[sciencetank]

Why is that embarrassing? Jetfire did so, on occasion.

[makeshiftwings]

But... who's Jetfire?

[sciencetank]

Ah. A... colleague of mine...

[is that color on his cheekbones there.]

[makeshiftwings]

[ Normally she would tease him but... well. She's good at observing. She can probably figure out what that means. ] Is he... more than just a colleague?

[sciencetank]

Calling him by any other title wouldn't be prudent, considering the situation in which we currently find ourselves. It's far wiser to refer to him simply as a colleague.

[Safer, too. But it's also easier to be practical -- in case the Ark was as devastated as it had seemed.]

[makeshiftwings]

... All right. Sorry I asked.

[ She still can't help but feel a little... well, she's not sure. Disappointed? Sad? She doesn't know. ]

[sciencetank]

... Sorry? Why?

[makeshiftwings]

I just am. [ She pulls her knees up to her chest and pointedly doesn't look at him, hiding behind her bangs. ]

[sciencetank]

... Is something the matter?

[Hey, he's observant. Just not about the right things.]

[makeshiftwings]

No. I'm just being stupid, that's all. Just give me a minute, okay?

[sciencetank]

Mm, as you wish.

[He'll just. Get up then.] I believe I had some notes to compile on that courtyard you located, anyway.

[makeshiftwings]

All right. Just don't wander too far.

[sciencetank]

I'm several thousand years old. I can manage a simple walk.

[makeshiftwings]

Hey, Perceptor?

Have you ever... loved somebody?

[sciencetank]

...

[well. That actually made him pause.]

No.

I can't say that I have.

[makeshiftwings]

Yeah.

Me neither.

[sciencetank]

Is that an issue?

[makeshiftwings]

[ She shrugs ] I don't know. I didn't seem like one.

[sciencetank]

Then... I can't say I entirely understand why you asked.

[makeshiftwings]

Don't worry about it. Just... go for your walk.

[sciencetank]

I intended to.

[But you're being so weird...]

[He nods to her, then steps out to do just that.]

[makeshiftwings]

[ She will just sit here and hate herself for being so stupid about some guy who is really a robot and clearly isn't interested anyway. ]

[sciencetank]

[For being a brilliant scientist, he's remarkably clueless about many things.]

[Sorry, Angel :(]

[makeshiftwings]

[ She'll get over it. That's what she does. a little while later, she heads out to the courtyard to see if she can find him ]

[sciencetank]

[He's still down there, but now he has a notebook, and a pen. He's staring at trees, scribbling notes like mad.]

[... apparently he's already gotten through several pages.]
