-For as much boundless energy as Kafuka seemed to have, it did seem that the tired waiting for Aigis had finally caught up with the girl. Laying her down in what used to be the customer waiting room, Lucca left a pillow, blanket, and ragged stuffed animal-thing for the girl before turning off the light and letting her sleep in peace. She let out a

She is... strange, but I enjoy her company all the same. And her body is human in every way, I'm certain of this.

Why do you ask, Lucca?

[daddyslilpyro]

I was mostly joking... I'm glad you have a friend like that. We are made by the people around us, after all.

[foundheranswer]

I have made many new friends, as well been reunited with previous one. It is a strange feeling...

[daddyslilpyro]

I'd wager it's a good feeling, Aigis. -She idly places a hand on the other's shoulder, giving it a gentle squeeze. Well, there's no GIVE in said shoulder, given all the metal and whatnot, but it's a nice gesture none the less-

[foundheranswer]

Yes... I believe it is. [Leans on Lucca] I feel truly blessed to have met them all, as well as you.

[daddyslilpyro]

-A bit of mental flailing goes on in Lucca's head as Aigis leans against her. She has to fight to keep a blush from being formed on her cheeks-

To be honest, I'm the one that's blessed. Seeing someone like you... gives me a lot of hope, you know? It's strange, really...

[foundheranswer]

[still leaning, yep]

Hope, from seeing me? I'm... not sure I understand.

[daddyslilpyro]

Well, look at how far we've come! The lines between organic and mechanical are so blurred with someone like you. What defines a person as a person, well... There's just no question with you. It's amazing, really.

[foundheranswer]

Hmmm...

Lucca, how closely have you studied my body and the individual parts?

[daddyslilpyro]

Ah! Erm... w-well...

-Lucca tries to hide hide just how nervous that question made her-

As much as the scan I performed has allowed me. And I did some more thorough examinations while you were asleep...

[foundheranswer]

Did you... examine my synaptic circuits? [there's a reason for all this, really]

[daddyslilpyro]

Well... to be honest... I'm not terribly certain I could make sense of them if I did. It's far more complicated than anything I've dealt with.

[foundheranswer]

I see. No, I suppose you wouldn't be able to tell without the proper equipment.

[closes her eyes for a moment]

All of them, were completely burnt out before my arrival here. Which means that... I shouldn't even be functioning as I currently am.

[daddyslilpyro]

Are you saying... that you died in your world?

[foundheranswer]

Oh, no, that's not it at all! There parts would've been easy to replace but... the "me" that you've known would've ceased to exist.

[daddyslilpyro]

Sounds like it might as well have been a death if it would mean losing you...
