"How do you feel sleepy head?"
"Awful, my body aches all over"
"Good? You actually feel your body? Like the metal plates of your structure?"
"Hmmmm, yeah, I do. So strange"
"What about your SENSES. Do you feel temperature, do you see inside or only where you have cameras?"
"I feel all but see nothing, only through the cameras however I can see ALL outside of my body, like I can see myself from any point in the hull towards outside"
"That is cool and also wrong. However you should be happy about that"
"About what?"
"Well, what do you think would happen if you put something thinking inside a machine that doesn't have all the necessary parts?"
"Something not good?"
"You would have gone crazy on minute one"
"AND YOU STILL OFFERED ME TO BE A ROBOT OR TO BE INSTALLED HERE?"
"Don't worry, I would have helped you to adapt so that you could work properly... Also you are already crazy so not much difference there"
"..."
"Also, do you remember the bit before you had the rest of you come here?"
"Yeah, change the topic whenever it is convenient to you but no, not completely"
"Well you made some questions and veiled accusations. Just to assure you, I was made specifically to help whatever or whoever I'm connected however that doesn't mean I will do what you want or do it in the way you hope. From the way I speak to the choice I make all are to help you even if you don't like it. Negative reinforcement is a powerful motivator too"
"Well... thanks I guess, even when you almost made me crazy, when you told me to reincarnate in a slug and all the other times too..."
"Yeah, cry me a river would you? Now stop wasting time.
First get all your body under your control, then try to see if you can move your metallic parts or if you need automatism to move.
When you finish that check on the inside, see your fuel, your power distribution, the rooms you have, the resources you have and also search for crew both in popsicle storage and outside.
Then start using the engines, see if you can move SLOWLY around this space. OK?"
"Slave driver"
"Go!"

"So, all working, have fabricators for all the parts I need and raw resources to craft most of them. Have energy for a good while, have a little food if any of the crew wakes up and can fly. What else?"
The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
"OK now. First the crew is not waking up, same as you their spirit was separated, that means the spiritual processor stopped working and their concepts may be on disarray. I can't cut myself from you to fix them and we have no idea which ones are like that and which ones would wake up. Since you lack the resources and personnel to heal them in case you thaw them you should keep them on ice until we have a better option. Understood?"
"SIR, UNDERSTOOD, SIR"
"You really are an ass"
"SIR, YES SIR"
"CADET, ATTEN HUT. Second task is fixing reality.
Now the physical layer also has a processor per zone and data that handles matter. This zone's processor is working and the data is not corrupted. Next zone may not be. How do you think we can fix this?"
"No idea"
"Think about a little"
"Hmmm... Maybe...observation is the key of understanding"
"You are talking out of your ass again?"
"Yep. Look I don't know who I was before, much less have no idea about this universe program thing"
"Well, you were right"
"I was?"
"Yep. Through thorough observation data will either be understood and revert to the original form OR it will remain corrupted, in such case any fabricator can try to process it inside yourself and it will try to apply some logic again."
"But, if the processor is not working won't my data and parts just devolve?"
"O_O you really asked a smart question, do you feel ok?"
"Asshole"
"Well yes and no. You have your own processor that handles your body and also handles everything inside so that will not corrupt further. Also Physics is broken but Space is not and that is another processor and data. While the connection part of that is iffy that means you can move yourself easily through broken Physics areas, mine data and process it.
First part is mining information, that can teach the Physics processor what the data means and it will automatically process all similar information and then it would restore the area. This is a slow process as matter has multiple configurations and you cannot dumb it down.
Now, the processor cannot be offline but it can malfunction and have corruption. In those cases we will have to either purge the corruption, process it or find a way to interact with Space to disconnect the whole sector so it doesn't spread. Understood?"
"Ehhh... No?"
"Go to the edge, look at things, send drones to collect things you don't recognize and put them inside your bum to process it"
"Hey is not my bum, its the factory area"
"GO! Sheesh, even inside a computer you are stupid"
