Functioning Just Dysfunctional Page 8
I can still remember that one night after everything happened. I felt hollowed out and just scratched the pencil into the paper until it broke. I was a mess, and I still am a mess. When the lead tip snapped, I rested my head in my hands and sighed, leaning over the page, and the words said " Because of you, I'll never know what it means to feel safe with anyone again. " Just talking about it..I feel a lump in my throat and the cold on the tips of my fingers.
Was it me? Is it always me? What do I do to people? Is it them? Why is it so hard for us to be sweet, and kind, and..and..mm..
When I reached my edge, a boy came to me as if seemingly out of nowhere. I felt like an awful person, and I still feel like an awful person. Like a monster, sometimes inhuman. He didn't come along and tell me I wasn't those things. He just told me the way I was..he liked it. I want to believe him so badly. It's so cruel that I've been stopping myself.

Even though I do not always give comments or even long comments, I always take a look at what you draw.
Your stories are always consistently nice. It's truly something.
I wonder where you are going with it or what kind of theme you will explore this time. Probably not the same as the last one.
An interesting effect of extremely advanced robotics is that after a certain point, mechanical and organic start to look like one another. The most advanced of computers require very specific circuits and by operating in certain ways, unforeseen changes can occur in the circuits, changes which make the program difficult to transfert because it now require this specific quirk in its circuits to function as it currently is.
So while there are indeed hard limits to realistic robots, a potentially sapient robot that has existed long enough would eventually grow to have a custom CPU. Not because its CPU is not a mass production model but simply because of the effects that specific signals and levels of heat/what not would have over time. Unless that quirk is understood, replicating this robot would thus be difficult if not impossible even if you make an exact copy of the program if you do not have the specific hardware qurik that go with it.
It's a strange concept indeed... but fascinating.
I ponder if it is the same here ; this unit has existed for so long that it has developed a non-standart process. Or alternatively, a restraint was lifted in a... less than positive manner, resulting in a mind not equipped to deal with its new situation.

It's hard to find words to describe the pains of Anxiety and Depression. It's a symptom of the 21st century.
It's hard to feel human when there is little time to give to yourself let alone others.
I don't know the answer to any of the questions. All we can do is be honest as we can, while trying to not subject ourselves to our own inner torment. It's not easy but it's the only thing I can think of despite my own flaws. To be human is to be flawed in some way, there are no easy answers to be had.
