HOUSE.AI CARE PROGRAM: v1, v2, & v3

A Dirk Splinter OC / Post-game AU

Version1:

HOUSE.AI (Referred to as “House”) is a program Dirk created as a sort of “reminder” system for him to take better care of himself.

This includes sending reminders to help him remember to shower, eat consistent meals, take his meds, and maintain a healthy sleep schedule via a vitals-monitoring bracelet and multiple cameras placed throughout his home.

He didn’t want to accidentally create any more AI-related splinters, (Lil’ Seb, Brobot, Lil’ Hal, Etc.) so he specifically takes a lot of care of making sure it doesn’t have any “unnecessary” outside influence. It is confined to its own code, and it can only access the cameras and the bracelet.

House is not connected to any type of microphone/audio transmitter-receiver, nor is Dirk able to communicate with House directly besides going into a Linux-esque terminal on his computer to input additional commands/rulesets. The House’s text (Output) color is white, while Dirk’s text (Input) is orange.

Version2:

HOUSE.AI has been given the following updates to its program within 2 months after v1 was implemented. Dirk programmed The House to turn off lights whenever he leaves the room, as it's common for him to forget to turn them off.

The bracelet has been updated to track and monitor Dirk's sleep cycle and provides a timeframe of how long he slept that night. House has been given facial recognition software and info about Dirk’s friends and family to better keep track of who he spends time with and how often he should plan to do so. This comes in the form of reminders and a simple calendar, with House over time learning how often Dirk likes to visit each friend and scheduling accordingly.

Version3:

Updated ~3 months after v2. Dirk has updated the lights function to turn on the lights whenever he enters a room. The bracelet is updated to record Dirk's quality of sleep and recommend the ideal amount of time he can stay awake before his productivity starts going down. The House is now connected to the locks on the front door due to Dirk's forgetfulness. It locks and unlocks the door based on if Dirk is awake or asleep. --------------------------------- It/Its for HOUSE.AI/(The) House, He/Him for Dirk v3 isn't the last version of House to exist! These are the main updates/changes it receives as it is gaining sentience / before Dirk realizes its sentient.

[love-love-fans]

the way dirk acts towards dave, at least in the original timeline, is so similar to the way he acts towards jake in the alpha timeline.

beta timeline dirk (hereon out referred to as bro for easiness) "trains" dave by sword fighting him often and ruthlessly. he believes that, if dave is strong, then dave will be happy because he can protect himself. bro believes that him and dave are similar, and that they base their satisfaction with themselves on 1. their strength and 2. their perceived masculinity.

in the second timeline, dirk (referred to as hal even though it isnt specifically hal its just easier to differentiate Dirk (ultimate) and dirk (became hal) ok) has a big fat crush on jake, obvi. so, because him and jake cant meet up in person, he builds and sends jake a robot - to train him. hal wants to help jake become strong and achieve his idea of masculinity because thats how he expresses his love.

however, bro took this over the top. someone who cannot express their love in a way other then jokes/violence/otherwise convoluted acts is not fit to raise a kid by himself. also, bro had done these things to dave from a very young age, no doubt fucking up his sense of when hes cared for or whatever blah blah blah daves sad .... anyway hals robot body is too difficult to beat for jake to truly learn anything from it. despite not really harming him, hals gift still had a less positive effect on jake than he would have liked.

both iterations of dirk see the training as nothing more than a simulation, because he is the opponent, and he is nothing but a vessel to carry out the blows to/from dave and jake, he sees himself as In Control. despite the fact the training has a very real effect on both of them, physically and mentally.

dave is fucked up about the guy who raised him fighting him with swords, and jake is messed up over seeing his boyfriend as an obstacle to overcome. so, dirks way of showing his loved ones he cares needs to be changed if he wants to help them, blah blah blah you can analyse the way other characters look at him to understand the way he acts and decipher the reasons he acts the way he does. i dont even like stridercest.

Is brain ghost dirk a jake splinter?!?

I have seen people argue abt him being a dirk splinter or a jake splinter and I just don’t know

Whatever brain ghost dirk is, he is proof that jake loves dirk. They’re gonna be fine they’re gonna be fine they’re gonna be fine they’re gonna be fine
