Thinking about canonical mood ring circuitry again…
I think about that stuff ALL the time
like
do you suppose there are nuances of emotion conveyed in ways so subtle that only programs can see?
I mean the Encom circuitry is complex enough you could have a whole language encoded in “which parts are lit up in what color/brightness”
and if you add programs being especially sensitive to small differences in color, omg imagine how much they could convey
also on a semi-related note (me being a pun geek and pattern recognition program)
I wanna make some crossover joke about Doctor Who’s “chameleon circuit”
