((Ken expeirencing his human girlfriend having her period for the first time. Idea came to me as mine visited LOL)) Lauren would wake up like any other morning.. but when her brain properly processed the wet between her legs, she'd gotten up much faster than any other time--

"Ugh, fuck sake." She'd curse to herself, and carefully pull back the covers from herself; trying not to bother the doll-man on the other side of the mattress; and she winces seeing a small red spot on the sheets to boot. "God damn it." Her sigh is heavy; and she quickly hides the spot, to quiet hurry off to deal with the source of the mess first and foremost-

If she hears Ken wake at all, she pokes her head back out the bathroom, and tells him not to move, and to give her a minute. -endlessxrealities (pls tag so I get notif! .x)

He woke shortly after she got up. Usually, they would wake up around the same time. They would have lazy mornings in bed before one of them had to get up.

So the fact she was up already and not in the room---he was worried.

When she called from the bathroom he answered back.

" Oh-Okay! I'll be right here."

He wondered what was going on with her and if he could do anything for her.

@endlessxrealities

[stuffandthangsandangelwings]

He studied her face. He knew her tells; what it meant when her face got flushed. He hesitated a moment moving to rise; shorts low on his hips. " Sure...I can help reset the bed." He looked toward the sheets not really seeing anything wrong with them. " Are you alright ? Do you want to talk about it? Is there anything I can do ?" He offered.

[endlessxrealities]

When he gets up, revealing the bare chiseled chest and low hanging shorts- she audibly hums a soft ‘mm.’ Before quickly shaking her head at herself.

What was the purpose of period horniness- isn’t it like, the whole point that it’s too late for that, sorta thing at that level of things?

Anyway she’s quick to gesture for him to simply leave it be.. “I’ve got it- I’m sorry, to get you up, but.. I’ve gotta deal with this now or it’ll be a bigger problem later.”

[endlessxrealities]

He’d hear the sink running for a bit, eventually the sound of a plastic packaging opening- then the sink once more before finally she’d return to his sight; albeit now in different sleep shorts.

“I need you to get up.” She sighs.. clearly bothered, and the faint red in her face meant she was slightly flustered by whatever was going on. “I have to strip the bed.”

[stuffandthangsandangelwings]

Not so alone afterall [ closed with @endlessxrealities]

Alarms sounded ; he jumped falling out of his chair with a thud.  " Owww....I'm okay!" The blonde grumbled popping up from the floor.  He scrambled reaching for the nearest makeshift weapon as he approached the med bay. Of the three pods marked deceased one was open. The body he had seen days prior very much not in it. " What the--"

He was the only survivor. There wasn't any one else alive...right?

" Hello!!!!" He calls out, looking around. " Please don't be a space zombie." He mumbled to himself.

[stuffandthangsandangelwings]

He blinked looking towards the chair before taking a seat. " Astrophage...and that I'm a scientist and a school teacher. But that's about it." He stated. " Why am I up here? I don't--I don't feel like I should be up here. It doesn't make sense." He sighed heavily pushing his glasses on his head as he pinched the bridge of his nose. " Things keep coming back to me. Bits and pieces. Did we know each other before ?"

[endlessxrealities]

Lauren listens, as he lists multiple questions.

Once she gathers it’s her turn to speak, she takes another breath, before deciding where and how to begin.

“Well- uh, we knew each other, yeah.” She nods. “We met about I think- two weeks before launch..? Maybe three.” She scratches at her head a moment, glancing aside.. how much was she technically allowed to tell him, anyway?

“The uh.. so basically, Astrophage was-is- killing the stars. Namely, the sun, and therefore cooling the earth, eventually leading to an extinction level ice age… if nothing was done to stop it.” She makes sure to look at him, ever so often to check if he needed a second, or that he was following at all.

“It was proven to be a very fast-acting threat, and alongside many other scientists all around the world, you were brought in to.. figure it out.” She tells him, as gently as she could, given the weight. “Your methods were.. unorthodox, but..” there’s a tiny moment of a fond smile, and a glance away again.. as she recalls some instances of his explanations and showcases.

“.. you were quickly decided as the master of astrophage… hence, why you’re here.” That last bit, the smiles gone, and she avoids direct eye contact.

[stuffandthangsandangelwings]

He nods taking it all in as she speaks. " I understand... That does make sense. " As she spoke; some things came back to him. " I'm a scientist, sure...But I was teaching middle school kids. Why on Earth would you come to me of all people. Why don't I remember? You woke with all your memories ---Why didn't I ? That part I don't understand. I suppose it could be a side effect of the coma. But again you remember."

He watched her; seeing how she seemed to look away. What was that about ? He wondered.

" You know I didn't get to the others in time. I woke up too late. I couldn't do anything and then I thought you were also gone. " he sighed heavily. " I was going to give them their send offs today. "

[endlessxrealities]

She takes in that information with a small swallow. “Well, I suppose I’m glad you were dragging your feet on that.” Otherwise she’d really be dead.

“If it’s any consolation though, I looked at the records, there was nothing you could’ve done.” She tells him, that’s true.

“Yao’s been dead for multiple months, and Ilyukhina, for a few weeks.” Hearts stopping few days after their tubes clogged, given lack of nutrients already in the body to take from.

“I- apparently, died a day before you woke up.” She clicks her tongue. “Turns out, even NASA-grade AI, is still AI, and it figured a third tube clogging meant the person inside was good as dead anyway; hence my pod then being marked as such.”

She glances at him, again, considering that line. “As for the memories I.. can’t say.” Literally. “- I’m not exactly a doctor, I just know that coma does weird things to people’s brains.”

[stuffandthangsandangelwings]

(("I need that." "A Grace baby?" "Yes." -- ASK AND YE SHALL RECIEVE)) It's the weekend on Erid.

Or, the equivlent of one.. no class today. So Grace was home, reading one of the physical books Rocky had gifted him using many new Eridian technologies and the vast source that was Rockys own 'portable earth thinking machine'.

"Hey, Ry..?" Lauren, once pilot, now partner; apprehensively enters the living room of their also Rocky-crafted house. Her face turned in a way that meant she was trying to figure something out. Gaze outward, but not neccecarily at any actual target; and her hands held in such a way that indicated an attempt to count something..

"How long, earth wise, since we got here?" -endlessxrealities

He doesn't hear her at first. " Huh..." He blinked carefully marking the page in his book before he moved to set it down her words registering after a moment. He adjusts his glsses putting them on his head as he rubbed his eyes.

Oh yeah. He needed to take a break from reading. His eyes were starting to hurt.

He hummed in thought. He gives her a soft, teasing smile. " Why? Getting tired of being with me..." he gets up from his chair walking over to Lauren and kissed her lovingly. " It's been a little over 2 months..." He studied her face. " Is something wrong, Honey ?"

[endlessxrealities]

His lips brought her some comfort in the anxiety- but the answer to her question had it back in an instant- and twice fold.

“Two months?” She repeats.. eyes wide. Her eyes move from him, once again no longer at a real target; her mind trying to double check his claim but.. no, that.. that felt about right..

“Fuck.” She whispered first; hands coming up to her face, “Fuck!” It’s louder the second time.

She turns her entire body away from Grace; forcing his arms back to fall to his sides, and she steps into a brief pace, before halting and crouching down, still holding her face in her hands.. “..mother fucker.”

Ironically, all she can think about right now is how she’d thought it hilarious when someone had voiced if possibly somehow creating a condom that wouldn’t deteriorate after twelve years for the mixed-gender mission team, may come into play.. ‘don’t be ridiculous, Yao may be leaving his wife behind but he’s a loyal husband, and Ilyukhina’s a lesbian for crying out loud-‘ she’d said.

God, how does it always come back to god damn Ryland Grace not being part of the original plan? [-as far they had them believing at the time, anyway-].

Lauren’s hands smooth back over her hairline and she stares stressed, forward.

[stuffandthangsandangelwings]

He watched her, a worried look on his face.

" Babe. Honey--Sweethheart, love of my life...I can't help if you don't tell me what's wrong."

He moved coming around to face her. He got down on her level. He reached out cupping her face. " Lauren, sweetheart. Look at me ? Why are you so upset ?" He studied her face blue eyes meeting her gaze.

[endlessxrealities]

Her eyes are glossy, and take a second to properly focus on his lovely face looking at hers… her chest heaving just slightly, as her heart beats hard in her chest.

“I’m late.” She whispers at first.. “my period’s late.” She clarifies. “-by two months, apparently.”

" Hello!!!!" He calls out, looking around. " Please don't be a space zombie." He mumbled to himself.

[stuffandthangsandangelwings]

He nods following after her; much like an eager yellow lab.

" Great so that be great. So you're a pilot right ? Because I'm not at all prepared to fly. I'm a scientist but not a pilot."

[endlessxrealities]

“Yeah-.” She tells him, just as they reach the small ladder to climb into the cockpit. “-I know.” She sits herself in the first seat,

"ℙ𝕚𝕝𝕠𝕥 𝔻𝕖𝕥𝕖𝕔𝕥𝕖𝕕" More switches, dials and lights turn on, much like they did when Grace would sit in the chairs. Much unlike Grace however, Lauren clips herself in half-hazardly, to allow proper access, and greets- "A-LP Alpha." Lauren says, and presses a finger on the side of something, a quick beep is heard and the ship responds again;

"𝕎𝕖𝕝𝕔𝕠𝕞𝕖, 𝕊ℙ-"

"Just 'Lauren' please, Mary."

"𝕌𝕟𝕕𝕖𝕣𝕤𝕥𝕠𝕠𝕕. ℍ𝕖𝕝𝕝𝕠 𝕃𝕒𝕦𝕣𝕖𝕟."

As this oddly small-talk-like exchange happens, Lauren is without confusion, making sense of the many readings, controls, etc.

"Where are we looking at, then?"

"𝕋𝕣𝕒𝕧𝕖𝕝 𝕥𝕠 𝕋𝕒𝕦 ℂ𝕖𝕥𝕚, 𝕠𝕟 𝕤𝕔𝕙𝕖𝕕𝕦𝕝𝕖; 𝕥𝕚𝕞𝕖 𝕡𝕒𝕤𝕤𝕖𝕕 𝕖𝕢𝕦𝕒𝕝 𝟙𝟙.𝟡 𝕃𝕐; 𝕒𝕝𝕝 𝕗𝕦𝕖𝕝 𝕓𝕒𝕪𝕤 𝕤𝕥𝕒𝕓𝕝𝕖; 𝕖𝕟𝕖𝕣𝕘𝕪 𝕤𝕥𝕠𝕣𝕖𝕤 𝕤𝕥𝕒𝕓𝕝𝕖; 𝕥𝕚𝕞𝕖 𝕣𝕖𝕞𝕒𝕚𝕟𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝕓𝕖𝕗𝕠𝕣𝕖 𝕒𝕣𝕣𝕚𝕧𝕒𝕝, 𝕔𝕒𝕝𝕔𝕦𝕝𝕒𝕥𝕖𝕕 𝟘.𝟘𝟛𝟞𝟝 𝕃𝕐."

[stuffandthangsandangelwings]

He waited watching in almost awe as she gets into the chair flipping switches he had no idea what they were. " It's been 11.9 years. And we're nearing Tau Ceti..." he mumbled under his breath even before Mary could get it out. " No offense but I could have told you that."

[endlessxrealities]

“I’m just following protocol, Dr. Grace.” She informs him, calmly, but in a way that tells him not to interfere.

From knowing him briefly on earth, she knew he was close to a genius, but they did not need a know-it-all attitude right off the gate.

Then again, she remind herself he’s been awake for a while already, completely alone, he was likely in a bit of shock himself, actually.. like herself.

Lauren sits back in the seat, and rubs at her forehead with a sigh.. forcing herself to stop the pure training mode, rather than human.

“All is well, then Mary?” She asks aloud.

"𝔸𝕗𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕞𝕒𝕥𝕚𝕧𝕖"

"Okay." The word comes through like a sigh, some relief she supposed.

[stuffandthangsandangelwings]

" I understand that but it's been days. I have been alone for days. I woke up and I don't even know why I'm up here..."

Ryland taps his foot lightly; agitated. He studied Lauren for a moment. He feels like they knew each other before. Maybe not well. The more he looked at her the more he decided he liked her features. Back on Earth he wondered if maybe they dated ? He definitely could see himself maybe asking her out.

He blinked, clearing his throat. " So... uh....what happens now?" He asked softly.

[endlessxrealities]

Lauren sits another moment.. eyes closed, before finally opening them and turning in the mobile pilot chair towards him, and gestures to the second seat just behind where he stood.

“Tell me what you do remember.”

Grace nods, standing there a bit awkwardly. He moved gripping the console. " Uh yeah...sure. We don't have a lot to get into today. I mean-- well I've got somethings I'm working on."

He looked at her meeting her eyes. " Did you find out what happened? Are your memories fuzzy to ?"

[endlessxrealities]

She blinks, a bit confused by what he was saying, so she moves to head onward, figured he’d follow anyway. “No, I uh- I meant that I need to check in with navigation, and all that..” she says. “.. then we can sit and talk, about-“

It processes then, he’s mentioned now how his memories are limited, and she remembers.. ‘he won’t remember it that way’

She glances back over her shoulder at him as she keeps on, “I’ll answer what I can.”

[stuffandthangsandangelwings]

" Yeah let me help." He said. " Im the assistance."

Really, Grace? He thinks to himself shaking his head.

" It's okay. I know it hurts. But it'll pass. You're just hungry and it's been awhile since you've moved."

He stood at her side helping her lay back on the platform the robot getting closer and checking her vitals. Grace stood there awkwardly not sure what to do. He just moved out of the way so that Mary could check her over.

[endlessxrealities]

"𝕃𝕒𝕥𝕖 𝕊𝕥𝕒𝕘𝕖𝕤 ℂ𝕒𝕥𝕒𝕓𝕠𝕝𝕚𝕤𝕞; 𝕃𝕚𝕡𝕠𝕝𝕪𝕤𝕚𝕤, 𝕕𝕖𝕥𝕖𝕔𝕥𝕖𝕕." The voice echoes; "𝕄𝕖𝕥𝕒𝕓𝕠𝕝𝕚𝕔 𝕊𝕝𝕠𝕨𝕕𝕠𝕨𝕟 𝕚𝕟 𝕖𝕗𝕗𝕖𝕔𝕥. 𝔸𝕕𝕞𝕚𝕟𝕚𝕤𝕥𝕣𝕒𝕥𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝕀𝕍 𝕗𝕝𝕦𝕚𝕕𝕤 𝕒𝕟𝕕 𝕖𝕡𝕠𝕩𝕪𝕞𝕠𝕣𝕡𝕙𝕚𝕟𝕒𝕟-𝟛,𝟞-𝕕𝕚𝕠𝕝, 𝕡𝕝𝕖𝕒𝕤𝕖 𝕣𝕖𝕞𝕒𝕚𝕟 𝕤𝕥𝕚𝕝𝕝."

She hisses as one mechanic arm grasps her wrist, and another inserts a needle into her arm.

"ℙ𝕝𝕖𝕒𝕤𝕖 𝕒𝕝𝕝𝕠𝕨 𝕤𝕠𝕞𝕖 𝕥𝕚𝕞𝕖 𝕗𝕠𝕣 𝕞𝕖𝕕𝕚𝕔𝕒𝕥𝕚𝕠𝕟 𝕥𝕠 𝕥𝕒𝕜𝕖 𝕖𝕗𝕗𝕖𝕔𝕥. 𝕎𝕙𝕖𝕟 𝕒𝕓𝕝𝕖, 𝕤𝕖𝕖𝕜 𝕔𝕒𝕝𝕠𝕣𝕚𝕖 𝕒𝕟𝕕 𝕗𝕝𝕦𝕚𝕕 𝕚𝕟𝕥𝕒𝕜𝕖, 𝕒𝕥 𝕤𝕝𝕠𝕨 𝕚𝕟𝕥𝕣𝕠𝕕𝕦𝕔𝕥𝕠𝕣𝕪 𝕣𝕒𝕥𝕖𝕤, 𝕥𝕠 𝕒𝕧𝕠𝕚𝕕 𝕗𝕦𝕣𝕥𝕙𝕖𝕣 𝕦𝕡𝕤𝕖𝕥𝕥𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝕪𝕠𝕦𝕣 𝕤𝕪𝕤𝕥𝕖𝕞."

[stuffandthangsandangelwings]

Grace stood there abit awkwardly. " Oh man..Okay. That's worse than I thought. I'm gonna get you a hydration drink. Then later we're gonna try broth. That should help and be easy on your stomach." He offered. He knew he was rambling again. " I'm so glad you're alive. It's been days. I really thought I was all alone."

[endlessxrealities]

“Dr. Grace.” She manages.. already feeling a bit of some relief from the morphine. Shes sighing, clearly a bit agitated obviously but also acknowledging his help.

“I’m sure you have questions-.” She groans softly at another poke from the robot. “-but if you can give me some time, here..”

Before he can walk away though, she adds gingerly, and genuinely.. “..and thank you.”

[stuffandthangsandangelwings]

He nodded. " Of course.. Sorry. I'll be back to check on you in a bit. " He said as he runs a hand through his hair. " Do you remember everything? Just curious--I didn't have a lot of my memory when I woke up." He holds his hands up. " Sorry that's probably a lot to ask about right now. I mean you just got up. Okay I'll be back in a bit." He said backing out of the med bay.

[endlessxrealities]

She listens to his departure, and finally sighs in relief… the medicine quickly easing the pain, and the silence allowing her brain to catch up.

Laying there for about 30minutes, before she once again - and this time slowly, sits up,

The robot suggests staying put, but does ultimately offer the IV bag for the taking with her.

The next hour is calm, and quiet besides the humming of the ship, while she properly discards the coma attire, and cleans herself up. She finds a hydration pack, and slowly sips upon it as she settles by the med bay console.. “now, let’s find out what the hell went wrong..”

[stuffandthangsandangelwings]

Grace does his best to give her some time to adjust. He doesn't want to overwhelm her with questions or anything like that. He knows he can be a much at times. It's a little over an hour before he comes to the medbay; peeking in. He lingered in the doorway watching her at the console. " Hey uh...do you want to try food ? "

[endlessxrealities]

When he came back, she’d be stood at the console, leaning forward, head hung.. the word DECEASED haunting in her head.. behind her closed eyes, all that she’d read settling in horrible truth.

When he speaks, she sniffles and glances over at him for just a moment- quickly straightening up and wiping her eyes.

“No- uh, not right now.” She swallows, and clicks off the specific stuff she’d been checking; clearance protected stuff.

Taking a breath, and meets his eyes, properly for probably the first time in the twelve years she’d just learned that they’ve been up here.

“Thank you, though.” She remembers her manners, and then gestures back out the bay, figuring they should go sit somewhere to talk.

“I should check with the helm, before we get into too much.”

@stuffandthangsandangelwings (Ken, because why the hell not)

The dark is disturbed as the door to the apartment opens and the hallway lights shine in.

Lauren lets out a heavy breath, as she tosses her keys aside and hits the lights, shutting and locking the door behind her.

She kicks the heels off her feet, letting them fly unceremoniously into the room.

Another wedding of a friend survived, alone.

She goes through the motions; a glass of water and some aspirin, to help with the amount of alchohol she'd had -an open bar, the only thing she ever enjoys at weddings- a small wash up of her face, pin up of her hair, and discarding the dress she'd bought for the wedding, never to touch it again. Walking into her bedroom, she feels the chilly breeze from the window, and she approaches to properly close it; glancing out at the starry night sky, and seeing a particularly bright star, not an uncommon sight.

She stares for just a moment, and lets her brain go through the silly motion of considering a wish..

She thinks of the way she watched the groom look at the bride all evening.. just, so enamored. As if she had truly been the source of his oxygen; the reason his world turned... like she hung the moon. Like she was the only and most beautiful thing in the room.

"Yeah.. I wish." Lauren murmurs under her breath, looking at that star for not a moment longer, before locking the window and shutting the curtains tight.. flopping into her bed, wrapping her arms around her pillow, and shutting her eyes with a final soft sigh.

Tomorrow was another day, after all.

[stuffandthangsandangelwings]

Ken can't help but smile. When their fingers touched he felt electricity in his veins.

She was definitely the one that called him here. But how do you tell someone.

I'm the wish you asked for.

He watched her turn and moved out of the way. He goes to a small table and made himself comfortable. When she turned back their eyes meet and he gives her another smile and a little wave.

He moved to drink his coffee taking a sip before adding in everything and grimacing at the taste. He learned then he did not like coffee at all. Even with cream and sugar. When she didn't have so many customers he was going to order something else and try and " shoot his shot" as humans said.

[endlessxrealities]

She’s carrying on, making and taking orders, running them to tables too. She’s efficient, honestly on a bit of an auto-pilot as per usual with the repetitive job, and life she’s conjured for herself.

Wake up, go to work, go home, see all her former classmates post about being promoted, married, engaged or pregnant, while she sat on her couch with microwave rice and the same sitcom playing in the background.

Unfortunately for the blonde beach boy, it’s her coworker that calls him to the til when he’s in line again.. Lauren giving a customer their order through the drive thru window.

Alarms sounded ; he jumped falling out of his chair with a thud.  " Owww....I'm okay!" The blonde grumbled popping up from the floor.  He scrambled reaching for the nearest makeshift weapon as he approached the med bay. Of the three pods marked deceased one was open. The body he had seen days prior very much not in it. " What the--"

He was the only survivor. There wasn't any one else alive...right?

" Hello!!!!" He calls out, looking around. " Please don't be a space zombie." He mumbled to himself.

[stuffandthangsandangelwings]

" Yeah let me help." He said. " Im the assistance."

Really, Grace? He thinks to himself shaking his head.

" It's okay. I know it hurts. But it'll pass. You're just hungry and it's been awhile since you've moved."

He stood at her side helping her lay back on the platform the robot getting closer and checking her vitals. Grace stood there awkwardly not sure what to do. He just moved out of the way so that Mary could check her over.

Grace stood there abit awkwardly. " Oh man..Okay. That's worse than I thought. I'm gonna get you a hydration drink. Then later we're gonna try broth. That should help and be easy on your stomach." He offered. He knew he was rambling again. " I'm so glad you're alive. It's been days. I really thought I was all alone."

[endlessxrealities]

“Dr. Grace.” She manages.. already feeling a bit of some relief from the morphine. Shes sighing, clearly a bit agitated obviously but also acknowledging his help.

“I’m sure you have questions-.” She groans softly at another poke from the robot. “-but if you can give me some time, here..”

Before he can walk away though, she adds gingerly, and genuinely.. “..and thank you.”

[stuffandthangsandangelwings]

He nodded. " Of course.. Sorry. I'll be back to check on you in a bit. " He said as he runs a hand through his hair. " Do you remember everything? Just curious--I didn't have a lot of my memory when I woke up." He holds his hands up. " Sorry that's probably a lot to ask about right now. I mean you just got up. Okay I'll be back in a bit." He said backing out of the med bay.

[endlessxrealities]

She listens to his departure, and finally sighs in relief… the medicine quickly easing the pain, and the silence allowing her brain to catch up.

Laying there for about 30minutes, before she once again - and this time slowly, sits up,

The robot suggests staying put, but does ultimately offer the IV bag for the taking with her.

Waking up gasping with a dry throat and something inside it was painful. Pulling the thing out was painful; and falling at least six feet to the floor was painful.

All she could hear was some sort of alarm, and flashing red lights would not allow her eyes to adjust.

There’s an intense agony in her stomach- like she was hungry, no, starving.

“Oh god-“ she wheezes -that hurt too, pushing up to her hands and knees.. she crawled forward until hitting some kind of wall, finding the corner.. and curling up on herself in the agony..

When someone else entered the space, they’d find her curled up in that spot, close to unconscious again..

[stuffandthangsandangelwings]

As Ryland neared he found her doubled over in pain. "OH! HEY! You're not dead!" He practically dove down onto the floor crouching by her. " Hey ...Hey you good? I mean --yeah are you okay? You don't look hurt? How are you alive! I'm so glad." He said hugging her before he pulled back. " Oh man...sorry I'm Grace! Dr. Ryland Grace....I uh...I don't really remember you. It's okay to be disoriented at first. I didn't remember anything for a few days and it's still coming back to me." He rambled. He looked her over making sure she wasn't hurt. She looked fine. He was so glad to not be alone. He got a warm feeling looking at her but he didn't know why ? He couldn't remember her but he felt close to her. And instant attraction.

[endlessxrealities]

“Stop-.” She’s able to croak, and feebily push her arm out; needing him away from her, now-

A disgusting sound quickly followed, as her body hurched like a scared cat, and a small mouthful of bile came up- nothing else in her stomach besides that.

It burns, her stomach so upset, it feels like her chest is constricting, and breathing is like swallowing nails.

Mary, the ship’s AI says nothing yet but the actual medical bed slides out, and the arms come forward to help..

“𝕚𝕥 𝕤𝕠𝕦𝕟𝕕𝕤 𝕝𝕚𝕜𝕖 𝕪𝕠𝕦 𝕒𝕣𝕖 𝕚𝕟 𝕕𝕚𝕤𝕥𝕣𝕖𝕤𝕤, 𝕡𝕝𝕖𝕒𝕤𝕖, 𝕒𝕝𝕝𝕠𝕨 𝕞𝕖𝕕𝕚𝕔𝕒𝕝 𝕚𝕟𝕥𝕖𝕣𝕧𝕖𝕟𝕥𝕚𝕠𝕟.”

[stuffandthangsandangelwings]

" Oh man...Oh man...yeah that happened to me to. It's okay. I mean it's not it's just been a minute since you've had anything to eat or drink...it's been a long time." He moved then, rambling, trying to think of anything to help. He gingerly reached to take her arm and helped her up onto the table. " I'm gonna help..it took an embarrassingly long time fof me to get back my motor function. I did a lot of face plants."

[endlessxrealities]

God, he was talking too much right now.

Still, she can’t do anything but let him help her over to the table, her hand pushing the first attempt of the arms assist, aside.

"𝔽𝕠𝕣 𝕪𝕠𝕦𝕣 𝕠𝕨𝕟 𝕤𝕒𝕗𝕖𝕥𝕪, 𝕡𝕝𝕖𝕒𝕤𝕖 𝕣𝕖𝕔𝕝𝕚𝕟𝕖 𝕦𝕡𝕠𝕟 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕡𝕝𝕒𝕥𝕗𝕠𝕣𝕞."

"It hurts." Lauren argues, trying not to hunch over again.

The robot's camera tilts slightly and hums a moment.. "𝕍𝕚𝕥𝕒𝕝𝕤 𝕦𝕟𝕤𝕥𝕒𝕓𝕝𝕖. ℙ𝕝𝕖𝕒𝕤𝕖, 𝕝𝕒𝕪 𝕕𝕠𝕨𝕟 𝕒𝕟𝕕 𝕒𝕝𝕝𝕠𝕨 𝕒𝕤𝕤𝕚𝕤𝕥𝕒𝕟𝕔𝕖."
