Welcome to the End... (Intro)
"It's not good to get attached to things that'll die one day." "That's why I won't look twice at anyone other than my targets. They'll all join the imminent body-pile anyways, so why bother?" "For now, I'm on standby. But if either of them step out of line... well."
A certain silver-furred feline has been seen lingering near the Alley. There's something unnatural about her stark blue eyes...
[OOC, Rules, and Tags below...]
A silver-furred feline with focused blue eyes has been following you around. Except... that isn't a normal cat. Any experienced eye can spot the metallic sheen on her otherwise convincingly textured fur.
It's clear what she is- who is the question.

“…hm. You look familiar. Does it have something to do with C1000 and C800? Doesnt matter. You mean nothing to me anyways.”
*C400 looked away, clearly disinterested in the them*
"So you know them as well..."
"And I have the same to ask of you, because I have seen you around them a bit too often."
”they are my higher superiors. I have no respect for them. Just because you are a mix of them doesnt mean ill just treat you like a god. Im a maiden and maidens don’t need to say anything to some cat who they refuse to know.”
"Excuse me? What is that supposed to mean? Do they still have some affiliation with them? Tell me so I can know if I have to scoop out their CPUs or not. Which mind you, I am not above doing to you. Whatever you are."
”im not going to answer you. Your just a piece of liquid metal that those two some how were able to create. Im just a mere servant is all.”
"Servant?" She finally takes a moment to look over the other machine.
"..."
"... then for once, I'm glad to be a piece of liquid and scrap created from those two idiots instead of whatever you're supposed to be."
"Seriously. What do you even do? Serve drinks to that ugly mustache man and his little cronies?"
”oh no. I terminate distractions to the other models. My best one was a worthless organism named Biscuit Ruiz. That feline was distrscting C1000 from working so easy way to remove distractions? Kill them.”
For a moment, she's stunned. Doesn't know how to reply. She processes it all in microseconds, but those microseconds are spent in utter confusion.
She had no idea that happened. Or that they could even be 'distracted' in that manner. A lot of realizations were coming over her, and none of them were pleasant.
It happens in less than the blink of an eye, so hardly a twitch comes over her.
"... I'll be keeping a closer eye on them. If I see you approach either of them, you're done for."
”you dont need to worry about me with them. I have nothing to do with them. If you need any assistance with anything. Fine a wall. And no clip.”
[C400 walked off into the shadows. What a strange model.]
"No clip...?"
And she had absolutely no info on that. Great.
She might actually have to go back to the Lab for once. Great.
She leaves, incredibly frustrated.

[ You are roaming around the County, when a giant, pale cat enters your path. Something about you screams familiarity, but it can't quite put its paw on it. ]
[ It just... Stares at you for a bit. ]

"..."
She stares back. Her target approaching her so suddenly wasn't expected. Staring it down, she musters the best cold-hearted glare she can manage.
It's not easy. Not because she's incapable. Rather, it's because of who she's staring at.
"What? Got something to say?"
' ' you seem familiar to me..? ' '
- @d-f-girl
"The feeling isn't mutual. You're probably mistaking me for someone else... who even are you? A tourist?"

A new toy?
The C-X has been wandering the Alley for a few days now. Ever since she left the Lab, she's been unsure of how to spend her time. Obviously she needs to keep an eye on those two... but what happens when she's in an already advantageous position and has nothing else to do?
Like now. Night time has fallen, and it's a sort of rest period for the two. Both of their movements become very slow and predictable, so she can afford more time to herself. And most of that time is spent exploring her environment, wherever her targets take her. Although usually it is just in one of Boon County's alleyways.
This time she's digging through a trashbag in a dumpster behind the P-Mart. It's become a hobby of hers to do so. She's always had some mild curiosity of how the lifeforms called "humans" operate, especially since she has the knowledge of their pathetic fates in the future. But she's also learned that approaching them is ill-advised.
Because if she tried, most of them would try to put her in a cage. Then she'd be called a pet and be forced to wear a collar until she has the opportunity to scoop out the brains of her kidnappers... blegh.
How can cats stand for such a humiliating existence?
It's something she finds irritating until she remembers the pitiful hover boards the humans are stuck to in the future. She feels a twisted satisfaction in that thought.
Within the trash bag, she finds... a cat collar, a cat collar, another cat collar... a dead body. Below that, another cat collar. She almost gives up when she spots something interesting.
When she pulls it out, it slips out of her fangs and drops onto the ground. It makes a sound as it does that she finds pleasant. When she approaches and tries to pull it back to her, she accidentally pokes it too hard and causes it to bounce away. An enticing little thread of yarn follows behind the toy.
[New target acquired: Circular Object Made Of Yarn.]
The sand felt strange beneath her alloy paws. She was lingering around the area due to hearing word of one of her targets being spotted there... only to come across the sight of a massive kaiju scratching itself with a cactus.
She has been trying for the past 3 minutes to analyze whatever that big... rock thing is.
- @thecrackofdoom
-If Her database seemed at a loss for information on the creature, then either its something completely new, & should be assessed for what changes it could introduce to any strategic options, or... Its presence as a Variable in Boon county was deemed inconsequential by whoever SHOULD have been keeping notes on things worth knowing before going afield-
-whatever it is, its big, tough, & does NOT match any local geology, meaning it most likely came from someplace else-
-She has the advantage in getting to choose how to approach this situation, as the big rock turtle thing is still engrossed in this self care behavior-
Internally she curses that jar-brained teal furball for not bothering to give her such important information. As she wonders how to handle the situation, she spots another cactus, which she quickly ducks behind.
She can tell its presence in the Desert is unusual. Does this thing have to do with either of her targets? Or will it compromise her mission somehow?
For the time being, she peeks out from behind the other cactus and observes.
-it keeps it up for a bit longer, before pausing, & sniffing at the air-
-it seems to suspect that someone is watching it... Before snorting, & seemingly going right back to getting scratched. Though there's a tension to its expression now. It seems intelligent enough to be capable of pretending it hasn't noticed anything, when its actually paying closer attention to its surroundings than it was before-
-was it intelligent enough to communicate with? Really, any note at all about this thing would have saved a lot of potential trouble-
It sure would've. But C-X can adapt. She keeps her head low and paws steady as she steps out again, counting the ripples in the sand by the particles. With her better view, she tries to more closely analyze the creature.
Down to the smallest pebble that falls off her body, and to the faintest hints of any energy that she should make note of. If that jar-brain was good for one thing, it at least prepared her for the less tangible tricks cats and other such lifeforms used.
-looking for things beyond base physicality, it becomes clear that She is no mere monster. Her Body radiates Galactic Energy, and Her Mind is Psychically Searching at the speed of Thought for any Presences that may be near-
-there's something else there, but its tricky to pin down... Some sort of kinetic reflection barrier enveloping Her?-
-alas, the speed of Thought is FAST, & Her Mind is now aware that Her search has been noticed. She senses that You are more than just some Desert dweller-
-She is looking Your way now, Her brow furrowed, and ready to give You a single chance. Show Yourself, or RUN-
The audacious little thing chooses to step out, staring the giant down.
"How are you enjoying that cactus, Grand Canyon?"
-She snorts, not appreciating the assigned nickname-
'Its 'Zaratana'. And I was enjoying it just fine before I got the feeling someone was snooping around... Were You looking FOR Me, or just at Me.'
-She understands enough of these sorts of Machines to know that Others are often their objectives. She hasn't been the Active Target of any of them yet, but She has Her guard up for if that ever changes. If this One was here for Her, She'd rather cut the crap and get right to things-
"At you. You haven't given me a reason to come for you yet."
-hmmph. Well then this meeting was as Strangers. Not as Enemies. Good-
'I've told You what to call Me. What should I call You?'
-smalltalk aside, She's squinting, trying to evaluate this One's abilities... This One's potential threat... These Machines tended to be very particularly tuned to one extreme or another. Which probably served Their Purposes well, but not much beyond them. Even if they were not meeting as enemies, it was still good to have an idea of what others were capable of, and what they were NOT capable of-
"..."
"C-X. I have a hunch I can't lie to you about what I am, right?"

hey haven't ya seen some weird cat?, saw him run into teh lab and i'm like 90% you're from there¹.
they were kinda short, got 2 heads and one big eye
@boon-countycitizen9858
"The Lab?" Her tone sours significantly at the mere mention of it.
"Yes, I've seen her before. She's no one worth interacting with, unless you'd like a creepy little nuisance poking around that head of yours."
"Though from that accent you've got, I doubt she'd find anything in there, except for piles of hay and horse manure."
was taht supposed to be an insult or a compliment?
anyway thanks
"You're welcome."
She doesn't elaborate. It was probably an insult.
