The gloved fingers released the small plastic stick into the child’s hand as he took a few steps back to walk around over to the back of that hovering device. Planting hands on a metal railing used to guide the object held it there while waiting for the little ghost, ratted sheet in tow to clamber onto it-when she did he tipped his frame over to one side to make sure she was completely on board.
The object itself did not budge or dip in the slightest, the only thing it did do was the humming seemed to grow just a little louder and the vibration of the working device amplified just a little more. With a clothed palm he pushed, making the object glide along the air, spreading the dim violet light out from underneath.
Well he had his scrap and that’s all that truly mattered to him in particularly. He didn’t bother asking the little girl a bunch of questions, after all she hadn’t even spoken yet-which for the time Spanner disregarded for perhaps shyness- maybe he’d find out about her little problem once he got her to a safer environment, “Huh…Maybe get you something better to wear…” he said to the air as he thought out loud to himself guiding the electronic cart along the darkened area of Abyss.
The instant that the man began moving the device (Vehicle? Could it possibly be somewhere in that class, and she was simply unaware of it at that time?) Nill moved away slightly from the edge, almost as though she were afraid she might fall off; or, perhaps, that it was suddenly start flying up into the air, and she’d simply be stuck atop it. A silly response, all things considered, but there were certainly worse. After the first few moments of gliding along like that, she gradually began to unwrap the lollipop that had been given to her, looking at the obvious bright red color of the sugary treat once done before popping it into her mouth, still holding on to the little plastic stick with the middle, pointer finger, and thumb of her right hand, the wrapper now held in her left.
It wasn’t so hard to tell that he wasn’t actually talking to her when he spoke of finding her something else to wear-really, he’d been talking to himself mostly since he popped up, why would that change?-but the child looked down at her own, tattered and faded little dress regardless, as though trying to inspect it for something wrong. After all, it was all she really owned, and she herself could see nothing wrong with it; though even she had to admit, it could probably use a wash. And besides, weren’t clothes somewhat expensive? Looking back up at the man with the single swirl in his hair, Nill tilted her head slightly to the side, taking the lollipop out of her mouth; apparently trying to convey something along the lines of ‘you don’t need to do that’ with her expression alone. Not like she could really do it any other way.
