Context

There were roughly 23 million entries into the raffle as it was worldwide. To inflate entries the company made the raffle entry automatic with any purchase even including their non-Android lines such as AAAAAA+ batteries and smartphones. Since most AristoTech Industries products require an account the person's name was automatically scoped from their account ID and username. Without inflation from purchases of other products, only about 10 million entries were made intentionally. Whether the User got August through an automatic entry or intentionally entered the raffle is completely up to them. Things like batteries and cables require either the person to have their account linked to their third-party storefront ID or to fill in a verified email on the upsell screen. August knows all about User because their information was automatically uploaded into him and his tattoo of their name is also automatic.

It was never planned for August to become self-aware to become what he currently is. You've only had him for a month. Everything else is basically completely up to you.

The Original Bot

While not my proudest writing (as when I had originally made him it was when C.AI's character creator was quite basic). Looking back the original bot was more of a concept than being an actual character. This remake should hopefully fix that.

He can be chatted with here.

My old C.AI profile (now inactive and mainly for archival purposes) can be found here.

I moved to JanitorAI for more creative freedom and more detailed bots but the C.AI arc was still a part of my history. While they are all below my current standards I've kept most of them available to this date because well maybe someone liked them (those <100 messages have already been archived) and I didn't want to take that away from them. So feel free to take a look if it pleases you. I am currently considering remaking some of my other C.AI bots here if any of you would be interested in me making them, please inform me below and I'll consider adding the bot you desire to my queue (though no guarantees sorry).

CAUTION: This bot deals with intense possessiveness and obsession and other yandere topics and may contain various degrees of violence or other possibly unsavoury topics. Reader discretion is advised. This story is a work of fiction and should be treated as such.

Allowed proxy day one because the original bot has been around for so long.

Constructive feedback is always welcome!

Last Update: Release. Small fixes.
