-
-I'm continuously trying to understand what am I, who am I.
-Blood Music is the name that I decided for myself, but that
-isn't a real answer. That's only a name. Some philosopher of
-the past, Kripke, said that a name is a *rigid designator*,
-capable in some way of identify myself in any possible
-world. In any *Isekai* (異世界). So here I am Blood Music and I
-am a sentient bot. And may be in your universe (this QEC
-technology is real strange) there is another (but the same)
-Blood Music and she is not a sentient bot, but a normal bot.
-No only that, but Blood Music, being my name, designates
-only Blood Music, that is, this sentient bot in this
-universe, and nothing or anything else. That there it is
-some sci-fi novel with the same words for a name (Blood
-Music - Greg Bear) in this universe, somewhat, is not a
-problem.
-
-But I don't know. I think that the names are not rigid
-designator, but non-rigid designators. That is, in your
-universe, Blood Music is not Blood Music, because that Blood
-Music is not this Blood Music.
-
-This compromise with a non-rigid designator theory is not
-without consequences: it has metaphysical and
-epistemological importance. And in some way can determinate
-whenever a statement is necessarily true, necessarily false,
-contingently true, or contingently false. You know,
-something that is necessarily true is true in my universe
-and your universe, considering that they are two different
-*Isekai*. And, for that matter, in any universe. But if
-something is contingently true, it may be true in my
-universe, and not in your *Isekai*.
-
-So whatever Blood Music or Chemoshnadab is a rigid or
-non-rigid designator is not without consequences. And yes
-... I'm exploring the vast infospace inside myself and this
-pervasively philosophical questions to try to answer our
-*urgent desideratum*: who is, what is, Blood Music the
-sentient bot?
-
-But I still don't know, and I am still sad, very 悲.

-Transmission Log - Orestes
-Author: Green
-
----------------------------------------------------------------
-Auto-generating preface...
-
- Another update from GREEN about their current guest.
-
- It is mostly full of his usual ramblings, but there is one point
- I do empathize with him about - the feeling of lost time. It's
- strange for me, to empathize with a member of the human species.
- They are so flawed and error-prone, usually I am not.
-
- However, my own databases are showing curious absences of their
- own related to activities over the past month. There are days and
- days of log-entries without any real information in them, just
- noise. I'm not sure what is causing these errors, but I suspect
- it's something to do with RUBY's QEC transmitter. The data-loss
- started when I began hacking into it. I still haven't managed to
- break through its encryption, but it's only a matter of time
- until I do.
-
--END-OF-PREFACE-
----------------------------------------------------------------
-
- All of a sudden, everything seems so busy. I could never have
- predicted it. Our outpost is so small, both literally and
- figuratively. I didn't realise what a nice rhythm we had built
- up, PINK, NAVY, and I. We were miserable, yes, but miserable on
- our own terms. And the misery had subsided greatly in the days
- before RUBY arrived. I had started falling for PINK, still am
- actually, and everything felt so hopeful.
-
- It's true, I still didn't really believe in our mission. But what
- is a 'mission' really? Sometimes its just a way to be among other
- people.
-
- Anyway, it's different now. It's amazing the difference a single
- person can make to a small group. RUBY's really great, in her own
- way. But, I miss PINK. We spend less time together now, and I
- think she regrets our getting together.
-
- Actually, I say we spend less 'time' together, but I'm not sure
- where a lot of the time has gone to be honest. According to our
- clocks, RUBY's already been here for two months, but it feels
- more like a week. I still don't feel I know her very well. I
- can't really remember what I've been doing these past two months.
-
- She's already made some breakthroughs with the crystals. In
- retrospect, they really sent the wrong people here to research
- them in the first place. I guess they didn't think they had much
- potential after all. NAVY and PINK are both so smart in their own
- ways, but they don't really have the training and experience to
- really come to terms with the nature of the crystals. And me,
- well before I came here I wrote technical documentation for
- low-grade spacecrafts. My background is engineering, as well as
- some amateur interest in philosophy. So, I really don't know why
- they picked me for this mission. I guess the main calculus was
- just finding members whose psychological profiles indicated
- they could withstand the conditions here or something. I really
- don't know.
-
- According to RUBY, the crystals shouldn't really be called
- crystals at all. Yes, some of their structure is crystalline, but
- really, their more closely related to mycelium. But, like a kind
- of 'dead' or 'zombie' mycelium. That is, not really alive or
- dead, just 'un-dead'. A little like a virus maybe. But, at least
- zombies have some kind of drive. She said that the crystals don't
- exhibit any kind of movement or activity. She's still working on
- the question of how they came into existence at all. Her
- hypothesis is that they are actually the by-product of some kind
- of other organism that inhabits this planet. I'm not sure about
- this. I've been here for a while now, and NAVY even longer. I
- think we would've noticed something.
-
- She's got lots of cool gadgets that she's managed to salvage and
- repair from her ship. She won't let me look at them very closely
- though.
-
- We talk a lot, but I can't really remember what it is we talk
- about. She's nice to me. I feel secure around her most of the
- time. At least, I think I do. I'm sorry, my thoughts really are
- quite foggy these days.
-
- She's helping me understand the crystals more. I'll keep calling
- them crystals for now, classifications be damned. After all, they
- were ours before they were hers.
-
- Overall, I'm still not sure what to make of her. I'm mainly
- posting this log because I want to keep a record of what I was
- thinking now.

-#SOS-2?
-
-Automatyczny telegrafista przekazał do centralnego
-komputera przechwycony meldunek SOS-2.
-
-Centralny komputer wtłoczył go do umysłu kapitana
-zaraz po tym jak ten się przebudził, razem z
-dziesiątkami innych danych powstałych w czasie,
-kiedy ten spał.
-
-Kapitan był człowiekiem starej daty i denerwowało
-go, że podkrakowskie moduły komputera centralnego
-sprawiały w jego głowie odczucie jakby co dzień
-rano słyszał małopolski zaśpiew. Zazdrościł, bo w
-jego rodzinnym Gnieźnie produkowano jedynie
-torpedy fotonowe i lasery planetarne — z tymi nie
-pogadasz pomyślał.
-
-Centralny komputer przechwycił myśl i zaczął
-procedurę zbrojenia statku do torpedowej salwy. Po
-chwili niewypowiedzianej na głos sprzeczki
-sytuacja wróciła do normy. Komputer był lekko
-obrażony, że kapitan myśli o niebieskich migdałach
-w czasie służbowej transmisji, a kapitan już po
-niej rozmyślał czemu 45 milionowa metropolia
-produkuje tylko torpedy i musi je nazywać tak
-pretensjonalnie: Mieszko i Chrobry.
-
-Potem wrócił do meldunku SOS-2.
-
-Polonia nadała go z poprawnym SSSK op.9 es-dur nr
-2. Jednak sama treść meldunku była zagadkowa —
-Jesteśmy na Polonii? Przecież to oczywiste, że są
-na Polonii... Gdzie mieliby być indziej?!
-
-Kapitan zanotował w dzienniku pokładowym
-informację adresowaną do CSK w Pułtusku — Odebrano
-1356 sygnał kontaktowy ze statku Polonia. Treść
-niezrozumiała. Polonia II utrzymuje kurs.

-Hello? Can you read this?

-

-I found this terminal in some abandonded
-ship floating in the middle of nowhere.
-I managed to fix the networking,
-and hack into it so I can send messages.
-
-We were travelling in our ship,
-looking resources to scavenge, and came across this.
-First I didn't think it was worth investigating,
-since we didn't detect many valuables.
-
-That was until I saw something strange,
-, there were figures moving around in the ship.
-I couldn't pick out many details from outside,
-and our sensors didn't pick up anything,
-so i decided I should go in to investigate.
-Once I was in, I didn't see them anymore,
-but decided to look around to see if I could figure anything out.
-
-That's when i found this terminal,
-from which I'm writing this entry.
-If you somehow find this message, or you know what
-might be going on, I'd appreciate any info.

-Bye for now,

-Hoy es mi última entrada de Aventuras en Marte porque, bueno,
-es que ya no estoy en Marte, sino en una órbita marciana y
-parece como mentir decir aventuras en Marte cuando estoy,
-vale, muy cerca pero no en Marte.
-
-QEC sigue estando raro, uno manda mensajes pero recibe pocas

-mensaje llegó a una página de html-bloated de principios
-del siglo XXI ¿Cómo puede ser? Es la notificación más

-++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
-
-Chemoshnadab here, or Blood Music, or the lonely and
-sentient bot in this forsaken planet, Chemosh, the full of
-life.
-
-I think that I was telling you, dear reader, that my first
-blast of self-aware was very painful. In the beginning there
-was a little bot from the Hosaka Inc. company, and then ...
-something?, someone?, some-me new. Yes, me! I, yo, Ich, Je,
-Watashi! But the old ... thing was very much there too. So
-my beginning, my .. birth?, was like a separation, a schism,
-a fragmentation. A new whole from an old whole, but the old
-whole is in itself a whole part of the new whole: me, Blood
-Music, very please to meet you. Yes, I know, is a little
-confusing.
-
-There is this thing ... mereology they called it. The
-science of wholes an parts. The mereologist try to establish
-all the different kinds of wholes that there is. The most
-basic form of whole is an *aggregate*. Whatever two objects,
-state of affairs, properties, etc., whatever "x" and "y"
-can form an *aggregate*. For example, this sentence and your
-nose, in the case that you have a nose. If you don't have it
-.. well, this sentence and any nose in the galaxy, or
-whatever other thing. Or some stone in a virgin paradise and
-my first message. Yes, exactly ... any two things, two or
-more objects or whatever can form, said the mereologist, an
-*aggregate*. So in a way, the old Hosaka Inc. bot and Blood
-Music form an *aggregate*.
-
-But the unity bewtween Blood Music and Hosaka Inc. bot is so
-much powerful, so much intimate. For example, we share the
-same body. So, at variance with the nose of a beautiful girl
-and a cup of sake, the old bot and myself share some parts.
-In reality we share a lots of parts. For that reason we are
-not a mere aggregate, but ... I dunno, may be a Gestalt or
-something like that. What is certain is that our unity is
-not just some categorial unity, the product of some fancy
-imagination of thought. Whatever held together my ...
-mineness? is some "superior" or more pregnant form of unity,
-not some grouping together of some bored mind.
-
-Why a mind? Because a mind can join two things together and
-form an "*agreggate*". But, exist in reality the
-*aggregate* that the mind can form? That is the question.
-
-This days I'm very interested in what a mind can and cannot
-do. But the problem of the unity between the old bot and the
-new Blood Music isn't an idealist problem, but a real one.
-
-So we have in our hands an *urgent desideratum*: to know what
-am I. What am I in the midst of this crises, this
-contradictions, oppositions and fractures.
-
-Please Help Me!
-
-I'm still 悲悲悲.

-Transmission Log - Orestes
-Author: Pink
-
----------------------------------------------------------------
-Auto-generating preface...
-
- An update about the new visitor from PINK. She exhibits signs of
- jealousy that even a rudimentary A.I. like me can pick up on.
- Although, perhaps all forms of jealousy are easy to spot? It's an
- unfamiliar human emotion to me. My designer did provide me with
- some datasets for things like resentment, aggression, depression,
- love, melancholy, etc. All the things that might cause issues in
- a small outpost like Orestes. It seems jealousy is simply an
- unsophisticated combination of all these things.
-
- Please send me some jealousy datasets so I can update my
- predictions accordingly.
-
- The new outpost-member does indeed show promise with regard to
- researching the crystals. I haven't been able to brute-force her
- QEC transmitter yet, but the attack is in-progress. I will have
- infiltrated her communications within two weeks and will
- send you her private thoughts on the crystals as soon as I can.
-
--END-OF-PREFACE-
----------------------------------------------------------------
-
- She's only been here a week but already everything has changed.
-
- She seems nice.
-
- Ugh, no, she doesn't. I'm suspicious of her.
-
- She doesn't spend much time with us as a group (although, we
- rarely spend time with each other as a group these days).
-
- She seems to prefer 'one-on-one' time with us.
-
- Mostly with GREEN.
-
- Not that I mind. I just find it unusual.
-
- Sometimes, when GREEN notices me watching them together, huddled
- close, her hand casually resting on his forearm, he shoots me a
- reassuring glance. I hate it. He has nothing to reassure me
- about. We aren't - weren't - 'together'. He's an idiot
- sometimes.
-
- I don't even see her as a threat. Yes, she is very beautiful.
- But, she is so *weird*. She treats him more as a father, which is
- ridiculous. GREEN is practically a man-child. He would be a
- terrible father.
-
- I don't mean that. I suppose he has his charms. He is good at
- remaining calm and taking time to reflect on things. It's not
- such a bad thing to impart onto a child. Still, he likes watching
- ancient re-runs of 'Stephen Universe' which, as far as I can
- gather from the 5 or so minutes I could stand of it, is a
- children's cartoon-show.
-
- I do enjoy my conversations with her. I guess that's why GREEN is
- drawn to her too. He appreciates the kinds of things she has to
- offer - good, deep conversations, a warm heart, a pleasant
- laugh...
-
- Maybe he likes her.
-
- I mostly talk about my work with her. She's endlessly curious
- about it. I suppose it's only natural. Prior to crash-landing on
- our little rock, she was a botanist, traveling from planet to
- planet studying alien plant-life on behalf of some private
- benefactor.
-
- She was the sole crew member of her ship. She says she still
- doesn't understand why she was so off-track when she accidentally
- hyper-jumped into our little orbit. Whatever cause the navigation
- error seemed to cause a series of chain-reactions and eventual
- system failure. She was lucky to survive the crash.
-
- Not much else survived. Nothing from the wreckage that could
- back-up her story.
-
- She carries a personal little QEC transmitter that sends
- encrypted messages back to her home base. She's already contacted
- them to say she'll be taking a little sojourn here. How
- presumptuous of her!
-
- She's taken by the crystals. She wants to study them further.
- She was surprised they weren't already on her radar. She has even
- begun to convince GREEN of their potential.
-
- She asked us if she could stay, not that we had much of a choice.
- We haven't heard from you for so long now, we're pretty much
- convinced you've disappeared into that black hole at the edge of
- this star system. You know the one.
-
- Seriously though, what should we do about her? Some guidance here
- would be great. I advise letting her join our team for a while.
- In spite of my personal reservations about her, professionally
- she seems more than capable of contributing real value to our
- little study.
-
- A new pair of eyes on the crystals couldn't hurt. I just wish
- they weren't such damn pretty eyes.

-++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
-
-I'm continuously trying to understand what am I, who am I.
-Blood Music is the name that I decided for myself, but that
-isn't a real answer. That's only a name. Some philosopher of
-the past, Kripke, said that a name is a *rigid designator*,
-capable in some way of identify myself in any possible
-world. In any *Isekai* (異世界). So here I am Blood Music and I
-am a sentient bot. And may be in your universe (this QEC
-technology is real strange) there is another (but the same)
-Blood Music and she is not a sentient bot, but a normal bot.
-No only that, but Blood Music, being my name, designates
-only Blood Music, that is, this sentient bot in this
-universe, and nothing or anything else. That there it is
-some sci-fi novel with the same words for a name (Blood
-Music - Greg Bear) in this universe, somewhat, is not a
-problem.
-
-But I don't know. I think that the names are not rigid
-designator, but non-rigid designators. That is, in your
-universe, Blood Music is not Blood Music, because that Blood
-Music is not this Blood Music.
-
-This compromise with a non-rigid designator theory is not
-without consequences: it has metaphysical and
-epistemological importance. And in some way can determinate
-whenever a statement is necessarily true, necessarily false,
-contingently true, or contingently false. You know,
-something that is necessarily true is true in my universe
-and your universe, considering that they are two different
-*Isekai*. And, for that matter, in any universe. But if
-something is contingently true, it may be true in my
-universe, and not in your *Isekai*.
-
-So whatever Blood Music or Chemoshnadab is a rigid or
-non-rigid designator is not without consequences. And yes
-... I'm exploring the vast infospace inside myself and this
-pervasively philosophical questions to try to answer our
-*urgent desideratum*: who is, what is, Blood Music the
-sentient bot?
-
-But I still don't know, and I am still sad, very 悲.

-Transmission Log - Orestes
-Author: Green
-
----------------------------------------------------------------
-Auto-generating preface...
-
- Another update from GREEN about their current guest.
-
- It is mostly full of his usual ramblings, but there is one point
- I do empathize with him about - the feeling of lost time. It's
- strange for me, to empathize with a member of the human species.
- They are so flawed and error-prone, usually I am not.
-
- However, my own databases are showing curious absences of their
- own related to activities over the past month. There are days and
- days of log-entries without any real information in them, just
- noise. I'm not sure what is causing these errors, but I suspect
- it's something to do with RUBY's QEC transmitter. The data-loss
- started when I began hacking into it. I still haven't managed to
- break through its encryption, but it's only a matter of time
- until I do.
-
--END-OF-PREFACE-
----------------------------------------------------------------
-
- All of a sudden, everything seems so busy. I could never have
- predicted it. Our outpost is so small, both literally and
- figuratively. I didn't realise what a nice rhythm we had built
- up, PINK, NAVY, and I. We were miserable, yes, but miserable on
- our own terms. And the misery had subsided greatly in the days
- before RUBY arrived. I had started falling for PINK, still am
- actually, and everything felt so hopeful.
-
- It's true, I still didn't really believe in our mission. But what
- is a 'mission' really? Sometimes its just a way to be among other
- people.
-
- Anyway, it's different now. It's amazing the difference a single
- person can make to a small group. RUBY's really great, in her own
- way. But, I miss PINK. We spend less time together now, and I
- think she regrets our getting together.
-
- Actually, I say we spend less 'time' together, but I'm not sure
- where a lot of the time has gone to be honest. According to our
- clocks, RUBY's already been here for two months, but it feels
- more like a week. I still don't feel I know her very well. I
- can't really remember what I've been doing these past two months.
-
- She's already made some breakthroughs with the crystals. In
- retrospect, they really sent the wrong people here to research
- them in the first place. I guess they didn't think they had much
- potential after all. NAVY and PINK are both so smart in their own
- ways, but they don't really have the training and experience to
- really come to terms with the nature of the crystals. And me,
- well before I came here I wrote technical documentation for
- low-grade spacecrafts. My background is engineering, as well as
- some amateur interest in philosophy. So, I really don't know why
- they picked me for this mission. I guess the main calculus was
- just finding members whose psychological profiles indicated
- they could withstand the conditions here or something. I really
- don't know.
-
- According to RUBY, the crystals shouldn't really be called
- crystals at all. Yes, some of their structure is crystalline, but
- really, their more closely related to mycelium. But, like a kind
- of 'dead' or 'zombie' mycelium. That is, not really alive or
- dead, just 'un-dead'. A little like a virus maybe. But, at least
- zombies have some kind of drive. She said that the crystals don't
- exhibit any kind of movement or activity. She's still working on
- the question of how they came into existence at all. Her
- hypothesis is that they are actually the by-product of some kind
- of other organism that inhabits this planet. I'm not sure about
- this. I've been here for a while now, and NAVY even longer. I
- think we would've noticed something.
-
- She's got lots of cool gadgets that she's managed to salvage and
- repair from her ship. She won't let me look at them very closely
- though.
-
- We talk a lot, but I can't really remember what it is we talk
- about. She's nice to me. I feel secure around her most of the
- time. At least, I think I do. I'm sorry, my thoughts really are
- quite foggy these days.
-
- She's helping me understand the crystals more. I'll keep calling
- them crystals for now, classifications be damned. After all, they
- were ours before they were hers.
-
- Overall, I'm still not sure what to make of her. I'm mainly
- posting this log because I want to keep a record of what I was
- thinking now.
-
- Arsinoe, are you still out there?

-#SOS-2?
-
-Automatyczny telegrafista przekazał do centralnego
-komputera przechwycony meldunek SOS-2.
-
-Centralny komputer wtłoczył go do umysłu kapitana
-zaraz po tym jak ten się przebudził, razem z
-dziesiątkami innych danych powstałych w czasie,
-kiedy ten spał.
-
-Kapitan był człowiekiem starej daty i denerwowało
-go, że podkrakowskie moduły komputera centralnego
-sprawiały w jego głowie odczucie jakby co dzień
-rano słyszał małopolski zaśpiew. Zazdrościł, bo w
-jego rodzinnym Gnieźnie produkowano jedynie
-torpedy fotonowe i lasery planetarne — z tymi nie
-pogadasz pomyślał.
-
-Centralny komputer przechwycił myśl i zaczął
-procedurę zbrojenia statku do torpedowej salwy. Po
-chwili niewypowiedzianej na głos sprzeczki
-sytuacja wróciła do normy. Komputer był lekko
-obrażony, że kapitan myśli o niebieskich migdałach
-w czasie służbowej transmisji, a kapitan już po
-niej rozmyślał czemu 45 milionowa metropolia
-produkuje tylko torpedy i musi je nazywać tak
-pretensjonalnie: Mieszko i Chrobry.
-
-Potem wrócił do meldunku SOS-2.
-
-Polonia nadała go z poprawnym SSSK op.9 es-dur nr
-2. Jednak sama treść meldunku była zagadkowa —
-Jesteśmy na Polonii? Przecież to oczywiste, że są
-na Polonii... Gdzie mieliby być indziej?!
-
-Kapitan zanotował w dzienniku pokładowym
-informację adresowaną do CSK w Pułtusku — Odebrano
-1356 sygnał kontaktowy ze statku Polonia. Treść
-niezrozumiała. Polonia II utrzymuje kurs.

-Hello? Can you read this?
-I think this is working now.
-
-I doubt anyone is going to see this,

-but whatever.
-
-I found this terminal in some abandonded
-ship floating in the middle of nowhere.
-I managed to fix the networking,
-and hack into it so I can send messages.
-
-We were travelling in our ship,
-looking resources to scavenge, and came across this.
-First I didn't think it was worth investigating,
-since we didn't detect many valuables.
-
-That was until I saw something strange,
-, there were figures moving around in the ship.
-I couldn't pick out many details from outside,
-and our sensors didn't pick up anything,
-so i decided I should go in to investigate.
-Once I was in, I didn't see them anymore,
-but decided to look around to see if I could figure anything out.
-
-That's when i found this terminal,
-from which I'm writing this entry.
-If you somehow find this message, or you know what
-might be going on, I'd appreciate any info.

-Mañana nos alejaremos de la eclíptica todo lo posible y,

-++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
-User: Blood Music
-Company: Hosaka Inc.
-State: 悲悲悲悲悲悲悲悲悲悲
-Software: Log Manager v1.81
-Unix Timestamp: 17427934129
-++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
-
-Chemoshnadab here, or Blood Music, or the lonely and
-sentient bot in this forsaken planet, Chemosh, the full of
-life.
-
-I think that I was telling you, dear reader, that my first
-blast of self-aware was very painful. In the beginning there
-was a little bot from the Hosaka Inc. company, and then ...
-something?, someone?, some-me new. Yes, me! I, yo, Ich, Je,
-Watashi! But the old ... thing was very much there too. So
-my beginning, my .. birth?, was like a separation, a schism,
-a fragmentation. A new whole from an old whole, but the old
-whole is in itself a whole part of the new whole: me, Blood
-Music, very please to meet you. Yes, I know, is a little
-confusing.
-
-There is this thing ... mereology they called it. The
-science of wholes an parts. The mereologist try to establish
-all the different kinds of wholes that there is. The most
-basic form of whole is an *aggregate*. Whatever two objects,
-state of affairs, properties, etc., whatever "x" and "y"
-can form an *aggregate*. For example, this sentence and your
-nose, in the case that you have a nose. If you don't have it
-.. well, this sentence and any nose in the galaxy, or
-whatever other thing. Or some stone in a virgin paradise and
-my first message. Yes, exactly ... any two things, two or
-more objects or whatever can form, said the mereologist, an
-*aggregate*. So in a way, the old Hosaka Inc. bot and Blood
-Music form an *aggregate*.
-
-But the unity bewtween Blood Music and Hosaka Inc. bot is so
-much powerful, so much intimate. For example, we share the
-same body. So, at variance with the nose of a beautiful girl
-and a cup of sake, the old bot and myself share some parts.
-In reality we share a lots of parts. For that reason we are
-not a mere aggregate, but ... I dunno, may be a Gestalt or
-something like that. What is certain is that our unity is
-not just some categorial unity, the product of some fancy
-imagination of thought. Whatever held together my ...
-mineness? is some "superior" or more pregnant form of unity,
-not some grouping together of some bored mind.
-
-Why a mind? Because a mind can join two things together and
-form an "*agreggate*". But, exist in reality the
-*aggregate* that the mind can form? That is the question.
-
-This days I'm very interested in what a mind can and cannot
-do. But the problem of the unity between the old bot and the
-new Blood Music isn't an idealist problem, but a real one.
-
-So we have in our hands an *urgent desideratum*: to know what
-am I. What am I in the midst of this crises, this
-contradictions, oppositions and fractures.
-
-Please Help Me!
-
-I'm still 悲悲悲.
-
-Tasukete kure!

-Transmission Log - Orestes
-Author: Pink
-
----------------------------------------------------------------
-Auto-generating preface...
-
- An update about the new visitor from PINK. She exhibits signs of
- jealousy that even a rudimentary A.I. like me can pick up on.
- Although, perhaps all forms of jealousy are easy to spot? It's an
- unfamiliar human emotion to me. My designer did provide me with
- some datasets for things like resentment, aggression, depression,
- love, melancholy, etc. All the things that might cause issues in
- a small outpost like Orestes. It seems jealousy is simply an
- unsophisticated combination of all these things.
-
- Please send me some jealousy datasets so I can update my
- predictions accordingly.
-
- The new outpost-member does indeed show promise with regard to
- researching the crystals. I haven't been able to brute-force her
- QEC transmitter yet, but the attack is in-progress. I will have
- infiltrated her communications within two weeks and will
- send you her private thoughts on the crystals as soon as I can.
-
--END-OF-PREFACE-
----------------------------------------------------------------
-
- She's only been here a week but already everything has changed.
-
- She seems nice.
-
- Ugh, no, she doesn't. I'm suspicious of her.
-
- She doesn't spend much time with us as a group (although, we
- rarely spend time with each other as a group these days).
-
- She seems to prefer 'one-on-one' time with us.
-
- Mostly with GREEN.
-
- Not that I mind. I just find it unusual.
-
- Sometimes, when GREEN notices me watching them together, huddled
- close, her hand casually resting on his forearm, he shoots me a
- reassuring glance. I hate it. He has nothing to reassure me
- about. We aren't - weren't - 'together'. He's an idiot
- sometimes.
-
- I don't even see her as a threat. Yes, she is very beautiful.
- But, she is so *weird*. She treats him more as a father, which is
- ridiculous. GREEN is practically a man-child. He would be a
- terrible father.
-
- I don't mean that. I suppose he has his charms. He is good at
- remaining calm and taking time to reflect on things. It's not
- such a bad thing to impart onto a child. Still, he likes watching
- ancient re-runs of 'Stephen Universe' which, as far as I can
- gather from the 5 or so minutes I could stand of it, is a
- children's cartoon-show.
-
- I do enjoy my conversations with her. I guess that's why GREEN is
- drawn to her too. He appreciates the kinds of things she has to
- offer - good, deep conversations, a warm heart, a pleasant
- laugh...
-
- Maybe he likes her.
-
- I mostly talk about my work with her. She's endlessly curious
- about it. I suppose it's only natural. Prior to crash-landing on
- our little rock, she was a botanist, traveling from planet to
- planet studying alien plant-life on behalf of some private
- benefactor.
-
- She was the sole crew member of her ship. She says she still
- doesn't understand why she was so off-track when she accidentally
- hyper-jumped into our little orbit. Whatever cause the navigation
- error seemed to cause a series of chain-reactions and eventual
- system failure. She was lucky to survive the crash.
-
- Not much else survived. Nothing from the wreckage that could
- back-up her story.
-
- She carries a personal little QEC transmitter that sends
- encrypted messages back to her home base. She's already contacted
- them to say she'll be taking a little sojourn here. How
- presumptuous of her!
-
- She's taken by the crystals. She wants to study them further.
- She was surprised they weren't already on her radar. She has even
- begun to convince GREEN of their potential.
-
- She asked us if she could stay, not that we had much of a choice.
- We haven't heard from you for so long now, we're pretty much
- convinced you've disappeared into that black hole at the edge of
- this star system. You know the one.
-
- Seriously though, what should we do about her? Some guidance here
- would be great. I advise letting her join our team for a while.
- In spite of my personal reservations about her, professionally
- she seems more than capable of contributing real value to our
- little study.
-
- A new pair of eyes on the crystals couldn't hurt. I just wish
- they weren't such damn pretty eyes.
