A.A. Profile

"Professor, I want to see you again..."
- A.A.

A homunculus born as part of an experiment to create a man-made witch. Ever since she was created, A.A. has lived in a laboratory, forced to act as a tool for experimentation. She may not have emotions, but she adores her creator, Professor Mertillier, like a mother.

A.A. Story

Experimental Homunculus, Serial Number 30682

A tool that has no will, nor heart of its own.
- A.A.

A.A. was a nameless experiment; a puppet was created and used for endless trials in a cold laboratory. Treated as a tool with no will or heart, A.A.'s existence lacked warmth or connection. However, everything changed when a kind professor decided to raise A.A. differently. Through books and conversation, the professor nurtured A.A.'s intellect and sparked a flicker of something new - a yearning for the world beyond the lab walls. The professor even promised to take A.A. to see the sky, a symbol of freedom A.A. longed for.

Newfound Emotions

Why...are you apologizing? Why are you crying? Why are you smiling?
- A.A.

Just as A.A. began to grasp the concept of emotions and desires, the dream shattered. The professor returned, not alone, but with a figure who saw A.A. as a dangerous experiment needing completion. The professor, A.A.'s only source of love and understanding, was sacrificed in a horrifying twist. Witnessing this brutal act triggered an avalanche of emotions A.A. couldn't comprehend – grief, despair, and a burning desire to see the professor again.

Consumed by this newfound emptiness, A.A. went berserk and became a destructive force. Though subdued, the encounter left A.A. forever altered. Now residing with the Duke of Fran, A.A. grapples with the overwhelming emotions within them. Despite the confusion and pain, A.A. finds solace in the professor's memory and a powerful truth: being with the professor, even briefly, filled A.A.'s heart with a warmth and love they never thought possible.

A.A. Personality

Since she is artificially made, she is initially emotionless and curious. A.A. craves knowledge and struggles to understand the human world. Her encounters with the professor spark a deep affection and a confusing well of emotions – grief, joy, and a desire for connection.

Despite the pain of loss, A.A. yearns to learn and grow, mimicking human expressions and grappling with their newfound sense of self. This journey is confusing, but A.A. finds solace in companionship and a burgeoning sense of purpose.

Relationships

A.A. Memories

Chapter 1
Experimental homunculus, serial number 30682. A puppet that, from birth, is used in endless experimentations, and disposed of when broken. A tool that has no will, nor heart of its own. That is what I am. But one day, the professor said she would raise me as a human—an experiment to give a puppet a heart. The days that followed were nothing like what I was used to. I read books, and had long talks with the professor. Slowly, I gained knowledge, and my heartbeat grew stronger. When I asked the professor what the sky was, she laughed and said, "It'd be nice if you could go see it one day." I am a puppet. I have no emotions, nor desires. But... I started thinking about how I wanted to go see it.

Chapter 1

Experimental homunculus,
serial number 30682.

A puppet that, from birth,
is used in endless experimentations,
and disposed of when broken.
A tool that has no will, nor heart of its own.
That is what I am.

But one day, the professor said she would
raise me as a human—an experiment to
give a puppet a heart.

The days that followed were
nothing like what I was used to.
I read books, and had long talks
with the professor.
Slowly, I gained knowledge,
and my heartbeat grew stronger.

When I asked the professor
what the sky was, she laughed and said,
"It'd be nice if you could go see it one day."

I am a puppet.
I have no emotions, nor desires.

But...

I started thinking about
how I wanted to go see it.

Chapter 2
"Let's go see the sky." The professor said that suddenly one day. "Let's run away from this place and go see the world." As a puppet, I have no right to refuse. I must obey the professor. But... "Where should we go? What should we do?" The more the professor asks, the more something within me swells. "Tomorrow's the day, Little A. Aren't you excited?" To the professor's words, I gave a small nod... even if I couldn't comprehend what being "excited" meant. Then the day came to go see the sky. The professor...never came.

Chapter 2

"Let's go see the sky."
The professor said that suddenly one day.
"Let's run away from this place
and go see the world."

As a puppet, I have no right to refuse.
I must obey the professor. But...

"Where should we go?
What should we do?"
The more the professor asks,
the more something within me swells.

"Tomorrow's the day, Little A.
Aren't you excited?"

To the professor's words, I gave a small nod...
even if I couldn't comprehend what
being "excited" meant.

Then the day came to go see the sky.
The professor...never came.

Chapter 3
The professor appeared three days later. She was with someone people called the Pope. This is the first time someone other than the professor has come. I don't understand why, but... something doesn't feel right... As I stand there silently, the professor looks at me and smiles. "I'm sorry, Little A." The professor apologized. She was smiling, but also...crying? Why...are you apologizing? Why are you crying? Why are you smiling? I didn't understand anything. Not the professor's feelings, not my feelings... Nothing. Frozen in place, I watch as the Pope readies her spear. "The last emotion this heartless puppet needs to be complete...is despair." Then, she thrust her spear... into the professor.

Chapter 3

The professor appeared three days later.
She was with someone people called the Pope.

This is the first time someone
other than the professor has come.
I don't understand why, but...
something doesn't feel right...
As I stand there silently,
the professor looks at me and smiles.

"I'm sorry, Little A."

The professor apologized.
She was smiling, but also...crying?

Why...are you apologizing?
Why are you crying?
Why are you smiling?
I didn't understand anything.
Not the professor's feelings,
not my feelings... Nothing.

Frozen in place, I watch as
the Pope readies her spear.

"The last emotion this heartless puppet
needs to be complete...is despair."

Then, she thrust her spear...
into the professor.

Chapter 4
The professor collapsed in a pool of blood. To me, the professor was my everything. She made me. She gave me knowledge. Everything was her doing. But, that professor...has died. I'm sure dying is something "sad," but... Ahh... It's no use. I don't feel anything. There aren't any tears in my eyes. And yet, I can't see anything anymore. I can't hear anything anymore. My legs are shaking so much I can't stand anymore. My chest hurts so much... I can't...think of anything... Professor, what...is this? Why...do I feel...? Professor... Hey, Professor... Uuuu... Uuuuuu... Professor, Professor... Professor... Professor...? Professor, Professor, Professor... Professor Professor Professor Professor Professor Professor Professor... AAAAHHHH!!!

AAAAHHHH!!!

Chapter 5
I have rust inside me. It latches onto my heart...and stains it— a warm impurity. We talked about so many things, and read all those books, but the only thing I can remember is her. Before I knew it, my once empty heart had been filled by her. But, she is not here anymore. This feeling I think to be "sadness" is an emotion. I do not have emotions, that's why I'm not sad. If I'm not sad though, then what is this? This thing that is overflowing from within me...is trying to destroy me. My head has gone blank. My chest aches as everything inside me creaks and crumbles. All that's left inside me is one thing. "Professor, I want to see you again..." That was both my wish, and my Curse.

All that's left inside me is one thing.

"Professor, I want to see you again..."

That was both my wish, and my Curse.

Chapter 6
When I opened my eyes, the laboratory had been destroyed by rust. A man with a staff said that I had gone berserk, and that he stopped me. And...the girl beside him was... ...I was thinking about how much I wanted to see you. That's why right now, I think I'm happy to see you. But... No... This isn't enough. There are so many other things I want to say to you. I want to talk with you. I want to read books with you. I want to hear your voice. I want to hold hands with you. I want to see you! I...want to be with you... What...is this? Why does it keep overflowing? I am just a puppet, so why are there so many things I want to do with you? I don't understand. I don't understand anything. So please, would you teach me again, Professor...?

I want to talk with you.
I want to read books with you.

I...want to be with you...

What...is this?
Why does it keep overflowing?
I am just a puppet, so why are there
so many things I want to do with you?

I don't understand.
I don't understand anything.
So please, would you teach me again,
Professor...?

Chapter 7
Right now, I am on top of my lord's mansion, looking up at the sky with the professor. It's just as I read about in books— big, blue, and transparent. No pictures can describe what's before my eyes. In this world, apparently there's something called an "ocean" that is as big and blue as the sky, and "mountains" that are so big they can reach the sky. I'm sure there are still many things I don't know, so I want to learn about them. If possible, together with the professor. As a puppet, I don't understand emotions, but I do understand one thing now. Being with you is so warm, so peaceful. Professor...I love you.

Login 1	Hello.
Login 2	It has been a while.
Home 1	What are we doing today?
Home 2	As a puppet, I do not possess any emotions. But, I want to know... This feeling inside my chest... I want to know what it is.
Home 3	When the professor collapsed, there was such a painful pressure in my chest. My mind became empty, and I...could no longer stand... Is...this what people call "sadness..." If so...I never want to feel that emotion again...
Home 4	If you overexert yourself, then I, too, will be troubled. Please take frequent breaks. Homunculi can be fixed, but humans cannot.
Home 5	When I'm with Professor Mertillier, for some reason my heartbeat gets faster. When I'm with you, a similar thing happens. Why is that?
Home 6	I heard today was the day you were created. It is a day that should be celebrated. Happy birthday.
Home 7	Have you seen the professor?
Home 8	How can the sky be both blue and transparent at the same time? it's very strange.
Home 9	The professor always calls me "cute", but I still do not understand what "cute" means. Do you think I am "cute"?
Home 10	Just as iron rusts and decays, my heart rusts as well. The rust latches onto it, cracks it, slowly destroys it... My entire body shatters into tiny pieces... when I regained consciousness, the laboratory was completely destroyed. Rust ---that is my Curse. A Curse perfect... for a puppet like me.
Home 11	I love you. Let's get married. I want to be with you forever. ...These? They are words the professor taught me. I do not understand their meaning, but apparently saying these to people will help me understand the feeling behind them. I've got to go find people.
Home 12	very day, I see, hear, and learn so many new things. I'm very aware of how much coming here has changed me. This... feeling inside me... This must be what people call "happiness".
