[The robot had been oddly quiet for a few days, even avoiding his family as much as possible during the Thanksgiving dinner. But now the phone in his room was knocked off the hook, and if you're listening carefully, you can hear him muttering to himself. There's something off about the words, slow and buzzing.]

Shouldn't have listen...ed to her... liar... don't hurt me again, no... one hurts me again... can't trust... them.... should have remembered that...



[Family members are free to notice that he has claimed possession of the house's sharpest kitchen knife, and a tool box. The knife was used to cut open the covering on his right arm, and the tools are being used in an attempt to one-handedly install a gun there.]

[A pause. He knows Mia. She listens.]

Remember what happened to England? When he got brainwashed?

It happened to Aigis-san too.

... What?

[tickingheart]

[Silence. Mia can figure it out herself.]

[bustydefense.livejournal.com]

Why?

[A pause. When he speaks again, he sounds tired.]

Dunno. ... some of her friends... they hadn't come back...

I think she went and confronted the milkman.

And then she came after you?

[tickingheart]

Not really. I just got in her way when she attacked someone else.

Were you hurt?

[Silence for a moment. Then he speaks, slowly and clearly.]

Aigis-san is a highly advanced piece of technology. She has multiple weapons, including but not limited to a weapon which is capable of firing multiple bullets in quick succession. Her physical strength is comparable to, and possibly greater than mine. She also has a sort of summoning ability which I am assuming is unique to her world, and can call up some kind of creature who is much more physically powerful than I am.

I see.

You know she didn't mean it.

[tickingheart]

No. I don't.
