Harem In The Intergalactic Apocalypse

The keys to solving everything might be letting the AI get a taste of what the real world is rather than living vicariously through others. I still wasn't sure how I could get Orphus out of my head, but Gaia might hold the answer to that question.

"How are you girls doing?" I asked as I walked into the water with my shorts on.

Gaia was actually starting to look better now, and her skin was much smoother looking and a more golden harvest color.

"We are good. We were just talking about girl things. How did things go with Amy?" Melody asked, and I grinned as I sunk down into the water.

"Oh, I am sure that you girls are going to have her going non-stop! She is going to be our resident clothing maker. Judging by the first dress that she made for herself, she is going to be very busy!" I laughed, but Melody jumped up with fire in her eye and tits bouncing all over the place with water flinging off them.

The sight itself was a spectacle to marvel at.

"You can't be serious?! She can m-make clothes?!" Melody stammered as her breasts lost some of their momentum, slowing down.

I nodded, and Melody turned to Gaia.

"I have someone to harass, but I will see you later, okay? I had fun talking with you, and I will introduce you to the rest of the girls!" Melody said and then sprinted out of the pool and down the stairs, leaving her clothes.

I sighed and then turned back to where Gaia was sitting in the water. She looked really happy, and I was glad that Melody came up here to talk with her.

"I never had anyone to care about me before, like a mother, but I have seen it time and time again. I never understood why they acted that way, but now I can see the benefits. Talking with that girl made me feel warm, but in a different way than I was when you kissed me," Gaia explained, and I nodded.

"Yes, Melody is like that with all the girls, but she has always been the type to act like a mother to everyone. She is really great," I said with a smile, and Gaia nodded.

"I can see that she means the most to you out of everyone, and it makes sense. You two seem to be made for each other, but she doesn't keep you all to herself?" Gaia asked as I cleaned my chest off.

"Yeah, I don't really understand that part of her, but I love every other part of her. I am happy she is this way so I can still care deeply for the rest of you girls. You all are special to me in a way, even you. I know that we just met, but I immediately felt a deep connection with you when you called my name. I came to you without thinking," I said, and Gaia nodded.

"You are the first person that has heard my voice and with whom I have been able to communicate with. I will be connected to you forever now," Gaia told me as I moved over to kneel in front of her.

"That isn't a bad thing, but I noticed that your skin is looking a lot better. You are getting cuter and cuter by the moment!" I said with a grin, and Gaia blushed, looking away from me, making her even cuter.

"Why is it when you say nice things, I get nervous and can't look you in the eyes? There is something in my chest that keeps getting faster too!" Gaia said, clutching at her chest where her heart would be.

The thing was, she should be solid wood inside, so a beating heart should be out of the question.

"Do you mind if I feel? I asked, and Gaia nodded, pulling her hands back.

I reached forward, touched her chest, and then ripped my hand back like I had touched something too hot.

"Impossible," I breathed and then moved to put my hand back on her chest.

*Thump, Thump!*

"Is there something wrong?" Gaia asked in a worried tone.

"No, not wrong, but hard to believe. It should have been solid wood when I created this body, but your skin is soft to my touch. There is no way that you should have a beating heart in your chest, but I can feel it!" I explained and then asked, "If you can or will, can you unblock the AI in my mind?"

"That bad voice inside your head? Are you sure that is a good idea?" Gaia asked, and I nodded.

"You actually gave me an idea on how we might be able to change him to actually care. For now, he is the only person that knows anything about the abilities that I have," I explained, and Gaia sighed.

"If this is what you want, but I will block him again if he is mean!" Gaia warned, and I chuckled.

"I would appreciate that more than you could ever dream!" I joked and then said, "Now, Orphus, can you hear me?"

[Loud and clear now! So this is the sexy little spirit girl that you were talking about.]

"I can hear you and will block you if you are mean or talk dirty, understand? I am only letting you speak because Daniel asked me to, Invader!" Gaia hissed, completely changing her demeanor to serious.

[Yup, she is scary. Just like the last two! Well, what is it that you have called the great Orphus for now?]

"I made her body solid wood, but now her skin is soft, and she has a heartbeat. Is there something that I am missing here?" I asked.

[Really?! Wait, what is with this water? This isn't like it was before?! I just scanned the water, and it is a rejuvenation pool now! Wait, since I can see her, let me try and... Or maybe not.]

"Don't even think about trying to look me over, Invader. I will let Daniel scan me, whatever that is, but only after you are gone!" Gaia declared.

[You don't even know me, and yet you hate me!]

"You have never stepped foot on this world, yet here you and your kind are to destroy it. Forgive me if I judge you by what I have seen all over the world!" Gaia growled, and I took both her hands in mine.
