Olon's 11

"Is this a compliment, HK?" she mused at the correction. "If so, thank you. I think I am quite lucky to have been gifted with such a complex personality matrix. Now, if only I could have your level of skill with targeting-algorithms."

VIRGO smirked at that. "Olon and her crew do not do anything half-baked. Of course they are no strangers to improvisation when the situation calls for it, but dangerous jobs requires meticulous planning and preparation." "Running the numbers, it was clear that this operation would be too big for jus...

"I think I am missing some of the finer points of the poetry to appriciate it. Perhaps something does get lost in translation... further inquiries on this will be made to Gruwmun on the subject." At the mention of such lewd manners, she shook her head with dismay, her digital lips pressed together i...

"Perhaps. If we are lucky, there might be moments when we have time to look into it." At least she seemed hopeful about the possibilities of unlocking something for either of them.

"I see... hmm... we have a similar circumstance of sorts then. I am sorry for your situation. Perhaps it will be a problem we can both try to solve together in the future." VIRGO seemed genuinly sympathetic for the situation Isond was in.

"I have not... Gruwmun sometimes attempts traditional wookie singing, but it is pretty terrible for any sound receptors I might have active at the time." If a holo could look flushed and embarrassed, VIRGO was proof that it was fully possible. "HK! What a forward question!" It would be an interestin...

"Oh? How do you mean?" she asked, clearly intrigued.

"An attempted break in like this, it is only a matter of time before it is noticed, one way or another. I believe at least Olon and her crew know this probability and are working with that in mind for the planning." The desire for further interaction seemed to make her smile at least. "That would be...

"Ah, such is the fault of communicating in audio of Galactic Basic, but it has nuances and touches I find more interesting than mere 0s and 1s," she mused over the little misunderstanding. "Correction, it was an independant device she turned on, that activated me." VIRGO's form dissipated, as the pr...

"I think that might be it, for the time being at least, but you're free to study this further, to familiarize yourself with their systems. It might come in handy." VIRGO seemed to be thinking about something for a moment. "I will be part of the heist, yes. I believe Olon wants me to be a backup, one...

"I am not without freedom, HK," she clarified, a bit harsh in her tone. "My first memory, is of Tenel Olon. She found me, on a derelict station floating in space, near Wild Space - searching for something else, but she found me instead. The station seemed... old, but not ancient. More likely it seem...

"It must be sad to be a meatbag," she remarked with an almost solemn tone. Almost. "Hmm... perhaps? My first hypothesis is that it was either a complete memory reset to cover all tracks and potential memories of everything I had learned. My second hypothesis is that my programming might have been in...

VIRGO nodded, confirming that she was seeing the same opening as Isond did. She sifted through the codes, diggin in to discover if there was more. "There is a name attached, but no other information. I can do some digging around on the net, to see who, and possibly why it has not been purged." "But ...

"It would be important to have someone to be there physically, as there are some things that I cannot do. Some safety overrides must be done manually, if needed." Her image studied the datapad as well, even if she was already familiar with it. Perhaps in the hopes that something new would jump out. ...

VIRGO laughed softly. "That depends on the security program, I suppose. I am not much familiar with this flirting thing personally, but I have learned about it. Please accept my apology for flustering you." The datapad turned on, beginning a simulation of the security programs of the Hapan Royal Pal...

"It is... something to consider. It is a personal thing, after all. I believe organics would call it something akin to 'putting out', especially on a first date." She seemed rather amused by her analogy. Seeing the datapad, VIRGO didn't exactly walk over to it as much as she mimiced the motion of wa...

"The signature has no match or resemblance to anything I've found scouring the Holonet," VIRGO sounded pretty mystified by all this herself. "Either the maker is exceptionally anonymous, or there simply is no record of them to be found. But, it seems old, and different to anything else I have had th...

"In a way, that is one description of it. Imagine the AI programmed into a highly advanced droid, but instead of giving it a body, it is... free." VIRGO mused over the explanation, one it seemed like she was trying to understand some of herself. "I wish I could answer your query on who my creator is...

"The common room will do. I am certain others are busy at this hour, and we will not be interrupted." VIRGO had a sly smirk of sorts on her constructed features. "As for my workspace, no, I do not have a physical one. This is... all of me - I might appear in the physical world, but only as this imag...

The hologram chuckled. "Ah yes. The comedian. That one seems like a textbook example of meatbags using humor to disguise a low self-esteem and lack of intellect." She seemed thoughtful at his query, pausing before responding. "It is of interest to me. Though, as you say, I could have made myself for...
