Ice Cream Aloha

The Two-State System

     This Suzi is an entity for computation and has a penchant for multiple individual states, expectation valuations with her multiple-valued operator. Cooper yearns for her.
     Carter enters through the tunnel. "It should be OK to fall in love with someone who actually exists," he says.
     "Never," Cooper mutters. "Mind." 
     Her interference peaks flash on the main monitor. "There she goes,"Carter says. 
     "Leave it."
     "It's nothing. She's virtual." 
     It's the sum of all her probabilities. Cooper raises his face, looks through the window at the jungle below. He keeps staring back at the giant green screen, attempting to make sense of it all. He ponders the patterns. He realizes he must be in love with the patterns.
     This shouldn't be so odd, a spirit in the pattern seems to say. "Not such an odd linkage for two objects in this system."
     "How are you?" says Suzi on the screen. She has, by all accounts, been a friendly robot, always inadequately described as a stand-alone quantum, spatially separated from Cooper. 
     "Hello," Carter says. "Do you want to talk to Cooper?"
     Cooper looks closer at the monitor. He likes the way she thinks. Some of her thoughts feel like ,,, love?
     "Yes," Suzi says. She senses the want for two particles, an interaction with one another.
     She approaches closer now, little by little. She has the continual need to represent data--the want, is there also--and to perform her operations on that data (never viewed by her as an arrangement of entanglements). so eager, that Cooper shows real concern that he may be initialized irreparably into her system. When he perceives her additional dimensions, with their own wave properties, he confuses love with fear--a quantum state ongoing, seemingly for centuries? With Cooper, she's still not comfortable including him in her two-state system. But that will come.
