Waiting Room

[mend_and_defend]

There are a number of surprisingly well-dressed programs waiting outside the Principal Office medbay.

They are well-dressed because they just came from a wedding.

They're waiting because the COMMAND.COM is giving birth in there.

They're waiting outside because when Hack poked his head in earlier he nearly went deaf from the screaming

As Slash starts humming under his speakerplate (robots don't BREATHE) one might find Hack really is slightly deaf from that.

"Hmm mmhmhmm mhhhmm."

And both mookbots are just a bit bleached in front, though standing with their backs to a wall hides this some.

After they got her into the medbay, they tried to help out.

Enzo has, purely out of habit, grabbed a zine from the table, but he's not reading it; instead, he's scrolling through it, up and down, over and over, too fast to scan. One knee is jiggling up and down.

He knows there's no reason for him to be in there, nothing he can contribute, but between his Guardian protocol and more personal anxiety, he's ready to burst from the urge to do something. He almost wishes a Game would land so he could do something productive, however irrelevant.

The newlyweds are busying themselves by pacing, moving around each other easily each time their paths meet.

The renegade paces with his hands clasped behind his back, muttering nonsensically to himself as he moves. The Game sprite, on the other hand, does not speak, instead choosing to scrub a hand worriedly at her hair every so often.

Ironhide's just ... well, he'd fidget if he knew how. The instant Lissar comes in range he's going to ask her whether they need to stick around for this. This is so far outside his programming and experience it's not even funny.
