Hello everyone! This is Clear.

Is there anyone that knows anything about advanced technology? To be more specific, does anyone here know how to work with it or fix it?

Also! Vaiz-san, I think I made a cake. I hope that it will be to your liking. Since the ingredients are strange here, I created a different flavor. It should be pleasing to the pallet.

you could take it to a smith. or yell at it.

I do not know if that would work very well, hahaha...

Does yelling at technology work for you?

no. but it's something I have control over, unlike the magics of this device. cash is still explaining to me how selfies work.

Magic? Ooooh. I think I understand. Do you come from a long time ago?

Do you know how to do magic?

perhaps. I do not know of a time different from my own, so what might be long ago to you is not so long for me.

I only do magic in my dreams. I do not know the magic of these rectangles.

These rectangles are called cellular phones and I am fairly sure they are just science and technology.

But dream magic sounds wonderful! What is it like to dream? I have never had one of those before. I wish I could.

why don't you dream?

I have two kinds. Fear-dreams, which are like memories, but worse. Those...they are not the best example of good dreams.

But I also have the wolf dreams. I run with my pack. We hunt. We are strong and free.

I just have never been able to. I would like to one day.

'Wolf dreams'? Those sound very nice. Have you ever been another animal before?

I have been the night wolf. I was a cat, once, as well.

the wolf dreams are my favorite of all. perhaps you will dream, someday. do you sleep?

Were you a fluffy wolf in your dreams? Fluffy things are very nice to touch. If I were to be a wolf, I would definitely want to be fluffy.

I can sleep, but if I sleep, I do not dream. I really hope that someday I can dream something nice like being an animal.

no. I was a strong wolf. I smelled of blood and power and freedom. no human could pet me.

a think of a dream. think of it very hard, and it may come.

I understand! What do you feel when you wake up from a dream? Is it a good feeling?

I wonder if it would work if I do just that. I will try it!

I miss my pack. I do not want the dreams to end.

Let me know how it goes.

Depends on the technology. I'm not a great engineer, but I can code and program like a boss, I know how accuracy stabilizers in weaponry work, I'm super good at sales, and I have cybernetics.

[That’s better than nothing!]

I would like to ask you a favor in looking at something for me. Is that okay?

No harm in asking. I reserve the right to say no.

Uhm...

Me. Could you look at me?

...sure? Flip it over to video, I'll let you know what I think.

[He tilts his head at the camera.]

Like this?

Okay okay, so I am worried about my auto-recovery system not working as well as it normally does. Would you like me to demonstrate?

Mm, nope. [He shrugs, definitely not paying attention to what's being said.]

Sorry dude, I'm gonna have to go with a six. Maybe a seven- but you're a little short and you just don't have a powerful vibe, you know?

Eh? I am very confused about what you are talking about.

I am not short. I am quite a bit above average height.

That is not the issue.

Oh, weird. Maybe it's the angle of the video.

[Pause.]

...what's the issue, then?

I think I am malfunctioning.

[He looks really embarrassed about it.]

Edited 2015-12-16 19:54 (UTC)

Malfunctioning... how?

[He's still a little confused, sorry.]

[ Oh! He knows this voice. He was going to say hi and his name first so he started recording but he couldn't remember his name right away so there's some silence first.

When he can't remember it, he moves on to more exciting topics. And he actually sounds just a little bit excited. As excited as he can sound, really. ]

You did?

[He can pick out many voices that he recognizes.]

Yes! I do not think it is a flavor that exists on Earth, but it tastes good. I spent a lot of time trying to figure it out, so I hope that you enjoy it!

Uhm...ah...Where should I take it to?

That sounds great. [ There are many more words hidden behind the very few words. ]

Aaah, I'm at home.

Where is your home?

Uuuh, 1202? Yeah, something like that. My neighbor has a dog.

A dog?! Uwah! Is it fluffy?! I want to pet it!

[ It was meant to be as a landmark in case the dog was outside... ]

You'd have to ask him.

Ah. I see!

So then, would you like me to come over now? I am not doing anything important at the moment.

[ Shrug. ]

Yeah, sure.

You mean robotics, right? I'm sure there are some people here who could help you.

Shhhhh! Shhhh! No, Adam-senpai! Please do not say it out loud! It is not something that I want everyone to know!

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize - I won't say it again. Um, but you can just call me Adam.

Ah...Thank you so much. I did not mean to be abrupt. I am afraid that some people might not like robots. I do not think Ronan-san likes robots.

[He smiles brightly despite that.]

But...Senpai is different than san. Senpai is very appropriate for you.

Ronan's pretty particular about the stuff he likes. Don't take it personally.

[Well... Clear doesn't seem upset about it, at least.]

I don't know what it means, I'm sorry. I don't know any Japanese.

I think he is just protective of his friends. I cannot take something like that personally since I am also protective. It is just in a...er...different way, yes? What do you think?

[He taps the side of his face.]

"Senpai" is...

Someone that someone like me can look up to! It is someone that is more experienced in something than the person that addresses the other as senpai.

And because you are so knowledgeable about various things, I can look up to you for advice and learn from you.

So you are senpai! Senpai is senpai!

That's a charitable interpretation.

[He says it with a slight smile. It's not untrue, after all, although Ronan is also generally kind of a jerk.]

But, uh - I don't think I'd really call myself experienced. I'm an adult, sure, but I'm still only eighteen. I still think just Adam is okay.

[He smiles more when his interpretation is praised. Like a student pleasing his teacher.]

You are more experienced in ways of being human, so in that regard, you are my senpai.

But Adam is okay, then I will try to keep it that way. But in my heart, you are senpai! I respect you greatly!

[Just look at that little bucket of bolts and sunshine.]

Oh! I had a question for you.

Well - thanks, I guess.

[He doesn't really know what to say to that. People don't usually respect him, or at least they never say straight out that they do.]

I don't think I'm the best example of being human, though.

[All things considered.]

What did you want to ask?

[He just smiles happily. He thinks you're being modest. You are an awesome human, Adam.]

What should someone do to be useful to another? What if there is nothing one can do for others that is particularly useful? How does one find their purpose?

[Aoba’s not there, so have fun with those questions]

[Adam does not explain that in fact he's got a weird magical forest in his head and feels like he's slowly losing his humanity. That's a little too personal.]

Well, you decide your own purpose, I guess. It doesn't have to be about being useful to people. It can be about improving yourself, or something else entirely. I mean, I think even most humans don't know what their purpose in life is. You don't have to find it.

Really? Aoba-san said something similar about why people live.

So it is really okay to just work on yourself? If my own purpose was to try to live as a human and that was it, that is okay?

I would say so. If that's what you think will make you happy, and if it's not hurting anyone else, then I don't see why there would be anything wrong with it.
