Well Well Well... What Do We Have Here.

How about yes?

Yes? Come on, say yes!

Why not!

You must think you're being real cute, aren't you.

Sun took the shot.

Might have to check his optics later.

Hums along

I don't disagree. The children come first.

...

And also, just to be clear, it isn't I who started the fire ~

Though I may have had a hand in providing.. incentive.

From a business standpoint, what's one or several things you'd definitely change if you were in charge of a place like Fazco?

I think it'd be best to just rebuild the entire building at this point. That thing is just one giant red flag of safety violations. And if they actually cared about safety they wouldn't need to put such exorbitant prices to pay for all their lawsuits or to shut people up.

There is connection.

Communication.

Knowledge.

Whispers through the cosmos, of secrets previously untold.

General of intel, protector of innocents, officer against brutality.

All things known to her but granted on a cosmic scale.

Named a puppet, but deep within, she was always meant to influence the strings.

However, for now, a fledgling mage, it was merely a glimpse into a future still to unfold.

For now, all she had was a shield.

<Sun spoke to her>

Well done, Starlight!

It seems your primary element is metal, like mine is fire, but ofcourse we have a lot more to it than just that.

Your secondary element seems to be of a cosmic nature, relying heavily on defense, and stealth.

We'll have to practice and discover what shapes it can take, together.

<Starlight made her way across the beach from Eclipse to where Sun was resting>

Sun! Hello! Magic!

… ah. I am Sorry, that was rude.

I will start that again. Ahem. I was wondering, Sun, when you are feeling more rested would you be willing to please teach me magic? Eclipse, um the one that is your friend, recommended I learn some spells that could provide me with non-lethal means of defense and restraint. Just in case my code gets compromised, or anything along those lines.

And, I know it is silly and kind of frivolous but…  if you have time could you also teach me something like creating colored glowing sparkles…  or… something. like that…

It would just feel like the magic you see in story books and I would like to have. some. of that feeling… ah ha ha…

(why am I so bad at this?)

It's none of your business.

Sometimes we whisper to the night, when the night can do naught but listen.

I don't know if you can even hear me in there, Sun.

But I want you to know that I regret it.

Every day spent with you, I grow tired, more and more, of not saying it properly.

The words I hold back, the things I leave unsaid. They weigh heavy.

I express to you every way I can, how much you truly mean to me, but the fear lingers, twining around my fingers like serpents of dread.

What if you don't feel the same? What if you laugh in my face? Pity me? Recoil in disgust?

Would you? I'm unsure if I could bear it.

Even now, I start and stop, just short of speaking my mechanical heart to you. I envision an awkward laugh, a step back. Rejection.

At the very least, perhaps, I can cherish you as a friend. If you'll still have me then. You'll always have me, after all...

...

Dear Sun, if nothing else, survive, and at the very least ... don't let my last words be goodbye.

E., with heavy yet great affection.

Right, whatever you say Clip~

But I won't complain since that makes it easier for me to watch you.

Oh, your diagnostic is done. You should check it. I hope it's nothing too bad. I would hate for something to happen to you. You wouldn't deserve it.

You sound jealous-- is it something I said?

I can't recall what I replied to you.

It's all scrambled.

I shall check it now cause this is quite concerni-- oh.

Fuck.

Eclipse got friendshipped

gasp

Probably shouldn't be eavesdropping...

Doesn't matter. It'll still work fine.

Now I'm gonna open this up... Pretty simple mechanics but that's to be expected... Putting this here... and...

There. It's done.

You can test it out. The connection should be more stable.

( @eclipse83)

Alright. Let me give it a try...

@lost-in-space-sun Hello? Hello? Starlight Security Puppet calling in! Am I coming through more clearly now?

it is incredible what you can do, Eclipse...
