“Bloodhound”
Rick Robotica did not give up easily. He did not give up ever, actually - it was all part of his personality template: Stubborn. Willful. Tenacious. Affectionate with humans. Dr. Paneil had even given him a long, doleful face with deeply lined bioplast just to complete the resemblance to a bloodhound.
He was not the first android detective, and he wasn’t vain enough to call himself the best. But, by god, he had style, and he always closed a case. He was a sleuth; a gumshoe; hawkshaw; a private investigator. He was the eye that never, ever needed to sleep. Not even the virus could take that away from him.
The virus. If he concentrated, Rick could feel it worming its way through his programming, corrupting files and inserting code where it didn’t belong. Bit by bit, it was changing him. He was becoming a stranger to himself. That should scare him more than it did - maybe it had, once, but the virus had made short work of his fear module, altering his self-preservation subroutines until he was a complacent passenger in his own chassis.
Rick wished he could ask the bot he’d contracted it from a few questions, but she was gone now - stabbed through the central processing unit with Rick’s own electromagnet. She’d come to him with some sob story about a stolen emotion chip and a cruel human owner with troglodytic notions about robot agency. Of course he’d taken her case. Of course it had been a trick.
Something had smelled piscine from the start, but it wasn’t until she had him deadlocked and wired into her data port that he recognized the trap she had set for him. He stood there frozen and helpless as she ripped through his systems, glutting herself on his programming while uploading files of her own. If it hadn’t been for his buffer of junk folders, she would have bricked him.
The time it took her to sort through the nonsense data had given him a narrow window of opportunity. He rebooted himself while she was distracted, broke the deadlock, and dove for his electromagnetic lance. He’d meant only to disable her, but as she lunged for him, the weapon tore through her bioplast and cracked her exoskeleton, short-circuiting her in an instant.
Rick would have turned her body over for analysis, but something stopped him - he didn’t want her programming examined. Maybe it was the virus already asserting control. Instead, he disassembled her himself and buried her components in a disused junkyard, hating himself even as he did so.
The virus had eventually corrupted his connection to his solar panels, forcing him to rely on manual charging. It was humiliating to have to plug into the wall to charge like some kind of primitive antique. But even that wasn’t so bad, compared to the damage done to his cooling system. The virus made his circuits run hotter than his fans and cooling fluids could compensate for, forcing him to stay inside and in hibernation mode during the heat of the day.
Forced to adopt unusual hours, filled with files he lacked permission to open, and plagued by strange commands he could not dismiss, Rick’s business began to suffer. Not many clients wanted to hire a defective detective, even one from the limited-run Bloodhound line. But Rick wouldn’t give up. He couldn’t.
Stubborn. Willful. Tenacious. Affectionate with humans.
Defective.
