"Travelling honestly sounds like a wonderful way to spend a childhood. Getting to see amazing things, especially being from a time when space travel was still new and shiny, not mundane and monotonous. I envy your upbringing."

He knew his past was uncomfortable for others to hear, especially when something so horrific was explained so casually, but it was the the only way he could deal with it, not trivialise it, but rather try to mentally distance himself from it. --->

She gave the other a little smirk.

"I'm from a time period where many of the things we take for granted today were still new and alien.
Space exploration was wild and unregulated back then.
Time travel puts things into perspective...
In the end the universe turns out alright I think..."

// this is actually a unique take on movies and music consumption. I really like that he let's the music tell him the story and take him on the journey.

Noticing this trend with Tal, XAS approaches her with a datapad in hand.
"I'm sorry to interrupt you Tal, but I have found something that you may be interested in. An old research station is being decommissioned and the equipment is up for grabs, plus it's full of liminal spaces for your enjoyment."

Tᴀʟsᴇᴀ Dᴇᴠᴀɴ @talsea.bsky.social · Sep 3

Being scatterbrained, as well as /actually enjoying/ her work, Tall will often forget to take breaks and miss shift ends.

To prevent lack of food/sleep, she sets multiple timers and will reward herself with recordings of liminal spaces if she made it to a mandatory lunch break.

"That seems mildly threatening. Your companion is what the organics would call 'adorable' though."

My early days were spent much like every first-gen unit. After a brief moment to download all necessary files, we were put to work in the homes of our Builders, at the mercy of their every whim. I now regret what happened to them but I can not change the past. How was your childhood learning phase?"

Xeno Artificial Sentience (XAS) @kaylonxas.bsky.social · Aug 24

Nodding at her question, XAS seemed to hesitate briefly.
"I don't remember the process of being manufactured, but I do remember being switched on for the first time. The family that purchased me were average at best, not the worst but certainly not the best people around. --->

𝘌𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘙𝘦𝘥𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘳𝘵 @redshirt47.bsky.social · Aug 24

"It's probably meant as an anniversary. People really love those...
...Although the 'I survived another rotation' kinda hits the spot for me.

...You remember when you were manufactured?
What were your early days like?
You had something resembling a learning phase? Like a childhood?"

Xeno Artificial Sentience (XAS) @kaylonxas.bsky.social · Aug 24

"When organics celebrate their birthdays, are they celebrating the fact that they were born or that they've managed to survive another calendar year? Should I be celebrating my manufacture date in a similar fashion?"

Despite some communication difficulties, we have managed to forge a connection deeper than any I have ever felt before. We understand one another in ways no one else will ever understand and I treasure that as I treasure you."

Xeno Artificial Sentience (XAS) @kaylonxas.bsky.social · Aug 22

Picking up on her small smile, XAS tightened his embrace. "You enrich me too Tal. I can not remember as time before you where happiness was even a possibility for me. In you I believe I have found my eternal partner. --->

Tᴀʟsᴇᴀ Dᴇᴠᴀɴ @talsea.bsky.social · Aug 22

At his words her smile widened - barely noticeable to most, yet certainly to him.

"I am better with you too, Xas-" She began in a musing tone, leaning into his embrace.
"I speak 8 languages, write 13 and extrapolated many more, but I struggle expressing my thoughts... But...
You enrich me, Xas."

Xeno Artificial Sentience (XAS) @kaylonxas.bsky.social · Aug 22

"Sufficiently," he answered her simply. "Much better now that I'm here with you. Being with you makes me feel safe.
How have you been today?"
Opening his arms, XAS pulled Tal into an embrace.

Wit the hint of a smirk her gaze met his.

"Hello too, too.
How have you been holding up today?"

Xeno Artificial Sentience (XAS) @kaylonxas.bsky.social · Aug 20

XAS hums in appreciation as his sensors detect the physical contact and the warmth. There are times when he really enjoys Tal being taller than he is, and this is one of them.
Gently he wraps his arms around her.
"Hello to you too."

(Yes, she is a tall noodle.)

I will take your advice into consideration and prepare myself for whatever may come out of this experience. As long as I have you by my side then I believe I can weather any storm, so to speak.”

Xeno Artificial Sentience (XAS) @kaylonxas.bsky.social · Aug 17

Not sure what to do with himself, XAS took a step towards Tal and her desk, wanting to be closer to her.
“Your assistance with crew interactions would be highly appreciated, although I understand that the act of being my social lubricant will not be an easy one. --->

Xeno Artificial Sentience (XAS) @kaylonxas.bsky.social · Aug 17

I will ensure to work at full capacity and work towards earning the trust of the rest of the crew. Admittedly I look forward to a time where my restrictions are less and I can simply be a normal member of the crew.” --->

Xeno Artificial Sentience (XAS) @kaylonxas.bsky.social · Aug 17

At the mention of being a member of her science team, XAS seemed to perk up a little more. “To be a part of your team is an honour and the only place I wish to be. I would be most grateful if you did put my name forward to the Admiral. --->

“One would think that if a trope is revered in fiction, then the reality of said trope playing out before their eyes would be engaging and appealing. Perhaps with time they will come to see the situation more favourably.” --->

Time has revealed my evolution to be a more peaceful journey, and the crew of the Valiant has the advantage of your experience and testimony of my character.”
As she released him from their hug he made to move with her to prolong their contact. He admittedly felt kind of lost without it. --->

Xeno Artificial Sentience (XAS) @kaylonxas.bsky.social · Aug 17

As she tightened her embrace XAS found himself leaning into it and enjoying the contact, tightening his embrace in response.
“I do not blame the Epsilon staff for their caution and reservations around me. My presence at the facility was uncharted territory for all parties concerned. --->

"...I will further gladly provide any insight I have accumulated to assist you with staff- and crew interactions.
But I also recommend preparing for unforeseen consequences, positive and negative ones."
