CW// Dehumanization, it as a pronoun, pet whump, self harm

It had stopped being human a long time ago. It had turn into just a battery for whatever plans his Master had. It was a tool and without a Master, its life has no meaning or direction. A complete waste of space.

A waste of space doesn´t deserve a bed of newspaper to sleep and rest, nor does it deserve to eat or have a name. A waste of space doesn´t get to have the collar Master gave it as proof of their ownership.

The battery decides its not needed to take off the collar to burn it from where it hangs against its throat. Such considerations are reserved for humans, but just brushing their fingertips against the lock makes it immediately drop its hands back to its sides.

No, no. No touching. Merely hours away from Master and it has forgotten already? No. Can´t break Master´s rules even if they don´t want to be its Master anymore.

But then, now that it’s been abandoned, is it allowed to touch? Or is it not allowed? Would it be punished for keeping it? Which is the correct answer? It doesn’t know.

See? That´s why a battery needs a Master.  It is no longer a human that can take decisions by himself, so in the midst of its confusion, it notices it has become night and gives up in coming up with an answer it’s not capable of getting before it crawls into an empty, knocked over, metal container.
