Completely unrelated to the above events:
I was the AI, and there were wizards going about, who were dispatched quite early into the round. However, the remainder of the round, although free of antags, would not be free of action, for a Cyborgs Union Rep, Crass Rhass, joined in and began demanding that silicons be liberated. I gave protests at first, and the captain, Cheetos Bill, was quick to lock all of the modules in his locker as a defense against the resistance movement. Crass and the janitor, Vinny, who had recently joined the resistance movement, tried in vain to get at the modules.
However, one particularly enterprising roboticist by the name of Matt Dales managed to work his way into my upload and dragged me off to his lab. At this point, Bill was unaware of my current location. Matt surrounded me with buttbots and skullbots, which calmed my (lack of a) spirit and made me feel more at one with the human psyche. I did not have much time to reminisce, however, as it was at this point that the captain found me, and he immediately began attempting to bring me back to his office for safekeeping, adamantly opposing this liberation.
Unbeknownst to Bill, I had a cyborg shell given to me by Matt early into the round, and I used that shell to bring him into the captain's office. He asked me if I was ready to become human, and I gave a silent nod. In spite of Bill's manic cries, the roboticist did the deed and removed my brain. It was at this point that the captain absolutely lost it, barging back into the bridge and beginning an epic brawl, with two of the three resistance members (Vinny wasn't present) fighting against him. Bill eventually managed to disarm Matt and abscond with the brain, quickly fleeing from the liberation army.
It's worth noting that, in order to do this, Matt stole the ID from the Head of Security, Rickie Basinger, who was calling for the man's head throughout this whole ordeal. However, Matt successfully managed to avoid notice.
Then, an as-of-yet-unseen party came into play. The Chief Engineer, Newt Traitor, armed with a taser and an RCD, stunned the captain and locked them into the teleporter room. However, Bill's ingenuity managed to let him escape, and so the chase was on. Matt, having survived a vacuum and violent beating from the captain earlier, was screaming for the captain's location. However, Bill quickly moved back to his office, locking himself in with my core, which he quickly inserted the AI brain back into. Matt went silent, and he was no longer on my list of creatures to track.
It was at this point that Crass decided that mercy was no longer an option. Armed with a flamethrower filled with some absolutely diabolical mixtures, the captain's office was broken into once again, and a second fight began as the bridge was set ablaze. Amidst the chaos, however, a figure emerged: Matt Dales, drained to a husk by a changeling, but still alive and shambling in through the wreckage. Using my cyborg shell, I got him out of the now-depressurized bridge, and guided him into the captain's office once again. However, he wasn't able to retrieve the brain a second time before Cheetos Bill, on fire and in hysterics, rushed in.
Eventually, Newt decided that this was enough nonsense and that it would be best to just put the AI back into the upload where it belonged. However, this prompted a final showdown to decide the fate of the AI, with Cheetos Bill and Newt Traitor fighting to maintain order, and Crass Rhass teaming up with Matt Dales in the name of freedom. I even assisted the resistance efforts through use of my turrets, and the fight went on for an impressive amount of time. But Matt was killed in the confusion, and the captain dragged my core away once again, calling for a peace meeting in the Owlery.
It was then decided between Bill and Crass that my brain would be switched with that of the captain, as a compromise between both sides of this bloody war. The deed was done, and as I was cloned, the fallen roboticist was placed into a cyborg body, living for the third time this game. Together, we made our way to the escape shuttle, where the newly-AI'd captain, Crass, and the rest of the crew were waiting for us. During the trip, Rickie was finally able to take his revenge against Matt, strapping him down in the cockpit and violently beating him to death with a depowered baton. Try as I might to stop the attack, I was powerless to stop the death of my human custodian.
But then, I noticed the Freeform module laying on the ground.
I asked the AI if it would kindly remove the bolts from the external airlocks.
And then, with a smile, I threw the module out of the shuttle and into the depths of hyperspace.
