Week 3
[Two weeks in, and all at once four people are dead. Chitose, Miki, Lucina, and Tsurugi - whatever the circumstances, however any of you may feel, their rooms are just as empty at the end of the week. If you check your P.I.P.s, you'll find that their pictures on the profile page have gone monochrome.
C.E.C.E.'s morning announcement comes like clockwork on Sunday. This time, though, there's an addendum to her usual message:]
Congratulations, Champions! By surviving your first trial, you have unlocked the second floor of the ship. A new mini map has been added to your P.I.P.! To access the second floor please stand on the teleporter and select the floor you wish to be teleported to.
[In addition to the new floor, the Champions will find that they've gained another memory this week.]
(( Welcome to Week 3! Don't forget to check in and submit your memory regains! Turn in your benefactor threads for sweet loot, too! ))

[still a lil #Concern.]
Woah~! A robot huh? Damn, that's new!
[Zombina still has it in her to be an tiny bit surprised. But honestly all the other stuff she's heard makes this pretty normal to her.]
Do ya like, have rocket fists or something Penny-chan? That'd be awesome! Or like, jetpacks ta fly with!
[Zombina asking the important questions to keep the conversation light.]
Though uh... this Ironwood-kun, is he the reason ya are lettin' people think ya are human? I mean, I get tryin' ta pass if ya can, but I don't think anyone who's worth your time will care much 'bout ya not being a meat sack like them.
no subject
[No manga continuity here, sorry.]
And- I guess? He and my father said most people aren't ready to know, yet. That what I am might scare them.
no subject
[You can be robo-Yang.]
....Yeah. Most people ain't.
[Zombina frowns and thinks back to when liminal species were revealed three years ago.]
But the thing is, I don't think People will ever be ready. Sometimes... sometimes ya just gotta go out there and wing it. People'll be shocked and scared at first, yeah, but things'll settle down soon enough. Same thing happened at a larger scale when liminal species were revealed ta my world three years ago.
[Geez... that was a time to be alive.]
But ya know, People adapt and life goes on! Eventually, only the racist pricks and other assholes will vocally have a problem with it, and ya don't need ta give a fuck about them.
[Zombina laughs.]
I don't think anyone can be scared of ya once they get ta know ya Penny-chan. You're waaaay too adorable and innocent ta be scary.
no subject
[A faint smile.]
But she's- special. You really think other people would be okay too?
[She wants to believe, she really does. But. Doubt.]
[Also she's probably technically a secret military project, that might complicate things.]
1/3
[ZOMBINA PLZ.]
2/3
Penny-chan, I know so. Anyone who deserves your friendship won't care if ya are a robot, a human, or something else. They'll care more the fact that you're Penny-chan the person they're friends with than that you're Penny-chan the robot.
[She'll just let that sink in for a moment.]
3/3
[Aaaaaand moment ruined.]
no subject
[Probably. Almost certainly. Just gals being memes, etc.]
[And then the rest of it-]
...Thank you so much, Zombina. That- I can't say how much that means.
[Hug.exe engage.]
no subject
[Zombina laughs at the hug and hugs back. Hug combo x2]
no subject
[Yeah, loosening that grip a little.]
...I still don't know if I can tell any of the others. Is that okay, do you think?
no subject
[More headpats for you though. Good Robo.]
If you're not comfortable with tellin' the others, than that's a-okay! Just do whatever ya are more comfortable with Penny-chan.
no subject
[Hearing that she doesn't HAVE to tell anyone almost makes the prospect easier somehow?]
...I'll think about it. Everyone's been so kind, here. ...I think Max might suspect something too, but he hasn't said anything? Just a few things at the trial.
no subject
[Le headpats continue.]
If ya wanna start off small, there's always tellin' people one at a time. Ya don't need ta make some huge announcement or anything. Like I said, do whatever ya are more comfortable with!
