Description
Starbelle entered the passage leading from the cryosleep chamber to the control room. As she walked she spoke to the AI that managed the ship. "Ship, can you access one of your surrogate bodies? When I face whatever is on the bridge I don't like the idea of being alone."
Ship replied: "It appears that I am barred from control functions but it seems I could activate and control one of my surrogates. I will enter one and meet you in the navigation station. We can proceed together from there onto the bridge proper. I'm sorry I can't do more but if you find a physical presence comforting I CAN manage that, at least."
Molly's art notes: Set up and rendered using Superfly Cycles X in Poser 13.3.686. Some postwork was accomplished in Superfly and a tad more in Photoshop. The character of young Starbelle is based on La Femme. Tons of other legacy characters were used to fill the other cryoleptic chambers. The setting is by the wonderful BlueTreeStudio (I fiddled with the textures a bit to get a bit more utility from the content). As usual, I found scripts by Ken1171_Design indispensible.

What a sweet AI! So very supporting in it's limited capacity! I like where you are going with this series! Hope to see more of it! Many super fine kudos from me to you, Molly!
MollyFootman
Thanks for the encouragement, Rad! The AI is bound by Asimov's three laws and then some. I hope you will enjoy the appearance of the surrogate body which I plan to reveal in the next picture. =)

Superb scene and story!

Thank you, my dear! It's a pretty old science fiction trope but it has not yet been done in the Mollyverse! XD

Gosh, ED, I really appreciate that comment! I spend a lot of time with expressions and try to be subtle. <3

Thanks for the kind encouragement, P4me. I'm always looking for new techniques and refining those I have in my repertoire. =)

The vessel AI is bound by Asimov's three laws? We hope he - or it? - will not become like HAL 9000...
MollyFootman
I'm not sure what the AI's pronoun would be but I imagine it to have a feminine voice. I'm hoping the three laws don't get broken by the zeroth law: “A robot may not harm humanity, or, by inaction, allow humanity to come to harm”. With that a robot might neglect the well-being of a single human in the service of benefit to the majority. =)
I do love my science fiction and particularly love Asimov even though he's a bit of a male chauvinist. He is a product of his time.

Nice pose and expression!
MollyFootman
Thank you! I was trying to achieve the look of someone unsure of how to proceed and communicating with an unseen ally. Subtle stuff! XD

Starbelle est beaucoup plus jeune que mon personnage typique mais je l'aime bien aussi ! Je suis tellement heureuse que vous ayez suffisamment apprécié l'image pour me laisser un joli commentaire !

This AI sounds like one we could live with! Starbelle looks really good here, and I'm glad she doesn't have to face things alone.
Very well done, Molly!
MollyFootman
Thanks, Rod! I'd like to think that future machine intelligences cooperate with humanity and other organics in a mutually beneficial way; a symbiosis if you will. Probably I'm a hopeless romantic. =)
Starbelle is a cutie, I agree. A bit younger than my usual heroine but perhaps more charming for that.
