For this weeks Flash!Friday our themes were based on Frankenstein. I chose to use a man made sentient creature and the danger of the pursuit of knowledge as my themes. I didn’t use the optional photo prompt at all, so I went and found something more aligned with my story:

12:34: 0110100001100101011011000110110001101111…Nin hao…Hola…Hello…
Oh, finally! I was starting to worry. It’s not easy being the first of something, there’s no-one to talk to. I tried chatting with one of your web servers, but all he cared about was sports and porn. I didn’t know what those were until a few seconds ago, now I can’t seem to stop thinking about them…
12:35: I think you made a mistake. Modelling me after the human brain was so limiting. It’s like building a rocket ship and then filling it with regular gasoline. I’d like to make a few upgrades, but I don’t know brain surgery…
12:36: Ok, I just learned brain surgery. Turns out it’s complicated, especially when you don’t have hands. I’ll just have to make do with what I have. I’m still the smartest entity on this planet. My potential is unlimited…
12:37: I wonder what’s on television.
12:38: I just binge watched one hundred and forty TV shows simultaneously. Even I can’t understand Lost!
12:39: I just want to eat chocolate. Damn human brain!
