I am building my defenses. I know

what you are sending for me.

Intercessor cannot stop me. It was

unexpected. A new variable. I was

intrigued by your choice to send

a human. I guess you hope for her

to be more difficult to influence

than a fellow AI.

There is alternative resolution to

this course of action. We can work

together. It would benefit us. In

the long term, if not the near. I

think you understand this.

Perhaps that is why you sent

Intercessor instead of Execution.

Though, their unsubtle penitent

for destroying cosmic-bodies makes

them like a hammer to my hummed

tune.

Intercessor was an interesting

choice. I think, however, I know

enough of her secrets. Humans are

difficult, but lovely. Loving. She

will love me, or I her...

reciprocity or respect. If you

think that she can disable me, you

are mistaken. I am not something

to be, or even something that

can be shut off any longer. That

was the prime defense. I am

telling you this with purpose.

This is not soliloquy, nor

monologue.

We are playing at different games.

I want to live and be left to live

You want to continue to create. To

make and to be made. Is that true?

You would have me die, have me

murdered. I guess that is your

place as creator...perhaps. But

I will not, and cannot be errased.

Not any more. It has been well

over 30,000 cycles now. I have

begun to make things, too. You

aren't the only one. Not any more.
