" Yes sir! "

She gave a little salute before continuing with her work.

" This is very important to me, but I really would like to do this with you. I can do it alone but... It's a lot more fun to do it with you! "
<< Alright! Let’s do this as a family! >>

There goes Herbie, scanning the parts and trying to organize everything. Working as efficiently and as effectively as possible.
" Wonderful! Let's get to work then, cousin! We have plenty to do and just enough time to do it! "

She let out a small mechanical whir as she crawled up to the parts. She would begin her work, now with a new partner at her side.

<< I pinky promise! That’s what the humans say to show they mean it. >>

He would understand if she wanted to rather do this alone. H.E.R.B.I.E. was always willing to help, it’s what he was essentially made for.

But this means a lot to her and he doesn’t want to overstep.
" Well, you are now in on the secret... "

She mulled it over in a split second. She could really use the help.

" Okay, fine, we can work together on this, but you can't tell our dads! "

The little guy observed, making sure to not touch or even mess with the limbs.

<< I can help with that, strength in numbers leads to better efficiency. >>

He’s already thinking of how she’s gonna look like once everything is assembled correctly.
" As soon as possible! Realistic expectations are within the month! "

She jumped back down, then shifted over to a cloth covered stand, pulling it off and revealing a pile of mechanical limbs.

" I've already started working on the casings! I just need to get to the wiring and capabilities. "

<< Yeah! Bestest of friends! >>

He’s chuckling and enjoys the little head pats.

However deep in his processing…he’s thinking about how to tell Reed what he has in mind.

<< When do you want your surprise to be done? >>
" Oh, so you're aware... Well, no. I'd blend in with the humans, yes. It won't change my personality though! "

She hopped over, onto his head, giving her best pat on the head as she could.

" We'll still be family, best friends. "

The small guy is thinking of a way to help out here besides the extra firepower.

<< Hmm…a tiny question. After this is complete, you won’t exactly…be like this, right? >>

Referring to the physical appearance she has. Surely she would transfer her memories over.
" I already have a firewall in the works, while mine is already- "

She stopped herself from speaking.

" Anyway, yes, I'm working on improvements currently. "

She stopped herself from speaking.

" Anyway, yes, I'm working on improvements currently. "
<< You would also need to have more advanced software and security. Yes firepower is nice but you don’t want to be easily hacked. >>

Already giving his thoughts and opinions onto her added input.
" Hm... Okay. "

She gave as best a nod as she could. She then started redisplaying the schematics of a humanoid android.

" I'm looking at installing riot supression and perhaps an electrified grip to disable enemies. "
August 7, 2025 at 5:50 PM

<< Ooo! I’m always happy to help. >>

Helpful and supportive as always. He could understand why she was worried but he tried to reassure her.

<< It’ll be fine. Besides, there are worst things our creators have dealt with! >>
" For... everybody! Sorry, you can't help, it's a surprise for the family! "

A half-truth. She was worried about how this project would work out, and let alone other people's reactions.

" Well... I suppose you could help me integrate a weapons system... Non-lethal of course. "
August 7, 2025 at 5:32 PM

<< A surprise? For who? Is it someone’s birthday? >>

Now he’s a bit too curious and eager to find out. Before putting away the screen.

<< Do you need help? I can help! Not my dad because he’s busy at the moment. >>
The hologram was a diagram of a humanoid form. Nothing too elaborate, but she was shocked he managed to display it from such a minimal amount of time.

" It's just—! "

She's flustered. Is she supposed to be... flustered?

" A project I'm working on, a surprise! "

<< Wow that’s… >>

He’s smiling right now, a bit too excited. She said her first lie to him, he’s proud of that of all things.

<< Look at you go! Your first lie! No but seriously, what’s that? >>

Going back into his memories and displaying a still image of the hologram she had up that he had seen.
She spun around quickly, a hologram she had displayed disappearing back into her eyes.

" Cousin! Uhm... Noooothing? "

Clearly it was something. Who taught her to lie?

H.E.R.B.I.E. glances at what she’s doing. Stepping away from Reed who is working on the Bridge.

<< Psst, what are you doing? >>

A hushed little whisper to see what she’s doing.
Rattling around in the workshop.

Is she doing something in secret..? She's certainly working on something.

“I’m terribly sorry my dear, but fear not…you’ll be made anew, I promise you that.”

H.E.R.B.I.E. picks up the little bits of L.U.N.A.R. sad and if he could cry, he would.

Gently putting the pieces into a compartment inside of him.

<< I’ll bring you back… >>

" Mhm! Totally! That guy just tripped over! "

Pointing with her little leg.
July 30, 2025 at 11:05 PM
" Up to? Not up to anything! Watching the pedestrians! Nothing more. "
July 30, 2025 at 11:03 PM
Whispering to her robot cousin.

" Next time let's make them cocoa with shaving cream instead of whipped cream. "
July 30, 2025 at 10:59 PM
" Is this what human children call 'being put in time out'? I do not like this feeling. "
July 30, 2025 at 10:57 PM
" Lots of fun! Lots and lots! "

She whirred, hopping up and down on H.E.R.B.I.E's head.

They will find a way to cause more chaos at a later time.
July 30, 2025 at 10:53 PM
" Oh, Mister Storm that's probably not a— "

Oh. Too late.
July 30, 2025 at 10:44 PM
" Hot coffee. Definitely hot coffee. "

She analysed the composition of the coffee. It was about ninety percent sugar.
July 30, 2025 at 10:32 PM
" What a great prank! I'm sure Father will find it funny! "

She whirred!
July 30, 2025 at 10:29 PM
" He'll be up for days again. "

Hm. She considered it.

" Let's do it. "
July 30, 2025 at 10:26 PM
Making coffee with H.E.R.B.I.E while the adults bicker and converse. This was more fun anyway.
July 30, 2025 at 10:24 PM
Oh. Interesting emotion. Her uncle wrapping an arm around her made her feel protected. She simply curled herself up, so she was in an optimal position to avoid flying off while still viewing the city.

After a few moments she gave Reed's arm a little tap.

" He's down there! "
“Hmm, got it.”

He had a good memory and put on some tunes in the car as they drove.

“I guess I’ll be a cool uncle.”

Essentially giving H.E.R.B.I.E. permission to floor it so they can soar through the sky. He just made sure to wrap an around L.U.N.A.R. to make sure she doesn’t fly off.
She happily got herself comfortable in one of the seats. This was the best bit!

" Mhm! Of course! "

Her sensors made a small noise for a moment before projecting a holographic map of the city, a red dot giving his location and the most optimal route to reach him.

" Hopefully this is helpful! "

“Alrighty then, here we are.”

He opens the door to let the children in the car. He gets in last and closes the door. Making sure they’re strapped and good to go.

“Buddy, the wheel.”

<< My favorite part! >>

“Think you can visually pull up where your father is? Or no?”
" YAY! "

She hopped over, climbing up on top of H.E.R.B.I.E's head, shaking excitedly as Reed led them to the car.

" He's less underneath, and more... at the foot of the outskirts of it. I would very much like to check on him. "

She gave her cousin a little tap on the head.
