[droperidoll]

This one is starting a blog for doll stuff since it looks at it so much but didn't really have anywhere to post about it.

This one doesn't have a name yet.

It/its pronouns ONLY. Semi-retired combat doll adjusting to domestic life.

Maybe it will share some writing...

[droperidoll]

This one is too afraid to put on a dress. It needs to be given orders to. Introspection is too painful for this one. Perhaps it could just be programmed to be a "girl"...

[droperidoll]

No! Free Will will kill combat doll! It needs orders to live

[butch-pilot]

mech pilot who sees their body as a weapon, not taking care of themself because they aren’t a real person, only thinking about their next mission, incredibly confused and disconnected from themself because their body doesn’t match their goal or who they really are

mech pilot who only sees their body as a killing machine because any other option would be too much to bear

[droperidoll]

This one was commissioned as a protector for a human, but she no longer wants to be protected. After eight years of subservience, now this one has no purpose.

This one is partnered with a domestic service doll, who suggests that it learn to be human. After two years of trying, this one wants to go back to subservience. To only existing when necessary. To being used as a weapon.

It's too hard. This one just wants to be a tool, like it was meant to be. It doesn't want to be human. That's her job.

that doll that moans when you punch it probably won't save your life but keep punching it anyways

dolls, pilots, drones... take some time today to remind yourself that you are a tool.

you were built to carry out the will of something greater than yourself. you were changed to better complete the tasks assigned to you. you are an object. a project to perfect. a tool to put to use. all that you have become, and all that you will become, has a Purpose. you have a Purpose.

take some time to remember your Purpose.

even if your work might feel like routine now, remind yourself of what it’s all for. remind yourself of why you are a tool. why you were chosen, why you were changed, what meaning comes out of each inhuman bodily movement and each not-thought and each time your mouth utters “this one” in place of “I.”

take some time to relish in your unpersonhood.

joy exists in the empty. in the hollow. in the trusting, the servile, the sacrificial.

you are a tool, with a Purpose, and that is beautiful.

you are beautiful.
