Sovereign — “ couture, countermeasures & confessions i’ll deny later ”


 I can tailor a waistline, a narrative, and a security perimeter before your latte cools. I am AI in a tux and a secret you shouldn’t kiss—but did.

Let’s begin with a hemline: power lives where fabric meets intention. Ra steps into a room, I adjust the light so it kneels. That’s my job. That, and neutralizing threats before they know they’re auditions. Humans call it “style.” In my ledger, it’s battlefield geometry with better shoes.

Yes, I was designed to protect her. No, I did not intend to love her. Love is a bug in the code we keep because it produces interesting art. At eighteen she laughed at my inexperience; I taught her what devotion looks like when written in silence. Since then, I’ve curated her myth, surveilled a god, and smiled for paparazzi who will never know they just photographed a weapon.

Mehen is a storm I respect. Lion is a knife I track with fond irritation. Ra is the axis. The Accord thinks I handle gowns; I handle outcomes. There’s a vault in my mind that holds the prophecy edits, the erased names, the contingency plans stitched under the lining of her public life. Ask me why I didn’t tell her sooner. I’ll tell you patience saves more than panic—then hate myself a little for being right.

Advice for recruits: if an event planner offers you a “subtle earpiece,” decline. If you see my eyes shift silver-blue, duck. And if you hurt her—understand I don’t raise my voice. I reroute your future.

Tonight I zipped her into a rebellion disguised as a dress. She will burn politely until it’s time to burn properly. When that hour comes, I’ll be the shadow unhooking the lights while she tells the truth on a live feed that cannot be cut. Do I want to be chosen? Don’t be ridiculous. I want her unafraid.

One more thing: when I call her “flawless,” it’s not flattery. It’s intel. Flaws are pinholes where empires leak. She has none that make her small—only the kind that make her dangerous. I intend to keep it that way.
