a no-beef-to-anyone-who-does-this-it-just-bothers-me thing:

dear people making dating sims or romance stories and whatnot, i get why you do this and why this is an attractive plot device, but if you have a character where the premise is "they come to life and sapience suddenly/have a burgeoning consciousness, and the MC is the first person they see, and they are going to be a/the MC's Major Romantic Interest pretty much immediately, I am going to be questioning the ethics of this whole shebang all of a sudden and I will not be paying attention to the romance plot at all, sorry"

with an additional "this is even weirder and worse if the MC has an implicit position of power or authority over them, usually represented by the MC being more worldly and responsible for teaching them about the nuances of life, it feels really bizarre"

So, I've started reading the first book in Adam Diment's spy series. I mean, after hearing about the author's story, I was pretty damn curious. And, well...very 'everyone's felt that before, right?'.

jamie : oh wow, I get to start my co-pilot training ! this should be really fun ! ! I hope I get a really cool co-pilot who could share fun stories and wisdom n' maybe be my friend for life or perhaps ... parent figure? that'd be so nice. <:)

Murder Drones Questions

Alright, I’m just gonna go ahead and start by saying that yes, I love Murder Drones, and yes, I’ve been a fan of Glitch Productions before the channel even existed, (SMG4 gal over here) and yes, I am very willing to admit the series is not perfect in any way shape or form. I’m extremely fond of the world and the mysteries behind the characters and all that junk, so if you have any questions about Murder Drones then I will be very giddy about engaging with you! (Points discreetly at the ask box)

But I’m not here to talk about the story, oh no! I’m here to clarify a ton of really weird but understandable questions I’ve seen reaction channels ask a ton about the pilot episode! So. Yeah. That’s basically it.

So the first question I’ve heard being asked a lot is “Where the fuck do the babies come from and how do they mature??” I mean that’s kinda two questions but wtf.

To answer the first part of this question, we need to think about how these Worker Drones were even created in the first place and how they came to be. The answer to that? Simple. They were mass-produced via a generator of sorts. Idk how robotics work exactly and I know next to nothing about coding so don’t question how or why they were or would be mass-produced, but the intro/exposition sequence at the beginning basically solidifies this fact given the line “Yeah, we were treated in the name of windex…” And the shot of a huge line of Worker Drones in a factory.

How they mature is a completely different story. I think what they do is they upgrade their body, kind of like a transformers transformation sequence or a magical girl transformation. They activate some sort of neuron in their robo brain and change their body to match their age every 2-3 years. Or at least, that’s what I’m thinking they do. It could be something completely different tho but this is the option that makes the most sense to me.

Now obviously the Workers can choose to make a baby via the generators or they can make a fully grown drone. Because as we can clearly see in the first minute of the pilot, the mass-produced Workers are fully grown and mature even at birth. So the generator has options.

Why the humans decided to give these robots life, sanity, personalities, and an option to make babies?? Idfk. We’re humans, why do you think we did that?

Now for the next question: “Why does Uzi need a bandage? She’s a robot, she doesn’t bleed or feel pain.”

Which… I mean, fair, we don’t see any major deaths or scenes where the robots feel any pain before this clip, but this question still ticks me off. Because for one, we do see Uzi feel pain later on and throughout the rest of the series. It’s just harder for her as well as others to express they’re in pain because, you know, robots. But that doesn’t mean they can’t feel said pain. And the same can be said about her bleeding, because the Worker Drones do in fact bleed, but instead of red sticky warm bullshit like us, it’s black, inky, thick, gooey, icky crap. Aka oil. So there’s that.

Here’s another one! “Wait but she didn’t miss the first time. Why didn’t J just regenerate herself like how N did at the beginning?”

So for starters, lemme clarify this well-known fact by all Murder Drones fans. The Disassembly Drones have saliva that neutralizes their nanites, aka regenerates themselves. This saliva, similar to human biology, resides close to where their chest is. (I actually know nothing about human biology please berate me in the comments lmfao) In the first few minutes of the episode, when Uzi uses her new gun for the first time on N, she aims for the head because that’s where you’re usually gonna aim when shooting a gun. But since the saliva is in the chest area or just in the chest in general, it was able to spray itself back on N’s neck and regenerate the head, along with all the wiring and coding and stuff like that. Think of it like a movement-activated soap bottle in restaurant bathrooms. If the saliva compartment recognizes that a part of the body is missing, it will activate and remake that body part with itself.

This question is something I’ve been asking myself and I wanna write the potential answer down here for clarity, so you can skip this if you want since it’s not about the pilot episode.

(“If this is the case, how can the Murder Drones just put their body parts back together in certain sequences?” To this I say… idk. Maybe the saliva has multiple ways of functioning?? I have no real answer, so let’s just say the saliva is like hot glue or something idk.)

Here’s one final question because this shit is getting pretty long. “Wait a damn minute, I thought we already were on earth! Where the heck are we!?”

To answer this, you need to pay attention to the dialogue in the episode. “We are Worker Drones. Autonomous robots mining exoplanets for our interstellar company…”

Yeah. The Worker Drones mine exoplanets, which are smaller planets within our solar system that are similar to Earth and are habitual. So the planet we’re on in season 1 of Murder Drones is an exoplanet known as Copper 9. The name of the planet isn’t super duper relevant until later episodes where they have the name of the exoplanet in plain view, so all you need to know for now is that we’re on an exoplanet, not earth. Earth is dead.

Welp! That was actually pretty fun! I hope this was useful and helpful for future reference and for anyone still just getting into Murder Drones and having these exact questions. I’ll most likely make a part 2 to this for the other episodes if anybody wants that. (I mean I want that so…) I’ll quit stalling for now tho and let you carry on with your day. Thanks for reading, and have a great day/night!
