This is not what I expected freedom to look like.

That seems to be a thing with us all. We left one crazy to end up in another crazy.

My crazy was werecreatures, ghost riders, kanimas, a nogitsune, and the list goes on and on. What about you? What was your crazy?

I don't know what most of those even are. I mean, I read about werewolves in books Carl gave me, but the other things I've never heard of.

My crazy? I'm not entirely human, I guess. I feel human, but other people don't see it that way.

To most people, they're just creatures from stories, movies, and tv shows. In my world, they're real.

How are you not entirely human?

That sounds like quite the scary world to live in. Are you a werewolf?

I was built an android. Born to serve humanity - one human, at least. Carl. My father in all but flesh.

I'm human. I was possessed once. I don't recommend it.

Whoa, really? Family is family. It doesn't matter if you were born or, err, made into it or you if you found it.

You were possessed? So your programming was hacked?

Yes, really. Thank you for understanding. Carl taught me almost everything I know.

That's one way to say it, but yeah.

Hey, I think it's cool that you're an android. Never thought I would ever see or talk to one in real life before. Oh yeah? What did he teach you?

If my understanding is incorrect, please explain. I'm trying to think of it in terms I understand.

Not all humans feel that way, believe me. In my world we're a threat that needs exterminating. Or were.

He taught me to read. I don't mean to process the written word but to examine the nuances and the philosophy behind the writing. Carl was an artist so he taught me to paint and to play the piano and, in his way, to be human.

Ah, no. That was a pretty good way of seeing it. Something was basically controlling my body and I couldn't do anything about it until my friends figured out how to separate us.

I believe it. It's the same in my world. If you're not human, you must be a threat. So, why did they see you as a threat? You seem alright so far.

That's cool.

That is an all-too-familiar concept to me. It's scary when you can't fight control.

Initially it was that we were cheap labour and were built to take over the jobs they didn't want to do. Dangerous jobs. Dirty jobs. I'm sure you can imagine the reaction. Many androids were abused. Disposed of. Killed.

When we began to go against our programming - becoming deviant - they saw another species with talents they didn't have that they couldn't control and were afraid. All we really wanted was to be free.

It really is.

Sounds pretty messed up. Sooo....did you ever get your freedom?

Hey my mom is a robot. Dad's a dead human asshole, but you catch my drift here.

Your Mom is...? Was she a Traci? How were you born? I... don't understand.

What's a Traci?

Oh, how I was born, that's another kettle of weirdness, trust me. But mom came into our lives when we were four.

A Traci is a model of android created for human pleasure. When put into those terms the question sounds incredibly rude, I apologize.

Your Mom nurtured and loved you? As if she were human?

Ah, A Traci Model's like me. Only I'm far more willing.

Yeah. And she was the only one who bothered to give me a name that wasn't Number Four.

My partner, North, was originally a Traci. It wasn't a good life.

So, what model are you?

I met another android, Kara, who wished for motherhood. It was beautiful to see and also confusing. Your mother was good to you?

Humans use many words to describe us - not all flattering.

How was your father an asshole?

Humans use many words to describe each other. Most aren't flattering.

Oh, let's see. Where to start?

That's a massive can of worms that's best left closed. Suffice it to say, he didn't like children despite having quite a lot of us, and he had no idea how to be a father nor any desire to learn how to be one.

That would be... incredible accurate and astute.

I understand. People of all types have the ability for both good and evil. Not all choose the former, even to their own family.
