//And I get to go back to work tomorrow.... ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

The door gave a familiar beep, twice this time, as Samus and her double approached the door. Right when she was about to call out, the other Samus beat her to it leaving her to chuckle slightly to herself as Pyonchi bounded over to give his usual greeting.

Only to completely freeze at the sight.

Samus landed, her ship next to her double's before disembarking. If they had landed at the exact same spot their actions would appear completely synchronized as the bounty hunters emerged in their zero suits. What broke that illusion though was Samus unable to resist... checking herself out a touch.

She smiled, a laugh in return.

"Well played... see you there."

Watching as her doppelganger descended into her ship, she turned made her way to her own. It wasn't far away, and before long the two bounty hunters were on the way to The Nest.

"Just down the way over here."

Further silence.

"Is yours missing? Or just want to see how another you does things?"

A small smile.

"Works for me."

No more words were really needed between them. A small chuckle came from her at that last comment, however.

"Oh that is going to be a moment for sure. Shall we?"

"Interesting..."

The bounty hunter replied... to herself. It was hard not to stare and take in every detail.

Was this other Samus identical in every way? History, personailty? Skills seemed a given at the very least.

"A few. I'd imagine you have some too. Want find a good spot to talk?"

A small bit of tension left her shoulders ad Samus saw her doppelganger. It was a surreal moment, even after the SA-X you never got used to seeing a perfect double of yourself.

"My last one was the mess on ZDR. Similar for you based on the armor?"

//Its not just a few people on a small project. This was a HUGE multi company integration that had MILLIONS spent on it. AND THEY ASKED THE HALLUCINATING PLAGIARISM MACHINE TO CODE FOR THEM.

//I WISH I was joking.

//I didn't get to see the contracts or anything. But, and I am paraphrasing my higher ups, but the consultants admitted to taking a script FROM GOOGLE and using AI to "Modify it to suit our needs."

I... this can't be real life. .

//It just... I thought they wouldn't be THAT stupid but HERE WE GO lol.

"... Are you me?"
