Attention, everyone! Stop whatever you're doing right now because this is 10x more important! Consider this a special PSA from Sheryl Nome.

Chocolates are supposed to be a symbol of love and commitment, right? That's what I always believed. Before arriving here, I learned they come in two forms:
a gift between two lovers, or romantic chocolate
a gift between two friends, or courtesy chocolate

But now I learned there is a third form: chocolate assigned to us for delivery by a group of the most unprofessional, incompetent idiots!

Recently I asked that same group of idiots a few questions about a certain incident. Why was there no warning labels on these chocolates? Why were the people who ate them suddenly the targets of these ugly monsters?

Do you want to know what they said? I'll summarize that for you in three words: "we didn't know."

????????

Who the hell do they think they're talking to?! I can't take this level of idiocy!

The repository for the system's data itself was the form of a person deemed best equipped to "protect", for example. That's the world I come from.

The world in which there were no such entities was the one I was brought to, after my own erasure.

[galactically]

i see

[Admittedly, Sheryl's eyes were starting to glaze over (all the technological mumbo-jumbo)... until the last part catches her off-guard in wording]

"after your own erasure"... is this how you describe your own death?

[cloak]

I'm one of the system entities I referred to, from my original world.

[Said ever so easily, but then he's never seen a point in concealing the facts]

[galactically]

[There's a delay in responding, and then:]

are you a cyborg??

[Sheryl pls]

[cloak]

Cyborgs aren't entities of pure data.

At least some part of them is human.

[galactically]

oh my... this is the first time i'm speaking to a program

a new experience from Sheryl Nome

[cloak]

It doesn't seem uncommon for me to be the first.

[galactically]

what can you do? i want to know your abilities!

can you upload music like an mp3 player?

[cloak]

What purpose would uploading music serve when something already does that?

[galactically]

you could be an instant hit at parties ♥

but honestly, you didn't answer my first question!

[cloak]

It wasn't a very specific question.

I can do a lot of things.

[galactically]

like what, though? are you one of those cleaning machines?

[cloak]

Cleaning machines?

[galactically]

that's what i said. like those round and trendy vacuums that move all by themselves and suck up all the dirt off the floor

[cloak]

"round and trendy vacuums"?

[galactically]

yes!

[Hold on, let Sheryl send a picture...

ATTACHMENT: trendyvacuum.jpg

It's a drawing of a circular object with other tiny circles on top, accompanied by a handwritten note that says "It moves by itself and makes cute electrical noises!"]

[cloak]

I wasn't a machine like that.

[galactically]

draw what you look like...

[cloak]

For what reason?

I'm not a machine, but I existed in a digital world.

[galactically]

digital programs take on many forms, don't they?
i like learning about new things

⌒°(❛ᴗ❛)°⌒

[cloak]

Where I'm from system entities are given the form most suited to their task.

[galactically]

then what form DO you take??
i swear if this turns into a game of 20 questions...

[cloak]

The form best suited to pain.

[Sheryl has discovered one cryptic individual.

He can do this all day really]

[galactically]

... ... ...

are you a masochist?!

[cloak]

I don't know that word.
