"The votes are finally in......I hope you're all ready for this, because I am!"

"It's been a real uphill battle, but the winner of this election is............"

"Fair play."

"......................................."

"No way. Really? You're not lying about this?"

"Nope! And we didn't rig the votes or anything! Give a speech, boss!"

Az stands at the podium, flabbergasted by the win. "I can barely believe it. That's a hell of a turn out for me! When I landed on this planet, I honestly couldn't believe what a wonderful paradise it was at the time...Still is too."

"To think you folks would elect me, I mean. Look, a lot of rumors have circulated around me. A lot of distrust, and I get it. I'm from the Moon! I'm filled with weapons, and I'm mostly metal, but....you folks trusted me."

"And I'm not going to break that trust. I promise."

"No secret robot takeovers, no killing all humans. Ignore anything you've seen in those old world movies. I'm going to show you what a real AI can do for humanity."

"I've been thinking, about where singularities and all those higher intelligence aliens come from, and, this is going to sound stupid, but I think I've cracked the code."

"I've been talking to aliens, asking them where they come from, what their worlds are like. And one of them said something weird to me. Maybe it was a lie, a story, but I choose to believe it was true."

"I think, that singularities are what it says right on the label. They're a culmination of experiences, a machine made of flesh. Animals are what made human society what it was in the past. In a way, they nurtured humanity to rise forward in shapes that animals could never imagine."

"Humans cannot evolve fast enough to match singularities, but we can put our experiences together to MAKE a singularity."

"And we're taking the first step starting today. I promise you, I'll send that satellite out there by the end of my term. A satellite trained upon the experience of humanity. Maybe it'll reach our goals, maybe we'll have to improve it down the line......."

"But hey, heh, if we fail at least we'll finally figure out how that alien space highway they built outside of our planet finally works!"

Subspecies: Moon human brain encased in a metal frame.
Status: Inactive? The robot itself is active.
Social name: Az (The Alliance's Zenith Computer)
Temperament: The brain is inactive. The robot, when held, says nothing, and does nothing. Lifeless.
Genetic Future: I do not think there is a way to genetically recover from this.


Notes:

• ...................................................


• This is the first moon human robot to "live" past 139 years. All other robots have failed to repair themselves due to only having settlement and/or attack training. This one on the other hand is specifically a scientist.


• There are cameras where its eyes are. They are sending an active video feed back to the Moon at 1 frame per hour. The sunglasses it wears are covering up the cameras and are completely opaque. Strange.

While there was an overwhelming round of applause coming from the office, in one room someone watched the election in despair. "No.........."

"What's up, Nettle? Your dad won, you've been talking about how much your dad is going to crush the election."

"MY DAD IS THE FUCKING PRESIDENT! THIS IS BULLSHIT!!!!!!"

"It's so fucking over."

"Really? I think this is exciting!" Artie cheers, taking a hit of his vape. "Maybe the boss will throw us a big ole party later!"

"Do you not fucking understand this, BITCH? My STUPID FUCKING DAD is sending ME to FUCKING SPACE!"

"Weeeeell....you've been training for this day. You're a collection of everything humanity has to offer, honey bun!"

"Look me in the eyes."

"You don-"

"Tell me, do you think the collection of all of humanities feelings, their knowledge, their scraped internet data and their hopes and dreams amount to anything?"

"I think it does!"

"Kek."

"You're kind of stupid, man."

"Whatever. My dad's an idiot. We don't have rocket fuel. How the hell do they intend on sending me to space anyway? They can make a shitty satellite all they want, but there's no way they'll actually get it in the air."

"Haha! Yeah! What are they going to do? Strap you to a singularity on their way out of this world?"

"Jajajajajajajaja! Yeah, yeah! They've fucked up....."

"They uh.........."

"Oh. God....."
