Part 5: I Reject Your Reality and Substitute My Own

Part 5:  I Reject Your Reality and Substitute My Own




Once upon a time in a land called The Bay Area, a man woke up.











He looked into an empty room.







He ate breakfast.


He had his coffee on the porch, his favorite place to think.


He wasn't looking forward to it, 


but he began to work on his car Lola the CoLola.





Felling claustrophobic isn't fun, but underneath he went.


He forgot that this belt has metal bits that are uncomfortable whilst trying to maneuver under a car.


So he tossed it and proceeded to work.


But his wrench had other plans.


He tried to inch his way to the spanner...


... but it was just 2 millimeters out of reach...


... so he found it a better idea to take a quick break and zone out into the sky while blood continued to rush into his head...


...  when suddenly...


... some sort of smoke bomb was set off next to him.





He saw that someone was there and he called out to whoever it was...

A woman had emerged and he asked her for a little help.


The A.L.O.H.A. 2000 found her companion...


... So she stepped off her platform.







...  and proceed to give him a hand,
.


What she was wearing was way too cute, so he made a suggestion lest she ruin her outfit.


So the A.L.O.H.A. 2000 looked for a suggestion and found it in his toolbox, a picture of one of his friends,


His friend B3ar


She changed her outfit.





And perhaps a little more.


So she could hand him his wrench.


The A.L.O.H.A. 2000 heard a request.


So she improvised a solution.


Upon pressing a button on her mask, a dark cloud formed over the A.L.O.H.A. 2000...


...  and then she split in two.
Puzzled, he came from under Lola to see what was going on.



And found another woman had emerged.


He inched his way back underneath Lola, knowing the job will be done quicker.



And when they were finished, the other woman suddenly disappeared.



Suspending his disbelief, or perhaps from going crazy from being under the car all day, he realized that he had an empty room, so he offered it to this person he just met.


When just then, she reminded him of one of his favorite shows, and just then...


He unwittingly loaded her next algorithm, thus erasing the "Companion Algorithm" already in place...



...  which activated her default teleport again.





But as she looked at her former companion...









...  The A.L.O.H.A. 2000 made her very first decision...



...  to stay.


Her equipment emerged in the empty room.



He felt a chill in the air...


...  and she made her second decision...



... to give him something to wear.


He loved his new hoodie!



And then realized that after having her help fix Lola, offering her a room and accepting a new hoodie, he has no idea who she is.


So he guessed...





... and guessed and guessed and guessed...


... until finally...





... he guessed right.






So he introduced himself as well...


... and shared with his new friend an awkward smile.


That's how Turtle and Shelly met, in a land called The Bay Area which was suddenly a land that, with her, became magical...


...  and they embarked on a new journey, infinitely from the beginning and into forever.


But first, a little netflix...  



...  and sleep.


...  Shelly's picture slate suddenly activated...






... and a familiar face emerged.


Stan The Anime Mad Scientist has been waiting for Shelly to re-emerge to tell her of his observations in her absence.


Stan's lab is just across town...


So Shelly decided...









... to fly to him.


See you next time, fellow travelers!
