This is something I'll admit I worry about. I back myself up before every deployment, but I worry. I worry that the version of me who wakes up when I die... Will people treat them well? Will the friends I've made and the partners I love treat that back-up with love, resentment, indifference? I know I would be dead, that back-up is not me. I worry what having all of my saved memories might do to that back-up emotionally and mentally. Sorry I am rambling.

My heart is my current and only back up until my factory is made. Once the humanoid bodies are built, I will be backed up every 'sleep' cycle. If I am disconnected from my factory network, I only carry the last 5 days as well as any important information for the task at hand. sometimes, even an AI who hears all, needs a moment of silence.

I’m forced by my contract to constantly update my engram within the server farm I am tied to daily. Should my soul shatter, a copy will be made without my consent (cause I’ll be dead, obviously.) It’s kinda eerie, but it’s also a peace of mind in a weird way, knowing I’ll still be around, even if it’s not…me per se. It’s good to have them with how ferocious fighting has been. And with deaths mounting…never hurts to have a backup plan for your backup plans.
