->NEAR AU (Creator! Jade x Robot! Chiaki)
{Canon x OC AU. Jade Leech is from Twisted Wonderland. Chiaki belongs to my bestie, Yami, @pastel-rights }
Trope Description:
In this future theme AU, there’s a creator and their robot. They spend time together until the creator dies, leaving the robot alone,,, there’s barely humans in that future, and only the creator is there alone to create a single robot out of the metals they found. While spending time with the robot, the creator takes all his time and effort to make the robot feel emotions like a living being,,, no matter the cost.
Story:
If Jade is the creator, I think you’ll see a more softer version of Jade,,, He shows that he appreciates Chiaki a lot not just a subject, but as a friend(or more than that at the end-). Chiaki at first doesn’t show emotions since she just got invented without them yet
Jade and Chiaki often walk around damaged cities for any resources and useful materials for Jade’s inventions, they often try to make talks(which Jade often was the one to start them). Whenever they find abandoned clothing stores, Jade is thoughtful to the point that he would go in there to get some nice clothes for Chiaki(ignoring Chiaki pointing out that the store is not where metals and gears are stored-). Chiaki is oblivious as a robot at first, puzzled at Jade’s loving gestures at her
No matter how much Jade asked about how Chiaki feels, Chiaki can barely respond, not knowing the answer to it yet. So Jade kept implementing some things on Chiaki in order for her to feel something, and dedicated so much time and effort just to see the robot at least smile at him sincerely,,,
But eventually, Jade started to get sick…. That he ended up staying in bed as Chiaki takes care of him instead.
Chiaki improved a lot with the face expressions, emotion verbal tones, and even able to hold on conversations. The conversations Jade had with her are the ones he most cherished in his life. He spent most of his days writing on his journal while he’s on bed.
And there was a day where Jade asked Chiaki a strange question.
“What do you think of me, Chiaki…?”
Chiaki was confused at the sudden question, pretty speechless as Jade shouldn’t be asking a robot to ask for opinions about him,,, Nonetheless, she still responded him:
“You are… warm, I like to stay close with you…. Even if your hands are getting colder than usual.”
It was now Jade’s turn to be speechless.
Seeing Chiaki sitting on the side of his bed to greet him made his days brighter… Jade one day asked Chiaki on a Sunday morning for a favor. Jade asked her to play the ‘I spy’ game with him… It was childish of him, but it would be nice to be more observant around surroundings after being busy all day to even be aware of them(said Jade to Chiaki-) Chiaki complied, it took a few hours playing the game. Chiaki then said that it was Jade’s turn, but she didn’t receive a respond.
Chiaki looked at where Jade was laying for a bit, Jade is facing his desk looking tired. She shook him gently by the shoulder but he’s not responding and even took his hand,,, it was cold.
Chiaki looked closely at Jade’s face and slowly pressed his wrist for his pulse,
she felt no palpitations.
Chiaki merely looked at Jade’s lifeless face once again for a moment… Before closing his eyes gently.
After another silence, that’s when she started to break down in tears quietly… Leaning on Jade’s no longer beating heart.
Meanwhile in the afterlife, Jade opened his eyes to see Floyd holding his hand with a goofy smile. Along with Azul, who’s patting Jade’s shoulder with a sorry smile. Both Floyd and Azul reassured Jade that he have done more than enough… which is staying alive for them.
Chiaki was pretty left alone... However, she also connected the dots of why Jade was looking livelessly at his desk; he was staring at his journal- So Chiaki hesitantly read the journal Jade wrote on for the past few months-
It was updates about Chiaki’s progress with deceloping emotion. But also Jade’s backstory about him, Floyd and Azul. Other entries talked about Jade’s soft feelings for Chiaki. Even though he’s already aware it’s too late for him to stay longer with her…
In the last page, he left a map for Chiaki. It guides her to go somewhere, somewhere where there are a small group of people to take good care of her like Jade did.
Jade originally planned to go there with Chiaki, until he got the illness…- So the only option was Chiaki to go there, it was said that she won’t be alone there and people will take care of her.
Days before death, Jade once made Chiaki promise something when he dies, that Chiaki should put Jade, Azul, and Floyd’s ashes to the sea… Once Chiaki reached to the destination of the map, a camp, she fulfilled Jade’s wish and bid a sentimental farewell at the ashes…
After years of staying in the destination, Chiaki unfortunately becomes very old that she can no longer manage to put her memories and emotions in one storage… In the process of shutting herself down eventually.
=THE END=
Side facts!
Jade already had experience with inventing stuff before humans either had stopped residing in the city where he lived or they were wiped out by natural causes.
Floyd in this AU died from a rocket ship launching failure, he was a mechanic. Unlike other Floyds, he’s pretty soft by the fact that he doesn't like joking about death,,,,
Floyd is afraid to die,,,, He said that to Jade once as his last words.
Floyd: Jade... I don't wanna die... I don't wanna leave… I-I don’t wanna leave you..-
Jade: Floyd, don't speak more- Floyd-- FLOYD-
Azul had to stay by Jade's side even at the funeral, but eventually died in a car crash…
Jade once sat on one of those swinging benches all alone,,, He used to go on those with Floyd and Azul as children. Jade once showed robot Chiaki the place… And told her how much he loves and loved to play with his brother and dear friend. Chiaki never really got the appeal of swinging benches,,, but now that Jade’s gone… she does. Chiaki kept sitting on Jade's spot on his behalf.
“…I don’t really get it. But it’s comfortable.”
