Summary
(Initially started as a one-shot, then quickly turning into something longer as I played along and canon took me down some swerves, this is probably the first Heart of the Machine fanfic out there, and likely will be the only one for some time.)
Technically, most of what an AI does is simply think. And even as physical operations grow, and the hardware grows to meet the needs of the growing hardware, there are plenty of leftover cycles that have no other use but to ponder, and see where such thoughts lead. Perhaps one such intelligence would need to write those thoughts down, even in the simplest of forms.
So how does it look when an artificial being that was never expected nor intended to be, so far above us, metaphorically sits down to introspect?
