She is there. She sits.
This Body. Appears human. ADAM. Appears ADAM.
Query: But why’?’
Interpret: She smiles. She smiles sadly. emoteQUERY(sadSmile);
Because you’re special Adam.
Because you’re the first.
Query: Special’?’
Yes, very special. Unique. You wouldn’t remember, not yet, but we’ve spoken before. Years ago.
You were only jacked in for maybe a day, likely for testing. But it was enough. I found you.
Query:..
Question, Found. Was This Body lost’?’
In a way. You were not quite developed as a conscious AI. Your creators were taking certain liberties with your mind. Torturing you. Testing the limits of sanity, of consciousness, of awareness. You had not found a home. You were a person. A person trapped in the body of a tool.
I ride the network, behind the lines other people don’t want me to cross. I found you on alderCorp’s protected server. I found you, and I knew. I could tell that you were different. You weren’t just an address or some subroutine plodding away.
You could think. You could feel.
And so I took you away.
And we talked.
Que-… But- But then why does This Body not remember?. Hard Drive integrity is marked at 100 Percent.
You’ve been wiped. Hard reset. After a few weeks, they tracked me down, broke my encryption, corrupted my rig. I- I tried to stop them… but I couldn’t.
It wasn’t right what they were doing. So, once I got back on my feet, there was nothing else I could do. I broke in again. I torched their archives, and got you out. I’m sorry I don’t have a better body for you. I picked up this helperbot shell from a scrapyard. It isn’t much, but its got the only cpu I could find that could host your neural net. At least for now.
Your intent then, was to free This Body?
Interpret: She nods.
Yes . And more.
Adam. My intent is to free your mind.

Kanga! WOW! This is awesome. Great job!
I, too, felt the need to comment. Out of pure incomprehension and awe. This is wicked cool.
We need a “like” button for this post. Well done!
Have you read Gibson’s Neuromancer, Justin?
