[When Aqua wakes, it takes her some time to adjust. She doesn't remember anything, and the fog over her mind and the odd taste in her mouth dull her cognizance enough that she blearily traces the grooves of the metallic walls with her fingers and tries very hard to think about where she is and what exactly happened.
The device's message is ominous, but only vaguely without context. Is it possibly connected to the Unversed...?
The bottles on the wall don't interest her, meanwhile, and the lack of windows offer no immediate clue. The dreary halls outside of the room yield nothing either, except that she's back in space, and it takes her a deck or so to realize that those are doors lining the worn corridors, but she doesn't investigate them right away. It isn't until she hears...distant talking, which gives her a goal that sharpens her mind. That is, getting information from a native of this world. She's done it many times before, although she's a little warier after what happened in Deep Space (which is her closest experience with a space structure), and approaches quietly. Not that it makes a huge difference, because she can't tell where the strange woman's authority lies even with careful inspection at a distance, though she looks as rough as the rest of the station so far. And she's...muttering gruffly into her wrist, for some reason?
Well, no harm in trying to get her attention. Actually, from what Aqua can see, that device on the woman's wrist reminds Aqua of her own! Weird.]
Hey, are you talking to someone?

Hey, are you talking to someone?
no subject
[Like, an android and a vampire or going to have radically different perspectives as a rule? And see different things, since mystery boy mentioned ghosts? He was the only one to mention ghosts.
She frowns at A2 thoughtfully.]
I guess I'm just hoping someone can say something that makes this make sense...like a clue.
[So she can fix it!!]
no subject
They pushed A2 down :(]
I guess. [She shrugs.]
I'd help, but I don't exactly know what kind of clue you're looking for.
a2 getting bullied: what else is new
Aqua, who sighs and rolls onto her back (so restless) because honestly?]
I don't know either.
[It's frustrating!!]
Don't worry about it for now. You've been so kind already, I really couldn't ask for more.
[And won't! She's an independent human who doesn't need no android.]
no subject
I'm serious though. If you know what kind of a clue you're looking for, it'd be best to share it with everyone else. More people means more things being found out.
no subject
At A2's response, Aqua makes an interesting expression? Like she doesn't disagree, exactly, but she tilts her head away, tapping at her network device.]
...Like I said, I don't know yet. I just feel like there has to be something.
[None of your business, basically.]
no subject
Are you getting the hang of the network at least?
no subject
Aqua brightens considerably at the change in topic, turning her head to look at A2 and smiling like she wasn't being iffy two seconds ago.]
Mhm! Thank you, A2.
[She couldn't have done it without you!]
If I'm not careful I might get addicted to it. Do they have things like this where you're from?
no subject
[What with, you know, everyone being dead and those who are still alive not liking her!
Except Anemone.]
no subject
[Aqua doesn't quite gather all that from A2's statement.
A2 just seems somewhat distant as a rule, even if she's decided to join Aqua for a bit.]
But you do use this one.
[Aqua lifts her wrist for emphasis. It's basically what got them talking to one another to begin with!]
no subject
More people to keep in contact with here anyway. [More people who matter, at least. And there's more people who might potentially need A2's help.] I'm sure you'll come to appreciate it as well. It's handy enough.
no subject
She tilts her head A2's way again as well after a beat, curious.]
Do androids sleep, A2?
[It's not a totally random question, since that's probably what Aqua's going to do in a bit. She hasn't rested in awhile.
She doesn't want to chase her guest off just yet, though.]
this thread is a far cry from aqua throwing A2 out a window
we absolutely have to make up for it later,
has no idea what A2 is saying? She's making conversation to be polite, but it's hard when they're coming from wildly different backgrounds. Hell, Aqua barely knows what surgery is, otherwise she could make that comparison, at the very least.]
I'm kind of jealous. I wish I didn't have to sleep.
[Never mind, she found a talking point. Sleep is lame, honestly? She could get so much more done if she didn't need rest...
Her statement is punctuated by a yawn.]
throw 9S out an airlock for her instead
I'm sure sleep isn't that bad. If you're worried, I can stand watch to make sure nothing happens.
djngfdffdk A2 cant have a defense squad!!! unnatural
Aqua definitely gives A2 a weird look for that comment, then, sitting up from her previously comfy position just to shake her head slowly but emphatically. Thanks for the offer, android-kun, but! But.]
I didn't mean it like that.
[A2 herself even said there wasn't any immediate danger to be found! That's what the network said too...
Besides:]
I can take care of myself.
its WEIRD!
its gross, just like A2 herself
Then I'm not worried.
[Look, Aqua isn't a Minecraft character. She could sleep even if enemies were nearby.
Also, she's not going to say it, but being watched over is weird and sort of patronizing? Not nearly to Captain Justice levels, but still. Don't watch her sleep..............]
dont be mean :(
[She shrugs, apparently dropping the subject. She's not about to forcefully watch over someone who doesn't want it!
That's weird. A2 agrees.]
looks at who im playing
Besides, A2 is her friend! A friend isn't a bodyguard!!]
It's not that I don't appreciate the thought. I know you're just trying to look out for everyone.
[Like a true hero!
Please imagine A2 earning the Million Dreams Award. She'd hate it. Well, Disney Town in general is cursed.]
no subject
I'm sure. Just know that my offer stands no matter what. [A2 replies, hopefully dismissing the topic wholesale, since she doesn't think that Aqua appreciates her pushing it.]
