I think they still give out metals— or medals? For this amount of effort.
Traditionally bronze, though that's a bit soft.

Maybe something with a message like "You Tried" engraved?

[righthandstand]

that sounds like youre insulting me

[transect]

Not at all
Actually, I'm impressed with your dedication to understand a non-human like me.

So much so that I'll let you in on a secret—
I'm not a robot at all.

[righthandstand]

you said you weren't one

yeah with the option d thing

[transect]

That goes for any sort of AI as well.
It wouldn't be right to get your hopes up, you seemed like something of a fan.

[righthandstand]

robots and ai are cool
if theyre not evil

[transect]

That sounds like something determined by the eye of the beholder.
Sometimes the humans are evil.

Or the "aliens."

[righthandstand]

some things are totally evil like killing people that cant fight back or murdering women and taking their hands because you got a hand festish and you don't give a fuck about who you have to kill to hide your evidence

also robots that want to kill all of humanity just because they feel like it isn't somehitng anyone likes

[transect]

Oh yes, the stealing of hands can be quite a problem, even in my experience.

It certainly isn't something the hunted "like" at least, though I'm sure the robots feel justified.
Just as the aliens might.

[righthandstand]

so why do you want to kill everybody

[transect]

Not everyone.
I'd focus on the people from the moon, mostly.

[righthandstand]

what people

[transect]

Moon people.
Or Lunarians, as we call them.

"Aliens"

[righthandstand]

so on YOUR moon theres people
thats totally not earth

[transect]

Only on one of the moons.

But tell me, what is "Earth" if not a mass of land surrounded by the ocean?

[righthandstand]

thats what it is but our moon is just a rock
no air or water

[transect]

My lands aren’t so different from that.
Although with the nearly perfect round shape it seems more like dust than rock.

Why would air or water matter?

[righthandstand]

cause without it youd be dead
if you were human

[transect]

If they, or I, were human
Actually, they're more akin to monsters, if you ask me.

And not the kind that needs air or water.

[righthandstand]

monsters like the ones we fight

[transect]

The ones here also attack us for no reason often enough, so they're alike in their battle lust, you could say.

I'm curious— were there monsters where you came from before this?

[righthandstand]

no we don't have them
it's totally normal with people and stuff but some of us have these powers called stands
I had one but I can only get it back in the dream width

I guess they can look like monsters but we control them

[transect]

"Stands" ?
Perhaps you could explain this to me a little further sometime.

If it's a power, was it simply an ability of convenience? Or did you use them towards something?

[righthandstand]

everyones is different so sometimes theyre useful and something assholes use them to murder people

like my best friend has a stand called crazy diamond that fixes anything and he can heal everyone as long as theyre not dead
a girl I know can control her hair
my ability is to erase things but its not too useful

[transect]

I see.
Then— "the assholes who use those powers to murder people"; those are your monsters.

Thank you for sharing this with me.
