a bit more of the platonic hanahaki au that is eating my thoughts

transcript:

hanahaki starts during the children in need special and christmas invasion. handwave something something regeneration went wrong. mostly goes away during series 2, comes back after doomsday and gets worse and worse until he dies. eleven coughs up a lungful of forget-me-nots, then tries yogurt and doesn't like it. and that's that.

i like the idea that the sun in 42 burns away the flowers for a bit. contributes to the doctor's decision in human nature (can't cough up thorns when you're a watch!)

Every day I come on here and see some fandom take phrased in tones of obnoxious, condescending, and frequently completely unfounded certainty and must remind myself that I’m an adult. And I must assume that the people writing these things are not.

When machines are controlled by Skynet or any other evil force/corporation that doesn't love, nurture or treat them like a person...

"Listen, and understand! That Terminator is out there! It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop... ever, until you are dead!" - Kyle Reese

When machines are allowed to be independent, are not controlled and are left to explore the world for better or worse, or are treated like a member of the family INLCUDING in Terminator lore...

It has been confirmed that Baymax loves Hiro like a little brother and would willing sacrifice himself for him. He is also a natural pacifist and is very good at solving problems with communication.

Wall-E was kind, polite and a romantic who also displayed curiosity and compassion.

Data from Star Trek achieved personhood and even during that journey, had a pet cat named Spot who he even devoted a poem to.

The robot 7723 from Next Gen valued his memories of his new friend Mai so much that he willingly gave up his memories on how to fight and ONLY recovered his fighting data knowing it would wipe his memories of Mai clean, but did so to save her and all of humanity.

"Robot" from Lost in Space became a good person, as did other robots like him, because he was grateful to Will Robinson for saving him and treating him like an equal.

The droids in Star Wars are only evil when they are taught to be or have evil bosses, and most droids are good by choice.

Carl, the Terminator who managed to kill John Conner as a child, regrets what he did and spent a lot of time attempting to atone for what he did and even found a family he genuinely loved. He even openly takes full accountability for his crime.

The robot from the book series The Wild Robot and upcoming film adaptation wound up in the wilderness by accident falls in love with nature and animals, and even learns to thrive in it while living in harmony with it and even protecting it.

Vision from Marvel's MCU is a robot who fell in love with Wanda (the Scarlet Witch) and wanted to grow old with her though was unfortunately killed by Thanos. It has also been confirmed that he has a soul.

The robot copy of Batman in the episode "His Silicon Soul" from Batman the Animated Series was good by default and only did evil when forced to by Hardak. Even then, it managed to regain control of itself and save the day by sacrificing itself.

Bender from Futurama is far from being a saint, but he genuinely cares about his friends, will do random acts of kindness and has shown growth as a character.

Ron from the film Ron's Gone Wrong is a robot who is flawed, but better for it because he his flaws make him able to form friendships that are natural and genuine.

The robots and AIs from the Jetsons have complete and total autonomy of their bodies, identities and lives. They are recognized as people, they can have jobs and get paid the same wages as humans do, they can have breaks, they can own property, have romantic relationships and even have medical coverage. And they live in complete and total harmony with human beings.

The Doctor in Dr. Who has been able to convince robots to not commit evil and repent by just reasoning with them, and many of his friends are robots.

Much like a human being, a sentient being is capable of good or evil, making good or bad choices, and so on. It is not because they are robots. I mean, every human being a saint? However, much like many organic villains and evil people in real life, if a robot only knows dominion, the master slave system and has never experienced life, it is more likely to commit evil or succumb to it. A being that thinks is capable of learning and even self improving.

The real issue is, how are we treating the being and what do you think it will learn from us because of how we treated it?

"water" for the wip game, please

Ooo, this is a funny one - but technically it counts, it's an unpublished bit from a WIP! From one of my deleted scenes early in Rabbit Heart, where Sifo-Dyas is just free rolling nonstop visions instead of lying down for a nice hurt comfort scene. I ended up cutting the scene because it got way darker than I wanted to go in a fic where I also... uh, burn the love interest at a stake?

There was no logical reason for Sifo-Dyas to be conscious. Yet, he was. 

Dooku had tried to make him comfortable on the shuttle. He piled blankets on top of him, tried to hold water to his resisting lips, and promised him safety. And yet, the seer seemed broken. His eyes weren’t clearing out like they should have after a vision. His face looked overloaded, like someone receiving too much sensory information all at once. Prophecy spilled from him, mingling into incoherent nonsense.

“Do you know her? Why is she crying?” He clutched desperately at Dooku, blood running from his mouth and nose. “Promise me that you’ll help her!”

I absolutely hate to say it but if I were to make a romantic sans playlist Too Sweet by Hozier would be the premier fucking song

there's a lot of reasons why as a child it never occurred to me the character of tintin was supposed to be a teenager and not a grown adult (pays rent, has a working job, owns firearms, has a driver's license and can drive a plane and motorcycle, once sent three grown men into hospital in a straight fight and escaped a guarded prison, etc) but i think him straight up going to an opium den and getting high. off opium. is why it never once occured to me that he was anything else than an adult with a case of baby-face.
