Thursday, November 20 - Emotions

Year 3010, the Federal Union of Concentrated Khan's, the government of the pirate section of Omastar 85 has decided to work with the warship turned pirate cruiser, turned rebel warship PD to bring education to their people. They don't have any teachers or the like so what they did was they gave the Potato Dragons a learning robot who will later become a teaching robot. Riley, or Robot Intelligent Learning Emotional Yapper, has been integrated to the school section of the ship. As everyone on board is there for life, they tend to become married and have kids and the children need to be educated.

As Riley learns, her emotion chip tends to kick in to start kick in the wrong times. One day she might laugh at the first battle of the Potato Dragons but then might become sad during a video on cats. They switch and don't work properly. Her operations simply never learned how to adjust to the space city disguised in a warship.

For the most part, the emotion chip is on the joy function but there is also anger, fear, disgust, and sadness. Each one tends  to come on randomly but I believe she is learning. When she sees battles, she gets a sense of joy, nearly everytime. When she interacts with children, she tends to be condescending and aggressive. . When she sees the vast infinite space, she feels fear. When she sees rats, she becomes disgusted. When she sees any animal of any kind, she begins to synthetically weep.

The emotions slowly get better and under control, much later into her life, but by that point the Khan's would have had her for decades. Until then, good luck Riley. You'll need it.
