One concerted reading period later...
Re: Fic recommendations

Quote:
Now mind you, I haven't read Bubblegum Disaster, or if I have it's so long ago that I've forgotten that I have. But the thought occurs to me -- and I throw it out to you in utter ignorance of your long-term plans -- why does it have to be a master-slave relationship? Is there a plot reason why can't it be a negotiated symbiosis, a partnership?
Just something for you to muse on, either in the thread or privately...

Hardwired imperatives - 215 is a pure robot, and while its software limits are mostly fragged at this point after getting litterally blown to the four winds and reforming, the requirement for a linked partner to be protected at all costs and obeyed as exactly as possible within the first directive is inherent in the way its neural net is physically laid out. Basiclaly, it's the Three Laws of Robotics as applied to one and precisely one person, anyone else is judged only by their value to that one person's wellbeing.
Actually, I suppose 215 could pick up some personality traits from Sylvie, and rcover some of Priss's mannerisms as it reconstructs damaged files, and end up being something of a devoted freind type - but still not truly self-determining.
- CD, who was it who said "This is the price of freedom: Your last gasp of breath, drop of blood, ounce of courage... paid in advance?" For the sexaroids, it's all too appropiate.
