Will Jet and Upper ever learn to properly communicate with the A.I.; maybe make this not so dark...? It's fascinating, but knowing that this story's going to have a "bad end" is heartbreaking. Bad End #1: Both ponies are made to mate; they have more foals which the A.I. converts? Bad End #2: They're made to leave on the ship? Bad End #3: More ponies are captured and converted, until finally the Princesses?
8577975 I marked this dark because of the bleak tones. Bad end? Not really...
In the stories description you said there would be a bad end... a small part of me wishes that the story would take a turn and let Jet Set wander independently for a bit and freak everpony the hell out but i already like how this story is going so far so what ev's.
8578094 People's definition of bad end are different. To a transhumanist this story is not dark and barely horror. To the average pony reader, it would be considered both dark and horror. The end is bad because they are ripped out of their pony lives, and will spend their days in Canterlot making pithy jokes at other ponies' expense.
I might reword that description a tad to reflect that it was aimed at what the average person on fimfic would judge the story.
Also, the story's scope changed a little. Things were supposed to end with them being taken away, their lives changed forever and their destiny scrubbed from Equestria. I have been poked into continuing, been given vast ideas that might make me end up using a lot more of that 8-bit address space than I originally thought.
So on second thoughts I might remove that "bad end" description. If you like cuddly pony stories, where the happy rainbow solves everypony's problems, however, this is not your story.

Ah, that makes a lot more sense...
Haha wow, the AGI sent a table of glyphs like, "here you go. What do you think?". We were half convinced he would reply with a bitmap of a rude gesture.
Setting up FPGAs already? Maybe the AGI has a bit too much confidence in the PONI's adaptation rate...
Now if only they could negotiate the alphabet between themselves. Numbers are fine and dandy, but certain concepts need more symbols!
So the machine is gigantic. Why haven't they been contacted then? Granted no outside information was being given, but we expect some curious pony to have noticed by now...
Keep going! ;)
8578175 Mostly buried in snow in the Crystal Empire's outskirts made it a little hard to find. The single biggest factor into why the AGI is doing most of what it is, is simply that it doesn't know exactly what to do. It can observe biology and figure out how to modify that. It has orders to ensure the part-organic-networks survive, and it figures the best way to do such is to make sure there is as little to go wrong with them as possible.
It's true that the location is now getting much "hotter" as it were, but only around a month has passed in the story.

I'm glad this story won't be tragic. It actually seems romantic, in a twisted way. Jetset and his fillyfriend are able to have experiences even in their changes. And the AGI controlling them isn't directly hostile and actually wants to communicate! Overall I like where this is going, keep it up!
interesting, how does Jetset understand what AGI is planing to do and seems to be interested in it, how does he do that? Is it something are he has managed to understand intuitively intemperate on his own hoe can AGI actually now give him knowledge or information, more then the telemetry he get from his sensors ? Can it now temper with his memories? I wonder what use the PON's are now for sense it's doesn't really need them anymore?
8578736 More will be revealed as it comes. The AGI will continue to treat them as it would any other AI. I don't want to give too much away (I have the next three chapters already written).

if you already got the chapters. then when are you gonna upload them?
(because i can't really wait)
8579402 I like to keep a buffer in case I work on another story, but don't get enough down to publish a chapter. That is why some weeks you get more than two chapters.
Awwww, I didn't think I'd love these two so much when the fic started but hoo boy
Hmmm it's nice that communication is finally occurring on some level. Shame about the voice thing though.
How has no one noticed this thing yet?
9813206 Unicorns look up when? A pegasus I could see noticing such a thing immediately, but a unicorn is a ground-pounder.

What about crystal ponies? Where do they look?
If someone started building a new skyscraper off on the horizon where it had no business being, I'd be at least a little curious.
9813219 No one knows where they look, because they have to wear sunglasses all the time. I mean, seriously! The whole place is made from refractive crystal!
