"Heyyy, you've reached Ruby! Er, well, you haven't really reached me, because I'm not actually here right now! Eheh...heh...

Anyway, I'll get back to you! ...No really!"

[After 5 minutes delay.]

Phew. I'm glad...! Sorry for the ominous call, but I didn't remember who all was going to that CERES tour. Anyway, it was a trap! My group made it out somehow, but it was really crazy! We got abandoned in the high security tract somehow and then the guard robots thought we're intruders and opened fire! And then there was that strange locked up woman and when I checked my CereVice earlier there was that crazy killer-bot looking through it at me and grinning!

[...and he's rambling, oops. Better turn that down.]

Anyway, it gave me a big scare. But I'm fine now, for the most part! Just the nerves... Are you really safe?

[undaunts]

Huh? Guards robots??? [cooooool-- no, wait, not cool]

But really, I'm definitely safe, you don't have to worry about me. Just trust that I can take care of myself! I'm more worried about you! Are you super duper extra sure you're not hurt?

text

[jyajyaaan]

Yeah.

I'm sure you can. I was just worried because it was such a surprise-attack sprung on such a lot of people.

And I'm sure, my eye is still being strange but the rest is already fine again!

[A pause.]

Did you see that robot who killed a woman in your dreams too?

text

[undaunts]

Your eye? Do you need an eyepatch? Pirates are cool, you know.

[how does that even help, ruby]

But yeah, I remember that one. Did you see it again?

text

[jyajyaaan]

I-what. I-I hope not!!! D=!! I like my eyes, you know?!

[Great, now she's made him worried that it might not heal properly. A half-blind Barian, how lame would that be!!]

Good, you saw it too. Anyway, yes, I did. I think it had something to do with what happened to us. When I woke up it sent me a message and it was just... Looking at me before saying thanks. It was creepy!

text

[undaunts]

I like your eyes too! But if you have to go with another option, I'm just saying, eyepatches are cool.

[Sorry, Vector.....she's only a little serious about it at least. A little.]

That's really creepy! Though I guess it's not so bad if it's thanking you for something? Have you done anything nice for robots lately?

text

[jyajyaaan]

Yeah, they are. Uh. Can we drop that idea..?

[Don't jinx it, ok? That's doing pretty bad things to his paranoia like making him wonder if removing his own eye to see how they messed with it would be worth the pains.]

. . . . Not really? That's what's worrying me, it's as if it knew about everything that has happened!

text

[undaunts]

Okay!

[Oh god Vector no don't take out your eye.........]

So maybe it's watching us...but it still thanked you, right! Sure, it sounds like it was super creepy, but it's a robot. Maybe it's just...bad at human interaction!

text

[jyajyaaan]

Eh.... maybe.... Still, I'd rather not meet it again. Or have somebody try to explode our heads from the inside.

In any case, it'll be for the best if we are careful with anything about CERES now.

text

[undaunts]

You've got it! I'll be extra careful now, so don't worry.

You're the one who was in a really dangerous situation, you need to be more careful too! Okay? Don't get hurt!

text

[jyajyaaan]

I'll try! I'll promise that I'll try!

I'll see you around, then.

text

[undaunts]

Okay! You'd better be in one piece the next time I see you! Or I'll...sit on you or something!

[wow what a threat

But she'll let him go, pressing into her memory the thought--check on Rei soon and make sure he's okay.]
