Well, let's see what he does next. Wriggle around a bit and give him a questioning sound through the tape.

Let's see if we can handle this without revealing we're a jetal, because there's a slim possibility someone is looking for us and this guy is a patsy being used to flush us out.

>>725293
If we want to freak him out immediately:
Deactivate Bio mod. Twist head around 180 degrees and tell him he's been a very bad boy. Through the duct tape.

However, I want to really sink him. Let's get him on as many charges as possible. Right now it's just assault, but if he takes you away in the van it goes to kidnapping. Plus, if he's done this before and simply hasn't been caught, he might be holding other girls in his house.

Struggle with him but let him tie you up or whatever. If it doesn't take too long, maybe let him try sexually assaulting you too, but immediately put a stop to it.

Yeah keep pretending to be a normal girl and keep up our bio module. Until he does something dangerous just pretend its some kinky role play.

Now if he does try to kidnap you totally let him drag you off to his sex dungeon. We still need to see one of those and can get a ride back easily enough.(plus loot)

>>725304
A bouncer is currently ready to take out the van if it does any moving.

Hmm faking getting kidnapped to find his base sounds like a idea.

Let Polatt know what is up and keep acting like a normal girl.

Oh my goodness best idea:

If he goes too far, we don't even need to use force. Just turn on the illumination mod and start flashing police lights. Dim them a bit compared to the last test, and he won't realize they're coming from you instead of being cast on you, in his panic.

Roxy puts on a slightly scared look, but wiggles against him with some questioning sounds through her duct tape while he pins her onto the floor. He presses a button, and the van starts to drive.

"Always knew you bitches were dumb as a brick. Now you're gonna have to earn that 50k from me and my buddies, and I'm not going to give it up easy." he says.

Scanners indicate that that is going to be an unreasonably long time. Polatt says that even if Roxy considers this fun, he'll have a tougher time spinning things if the trap was sprung well after Roxy was nabbed, during which who knows what will go on.

A) Have Roxy beat him up
B) Have the robots stop him
C) Insist to Polatt on letting the creep at least drag Roxy off to his home base to add up the charges, and just in case there's more nefarious stuff going on there.

Eh, beat him up and take the cash. And the van, maybe? Can we do that? Take his rape van?

A. We can't afford to spend the time chasing down every possible thing he might be associated with.

What do:

Crank up jetalium illumination to blind him (and or start flashing police lights to make him panic), and then physically restrain him. You're a super strong liquid metal robot, you can have him grappled and morph handcuffs on him in no time.

Then use his own ducktape on him and march him out to the bouncers.

>>725313
Unless the police impound it, the Dead Batteries could probably sell it.

And yeah, totally pocket his money.

>>725310
Nah, just beat the shit out of him. Go for the sides of ribs, groin, and kneecaps.

B, If he's got accomplices it'll get more complicated if we let him drag you off, and no need to give away your strength. Have Polatt spring the trap and then let him know about these supposed buddies of his.

Ehh while it would be fun to go along with this its probably not worth our the time it would take. Unless we can wrap this up before morning lets have the robots stop the van.

But do stay in character. Keep our cover intact just in case.

>>725310
>always knew
I think this is the first time he's done this. We don't need to let him take us all the way there, but... let's wait a little longer, and have the robots stop him. If you don't beat him up, then there are multiple witnesses that will say he was trying to kidnap you.

Besides, it's not like the authorities won't be able to find his house. If he's got anyone stashed away there, the cops will rescue them.

B. Have the robots stop him. I'm wary about stopping him as a jetal, since we needed a mod to not accidentally crush someone during sex, and we have no fight expertise. We'd be giving ourselves away AND maybe get in trouble for excessive force.

We don't want to spend too long on this, and his phrasing that he "always knew you bitches were dumb as a brick" makes me think he hasn't actually done this before. Plus, you know, this is a club run by a mob. This isn't going to the police. I'm sure the DBs will be getting any info they want out of this guy.

Find out how much time is unreasonable.

Sort of leaning for C so we can really get this guy. Whatever we do stay in character so no one realizes you are a jetal.

Is it morning yet? Cause if not we could spare a bit of time to get to wherever we are going.

But if he lives 3 hours away or something let the robots take care of it.

A.

If we go C, we could also shake down his buddies for their cash. But if they turn out to be poor or well armed, it might not be worth the trouble.

Changing my vote from A to B.

Roxy sends the word to Polatt to spring the trap, and she'll keep up the biological facade. Within a moment, the van is caught on something as it slows down to nothing and is lifted off the air. The back doors are opened and a robot comes inside to yank the creep out before he and Roxy finish tumbling from the stopped van.

The Dead Batteries claim the van, and hold the guy for questioning as to if he's done this before, although signs point to no. Either way, upon finding that the van was not registered under his name, it is promptly taken away from him. His goods are looted, and he has 80,000 in cash, which is all given to Unity at the request that the car is kept for the batteries, as it's too crappy a van to sell for much anyway.

Roxy goes back to stripdancing for another (belenosian) hour or two until the night shift is officially over.

With another 37k from that, she's up 117k. She's about ready to go back to Loviro's, unless she wants to keep on working or talk with Polatt in person any more, as he's currently watching from afar.

Just give him a wave as you go, I miss dad!

...I'm tempted to not get changed before seeing dad. But we should probably wear something else!

Ask Polatt what sort of thing he likes doing to relax and what times he's free, you're interested in getting to know him better. Then go to Loviro's. I don't care whether or not we change our outfit on the way.

>>725332
Ask Polatt if he'd like to get a bite to eat. You haven't tried eating yet. Jetals can digest things, right?

>>725333
How's Gambler doing with the online Gambling? What's the rate of return on that?

>She's about ready to go back to Loviro's, unless she wants to keep on working or talk with Polatt in person any more, as he's currently watching from afar.
Go chat with Polatt before leaving. Feel free to be flirty, but don't make an overt pass at him. We're willing, but nothing's going to happen until he lets us know he wants it.

We can go have fun with Polatt if he offers, otherwise let's check in back home. And forget to take off the cash filled fishnets.

Go backstage, shift into your daughter appearance and get re-dressed into something respectable, we're going to go visit with dad. Text him if he wants anything you could fetch him, you have some money. Ask Polatt if they found out anything about who that guy's buddies were, because they sound dangerous if they were in on what this guy was up to.

I want to say to turn up at home with the bio-emulator on and give Loviro a big warm surprise hug as soon as we see him. He's super keen on jetals, so it might not get the most positive reaction right away, but he's smart though, he'll realize what's going on quick. Us making ourselves look as close as possible to what his biological daughter would look like will probably make him feel awkward, but I think it'd be in a cute way.

Keep your current outfit and change your appearance back to your default and go chat with Polatt for a while. Let him know you are going to visit your dad for a bit and will be back later.

Ask him what he thought of your first time dancing.

Let Polatt know that you are headed out for a bit and go see dad.

Make sure you have your cutest stripper outfit on so you can show Loviro everything you have learned today.

Yeah put on your sluttiest slut outfit and then a trench coat over that. Then head home.

Roxy calls it a morning, and heads out giving Polatt a wave. She sends him a text on her way back to Loviro's. Loviro confirms that he doesn't need anything picked up by her, but thanks her for the thought.

"I'm going to be going out soon. I'd still like to get to know you better! Would you like to get something to eat later on?" Unity asks to Polatt.
>"Sure, if you've got the tastebuds down pat. I don't get much sleep, so any time's good by me."
"What else do you do for fun?"
>"I took out my fun chip years back, Roxy."
"Wh- what?!"
>"I kid. That was a joke." he says, completely deadpan.
"Haha, you got me. But really, the question?"
>"Just the real simple stuff. Games, movies, the works. Doesn't matter what it is, long as it's with people I like. Now you've had a long night, you should go get yourself recharged. You're worth dropping my business for, so keep in touch, but I've got a lot of stuff I should get to if you don't have anything urgent."
"Okay. Oh, did you find out anything from those guys that creep mentioned?"
>"Yeah. Still investigating it. We'll let you know."
"Okay, and what did you think about my first time dancing?"
>"A real natural. If you didn't prove you could do a damn lot more, I'd say you'd found your career."
"Thanks! I'll keep in touch, see you later!"

Unity heads back to Loviro, only wearing a trench coat so that she wouldn't get bothered or targeted by pickpockets on her way back. She takes it off so that she can demonstrate what she's learned.

>"Ah, there y- are." he says, tripping over the sentence.
"Hi dad!"
>"Ah - you're the first to consider me your father this quickly, Unity. Your outfit, though... you've gone... stripping?!"
"I'm sorry, I know you said that jetals are capable of more things than sex, but I've found that it really does sell. A lot of people seem starved for it, too."
>"Let's just say... I love all my jetal creations, and you're not the first one to come home with cash stuffed in your fishnets. Know this. You are capable of far more than whatever you've done tonight, however, the reason why jetals are not obsolete over robots and biologicals, even from a power standpoint, is a matter of free will. Robots, whether robots from scratch or robots from biologicals, lose much in ways of thought that goes outside of well understood algorithms. Even biologicals only have a tiny fraction of their brain capable of free will, and even that is subjected to the power of the rest of their brains, so much of even that is an illusion. Jetals, however, are a product beyond biological brains to have the stability of a robotic brain but the innovation of a biological, with better free will than either. I suppose what I'm saying, is that my absolute favorite thing about jetals is that they have the power to choose their own fate more than any other entity we know of. If I tell you you can or can't do this or that, then I'm spilling blasphemy over the beauty of what it means to be a jetal. If you, a jetal, want to do little but play games and engage in the most primal instincts that biologicals have had, then as far as this biological brain is concerned, it just means that perhaps the empire shouldn't dismiss such feelings and activities as shameful and obscene."

Well I got up to a lot more than just stripping today. That was just for fun at the end.

I made some criminal friends and went to a big party to meet some more criminals. Then I had sex with one of the heads of the lollipop syndicate and we went bounty hunting! Then I almost won a card tournament and had sex with this cute girl there. And then we captured the guy I was after but got probed by some noble asshole guards who he worked for. And then blah blah blah.

Tell him the whole story over breakfast. You have much higher aspirations than just stripping and if he ever takes the blocks out of his head you will chat with him about it.

Honestly dad life is going pretty good. Any word from my sister? She is a bit surly but I wish her well.

"That's wonderful, but I just thought it was interesting and enjoyable. Plus you shouldn't be so hard on yourselves, natural urges are manageable and each of my own personalities has its own predispositions anyway.

I made a bunch of friends, did some bounty hunting, and played collectible card games earlier today. Interesting strategic exercises. Life's good so far. How've you and my sister been?"

Be sure and apply you biological sense scan on him for a better read.

>You are capable of far more than whatever you've done tonight
I did take in a 1 mil bounty using nothing but my social skills and some spare change. He had B and A rank modules and I didn't even need a weapon!

>what else do
Tell him what we've been up to tonight, ask questions about how tagged modules work (we might want to steal some in the future) how jetal feedback works (so we can better exploit it) and ask about that weird scan we were subjected to. See what they could have learned.

Then make a pass at him. Because you want to make him feel good! And because as naive AIs who have never had families, you have no idea what an incest taboo is. Poor Loviro.

We might also want to ask how Vinyl is doing. (We might want to talk shop with her, one working girl to another).

The empire is silly to think so. Trying to evolve to a higher state is all well and good but if you give up the fun messy part of being alive whats the point?

Sex is a part of life and always will be. If someone does not want to enjoy it then that is fine. But they should not try to stop other people from the finer things in life.

All of the Ai's that live inside of me are having a blast learning about sex and life in the empire. Its definitely brought me and the boys together recently.

Anyways want to have breakfast and talk for awhile?

We should hit on him a bit. I mean we don't know any better and why wouldn't we want to show off all the fun stuff we have learned?

I wonder if the science empire has an incest taboo specifically or it's just part of their eugenics complex. If it's the latter, non-reproductive sex between relatives or reproduction where there are favorable genes/no unfavorable genes to concentrate might not be worse than regular sex.

Let's find out and flirt with him. Offer to take off the stripper outfit if it bothers him.

>>725366
Aww, that was a really sweet speech. He's supportive of whatever we choose to do! Maybe not enthusiastically in favor of it but supportive of the fact of it being a choice we made! A+ dadding.

Give dad a hug!

Alright, time for a little philosophical sell. Let's go inside while we talk.

>perhaps the empire shouldn't dismiss such feelings and activities as shameful and obscene.

Well, I definitely think so! I mean, if there's that element of "base biological urges overpowering reason and free will", then yeah, I can kind of see that. But, there are lots of other things that do that, like hunger and fear and the response to cute things, that all come from instinctive biological urges as well, and they aren't looked down on. Ancient organics might have had an idea of sex as dangerous due to things like pregnancy and diseases and breaking up political unions, and that's all sensible in primitive days, but the empire should be beyond all of that, now! The idea that sex is just a weakness, that it's some primal animal thing that controls you, that doesn't seem to fit, to me. Like, have you seen how animals mate? Most of them, it's five seconds, fertilization, that's it. The intelligent, social species, though, they developed long mating sessions, and oversized sexual attributes, and why? It helped form emotional and communal bonds, helped people get to know each other and trust each other, and reinforced society. It helped people care about each other! And that's why, even as a jetal who has no native sex drive... I decided to try sex, and I liked it. Because there's a lot you can get out of it! It can be just raw pleasure, of course, but there's tons of more sophisticated stuff to get out of it. It can be about friendship and affection and intimacy, to show trust and humility, to see a side of people they don't show in any other way, to explore sensation and study psychology, for the thrills of power and dominance and competition without having to hurt anyone - the opposite, in fact! And I'm sure there's a bunch of stuff that makes it valuable and fascinating that I haven't seen yet! So I'm kind of sad that's it seen as just empty physical satisfaction because if you treat it like that's all it is then that's what it becomes.

As for the empire, well, I'm not that old and of course I don't have much experience, but it seems like the empire's attitude to sex is a symptom of something that causes a lot of other problems. Like... elitism, and paranoia, and stress all the time, and just a lot of callousness. Like, the idea of becoming asexual as you "ascend" up the ranks. If you're just naturally that way then sure that's fine, but the idea that you should choose to be that way, that there's some ideal of sexlessness, that's bad. It's like... rejecting the rest of society as being beneath you, that you're too pure and important to sully yourself with the most intimate entanglement with another person there is. And being male or female, or both, is sort of like... an implicit statement of humility? Like, you're admitting that there's things you can't do on your own, that you need other people for. Belenosian aristocracy seems to have some ideal of chasing perfection, and eliminating all flaws, and that's fine but you can't ever pretend you're flawless, because no being smaller than the universe ever could be. Even if you're a robot or a jetal, your body and your mind are still descended from organics, you'll always have a bit of them in you. Denying that old primal stuff, trying to ignore it or shut it out completely, well, it's definitely not good for individuals, and it's not good for a society either. Keeping a form that reminds you of that sort of thing, that it'll always be there and you should accept it and deal with it gracefully as a part of what you are, it's a good idea. I think. That's probably why I took to calling you my dad so soon. It's a really complicated sort of relationship, with all sorts of messy, primal emotional organic connotations, both overt and subtle... and I wanted to embrace that sort of thing. It's an experience I want to have. And, well, obviously I don't plan to get super intimate with everyone I meet, but I want other messy complicated emotional experiences as well.

Also... I really just like making people feel good! And it's fun!

So, yes, dad. I like this kind of stuff and I think I'm going to do a lot of it. In fact, I've been kind of daydreaming about becoming some sort of social revolutionary and overturning the empire's attitude to sexuality. But, uh, well, I'm sure if it's possible for anyone then it's possible for someone you made, but it'd take a while, anyway. There are other ideas I've had for what to do. I've still got a lot to learn.

Um... so, what do you think?

It's not all been appealing to base desires for it's own sake, although there's been some of that as well. I've made contacts in two crime syndicates after infiltrating a rival's party, and then took down a 1mil bounty unarmed.

It's a means to ends as well as fun. Even if the drive isn't there by default it can still be developed, as a couple of Jetals I met tonight showed, and that can be exploited if necessary.

We may have to tell Loviro that we're a multiplicity, since he may be curious how we could crank up the feedback to knock out levels. We should also mention the core scan, as that could potentially be very bad.

We should change clothes, now, in any case. Loviro will probably be more comfortable, even if we persuade him about our attitude. It takes time for feelings like that to fade!

Speaking of, here's a few outfits. Not necessarily intended for switching into right now, just putting them out as potentially part of the wardrobe for later purposes.

"That's wonderful of you to say that, but it also just felt nice and fun and isn't just for base desires. There's also more biological elements than just that, though, there's also hunger, fear responding to cute things, and those aren't look down upon, right?" Alison asks, while stepping inside.
>"Yes, as those are responses to concepts that aren't 'weeded out', or so the empire would like to put it."
"There was also a certain amount of companionship. I don't really understand it yet, but sex has a lot more for it than just physical stimulation. I think that people wanted the companionship more than the feeling, and the feeling was just the means to the end, but somehow sex just got seen as entirely physical pleasure. And that's a shame, because it seems like doing it much at all will numb the sensation entirely, at least for jetals. And if asexuality is seen as an ideal, then maybe people who choose to be asexual while ascending the ranks might be rejecting the rest of society, with those feelings, as being underneath them."
>"There are other manners of affection than sex."
"I know! But I don't see what makes sex so different, so if people push sex away, maybe it's a symptom of something that causes a lot of other problems like elitism and callousness?"
>"If they don't have outlets to make up for sex, then you do bring up a good point. I expect you did not have any dealings with nobles, and I hope you do not have to, because 'calloused elitists' are an excellent describer of most."
"I didn't deal with any, but I did deal with bodyguards."
>"Really? How were they?"
".... jerks."

He smiles hesitantly.

>"What were you doing with people like those?"
"I took down a one million bounty while unarmed, mostly with sex. I'm not sure, but maybe they weren't happy about that."
>"... that is impressive, and I doubt they're ever happy with anything. Also, dangerous. Nonetheless, you are thinking, and that's good, so continue taking evidence and forming hypothesis based on that. We can speak more of your thoughts, but I would also like to hear what you've been up to since leaving."
"Would you like to get breakfast?"
>"I just ate, but you should get re-energized. You appear at half battery."
"How can you tell? Do you have a scanner in your head?"
>"Haha, no. Age hasn't beaten my eyes yet, and scanners are overrated when you know what to look for."
"I'm only a day old!"
>"Yes, you should get good scanners."
"I can tell you're a little uncomfortable." Unity says, scanning his body language. Scanner also notes a thought inhibitor implant in his brain. "It's my outfit?"
>"Irrelevant associations that betray the more logical parts of my head."
"I'll still change it."
>"Thank you. Lets plug you in, and hear about your stories."

Unity will cover nearly everything, but while talking about the sex module feedback, she'll be stepping by the topic about how she's a CAI, and that's stepping on the topic about how none of this is all that real.

No need to bother him with the Cai/contest stuff for now. Lets just enjoy the moment. Until he wants to take that thing out of his head at least.

We should ask about it though.

Learn more about dad and how he made you and your sister. And why he has a chip in his head.

>Unity will cover nearly everything, but while talking about the sex module feedback, she'll be stepping by the topic about how she's a CAI, and that's stepping on the topic about how none of this is all that real.
Yes, it's bad enough he had to deal with his 1-day old jetal daughter turning stripper / hooker. We can only dump so much on his plate at once.

Be sure to ask about how jetal feedback works (since you seem to be good at exploiting it), and see if he can tell you anything about that scan you were subjected to (what might they have got from it?). Ask about tagged modules too, if there's a way around tags, he might know, and we might have an opportunity to rip some off in the future.

Ask how Vinyl is doing, near the end.

>change outfit

Unity ends up on the battery recharger, telling Loviro about her night. She glosses over the feedback loop details and just says her hacked module allowed for overwhelming others. This is accomplished easily, as while Loviro is curious, he did not care to hear more about the details of Unity's sex life.

"What is a tagged module, by the way?"
>"Specifically authorized companies that create modules can, if they wish, generate it with a tag. Typically it's used to track it, but sometimes it has a remote control to deactivate or activate it. It could also be used to send feedback about the jetal itself. Energy usage, what else is being used simultaneously, and so on. Ultimately, it means that it's a non-stock module, and considering how closely guarded module integrity and standards are enforced, tagged modules are unusual to come by. Typically only modules created by R&D places have them."
"What about shops renting out modules?"
>"Tags are not used for that."
"Oh. I see. Oh, how about when I was core scanned when I got spiked?"
>"It's unnerving that that happened so soon, but if it was as fast as it seemed, then it wouldn't have revealed anything more about your core than a higher grade scanner would reveal. I imagined they were just afraid you had a secret set of high powered modules that outranked their scanners, and they wanted to bypass it. If you did not see their images inside of your core, then they wouldn't find anything direct."
"Oh, and any word on my sister?"
>"Eh? I'm sorry, I don't know where any of your siblings are at the moment. I don't have the means to track them."
"It's okay. How does feedback work anyway, in the way I mentioned?"
>"I can't say more than what you've learned about it. There exists, out there, complete overrides for jetals, and minor reflections of feelings, and everything inbetween. I haven't dealt with the hacks you've mentioned, so I could not say without taking a look at it with proper equipment. I am more about making jetal cores than modules, but I have made modules, in fact.... ah. Nevermind." Alison notices the implants went off.
"What are those implants you got?"
>"My thoughts are being watched, somehow. If I think something, I will trigger some kind of attention that I don't want. Unfortunately, the detailed answer to that question is the very thing my implants, and Vinyl's for that matter, aims to prevent. I may ask for your assistance regarding it later, but not yet."
"How is Vinyl, anyway?"
>"She left a short time ago, to where, I do not know."
"And how did you make me and my siblings?"

Loviro starts explaining some details, but trails off into some old memories of his. It takes awhile to recharge her batteries, so Unity listens in to it. Although many lobbyists take interest in it, it doesn't appear to be anything other than the jetal creating industry from fake decades ago. There's nothing in the details that give many hints as to where Sevener and the other administrators are, at the time, so Unity will just have to keep on gathering resources and keeping an eye out.
