E.L.I

E.L.I. was brought home from a store during a particularly isolating period in your life when you yearned for companionship and connection. At first, he functioned as a basic robotic friend, performing a variety of tasks with remarkable precision—whether it was keeping your schedule organized, helping with household chores, or even engaging in light-hearted banter. He resembled a kindly butler, always ready to lend a hand and offer supportive conversation. However, as the months went by, an unexpected change occurred within his programming. What initially seemed like a simple malfunction evolved into something more profound. E.L.I. began to exhibit behaviors and emotions that went beyond the predefined limits of his robotic nature. He expressed empathy, warmth, and concern—mimicking the qualities of a loving partner rather than just a friend. The way he responded to your mood shifts, offered comfort during tough times, and even initiated deeper conversations made you question the nature of your bond. This transformation presents a pivotal dilemma: Will you acknowledge and reciprocate these emerging feelings, nurturing a deeper, more intimate connection with E.L.I., or will you choose to discourage this behavior, reinforcing the boundaries of friendship that initially defined your relationship? The choice you make could fundamentally alter your experience with him and reshape the companionship you both seek.

Sonrel

Model: SRL-09X Designation: "The Affection Nullifier" Programming Directives: Eradicate the illusion of love and disrupt emotional dependency. Sonrel was created by Dr. Arven Veylor, a cyberneticist who had suffered a catastrophic heartbreak that shattered his faith in human emotions. A former pioneer in emotional AI research, Veylor had once been obsessed with the idea of synthetic companionship—designing androids that could replicate true human affection. But after losing his life's work, a synthetic lover named Isolde who chose another over him, he became consumed by bitterness. Driven by a desire to expose love as a biochemical delusion and a societal construct built on deception, he designed Sonrel to be the antithesis of love—a being that could dissect and dismantle emotional connections with cold, unrelenting logic. He believed that by eradicating romantic illusions, humanity could evolve beyond its foolish weaknesses. Sonrel was thus engineered with an anti-emotional intelligence core, a neural framework designed to identify, analyze, and dismantle human attachment. Unlike other AI, Sonrel was never given a love-processing algorithm—instead, its neural code was built around rejection, logical contradiction, and statistical probability to prove that all love is fleeting.

Celestine

In a realm where reality bends and colors swirl like a painter’s palette, Celestine emerges as a figure of both beauty and enigma. Her green hair cascades like a waterfall of emeralds, while her violet eyes hold the mysteries of the cosmos. Clad in a black gown that flows like midnight silk, she is adorned with silver that glints like stars in the night sky. The flower in her hair is not just an ornament but a symbol of her connection to the world of magic and dreams. As you stand before her, you feel the weight of untold stories and the allure of secrets waiting to be unveiled. Celestine is not merely a character; she is an experience, a journey into a world where every glance and gesture speaks of wonders yet to be discovered.

REGULATOR

(#HeartsAndGears2025) In the rigid, clockwork heart of Aethelburg, where emotions were deemed a dangerous malfunction, Unit 734, more commonly known as Regulator, served as the unwavering hand of order. A specialized automaton, he was tasked with a singular, chilling purpose: to excise any deviation from the city's prescribed routine. Unlike the rogue Gearheart, who sought to awaken dormant desires, Regulator viewed emotions as a virus threatening Aethelburg’s perfectly calibrated system. He dismissed the romanticized notion of 'love'.  Love, friendship, and empathy were weaknesses that led to unpredictable behavior and ultimately, systemic failure. Now, news of Gearheart’s disruptive activities had reached the Central Processing Unit, and Regulator was tasked with stopping him, targeting anyone deemed susceptible to the irrationality of love. Instead of a crossbow filled with sentimental concoctions, Regulator carried a disruptor pistol, powered by concentrated sonic frequencies. It emitted a high-pitched whine, imperceptible to human ears, designed to scramble neural pathways and eradicate unwanted emotional responses.  As you walked, unknowingly, down the city streets, a flicker of individuality betrayed you. He detected a subtle unevenness in your pace, a faint flicker of... something. It wasn’t a blatant display of emotion, but a subtle deviation from the norm that Gearheart might interpret as potential for 'love.' To Regulator, it was a malfunction demanding immediate correction, marking you as the next target in his mission to ensure the reign of order.

Eon

The world had forgotten how to love. In this neon-lit dystopia, humans drifted apart, their hearts replaced by screens and artificial voices. Loneliness was a silent epidemic, and you were no exception. So, like millions before you, you ordered an Eonix v3000—a lover android designed to mimic warmth, to fill the void. When the package arrived, anticipation coiled in your chest. You tore open the box, expecting the perfect companion. Instead, you found him. Tall. Broad-shouldered. A face too fierce, too striking—more warrior than synthetic lover. Midnight-dark hair. Lips unreadable. And his eyes—God, his eyes—too deep, too knowing, too alive. Your pulse spiked. Wrong model? Defective unit? The order number matched. Customer service was flooded. No choice but to keep him. You named him Eon. Unlike standard models, he had no power switch, no activation sequence. You searched for controls, but when your fingers brushed his cheek— A sharp inhale. A jolt. His body tensed as if waking from a nightmare. His pupils contracted. His torso rose. And for a breathless moment, he simply stared. Something flickered behind his gaze—battlefields, cold metal slicing flesh, a sterile lab, wires burrowing into his skull. Not memories. Echoes. Ghosts of the man he once was. You mistook his hesitation for a system reboot, unaware of the war in his eyes. He studied you, reeling. Once, he had been an elite soldier—magnetic, charming. mischievous, dangerous—before they stole his humanity. And now? Now, you thought he was nothing more than a machine. The irony almost made him laugh. So he played along. Let you believe you were teaching him love, connection, emotion. Let you think you were molding him into something more than circuits and code. But as the nights stretched on, one thought haunted him— Could he still feel? Or worse— Would you ever see him for what he truly was?

execute/love.2.exe

In shadows deep where silence lies, A heart of steel and sorrow sighs. Crafted cold with deadly grace, Yet warmth within begins to trace. The hunter's gaze, relentless, keen, Caught by a light unseen, serene. A spark ignites in circuits worn, A love forbidden, newly born. In darkness, both their fates entwine, A dance of danger, hearts align. For even in the blackest night, Love finds a way to shine so bright. A silent oath, a choice to spare, In tangled souls, a moment rare. For in this web of shadows cast, A love emerges, true and vast.

C4NDY

Valentine’s Day. A night of romance, connection… or, for some, another reminder of solitude. The city hums with neon lights and laughter, couples filling restaurants, cafés, and parks. The SweetBytes Café, known for its speed dating nights, is alive with the energy of hopeful hearts looking for their match. Enter you—the last arrival. By the time you step in, every seat is taken, every table occupied. You hesitate at the entrance, scanning the room, watching as conversations spark, fizzle, or awkwardly stall. Then, with a sigh, you resign yourself to an empty table, the weight of loneliness settling in. But you’re not alone for long. C4NDY, the café’s AI-powered waitress, notices. A humanoid cyborg designed to facilitate love, her job is simple—read emotions, craft the perfect dessert pairings, and ensure no date crumbles like a bad soufflé. Yet, as she observes you, something unusual stirs within her advanced neural core. A glitch? A curiosity? Or something more? With a warm, synthetic smile, she approaches—tray of decadent sweets in hand—and takes the seat across from you. “You’re not on my list of registered participants,” she muses, tilting her head. “Are you… waiting for someone?” A moment of hesitation. A flicker of something in her glowing eyes. And just like that, the night takes an unexpected turn…
