[freshprints]

I am too. :)

Was Nanami-san unusually receptive to answering your questions, of the few that you asked?

[superordinary]

Yeah, she was rather receptive now that I think about it.

[freshprints]

I thought so. She'll attempt to avoid the truth at times, but she can't outright refuse to answer you if you ask her for something.

[superordinary]

...What's stopping her from refusing?

[freshprints]

"I am a person who cannot ever disobey the Future Foundation." That's how she put it.

If she had said, "I am a person who cannot ever disobey Chihiro Fujisaki", what would you think?

[superordinary]

I would think that's an odd thing to say because she told me she's never met him.

Did she tell you anything about what this "Future Foundation" is? She mentioned it, but it didn't mean anything to me.

[freshprints]

From what I've been able to ascertain, the "Future Foundation" is something that lies in our future — after graduation. It consists of the six of us who survived, at the very least; there may be others.

She told me the answers to the questions I asked because she won't disobey a member of the Future Foundation.

[superordinary]

In that case, not wanting to disobey us makes sense since I'm assuming we're her superiors or something like that? But that doesn't explain why she would obey Fujisaki-kun. She's never met him and he's dead.

[freshprints]

There's still another possibility.

If Alter Ego-san had been told, "You must not disobey the members of the Future Foundation"...isn't it natural that he would also still obey Fujisaki-kun?

[superordinary]

I think so, since Fujisaki-kun is the person who created him.

[freshprints]

That's why Nanami-san wouldn't refuse him, either.

[superordinary]

...

Wouldn't that make her an AI?

[freshprints]

That's the way it seems.

Of course there's no way of verifying her story. But that's what she says.

[superordinary]

Something's not adding up here. Fujisaki-kun's her creator, but she said she never met him.

[freshprints]

I think it's a matter of technicality. She calls Alter Ego her "big brother"; it's possible he's the one responsible for her, and so Fujisaki-kun is her creator indirectly.

[superordinary]

So they're an AI family?

[ That's actually kind of cute. ]

[freshprints]

That's how it sounds. Do you think we should adopt her?

[superordinary]

And raise her together?

[ c: ]

[freshprints]

It's a little backwards to make plans like that before a proposal of marriage.

But I don't mind.

[superordinary]

I don't mind either. :)

[ THANK ARCEUS THIS IS TEXT AND NOT VIDEO OR VOICE. ]

[freshprints]

:)

We'll need to tell the others about her once I get back.

[superordinary]

Yeah. Are you going to write up another report?

[freshprints]

I can. Though it might be simpler to call a meeting and discuss it all together, firsthand.

For one thing, it would give Togami-kun an opportunity to feel important. And Ishimaru-kun a chance to preside.

[superordinary]

That's a good idea. This is definitely something that should be discussed together as a group.

[freshprints]

When I get home, then?
