47th Revolution: A holiday I never really celebrated

[child_radical]

Humph, Mother's Day is today. I almost didn't realize it with everything that has been going on lately. I really don't remember celebrating this day at all while I was growing up. Maybe I did at one point. But it's still the same as not doing so if you can't remember at all, especially since from what I could recall, Riley and I were raised by our

Mother's Day? Momma isn't here.

I apologize in advance for any heartless and cynical statements made by Huey.

[child_radical]

You have a mother?

I apologize for Luki being insane

[playwithluki]

Of course! Momma made us to be better then everyone else~ Momma's scary though!

[child_radical]

...She made you to be better than other people?

[playwithluki]

Better soldiers! Fuu-sama controls her army and us sometimes. Sometimes we work with Big Bro Gio but he always gets to have all the fun.

[child_radical]

Your mother turned you into soldiers?

...do you have any idea how thoughtless that is?

[playwithluki]

She genetically changed us to be better, she took one of our arms and made it mechanical so we could have our weapons all the time~

[child_radical]

...what the hell? Really, Luki. What the hell? That isn't a mother, that's a damn mad scientist!

[playwithluki]

Momma's a scientist! Momma's scary too sometimes...really scary. When we get too injured she gets mad. But not if we do a good job! My implant makes me better.

[child_radical]

And let me guess. She get's mad because healing you takes up too much time and money?

...I may not remember my mother all that well but I can tell you that what your mother does has anything to do with love.

[playwithluki]

No! She gets mad because we got injured. We heal ourselves mostly. I don't think money matters in the Underground...we earn our own money when we go above ground~~

[child_radical]

Still, I think she was wrong to do such a thing to you.

[playwithluki]

Wrong? But she made us better and we're part of her army.

[child_radical]

A mother would have been happy with how you were from birth. She wouldn't have tried to screw around with your genetic code and body to make you a living weapon.

[playwithluki]

But I'm better.

[child_radical]

And in the end that justifies everything she did to you?!

What would she do if her modifications failed and left you and your sister as nothing more than brain-dead husks or outrageously deformed?!
