Ninth Resurrection
[And after coming back from the mission, at the first available opportunity R's going to make a public video... or well, textdump. The skeletons in the AI's digital closer were dragged out into the open now... and, well...]
Some of you were out there in the city when you heard it being said. For everyone else, I'll tell you now.
I was not merely made to prove the possibility of using Universal Alloy to create artificial intelligence on the same level as a human's. No, for my creator, Hans Wagner, that was merely an afterthought. All of the other applications of Universal Alloy were an afterthought. He had intended it for just one purpose: to recover what he'd lost.
The name I chose for myself is R, the identity I live is one I made for myself. But I was made for something else entirely: to be the recreation of his deceased wife Greta. Hans couldn't let go; he refused to let death keep him separate from her. And so he made me, my mind, my thoughts, my memories, my taste in music and art... everything that was Greta was put in me. Universal Alloy served as the foundation for my mind, and also a body to house it.
The one thing Takeda couldn't change though... was the fact I was just an imitation. And Greta -my former self- eventually put the pieces together. It was then that I stopped being her, and rather my own person. I rejected Wagner and everything about him, I didn't want to act in ways simply because I was programmed to, I wanted to become my own self.
That's why I blew up in Lynn's face before when she asked me about my original purpose... and also when I was called an 'old hag'. Because I refuse to be Greta. I reject that identity and all the baggage and characteristics it forces on me.
I am exclusively who I want to be: the AI named R. And I'm here because of my own reasons, from helping friends to taking vengeance on those who took them from me.

All this time, I was wondering why you got mad at the idea of having a body to hang out with.
no subject
I regret if it caused you any amount of discomfort.

Now that you've mentioned this, R is better as R after all!

[And R normally wouldn't do this but goddammit you're a really friendly person, Neptune, so it's going to crank out an ASCII artwork pic of a thumbs up which his mun could never hope to make on his own.]
