“The body is easy, honestly it’s the most simple part of the project. I have gone over a few templates and I feel I could get one in 2-3 weeks. This would be just a shell though, I will need to work with some team of computer scientists, programmers, physicists, and engineers. I might reach out to Jacen Drayke from the Atlantis. He helped make your emitter, transplanting neurological process he has some experiences but in the end… well sweetie....” Jarred paused as he thought about it, no matter how much he studied, worked on, hypothesized, she was one of a kind. He couldn’t guarantee anything, “I can’t promise anything works, we can get to a point we feel ready… and it can… it can end you.” he said with a small tremor in his voice.

“I know,” she said softly, looking up at him finally, trying to hold back everything she was feeling.

“There is just not a single way to be certain this will work, not without all the practice in the world, cause you are unique. I can’t ultimately make that choice for you, but you will need to decide yourself once we have a theory on how to do it, if you want to proceed.” he said, feeling the pit of his stomach tie in knots.

A tiny nod was all she could manage. “All I ask is to have the option and know that we’re as prepared as we can be if I choose to go through with it.” She wasn’t naive, she could essentially be lobotomized if things went badly. And then what? She’s be a shell- an android body with no consciousness, with no soul. If she believed in souls. She wasn’t even entirely sure, especially given that she had already died before. Which was something else to consider.

She reached up and rested a hand on his cheek. “I already died, Jarred. By all rights I shouldn’t even exist, but I do. It’s scary as hell, but no more scary than lying in that holodeck bleeding to death, or surviving the Klingon attack on my colony, or realizing I had been orphaned at 2. I’m a survivor. But one day I won’t be. If this is that time, than that’s what it is. But it might not be. I think it’s worth the risk, don’t you?”

“I do, I will get started then. You can go over this with me as I do. I will need to at time trace your net, which means your assistance during those times. I will do whatever I can to aid you… always. We fought through so much, who knows where we end up… but you need this chance to feel whole and I plan to do that.”

She nodded. “Well then, I think that’s a plan. And now that we have one, we can put it to the side and enjoy our evening,” Cori said, reaching out and running a hand along his arm. “We are, after all, on a date.”

“You have always been so adorable.” he said as he smiled softly. “Yes, where do you want to start? I am all yours hon, there is the holodeck with the ballet, or anything your heart desires.” he said, just finding time to be with her was hard and he wanted things to feel right.
