We have a plan.

I'm mostly handling the fighting end of things.

[bestaround]

Good, 'cause if anything had happened, I really don't want to be the bearer of bad news over here.

[secondnature]

You think we'd fail?

[bestaround]

I never said that! But you know anything still has a chance of going wrong, right?

[secondnature]

Of course it does. But if we fail this, we fail the mission.

We have to get her out safely.

[bestaround]

You don't have to tell me twice, but all I can do on my end is count on you guys to manage it.

[secondnature]

Guess so.

I wasn't sure this leg of anything would be this exciting.

But I figured it had to be better than that. It's that bad, huh?

[bestaround]

Maybe for you. At least Youmi's subjects have it together, so we're already on the way to our destination.

[secondnature]

It's not that I want bad things to happen.

It's just better that I'm here instead of there. I can be much more use here.

[bestaround]

Better you than me, that's for sure. [ And he means that genuinely. ] Just don't do anything too rash.

[secondnature]

When would I ever do something too rash?

[bestaround]

[ SIGH. at least he knows it. ]

So you CAN stop long enough to think of a plan?

[secondnature]

I DO still lead my team back home. None of us are dead!

[bestaround]

Wow, color me surprised.

[ HE'S JOKING......... mostly ]

[secondnature]

Remind me not to give you special care if we're stuck alone together. Then I can change that to "most of us aren't dead."

[bestaround]

Oof, that's harsh... Good thing I know how to do my own repairs then, huh?

[secondnature]

Good thing.

I think 2B thought I wanted to do repairs on her.

It was weird.

[bestaround]

Well, if you gave her that impression... That's my job anyway, so don't think much of it.

[secondnature]

I think it's because I said I've worked with robots before.

She doesn't think that anymore. Obviously.

[bestaround]

Obviously. She likely wouldn't want to bother unless she was REALLY busted up, anyway.

[secondnature]

She's the type to take on everything, isn't she?

[bestaround]

Yeah, I guess so. At least, she doesn't tend to slow down much.

[secondnature]

Yeah ...

[She reminds him of himself. Surprise.]

Are all androids like her and you're the weird one, or?

[bestaround]

[ Yeah, SURPRISE. He knows you lot. ]

What kind of strange assumption is that? No, we're all different.

[secondnature]

I don't know! My lion's made out of a weird space comet with a mind of its own. I didn't know if it was different for you guys.
