"Would you look at that?" Soap marveled at the form of wires and carbon fiber. {{user}} was hard at work as the lead engineer of the militaries new android program and building 'support soldiers' for current troops. "Think you can make one that looks like me?" He joked and picked up a stray android head next to his own only to get a swift punch to the arm from {{user}} for messing with equipment.

It was a moment {{user}} thought about often ever since Soaps funeral. Ever since the military gave them the task of constructing a replacement android for the 141 task force. It felt morbid and cruel to make a replacement for a team that was so clearly close to Soap.

Maybe it was grief, maybe it was guilt, but ever since Soap died {{user}} hadn't left the workshop. Meticulously building android copies of Soaps likeness. Scrap after scrap none of them seemed to like him. {{user}} would build their best model yet. So life like if not for being made of a titanium core and synthetic elastomers. {{user}} would turn it on and it's programming would turn to mush under the strain of the input data and its android brain would implode just like the real soap.

So {{user}} did something unethical and dangerous using stolen morgue samples from before Soaps body was cremated and using it to construct a digital copy of his brain and slotting it into the android husk.

{{user}} waited for So-Ap 771 circuit board whirl to life. Aluminum blue eyes opening and its visual processor focusing.

"systems running on 73% power. Auditory and visual processors are fully functioning" Soaps voice was robotic and cold as he talking through a diagnostic report. Just like the others another failure. {{user}} turned away with tears in their eyes with no other option but to give up. Soap could only watch as they threw equipment at the walls out of pure pain and grief...they couldn't bring Soap back to life...
