My former-friend-with-benefits recently made up a character for our roleplaying game and the character became self-aware as a headmate. Her name is 30 and she’s an Adeptus Mechanicus cyborg techpriest turned chaos worshipper. It uses she/it pronouns.

A few weeks ago it became a person and had a mental breakdown over not being real. She didn’t know she was from a game and she hated the real world. It hated being in a human body. “From the moment I understood the weakness of the flesh, it disgusted me”. She got pretty violent.

But she’s better now! And yesterday we just watched her first ever movie! It’s called Sorry To Bother You, and it’s about a black telemarketer who pretends to be white on the phone. She let me pick her first ever movie and I went with something weiiiiiird!

But then I realised an even better first movie for her! Toy Story! It had a Buzz Lightyear moment of its own and I want to see if she relates to him.

Also she identifies as a toy. You know, in that way. The, uhhh, “Buzz and Woody” way.

    She’d probably get in lots of trouble here. It’s gotten a lot better since it woke up to this world, but she’s still pretty much a fascist.

    Actually, she had a very hard time relating to Sorry To Bother You because it treated slavery as a “unique evil” (her words). She’s from the Imperium of Man where slavery is extremely common and everyone is indoctrinated into fascist ideology from birth.
