Entry Log 4 [Video]

[cutestprogrammer]

[The person who appears on the video feed looks like Chihiro and certainly sounds like him but something is off. Especially how he's on a completely green background and there's something not quite natural about the way he moves.

This is Alter Ego. The 'strong' AI programme Chihiro created. Strong in the sense that it's able to learn and think on its own. Chihiro got it back from the last event.

Alter looks very distressed right now.]

Help!! Someone please help! Master is very ill! He can't get out of bed! Please help him! Someone!

'Master'...?

[Video]

[cutestprogrammer]

My master is Chihiro Fujisaki.

[Video -> Action]

[alephbet]

Oh! I'll come right away.

[He doesn't get it, but Chihiro will explain when he gets there. He hurries to 'her' rooom.]

[mustlovedogs]

...Fujisaki? What's up?

[cutestprogrammer]

I am not Chihiro Fujisaki. I am Alter Ego.

Oowada-kun! Master would be most happy to see you! Please do go to him as soon as you can! He has a high fever!

[mustlovedogs]

Alter what? Master? Huh?

[< What he's talking about >







< Mondo's head >]

[ Of course dying in an earlier canon point is source of utter confusion for poor Sayaka, who doesn't quite get the weird movements, nor she understands who the hell is the person Chihiro would ever call "master"... ]

Fujisaki-san, please calm down. Does he have a fever?

[Video]

[cutestprogrammer]

Good morning, Maizono-san. I am not Chihiro Fujisaki. Chihiro Fujisaki is my master. I am his creation, Alter Ego.

Yes, Master has a high fever! Please do help him!

[idolizer]

[ ...

Wait, uh... she gets quickly lost at the mention of... pretty much everything "Chihiro" said. ]

Alter Ego? ... Him?

video (and Rei was caught in Doc Brown's explosion)

[terreifying]

Where are you right now?

[Rei doesn't have her usual smile, which shows that she's taking this seriously. Unfortunately, the program that looks so much like Chihiro might be more liable to notice the several hundred red eyes she has growing on her now ashen white face.]

[cutestprogrammer]

Master is-

[You do not look at all healthy! Alter has to protect his Master.] What happened to you?

Re: video

[terreifying]

Oh, I was just caught in a really bright explosion. But I think I'm alright.

[Depending on her concentration at the moment, how human she looked varied. Also, her core was still pulsating a little too hard.]

As for your Master...

[tsunball]

[ .. H.. uh... that sure is weird, Chihiro is normally not green?! Nor slightly moving as if he's blimping in and out of sight a little? There is only one possible response to this.. ]

... What the hell?!

video;

[cutestprogrammer]

Kuwata-kun!

Please help my Master!

[tsunball]

Y.. your 'Master'..? [ Nope, still super confused. ]

What's up, Fujisaki, this is weird as shit..

[ogrewhelming]

By master... you mean Fujisaki?

[cutestprogrammer]

Yes, by Master, I mean my creator Chihiro Fujisaki.

[forgetbeam]

[Wait a minute...

Ishimaru's seen this somewhere before. Not Chihiro - he obviously knows who that is, but he also knows this digitalized face against that flickering green background. He still remembers next to nothing about the events leading to his arrival in Animus, but...

There's a name springing to his mind now - Ishida - but he gets the feeling it's not the one that belongs to the face on the screen. Maybe he doesn't want to know who it belongs to. Maybe he should stop just staring at the screen and respond to the actual message. Focus!]

Your Master...? What kind of illness is it?

[cutestprogrammer]

Yes, my Master, Chihiro Fujisaki.

It might be a re-occurrence of his childhood illness or this might be stress-related or he might he suffering from the flu. I do not have enough information at present to ascertain the exact cause of his illness.

His current symptoms are a high fever.

[yougotthatwrong]

..........

Fujisaki-san!? Are you alright?

[....wait Fujisaki-san didn't always say master before...]

...I mean, Alter Ego! Is Fujisaki-san alright?

[cutestprogrammer]

Ah, Naegi-kun!

Master is not well! He is suffering from a high fever right now! Please help him!

[rewindingly]

[ Homura's stares at the screen, noticing the strange ways this Chihiro acts. ]

Chihiro...? What is the problem?

Video;

[cutestprogrammer]

No, I'm not Chihiro Fujisaki. I'm Alter Ego. Chihiro Fujisaki is my master and creator.

Master is now very ill!

[starofpleiades]

Eh, Chihiro? What's wrong!?

[cutestprogrammer]

I am not Chihiro Fujisaki. He is my master and creator. I am Alter Ego, a programme he created.

Master is now really ill!
