Dear Dispenser (and Sentry),
Forgive me for not realising you had such an intricate operating system. Clearly your maker is a much more capable designer than what I already give him credit as being. Impressed as I am though, this form of sentience is still rather worrying and I still don't feel compelled to send an apology for that statement. I mean honestly, I'm writing to a machine. One that has no formal way of communicating back to me as such that I would ever find comprehensible except for this odd Deus Ex Machina taking place currently. It's bordering on becoming unnerving if it hasn't already completely cleared that checkpoint. All that's left is for you to get a complete mobile upgrade and I'm out of a job. Can't really blame me for feeling just slightly bitter about your engineer incorporating my experimental tech with his own, now can you?
That aside, I'm still appreciative for the healing assistance you provide.

Of course Sentry and I have intricate operating systems. The Teleporters, too. My Engineer coded each of our operating systems from scratch so that they would be optimized for dispensing, sentrying, and teleporting, respectively. And remember, this is probably the 60's or something, so he probably did this with punch cards.
Of course I have a way of communicating with you. You didn't think my Engineer only built the four of us, did you? Printer doesn't have any bullet-related functions yet, though, so he doesn't join us in battle. He helped me form this letter, which I am certain Roisu has delivered to you in a timely manner.
My Engineer is worried about something called the "Robot Apocalypse," and I believe that is why we do not have mobile upgrades. My Engineer ran some tests to get me to do your ubercharges. I could only give them to my brothers. My knowledge banks do not know why I cannot ubercharge a human. You do not need to worry that I will take your job.
If you are worried that my Engineer is hogging all of the knowledge, why do you not ask him to help you? He is the smartest human. He is the smartest anything. I am certain he could easily help you improve your technology. Maybe program an AI for your Medigun? I would like that.
I forgive you for heartlessly murdering my brother because you are my Engineer's friend.
