59. [ video ]

[ Bad Haro is flapping at speed down the hallway, chortling in its little robot voice. You can hear Nena shrieking from somewhere behind him, as a shoe flies down the hall and glances off his shell, spinning out of frame ]

AND STAY OUT!

[ as to what he did, you're going to have to ask, because as the worried-sounding recording Haro asks HARO? HARO? he rams into it with an Outta my way! Outta my way! and the screen goes dark ]

[No, he is not a softi--wait he totally is.]

They can't help being what they're made to be, y'know?

[trinities]

[ that throws her for a loop; she's so used to people telling her (occasionally loudly and angrily) that you can help being what you're made to be that her old excuse of "well, I can't help it!" rings uncomfortably false hearing it now. She's not sure if she feels strange about it because she doesn't buy that any more, or because she doesn't totally not buy it either-- whose side is she on, anyway? Some of that muddled mess shows on her face for a moment before she returns to having a carefree expression ]

Who, robots? Yeah, I guess.

[theuserabides]

[Flynn catches the moment of confusion that flashes across Nena's face, but lets it go without doing more than noting it for future reference.]

Yeah. Robots. It's the programmer's fault if something goes wrong.

[trinities]

Well I don't know who made him, so I get off scot-free!

[theuserabides]

Riiiiiiight.

[Flynn is rapidly getting a handle on your personality, Nena.]

[trinities]

I really don't! I wouldn't lie about something stupid like that!

[theuserabides]

What would you lie about, then?

[trinities]

I dunno, when I'm gonna get in trouble for something? It's not like I think about it a lot.

[theuserabides]

Don't you just get in trouble anyway after they figure out you're lying?

[trinities]

Not if I look cute enough!

[theuserabides]

Living with you must be fun.

[trinities]

My brother likes to spoil me~

[theuserabides]

How's that working out?

[trinities]

Well sometimes we try and throw each other out the airlock, but I mean, like, we're siblings! So we love each other, no matter what, even if he's being a prick.

[theuserabides]

I hope it stays that way.

[trinities]

Why wouldn't it?

[theuserabides]

People change, often without meaning to.
