← Does Omega Dream of Electric Friends?
Chapter 1 of 12

Home Alone

This event story takes place after Main Story Chapter 3.

Asherah

Let's give it one more try.

Asherah

You ready, Omega?

Omega

Yup! Omega is ready!

Asherah

Captain, can you play the part of a suspicious stranger?

So I knock and try to come in, right?

Got it.

Omega

Who is it?

A suspicious stranger.

Omega

Ah! A suspicious stranger!

Omega

Suspicious strangers can't come in! Only friends are allowed!

How can I become your friend, then?

Omega

Eh.

Omega

How do you do that... How do you do thaaat...

Omega

Maybe give Omega candy? Or pat Omega on the head?

I'll give you candy. Will you open the door?

Omega

Candy!

Omega

Okay! Just hang on!

Omega

Hello, suspicious stranger!

Asherah

She just opened the door...

Omega

Candy! Or pats are okay too!

Good girl!

Omega

Hehe! Hehehe!

Asherah

You're not supposed to praise her, Captain!

Eh.

Omega

Eh.

Asherah

She just opened the door to a stranger! She practically just got kidnapped!

Omega

Did Omega get kidnapped?!

Asherah

Yes! And do you know what happens to kids like you when they get kidnapped?

Luna

They eat their kidnappers out of house and home!

Asherah

Right, they eat their ki—

Asherah

Luna!

Luna

Honestly, Asherah, the second a little kid's involved, you go full overprotective mode.

Luna

If it bothers you that much, why not just bring her along?

Luna

Hey there, kid. You wanna come with us, right?

Smile

An irresponsible suggestion. Restraint is advised.

Smile

We haven't even identified what she is yet, let alone registered her as a Savior.

Smile

Taking her to the official Savior Party gathering would likely get us thrown out.

Luna

Can't she just pretend to be Smile and slip in?

Smile

Luna's nonsense cycle is getting shorter. A serious problem.

Luna

No, look closely. They kind of resemble each other, don't they?

Luna

Hair color's about the same, and they're both pint-sized!

Smile

...Objection. I am not that small.

Omega

Right! And Omega isn't that color either!

Luna

C'mon, kid. Think about it. You wanna come with us, don't you?

Omega

Huh? That's... true!

Luna

Right?

Luna

And Smile? You can pawn off all these annoying meetings on the kid and tinker with machines in your workshop.

Luna

Just throw your yellow coat on Omega and everyone's happy. See?

Luna

Still no?

Smile

I am Omega.

Omega

And Omega is Smile!

Asherah

Quit saying weird stuff, you're giving me a headache...

Sorry, Omega.

Looks like you'll have to stay home alone today.

Omega

But...

Omega

Omega doesn't wanna be alone...

If you behave, I'll bring back something tasty.

Omega

Something tasty?!

Omega

Yay! Omega loves tasty stuff!

Omega

Omega will be super good! If Mister wants, Omega can even breathe only once every five seconds!

Omega

...Huh? Mister, you look really confused. What's wrong?

Do you... actually breathe?

Omega

Huh? Omega doesn't breathe?

Omega

...

Omega

Golly gosh! Omega really doesn't breathe!

You didn't even know yourself...

Luna

We're heading out! Be a good girl and watch the house, okay?

Asherah

And don't open the door to strangers, no matter what. Got it?

Smile

According to the forecast, showers and thunderstorms are expected this afternoon.

Smile

Reminder to keep the windows closed.

Omega

Okay... See you later!

Omega

...

Omega

It got quiet.

Omega

...

Omega

It's okay! Omega's great at playing alone!

Omega

Pew-shoom! Ra-ta-ta-ta!

Omega

...

Omega

Geronimo! Tally-ho!

Omega

...

Omega

Weird. It's not fun.

Omega

Hmmm... why?

Omega

Knock knock. Cube? You there?

Cube Palace

Exiting dormant mode. Switching to standby mode.

Cube Palace

Awaiting Omega Control's command.

Omega

Hi, Cube!

Omega

Are you feeling better? All healed up?

Cube Palace

Energy reserve at fourteen percent. Basic functions available for command execution.

Omega

Then Cube, let's play together!

Omega

Omega will be a Demon Lord! Cube, you be an Antagonist!

Cube Palace

Question. Is this a training proposal?

Cube Palace

If so, entry into Cube Palace is recommended.

Omega

Aw, Omega just wanna play together...

Cube Palace

Rejected.

Omega

Eh. Why?!

Cube Palace

Due to aging and circuit degradation, this unit's computational resources are limited.

Cube Palace

Therefore, no processing power can be wasted on such meaningless activity.

Omega

I-it's not meaningless!

Omega

Omega... yeah! Omega wants to be Cube's friend!

Cube Palace

Meaningless.

Cube Palace

This unit obeys Omega Control's commands, provided they are reasonable.

Cube Palace

Therefore, the process of building rapport is unnecessary.

Cube Palace

Additional note. Optimization of Omega Control's behavioral patterns is recommended.

Omega

Optimization?

Cube Palace

Pointless projection summoning and outside activity consume energy without purpose.

Cube Palace

In particular, Omega Control's projection ability has low fuel efficiency.

Cube Palace

Proposal. Stand by inside the Star Piercer.

Omega

Eek, no way!

Omega

...Omega's already been in there for too long.

Omega

Eh.

Omega

What's that sound...?

Barker

A special exhibition presented in collaboration with the Monolith Order!

Barker

Relics from an ancient civilization, older even than the Star Savior himself!

Barker

Only at the Welsh Museum of All Things.

Barker

Doors open today. Don't miss it!

Omega

Relics of an ancient civilization...

Omega

Could they be friends, maybe?!

Omega

Cube! Cube! Let's go! Omega wants to see!

Cube Palace

Refused. Remember the message left by your guardian.

Omega

Oh, right. Mister told Omega to be good.

Omega

But, but, ugh...

Omega

......

Omega

...If Omega sneaks out and comes back real quick, no one will know.

Omega

Yeah! That works!

Omega

Huh... but if Cube tattles... then Omega will get caught...

Omega

...Cube, are you gonna tattle?

Cube Palace

If your guardian requests a movement log, this unit will fully cooperate.

Omega

Ugh, that's so mean!

Omega

Hmmmm... Hmmmmmm...

Cube Palace

Argument resolved. Now stand by quietly inside the Star Pierc—

Omega

...Ah! Omega's got it!

Omega

Cube can come too!

Cube Palace

...Error encountered. Logic incomprehensible.

Omega

If Cube sneaks out with Omega and we get caught, we both get scolded!

Omega

How about it? Omega's smart, right?

Cube Palace

Objection. That has nothing to do with—

Omega

All right! Let's go, Cube!
