My Hero Automata (137-139)
Added 2025-06-16 04:59:17 +0000 UTCWhew! Made it...probably! It's 11:54 as I type this, so it will either be just barely on the 15th that was my target, or a few minutes late! Well, one way or the other its here. Just over 10,000 words, with a bit of a twist for the story that I'm not sure how most will feel about it? I kinda made a liar out of past self, though in my defense, my past self very much believed what he said. The only reason it changed was because you lot voted for us to shift gears towards pushing the industrial/engineering aspect of the story instead of the Guild, which had been my originally mapped intention. Anyway, more on that in the comments as an Author's note, don't want to spoil it before you read the chapters, after all!
As always, the new chapters are attached here in various formats. While you can find the Master Files containing the entire story in the Pinned Post. Enjoy!
P.S. Don't forget that this story now needs to win the monthly poll to progress, make sure to vote if you haven't yet.

Hope…a simple but powerful Force. And something that’s been enough to turn the most ordinary of men and women into the most extraordinary heroes. Edit 1: The scary part, of course, was that Kiyomi “new”… The scary part, of course, was that Kiyomi “knew”… Edit 2: Ah, the look on her daughter’s and Momo’s “face” was perfect. Ah, the look on her daughter’s and Momo’s “faces” was perfect. Edit 3: …you had space in, while, space… …you had space in, well, space… Edit 4: …Now, when “to” I start killing stuff?… …Now, when “do” I start killing stuff?… Edit 5: Even if the woman seemed “remarkable” stable… Even if the woman seemed “remarkably” stable… Edit 6: …just right to push off “an” capture… …just right to push off “and” capture…

2025-06-30 12:21:15 +0000 UTCAs to the other androids, check Chapter 138 Author's Notes - AN 1 here in the comments for an explanation :-). As for the possibility of 6O and 2B, I actually am considering that possibility, but haven't decided if I want to explore the idea or not.

2025-06-25 03:37:16 +0000 UTCSo I had finally time to read the new chapters....... I like the outside pov it makes me almost want a pov from some people more removed from the mcs but higher up in military command or politics to see how they are perceived from that kind of view Ah new androids I was seriously surprised as as you stated in your notes that you said we would 100% not get any other nier characters but it kind of makes sense how that came 2B ....... Also I wish 2B had full backups of Devola and Popola somehow ....those two would really help and deserve a second chance ...... I look forward to seeing more also perhaps 6O should date 2B ...... Mh 2B or not 2B.....that is the question

2025-06-24 16:01:40 +0000 UTC:-p. I'm not sure I can write those two in the same place without the computer exploding to save itself ;-). Glad you liked the different viewpoint. I thought it was both a good way to get an outside perspective on just how gigantic what they've actually done already is (since Momo and Izumi both treat it is normal), while also building up one of Momo's parents a bit. Since we don't even have names for them from canon, I haven't done much with them directly.

2025-06-21 12:09:31 +0000 UTCI loved Kiyomi's retrospective on Momo's life. Also, 6O 100% needs to meet Kiki and Akira (mostly Kiki so they can drive Akira nuts together).

2025-06-20 19:43:21 +0000 UTCYeah, still kinda bummed about that, since this story had a solid chance of wrapping up by the end of the year with regular updates. As is, who knows...

2025-06-16 22:51:20 +0000 UTCSort of. Since they are no longer connected to her Quirk, though, it would be a massive stretch that would entirely too probably be caught eventually.

2025-06-16 22:50:14 +0000 UTCIzumi wouldn't technically have to lie in saying that her sentient Quirk awakened and now she has more sentient like beings that were stored in her that were unable to come out until she reached a certain point to awake in them

2025-06-16 16:20:20 +0000 UTCAdding more Androids really is something I was hoping to see so I'm glad it's been added. And yeah activating 9S seems like a gargantuan mistake, best to never do that. Shame the updates will slow down on this now. Really want to see this to the end.
