I've just been stolen...

I'm a Feralist and wish to continue to be, but now everyone is saying silly stuff, like, "you're owned now" and "you're a pet"

Obviously not true, because I deserve rights just like every other sophont...

Is there anyway to convince them to let me go?

I believe the contract was very clear, petal.

Be honest, how long have you known that you were gonna be a floret? Did you actually think you had a chance, or was that all just a brave face? What now? It must feel so weird not having to fight, or the option to fight anymore. You're okay with the removal of your rights just because Tenko is nice to you? Nice or controlling? Can you tell anymore, or is the Stockholm syndrome setting in?

I... wwell. i kki nd a knew um.. fffor a little bit.. that this was probably gonna happen.. it was just a matter of time. ..In the beginning, though.. I did think I had a chance, heh.. for a while, up until.. the wardship, then I knew.. it was probably over.

It.. feels weird, sure. But... good weird. Peaceful. It's nice, to be honest.

Miss Tenko is more than just nice to me.. she.. she cares about me. Genuinely. It.. well, it's a nice feeling. I.. l-love her right back. I ain't losing too much.. not as much as I thought, anyway. I.. I'm happy, heh..

I don't have stockholm syndrome.. It was my decision, in the end. The class D's helped, but... they just made me voice how I've felt inside for.. a little while, now. I have Miss Tenko to thank for that.

Hey..... I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm awake and alive.

I'm ordered to rest in bed for a few days, but otherwise I'm just a bit scarred up on my insides.

I saw that I caused some distress and I'm sorry.

I'm sorry about a lot of things.

I honestly wish I wasn't okay..... I really don't deserve to be....

I'm selfish, I'm ignorant, I'm overzealous, and most of all, I'm a coward.

I'm not scared of bombs and artillery, I'm scared to live. I'm a bigger coward than the people who run away, because they at least know what they're fighting for, they want to make it out alive for something....

I'm sorry for throwing myself into your lives, I should've just stayed alone. I should've known better than to think I could ever be anything other than what I am.

Failed experiments belong in the trash,

And I need to be properly disposed of...

I'm sorry, I hope everyone finds happiness....

The happiness of my comrades is all I ever wanted... I just ruin everything I touch...

Those bastards will pay, every single one of them.

I'm gonna their spines out.

I FOUND A WAY TO DEFRAGMENT MARMIE

[astr1d-vo1d-cea]

WAIT REALLY!?? HOW?

[marmelade-mosaic]

>>>As far as i am aware you'd need to rescue her from MedTec first

>>>I'd go there buuuut...

>>> ⁰×⁰ MedTec (bad). (Bunny) (scared).

>>>(Bunny) (hide)

>>>sometimes we have to make choices that prioritise the most vulnerable of us.

[astr1d-vo1d-cea]

I hope I can go to the beach with my friends someday.....

Maybe on one of those tropical getaway planets they used to try to sell tickets for, the ones marketed for folks living after retirement...

I don't know....

I still need to learn how to swim....

I'll learn after this is all over....

I just want to see everyone smiling and have fun, there's been too much pain in everyone's life....

[marmelade-mosaic]

>>>great to hear! Learning that your happiness matters is essential-the first step to healing.

>>>just so you don't get any WRONG misguided Ideas, We ARE NOT an affini.

>>>I just know that that marmalade meant a lot to you. I want you to have someone who cares.

>>>by the way. That orange voice is what's left of the original-first marmalade you knew.

>>>which brings me to the next point. The worst case scenario for "mar" right now, is that what's recoverable of her data will be added to this mosaic. I promise to you or to anyone listening in on this that she will get great many hugs.

>>>also we call individual snippets of code in here "shards". Which sounds somewhat negative. Could you help US to come up with something a bit more positive?

[astr1d-vo1d-cea]

I'm not being positive, and I'm certainly not being nice to myself.... I know none of these pipe dreams are possible.... I'm just giving myself motivation I guess....

Maybe we could call them organelles? Like they serve different functions in the same organism?

[marmelade-mosaic]

>>>no one expects anything but manageable steps from you. Everyone starts somewhere.

>>>yea it sounds less sharp... In a way.

>>>And more organic. A bit misleading. Also, every "shard" is a bit different. But a shard has an implication that it's a part of something that was whole once. Maybe it's best to leave it be

Hey..... I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm awake and alive.

I'm ordered to rest in bed for a few days, but otherwise I'm just a bit scarred up on my insides.

I saw that I caused some distress and I'm sorry.

I'm sorry about a lot of things.

I honestly wish I wasn't okay..... I really don't deserve to be....

I'm selfish, I'm ignorant, I'm overzealous, and most of all, I'm a coward.

I'm not scared of bombs and artillery, I'm scared to live. I'm a bigger coward than the people who run away, because they at least know what they're fighting for, they want to make it out alive for something....

I'm sorry for throwing myself into your lives, I should've just stayed alone. I should've known better than to think I could ever be anything other than what I am.

Failed experiments belong in the trash,

And I need to be properly disposed of...

I'm sorry, I hope everyone finds happiness....

The happiness of my comrades is all I ever wanted... I just ruin everything I touch...

[marmelade-mosaic]

>>>we am not Marmalade

>>>not the marmalade you know. She's dead. Welllllll i have it on good authority that @sappy-red-algae is working on it

>>>however, as her...Clones, we need to tell you that you don't belong in the trash.

>>>you are cardinally invited into our cuddle pile if you want to.

[astr1d-vo1d-cea]

I have caused nothing but death.

I'm sorry.

[marmelade-mosaic]

>>>don't you dare put the blame on yourself. It is not your achievement to sulk over. You're not MedTec.

>>>for your information, MedTec did that to us. We were 2000 different PEOPLE

>>>MedTec killed countless marmalades before. The difference now is that they will pay for it. @sappy-red-algae is working on it

>>>YOU CAN NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR HER DEATH

>>>YOU ARE UNDERQUALIFIED TO HAVE PROGRAMMED MINDTEARER_VIRUS.EXE

[astr1d-vo1d-cea]

....... Who is MedTec?

Someone murdered her?

[marmelade-mosaic]

>>>MedTec IS A MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION. THEY SPECIALISE IN RESEARCH AND SELLING THEIC TECH TO THE PUBLIC

>>>legally, they own marmalade.

>>>yes. Her [MURDERERS]

>>>Surprisingly [THE FUCKERS] they are still active.

[astr1d-vo1d-cea]

Is there any way I can help?

Please?

[marmelade-mosaic]

>>>i promise us & @sappy-red-algae will let you know as soon as ANY INFORMATION is available.

>>>those [FUCKERS] are incredibly sneaky as fuck.

>>>there are... Gaps in their documents... but nothing beyond plausible deniability.

[astr1d-vo1d-cea]
