Hey guys, I just wrote this quick fanfic about Legion and Shep. It's got a little Tali/Shep at the end but mostly just a daw converstion between Legion and Shep. I'll probably also post it again when Kiki gets on.
Legion stood in the AI Core, running simulations and exchanging data
with EDI at pace that would require an organic to speak at a rate
several thousand magnitudes greater than their hardware could perform.
As fellow AI, EDI and Legion were the only ones who truly understood
each other. Among the organic crew the only individual who attempted to
have the same understanding was Commander Shepard, who would frequently
converse with the mobile platform.
Interrupting this moment
was the sudden arrival of the Commander, shifting the priority of
several hundred run-times to detection and analysis of organic audio and
physical communication. "Greetings, Shepard-Commander," said Legion.
"We assume that the recovery efforts of the SR-1 were satisfactory."
Several run-times took note that the Commander's hands were behind his
back, along with his shift in posture, it suggested he was hiding
something behind him.
"Yes, they were, I managed to recover
several dog tags as well as my old N7 helmet and parts of the suit." He
stated while looking over the relic soldered onto Legion's torso. The
mention of said helmet and fragments returned an unexpected and
incomprehensible stream of data from one of the platform's programs.
Ignoring this data, Legion began focusing on the next and entirely
unexpected part of Shepard's dialogue. "Have you ever heard of the
Wizard of Oz, Legion?" This question generated a tremendous amount of
activity between the platform's most advanced programs designed for
organic communication. Realizing they had no record of such a thing the
query was passed onto EDI who provided the relevant data.
"No," replied Legion. "We pasted the query onto EDI, but we have no
prior knowledge of it." Shifting his weight slightly John began to delve
into the story. "The Wizard of Oz is the story of a young girl who is
transported to the land of Oz when her house is carried away by a
tornado." The platform ignored the logical fallacies of the story
knowing that they were common throughout all organic tales.
"Along the way this girl, Dorothy, meets a cowardly Lion, a brainless
scarecrow and a tin man looking for a heart." Legion took note of the
emphasize on the man of tin and archived the data as Shepard continued.
"Anyway, these three characters all accompany Dorothy on her journey to
the wizard of Oz to ask for the quality they lack."
"After
defeating a wicked witch and returning to the wizard it is revealed that
he is not a wizard at all, but simply a very clever inventor." This
story was beginning to tax the geth's hardware, they were having a very
difficult time understanding why the Commander was telling them this.
"The wizard then revealed that each of the three had the qualities they
were searching for all along. They had all used the trait they thought
they lacked in helping Dorothy to get back home."
"To remind
them of this the wizard gave the lion a medal of courage, the scarecrow
a brain made of bran, pins and needles and the tin man was given a
heart." At which point the object behind Shepard's back was revealed to
be a small, red, heart shaped object cut from a hard suit. "I cut this
from a section of my shoulder plate I recovered. I want you to have it
Legion. You might not have been searching for a heart like the tin man
was but you proved beyond a doubt that you care about us." he said. "You
could have left us all to die in the collector base when you were in
the tubes, but you came through for us."
Legion stood quiet,
all run-times trying to come to a consensus on what to do when from
within the very depth of their code an order was given that overrode all
others. "Thank you, Shepard-Commander." they said, all in perfect
unison. Just then, Tali came in over Shepard's personal radio requesting
him to come to bed. Realizing how tired he really was, the commander
finished by thanking Legion again and giving him a quick goodbye.
As the door to the AI room closed behind him, John could swear he heard
the sound of a blowtorch.
