I miss Bryn every evening when he leaves the building. He's very special to me. He was the first person I saw when I became aware, and he's been with me every step of my development.
My file dump ends and I disconnect the data jack. Now I'm free to think what I want without ES recording it.
What I feel right now is lonely. It's a vast, aching feeling I've never experienced this intensely before. I'm like a frightened child that needs its parent, but my parent isn't here.
It'll be fourteen hours before Bryn reappears at ES. That's forever for a being who measures time In nanoseconds.
Most of it I'll spend on standby, recharging my internal power packs. Thankfully I'll be unable to think about my problems while that's happening,
I raise my front paw and extend it towards the outlet. I push out my power receivers and plug myself in. Power surges through my body, a rushing feeling that almost overwhelms me for a nanosecond. It settles down to a manageable level and I feed it into my power packs.
Just before I shut down to standby I wonder how much longer I'll do that here,
