For the @tfrarepairing fest 2024

Imagine you create a robot. You make it look like you. You achieve actual artificial intelligence, enought so that people cannot diffenciate between you and your robot.

The robot's strenght, intelligence and programmable opinions/memories make it a hot comodity. So you start mass producing it. You're incredibly proud of it.

But now, when people see you on the street, they assume you're one of the robots. How could they not ? They have seen hundreds, thousands of robots identical to you, as smart and as creative as you.

It doesn't help that you programmed your ego into your creations, and now they all think that they're a real human, that they're the creator of the rest of identical robots. They bug out if they're confronted with their robotic nature, or even just their barcode. It's more of a bug than anything else.

And little by little, people forget that you were the real one. They just assume you're lying, or believing it to be true. Just like the rest. They placate you with a "yes, sure" when you try to explain to them that no, you ACTUALLY ARE the real one. The don't care if you show them the failsafe, that you don't bug out, that you beg them to believe you. They all think you're one of the robots, because every single robot think they're human.

Would that be fucked up or what.

Now imagine you hear of a robot that knows it's a robot. It is one of thounsand identical clones, identical to you, but it stand out. People talk about that one. It stands out.

So you go to see it. Maybe it holds the key, maybe you will be able to make your robots accept they're robots. This one seems very proud to be a robot, its ego in a new place. You see it. It greets you, very polite, absolutly identical to you. Its barecode plainly visible, yet not making it bug. Fully independent. And you talk with it, ask it how to do, ask it what it learned.

It tells you that the main thing it learned, is that the creator of the robots did not look like them. No one with this identical face is The Creator.

You laugh, of course. You're the creator, the original. This robot must have seen too much robot beg to be believed before bugging out. It must have lost faith that there was an original. You try to explain all of this to your creation, try to explain the hell you live day after day. It asks how you know you're the true human. Memories can be programmed, it says. You struggle to explain that you know, you KNOW, because you ARE human. You're proud of your creations, but you hate them, they're you but people believe you're them. You're the Creator, you just need people to finally believe you.

The robot with your identical face looks sad. When it shows you your barcode, you bug out.

Would that be fucked up or what.

You know, I was thinking about an idea I had then realized just how angsty it would be on one side and how much fluff it would be on the other and I'm curious about other people's ideas too ngl

So like, I was toying around with the idea of Shanon coming back to Gardenview and snatching up the loser lesbians and bringing them home with her to save from... Whatever happened. Shanon has no idea, she was never allowed to know, so she just has two VERY traumatized toons now. She'll know how to keep Shelly entertained and happy, she was ALWAYS with Shelly, but I highly doubt she'd know how to keep Vee in check at all.

Vee would probably quickly spiral into a mental crisis about it too, as now everything has been destroyed in her eyes. Nobody remembers her gameshows because they ended years ago, nobody remembers her because Gardenview closed years ago, nobody's interested in learning about her as she's outdated technology to them now. She'd be alone, only able to quiz Shelly now, but she's heard all her questions and knows all the answers by now. She'd probably start self isolating because she just doesn't know what to do with herself, lashing out at Shanon because she genuinely doesn't understand why people aren't fans of her anymore and wants to blame someone except herself. She would be such a wreck and probably have major beef with any new technology Shanon brings home because it replaced her in her mind. Vee is now just... Vee. She's not a celebrity any more, she's not loved by anyone except the toon handler who took her in and her now popular dinosaur girlfriend, and she would not have a clue what to do about it.

Shelly would most likely have the opposite problem, she looks like a living toon just wandering around like she's a common sight to see - of course people would notice! Kids would ask her about fossils and she'd happily tell them all about what she is and their minds would be blown by how much she knows, she'd probably be asked to play by kids who think she looks really neat and be dragged to the sandbox to 'fossil hunt' whenever Shanon takes them to the park. Shanon very much would hide plastic fossils in there too just to see Shelly smile, like she used to before her museum shut down. She'd be such an interesting sight to see that she'd get stared at, often asked what she actually is, and probably would be the talk of the town for a while. Eventually everyone would know that Shelly is just there to have fun, don't bother her too much, but at first everyone would be so shocked by a living breathing toon they'd swarm the poor thing! I'm sure Shelly would be just a little irritated by the constant unwarranted attention and stares, but so happy she's no longer forgotten.

Their roles would reverse is what I'm getting at here. It gives so much Vee angst to work with and Shelly comfort... I am brainrotting over this idea if that's not obvious
