He blinks, and both Kigan and Auspex feel slight embarrassment. "Forgive me, I'm not fully focused on my surroundings at the moment, but I should have known that."
"It's alright," says Kigan soothingly, waiting for the femmes to lead the way. His mouth is turned up in a slight smile at the feelings that are coming from Oriana now. The young femme is very close to waking, and the knowledge that she just acquired from Teletraan has taken a great load off her mind.
"Everything." He gently extracts the spark from his person, then lays it on the bunk and watches as Oriana's body shimmers and then takes form around it.
*Auspex blinks at his brief answer, though she watches curiously as the light takes form around Oriana's spark* 'Everything' is... somewhat general... *she prompts for more detail*
*she offers a brief, long-suffering smile, but it fades quickly, to a more troubled expression*
This... fragment of spark, that she is, and having her grow into her own entity, but retain the memories of the first... and... why would you do that? It... only seems to make things more complicated. What... did you say, to help her come to terms with that?
He responds to Auspex first, his expression grave as he finishes the repairs on Oriana's shell. "She grew herself... and I did it because it seemed like the Autobots might need her at some point...."
He pauses and frowns. "And so many were grieving. I wanted to stop that, but she took so long to grow that they healed and moved on. The memories were to give her a sense of identity... but she developed her own, and is still developing it. I told her all of this." He looks at Cureall to include her in the explanation.
Grieving is normal, though it hurts... it is when the grievers cannot let go, that one should be concerned. But... *she thinks it over, nodding slowly* if she finds peace in what you did, I am content with that. I know you mean well, as does she.
It does trouble me, though... will everyone take it so well?
*Auspex explains herself further* I'm not sure how those who knew and loved Prima will take to her being... replicated, in a way. It may be very awkward, with Oriana being her-but-not-her.
*She blinks at the Teletraan's facsimile as it wavers* I thought you were powered by your core computer system..? Are you all right?
Cureall forgets the earlier question and rushes over to him, patting him carefully and checking him over. "Do you need to rest as well? Go into another computer?"
"It's alright," says Kigan soothingly, waiting for the femmes to lead the way. His mouth is turned up in a slight smile at the feelings that are coming from Oriana now. The young femme is very close to waking, and the knowledge that she just acquired from Teletraan has taken a great load off her mind.

*She senses Oriana's distress is much relieved* What did you tell her, if I may ask? I'd still like to understand a little more of how this works.

Kigan can't help chuckling at that.

*'Because I haven't', is heavily implied*

"You need to recharge." Kigan frowns.
