Shards of a Broken Sun [Deprecated; see link in final post for remake]

Had something similar in the head after reading update, but this is worded better.

Yeeeessss....... Pet the Fungus! Study the Fungus! Fuse with the Fungus!!!

I can see that the Undawness of Amu(Really, waking up to invent things? Without having Craft favored?) is infecting the Exaltation. Mwhawhawhawhahwhahwha!!!
Our exaltation will be the first Dawn/Twilight Exaltation ever!

When you direct an army of mortals to destroy Murdercone and barely take any casualties, you qualify as a Dawn. Doing other stuff doesn't invalidate that.
 
It seems that the 'fungus' is trying to reverse engineer the exaltation. And several of us want to do the same to it.
This is similar to one of the Xcom/ME stories that had XCom and the Geth trying to see who can reverse-engineer the other, in war, faster.
 
Probably not the right time for it, but...

[ ] Temporarily... relax your definitions of what is and is not human. They were written for those who dwelt in Creation, and this is not Creation. You will have to be more flexible on what is and is not human, along with any potentially related subjects, until you can properly update your definitions to account for the differences between this world and the one you originated in.

Of course, this may well end up rendered moot, depending on how things go; but it's something to keep in mind.
 
Like Amu would die if the Exaltation tried to kill her for being inhuman. She'd be beyond such petty problems and maybe strong enough to prevent the Exaltation from leaving at all.
 
Lets take stock of another potential explanation for events:

Assume that the fungus really is the remains of that fifth pseudo chara from earlier

On top of that, we can reasonably deduce that its been establishing those soul grafts, but it hasnt attempted to access the Exaltations programming until this point

Theres two possible reasons

The first would be that it was just being polite and is asking the Exaltation for the data now that its awake and able to respond

Alternatively, it didnt act until now because it didnt have a reason to. Only thing that comes to mind in that case would be Amus desire to create proper bodies for her Chara. Which means that the fungus is attempting to access the Exaltations charm library to work out something which can assist with that

If its the latter...We can essentially double our research speed if we play this correctly

You only need a single ability(War) of a caste to direct peoples.

You need 3/5 of the favored abilities(Craft, Occult and Lore) of a caste to craft things.
Thus waking up and creating the Blueprints of something indicayes a much more Twilight side of Amu.
 
We've already established that we are the Worst Dawn Ever :p

That said, while Amu's Occult and Lore are good, her Craft isn't nearly as impressive :(

Alternatively, it could be trying to Chara-fy the exaltation because she's thinking of the Exaltation as a separate person.
Is it bad that I want this to happen?

We could have a tiny floating lab too, for when we research new charms for Amu and her sisters. And then Dia and come over and softly troll us. Miki and Su will also spend time with us because Su wants to make sure we clean up the lab and Miki likes the science.

Ran isn't allowed in after the last time...

...Exalted-Chara... looks like Amu, but like 300% more serious and straightforward... now, that's just too cute. ;_; How do we makes this happens, QM?
 
You missed your chance for Exaltation-chara when you didn't jump blindly into Amu's soul-suction. It's currently out of character for the Exaltation to want that. Maybe Fungus-chan will make it more desirable in its eyes, who knows.
