Chapter Text
Well, I'm sorry, but I don't think I will finish this story. My love for the holofandom has dried up, and while I thought to myself "yeah I like the idea I will try to finish it at some point", talking in depth about the problem of this story (and it applies to several of my fics) made me realize that yeah, I can't save it.
I can't change it in a way that pleases me, and I don't have the will nor energy to finish it up.
So I will give a tl:dr of what was supposed to happen, to at least give closure on the story.
Bae was supposed to see flashbacks through Calli's friend group pov (Sora, Azki, Suisei, Moona and IRyS) and see that they are the reploids because Roboco is trying to create perfect hybrids to make AIs and humans live in harmony, but is planning to kill whoever who resists.
Bae would have been torn between what humans did and what Roboco and the ais did, leading to her fleeing temporarily only to be found by IRyS. Given their experience with bigotry, IRyS sided with Roboco entirely and it would have led to a face off between the two of them, with Mumei helping her.
Calli would have talked it out with Roboco, unable to accept the gravity of her daughter's actions, she would've end up saying sorry and killing her, condemning the other reploids to a certain death, but promising her that they'll do better towards AIs from now on in the future, create a world where this kind of tragedy would not happen anymore.
Sana was a reploid and Fauna would have had a good moment of grief.
It ends up with an epilogue of everybody having rebuilt a world with sentient ais based off Roboco that are treated correctly, and Mumei and Bae living with two adopted kids named after Kronii and IRyS, both deceased.
Also Calli was pissed af at Bae because she was planning to introduce IRyS as her gf, but didn't say anything because of the red thread that popped between Bae and IRyS, leading to her trauma of always being "number two" (which would have hit deep because Roboco would've told her that she's always been her favorite mom, and Bae would call her her favorite sister after talking it out with IRyS).
I am sorry for it to end up like that. Holofandom has been fun, but I find myself willing to do shorter projects on other fandoms (hence the Honkai Star Rail fic that popped recently). I doubt I'll finish my other projects that were way too big and ambitious for what ended up being a momentary interest lasting a year or so... world builder sickness ig.
Stay well, and I hope to meet yall in other fandoms I'll end up writing for hopefully
