Julie 4000 liked to invent things, nice helpful devices to make everyone’s day-to-day lives that little bit easier. “At last my new satellite detection system is working, it can find any approaching asteroids or comets, as well as help guide any nice visitors safely down to the spaceship landing zone in Hull.”
“Mind if I clean in here?” Olive.386 was proud of her creative daughter-droid but worried that she never did enough tidying up after herself. “There’s a lot of dust in here too.”
“Sorry Mummy,” Julie 4000 apologized. “I never notice it when I’m working.”
“There’s a lot of dust on this screen” Olive.386 tried spraying it with her harshest cleaning product, but it didn’t shift the dots of dust.
“That’s not dust” Julie 4000 panicked “that’s an invasion fleet, and judging by the slaughter formation it’s a Raithaduine fleet, we have to alert everyone to evacuate. We should probably tell the humans something too.”
“First though I’m going to give this carpet a really good clean. Imagine if a Raithaduine murder squad came in here to kill us both and they saw this carpet? I’d die of shame before they could tear me to pieces.”
“Some perspective” Julie said to her mother-board “we’ll have sold the house to some humans by then, it’ll be their problem, and not ours.”
“I suppose you’re right” Olive.386 replied “we’d better start tidying up now, so we can get the house put on the market.”
“I’ll have a quiet word with my friend Molly’s mother-board, she works for that strange non-human guy, he can inform the humans, that way we won’t get the blame for anything.”
