[ It’s been a very long week for Miku. The room behind her is spartan and bare, since she hasn’t found it in her to ask about decoration yet, trying to absorb her new status. She is very pale, with dark brown hair bundled behind her head in a massive bun, a face framed by thick fringe, and from the way her brown eyes keep looking away from the camera, quite nervous.

Introductions, after all, are always so scary.

Her hands are clasped together, thumb rubbing over the joint of her pinky over and over as she tries to think of what to say. The Legion ring catches the light, and she bites her lip for a moment before taking a breath and setting her narrow shoulders straight.]


Good evening, my name is Miku Hinasaki... but I’m told I should call myself "Recall" now. My abilities are... retrocognition, mostly. I look forward to working with you.

[She bows politely and straightens up again, then smiles a little.]

I’m... not sure what else I should say? [The feed turns off, after a little fumbling on Miku's part.]

I'd been wondering if you'd been born one or if you'd had to work hard to become that way.

[turntex]

i work hard at this shit
im like a goddamn world class athlete training for the asshole olympics
do roboticans get born or made i genuinely have no idea

[legionnpcs]

We start off as Lego concepts and get built up from there.

[turntex]

well no wonder some people are scared of yall
legos are a creation of satan himself meant to strike unsuspecting innocents with unspeakable pain
innocents with fleshy limbs and nerve endings to feel pain with anyway
i bet youve never experienced the trauma of stepping on a lego barefoot

[legionnpcs]

And yet you people expose your children to the worst instruments of torture invented by sentient life as toys and playthings.

Who's the real monster?

[turntex]

hey i will never argue that humans arent fucking awful
were a race that has historically decimated itself over conflicts about complete bullshit like religion and gender and race and sexuality and only survives because we breed like fuckin rabbits
if its any consolation the human race got fucked where i come from and there were only nine of us left total
four if you dont count the ones we got from alternate apocalyptic universes

[legionnpcs]

Was the remaining planet made of Legos?

[turntex]

there was no remaining planet
i mean im guessing as much anyway
earth got pretty generously peppered with meteors and at least one of them was the size of like texas or australia or some other geographical comparison that doesnt really mean anything to anyone beyond oh shit thats big
i didnt really hang around to see the aftermath
