The ipad of the future

 Guess who's back? Sonny that's who!

Here's an unfortunately named robot with a bunch of problems including: a crippling father complex, a bad case of hero worship, and currently a very serious infliction of the broken. Sonny arrived a year ago, and has been caught in a teleporter error since September of last year. Anyway, when he's not being a gymnastic killbot of death, he's trying to fill the void in his positronic heart (anatomically his second positronic brain) with anyone shaped like a doctor (of the PHD variety), a detective, an older man, or possessing the qualities of: a badass motorcyclist, a therapist, or anyone that seems nice and works with virtual intelligences.

Sonny was last seen murdering Red and trying (in vain) to adopt an older Bruce Wayne as a father figure. He doesn't much like nonhumans, doesn't know anything about animals (he thinks Thane is a cat), is kind of terrified of people (unless they have the characteristics mentioned above), and has the built in instinct to protect and serve humans at the cost of his life. He's impossibly good at everything except people-skills and honesty.

Now fresh out of a Sacrosanct teleporter loop that cost him 8 months of his non-life, he's skittishly fleeing back to the abandoned robot museum to hide forever.

His current damage stands at: a busted up leg, a burnt up hand and arm, broken neck joints, and general scratches all over; so he pretty much looks like a mess.

PS: if any of you guys ever want to have the stuffing kicked out of your characters by a robot who can climb walls and punch through steel, just let me know. Alternatively, Sonny is up for being the kickee if you know someone who wants to throw their weight around, but doesn't want to beat on those organic and squishy.

Joe is a badass motorcyclist and has a strong distrust of robots. I never saw the comparison before.

[isonny.livejournal.com]

Man, way to conflict the poor guy. On one hand, you're just like his idol, on the other... man, he's pretty leery of people. Especially those that don't like VIs.

[originaljoe.livejournal.com]

Never said Joe was here to make things easy for him.

[isonny.livejournal.com]

The thing about people who don't make things easy for sonny and his like... are that they tend to end up dead or with a few more broken bones than they started with.

[projectconcerto]

Maria will be fascinated by him.

...She will also want to fix him.

[isonny.livejournal.com]

He badly wants to be fixed, but doesn't know how to do that without being seen by a person.

[isonny.livejournal.com]

Also he'd probably start calling her doctor haha.

[projectconcerto]

Oh man she's so not a doctor.

But if he has his own schematics in his head, she can see them and have her nano-machines build replacement parts for him!

...But she will have to see him, yes. And she is a person.

[isonny.livejournal.com]

Bawww! He's TERRIFIED of nanomachines. That's what you use to kill robots in his canon.

[alaspooryork]

Wohoo! Glad to see him back!

[isonny.livejournal.com]

I'm so happy to have him back!!

Also, hello there little hologram. He knows what you're up to. He knows.

[alaspooryork]

he is up to helping people he swears

[isonny.livejournal.com]

Yeah, sure, that's what all the holograms tell him. Right before they start a war on humanity.

Did someone call for a father figure with a PhD, motorcycle skillz, and an interest in artificial intelligence?

[isonny.livejournal.com]

I did't know Flynn had a PhD!

Also, Kevin will never be rid of the little robot. Seriously, Sonny will be non-breathing down his neck 24/7. The poor guy's kind of emotionally clingy and ... clingy. Are you sure you want that?

[theuserabides]

Caltech, 1980. It's canon! And it's not like he goes around mentioning it. Maybe five people on the station know, and they're all from his world.

...Have you seen the kind of emotional basket-case Clu is? Flynn's used to it.

BUDDYYYY

you came baaaack

[isonny.livejournal.com]

Oh look! A vent cat!

Are you raising kittens in a hidden alcove nest yet?

[eighttotwelve.livejournal.com]

...No, Sonny. No I am not. :|

[doesn't have the heart to tell him he's not a cat]

[brokenbowfetish.livejournal.com]

I-I love this movie so much. Just. So much.

/flails all over this account

[isonny.livejournal.com]

I know right! Man, it was so different than the book, but s-so lovely.

It's actually really rare for me to find people who know the film.

[brokenbowfetish.livejournal.com]

I didn't even know it was a book until recently, and I still need to read it (but I don't read anymore besides textbooks, haha!). I'm guessing it's good?

Really!? But it had Will Smith in it, which is what attracted me to it in the first place (and then I just fell in love with it because it was amazing).

[recompiling]

We never met so hi, I'm Jayde and I play Rookie from Halo 3: ODST and Anon here from Tron: Evolution and eeeeee I loved that movie and Sonny!

And Anon isn't human, but looks human, and tends to be wicked nice to roboty/AI/Program types unless they're yellow, which Sonny clearly isn't. So if he needs a friend that will ultra-curious about all his mechanical bits!

As for Rookie, he's sort of a detective and is badass with the only human vehicle in his canon that's sort of like a motorcycle (but more like an ATV 'cause that's what it is).

[isonny.livejournal.com]

lol secretly we've totally met. I just forgot to say my name in the intro

Hi, I'm Mjack, and I play Pleakley, the Grand Councilwoman and soon Zira too.

Haven't played with Anon though! And Sonny certainly isn't yellow... but if he ever turns red, we're in trouble. Plus if Rookie ever said he was a detective, man, SONNY WOULD CLING FOREVER.

It's actually really cool to meet another person that liked the film. I don't meet many...

[recompiling]

Pffft, I should pay more attention when looking through people's apps.

Oh, Anon knows red is bad, too. And orange. He's a horrible colorist like that.
Also Sonny clinging to Rookie is the most adorable thing ever X3

There aren't many that do :( But I do! It's just been a while since I saw it.
