Qi getting himself ready was... Stupid, as Uzi meant 'Surface Time' tomorrow... Or, well, today.

Qi is working beside Uzi, a data-pad held in his hands, he's reading the latest 'Brainous Bots!' a digital magazine about all the robo genius' living in the bunkers on Copper-9... Qi has put a post into it since his creation...

He has yet to get accepted though... "Shoot... Still no spot..." Qi hums, only glancing up as Uzi scoffs.

"Ugh," She swipes her keycard, and as the door begins to open, Qi stuffs the data-pad into his pocket, smiling widely... Only for both of them to jump slightly when spotting...

"Robo-Jesus!" Uzi grunts, a hand to her chest

"Robo-Jesus!" Uzi grunts, a hand to her chest...

"And where might you two be off to?" He crosses his arms, giving them both a scrutinizing gaze...

"Uhm..." Uzi gulps, looking at the walls... "Sneaking out to make out with my boyfriend that I definitely have..?" She squints.

"You have a boyfriend..?" Qi hums, bringing a hand up to his chin...

"No, but thats the part we don't tell him, idiot..." Uzi sighs, shaking her head...

She groans, "Okay, okay!" She huffs, her arms crossing, "You caught us... I need to... Uh..." She squints then nudges Qi's side...

"Huh? Oh! Mr. Doorman, can I call you sir?" Qi starts...

"Hum, well... It does make me feel a little respected..." Khan hums...

"Uzi and I are working on a school project!" Qi smiles, "We have to measure the exterior hydraulic mechanisms of Door One."

Uzi laughs sarcastically, butting in, "Yup! A big old door!" Her sarcastic laugh becomes awkward, and she puts on a goofy accent, "Just like what my old man built."

She pats Qi's shoulder, "We wanna join the WDF and hide behind... Doors like cowards while playing cards and stuff..." Qi nods.

Her father chuckles, shaking his head, "Well, we don't just play cards." The door behind him suddenly opens, revealing a table with some Worker Drones sat at it...

One of them, a name tag with Makarov written on it, raises his voice, "Khan, can you grab a fresh pack?" He looks down at his cards, "We literally only play cards so much that the numbers have faded."

He then spots the two younger Drones, "Oh! Hey, Uzi, Qi." He waves.

Uzi smirks, and Qi waves back... Khan shuts the door... "Well..." He clears his throat, "When you build doors so good..." He turns to the door, hugging it...
