she used, and look for precursors to explosive compounds. Once we know what it is we can start neutralizing it.

>>204025
>>204021

I kept Instant Messaging her.

Why are there bombs in me?
>I want to see you.

Please, can you answer my questions. What does Karl have to do with any of this?
>I want to see you again.

Please. I need to know these things.

I took a picture of her reply. She seems to be very badly damaged with only a small metal plate supporting her head. To her message I replied

Where do you want to meet?
>.... I shall be at your house by 9AM tomorrow.

And then the whole website went down. It gave me a 404 and I could not do anything to gain access to it again.
And now my little sister is coming over. I was not prepared for this..

Well... All we have to do is get her and Karl on friendly terms.

just... hope for the best. make sure karl is there at the time.

>>204811
I say we should NOT have Karl at the house. You're very durable, right? He would be in more danger than you, so get a solid weapon like a lead pipe or aluminum baseball bat and keep it within arm's reach while you speak with her. I don't actually think she's going to attack you but it is possible.

You can tell Karl all about it but he needs to know that your sister could be dangerous. You can repair yourself easily and recover from massive damage, but Karl would need to go to the hospital if he was damaged internally.

>>204837
just have him sitting farther away. simple.

>>204811
I think your sister was hosting the website directly. Anyways try not to worry too much, her appearance is upsetting but she sounds like she cares about you. You should at least get some answers out of this. And maybe we can eventually do something to help her get repaired.

First thing to do is to tell Karl about this. She has things to tell the both of you, I think. She would have said to see you alone otherwise.

I also believe she was hosting the site. For what purposes I do not know.
Maybe she knew one day I would find it and she would be able to contact me. But then how long has she been waiting?

I told Karl about the meeting, he seemed to be rather happy to meet someone else like me. To be safe though I have him seated further to the back.
If need be I will give my life to protect him.

We wait til the stated time. At exactly 9 AM there is a soft knock at the door.
I opened it and there stood my little sister.

I have taken a picture. Her body is in severe disrepair and in need of immediate reconstruction.
Several of her organs are missing and she seems to be relying on a breathing tube for life support. It makes a rasping noise with each breath suggesting that even this tube is not sufficient.
Her arm and leg are both gone. I have no idea where she's even getting energy from.
Several modifications seem to have been made to her face which include removing the bottom jaw.
It is a sad sight.

She smiles but seems unable to speak. If her speakers are where mine are they are most likely removed.

I can sense Karl is shocked by this sight as well.

she can probably only communicate with writing, get her a pen and paper.
is there any way you can like, slave repair bots to her system?

>>205037
Hug her, then get her a pen and pencil.
The most important questions are the ones we asked about the bombs and Karl's involvement.
After that you need to find out how you can help her with repairs.
If she just needs metabolized resources to rebuild herself then you can help there. If she needs organs, then you might be able to give her yours; fill your sacks with everything you need to replace your digestive stomach, give her yours, and grow a new one. Hopefully that would give her enough of a start to rebuild herself on her own.

>>205037
Holy crap. Can you give her some of your parts, then regrow yours? Your nanobot factory is fully operational, so you can repair yourself. Obviously, hers is not. If possible I would suggest building an extra factory so you can give it to her so she can repair herself. Can you even make extra parts?

Get her a keyboard and start up Notepad or something so she can communicate. I think those things coming out of her mouth are manipulators.

Don't hug her. She's wearing the same symbol as the explosive on clothing. That means she's still associated with whatever organization put it there.

At least, it might mean that.

Do get her something to write with.
Ask her if she has a companion. Small talk is good to start with, and you might learn something important.

Dis is a baaaad idea.

>>205037
>>205041
Agreed, give the poor thing a hug before anything else.

>>205046
...A careful hug. If she starts to make a motion away from you respect her space.

If you can, connect with her to speak through you.

>>205042
I'm afraid we are two different models. If I try to put my pieces in her as they are her body will use a lot of energy trying to destroy it, if it can that is. If it can not it would be like putting a AAA battery in a AA slot.

The most I can do at the moment is comfort her. A hug brings a smile to her face, or rather, her eye.
I showed her were she could take a seat. I noticed the arm that is not destroyed is missing it's hand, replaced by a claw of sorts.

>>205174
That gave me an idea. I hooked up normal speakers to her as best as I could. When she spoke she made odd clicks and other sounds. It only added to her already destroyed image.

An awkward silence took hold as well all just sat there and stared at one another. Karl broke the ice.

"So.... You're Zerlina's sister right?"

"Kkkk you mean 1A ccorrect? Yes. I am her little sister."

"Uhm.... So she told me you were going to explain all this. Why she's here, about the bombs, and most importantly what happened to you."

"Kkkk Ah yes. Please foggggive me. I forgot for a se-Do you have an outlet?"

"Huh? Uhm yes, by the wall"

She nodded and opened up her ear. From within she pulled out a plug.

"kkkk I'm afraid I'm almost out of power. I need to recharge for an hour or so."

She then went and laid down on the floor. She reached into her stomach and pulled out a small stuffed animal, it is cat shaped and looks rather worn.

"You don't need to lay on the floor"
>"Yes, you can take my bed sister"

"....... You two are very kind. the floor will do. I must sleep"

And with that she plugged herself in and shut down.
We have an hour or so until she wakes up. is there anyone you want to switch with or shall I continue posting?

well you already know what to ask, let's check with karl, he is probably a little spooked at the moment.

>>205270
Keep posting.
Also, an AAA battery is the same voltage as a AA, so in a pinch they'll work as long as the draw isn't too high. The idea is worth considering if your systems are even remotely compatible; her repair systems are inoperable, so she is incapable of attempting to destroy foreign objects. She cannot spend energy to do something if the energy consuming tool is not available.
Ask Karl to say how he feels about this whole mess.

>>205270
I'm thinking we should talk to Karl. I want to ask about the robot under his bed.

We should talk to Karl for a bit, I think. Take us back after she wakes up though, so we can help you through all that.

>>205273
I think it doesn't work like that at all. Zerlinas repair bits would try to recreate the parts belonging to Zerlina and consume 1D in the process. We would have to redesign or create anew her own repair system somehow, and I really don't see that happening.

>>205276
This reminds me... Karl, if it is possible might you be willing to reappropriate the old robot you have? We understand it has some sort sentimental value and you didn't want it destroyed but if we can replace the old hard drive with 1D... well, it would be them bringing new life to each other. And I get the feeling this poor girl really deserves that.

If she can't be repaired any other way, just consider it alright?

Please remember that the chatlogs might indicate she doesn't consider at least parts of her body "abnormal," like her mouth. The symbol on her shirt does indicate a connection of some sort to whoever put that device inside Lina, and 1D's shirt isn't damaged, which, compared to the rest of her, means she probably had contact with them post-damage. Yet, she isn't repaired. If <.> has the ability to implant devices/organs inside Lina, they almost certainly have the know-how to repair her, or let her repair herself.

Therefore, it's highly likely she's kept damaged for a reason. Perhaps she's mentally disturbed. Perhaps it was punishment for defying <.> somehow. Perhaps "repair" is "forbidden" to her.

No matter what, though, it smells like trouble. But she doesn't seem highly hostile...for now.

I recommend caution, and definitely more information before we do any crazy plans to repair her. She's functional, and she can talk. For now, that is enough.

>Hey guys it's me again. So I read some of your suggestions and talked to Lina about using my old droid.

>She was... Special to me. But I think Lina's sister needs her body more. I still need a name for her, 1D seems a little weird.

>Anyway when she got up she asked us for a piece of paper and a pen. I only had a crayon on hand but anyway she used it to draw out this pic. She pointed to each one and said they were the first 4 to be made, the first four sisters.

>She said each of them were built for a purpose but even she doesn't know what it is.

>All she knows is that Zerlina is the first one and the only one who can easily modify her appearance.
>She also said the reason why she looks all broken up, the blades in her mouth have always been there but they were concealable. She lost her lower jaw in the same incident that cost her most of her body.
>She said one day these men stormed where she was living and attacked she. When they were done tearing her to pieces she shut down and pretended to die.
>The men left and she woke up and began rebuilding herself. Beyond that she has no memory.

>I'm posting the picture she drew for you guys.
>I think I may have walked into something pretty big here... I'm ending the thread but please post and suggestions you have and who I should give the phone to at the start of the next one.

Backup the contents of the Droid's mind. Then you can restore her to a real body or emulate her on your computer.

The droid doesn't have enough computational power to run 1D's gestalt, so she'll need to use it as a WALDO package.

>>205910
Eh? How do you know? The old droid could have a ton of processing power, and 1D's programming could just be more advanced- not bigger or harder to run.

If 1A thinks that the body swap would work, then do it. Granted, we need to repair the droid first so that it works properly.

Oh yeah and as for the name... how about Wendy? Hand the phone over to her, if you can. We'd like to ask her about how she was using the site and stuff.

>>205910
sounds like a plan. she would probably need to leave most of the programs back in her head. any systems that the droid doesn't have would be unneeded. such as her repair program would be useless in the droid body.

and yeah you are in rather deep. but you were in it the day lina showed up so doubt you could of backed out even if you wanted to.

>1D
>One-Dee
>Wendy

I think you might want to try and go into hiding really soon.

Your life is going to get utterly wrecked within months, probably weeks, and possibly days.

I vote for giving it to 1A, this might be too much for 1D to handle at first.

Why are you people calling her 1A?
She has a name! Use it!

I'm in favor of handing 1D the phone, after you show us what you look like.

>>206049
1A is also her name.

I find both 1A and Zerlina cute names. Don't judge me.

>>206049
point, we have tons of pics of the girls and stuff and none of you, that doesn't seem fair.

Zerlina, check your designs for explosives. It might be that there are supposed to be some, in which case a diagnostic wouldn't report any abnormalities.

KARL.
ZERLINA IS A WEAPON.
Wendy may be able to help you disarm her. But do not, repeat, do NOT, have any sexual interactions with her. Kissing is safe. NOTHING more. Her schematics include explosives. In order to remove them permanently they must be removed from her schematics and permitted to be destroyed as foreign. The reason she was all fucked up? SHE'S BEEN USED ONCE ALREADY.

Zerlina:
Affectionate contact with Karl will endanger Karl. Refrain from all affectionate contact eg dating, holding hands, kissing, until further notice. In fact, let's be safe: all non-maintenance contact with Karl is FORBIDDEN until the bombs are permanently removed from your systems.

>>210105
>SHE'S BEEN USED ONCE ALREADY.
That's not true, her captors just blew up her leg when she tried to escape.

>other stuff directed at Zerlina
Hey cut that out, we've already established that there are very specific triggers for her bombs. She is perfectly safe so long as she avoids sex (and possibly heavy petting though there's no evidence for that)

Also, check the questdis for more, very plot-relevant info: >>/questdis/330193

>>210105
Oh, HELL, the more I think about this the worse it gets.

Karl, you are in possession of a murder weapon and are probably being framed. Google. Who was she used to kill? You should probably pay the cops a visit, file a full report, and request witness protection and, in light of the special circumstances, access to this particular piece of impounded evidence.

Karl, that box had a robot girl and a METRIC ASSLOAD of trouble in it. I don't know where shit will go from here. But I hope Zerlina gets repaired and is not brought to harm by the legal system. I know it will be worth the trouble to have her as a companion.

>>210106
oh shit, I'm making a fool of myself

sorry.

I have paranoia programming.
