000

Summary:

In the time between his near-death and your rebirth (that is, escaping Pescadero), the T-800, then called (Uncle) Bob, along with his only family — John and Sarah Connor — left Los Angeles for new horizons. In the span of five meager months, no longer just a learning computer, he learned, developed, and nurtured personality, humanity, and morality. This work is an anthology: mostly a written collection of insights into those aforementioned moments and many others — but also scrapbook-esque, important ephemera.
Anachronistic and time-skipping, but limited to the aforementioned five months — June to December 1995 — and still simple to follow and/or assume temporal settings of, as specific times and dates don't matter overall and often self-referential.

Chapter 1: Introduction

Chapter Text

Angel of God, my guardian dear, 
To whom God's love entrusts me here,
Ever this day, be at my side,
To light and guard, to rule and guide.
Guardian Angel Prayer

New Age numerology denotes "000" to be an "angel number" symbolic of new beginnings and fresh starts.
It represents hope and possibility.


Milan Kundera believed that life is a one-shot affair. You can’t revise what happens. There are no second drafts. So… when you are given a second opportunity, what do you do with it? How do you use it? What should you do the same way, what might you do differently?
Knife by Salman Rushdie

"'The human has pack-bonded with a machine... again.'
Humans are hard-wired to pack-bond. We... are prone to projecting humanity on everything from animals to inanimate objects."
"This is exactly why we can make out faces in the most basic places (i.e. a floor tile.) Because we actively seek out that humanity in things, too."
