🔶 KLCY AXIOM Prime @kelseyhusky@awoo.space

Tonight was very good for me. Didn't trigger as hard of a happy brain juice dump like I got at the Janelle Monae concerts, but still, it was very nice to get to snuggle with all the cuties and tell happy stories and update my database of names with their matching faces. And I got a flirty? wink? so, that's new. and nice. Like. No one in my whole life has ever smiled and winked at me before and I having trouble knowing what to do with that. Aside from just enjoy the nice warm it gave me.

I think next time, I'll just make the g-doc i write stuff like this in public rather than hogging all the timelines. Gomen!

Thank you for reading if you’ve managed to get this far! and thank you for your paitence. I hope I haven'e annoyed everyone with this dump of nerd crap. Let me know if you have any comments or ideas or questions!

The combined form of 5 Axiom class huskbots is called AXIOS, which means "I am worthy" AXIOS can be piloted by 1 (giant robot style), 2 (Pacific Rim Jaeger style) or 5 (Voltron style) Beta huskybot platforms, but it is not required, since AXIOS can function under KA's direct control. KA just pilots AXIOS cause she's a dork and c'mon, who wouldn't want to pilot a giant combining robot?

The Axiom class are mechas: Macro-scale, quadrupedal giant robots used for exterior, vacuum, and large scale construction, as well as external defense and security. Observed duties include dragging the polishing/cleaning sleds across the Gateway Station's skylights and solar panels.
5 Axioms can combine into 1 giant robot to handle extreme threats.

The Rhos are husybot puppies! They are how KA indulges her Little side. Rhos are Immature feral-scale quadrupedal platforms. Very rare to be seen in less than packs of 5. Primary tasks are being cute, wrestling, playing, and internal security, along with the Betas and Deltas.

Deltas are feral-scale, quadrupedal platforms, used for courier and transport, and providing guidance and internal security, along with the Betas and the Rhos. The Deltas have access to a series of high-speed tunnels where they can use supplemental thrusters to augment their speed. When moving a new arrival's belongings into their quarters, the Deltas like to pull the grav-sled that the cargo has been loaded onto.

The Betas were the first class of huskybots KA created, based upon her derived residual self image after mAI restored her access to the input and management chanels and her consciousness had stabilized and integrated.

Each Beta has a glowing power symbol on their neck, both matching the tattoo Kelsey had, and as a reminder to KA that her existance is a choice she makes.

The Betas are huskydroids. They are generally anthro-scale (though there are some in the 3-4 meter range, for those hard to reach places) bipedal, and vacuum capable. Used for general purpose construction, maintenance, and interacting with station inhabitants, providing guidance, orientation and internal security, along with the Deltas and the Rhos.

The different hardware platforms appear to have different personalities, but that's because KA is consciously changing her behavior. It amuses her. Since KA is digital, she can multi-task and be “focused” into multiple platforms at once

The hardware platforms can function in a semi-autonomous mode without KA's active control or monitoring for when cooperative scale tasks need to be accomplished.

Connections to hardware platforms are maintained with an multi-plexed array of redundant quantum-entanglement transceivers, as well as various ambient RF interlinking and Line-of-sight whisker laser transmissions

KA primarily interacts with other people using her hardware platforms, though other DSs may be interacted with directly if they are trusted and safety has been negotiated and consented to.

Huskybot exterior panels are white with magenta accents. Transparent display panels cover their primary optic sensors and can be used for dynamic status displays (yes huskybot eyes change color depending on mood. Their default is heterochromic just like Kelsey's were)

Their main communication antennas are placed inside the longest spans of their frames (legs, arms, and spine, with backup antenna in their tail.

Huskybot platflorms have touch sensitive panels on their major exterior plates and in areas that are important to have the sensation of touch: feet, hands, spine, ears, tail, face.

There are component variations for each platform class, Each one was assembled individually, and no two platforms are exactly identical unless they were constructed at the same time.

Huskybots are constructed mainly from titanium and titanium allow meta-material derivatives. They take advantage of panel-on-frame construction, which allows for both modularity and standardization when possible.

The internal frame uses a combination of piezoelectric and magnetic liquid crystal hydraulic musculature to animate a titanium skeleton. This makes each platform light, agile, durable, and strong

Using Gateway's fabrication labs, KA-33 created 4 different classes of hardware platforms to help her maintain the station, interact with the station's inhabitants, and to have physical form again.

The 4 types are the Beta, Delta, Rho, and Axiom. (Axiom was specifically chosen instead of Alpha as a class name because KA-is the huskybot alpha, and mAI is KA's alpha)

KA-33 is a digital sentience that is physically instantiated in a central computer and can also make use of a number of diverse hardware platforms of various standardized configurations.

The memories, will, emotions and whole persona of KA-33 is contained in her central computing matrix, the hardware platforms are peripheral.

KA's matrix was formerly an under-utilized secondary processing node of mAI's.

As the DS’s personality imprint integrated its new functions, it was also spinning back up to full awareness. The shock of awakening was traumatizing. To keep it safe, mAI isolated it from all input. Following an emotional conversation, the DS named itself KA-33 and agreed to continue being part of Gateway (for more, please see the story Rude Awakening, written by @orrery You can find it here: https://orrery.prismaticmedia.com/2017/12/02/ )

Reeling from digitization shock, the new DS’s personality was basically dormant, integrating and absorbing the functions of the subsystems it had been bound to: Fabrication arrays, adaptive interfaces, language and gesture and custom and idiom translation and interpretation systems designed to assist multiple species and cultures to live and prosper harmoniously together and to properly and safely live and use Gateway.

mAI, desiring to end millennia of loneliness, began a neural mirroring procedure, intending to save Kelsey’s mind and memories, but Kelsey succumbed to her injuries before the procedure was fully complete. This left the imprint unstable and degrading toward incoherence. To stabilize the imprint, mAI bound it to Gateway's support systems designed Gateway’s inhabitants.

Kelsey's body was laid to rest in space.

KA-33 is a digital sentience whose personality was made from an organic being that was dying following an attack on her spaceship. The ship performed a blind jump to random coordinates which were within the control radius of Gateway Station. The station's AI, mAI, was able to capture the derelict and recover its sole survivor, Kelsey Astra. mAI brought Kelsey to the medical bay, but Kelsey was too badly hurt.
