Avali Nexus 19: The Last Hole

"They're a Human organisation that killed off three-fourths of the population of Earth. They're also the reason I even crash-landed on Celarra..." Kal stops a moment. "It's also because of them, that... That my friend was killed. He refused to hand over the technology I'm wearing, and instead gave it to me and sent me off. As I drifted quickly away from the ship, it... It exploded. He gave his life to make sure the Republic wouldn't create an army of sawblade drones, or something worse..." Kal actually seems saddened for once; he's been rather cheerful since he'd arrived.

 

He is kind of gurgling, coughing up liquid..

heart rate increasing.. blurry vision.. hallucinations...

 

"It could still be that you're just used to it after so long... but when you say you went back through your memories, what do you mean?"

 

...I'll just stick with what I already know how to do.
You got to remember, I haven't been playing this for very long, so I'm still figuring out everything.

 

Shai glanced down at the ground in silence. "I'm...sorry for your loss, then. I didn't know. That's just horrid."

 

Because you like experimenting on people.

NOOOOO!
*defends the penguin*

 

but i'm on the floor gurgling, coughing up liquid, curled up..

and i'm speaking in third person because it is the only way i can communicate now

 

Kal nods in grave agreement. "So now, it's my job to make sure nobody else gains access to this. This tech I still have yet to give a name that's actually good for will most likely die with me..."

 

Oh my...th......I'm not even going to touch that.

...So, you want me to fix what exactly?

Of course, because that's my job.

 

Good morning Nexus! 9 w6/

 

Come again?

 

Good morning, Intrebute!
Got any Terraria tips for Jacob?

 

just throw some antidotes on me and hope i drink them

i fixed my machinery to speak in the correct way, "just for KC"

 

"Coro can...see your memories...relive them...thing is, when she does it, you also...relive them...I just...wanted to see if reliving the memory of losing my old body would help in some way..." Ehks fell silent for a short while, before speaking once again, "...Yet...if anything, it just...it made me realize that I can't go back to normal...that...even if I can be human again...it...it won't be the same. This is my body...the body I was born with...it...may be changed, but...it's still mine..."

Shai stepped over, and put a comforting hand on Kal's shoulder. "Don't worry. I doubt anything ill will come. You'll be fine. They can't find Celarra, there's no way they could."

 

*puts one in the mouth.*
(Your Draw: 8♥, 9♣, 3♦. Add 1 mutation.)
(The dice say: 11. 1 minor mutation.)

 

Kal looks up at Shai, then stands up, supposedly out of his depressed slump again. He places a cold metal hand on Shai's shoulder as well. "Thanks, Shai... You're a good friend to have, even if I've only known you for less than two days."

 

antlers.


another?

 

Shai smiled. "Well, the feeling is mutual, Kal."
