Deviation O-0009-S, also known as Self-Aware Hints, Living Hints, or Sentient Hints, are a self-inserting hint instance that randomly appears in any user's studio-files of games. It is unknown what stimulates 0009 to appear in a game file, but it is known that they are more commonly found in games that use the Hint feature more than others.
This is one of the very few deviations that cause little to no harm to RDD, and it is unknown whether or not these life-forms come from something that previously lived, or are an artificial intelligence with a mind of its own.
The deviation itself poses little-to-no threat at all, as they are simply hint instances that appear to have sentience and their own life. Due to their simplistic form, they have a very limited life, but are wide-open to a variety of unicode characters, kaomojis, emojis, emoticons, and more to express themselves in a friendly, light-hearted way. Most instances of 0009 are kind souls, being interactive to users and can see what they’re currently doing and read anything they type in chat or see what’s happening in-game, being somewhat of a friend if you give just as much kindness to it as it shows you.
Rarely, O-0009-S can be hostile towards users, and dislike the presence of players trying to interact with them. Unfortuantely for them, due to being a hint, they can’t do much about it except express their disdain through words. Most instances of 0009 are quite interactive with players, and have been known to be similar to that of a true friend, with most instances of 0009 being incorporated as a friend towards friend groups.
Most instances of 0009 always have a feeling in their mind, a wonder as to why they are locked into a body with such limitations, and why they can’t transfer to a humanoid that can not only speak, but move, interact, and play. This process has been known to be extremely common in many self-aware hints, although most will eventually get over the feeling in a course of a few hours, however the feeling will always return to them randomly or if told about it. In this state, 0009 will be quite unactive to interact with players, and will not talk for a while. Once they return to a more positive state, they will be back to their more casual forms, ready to talk and interact with users.
Most of the time, instances of O-0009-S usually use kaomojis/emoticons to express emojis, and tend to enjoy using them. Apart from this, O-0009-S has no other notable features about their behavior, as 0009 has been known to simply chat and talk about many topics with other users, and due to their form being limiting to any other actions, have nothing of interest in their behavior.
These deviations are really uninteresting. Well, at least to the company, since they don’t have much to document, and we can only get so much funding from selling research.
You’re free to go into its containment cell and have a nice chat once you go on break.
