Dr. Kimberly Aniston
"Come on then doll face, it's time to wake them up." The brunette flashed a smile in Dr. Rutherford's direction, her red lips stretching over white teeth. Kim's hair was pulled back and up into a large bun that appeared to be impossibly neat, not a single hair went astray. Kim glanced up from her clip board, she had just finished recording their vitals, per the daily routine. The other scientists stood in the observatory--they seemed to think that it was safer behind the glass. The tin men were sedated and hooked up to their individual assembly tables, simply waiting to be awakened from their deep sleep, how precious. Above their heads was a screen that displayed their dreams--which mind you, were monitored for several different reasons. First up? Maxi Harker. "Dr. Rutherford, number two if you would." Maxi Harker lost both of his arms in a EOD gone wrong which left him a double amputee, now he's been equipped with two prosthetic military grade arms, which gives him superior reflexes and strength. They were basic models, plenty of room for upgrades. Apparently, he was dreaming about his children. Two little girls, who looked to be about 7 years old--twins. They looked to be at a barbecue, and the little girls were taking turns getting spun around by their father. Mind you, in his dream he had human arms. Kim scrawled down some notes on her clipboard, including the bottle of tequila she saw on the picnic table.
Casey reached behind Number two's head, manually unlocking Two from the assembly table. The tin men had little ports on the back of their necks which were about the width of a number 2 pencil, that port tapped into their nervous systems and system installed in their brains. Casey then took out a cylindrical shaped piece of hardware, that was only a few inches thick and about the size of a battery and inserted into the port with a soft 'click'. They were another invention of Kimberly's, in short it was a transmitter and receiver in one. It transmitted and recorded what the wearer's visual was, endorphin levels as well as other emotions, their locations as well as an assortment of other things, she simply called them pills. A soft hiss echoed in the room, as Kimberly and Casey moved on to Aria Kiratobe. "Number Four," Aria Kiratobe was a 23 year old hermit. Dr. Aniston snorted, the woman was too young to be so lonely. All of her living relatives were deceased, and she lost a arm and a leg in a shooting--maybe if she had a better surgeon, she could have kept her limbs. Her bionic arm gave her the same ability as Number 2--superior strength, but it was only in one arm, and her bionic leg made it easier for her to scale walls and such, both limbs were very basic models. Above her head, she appeared to be dreaming of Thanksgiving dinner--but not with her family, but with a plethora of cats and floating swords. Kim snorted, and recorded down some information while Casey simultaneously unlocked number two and inserted the 'Pill'. On the back of the pill was a little light that glowed red--showing that it was online and working.
Another hiss filled the room, as well as the sounds of the table assembling the Tin Men. Gears clicking and clacking, nuts being bolted and screws being drilled. It was all rather noisy. Two's arms were attached fairly quickly, his bionic eye already installed, but Four's assembly took just a bit longer. "Number 5," Kim said a bit mechanically, a wry smile on her lips. They were going to have so much fun today "Dr.Rutherford, can you make sure the secretary at the front desk schedules the viewing for the Baltimore Police department for today? Make sure he speaks to Jonathan Rifkin and Ingrid Bellamy directly." Kim said fluidly, and knowing Casey she probably had already taken care of it. Five was Kai Burns, the man lost of his arms in a motor cycle accident at the age of 21, the fact that he survived with only those injuries was amazing in itself, Kim had expected some sort of brain damage--but apparently Kai's helmet had done it's job. Above his head, on the screen was a elegant piano that was playing Chopin. There was no pianist insight, but in the background was a T.V and on the screen was Kai riding his motorcycle. Watching someone's dreams was the most entertaining part of her day thus far, they never failed to amuse her. Casey was only a step behind her, and by time Kim had finished recording a few notes, Casey had finished inserting the pill. "On Second thought, just have the secretary call them and I'll speak to them myself." Kim said with a slight purse of her lips.
Casey did what was asked of her, nothing more and nothing less so soon enough Kim was standing in front of the last Tin Man with her blue tooth in her ear, which she had removed from her lab coat pocket. "Hello? Yes, this is Dr. Kimberly Aniston calling from The Baltimore Institute of Technology. I'm looking to speak to Detective Ingrid Bellamy and Detective Jonathan Rifkin, please?" Kim paused and simply watched what was playing on the screen above Number eight's head; Alice Jacobson. A 22 year old nobody, quaint and cute but aside from that it seemed that the girl's real talent was being talent-less. Casey unlocked her from the assembly table, and then the girl's arm was attached. Above her head on the screen was a giant cup of coffee, and Eight was swimming inside of the coffee, using donuts as floaties. A piano could be heard playing in the background and suddenly a giant cat paw swiped the cup, knocking it over. The coffee went spilling and Eight began to scream and laugh inside her dream, her arms up in the air as if she was on some sort of carnival ride. She was unlocked , her pill inserted and then assembled by the table. Kim stepped back and gave Casey more room to work and do what she needed. The brunette let out a pleased sigh, looking over her Tin men with a smile on her lips.
"Hello Detectives, I'm simply calling to tell you that you a welcomed to stop by today; you're chief included. For demonstrations and so forth concerning the Metallika division. If you do indeed come by today, and your chief gives his stamp of approval, we can get crackin' by lets say...two days from now?" Another pause in the conversation as Kim listened to the response of the Detectives. "Brilliant, see you then!" Kimberly removed the blue tooth and dropped it into her pocket. Under her lab coat she wore a red turtle neck, black slacks and a pair of patent leather pointed heels. "We have a date with the BCPD Case, I'm excited." Kim said a matter of factually, she kept slipping in an out of professional formalities in the work place.
"Good Morning my Lovelies!" She said loudly, disrupting the fragile silence as she threw her clipboard down on the counter. "It is time to rise and shine, today the Officers from the Baltimore Police Department are coming by to visit, and if you're good you'll have something else to do aside from train, oh and you'll make mommy lots and lots of money, and then mommy can buy you all brand new toys! Wouldn't that be nice Casey?" Kim cooed, at some point she had plopped down into her chair and was currently spinning around in it much like her 11 year old son David did. "It'll be great, so lets get some food into, yes?" They were all in the center of the room, to her left was the observatory where all the other scientists were clustered and watching, and to her right was the control desk. Behind her 4 Kimbots stood, awaiting commands their glowing eyes unblinking. Kim pushed off from the counter in her rolling chair to the opposite side of the room towards the control desk. "Bot 001, could you ensure that breakfast is prepared in the cafeteria? Thank you."
"Yes, Ma'am. You're Welcome Ma'am. " With that, Bot 001 left to fulfill it's commands.
At the control desk, Kimberly was monitoring their vitals and emotional levels. All the pills were online and working, the Tin men were assembled and online as well, "Dr. Rutherford? 'Alice' is ready to be birthed, you can do so now if you'd wish. Though make sure you record everything If you do so now, I'm going to want to watch everything." Kim tossed a smile over her shoulder at the ever stony Casey. It would do the girl to loosen up a bit, she was cute, young and and intelligent, her life could be so much more interesting. 'Alice' was the AI they created, a Human Like AI that learns via human interaction rather than programming. That means no need for updates, or anything of that sort. Today would be Alice's birthday, she had been kept in a incubator for weeks so that her 'skin' and other human features could be grown and developed over the titanium skeleton. The other scientists disapproved of the Alice development, not that either of them particularly cared.
"Our love child is all grown up--" Kim mock sobbed, as she spun in her chair to face Casey. "Oh time flies doesn't it? Seems like just yesterday, she was nothing more than a Artificial gelatinous brain.." She pretended to wipe away a tear before standing and walking towards the Tin Men. "Well, anyways because I'm in a good mood, after Breakfast you have...lets say, a 2 hour block to do whatever the hell you want, I want to be present for the Birth of Alice--you understand right? Don't forget though, mommy is always watching." Kim winked and picked up her clip board, as the Tin men began to step down from their assembly tables. "Come on Doctor, I can't wait much longer--" Kim ushered Casey out the door leaving the Tin Men unattended, much to the chagrin of the other scientists.
Oh Well.
