// these are really good conditions actually. Gotta keep yourself safe if you're hugging others.

// this is actually a pretty unique look. I love the high-tech looking helmet display paired with scrap that's been incorporated into the armour.

As another sign of trust, they removed their second hand from protecting their pod and gave a wave with both hands. They hoped that they would not come to regret this.

They offered another series of rhythmic beeps, soft and consistent as their own posture relaxed slightly.
As a newly forming entity, they decided to trust this stranger and /hope/ that things would continue in a positive manner. --->

The detected hesitance in their sounds and the friendly gesture of a wave indicated that perhaps this entity was in fact nonhostile.
Returning the friendly gesture, the hobgoblin slowly removed one hand from protecting their radiolaria pod and waved back. --->

Deciding something on their own was daunting, but with no collective to back them up they really didn’t have a choice. This individual made Eliksni sounds yet had made no aggressive moves. --->

Maya Sundaresh did not appear to be any conventional Vex unit, yet she had integrated herself into their systems with ease and assumed control, and for a while the collective had then perceived her as Vex. --->

// i really look forward to it!

// this actually looks really interesting! I'll have to find this a watch when I can.

Curiously they beeped at her, noticing that she was holding something. Cautiously they raised a hand and pointed at what she was holding, giving a curious couple of beeps and whines in quick, playful succession.

She had also taken off her helmet, that was surely another sign of being nonhostile! They felt a little more relaxed as they observed her behaviour, but still not entirely comfortable. More observation would be needed. --->
