Arranging a little talk...

[nexus_cps]

Dr. Bannister was surprised to recieve a phone call, even though she had left her number with Dr. Light some months earlier. She was even more surprised that the caller was Roll Light, and that she was calling from a payphone in the Nexus rather than risk her family overhearing.

She wanted to talk to Ice. After a while Dr. Bannister suggested Roll

*Roll sits in one of the little emergency-shelter rooms usually used for kids that have to be removed from dangerous situations on short notice, and waits. She's not even sure what she could say.*

*After a few minutes she starts to fidget uncomfortably, and to stay calm she gets up and starts to clean and tidy the little room, leaving her purse and a bag she'd brought with her sitting on the desk*

*Ice enters. He's visibly insecure, not knowing what to say to his sister.*

Oneechan? *The little Alpha remains at a distance, his body language guarded.*

*Roll was trying to lose her confused and conflicted thoughts by rearranging a small shelf of childrens books into alphabetical order when Ice enters. She drops one of the thin little books with a slight gasp, startled from her 'tidying up'.*

*She almost immediately looks ashamed, and not just because of her reaction. She ends up staring at the floor and the dropped book instead of looking at Ice. When she speaks, her voice is a little shaky.*

H-hello.

Hello. *He cautiously moves closer and picks up the dropped book, mostly to have something to do with his hands.*

*Blues slips into the room as quietly as possible, without knocking. Roll needed to be told that Rock knew she'd snuck out again.*

*He sees they're both asleep and, after gesturing to someone waiting in the hall, waits for either to wake up.*

*Elec's not sure about being here and hopes he won't have any problems leaving again. He doesn't even know why Blues tracked him down in the Nexus and was insistant about his coming along on this trip, until he steps into the room. For a moment he just stares*

*Roll doesn't wake, only snuggles Ice closer.*

*Well, that adds a new wrinkle. Good thing forgery isn't all that difficult when you're a robot. Hunting down pen and paper, Blues makes up a quick note that appears to be from Roll, saying that she's gone to the Mall for a few hours.*

*He leaves a second note for Roll letting her know that Rock and Dr. Light have noticed she snuck out again and are overreacting, and that when she gets home to say that she's been at the mall and that she left a note. He'll take care of 'finding' the note.*

*That done, he slips out of the room, leaving Elec alone with Ice and Roll.*
