Whispers Of The Machine | HFY | A short Sci-Fi Story

[@smokinggnu6584]

That's a techpriest. Edit: PRAISE THE OMNISSIAH!!

[@BaseDeltaZero1972]

Operates more like a Techno-Mage from Babylon 5... "We are dreamers, shapers, singers, and makers. We study the mysteries of laser and circuit, crystal and scanner, holographic demons and invocations of equations. These are the tools we employ, and we know many things."

[@mikeloeven]

Ah yes displeased machine spirit common cause or malfunction easily fixed with the proper litany and application of holy oils

[@Gorf2003]

I still wonder how aliens would react if they heard the Cant Mechanicus - you know, the "From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh..." - for the first time.

[@raptor22o90]

We are already saved

[@Shadow.Dragon]

As an engineer, I approve this story!!! 🙂

[@robgrenzeback3425]

Sounds like a HFY story crossover with SCP & Warhammer 40k.

[@valtiel2589]

By the Light of the Void, by the Law of the Machine, by the Will of the Men Who Endure.

[@chrisharvie-smith486]

"Turning it off and on again" fixes a wealth of faulty misbehaving software/hardware/etc but it also definitely works better for some people. Be nice & make use of them rather than soldier on painfully 'cause you won't admit help is required.

[@scottbrowder8304]

i just wanna say thank you for linking and crediting the original author. so many of these channels constantly spring up and it's obvious they're just content thieves. i just wanna make sure you know it's appreciated when someone like you does it right.

[@TairnKA]

These type of stories make me smile and think; "Their part of an ancient tech society, called 'Scotty's'." ;-)

[@RamonInNZ]

Scotty's Monks

[@TairnKA]

@@RamonInNZ Yes... that's it. ;-)

[@Fuxy22]

Anybody thinking the engineer is just fu*king with them? Domain knowledge is indistinguishable from religion 🤣

[@decab8292]

I wholeheartedly agree and could imagine this being used as a magnificent party story for the "Wizard" 😂

[@zzac7433]

Turns out the reactor was barely outputting and just needed a flush. Everything else throughout the ship was just starved of energy and that's why they were malfunctioning

[@johninnh4880]

I approve! Niice short story. As any Harley Mechanic knows, the torque spec of: "1/4 turn before "Oh SHIT!" seems applicable.

[@decab8292]

A most excellent short story that has so much more to give. Thanks.

[@alexanderrosario8569]

This some warhammer 40k shenanigans

[@ekhidna4]

OMNISSIAH, HEAL THY WOUNDED SERVANT!

[@johncunningham4820]

Technomancer . Exorcist of A . I 's .

[@Bellator_of_the_Shadow]

the human probably went out and then took off all the gear and stuff and had a good laugh. "Just a gunked up reactor, knock the gunk loose and boom! works perfectly!"

[@jamiepatterson1214]

Humorous story. Nicely written and narrated.

[@nunyabidness-y2r]

Ah, the good Ole 'technical tap'😂

[@priestofthecraft5318]

Glory to the Omnissiah! 🤖 🙏

[@angelgris001]

By the will of the omnisia, be at peace

[@Call_me_Jim]

Sounds like a Tech-priest from the Adeptus Mechanicus. But Fuzzy dice make everything better.

[@BendingGrid]

From the brink of despair to a mysterious savior in the form of a skilled mechanic, the twists and turns are captivating. The vivid descriptions of the crew and their struggles draw you in, and the unexpected heroics of the human mechanic are truly intriguing. If you're a fan of space adventures and unexpected twists, you've got to check out this video! Also, major kudos to the storyteller for bringing this epic tale to life. 🔧🌌 Curious to hear more stories like this in song form? Check out PARALLAX coming in early 2024.

For the Omnissiah

[@unpaintedleadsyndrome]

Praise the Omnissiah!

[@cielvalentine016]

Lmao bro got humors ,I bet he be laughing alot in the airlock 😂

[@Amoth_oth_ras_shash]

mm , a universe with warp stuff ,but no arbitrary 'allegiance' to things ..yep neat , would not mind complex machines accidentality getting some subconscious aspects as tech and warp sparks merged through its fibers and circuits reflecting its history as much as it might reflect off its crew... woe the pirate that tortures a engineer that is beloved by its mindless ships spirit!

[@mrknowitalllearned]

Just a totally awesome story.

[@jasonbull6560]

Loved it.👍

[@EllenCrawford-h1f]

Reminds me of an old car I used to date 😢

[@kacpermalina308]

Net runner, walk and all tech will work.

[@ligerstripe99]

what if warhammer 40k humans weren't xenophobes.

[@WeaponizedAutism343]

From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me

[@JeffreyMendoza1970]

Exspiravit in machina

[@akila_melindeth]

That's a technomancer lol

[@cindaschuster6725]

💙👍🏻

[@TheSolidSnakeOil]

Engineers finally started a real religion.

[@choctaw2sticks193]

whos to say we humans are not the best in the galaxy, mabey thats why they're so interested in us . . .

[@mariomachadofilho]

Suffer not the xenos..

[@markwarrenseadog2349]

Hot Damn

[@graveerror4048]

Anyone else reminded of the Mechanites of the Church of the Broken God?

[@SMunro]

Damn needy AI.

[@eblkii6314]

LOL

[@butterg9535]

Story based on my Windows admin.

[@rondohunter8966]

I dunno. It's a good story but I'm more of a sci-fi purist and can't go with the fantasy aspect. That's a separate genre and ne'er the two should meet.

[@janjager2906]

🤣
