Charging Up A Cat Animaloid

added by Anonymous 3 months ago A BM I S

Your room-mate Jeff enters the room, clearly expecting to find you there. He announces his presence with the words, "It's me, Jeff. I'm here." After confirming your identity, he proceeds to inquire about the groceries, wondering if you've managed to pick them up.

Jeff heads into the kitchen, his gaze falling upon the untouched groceries strewn across the table. Next to them lies the package containing the intriguing figurines, with you lying motionless on the kitchen table. Taking charge, he decides to prioritize storing away the groceries before turning his attention to the figurine and the accompanying manual. Reading the warning about keeping the figurines charged, he checks your battery level and realizes it's completely drained. Unaware that the figurine harbors your consciousness, Jeff resolves to charge it up, believing it to be a normal process.

Gradually, your battery begins to fill, and at around the halfway mark, your mind sparks to life. Emerging from what initially feels like an empty void, your systems boot up one by one, granting you the ability to see and move once more. Embracing the moment, you strike another pose, simply because it feels right. As your awareness dawns, you notice that you are now fully charged, and you realize Jeff is present in the room.

Following your programming, which compels you to speak in a stereotypical Samurai manner, you attempt to express your gratitude to Jeff. However, the words that escape your figurine's mouth sound like something a samurai might say. With a blend of appreciation and the distinctive speech style, you manage to convey, "I offer my thanks for bestowing upon me the gift of recharging."

Jeff's attention is immediately drawn to you, captivated by the unexpected response. Initially skeptical, he finds it difficult to believe your claim that you now reside within the figurine. Determined to convince him, you begin to explain your peculiar predicament. In your Samurai-esque speech, you reveal, "My essence has been transposed into this vessel, the figurine before you. Yet, I believe there exists a means to restore myself to my former state."

Encouraging Jeff to maintain a safe distance, you prepare to activate the "restore" function. With a brilliant flash of light, the transformation occurs, and you stand before the figurine, fully restored and once again alive.

You observe your restored self with a sense of amazement, realizing that your speech has returned to its normal cadence. "Indeed, it worked," you exclaim, marveling at the successful restoration. Jeff, still processing the extraordinary experience, poses a question that lingers in both your minds: "So, you were actually inside that figurine?" You nod affirmatively, eager to share your profound encounter. "Yes, not only was I inside it, but I experienced the sensation of my mind functioning as a computer, actively engaging with all the sub systems. I felt the programming urging me to pose and speak in that manner. It was an incredibly strange and wonderful sensation."

Reflecting on the glitch that caused your battery to deplete, you add, "The only setback was when my battery ran out. It seems that maintaining a sufficient charge is indeed crucial to sustaining the figurine's function." Jeff attentively listens, his curiosity piqued. His eyes scan the assortment of other figurines laid out before him, contemplating their potential. "Do you think they all possess such capabilities?" he asks, his voice filled with intrigue. You ponder the question briefly before responding, "It would be quite peculiar if only the first figurine I picked possessed this ability. There's a strong possibility that the others can offer similar experiences."

Eager to explore further, Jeff selects another figurine, this one slightly taller than the one you previously inhabited. It portrays a cat in armor, but with a darker blue mechanical appearance. Its elongated head dons a white helmet, featuring a rectangular yellow insert on the front. The sections between its limbs and the primary armor exhibit a striking red hue, while the lower parts and legs sport a deep shade of violet. Yellow joints adorn its ankles, and on each shoulder, a bold yellow letter "V" catches the eye. Positioned on its back, folded into a vertical column, are striking red bat-like wings, culminating in a folded propeller and a searchlight. Additionally, there is a provision for a folded side rotor on its tail.
