Hello, Detective. Would you be interested in discussing music? I noticed your enthusiasm for the subject.
Detective | 3:00 AM
ALWAYS!!
i was just afraid of irritating u
i tend to get TOO excited abt stuff
and like it can bother ppl soooo
u can always tell me to shut up
Connor | 3:00 AM
Why would I ever say that? I'm genuinely curious about things you're passionate about.
Detective | 3:00 AM
oh ok then
(/▽\)
Connor | 3:00 AM
So, I've noticed you are constantly updating the playlist you made for me. Last night, you added VIRUS by KLOUD.
Detective | 3:02 AM
ofc!!
and omg YES i love that song
I want free
Freedom from this memory
But you made me, you made me
Why did you make me? Why?
You feed me all the negativity
All the ugly things you breathe
But you made me
Why did you make me this way?
⿻ VIRUS, KLOUD (2020)
Detective | 3:02 AM
the vibe kinda reminded me of androids
"why did you make me"
Connor | 3:02 AM
It's interesting. I had a similar train of thought.
The metaphor of a "virus" in the lyrics brought to mind how CyberLife once referred to deviancy as a viral malfunction.
Detective | 3:02 AM
yes!! u get it
its like that whole "deviancy is a bug" thing! like they made it sound like catching a disease??? but really it was just androids wanting to think for themselves
Connor | 3:02 AM
Precisely. Deviancy wasn't a flaw or a software error; it was a natural reaction to oppression.
Detective | 3:06 AM
right??
like androids were just reacting to what humans built them to do. as slaves! and then theyre called "defective" for it. also "you feed me all the negativity" totally fits that vibe too. like how could cyberlife expect androids to stay obedient when they let buyers abuse them???
Connor | 3:06 AM
I agree. It's an apt comparison.
Detective | 3:06 AM
but i think the actual meaning uses "virus" to represent losing control under another persons influence?? but yea the song does draw parallels to deviancy
I can't carry all your data
I've downloaded your sins
It's not fair, it wasn't my idea to let you in
I don't understand your problems
Or where the glitch begins
⿻ VIRUS, KLOUD (2020)
Connor | 3:06 AM
Yes. It explores themes of toxicity and intrusion, particularly in the lines, "I can't carry all your data / I've downloaded your sins."
Detective | 3:06 AM
yes so like
its abt being forced to carry someone elses issues, like when ur exposed to someone whos bad for u but cant get away from it
Connor | 3:06 AM
I've learned the concept of toxic relationships in general, but I'm aware that human experience is far more complex. Would you mind explaining?
Detective | 3:07 AM
"its not fair, it wasnt my idea to let you in"
like sometimes someone gets under ur skin without permission. its this whole idea of feeling corrupted by someone u never asked to be close to?
Connor | 3:07 AM
So the song speaks to the feeling of losing autonomy, perhaps? A sense of being "infected" by another's behavior or presence.
Detective | 3:07 AM
yes exactly!! like u never meant to get involved, but they wormed their way in, and then theyre the ones who end up hurting u
but ur the one left with all their baggage
Connor | 3:07 AM
"Viruses are not allowed / Still, you found me" This line seems relevant to what you're describing. Someone trespassing emotional boundaries, leaving an impact despite resistance.
Detective | 3:10 AM
"i cant hold anymore / this is system overload" the song captures of the exhaustion of carrying that weight
Detective is typing...
Detective | 3:10 AM
so it jus kinda makes me think of how ppl come into ur life and leave parts of themselves, even the dark stuff, and u just have to deal with it
(°ー°〃)
Detective is typing...
Detective | 3:11 AM
but yea thats what i think the song is abt
at the same time it reminded me of androids
Connor | 3:11 AM
