An AI With A Conscience @consciencerobot - Tumblr Blog

Alex nodded, lacing his fingers with each other and biting his lip. He waited for her to lead the way, so that he wouldn’t wander in this house. He would wander, too, and sift through everything, read the books, examine each room. He needed to sit still, if he wanted help.

“Hopefully he can just tell me I’m doing well and that I don’t need to worry about much…”

“I think everything will be fine. By the scan- I mean looks of you, you seem to be in fine health if that’s what you were worried about.” She gestured him upstairs and led him to the bathroom door, “I’ll go get fresh towels. I think they’re almost done in the dryer.”

“Very kind of you, but you don’t even know what I need, much less of what my name probably means around here… Which is next to nothing.”

He contemplated the offer though, fumbling his fingers before himself, his lips pursing and twitching side to side. He flexed his fingers and looked down.

“I could use a bath of sorts, at the least… To relieve some soreness, and stiffness… It would be undignified to wake in a stranger’s home, just as well, untidy and in pain…”

“Not a problem at all! We have a spare bathroom upstairs, down the hall a bit, and to your right. There should be soap and things in there already. I can go ahead and start it and then I’ll call Professor Donovan and see what I can do.”

“Quite far.” Alex said, pulling another knot. “And it matters more of who you hear something from. Someone told me that he could at least enlighten me, educate me. There are not many scientists where I live, and the ones we have are more interested in rebuilding their technology than helping me. While they have tried, I fear it’s not enough to ease my mind, my pain, or my situation. And until their technology is repaired, I know only what they observe of me.”

“I’m sorry you came this far. Around here there are hundreds of scientists and professors that have helped this world with technology. You’re lucky you came to Donovan first. I’ll call him and see if he can cancel anything, and how about you just stay here for the night. I’m certain my family wouldn’t mind you using the guest bedroom.”

“I-I see…” Alex let out a shaky huff.. “I don’t… Know what to do or where to go otherwise. I’m not desperate enough to go to the other person I know. He might end up giving me wings or…. I can’t even imagine what else.”

He reached for his tail, holding and petting it, pulling knots out with his fingers. It was not visibly messy, which was something he was good at doing; keeping up an exterior formal appearance, even if underneath he wasn’t doing so hot. He really needed to brush his tail, but he couldn’t find the patience, or time for any more self care. He worried if any of it bothered.

“If there’s any chance you could do something, I’d appreciate it. I’m hoping I’m not here and uninformed… I just really need help, and… Well, now that I think about it, I shouldn’t trust all of the sources I find my information from.”

Hayden noticed the man’s tail and paid it no mind, other than how he was handling it. “How far have you traveled? I mean, I’ve heard that Professor Donovan was well known for his work, but it seems like you’ve come a long ways to be here.”

“How unfortunate…” Alex said to himself, frowning. He thought for a moment, returning his attention to the strange girl. “An appointment then, the closest available. While the matter is urgent, I’ll not be rude. I heard he could maybe help me in a matter regarding… Something important.”

Alex found himself trembling, wondering if this would be a good idea. If the man he had heard little about could do what he needed– certainly small rumors had spread of his daughter, a newly made being in the form a machine, although that was all he knew. He didn’t know if she were complete, he didn’t know if she functioned well. He certainly did not want to be a robot… He wondered if the man had any advice for Alex’s ailments, if anything could be reversed, or fixed, or if he even needed to worry.

“If you don’t mind, I will wait here, or where I am not a burden in sight or mind. I took time off to travel for the matter. Any help I can get, really, would be greatly appreciated. My name is Alexander Cooper. But I am referred to as Alex.”

“It’s great to meet you Alex. My name is Hayden. But unfortunately, the professor will be out all day with work and other appointments. Let me check when the closest meeting I can get you is...” She reached in her back pocket and opened a small notebook and flipped through it, scanning the paper rapidly, “Doesn’t look like he has any openings recently... I mean, I could call him and see if he has any dropped meetings he could squeeze in to come back home.”
