ANYONE KNOW WHERE THE BRAINS ARE ON THE DROIDS? WHERE THE BRAINS GO? WHO HAS ACCESS TO THEM?

OR ANYONE JUST WANT TO BUY A DROID?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Asking because you plan on taking them out or for some other reason?

WHICH PART? ( a little tease. )

SOMETHING TELLS THESE HOLLOWS HOW TO PERFORM. OBEY.

WHAT DO THEY TELL IT BACK?

Sadly, I only know how to dismantle one forcibly on need, not what manner they're controlled by. Only presume everything they hear can be brought back to ears we don't want hearing it. Likewise what they see.

Anyway, haven't seen mine since everything went to nightmares and we got back.

YOU HAD ONE BEFORE AND NOW IT'S GONE?

I CAME DURING THE WEIRD HEAD TRIP. SO DIDN'T HAVE ONE BEFORE. HAVE A FEW FOR SELL IF YOU NEED ANOTHER....

BUT WE SHOULD PROBABLY FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENED TO YOURS

"Brain" is slightly generous. They run on fairly rudimentary clockwork mechanisms, with code engraved on metal plates.

If you're asking because you want to take one apart, I've already done that.

THAT'S LUCKY FOR ME. I'M BETTER AT THE SOFTWARE THAN THE HARDWARE.

OKAY TO SHARE WHAT YOU KNOW?

Lucky for both of us, if we can fill in particular knowledge gaps.

Are you suggesting a collaboration?

uh... their heads, i guess??? i think everyone here is too broke to buy anything. that's why we did the dragon thing.

THE DRAGON THING?

oh wow i have to explain this now. okay. follow me on this journey.

somehow..... we had the dragon bachelor. seriously it was just like the tv show. we had to figure out who would be their mates. some of us volunteered our friends.

lives we're changed. still super unclear if we ever got paid for that.

They're all clockwork and gears; their "brains" are probably like an ancient computer's punchcards.

Haven't seen mine since I was yanked out of Minaras.

THAT WAS MY THOUGHT. BUT THEY SEEM RESPONSIVE. PUNCHCARDS CAN ONLY HOLD A LIMITED AMOUNT OF INSTRUCTIONS. TOO LIMITED FOR THE RESPONSIVENESS OF THE DROIDS. UNLESS THERE'S A SECRET I DON'T KNOW.

I DON'T LIKE SECRETS.

I KEEP HEARING THAT. DO ALL IN SERTHICA HAVE ONE OR ONLY THOSE FOR MINARAS?

The secret is that magic is real here and it does whatever the Hell it wants.

So that's probably the answer.

Only those of us in Minaras got one. Mine mostly gave unsolicited advice.

THE USUAL PLACE.

[ #helpful ]

THEY'RE NOT FLESH BAGS. THE USUAL PLACE ISN'T ALWAYS USUAL FOR THEM.

FLESH BAG IS INACCURATE. IF YOU'RE COMPARING TO A HUMAN BODY, STRUCTURALLY THEY'RE RIGID WITH THE ABILITY OF DYNAMIC MOVEMENT. "BAG" IMPLIES TOTAL FLUIDITY.
