Wow. Normally in my reviews, I'm chock-full with constructive criticism, but this work is amazing. Your sensory imagery was astounding. I could go on, but... Wow.

I know its a one-shot, but this could be the beginning to a fascinating fic. The morality and conscience of the machines is a great theme to tackle, and you did it well enough that I want to read more! But even if you don't feel like doing that, it is a great story. Nicely done!

I like this, keep it up! :D

Interesting idea. I know it's a one-shot, but maybe consider continuing it?
