made0ftime | ♈ >Aradia: Arise Again ♈

♈ AA: Morning; Action at 626 Topper Street
[The first thing Aradia did was run outside of her human hive to look around. Everything was back to normal. It was actually kind of weird how quickly things fixed itself.

What Aradia didn't notice yet is the fact that she's no longer human looking. She doesn't seem to really pay attention as she's found that she's late for school and she's already rushing herself out to get there on time. Looks like Aradiabot is back, but with the same happy personality Aradia still has.]

♈ AA: Afternoon; School
[Aradia arrived at school fine and she's going through the hallways like no one's business. Perhaps you're looking at awe and confusion at a strange young girl robot in your class? Maybe you want to point out to Aradia of the change as she seems to be more then oblivious to it.]

I think I might have missed a class. Do you know we might have done for it?

We can talk about it at the inside eating establishment area. I mean cafeteria.

♈ AA: Late Afternoon; Phone

Oh, uhm! If you see me around, I'm fine. Great. I'm not super creepy or just okay with everything! I think this place must be trolling me or something.

Or maybe this must be what happens when I die. Maybe I just end up back like this. It's hard to explain! If you see a metal robot with horns and long hair, that's me! As in Aradia. I just don't want to surprise anyone or anything. I guess I'm a little upset, but it could be worst. I can fly again, so that's pretty fun.

Honestly, I have no idea how to feel about this. It feels funny.

Is everyone okay by the way? I don't think I've talked to anyone since all that crazy stuff a few days ago.

Right now? So you aren't usually a robot and you look like me? That...is really hard to believe.

[]

And I'm. Not. Her. DAUGHTER.

[]

[No. Screw you. Don't you raise your voice at her.]

No, I'm not usually a robot. And why should it be that I look like you? I've never even met you before! It could just be coincidence! [Except Aradia knows better then to think this is just coincidence.] Unless your name is Aradia and you're a doomed version of me from one of the doomed timelines.

You don't have to yell.

That's not going to get us anywhere you know.

[]

My name is Handmaid, not Aradia. And you would think that the organic looking one would be the original, so don't give me that crap. If you tell me you looked normal before...well, I guess it's possible, but I won't believe it until I see it.

How do you know that stupid cueball anyway?

Oh yes, let me just go ask this unruly place to give me my body back. You know, because it didn't up and decide I should be in this one. [Aradia can do sarcasm too. Shush.] I can't just do that since there's no body to return to.

He's the First Guardian. That, and he was pulling my strings when I was dead.

...

You were dead? You make less and less sense, you know that? Can't you just go and...well...ah fuck this shit, I'm done wasting my time with a robot.

[]

How was he pulling your strings?

To explain the entirety of my life story would require hours and a lot of visual references that I cannot conjure up in this place. You would think that such an inane story would have to be true considering the amount of imagination one would have for trying to make this up.

My death was part of his plan, I'm sure. The dead me was more fatalistic. I was obsessed with doing what was supposed to happen, and so that made me an easy person to manipulate.

No, you could still be lying. An elaborate lie is that, and elaborate lie. Complexity only means you put more thought to it.

In short, you were a gullible fool. A dead one, no less. Alright, let's say I believe you. Why do you look like me then?

I recite this in the mirror every morning, in case I would need to explain to someone who looks like me someday.

I don't know. Why don't you ask Scratch? I know he knows better then anyone.

And yet you can't explain it properly.

[]

Like hell I'm talking to that guy. I can't stand his stupid human face any more than the cueball one.

Huh. I can see why Scratch gets tired of me sometimes.

Well then, I can ask him myself I guess. Someone needs to figure out what's going on here.

Making his life as miserable as possible is the only entertainment he ever cared to spare, so tough shit.

[]

No way, we are going the two of us and make him talk. I want to know how this is going to end.

You just said you didn't want to speak to him though? [Gurl. And you said she wasn't making sense.]

But what choice do I have!

[]

I can't trust you until you get your body back.

You have whatever choice you want to make.

Here, people are more free to do what they want. We aren't tied down by anyone.

I guess I should go try asking for my body back then.

Oh you have no idea.

[]

You are a robot, freedom is a bit away from your grasp.

...can you do that?

A robot doesn't stop me. I'm not programmed or anything. It's more just like a soul in an empty shell? Does that make sense.

This place will let you trade things you get back for other things. I heard you can give up other things too.

I...guess. Are you a rustblood too? All I get from what I see is that blue emblem of yours, but mine used to be fittingly red.

So give up your robot body and get back your troll body if you can.

I'm usually a rustblood. A friend of mine who was a blue blood designed the robot, so it kind of makes sense that it's blue I guess.

I'll ask. This place can get pretty fickle.
