11. covered in confetti

Knuckles tapped the wooden door.

Tonk. Tonk.

Silence.

Tonk. Tonk.

More silence.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Peri opened the door to be met with a very pouty Missy Chievous. Her face and hair was covered in sparkly shreds of paper, glitter, sequins, and everything else shiny under the sun.

"Wha-"

"Ester shot a confetti cannon at me, and now I need help plotting my revenge.

Me: I like these two.

TWST OCs Dream Worlds pt.5

Ignihyde and Diasomnia edition

Under the cut because spoilers

Due to the curse Malleus cast that has enveloped all of Sage’s Island, everyone is sleeping.

Li Feng Jiang - Li Feng's dream world is not much different than the normal. It seems just like the real world, but there are minor changes. He has more friends that he plays games with now.

Caius Luna, Xavi Luna, and Varian Luna - The triplets would actually share a dream world. The world they want? It would be one in which they have a better family relationship. Their parents are more present in their lives, and they are able to spend more time together. Caius, Xavi, and Varian get along better in the dream world. While there is still some fighting among them, they get along a lot better. They spend more time around one another unlike in the real world. It is as if there was never a gap between them to begin with.

Haoyu Yang - Haoyu's dream world would be one where he is surrounded by family. There are no rules to follow, and he is free to choose what he wants to do. He wants it to last forever.

Peri Eclipse - In his ideal world, Peri has a happy life with his family back in Briar Valley. It is a peaceful life. It is not what people would expect from him, but it is the kind of life that he desires to have.

Ester Thorn - Ester's ideal dream world shows him having a great time with the ones he sees as family. He gets along with all his dorm members, and he will spoil them rotten. He wants nothing but the best for everyone. It is a perfect world where there was never a war between the fae and humans. They are at peace with one another. How could someone hate this?

Xuě Lóng Yang - Xuě Lóng's dream world is one where he never had an illness. He never had gotten that injury to his hand. He doesn't have his family and friends constantly watching over his shoulder to make sure he is alright. Everything is perfect, and nothing has ever gone wrong. But it all feels wrong. Xuě Lóng realizes it is a dream rather quickly and he is going to try to do whatever he can to escape it, even if it means he has to end up fighting Malleus.

Perihelion Freed

My apologies to the original poster to whom I'm going to respond--I didn't catch your name or reblog your post when it came across my dash because I didn't expect to keep coming back mentally to your stance on Perihelion, free will, and the University's potential blind spot between their ship and their... discrete... work, out in the borderlands. I don't even know if it was a recent post or something that someone I follow reblogged. If you find me, hi!

Another blogger posited that Perihelion doesn't have free will, that things are hard-coded out of its mental architecture, and that the Newtideland crew may be hypocritical for using basically an enslaved ship to free basically slaves.

I'm not sure whether this was "a take on the idea" or whether it was "this is canonical and fucked up," so I apologize if you (cool previous blogger) were just investigating the concept!

It stuck with me, though, the idea that Perihelion (as opposed to The Perihelion, the ship+mind=entity that is akin to body+mind=soul) may or may not have free will, and how there's a lot more to investigate in the interactions if it doesn't, and the crew is either oblivious or "one must imagine Perihelion happy," and in a state of grace, as I believe the blogger mentioned.

Sure, there's a lot of mileage in "even the best have their blindspots," and the edges where what Peri does with and for Murderbot might run against its programming, and whether it would adjust its programming or whether it even could contemplate doing so.

But from my recall of the text, I don't believe the coding and architecture for enslavement is present in Peri.

It makes the choice to let MB on board because it IS bored: it is capable of boredom; if someone were to design an entity with specific reactions and capabilities, both the Bad Designers and Good Designers would skip the capacity for boredom and tedium, wouldn't they? To do otherwise is either pointless or cruel.

I guess you could say that boredom is the other side of the curiosity that Peri needs to help its crew and students with class and scientific endeavors, but that gets into the weeds about what is and is not programmable or required for specific emotions; we can't guarantee that you need one to have the other.

Peri chooses to accept MB, rather than actually being enticed and/or ignorant like a regular bot pilot. It chooses to help MB customize itself, messes with its recycler logs, and forges its captain's signature at least once; I can't imagine even the most Star Trek utopian creator, if able to lock in specifics to the point that an AI has personality and goodwill but not free will, would leave in operating code that would permit that sort of gross overstep (not that it was morally wrong, but it's something no one ever contemplates ART is capable of because--it shouldn't be?)

It lies by omission when it doesn't relate what KIND of construct MB is even when it chooses to tell its crew. giving MB privacy and opportunity that an enslaved AI might not be able to do (and after it went to the effort to change its logs, which makes me think it's choosing also to tell port authorities one thing and then choosing again to verbally tell its favorite people other things). It has a "debris deflection system" which comes off to me as... "using the label as robotically an as possible as another lie of omission" BECAUSE its intentions are beyond the scope of what it "should" be capable of doing/thinking... if it was a supercharged but enslaved AI.

The tabletop game Eclipse Phase has "AGI" that have to grow and be developed like people in order to BE proper people (metapossibly to lighten some of the strangeness between PC and player, since if you grow up in a simulation, you've got more in common with your player...).

There's nothing I can recall in TMB to indicate this is the case--we know MB is Athena, formed fully-shaped from cloned tissue, parts, and pre-trauma, but MB has no idea what ART is or how it could be the way it is--MB considers at one point that it might be a construct, but the vibe I get from ART is way too... glassily alien, sometimes, for human tissue.

What if... Newtideland laid down the basic code and parameters of "this is a person," maybe yes, seeded in some "curiosity," or "willingness to figure things out," but maybe no more than any kid starts with parents' nature and nuture to shape their own trellises...

And then they presented the thing-that-would-be-Peri with options, maybe even classes, and it coasted through History of Economy because this is a utopia, damnit, and didn't find much to grab its attention in... Inventory Management, but then.

Then it slips into a small drone ship completely covered in "student driver" stickers and it spreads its stubby sensors out to encompass... everything. And it moves, and the more it moves the more there is to move through, and it feels this sense of rightness.

It comes back, and a kid, human classmate, asks it what's it like out there and through Peri's eyes, but you don't have eyes--. It explains, and the kid asks a question that young-will-be-Peri doesn't know how to answer. They look it up together, and over time and all and once (as you might find in a sim) it has synergized its own career, its own goal and passions.

I posit that Perihelion has free will, serves WITH its crew rather than for its crew, and that its happiness and pleasure in its position and life are genuine, as they can only be if it can choose otherwise. We can conjecture a world in which the designer could be so granular in programming that ART is capable of all it can do while also unable to do what is locked out, and ignorant of the painful irony of using enslaved labor to free enslaved labor (which, again, is valid as an interpretation! ) but I think it is... important, that there might be a kinder, more star-spangled world, if the University comes from a world in which even bots truly, actually have freedom that MB doesn't see even after getting Preservation Station.

The Perihelion MUST have free will because

la invención de Maggie Triana

BLOGNOVELA 2003

L.

(mayo es ahora)

Es que tomaron el boulevard rojo.

Es que no había luz.

Es que faltaba el agua.

Es que llegó Maggie Triana bajo el eclipse

(cabello rojo, pestañas extra largas, uñas a medio pintar)

y contó su peor sueño y su mejor pesadilla.

Es que se abrió el abrigo —negro, de peluche, demencial— y se sonrió tres veces con el ojo izquierdo.

Es que recargó la cabeza sobre un hombro y, de regreso al mundo, exclamó: esto es arándano (aunque en realidad era Eau de Cartier).

Es que se señaló la boca.

Es que dijo: bésenme.

Y todas obedecieron —gustosas, sumisas, celestes.

Es que, como lo he anotado, no había luz.

Es que era jueves pero a todas les urgía ya que fuera sábado. Y Maggie insistía en contar —las manos en espiral, la boca de vela en alta mar, la rodilla flexionada— su peor sueño (el hombre que atravesaba el cuerpo de la mujer para extraerle el músculo ése que, dijo, algunos llaman corazón) y su mejor pesadilla (la mujer que, en justo intercambio, atravesaba el cuerpo del hombre para extraerle el ése que, repitió, algunos llaman corazón).

Es que habían leído a Butler, Cixous, Wittig, Peri Rossi, Pizarnik, Acker, Stein.

Y las mareaba el humo de los cigarrillos de clavo. Djarum Black: to enhance your smoking pleasure.

Y nadie hablaba en el Café de Todos.

Es que la mantarraya descendía —deliciosa, omnipotente, cándida— con esa lentitud casi doméstica, esa lentitud de otro modo mitológica, hasta la piel misma del océano.

Es que Amaranta Caballero caminaba descalza y ecuménica sobre su propia lengua.

Y Abril Castro se volvía una pez-hadilla sobre la almohada.

Y Maggie Triana declaraba, con precisión profética: cubrir de árboles el bosque. Bosquejar una mujer. Circundar una mujer. Cubrir de bosques una ciudad, bosquejar una mujer, circundar los árboles.

Y Lucina Constanza guardaba silencio.

Y La Sumergida se acostumbraba poco a poco, aunque no sin torpeza y sin intolerancia, a su nueva condición de Emergida.

Todo esto dentro de la Ciudad Sin Nombre. Todo esto en un lugar sin luz, sin agua. Es que comieron uvas y pronunciaron las palabras muslo, codo, tráquea. Y también ésa que, Maggie volvía a decir, algunos conocen como corazón.

Es que no sabían de la piedad. Y no les interesaba hincarse. Es que los fáunulos tomaban su siesta.

Es que faltaba el agua.

Y se quedaron meditabundas frente a la pregunta ¿por qué no?

Es que era mayo.

Es que mayo es ahora.

Eclipse is Peri/Poof and that's finale. No explanation.

Doodles I've made last night.

Eclipse

Según los horóscopos este eclipse total de sol (el último del siglo veinte no favorece a nadie. Sin embargo, para las hormigas se trata solo de un día nublado.

Cristina Peri Rossi, «Aquella noche»

[twstrhythm]

8. Weapon of Choice(?)

For those that actively fight/have a need to own a weapon

Hello friend!~

As for weapons...

Ester has a claymore. He is surprisingly fast with it despite how slow the weapon is meant to be.

Peri fights with a battle ax. He is an unstoppable force.

[indigo-a-creeping]

I've been doing my taxes today. All done but not submitted - I want to go back and look again tomorrow, because they asked for a different health insurance form than I had so I think I need to redo that part, but other than that, super easy. I recommend FreeTaxUSA if you're looking. I started trying a couple others, and this is the best one I encountered.

Dentist last week, eye doctor next week, phone health screening tomorrow for top surgery... Peri's vet visit went well and his bloodwork is good this time around... I've started physical therapy for my foot pain, and it's going well. I need to make an appointment for air conditioner maintenance...

I'll be in St. Louis for about a week next month, seeing lots of people, going to the farmers' market, watching the eclipse... I'll keep staying with my parents because that way Peri can stay for free somewhere he knows. I'll plan on bringing back some tiny baby Japanese maples with me again, and hopefully they'll survive the trip better than last year.

Then by the time I get back home, I'll only have 3.5 weeks before top surgery! Love it!!

I talked to my petsitter, and she's happy to help me out with both trips, but I'm still hoping I can find a place for Peri to stay while I'm in SF because he'd be happier not being in the house alone all day. I have a couple people I can ask still, but I haven't talked to either of them in a while.

[corruptedbunny-multimuse]

Irep blinked, floating over to one.

"Eclipse?" Peri tilted his head. "Are you, like... both of 'em, or...?"

@deisbookofdemons

"Agh!" Foop yelped as he and Poof appeared in Superstar Daycare, the two magical babies looking around. "Oh, way to go. Now we don't know where we are!"

"Poof, poof!" The rounder baby pointed at Foop accusingly, his other hand on his side.

"Oh, yes, yes, it's my fault, I'm not saying it isn't. I'm merely saying it's your fault that it's my fault."

[musical-chick-13]

...Related to the long-ass thing I just posted, I realized that most of my favorite friendships are between male characters and female characters?
