DLN 000 - Blues. [Action]

[whistles_the_blues]

[Blues hadn't expected his systems to start up again. He was certain the last time he powered down that it was for good that time. It seemed that was not how things were going to work this time around. Though, he was sure when he had shut down he near the ancient ruins of Lanfront, not a castle. This was interesting, had someone moved him? It would explain why he had powered up again, but why would someone go to all the trouble to move him this far away and then just leave him here.

It didn't make any sense, but just laying on the ground wasn't really helping this. He pulled himself up to his feet and began to walk toward the entrance of the castle. Perhaps he could find who ever had brought him here. Or at least find out just where here is.]

ooc: A scarf clad robot walks into your castle. What do?

What I can on my arms, legs and buster. It'll just be cleaning for now.

I don't want to think about what could have gotten into my on the way to Lanfront.

In the future, who knows? I can't really fix my head on my own and it's too risky to touch my core.

So we'll see.

[kryptonian]

Maybe there are people here who can do it.

[whistles_the_blues]

I'd rather do it myself, I may find some to take a look if I get any superficial damage done to my head. My cores off limits though, no one touches it.

[kryptonian]

Hey, you're the expert on you.

[whistles_the_blues]

All the more reason not to play with it. I don't know how to fix it, just what's wrong and what could happen if it's tampered with.

[kryptonian]

So what will you do if something goes wrong, suddenly?

[whistles_the_blues]

Cross that bridge when I get there. It's the best option I've got.

[He let's out a sigh, maybe it would just be easier to tell her the full story.]

If I leave the core it eventually gives out and I'll cease to function, fix the core and it risks deleting my personal coding. I'll cease to be either way, I just want to be myself when it happens.

[kryptonian]

True.

[Sad, though.]

I guess even cyborgs can't live forever.

[whistles_the_blues]

Seems that way. Maybe it's just what happens when you make a machine to be as close to human as possible.

Humans aren't supposed to live forever after all.

[kryptonian]

It seems kind of useless to force something robotic to become obsolete, though...

[whistles_the_blues]

Well I suppose it gets people in line for the next model.

To be fair, I don't think the goal was to make me obsolete. I left before they could attempt to repair it.

[kryptonian]

What was their plan?

[whistles_the_blues]

To fix it. They said I'd be better off without my "rebellious streak."

[kryptonian]

Pfft. I wouldn't give up that in me for anything.

[whistles_the_blues]

[He smiles at that.]

Neither would I.

So I left to live out the rest of my days as I pleased, as myself.

[kryptonian]

And how's it gone? Besides, of course, the Jeep.

[whistles_the_blues]

It went well actually. I traveled, helped those who needed it. I never stuck around too long but as I left every now and again I'd hear someone call me a hero, pretty cool huh?

When I thought my core was going to fail I heard about a place called Lanfront. Humans had abandoned the it because machines stopped working when they got close. Seemed like the perfect place for me to go if I was going to stop working anyways.

...That's where I ran into the Jeep, so really it was just as stuck as I was.

[kryptonian]

That is pretty cool.

I would travel more, but I like having a place to belong.

[whistles_the_blues]

I did when I had one, but it didn't last.

I'm glad you have one though.

[kryptonian]

I'm sorry to hear that.

[whistles_the_blues]

Could be worse. I mean I'm here now and I've already made a friend, things are already looking up.

[kryptonian]

That's true.

I haven't been here long but I've already made some friends. I'm sure you'll have lots.

[whistles_the_blues]

We'll see, I'm not too concerned about it either way.

If you ever need my help with anything, just let me know. I certainly feel like I owe you one.

[kryptonian]

Will do! And you'll know where to find me.

[whistles_the_blues]

I don't know. That's a bit of a walk, don't you think?
