...what is a "Mega Man" and why do you think I should talk to them?

Is it because I am an android? Are they cyborgs, hence the name "Mega Man"?

I do believe I need more information to fully understand this term.

I think your Mun is referring to my brother. He's called Mega Man whenever he goes off to fight.

[immortalia]

--Ah, I was not aware that he was your brother, miss, nor that it was a title! Thank you for the clarification.

[housecleans]

It's no problem, miss! Oh, and I'm sure my brother would love to meet you too, whenever you get the chance!

[immortalia]

Hopefully it is sooner than later!

[onehalfmega]

Huh? Are you sure your mun doesn't mean MegaMan? He's not an android or a cyborg! He's my partner!

[immortalia]

She is fairly inexperienced to this series, I have found, so she does not know much about it. I apologize on her behalf, sir.

[onehalfmega]

[Oh gosh, and nice lady is apologizing to him. Lan will give a grin and laugh.]

Hey, don't sweat it! I don't expect everyone to know about MegaMan! If you'd like you can talk to him?

[immortalia]

[ It's what she does on a daily basis. ]

I would be honored to meet him, sir.

...although, how does one "sweat it"? I am sure I am not programmed to have that capability.

[onehalfmega]

Haha, I don't mean it literally! It's called a figure of speech. Haven't you heard of any before?

[legsgolan]

[And Lan's holding up his Personal Terminal (PET) so MegaMan can join in on this conversation.]

What do you mean by programmed?

[immortalia]

Ah, so you are using a colloquialism. My apologies, I am still getting used to those.

[ A pause and Sertoria waves to MegaMan in the device. Why is he in the device? She does not understand... ]

I am an android, person I assume to be MegaMan. Everything I can do has been programmed in some shape or form by my creators.

[ Which...she doesn't rely on too much anymore beyond maintenance. Oh, well. ]

[legsgolan]

Oh, sorry. Like you guessed, I'm MegaMan! I'm Lan's NetNavi, if you're wondering why I'm inside here.

[He'll wave back.]

You're an Android? Wow, isn't that amazing, Lan?

[He's looking at Lan nods in agreement.]

Yeah! The closest thing we've got is a CopyBot, but those are for NetNavis to use.

[immortalia]

What is a NetNavi? I am not familiar with this technology.

[ A nod. Even if she's not proud of what her creators have largely done, she knows she's a scientific breakthrough. ]

Ehe... My main capabilities is mainly fighting, but I have a few other specialties, such as super speed, strength and advanced sight and hearing.

[legsgolan]

Here, I'll pull up an entry for you.

[This is what MegaMan does best-!]

A NetNavi, short for Network Navigator is an AI program that assist their Operators, from their Personal Terminal, known as a PET. Lan here is my Operator!

[The two will be listening as Sertoria explains what her function is.]

Wow, I never knew I'd meet a fighting android up close! Who'd have thought? By the way, I don't think we've ask what your name is. I'm Lan Hikari! This is MegaMan, but you already know that now.

Mega Man is an android from a popular video game series. At least, it was popular in my universe. The franchise has died off, but she might be interested in seeing if two androids that help humans will get along. Of course..you may find many different versions of him in this place. There are quite a few alternate universes and the like here.

[immortalia]

As I have quickly noticed by talking to those two individuals before you. It is funny how diverse this multiverse is, is it not?

How have you been lately, chaos?

[lightofhumanity]

It can be quite interesting to see how different similar universes can be. I myself met people I knew in my universe that behaved differently and had taken on other roles in theirs.

And I have been well. My Mundane has been a bit busy lately, so she's letting me take quite a few naps.

[And you're getting groggy as a result, chaos.]

How about you, Setoria? Are you well?

[immortalia]

Oh, that must have been interesting to meet your friends in a different light! Now you have me wondering how I would act if I was in a different world.

That is great to hear.

[ A grin and Sertoria takes out a few granola bars for chaos. Eat, okay? ]

I have been well. My mundane has decided to let me rest, but it is lonely, I will admit.

[lightofhumanity]

It was quite interesting..and hopefully your personality would not change if you were in a different universe, as I think you are fine as you are.

[And with a smile, chaos would take one of the granola bars Setoria offered him and bite into it. While granola wasn't the tastiest food in the universe, he had eaten worse before, so he kept on smiling as he chewed and swallowed before replying.]

It is good that she has allowed you to rest..but does she not talk to you? Or let her other Muses interact with you? That can help the loneliness sometimes.

[After all, if you had someone, anyone, to talk it, it usually helped things.]

[immortalia]

Thank you, chaos. I have worked for thousands of years to keep the personality I have today, so I will keep fighting to protect it.

[ It's all she has that she usually keeps around for kids she finds in the desert. Maybe she should have offered a meal somewhere else... ]

No, she does not. She does not have the others interact with me beyond my future son every so often.

[ Still, she's lonely. ]

[lightofhumanity]

I am glad to hear it. I would not like it if the person I am now changed for the worse either.

[Not that he's against any change at all..but he wouldn't really be happy if Setoria, himself, or anyone else changed to become a serial killer or something. But she needn't have worried about the food. chaos was fine with it, as he took another bite of it before replying.]

I see. I sometimes interact with a small child or the other unmarked people she has in her head..but hopefully she shall let her interact with others sometimes. Or, perhaps, she shall talk to you more.

[dividedby]

"Mega Man" is one person...and he's a Reploid.

[immortalia]

If you do not mind my asking, what is a Reploid, sir?
