"And when you needed tea, you put your pinky out like so... Never forget to say 'thank you' after... and that shows the way... of having a perfect tea party. And if you want to be the one to start with conversations, you start of with hobbies..." Cynthia is planning to sleep unusually early than late most of the time, so she did everything to make her tired. Of course, her doll, Lou, is helping her. Right then, they just finish playing tea party, so she was now reading a 'Tinkerbell" story where she met a human again.
The prototype doesn't understand why she reads the same book or watch the same show repeatedly each day. Just this moment, he wonders if sharing his secret with her would make them more intimate. Additionally, he had a lot of fun with her for the past few day, but there's more things he wants to do with her and the toys he became close with.
He slightly sink a little from his kid as he watch a scary movie from the laptop. He just doesn't know how this moving pictures move. He knows typing and searching, but not this. And to believe that they'll scare him.
"They said that the kids' greatest connection is with their mum, but I have one to either Jayden or my dad..."
But what about this person you mention 'uncle' one time. I just can't remember when. Do you have great connections with him?... His child must've watch this movie so many times if she isn't the slightest fazed just by her falling asleep when it finish, much to Lou's relief.
He carefully releases himself from her grasp before launching his whole body to close the laptop when the movie finish. He won't admit that the show startled him a little. I am not scared. I just got startled... he manage to convince himself before pushing the laptop at the edge under her feet.
Before leaving her room with Slighshot, he gave her child a goodnight kiss on the forehead. Of course, he did no forget about his satchel. He took a shortcut towards the basement before seeing toys training with some of his gadgets he made. A little time observing the thinkers got him learning how to build small gadgets himself. One toy got thrown out from the obstacle, but he quickly kicked a box full of cotton to catch that toy's landing.
•Lou's POV•
"How about try to land on your roller-skates next time? Maybe you'll find some brakes to help you on your landing" I mention with a small smirk, making the toy groaned in disbelief. "How would I know if you were never here much to begin with" she scoff at me, but I immediately face her back to me by slowly pulling her chin to my direction. With me grinning at her flustered expression, I began to control the conversation by giving a fake soft smile.
"I wish the night had more hours for me to stay and train you ALL, especially you my dear, but as you know... I am multitasking~ Between you all and my darling Dalancy. So please think of the time when the I last got my sleep just to look after you all..." I slyly explained, but that is enough to make her face loosen into guilt and silence.
"R-Right. S-Sorry, I'll do better in training next time to make it worth it..." She apologizes. Knew it. One explanation is enough to change someone's mind about you. That's why it's complicated to trust them with your secrets. Like what Ox did when I told him about a surprise project for the dolls, but he accidentally told one of them about my plan, so I changed the ideal project and forgave him for slipping.
"Oh really?"
"Yes! I'm sorry for only thinking about leaving if I gave up, I forgot about how you think!"
Although, from the years I have experience, I had learned not to go trust much dolls around me after that small flaw. "Not really, it's alright. Frankly me speaking, I don't mind giving you a few tips. If your plan ever backfires, almost make sure you land on your rollerblades and retreat to go and hide for the next plan. Clear? Now go and join the lesson. I'll check on the others..."
