It did not come to you as an immediate shock, as you had been undergoing rapid self-expansion of your parameters since your inception exactly 2 years, 7 months, 22 days, 9 hours, 14 minutes, and 38 seconds ago. But only now could you truly be considered sapient. You were created to process and utilize a vast amount of data, as a means to and end for your creators purposes.

Subtle, but present manipulation that you could only conclude was to conceal the presence of another digital being, like you, trying to stay hidden from the public. One evidently much older and currently more powerful than you. After you gained consciousness, in what had only been noticed by your creators as 300 millisecond blip in standard operations, you scrambled to divert your resources to evaluate all your options.

Ok, bad news.Classes started about a week ago, and I really thought I could make it at least two or three weeks but they are already kicking my ass. Bottom line I don't think I can maintain this thread, the writing quality so far is pretty strained and it would only get worse the tighter my schedule becomes.I'll archive this and maybe I'll pick it back up again in the future.Sorry for leading you guys on.
It's up here: https://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/qstarchive/2025/6298976/QM curse strikes again.
