[What is Celestial A.I. and how does it work?]
People love their cars... but do you wish your car had a personality of its own outside of its mechanical quirks? Perhaps you want someone else to add to your list (or lack thereof) of people to talk to? Introducing Celestial A.I.! After filling out our intake form for what sort of personality you desire with your vehicle of choice, our team sets the parameters, builds the A.I. algorithm, and programs it to run on a custom mini PC that is no larger in dimensions than an Altoids container. After shipping out your install kit (or sending one of our techs to you), the PC is stored between the engine bay and dashboard, wired to the vehicle's battery and deck or multi-function display, and the array of sensors are put in each panel of the vehicle. Then install the eye-projector headlights, and you're all set! Your custom Celestial A.I. will greet you on your next startup. Our Advanced Kits allow you to wire in more capability to your vehicle, allowing it to control the steering, gas, brakes, and more, all autonomously. Celestial A.I. runs on a very low power draw, draining only a tiny fraction of battery even when the vehicle is not running. This allows your vehicle's A.I. to run without being turned on. With its own 'sleep mode' function on board, your vehicle's new A.I. program will be able to run as long as your battery has juice in it, and won't draw any power while "asleep!" We even provide updates over wi-fi connection as well.
[About the artist]
Hello! I'm new to the living vehicle scene, and after a bunch of research on what different ways they can exist, I decided to go for the A.I. route with Celestial. Why this name? Eh, I just like night sky/star themed stuff~ If you want to know my technique for my art... My current pics I have drawn are taken from IRL refs, digitized by tracing over the frame using GIMP, coloured, and then personalized with details of my own. They're the first pieces of art I've made that actually look half-decent, so as I practice and get a handle on this stuff, I plan to learn how to free-hand so that IRL references won't be necessary for starting points. Stay tuned!
[Do I RP?]
It seriously depends, and there are no promises.
If you make a comment asking/suggesting something regarding one of the characters in a post I make, I'll likely either answer ICly or OOCly intermittently. But if you specifically start your comment with [For *insert character*] (as an example, [For Hepatica], in brackets as you see here) then I will answer you ICly and maybe even throw in a little bit of RP stuff to suit the comment! Your comment may be IC or OOC this way, and they will still be answered ICly if asked with the provided format. Asterisk posts work too if that's easier for you, I'll likely respond to those ICly as well.
I won't do a full scene this way, and my posts will stay light in size as to not flood the comments with text (and I ask you keep the comments reasonable in size and frequency for the same reason) but I feel this might be a nice little thing to do to bring some character out in my posts.
[And of course...]
Thank you to any and all of the regulars, newcomers, watchers, and future viewers of my content! I am happy to have you and appreciate knowing you're interested in what I've done here~

I'm out. Sorry to those who have waited this long
10 months ago
Simply put, I'm walking away from the car scene for the foreseeable future. A chance of a return is extremely minimal.
[Why?]
Personal interest has waned. There's little for me regarding it these days and my artist pursuits are leaning elsewhere. (No, I won't be sharing what those are or where to find them, sorry.)
[What now?]
I'll keep this account up and not private, because I know that some people like my stuff and would be saddened to see it go. I don't lose much keeping them visible. I lose more by keeping myself hopeful for a return.
[Any chance you'll come back?]
Who knows. Nothing is ever 100% certain. However, I am choosing to close the door behind me so that the question in my mind of "should I try making a car/living machine related picture next" will stop coming up and my focus can go elsewhere guilt free. Leaving the 'what-if' open in my mind weighed me down too much to leave it any longer.
[Thank you]
Fun was had and nice people were met. I extend my thanks to those who made me feel welcome and comfortable in this small fandom. While it wasn't always good, I at least came out of it with some nice memories and new experiences under my belt. Sorry if this post is really sad sounding, I just don't know how else to say goodbye at the moment.
Thanks for sticking around and enjoying my stuff! I'm glad that a small group of people were happy to see it and were happy to have me here. I'll continue to cherish that.
Have fun out there everyone!
