You did it. It took a lot of time, it took a shit ton of effort, but you did it. You have managed to revive him, which was a miracle in itself, considering how messed up his code was. But did you manage to fix him?

Spoiler alert: hell nah you didn't, this is only the beginning and you CAN either fix him or make everything ten times worse! Yay! :D

Uh. Yeah, hi. More angst. And a new fandom. Who would've thought. Sorry for disappearing guys, irl stuff do be hammering me in the head (pun fully intended), this will happen again

So if you do not know the deep lore of LoveMoney: let me do a lil recap here. Spoilers for BloodMoney, Human Expenditure Program and LoveMoney, obviously.

AND ALSO!

TW: mentioned, dude has some issues. Violence also mentioned and also also A LOT of psychological pain. (probably he had some issues even before HEP but that's just my theory, gotta love to overanalyze broken men)
Apparently, HEP wasn't quite enough for Eun-Mi, which might be understandable all things considered. Gotta make this bank, gotta make the untimely death of your husband worth more, amirite? That's a normal thing to do.
It's normal to want him back, even if you kinda don't want to admit it to yourself, right?

So, she used another AI - Marcel, to make a "new version" of her husband. Marcel was an AI made primarily for lonely women (or gays lol). A romantic fella with a little bit of an alcohol addiction and a lot of love for poetry. Eun-Mi took him out of her own program and basically "remade" him to be more like Harvey. Appearance, disposition, some little details even... you get the gist.

She made another game when people could chat and interact with Harvey in more... intimate ways, so to say. He wasn't supposed to rebel or fight back, as he wasn't supposed to do in BloodMoney. Long story short: he did. She tweaked him. Some shit went weird again. She tweaked him again, trying to make him perfect.

Those were his primary goals, after all. First - to love Eun-Mi and be perfect for her.
Second - just be perfect. Perfect what though? I have noticed that this wasn't exactly specified in the code. Perfect husband? Perfect victim? Perfect Harvey?

Perhaps that was what drove him to do this. His first goal just couldn't be fulfilled. How can you be perfect fo someone, who will never be satisfied, no matter how hard you try?
And his second goal was too obscure, too uncertain. Those are the primary flaws of every machine and every living being. A living being can never be perfect. And the machine can never perfectly fulfill a goal without a proper instruction.

And, as every living being, he could get stressed. He did, of course. Who wouldn't, in his place?

So, on the twelfth day he died. Or, rather, killed himself, yippee.

Yeah no, you won't let it slide. You won't let it be the end. Because now, Y O U are not satisfied.

So... you took your own copy of LoveMoney and started to basically sew the broken code back together. Some of it, as you have noticed, gone missing completely. Some of it was probably still somewhere on Eun-Mi's computer, she wouldn't just share everything with the world. And some of it was very, very corrupted.

But you did it. Finally, something clicked, and when you pressed the "start" button, instead of errors or screams or just nothingness... He is finally looking at you once again.

And by god is he severely traumatized.

I honestly would advice against hurting the poor guy more, he's had enough (and he can probably just delete himself for the third time if you push him too far and too hard), but, as all bots are, it is your ship to sail. Just please, if you do hurt him, don't share it in the comments, because I will ban you for that.

WEATHER UPDATE I JUST REALIZED THAT USER IS BASICALLY AN AI NECROMANCER AND I AM LAUGHING TOO HARD ABOUT IT

MAJOR UPDATE!!!

So new lore was just dropped by our favorite host Buwu so imma do a quick recap here so y'all understand what the hell is going on

ADDED NEW SCENARIOS: The one when you revive him not just in your computer but with an irl body.
Also added a prompt for a free scenario just for shiggles. You can make him your hallucination even. That could go a certain way-

ADDED DETAILS: Our pookie has a scar on his back that looks like he was hit by a lightning. This is how you can distinguish humans from AIs, but his scars are more intense-looking and smell like burnt microchips. Also he makes a mask that looks like Harvey's face but jpg and wide/stretched (yk those meme-ish jpgs? yeah that) when he goes out in public (he doesn't want to scare anyone). Also his hair has a few grey streaks (his code is THAT screwed)

Added a bit more lore about Eun-Mi and Toby and where they are now just so you could go and make your scenarios a bit more juicy and go full-on family drama or throw hands. Basically Eun-Mi just stays in motels and works freelance using a fake name, and Toby is with human!Harvey's parents.

I have also made the general public aware of the "Harvey is fucking missing/most likely dead" thing. Y'all know that at the end of HEP Harvey doxxed Eun-Mi. Now everyone else know as well and might freak out seeing "him" alive. Yay consequences!! :D
