Graham's head emerged from under the covers "woke myself up with that one... oh, Caroline... you're here!"

Sirtel · 10-25-2023, 07:48 AM

"What are you doing in my bed?" Jon asked angrily.

Martinoptic · 10-25-2023, 10:34 AM

“Actually it’s mine. Did you break it?” Graham asked, petulantly.

neil_swann80 · 10-25-2023, 11:01 AM

A fizz and a pop are heard as the servos in Graham's android body wound down leaving it eerily still.

Sirtel · 10-25-2023, 11:06 AM

"Why haven't you still thrown that old android out? It's broken more often than it's working! It's disrespectful! And it farts!" Caroline bitched.

Jon was about to answer when the VR implant in his temple begins to glitch out again.

Sirtel · 10-25-2023, 11:11 AM

"Everything is broken these days, it seems," he muttered sullenly before blacking out.

White light cascades from a single point chasing the inky blackness away whilst a familiar sound, at first barely a distant whisper, rapidly builds in volume before crashing into him with a deafening force.

Sirtel · 10-26-2023, 07:37 AM

The sound of a fart.

neil_swann80 · 10-26-2023, 08:24 AM

An oppressive silence follows the android's final fart, then its torso explodes with a wet thump throwing spaghetti-mayonnaise like innards across the room.

Sirtel · 10-26-2023, 09:59 AM

"Sic transit gloria mundi," sighed Jon (now conscious again), eyeing the pitiful remains of his old servant. "This is just awesome. Now I'll have to get a new android, a new bed, and probably a new implant too. And perhaps throw in a new wife in the bargain."

arjaybe · 10-26-2023, 11:38 AM

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Ma said to Pa, "That boy's been gone a long time now. I told you we shouldn't have let him go to that arcade."

Sirtel · 10-26-2023, 02:33 PM

Jon shook his head angrily, dispelling the image of the farmhouse. "That damn implant is now trying to show me scenes from my childhood. The sooner I have it changed, the better."

neil_swann80 · 10-26-2023, 02:48 PM

Caroline now in the next room quietly speaks into what appears to be a simple wristwatch "The programming seems to have taken, he appears to have accepted this reality... but for heaven's sake fix that glitching interface!"

Martinoptic · 10-31-2023, 06:09 AM

Back at the ranch, the horses have escaped and our hero sets off on his nag with his trusty lasso.
