Aether Zenith's Links
While they don't understand who Z-1 is or how he can reach them so frequently, they are still more than happy to spend time with this stranger when he crosses through their space! He's always kind, and seems to want to help them fix the cracks on their screens and crackly old radio speaker. Aether appreciates the concern this unknown caretaker shows them.
Z-1 has a fair few regrets about building Aether. They were only meant to be an AI assistant, but when the program went "dark" and stopped responding, he messed around with the code just... A little too much before leaving it alone. Years later, after his own incident, he came across Aether within a pocket of cyberspace. The now sentient assistant made its own form somehow, and though Z-1 expected them to be hostile, it seems instead they are simply.. Curious. And now he is, too, wanting to understand how something like this could happen. First and foremost, though, he wants to get the little AI patched up as a means to try and make up for what's happened so far. Even if Aether doesn't understand their situation.
