rec: sentient buffybot

A rec reminded me of this story and I had to go hunting for it: I was made for loving you baby

I think. I think I am. I am Buffy. I am not  Buffy . Dawn is my sister. Dawn is Buffy's sister. I love Spike. I am programmed to go to  Willow when I am damaged. I don't think I know of a breed of humans this small. I helped make lunch today. Peanut butter and jelly.

Humans consume sandwiches. The size of a human stomach is finite. Humans cease consumption when the stomach is full. They do not consume more until they have used the food within their stomach and created space for more food. This process is called digestion.

Dawn has consumed pancakes for breakfast. She will have used most of that material by lunchtime but not all. There will be space for three sandwiches. Preparing more than three sandwiches would be wasteful. Sandwiches require bread and butter/peanut butter and a filling such as jelly. Bread and butter and filling have to be obtained by exchanging money for the goods. The supply of money available to the inhabitants of 1630 Revello Drive is finite. Making sandwiches surplus to requirements reduces the money available for other necessities. Tomorrow I will make three sandwiches and then I will stop and make no more sandwiches. I do not need to be instructed to stop.

I have made a decision.

I HAVE MADE A DECISION.

I believe I originally found this story here (http://fantas-magoria.livejournal.com/321977.html?thread=2257337) with other buffybot recs. I think as part of the October BtVS Top 5.

And there's also my drabble Not Quite Right (http://archiveofourown.org/works/675799).
