Foreword: For those who are reading this, please understand that this story follows the canon conclusion of NieR: Automata following the Live Concert. Thanks to efforts of mintychu ( ), the dialog from the concert has been translated from Japanese to English. I recommend all readers to read the lines from the concert prior to reading this story. The Live concert is canon (the good ending is, suprisingly). You can also view the concert on Youtube.

"Pod 042 to Pod 153: Report status of Unit Number 9 Type S, also known as 9S."

"Pod 153 to Pod 042: Status of Unit 9S is stable, although current information on his restart approximately 336 hours ago still remain unclear."

"Understood. Recommend finding long term solution for corrective and preventative maintenance. Without the existence of the Bunker, finding parts for upkeep of units 9S and Unit Number 2 Type B, also known as 2B, will become extremely difficult."

"Understood. Proposal: Find other resistance members who might know of Androids that specialize in YoRHa android repair."

"Devola and Popola units are no longer in existence, therefore, they are no longer an option if units 9S and 2B were to handle extreme damages as before. For now, the current short term solution is the replacement of used YoRHa soldiers in order to maintain current functionality of units 9S and 2B. Since the logic virus created by the machine lifeforms have been placed in indefinite remission, chances of YoRHa parts infecting units 9S and 2B are 0.00000000000000000001%."

"Query to Pod 153: The Moon server still remains intact. Is it possible that the original files for YoRHa model blueprints and parts is still accessible? Possibility for infection of Moon server is at zero."

"Query Acknowledged. It is possible that the Moon server may have information regarding corrective and preventative maintenance of YoRHa units. Recommend finding a way to contact Moon server for long term solution."

"Recommendation accepted. Proposal to units 9S and 2B should be given at a later date. This may be odd to state, but... I do not want to stress them out yet. I would like them to rest."

"...Pod 042: I agree with you completely."
