|-|Preview=
V1 sat on the stone floor and considered its kill.
It had scoured its data stores, trying to match the immense beast up with the things it had already come across. It seemed like a mishmash of ten different animals. This creature was covered in deep blue scales, with glowing spots scattered across its body, curved horns, and a thick, crocodilian tail. It even had wings. The most exciting discovery was the gills on its neck, which were both fragile and rich in blood.
The robot didn't really care what it was, of course, as long as it provided fuel. That had been its attitude for hundreds upon thousands of years.
...Was that still true? The way its last journey had ended had sparked something within its gore-stained circuits. It'd started having thoughts and feelings of its own. More than anything, it had realized that its way of life was not sustainable. If it killed everything it came across and gorged itself like a starved animal, it would eventually run out of fuel here. Just like it had on Earth, and just like it had in Hell. In other words, if it went down that path, it had no future.
It didn't want to do that again. It wanted a purpose. It wanted to exist beyond an urban legend or an angel of death.
But how?
|-|Notes=
I wanna do something like a connected oneshot collection. V1's first encounter with a dragon, its first friendly encounter with a dragon, its first time seeing a human again, that sort of thing. I'm having trouble deciding whether it should be in a tabber like this, collapsible things, or whether I should make the oneshots their own page and have this just be a teaser/summary. Maybe multiple pages, and every oneshot has its own??
Eh, I can iron out the details later. For now, back to school.
Also, I just checked the preview and DAMN, the tabber looks good with this formatting. A little extra messing around and it'll actually be presentable! The colors don't really work, though. Anyone know how to change that?
