world's smallest ninja [OPEN]

[thxforthememories]

WHO: Kagerou + YOU.
WHERE: All over the medbay, possibly outside of it.
WHEN Shortly after his AI is transferred to the small body.
WHAT: While his engine is replaced and upgraded, Kagerou's AI has been placed into a small vessel. A tiny version of his own body. And starts to wander.
WARNINGS: None!
NOTE: Totally open. Feel free to find the little guy wandering anywhere in the vicinity of the medbay.


[He does not need help.]

[He knows exactly where he is, thank you very much. He's in the medbay. Where he'd wanted to stay during the entire procedure. But, beyond that, he truly has no idea where he is or how he got here. Everything looks different, from down here.]

[Down here... where instead of humans coming up to his ankle, it's the other way around. Now he's the one who has to crane his neck to look up at his surroundings. If he hadn't been so concerned about his AI staying intact, he would have stayed in his normal frame, not allowed himself to be placed into this small one. It's annoying. And if he hadn't fallen off the table he'd been curled on, he would have stayed put.]

[But no, he had to get down.]

[He had to go wandering.]

[He pauses, tiny wings fluttering. He's sure he's passed this place before, but at his current size, it's difficult to tell. Yes, he could call for assistance... and he nearly does, before scowling.]

[Nope. He has this covered. He'll show them he can manage alone. That he can get back to the table and... other things... on his own.]

[The little ninja bot continues making his way in blind circles throughout the building, tiny jaw set in a stubborn line.]

[Drill Boy dutifully carried him to the room that was indicated. While the original body was an odd sight in some ways it didn't bother him at all, after all he had the Super A.I. that belonged in that body in his hand.]

I see, you are even taller than me. Oh, is that Shadowmaru's mini brave? Are you a friend of his?

[thxforthememories]

Am I?

[He glances up at Drill Boy, briefly, before his attention returns to the table. And the little body. If he could fly like this, he'd be there with it, already.]

[Creepy much, Ninjabot?]

It is. [He hesitates.] ... We're something like that.

[drillsandballs]

Looks like it.

[Drill Boy makes sure to set the little Brave down beside the other body. It was a little odd seeing it there, almost like a doll, when it could have Shadowmaru's Super A.I. chip in it, but he shook off the feeling.]

That's nice, I'm glad Shadowmaru has other friends then just those of us at the station.

[thxforthememories]

[The fact he crawls up next to it, leans on it. Grips its hand as if there were really someone in the body... probably doesn't help the weird feeling.]

[He looks away though, over at a wall.]

... He did once, yes.

[drillsandballs]

Once we get this worked out and are all together again he still will.

[He had already convinced himself that this was fact and could not be changed or avoided.]

[thxforthememories]

[He grips the limp little hand tighter, at that. He'd like it if he could believe it. If it were a fact...]

[But he just doesn't know.]

I hope that will be true.

[drillsandballs]

I'm sure it will.

[He smiles brightly, not giving any room for disbelief.]

[thxforthememories]

How can you be?

[What does this one know that he doesn't?]

[drillsandballs]

Because, if we all work our hardest, and work together, we can make anything happen.

[thxforthememories]

... It's that easy for you?

[drillsandballs]

Well it isn't always easy, but that's how we get things done.

[thxforthememories]

Working together.

I don't know what that's like. I only know... [He glances over at the other little body, at the hand he's still holding.] ... this is all I know.

[drillsandballs]

Well we can teach you... or better yet, Boss can. He is the best at teaching that.

I hope we get to see him again soon then.

[He smiles, he himself fond of the other ninja being around too.]

[thxforthememories]

Is he? I don't... know if he would want to. I'm not a part of your team. I was... never meant to be.

[His hold on the cold hand tightens.]

... I want to. If I can.

[drillsandballs]

I'm sure he would, Boss is really nice and likes having friends. He doesn't mind challenging what is or isn't 'meant to be' for us, and I think he would consider you one of us.

[thxforthememories]

Even though... you aren't human?

[drillsandballs]

Yeah, Boss says we may not be humans but we are still people, and that is what matters.

[thxforthememories]

I didn't think humans would ever think that way.

[drillsandballs]

Boss is really open to us, and he's helping others be open to us too. It's really nice.
