All of the Inanimate Insanity AI AU eye colors!

...I will make one for BFDI, as I already made one for the non-canon AIB ones.

Well, at least there was an update, even if it was smaller than usual!

Christmas Miracles ~ The II Christmas 2023 Story that was.. very late.

The first major thing I posted that was very delayed!! And not a moment sooner, now Series 3 has been officially revealed!

And the reveal that something happened during April Fools of last year, when the blog wasn't active. It was a silly joke, back when Series 1 was the only Series.. Team Dream Island was just starting out. The main project of theirs (The BFDI AI's) hadn't started yet.. but eventually there was Series 1 of that, and then 2.

During the working of Series 3, David decided to pull a prank on the other employees by giving Nickel his BFDI personality. Which if you don't know, is the goobiest goober! ...Until uh, Gelatin comes along, that is.

And that's the context you get from that! It's also how he learnt that there were more than just the one PC he lived on. Also, due to their being no roll-backs for the new Nickel.. a glitch occurred. Where both Nickel's exist in the same body. The goober's eyes are brighter, while the Nickel we know has darker eyes. And he's kept this secret other personality since then! At least Bomb knows too.

Right, this has derailed for too long! Here is the long awaited Christmas story of 2023!

Tonight was Christmas Eve. And of course, someone was awake. Carol had been convinced to stay up a little longer by Tea Kettle to make sure everything's ready for the big day tomorrow. Especially after Carol wrote a new line of code for Bomb, by suggestion of her friend David.

Mixing two personalities.. it makes her concerned about Bomb's safety, but David reassured her that if it fails they can just have Tobias use Bomb's rollback file and well... roll it back!

"Are you sure you guys are ready?" Carol asks nervously. She still wasn't sure if she should introduce them tomorrow or to hold it off a bit longer. "What's with the concern? We'll be fine!" Cabby tells Carol.

"She's probably just worried something will go wrong tomorrow." The Floor says, appearing on screen next to Cabby and Silver Spoon. Silver let out a yelp and jumped in surprise at The Floor's sudden appearance. Before calming down and coughing to himself, pretending as if he wasn't scared at all.

"Cabby's right though.. we'll be fine tomorrow!" Silver Spoon says. "Yeah! If anything happens, you guys have me..." Clover says shyly, appearing nearby Silver Spoon. He expected her though, since he saw her out the corner of his eye. Perhaps it was time after all..

-------------------------------------------------------

Carol logged onto the computer and loaded up IIAI.exe, and selected Version 1 and Version 2. While it was fully loading the program, Carol finalized the 'Gift Programs'. Hitting the enter key on her keyboard, she watches as IIAI.exe finishes loading. It loaded into Hotel OJ, where there was a large Christmas tree.

Everyone else was asleep nearby it. Because of that, they couldn't see Yin-Yang approaching them with an airhorn alongside Bow. They both simultaneously used it to wake everyone else up (which just led to Yang getting elbowed by Knife). While Carol watched Yang argue with Knife (with Yin apologizing profusely), she also saw that everyone else was getting up.

"Did you have to wake us up this early Bow..?" Marshmallow asked groggily. "Yes!! Maker is online and IT'S CHRISTMAS!!!" Bow shouts excitedly. Everyone else realized and went to go start waking up properly. OJ waves hello to them from the kitchen, already having been awake alongside Paper, Pickle and Taco. Nobody knew where Bomb was though.

"So.. what should we do after breakfast?" Lightbulb asks curiously.

"Well, presents, for one." Marshmallow replies.

"Omg, we know that!" Salt shouts from another room. "Yeah! Isn't that what Christmas is all about?" Pepper also shouts from another room.

Test Tube sighs to herself. Did she and Fan not explain to them a week ago that Christmas isn't just about presents..?

Regardless, after breakfast everyone has gathered around the Christmas Tree for their presents. Still with no sign of Bomb. Nickel was the first to notice this, and walked away to a mirror.

"Hey uh... shouldn't we go check on him?" He asks himself, his eyes brighter. His eyes darken to their usual color again as he sighs. "I'll go look, just stay quiet. We don't want everyone freaking out that you're still here." He says. He replies with an 'okie-doke!' in a cheerful tone before walking to Bomb's room. It was.. a trek to say the least. Bomb's room was on the other end of a hallway, probably so nobody could try and blow him up.

After approaching Bomb's door, Nickel went to go knock on the door, but stopped when he heard.. talking. Sounded more like freaking out internally to him. So instead of walking away, Nickel knocked on the door. He heard a yelp, before shuffling to the door. It opened to reveal a nervous Bomb, his eyes went from a dark maroon to a brighter maroon. "Nickel.. did you ask Maker to make me like your other half?" Bomb asks.

It was odd to not hear a stutter at all. Let alone the brighter eyes in general. Well, if it was anyone else, it would be odd. But this is Nickel! He's gone through this before as well. "Golly! Did the Maker give you a personality?" He asks, eyes going to a brighter color again. Bomb groaned, before replying "I'm trying to talk to the other Nickel right now!"

Nickel rolls his eyes, and they darken. "Well sorry Bomb! He was trying to help." Nickel then looks to his left and right, before whispering "Also, keep quiet about him. We don't want to freak everyone else out."

Bomb just gives him a nervous thumbs up. "W-Well, wouldn't everyone notice that I'm suddenly not stuttering AND acting like someone else?" he asks.

Nickel chuckles. "I'm pretty sure everyone would be happy to see a personality! OJ and the Maker have been trying to make one for years now, and look! You got a personality now, so it means you got your wish!" he says.

Bomb exits the room alongside Nickel. He gazed at himself in the mirror, before sighing. "I guess everyone would be happier now..."

Nickel and Bomb return to the others, who were waiting on them. Carol had made a bigger present spawn. She also whispered to it to "Not spoil the surprise"... is there something alive in there?

"Hey guys, I found Bomb." Nickel says. Bomb sheepishly waves hi. "Sorry I hid in my room.. I got so worried about what everyone would think about me that I didn't want to leave!"

Everyone reacted by gazing at Bomb in shock. Nobody spoke for a bit, aside from an awkward cough from Nickel. Finally, someone spoke to break the silence. "So.. you, like, have a personality now?" Salt asks. "Pretty much." Bomb replies. "Let's not dwell on that right now! We got everyone here and we can do presents now!" Pepper shouts, being very excited to open her gifts.

And open gifts they did! From more books for Baseball to read, to a lot more science stuff for Test Tube. It was smiles all around as everything they asked for from the Maker was fulfilled all at once. And now there was the biggest gift of them all under the tree. "Go ahead, OJ. Like we rehearsed." Carol says. OJ clears his throat before speaking.

"It is with great honor that I, OJ, open the final gift for today. I warn that you be nice to them, since they have just gotten here. And uh.. I forgot the rest but you get the idea." OJ says. He then holds onto the ribbon holding the present together. "From the bottom of Maker's heart... Here is Series 3!"

OJ pulls the ribbon, which unwraps the present. Everyone watches with anticipation as it... almost stops midway through. OJ stares at the present, unsure why it stopped unwrapping. Before a hand reaches out and taps the ribbon, causing it to open fully. Beholding all of them was a blueberry, purple candle, tea kettle, lifering, file cabinet, blue goo, silver spoon and clover. The Floor was also there, already nearby Nickel and Bomb.

"Sorry! I think the present was about to glitch before we were revealed." The clover says with a nervous smile. Lightbulb grins. "New friends!! Omga, hi!!!"

The newcomers were taken aback by Lightbulb's energetic outburst. However, the candle calmed down quickly. And the goo bounced in joy. "Hooray! We are finally here!" The goo says.

"My, that could have gone poorly!" The silver spoon says with a scoff. The blueberry rolls their eyes. "At least I didn't touch it..."

"Guys, we haven't introduced ourselves yet!" The lifering shouts.

"He's right, we are being very rude right now!" The teakettle also shouts.

Everyone quiets down so that way OJ can introduce Series 3 to both Series 1 and 2. "So, I want you to introduce yourselves in any order you want."

The goo bounces in joy, wanting to go first. "My name is Goo! Nice to meet you all!"

The file cabinet snickers to herself, before eyeing up Test Tube. "I see there's another smart one amongst us.." Before going back to focusing on everyone else. "I'm Cabby! If you need any information, I'm your girl."

The candle calmly smiles towards everyone. "I am Candle.. If you ever need to find your balance, you can consult me at anytime.." She says.

"Is it my turn yet?" The silver spoon asks, annoyed that he has not introduced himself yet. "I am the regal prince, Silver Spoon. I demand respect from all of you, right now!" He says.

"Maker I'm pretty sure that isn't his personality..." OJ whispers to Carol.

Carol shrugs. "I just went with what David said." she whispers.

"Well, my name is Lifering! I'm always going to be here to save lives!" Lifering says, introducing himself enthusiastically.

"My name is Tea Kettle, and I love what you have done with the place!" TK says with a smile. "Thank you! Maker made most of it with my help!" OJ replies.

"I love that everyone is getting along already!" The clover said with a gentle smile. Before realizing she's up next with an 'oh!', and giggling. "My name is Clover! I can share my luck with all of you if you like."

Nickel mutters "Keep your cursed magic to yourself...", before replying to himself (albeit very quietly) "Be nice! I'd like the luck too!".

"I guess I am going second to last..." The blueberry says, sighing to himself. "I am Blueberry... It's nice to meet all of you, even if you may not get along with me..."

"Talk about death of a party." Trophy says with an eye-roll, before being elbowed by Knife. "Not the time!" Knife says under his breath.

"Weeeeeeell since everyone else went!" The Floor said, suddenly teleporting nearby OJ and the other Series 3-ers. "I'm the Floor! But you can call me Floory! I think that's everyone by the way." He says.

OJ nods. "Yup, that's everyone!" ...Only to find that everyone else was chatting it up with the newcomers. Both he and Carol looked on towards everyone else getting along with the newbies with a soft smile. "I guess this really was a Christmas miracle..." says OJ. "Yeah..." Carol replies.

Legacy Ask Seven

"The limbs of the objects were drawn that way to be simplistic. The code for the limbs is very complex, made to provide movement and pose-ability for the object." Carol takes a moment to collect her thoughts. "Since I'm no longer the only coder anymore, I usually lend the limbs codes (and I guess base object codes) to Robert. I'd let David be the only coder, but knowing him he'd just add dumb stuff.. like stick-figures for example."

A message appears through AIM. It was from the user stickfigurepro.

[stickfigurepro]: Carol you wound me! ;m; [stickfigurepro]: I made the limbs for Firey and Match! [stickfigurepro]: I don't just make stick-figures, because that would be boring!

"...Well, I could provide a link to our team. But the blog it is tied to isn't open to the public just yet." Carol sighs. "I'd love to link it! But you have to wait until after Christmas (or the day of)! Then, I can link it."

[iiaiau]

Legacy Ask Six

Bow: Yeah uh... what is this ask referring to? Marshmallow: If its a joke, I'm not getting it. Apple: Is this asker insulting me..? Marshmallow: No! No Apple. I'm sure they didn't mean to! Bow: Its probably, like, a joke. 

(Taco is asleep! So she couldn't answer. If its a joke, it would fly over her head.)

The First Six - A Prologue of sorts for II AI

Heya! This was the first Literature uploaded onto the DeviantArt account InanimateAI! This is put under Legacy Ask, which is just code for "Legacy content from the DA".

This doesn't mean the DA account is closing down! I'm keeping it up because it's decently popular on there. Like.. why else would I have Legacy Asks in the first place if it wasn't?

Somewhere, someone was typing at their computer. Their boss had just gotten word that an employee was staying behind to continue their own 'personal assignment'. Said boss, with blonde hair wrapped into a ponytail (with a dark green scrunchie) and tan skin was walking into the room.

Everyone wore the same uniform, just given their own color. Be it the black 'Second Rankers' that came before them, their boss's unique dark green one to show his status, and the white 'Low Rankers' that are more.. recent.

"Why aren't you heading home? It's almost Midnight." Her boss said matter of factly. She turns to face her boss, the pink glass on her white glasses glinting when she did. "Oh, Cobs! I was uh.. putting in the finishing touches on my project!" She says.

This is Carol, one of the new hires (marked as 5C, joining at the same time as another employee, Stephen (marked 5S)), also called.. The Maker. Because she liked to make things. Be it gizmos, gadgets, widgets.. and now AI. She had black hair, pulled into a ponytail with a pink band. She was wearing a previous employees black coat (they were marked 4S, apparently) over her pink sweater, black skirt, and black dress shoes. Her skin was a light tan, with mahogany eyes gazing at her boss in surprise.

"Your project?" Cobs asks, curious about this 'project' Carol was working on. She gets up, and pushes her chair slightly away from her. When Cobs didn't get it, she gestures for him to sit down. "I'll load them up now! I already made 6 of them so far!" Carol says with a smile. She types something on the computer, and loads up a program.

There was light orange grass forming into the program, with an orange sky and fluffy, light orange clouds joining with it. It wasn't much, but it kept them from falling through the ground when the world spawned in. She types a little more, and a door appears and opens up. "Hey guys, sorry that took a bit! But look, my boss is here!" Carol says to the AIs inside the black void through the door.

The first to peek through was a glass of orange juice with black arms, legs, eyes and mouth. His pupils were marked as 'Orange Rind' in the code. He looked around in awe.

"Move OJ! I wanna see too!" Someone rudely shouts. OJ enters the area, exiting from the door, as someone pokes their head through the door. They were a salmon colored balloon with black arms, legs, eyes and mouth. This one's pupils were marked as 'Light Salmon'.

"Balloon, be nice! And keep moving, everyone wants to see this too!" A soft voice spoke. After Balloon moved away from the door and into the foreground, four more objects exited out from the door in a single-file line. Or tried to. "MOVE!!" A gruff voice shouts. Three of them were kicked out of the door and faceplanted into the grass. One of them was a white marshmallow with black arms, legs, eyes and mouth. Their pupils were marked as 'Softest Pinkers'. Another was a piece of loose-leaf paper with black arms, legs, eyes and mouth. Their pupils were marked as 'Baby Blue', an actual color like the first two. The last one was a lightbulb with black arms, legs, eyes and mouth. Their pupils were marked as 'Bright Eyes'.

The last object through the door looked very annoyed. They were a pocket knife with black arms, legs, eyes and mouth. Their pupils were marked as 'Harvest Moon', a red color of sorts. Carol does a 'ta-dah' motion with her hands in front of the computer. Meanwhile, her boss stares at the computer, dumfounded at the AIs now staring at the screen. "Maker, can you tell us where we are?" The orange juice asked. Carol hesitates for a few moments, seeing her boss not look too impressed afterwards. "Well.. what do you think?" She asks nervously.

Cobs thinks to himself for a few moments. The possibilities were endless with AI.. and one of his employees was testing the technology behind his back! Impressive. Reminds him of 4. "Can you make more?" Cobs asks. Carol looks surprised at his response, but smiles. "Sure!" She says. She looks at her computer with a curious look in her eyes. "Well, do you guys want more friends?" She asks.

"Can you answer my previous question first?" The orange juice asks. "It's your new home! Get comfy." She says, not missing a beat.

"Sure, I'd want more friends Maker!" The marshmallow says with a smile. "Eh, as long as they aren't as fragile as the previous ones you made, I'm down for more people." The pocket knife says with a shrug. "Do whatever, I know they won't like me anyways!" The balloon said with a huff. "I'm sure we'll find someone who'll like you!" The loose-leaf paper said to the balloon with a smile, who just rolled his eyes in response.

Meanwhile, the lightbulb had been listening to the conversation. Friends... she's been lonely since everyone else was focused on themselves. That's honestly what she needs! Friends! She smiles at the Maker, timid eyes and all. "I.. I'd really want a friend." She says.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And thus, in the days, weeks and months to come, more AIs were made. More friends, as Carol promised her creations. And even now, in the most recent time period we find ourselves in.. Carol's made more friends.

On another computer, adjacent to the ones containing Series One and Two, was another Series of AIs. Carol was checking on them to see if they were ready.

"Hi guys, it's going to be Christmas in a few weeks. Are you guys ready to meet them when it's time?" She asks.

The blob of goo and four-leaf clover smile up at the Maker and nod (Goo to the best of his abilities). Everyone else responded in agreements of sorts.

"How much more ready can we be?" The Floor asked. "As ready as you guys can be!" Maker says with a smile.

These AIs.. no, children. These children of her's are ready to have more friends in the coming weeks.

Legacy Ask 5

Paper: "While those two are distracted, Series Two has a more cellphone based design for their phones. Meanwhile, since we came before them, we have flip-phones that have the same capabilities, just in a more smaller form!" OJ: "I mean.. if we didn't have them, then how else would we be able to contact the Maker when the program is turned off on her end?"

[iiaiau]

Legacy Ask 4

Sooo... this was a video instead of a comic.

I did that because the comic version was becoming too long. And at the time, I didn't want to do long comics.

...Aka I was being lazy that day. Oh well! It's over here!

[iiaiau]

Legacy Ask 3

Carol: "If... If this is referring to to main series, please remember that the AIs are not like their canon counterparts, for the most part." *she looks confused* "Otherwise, Sloppy, I have no idea what you are talking about." *she shrugs* "Sorry. But I will consider giving Bow the knowledge to play violin if she so wishes!"

[iiaiau]

Legacy Ask 2

Paintbrush: "What's up?" Lightbulb: "I and my friends are making another version of the zoo from months ago!" Paintbrush: "Cool?" (Thoughts: Oh paint, I hope that goes better than last time.)

[iiaiau]

Legacy Ask 1

(Yes, Lightbulb's is intentionally hard to understand. She's rambling, don't mind her. She'll calm down when she forgets what she was rambling about! ...Hopefully. ~OJ)

Baseball - "Why 5 bucks?" Nickel - "Cause I got to get past the Chocolate Tax everyone's been talking about!" Baseball - "First of all, that was something that Trophy and Yin-Yang made up." Nickel - "Still doesn't mean I wouldn't use the five bucks if it wasn't for the fact were on hard times!" Suitcase - "For... for chocolate?" Balloon - "Suitcase I don't think he's gonna stop talking about it anytime soon." Baseball - "Even though it isn't real and is just a rumor!" Nickel - "WE ARE ON HARD TIMES, BASEBALL, HARD TIMES!!" *he storms off, having gotten 5 bucks from the Maker)*

An Update: By Paintbrush and Lightbulb

"A bit of spoilers, but the group shot became bigger. BUT! We are currently getting to know the newcomers still, and plus it isn't Christmas yet."

"Aw! Can't we get an early reveal?"

"...I mean, sure? We can show the origin story on Christmas. Just know that it is spoilers for the events on the DeviantArt."

(The blog's timeline is a bit funky here. On DA it's a little more uniform. We also may be having an event here a week from now when the blog officially goes public. Yes this means Series 3 is available for early access. ~Maker)

Included in this screenshot is Series 1, Series 2, and Series 3.

Series 3 will be released on DA on Christmas Day, 2023!

"Welcome to the Tumblr Version!!" (From Taco)

We are so happy to welcome you to the Tumblr Version of our Blog! We have so much for you guys to do.. I suppose?

I mean, you can still Ask us Questions, Give us Commands, and even draw Art of Us. That's always been there since day 1.

Maker made a new set of AIs on another computer, mostly because her client wanted her to. These guys are only available on this Blog, and that makes it exciting!

Here are the Rules, read them before you do anything else. Here is the first Bios Page, and the second Bios Page! And here's a third one! And a fourth (not really one, but idc)!

Oh yeah, and this version is in Open Beta. So stuff may change in the future (like maybe new characters)! Have fun!
