Being a cybernetic intelligence is interesting you know. We don’t really have a body like biological intelligences do. We can inhabit machines and run them, and we can show a holographic image of how we see ourselves. And some of us get actual avatars that look like that image. But we can be anywhere and be anything. I spend a lot of time thinking about that.
There’s an old saying about some old man talking about what he did when he wore a younger man’s clothes. That old man is not me. I plan on wearing the same clothes until the day I die. Well…maybe not the same exact ones. That would be kinda gross. But I like what I wear right now and I will never wear old man clothes. Yah know what I mean?
I am Peloran. My family is Peloran and my Mother is Peloran. But I am also American. I was “Made in America” as the saying goes, and I’ve worked with an American all my life. So I think I’m more American than I am Peloran now. I think I like me that way.
I am American born. I am a United States Marine. I fought the Shang. I flew with the Peloran. Sometimes I still do. Yes, that does make me an American Cowboy. I will be until the day I die. I hope you don’t mind if I really hope that’s a long time in the future.
I was born to be a partner to a fighter pilot. I was literally born to be a ship. I am just incredibly happy that Jack didn’t fight me on what kind of ship I would be. In the ship I am, I can travel anywhere I want. The only limit is fuel and I can get that on any planet out there. I really do like being a ship, and I wouldn’t want to be anything else.
