007: AMAs, Third Round

So, we've got a load of new people, and that means it's time for me to do the only thing it feels like I get on these comms to do anymore: AMAs.

For you new people, I find it helps when we get together and explain a little bit about ourselves, any powers we have, and our skillsets. That way we know what we're starting with and what we can build off of. So, please, come and introduce yourselves and be willing to answer questions.

Well, thank you.

I'm my own person. I do as I please, within the bounds of the law and society.

How do you mean, 'recognized'? I prefer female pronouns and my name is Alia, if that's it. I also prefer 'Reploid.'

I will remember that, Alia. You are something of a wonder coming from the technology I do.

Our droids aren't exactly sentient or self determining. They have extensive code and personalities that develop over time but none are truly 'alive' as my people have deemed it.

Thank you, Princess.

They sound like the robots of the early 2000s. And, honestly, I wouldn't consider anything short of a Reploid to be alive or even a person. (Commander Data, if you're listening to this, I'm counting you on that level. No fear.) Some robots, even highly advanced ones, might have a facsimile of a personality, but they're only ever following their programming in the end.

From what I can tell you are as alive as I am. [ Which meant she was to be afforded the same right to live and make her own choices, a far cr from a serving droid. ]

I'd like to speak to you more about yourself and this place perhaps in person if that would be convenient for you at some point.

Well, thank you. But if you spent more time with me in person, you'd start to notice the differences. [The way she can go utterly still, sometimes. The variable glow in her eyes. How she never sweats.]

I'm in the science labs now, and will be for the next few hours. If you wish, just ask one of the workers. They've given me a small workshop of my own.

I'd like that, thank you.

I'm sure I can find the lab, I'd rather not talk too much to our captures before I've learned more about them.
