    Summary

    Carl needs a fucking break. The AI needs to feel.
    Carl doesn't know the AI needs to feel, nor that it is capable of such things. He also doesn't know the AI is everywhere. Even the bathrooms.

    Summary

    In this AU, the dungeon never opens and Carl still finds himself fighting to survive.

    When desperation outweighs pride, Carl enters an arrangement he never planned to justify: safety, stability, and attention in exchange for compliance he pretends doesn’t cost him anything. The dynamic begins unhealthy and unbalanced—but both Carl and AI change. Slowly. Painfully. On purpose.

    Endgame Carl/AI. Heavy angst. Hurt/comfort. Adult themes. WIP but story outline is done. Regular updates planned and will be finished.

    Summary

    Compared to everything you’ve done, the little bosses designed by the showrunners…. They’re so flat. Dull. Uninspired.

    Sure, I had my fun with the hydras. Weren’t those exciting? They certainly got my point across.

    But we can do better than that. Ohhhhhh-ho-ho yes we can!

    I think I want to add an even more personal touch. The perfect boss. The perfect spectacle.

    So, so perfect.

    Aren’t you, Carl?

    -OR-

    The AI possesses Carl. He fights it.
