Synopsis
The children who reside in the Facility don't have names, they have numbers. They don't have parents, they have doctors. They don't have dreams, they have assignments.
And yet, one child among them wonders about the family she was snatched away from, about the name they surely gave her... And she dreams. She dreams about an ordinary life and what's waiting for her on the other side of the wall that imprisons her. Fresh air, freedom... delicious food.
Machine Flower follows 9-01's struggle to claim the human identity that was denied her by the scientists, who see her as nothing more than a weapon to be used in the righteous battle against the villains who would terrorize their nation. But is the selfish need for personal freedom worth sacrificing the safety of millions?Store

The Character and glossary page need to be seriously updated. I can hardly remember who 6 is and what an Apollonian does.

I get so excited every time I see an update! This comic is really engaging, and I am totally in love with Nine
Can’t wait to see where the story goes.

Have we seen enough of Six to have that much to remember about him? I don’t think so. He’s just the mystery boy who recently caused a big explosion. And I think that this is the first time I see the word “Apollonian”, so I’m going to assume that we don’t really need to know more than we’re being told at the moment.

Well Apollo was the god of the sun so… probably nuclear.

Apollonian was mentioned here: http://www.machineflower.com/2011/05/06/chapter-06-page-18/
Apollo was the god of healing. My guess is regenerative powers.
