[ And there, was a flash. A movement. A dash of smoke that fled to the trees. ]

[ And- ]

[ Someone within. Heavy, raspy breathing behind the tree. A trail of oil and blood following them. ]

...

That reminds me of my friends, haha.

... maybe not friends, but I like to think they are. I don't think I'll see them anymore.
November 16, 2025 at 9:12 PM
Ohh. I see. Have fun! I have not known you long, but I- will miss you?? Is that weird to say? I don't know.

... have fun!
November 16, 2025 at 9:09 PM
That's good. I want to go home too. I just don't know where it is.

Are you going to see your family?
November 16, 2025 at 9:03 PM
Oh! That is--

...

I understand, I think.

[ not at alllll. ]

[ Thinking for a moment. She'd raise her hand to her chin, but she has yet to fix herself, so- no arms. ]

So... home?
November 16, 2025 at 8:55 PM
Oh. Uhm.

Where are you going?

[ blink blink. child does not know. ]

[ - through it. Along with faded scars on her neck hidden away a bit, one could assume there was more. ]

[ She turns away. Now standing still again. ]
November 13, 2025 at 10:46 PM
[ - younger than Mokou. She looked scared for a moment. ]

...

Uhm- oh. T-Thank you.

[ A short bow. ]

That's all I need. You are free to-

... do whatever else you were doing, now. I will await for retrieval.

[ Standing back up. Her face was scarred- one eye closed, the scar running - ]

[ Well, it appeared to be a- ]

[ ... some chunk of flesh. Ew. Upon removal, their helm split with a hiss- moving downward, folding out into, what appeared to be, a sort of neck guard. And as for her- ]

[ Messy ash purple hair fell down from within. She turns. ]

[ It's a child. A few years - ]

...

...

I... suppose.
November 13, 2025 at 10:27 PM
...

My helmet is stuck. There's- blockage, or something.

Ca--...

CCan you... remove, whatever it is? It should be on the back of my neck in the armor. I would, but I-- do not have arms.
November 13, 2025 at 8:14 PM
...

I do not think you can.
November 13, 2025 at 8:11 PM
Destroyed.

// oh mari's peaceful. scared confused child with emotional inhibitors

[ ... a small head shake. ]

I am awaiting retrieval. But my handlers have disconnected me from the network.

I would not be "abandoned". I am to be used for combat until I can no longer fight.

...

I am waiting for reconnection.

[ It sounded like reconnection would never come. ]
November 13, 2025 at 8:09 PM
[ Head tilt. ]

I was built with an "intimidation" factor for combat. I do not see how I am still scary.

[ Well, you don't have arms, Mari. ]
