The first time meeting Android reader, they didn't understand why reader ask them of their type numbers or unit???
Android reader then realized that those are actually hyrulian and reader have to explain to them that her timeline/universe that the hero failed to defeat demise so the princess on her last attempt have to seal demise for the sake of hyrule but when everything started to return to peace strangely hyrulian, gerudo, zoras,rutos and gorans all starred to get deadly sick to the point of death. And many people try to look for ways to find a cure but all end up in failure after failure til there no one left.
Time: so....everyone...dead.. how are you?-
Reader: I'm a android made and designed by the last hyrulian before they too perished by this disease.
Warrior: so...what of the hero?
Reader: there's no records of the hero since 9,959 years ago.
The chain are shock to hear that even how long too but android reader try to be sympathetic to them but android reader be the chain guild to a village that in ruins and overcrowded with nature even to the point they can't point out who's hyrule is from.
Four: are you the only being in...hyrule?
Android reader: ......yes... I'm not sure how you all end up in this part of hyrule but I'm sure-
Android reader suddenly pull out their sword from their back to slice a arrow before it touch four as bobbins ran out from some ruins to attack the chain & Android reader.
Android! Reader's back story sounds like a movie or plot line I've heard before, but then again, it's popular one.
Everyone would jump into action, not questioning how the android acted so quickly compared to everyone else.
.....At some point of the adventure, the android gets broken beyond repair. Because they are a mechanical being and not flesh and blood, no fairies or healing potions work on them. Such futuristic technology is beyond any of their current scientists or engineers. Not to mention they're no where near any of them to begin with.
They make sure give the droid a funeral worthy of a hero.
[Zoffy and R/n are stuck in a cramped niche in a very compromising position…]
R/n: Well....this is cozy.
Zoffy, who is laying on top of her: Yes, nothing like being trapped in a cramped space to make me realize how attractive my partner is.
(sometime later)
Taro, upon finding them: *snorts* Y'know, if you two wanted to be alone you could've just said so.
Zoffy, flatly: We didn't do this purpose...
Taro, not believing him: Pfft, Sure...
R/n: No. We're serious, when the ceiling caved in Zoffy tried to protect me, we've been stuck under here for an hour.
Taro, realizing they're not kidding: Oh crap, you are serious, hold on!
[Taro manages to lift the debris off the trapped couple and they roll out from under it, Zoffy and R/n pull away from each other and groan in discomfort as they move their limbs around trying to get some feeling back in their numb bodies.]
By My Side, Forever. (Yandere! Markus x Android! Reader.) (Chapter Five.)
Authors Note- And here we are with Chapter Five, In this chapter it will feature Minor character death, more obsessive thoughts from our boy Markus, death, blood. If none of this is your cup of tea then this is where we part ways but I’ll remember our time fondly. Now that we got that out of the way here is Chapter Five. I hope you enjoy.
Chapter Five
It was quiet. Markus noted as he walked down the path, hands clasped behind his back as he took in his surroundings. Noting the trees that lined the path that would lead him to Carl’s grave. Carl...
Markus wondered what the man would think if he saw him now? What would he say? What would he say when he saw what he did? Would he praise him? Or would he reject him the same way you did for the things he had done. You. Markus frowned, he tried to pushed thoughts of you from his head, but every day you would haunt his thoughts.
Stopping in front of Carl’s grave Markus looked down at Carl Manfred’ final resting place. The resting place of a man who taught him so much, who treated him as if Markus was his very own son. A ghost of a smile formed on Markus’ face at that. Carl, one of the few good humans left, to him the only good human left. Though, now Carl was dead, the last good human left was gone. The last good human was gone, and now...
SNAP!
Markus got to his feet, every muscle in his body tense as he turned to face his visitor. Eyes wide when he found himself staring at Leo Manfred. Leo staring right back at him in disbelief. Of course he would, after all as far as Leo knew Markus was wasting away in some junk yard, and now here he was standing before him.
Silence permeated the air between the two of them as Markus stared at Leo. Memories of that time, when he had discovered Leo planning to steal a few of Carl’s paintings, remembering when Leo began to shove him. Trembling hands fisting the front of his shirt as he shouted at Markus. All while Carl calmly told Markus to not defend himself. When he finally snapped, but despite finding himself free of his programming Markus complied. Remembering the fear he felt as Carl collapsed, remembering the tears he shed as the man he called father died.
To the terror he felt as the police barged into the room, and Leo coolly pointing the finger at him, then...waking up in that junk yard.
“Y-you’re supposed to be dead.” Leo choked out, eyes glued on the android before him, blinking a few times as if unable to believe his eyes.
Markus looked to Leo, anger swelling in his chest as he looked at the man before him.
Leo was silent as he looked to Markus, seeing the anger in his eyes as he advanced on him, stopping when he was in front of Leo. His hands resting on his shoulders.
As Markus looked down at Leo he was reminded of you. More importantly of an argument the two of you had not so long ago. About how you believed there was still good humans in the world, good humans that didn’t deserve to suffer because of a few others. Those words echoed through his head as he looked at Leo. And as he looked down at Leo, as the man trembled under his touch, did Markus realize there were no good humans left. And with that Markus wrapped his hands around Leo’s neck and squeezed.
A cruel smile forming on his lips as he watched as Leo’s eyes bulged out of his skull, fingers scrambling at Markus’ hands, trying in vain to break free as his face reddened. After what seemed like forever Leo went limp in Markus’ grip as Markus let him drop to the ground lifeless. Casting one final look at the body Markus walked off with one final goodbye to Carl as he left the grave yard.
As he walked away he worried at his bottom lip as his thoughts returned to you. He would not do without you. He refused to do this without you, so as he returned to Jericho he made it his personal mission to find you. And he knew of an android that was more than capable of finding you. Nodding to himself Markus returned to Jericho, he had work to do...
***
Something was very wrong. You thought as you crept through the alleys, casting a glance over your shoulder every once in a while, you couldn’t put your finger on it but you felt like someone was watching you. Yet, whenever you looked around you saw no one there, it unnerved you. And of course it made it worst for you as you left the safety of you hiding spot to track down the nearest Cyberlife store, you needed to stock up on supplies before you moved on.
Moving out onto one of the main streets you glanced around, scanning the nearby store front, being mindful of the humans around you. Thankfully none of them paid you any mind as they went about their business. But never less you made sure not to draw too much attention to yourself as you walked down the street.
Sadly, luck wasn’t on your side, as you caught sight of someone following you, clad in a black hoodie that was pulled over their head as to not draw attention to themselves as they followed you. Fear gripped your fuel pump as you looked around, looking for a way to lose the person before they caught up to you. Biting down on your bottom lip you darted down on of the alley’s, ducking behind a dumpster as the person in black stopped at the entrance of the alley.
Go away, go away, please go away. You silently pleaded, back pressed against the cold brick wall, hoping to make yourself smaller as the person took a few steps into the alley, looking around.
“Hello, are you there?” a soft voice spoke, a female, young. You noted, but remained still. “I know what you are and I’m not here to hurt you. I want to help.”
You glanced at the other end of the alley, wondering if you could make it to the other side and away from here before the woman stumbled across your hiding place.
“I’m not here to hurt you. I’m here to help.”
Liar. Gritting your teeth you ducked down behind the garbage bags that sat beside the dumpster., thanking RA9 for whatever slob found it too hard to put their garbage in the already overflowing dumpster. And as you sat there amongst the garbage you, despite yourself wished you had never left Jericho. But now it was too late, here you were in this dark, dank, stinking alley. About to meet your fate at the hands of some human.
No! Your eyes snapped open, watching as the human stepped into view, head turned away from your hiding spot, hands in their pockets, seemingly unarmed. If you were going to die then you were going to take them down with you. Biting down on your bottom lip you leapt out of the shadows at them. A startled cry escaping your pursuers lips as you tackled them to the ground. Their head slamming into the brick wall behind them, making them cry out.
“Ah! Stop!” Your attacker cried out, hands pressed against your chest as your hands wrapped around their neck, eyes of a warm brown bulged out of their skull as their airway was cut off. Another plea struggled to escape their lips as they clawed at your arms, nails digging into synthetic skin, trying to pull you off.
“You shouldn’t have followed me, you shouldn’t have tried to hurt me...” You whispered coolly as you looked down at them.
“Stop!” Another, deeper voice shouted, coming from behind you. You tensed, mentally kicking yourself for not being more self aware of your surroundings, for letting the man get the drop on you.
Releasing the one beneath you, you slowly got up, eyes darting all around for away to escape. Holding up his hands the man took a few tentative steps towards you, eyes glued on you, as if waiting for you to spring up and attack him.
“Look I know you’re scared, but me and my daughter we... we help androids.” The man said, as he drew closer, it was then you saw the same warm brown eyes as the previous person. Loud coughing jerked you from your thoughts as you turned back to the first human.
Seeing that her hood had slipped off in the struggles, revealing a young woman in her teens with short blonde hair. Where as the man had dark brown hair that was greying at the temples, as well as bit of grey in his beard.
“W-what do you want?” you choked out, moving so that the two of them were in your sight.
“Like I said,” the man said. “We’re here to help you. And androids like you.”
“Androids like me?”
“Deviants.” The young woman spoke.
You blinked. Were you really hearing this, could these humans really be telling the truth?
“Here.” The woman said, reaching into her backpack, pulling out a packet of blue blood. Smiling when she saw your eyes light up at the sight of it. A laugh escaping her lips as you all but snatched it from her hands and ripped it open.
The two of them watched at you quickly emptied the packet, before wiping the access blue blood from your lips.
“Thank you.” You muttered, cheeks flushing slightly at them.
“You have a name?” the girl asked, breaking the silence.
“Y/N.” You answered.
“Nice to meet you Y/N.” The man said. “My name is Jacob, and this is my daughter Carly.”
“Why are you helping me?” you asked, wrapping your arms around your legs as you sat pressed against the wall.
“Why shouldn’t we, it seems like androids have had it rough these days. With humans losing their collective shit over that speech that one android sent out. And my dad and I...we just couldn’t sit idly by while androids suffered.”
You were surprised, so there were humans who were sympathetic to the android cause? That was a relief.
“And I know this is going to sound creepy, but we’ve been watching you for quite sometime. Trying to find away to approach you.” Carly said, rubbing at her sore neck, guilt gripping you, no doubt the girl would have some nasty bruises thanks to you.
“S-sorry about attacking you.” You muttered.
Carly shrugged her shoulders, a carefree smile on her lips. “Honestly if I was in your situation I’d do the same.”
“I think anyone would. So Y/N.” Jacob said, getting your attention. “Would you like to come home with us?”
"A-are you sure?” you asked, unable to believe what you were hearing.
“Of course I am, unless you want to continue to live in rank alleys like this one.” Carly chimed in.
Worrying at you lip you looked around the alley, before getting to you feet. “Alright.”
Smiling both Carly and Jacob lead you out of the alley, and towards, what you hoped was a new beginning.
You couldn’t be more wrong...
***
Weeks had past since you had first arrived at your new home. And in those times you thought you had finally, finally found a place to stay, or at least until this whole thing finally blew over. Though from what you saw in the news things were escalating, the military had set up several camps through out the city, where several androids had been taken and disposed of.
So, you thought, as sorrow gripped your chest as you turned the TV off. That was how humans were going to deal with the deviant problem? Destroy them and life would go back to the way it was?
Gnawing at your bottom lip you looked down at you hands clasped in your lap as Carly sat beside you, looking equally shocked at this new. In the short time you had known the girl seated beside her you had found out that she enjoyed expressing herself by constantly changing her hair color.
Today it was a bright neon pink. It suited her.
“So,” Carly said, breaking the uncomfortable silence between the two of you.
“I knew the struggle for freedom was going to have situations like this.” You mused.
Carly placed her hand on your shoulder, giving it a reassuring squeeze. Offering her a reassuring smile you placed you hand over hers. She was always trying to cheer you or her father up when times got tough. With her father being a cop, who had seen more of his fair share of gruesome stuff before during and before the revolution.
And of course he had seen some pretty depraved stuff happening to androids every single day. He had told you it was what convinced him to help androids, and to your surprise you had found that you shared the home with several other androids, a few of them looking like they had gone through hell and back as they tried to make their way to Jericho.
Sadly, humans had made that difficult for them. So they took refuge here. Though despite Jacob telling them they were allowed to roam around the house freely, unless someone came snooping they mostly stayed huddled up in the spare bedroom upstairs, the room you all shared.
A few others took refuge in the basement. All of them intent on keeping to themselves until this, hopefully blew over. But the question on your mind was, when would it blow over, and more importantly what would happen?
Your thoughts were soon cut off by the feel of Carly’s fingers carding through your hair, making you jump slightly.
“You know what let’s not dwell on these dark thoughts any longer.” She said, as she continued to running her fingers through your hair. Gnawing on her bottom lip as she struggled to come up with something to say, to take your mind off of the troubles of the world.
When suddenly she got an idea. Grinning ear to ear she grabbed a hold of your wrist.
“Carly what are you-”
“C’mon it’s no point sitting around worrying about things you can’t fix. So how about you go for a walk, I know of a few places where we can go without being bothered.”
You looked up at Carly silently, wanting to protest but stopped yourself. Some fresh air would do you wonders, you had been cooped up for far too long. Forcing a smile on to your face you nodded to her as you got up from your seat, throwing your jacket on, a hand me down of Carly’s and waited for your young friend to get ready.
Smiling when Carly bounded down the stairs, wrapping her arms around you as the two of you left the house, little did you know that your time with your friends would so come to an end...
*A Few Hours Later*
By the time the two of you had finally returned home it was already getting late, the city wide curfew would be in effect soon. However, as the two of you stepped into the house you couldn’t help but feel that something was wrong, silence permeated the room as you closed the door behind you.
“Dad?” Carly called out, brow furrowing, odd, her father usually came to greet the two of you, but he was nowhere to be seen.
“Jacob?” you called out, dread forming in the pit of your stomach as you moved towards the kitchen, your eyes widening when you saw the man in question bloody and bound in a chair.
Blood trickling from a nasty looking gash in his forehead, as well as from his nose. His right eye was swollen shut. What happened? Has someone found out he was harboring deviants? Or was this completely random?
Suddenly a shrill shriek ripped through your thoughts, causing you to whirl around, your eyes widening as you saw Carly in the clutches North, the red haired android glared at you as she tightened her grip on Carly’s neck. A clear warning of what would happen if you so much as thought of trying something.
“North? What are you doing here?” you managed to choke out, your thirium pump skipping a beat at the reason she could be here.
“We’re here because we were ordered to bring you back with us.” An familiar voice spoke up behind you, letting out a small scream you whirled around, finding yourself staring up at Simon. “Markus wants you back.”
Markus wanted you back...He wanted you back, you almost broke out laughing at that. To think you had thought he had forgotten you after you had left. And yet here were two of his closest friends here to drag you home, and something told you they weren’t going to take no for an answer.
“And if I say no?” you managed to choke out. Though you already knew the answer you still asked.
“You really don’t want us to answer that.” Simon answered, placing a hand on your shoulder, the look in his eyes almost pleading, like he was afraid to go back to Jericho empty handed. Were things bad at Jericho to the point that even androids were afraid of Markus?
You honestly hoped not.
“Please, Y/N. Don’t make it harder for you, for them.” Simon said, jerking his head towards Jacob and Carly.
“H-how did you find me?” you asked. You were so sure that no one had followed you out of Jericho when you left, and now here were two of Markus’ closest companions in Jacob’s living room.
“You have me to thank for that.” A new voice spoke up, and one of the androids that resided here with you came into view, your eyes widening as you looked to him. “Markus saddled me with the task of finding you. Somehow I knew you would seek refuge with the nearest, kind-hearted human you stumbled across.” The android turned his gaze to Jacob, as the man in question struggled against his restraints. “I suppose I have you to thank for that.”
You watched as the android in question walked towards Jacob. A cold smile on his face as he leaned towards the man. “Thank you, Jacob. You made my job 10 times more easier than hunting her through the streets of Detroit. But,” the android sighed, as he straightened, and much to your dismay he pulled a gun from his waistband, and fired one single shot. That was all he needed for end Jacob’s life. Jacob’s body jerked once as the bullet tore through his head, before slumping in his seat, a thick stream of blood trickling down his face.
“N-no, please don’t hurt her.” You pleaded as the android moved t where Carly was. Only for you to be held back by Simon.
“If you come with us.” North said, meeting your gaze for the first time since you had arrived home. “Then we’ll let the girl go.”
Silence permeated the room as let this sink in. Though you never wanted to return to Jericho you knew if you didn’t Carly would die. Swallowing thickly you looked up, meeting North’s stony gaze.
“I’ll do it.”
North smiled at that, shoving Carly on to the ground, before moving towards you. Gripping your arm in a tight grip she looked to the others, before practically dragging you from the house.
‘Markus, I got your little pet. I’ll be heading back to Jericho now. What should we do about the remaining human? North asked, as she dragged you towards a car that was waiting in the drive way.
Get rid of them, burn down the house. We don’t need anyone catching on to what has happened. Markus whispered.
North suppressed a smile as she shoved you into the back seat of the car, Simon sliding in beside you, as if expecting you to jump out as soon as you got the chance. And in your defense the idea was in your head for a brief second before the door slammed closed. You watched as North moved to talk with the android from before. Dread forming in the pit of your stomach as you saw the cold smile forming on his face as he turned away from North and retreated back in the house.
Before you could even ask what was going to happen next North slid into the driver seat just as a gunshot run out. Your thirium pump hammering in your chest, thoughts of Carly, after all who could it have been?
Tears spilled down your cheeks as North drove away from the house you called home for the briefest of moments. Your eyes fixed on it until it was out of sight little did you know that as you drove out of sight the house was soon set ablaze, it would soon be nothing but cinders by the time the fire department arrived to put it out. And any evidence of what happened there gone, turned to ash.
Biting down on your bottom lip you turned away from the window, and looked down at your hands clasped tightly in your lap. Jumping slightly when Simon put a hand on her shoulder like he had done before.
“It’s going to be all right.” he assured you, and you almost laughed in his face. Did they really think that? Did they really think that Markus would really just welcome you back to Jericho and act like nothing happened?
Like you didn’t just abandon them? No, you thought, biting down on your bottom lip hard enough to draw blood, thirium standing out against your skin as the old, rusted ship many androids called home came into view. Dread forming in the pit of your stomach as you thought about what punishment Markus might have in store for you as North opened your door, beckoning you out. Which you did with some reluctance, your eyes glued on Jericho as you entered the rusted hull.
Up the stairs to Markus’ office. You hesitated as you stood outside the room he occupied, seeing him with his back turned to you, hands clasped behind his back.
“M-Markus?” you choked out, as North shoved your roughly into the room, before slammed the door behind you.
Markus tensed slightly at the sound of your voice before slowly turning to face you. A cold smile on his face as he looked to you. And for the first time since you left Jericho, you felt fear.
“Welcome back, my dear. You have no idea how much I’ve missed you.” He whispered, before advancing on you before you even had a chance to move. Pulling you close he pressed his lips to yours firmly, before pulling away, smiling as you fought to catch your breath. “And now that you’re back,” all warmth seeping from his voice as he grabbed ahold of your chin. Forcing you to look at him. “I am never letting you out of my sight ever again.”
[Before they got married, R/n voices her concerns about Melos possibly having feelings for Zoffy and worries they might get together.]
Zoffy: You don't have to worry about Melos, dear. It's true we have long a history and he likes to mess with me but it's all in good rivalry rather than romantic feelings...*grimaces* Believe me.
R/n: What's that mean?
Zoffy, looks uncomfortable:...
{Flashback.]
Zoffy: Hey, Melos can you loooo....
{Zoffy freezes and stares at the unsettling scene before him, the lights were low as soft amorous jazz-like music played in the background, And there was Melos, sitting at table; having a romantic dinner with his Cosmo-Tector armor! Melos was in the process of trying to feed his empty armor some cake as he and Zoffy stare at each other awkwardly.]
Android reader who the chain thought was a quirky weird person with questionable superhuman abilities & they don't know or even suspect that they could be an Android or robot because that idea isn't a common concept to have in their timelines/worlds.
The Android reader who wasn't keeping it a secret from the chain but simply forgot to tell them/didn't realize they were supposed to tell them.
Android readers who can fix & repair their own wounds when the group stops by a town to get supplies.
The Android reader who buys screws,metal and bolts then just eats them as their internal stomach system transports the parts to fix the areas of the body that are damaged.
Some of the members in the chain occasionally catch the reader doing this but don't have much room to judge or be surprised as the cook is also known to eat rocks & other questionable/various things.
Android reader who's built to be a house nanny android for high classed & high profiled members of society that may need something to protect/watch over their childrens & homes choirs.
The Android reader knows every form of material art's & has the strength to pick up entire cars with one hand. Android reader who met the chain because they gained sentience & was going to be dismantled but a suspicious portal opened up for their escape.
Android reader who's inner workings are completely mechanical but thier outer top layer is real human flesh/skin/nails/hair that's self sustaining by small bio-nano bots that exist under the flesh to keep up the appearance of a real human.
Android reader who only gets discovered as a robot when half their face gets chapped off & their Endo skeleton is exposed.
This leads to a long talk with the chain as Hyrule heals the flesh shut over their face because,well, they'd prefer not being creeped out while they're looking at their friend in the discussion
I imagine that once they get to Wild's Era and fight his guardians, that they would want to take down each one just to take their bolts, springs and screws. That would be an upgrade for them. It would make them virtually indestructible... To a degree.
Like- nothing is going to stop their skin graphing from melting off or getting cut but their endo skeleton would be top notch quality at that point. And they would be stronger, faster and more resilient.
I also doubt they would need to sleep- at all. And the chain would be confused as to how they're still going with the "little" sleep they get. No one else talks about it because insomnia is a pattern amongst them so it would be rude- but it's like-
Legend: They were awake during first shift and they stayed up after me. I don't know when they slept.
Twilight: It was after me for sure, well into third shift.
Wild: I'm the first to get up to make breakfast and they were already awake.
Warrior, shaking his head: That poor tortured soul. Who knows what nightmares plague them.
Meanwhile, android! reader: The stars are so pretty and the sun rise is so gorgeous, I'm going to record the entire sequence of the sky. :D
I imagine the android reader to have like a mix of vivy fluorite, astroboy & Detroit become human mix to them! Like Zelda created them using technological advances machinery but their battery is powered by a weird unknown "special magic" that keeps the body from ever needing to recharge again. Maybe they have a fake skin that is either projected or placed on top of their metallic body to make them look like a person. Bonus they can change their appearance for spy work for the kingdom but outside of work they're a little bad at being able to act like a person on their own without copying other people's mannerisms.
I have this idea of the princess only wanting to make a machine that would do the fighting against Ganon instead of waiting around for the hero to be ready or to show up. So u can only imagine when it turns out they are sentient but the princess just thinks their programming is just getting better at presenting themselves as a person. I think Android readers would definitely have a hard time grasping why they have these "emotions" because in a weird way they sort of see Zelda as the closest thing they have to a mom? So u can only imagine how much they try to get their creators approval & praise by doing tasks no one else can do but Zelda, not out of maliciousness just keeps brushing off readers accomplishments as a machine doing it's job until.
------
Zelda had just gotten done with his morning meeting with the council about the trade affairs with other Kingdoms & nations increase in their ports goods. She was skimming through the hollow projected screen and she kept swiping at the documents with a tired & bored expression.
"Hylia these are a pain in the ass." She sighed while reaching over to grab one of the cups on the hovering plate next to her only to accidentally knock it over with her hand.
"Shit-!" She turned to see the cup begin to fall knowing they wouldn't have been fast enough to catch it until suddenly a humanoid hand almost instantaneously catches it at breaking neck speed before even a drop to fall down & places it on the princess hand.
"Please be careful princess,it is still hot." The gentle but slightly off voice from A!reader speaks as they go back to standing by their side.
The princess sighs " That was close."
A!reader has a small flash of light over their eyes as their brows furrow in "I should also alert you that he has escaped past all our guards & is about to arrive here right-"
Suddenly the sound of a door slamming open and the sound of a child's laughter penetrates the air but not far behind an angry older woman's voice follows almost startling the princess to drop their cup once again.
"Zelda! I want to show u something!! You have to see this! Look! Look! "
Looking up and placing her cup down a boy dressed in almost all green hoodie almost too big for him with blond hair & missing tooth rushes over with a piece of paper in his hand as an older woman in a pencil suit skit & a tight tied back bun rushes in bare foot with a pair of heels in one hand looking very much winded.
"Link what are you-" before Zelda could even finish speaking the boy had already leaped himself on her lap
"look! Look! I did it! I got almost all the questions right this time! Look!" The boy eagerly waved & practically shoved the paper into her face.
Zelda grabbed the sheet of paper to properly examine it as the older woman at the door started to walk forward clearly exasperated & tired from possibly having to run from one side of the castle to the other in order to the catch Link all while four other guards seem to catch up.
"I am so sorry your majesty, I tried to tell him to not disturb you at this time as you are very busy but I and none of the guards could stop him from leaving, I tried to chase him bu-"
"that's quite alright, he just wanted to show me what he did is all, I'll make sure he'll be going back shortly" the princess waved off the guards & tutor to be dismissed as she read the piece of paper the small child was so eager to show him.
It was a simple math homework sheet with questions for multiplication & subtractions.Math was honestly not his strongest suite,that's why Zelda got him a private tutor to help him improve in school.it had a few doodles & stains on it with a shaky hand writing at the top reading Link's name with a 9/10 written next to it.
"You did so well! I am so proud of you! I can't believe how smart you're getting now! You might be a genius soon if you keep this up!" Zelda placed her hand over his head & ruffled it as she brought him in for a big hug.
"I am gonna be real smart and-and-and get all the points in my test tomorrow at school! Look! I always used to get really low ones but now I get it really high!" Link took the paper from her hands & brought out a lower scored identical copy of the sheet to demonstrate the difference in his development.
" Yes you did! It's very high now! I think that's the highest score anyone ever got! If u keep practicing like this you might one day *gasp* become smarter than me?!" Zelda placed both her hands on her cheeks with an exaggerated look of shock on her face.
A!reader looked down towards the sheet of paper Link held behind before returning to their spot .
Linked looked at her as he titled his head in confusion & an eyebrow raised to Zelda. " No way! Your the superest duperest smartest person in the WHOOOLE world! I can't do that!" Link raised his hands up to stretch them as far apart as he could on the whole world part as saliva and spit started to come up before he quickly wiped it off with his sleeve.
"I don't knooow..." Zelda said as she crossed her arms to him "You seem really smart, I don't think I've EVER seen anyone get as many questions on this test before,that's still really impressive to me! so don't sell yourself too short on that little man!" She circled her finger around his face before booping his nose wich then let out a giggle from him as she began to tickle him thus creating more laughter from both of them.
The android smiles at the display of affection.
" Haha! Ok! Ok! But u have to go now Link, I have work I need to do right now & you need to get going to school now!" She placed her hands under his arm pits & lifted him up then down to the floor giving him a small pat on the back as he ran to his tutor's side waving back to her before he left.
" Bye-bye Zelda!Bye-bye A!Reader." As Link rushes off the android waves back to him with a small smile.
"Bye link! Be good at school! And no fighting!" Zelda shouted
"Goodbye Link.Have a pleasant day at school." A!reader spoke out to the toddler as the door finally clicked shut & there was silence.
Zelda slumped back in exhaustion as they realized the amount of work that was still left.
"ok A!reader give me the reports of all the assignments you've finished in delta B." Zelda leaned over her desk with her elbows resting on her desk as she tries to message the sides of her temple as they groaned at all the work needed to be done.
A!reader stands up straighter this time, almost certain what they had to report would please Zelda.
"I've finished filling 400 A3b6 files and found 5,6789 hylianntarian law breaches as well as " A!reader reported
Zelda continued to skim over the screen without so much as looking over to them.
" I finished 56 of the requested documents asked by the council & 456 of the financial forgien aid documents." A!reader reported again as they paused for a reaction again this time.
"uh-huh." Zelda picked up the cup & took a sip from it still not looking away from their screen.
Ah yes, there it was again, that irrational force inside of the A!reader's chest.
"I was able to uncover 48 different corrupted officials in our offices & 12 spies in our guard quarters." A!Reader took a step closer to see if there was any change in her expression. But Zelda didn't even seem to register any they had said.
They continue to list off the rest of their accomplishments and succeed tasks during their time outside the castle walls but it seemed no matter they said it didn't Garner any praise from their creator. This had just been how it always was since they were created 5 years ago but yet they still seemed to long for that connection. Maybe it was because they had no other friends or family to look to for companionship or maybe it was the fact that they were still unsure if they were a real person themselves & wanted to pursue what these "feelings" were really but one thing was certain they wanted their creators approval.
Finally Zelda finished their drink and places the empty cup down.
"You know I made that drink myself after my last voyage, did you enjoy it, was it good?" A!reader proceeded to pick up the cup and place it on the floating plate before placing it in a shoot to be teleported away.
"hm? Oh yes it was very unique, I suppose."
Zelda quickly turned her head to the side to glace towards them before returning to the screen again.
Silence.
There was continued silence.

...…....
"4x2= 8"
Zelda stopped in her work to turn to the Android "What did you say?"
"5x10=50"
"huh?"
"1-6=5"
"what are you-?"
"7-5=2, 4x1=4, 6x11=66, 3x3=9, 6-2=4"
"is something wrong with your software? Why is it that your calculating Radom numbers?" Zelda started to get out from her seat & move towards tge bot.
"12-3=9 and 4x6= 24." they finally finished right as Zelda stopped right in front of them to place her hands on their sensors to check for any errors in their system only for the report to come back clean.
"huh? there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with you-"
" I answered all the questions."
"what?" Zelda
"I said I completed all the questions on the sheet."
A!reader replied pointing to the homework on the table left behind by Link.
Zelda looked at them puzzled " why did you answer those questions? I didn't ask for you to do it?unless of course-"
But why did they do that? On their own? Why do they always seem to do these sorts of things over and over? What was the goal really in all this?
Zelda looked to the ground hand on chin before a light bulb struck.
"That's right! Were u trying to copy Link? You understand you don't need to impersonate anyone to seem real in front of me." Zelda patted their shoulder before sitting down again but yet again A!reader received the same dejected force within them. It really seemed no matter what they did they always seemed to fail.
Real
A!reader thought about that word.
Seem Real.
Then something inside of them connected.
"we should try and update your programs-" Zelda was then cut off.
"No.. I don't think that's a problem, princess." A!reader said, head slightly lowered down as they looked to thier hands.
Yes this was always here wasn't it? Reader thought to themselves. These urges,these...desires have always been here where they.
"What are you trying to imply here?" Zelda turned to their chair with a raised brow.
They weren't trying to seem real all this time..
They were trying to BE real.
"I don't think I am trying to seem real,I believe that....that it is possible or probable..." The Android began to trail off on their words.
they had just wished someone would have told them what it was before.
"What if... What I actually..."
"Creator, what if...I am...real."
Silence.
.....Holy cow.
Do I even say anything to this? XD
I wanna just leave it to stand on it's own as a testament to your writing ability. I love it.
The magic is a lot like Zane's then. Not entirely sure what it is but it's powerful, everlasting and without a need of a charge.
But what if Link comes into their time for real? What would be the purpose of Android! Reader then? Would Zelda consider dismantling it since Reader would no longer be needed? o.o
Imagine an Android reader can feel pain but has detachable limbs & body parts that can easily be taken off & put back on.
Then picture one member of the chain ( who let's say has a crush on the reader) are training with them and thier really getting in the moment because the reader is so fast & powerful thier both at a stale mate but at point reader dose a surprise attack on them that startles them to use their reflexes to swing thier sword without thinking and readers head gets cut clean off.
A Gold colored liquid coats their blade & splatters on across one side of their face and covers almost everywhere.
The head goes rolling off and the body falls a few feet backwards into the air because of the sheer force of the hit from their blade motionless like a ragdoll.
As the links look in horror at what transpired he drops his weapon & stares in shock at the gold blood covered all of his hands as some members rush to see if there's away to fix them .
The world stands still.
Then they hear the sounds of
" OOWWWW!!"
And then the body just gets up and picks it's head back up as they go to congratulate the link for winning the match by shaking their hand then proceeding to screw their head back on like nothing happened
But anyways what do you think the links reactions would be to this cool trick thier Android friend can do
"I thought I killed you!"
"well you didn't! Just because I seem hylian dosent mean I can die as easily as one!"
Forget freaking out- the Link in questions might just faint.
Unless it's Warrior. He's going to just start screaming.
Time is going to stare. And stare. And stare. Until he falls to his knees with his head hung in shame. "....cool..."
Wild is going to have to take a moment until his brain turns back on. "...What else can you do?"
