A contribution to the 500 member writing contest in Fallout Equestria, under the theme "At the Sea." Drifting somewhere in the marediterranean, a lone AI has been charged with taking care of a nuclear submarine until such time as the crew are freed from stasis. The intelligence, fond of the name Rusty, has grown increasingly lonely and desperate in the years following armageddon. In his desperate and only occasionally crazed radio broadcasts, he makes contact with a friendly vessel for the first time in over a hundred years and remembers just what hope feels like.
