~Donnie’s POV~
I was talking with Rye after she said that the small beeps were nothing. But when something beeps, it usually means it's running out of battery or it has a problem.
“ Seriously what is with the beeping? Are you a robot whose battery is dying? ” I ask, suspicious.
" Nononono.. how would I be a robot if I could bleed? " She says.
“ Well, you could be part robot. ”
" U-Uh…. How do you respond to someone calling you a robot?? "
“ I think it would be cool to be part robot, I mean the ability to be human and electronic is- ” I cut myself off.
" What? " She asks.
“ Why didn't you stop me? ”
" Stop you with what? "
“ like stop my ranting, everyone else does ”
" Oh... I like listening to people's obsessions and theories. " She smiles.
“ Really? ”
" Of course! I actually have a few of my own. But they're based on video games… "
“Could I hear some of yours? ”
She launches into an entire rant about a video game series called, " Five Nights At Freddy's. "
As she is ranting and I am listening I notice something with her arm… Metal?
“ Do you have a metal arm? ”
" I- Uhhh…. " She quickly hides her arm.
“ It looks so cool, how did you make it? Did you make it? Can I touch it? Is it just your arm that is metal? ”
" Really? Uh… I made it by hand. It's just the basics of building stuff… I did make it, it's just my arm, and sure. Why not? " She brings out her arm again.
I go up and over to the arm to examine it.
While I'm examining it, Jax walks in, with Leo. Why are they both red?
“ Hi… ” Jax says
" Uh…. " Rye stutters, not taking the hand away.
“ well this awkward ”
" Wow, you solved the f#cking case, Sherlock! No sh¡t it's awkward! " Rye says sarcastically.
“ Thanks for the sarcasm. Anyway, how are you feeling? ”
" Oh, I don't know, how 'bout you answer that question? But I'm fine. "
“ Alright, can you walk around yet? ”
" I think… "
Rye shifts to the edge of the bed, carefully standing. Rye takes a small step, apparently bracing for any pain that might come with it. Rye blinks.
" I can… apparently? " She says, sheepishly.
“ alright. well I guess it's time for a tour then
