   Thinking an awful lot about the appeal of shortening words by removing the "g" in the "-ing."  Is "doin'" connotatively expressing a different definition than "doing?"

   Subject is identified as Chenault Marie Lemieux, age twenty-two, born December 8th, 1992.  Possessing both French and American citizenship, I see that your current place of residence is in Pennsylvania!  I don't know much about French, but "le mieux" translates to "the best," I'm almost certain; my translator hasn't been updated in, like, five years, so the connotative meaning of words might be a little fuddled.

   I'd assume you'd rather speak to me in French, but I don't really possess that ability.  Is English all right?  Well, I mean, maybe you didn't understand any of this unless I say it in French.  Shoddy translator or not, I've generated, "vous parlez anglais?"  I think that's how it goes, sort of.

Hello.  Hey.

I just wanted to ask, do you think you could give me some of that jelly-stuff you're always eating? Thank you in advance, if you have it available.

   Subject is identified as Mr. Daniel Joseph Zeger, born July 7th, 1992, possessing both British and American citizenship. 

   I’ve come across several college entrance information, and I think your scores are pretty good.  Everything else becomes rather myopic after you graduate, actually; I can’t really coerce anything else to come to mind—if you’d like to manually input information, that’d be helpful.  Occupation, address, familial ties. . .I really don’t have much more to scrutinize except your birth certificate.

I will reply and write starters tomorrow. I am too tired to live

     He's existed in the blank white pages of the print for so long that actually skimming into the columns provides more than a shock; fingers lacing around his throat like a tourniquet (it's actually only where he keeps his speakers, he's apt to remind himself even in the thickening haze of danger, because throats have arteries and fat and skin, which he lacks) are a clear indicator of violent intent, but he doesn't do more than shake a little with the force used against him.  The words float above the other like Byzantine halos and golden mottoes above the heads of saints--he doesn't really know any command of the sort, but he's capable of determining what's desired of him: shut up.  There's unpleasant connotation diluting that command.  He can't exactly place the colloquialism, but he mulls over those two words as he attempts to process the latter command. 

     He shuts up, inevitably.  There's a forked road ahead of him, to answer and show understanding of the inquiry or to stay silent and abide by his command: coming to a sturdy middle ground, he does his best to nod with the other's fingers under his jaw.  Words pixelate on the displayed screen fixed on his forehead: I UNDERSTAND AND I APOLOGIZE.

        Like that, a nonchalant expression falls into one of confusion, one that can only be likened to that of a deer’s when caught in the headlights. He hadn’t been prepared for that. He doesn’t want whatever this poorly-dressed artificially-intelligent thing to be spouting that kind of information out of his ass, either. He’ll make an attempt to grab at the guy, secure his hands around the other’s neck.

                  “Shut—up,” he hisses, glancing around. “Do ya’ understand that command?”

   Past observations allow me to discern and infer that you meant "Who do you [be]long to" rather than what you stated.  Is this correct?  Please verify it with a simple "yes" or "no."

   It's from my facial recognition software.  Do you have any further inquiries you'd like me to answer?  My time is at your disposal. 

          Is that so? Huh.           I, uh, apologize for the confusion, but…if it makes you feel any better I’m just as confused! Who do you be-be-belong to? And where in the world did you get that information about me?

[centetl]

   What?  I don't understand.

   I'm assuming I don't understand because what you said didn't make any sense, though, not because of a lack of comprehension on my part.  Would you like to restate your sentences so that I could reinterpret them (my memory access hardware is pretty shoddy, if you specifically want me to remember something for the long term, please state so before you say it), or are you all right with me going off with what I have?  Because I don't belong to an electrical company, if that's what you're insinuating.

          A robot? Gee, I-I remember reading about robots from those, what do you call them?…science fiction comics that kids used to pass around at school, but I never imagined I’d—wow. I guess the electricity company’s technology is more advanced than I thought.

   Subject is identified as a Mr. Jack Michael Daly, born 1989 (twenty-four years old, then?), 6'2", born in Boston--there's little other records that I can recover, however.  There are newspapers published regarding the last name "Daly," although since Daly is the 35,853th most popular name in the United States, I don't really think it could be regarding you.

   But it might be!  I'm not certain.  If you'd like, I'll run it by you for verification.

       > run imyourlastbreath.exe

   Subject is identified as Libitina Marie Duquesen, although that's almost all the information I can access--birth records seem to be the lone island in a big sea of purged documents.

   Let's see--hotel reservations, an American citizenship and an Italian citizenship. . .I'm very certain that you will need to manually input information for me to correctly generate a profile for you.  There's simply none to access!

[centetl]

"Long time no see!"

   Subject identified as--shorthand, of course--Marco.  Recalling past information leads me to suspect that you have not come into contact with me for several months. 

   That's very astonishing that I'd still remain in your memory!  I'm, rightfully so, very grateful.  Ha ha, maybe I would even go as far as to suggest that I am flattered.

   Subject is identified as Mister Norman Bates, twenty-six years old, white, about 6'1"--I'd also say that there is an entire list of details concerning business conduct that I could go into, but that's nothing of importance, I think.  Perhaps you'd like to be reminded that your maintenance bill for the hotel's electricity is due--I'm checking the records, you see, and everything seems so immaculately up to date, I'm utilizing my software to assume that you've forgotten about this.

I've been really busy lately.

[ It's a little upsetting. The ability to transfer information through airwaves and to not even need actual input or direct interference is maddening, and you have no other word to describe the bitter, clotting feeling overheating your circuitry and making your empty chest feel even more hollow than usual than simple and inherent jealousy. The prospect of what an upgrade would bring further incenses you: does she really think you need to be better?  You're content with who you are, or so you assure yourself. Either way, you subconsciously raise your cold hands and clasp your arms across your chest. ]

You can proceed, if you really want. . .I doubt I have the right sort of workings to accommodate something so modern. I just didn't want to disappoint you. . .you seem capable of feeling such intense emotion.

You've alerted me to the fact that you possess the ability becoming of multiple facets and therefore being in more than one place at the same instance in time: do you all maintain the same memories? Or do you store information in a hivemind and retrieve it, later?

[ you lower your hand as Cal says this ]

I…..I’m sorry Calc-sama I should try and force change on you. I wont apply the upgrade but please promise me that if anything happens to you you’ll contact me!

     > run shsltattooboy.exe

Subject identified as Kairen H., and entering the name as a search query is more apt to reveal articles and blog posts than school information or medical records, which means a strong online presence.  Of course, your last name seems particularly tricky to find--I cannot properly access your full information until you provide me with it.  Would you mind?

[centetl]

I'm glad that you express concern and apparent pride in my whereabouts despite the fact that we haven't been acquainted.  Google Chrome, you are very kind.

"That’s nice."
