You're Getting Blood In My Mouth, Corv. Hot

It wasn't your fault, Percival.

Hm, you say that...

What the hell is this all about, huh? Stupid fools, nothing better to do than pester me? What wasn't my fault?

//ooc he would never be this honest

What is a fear they never talk about?

He is terrified of dying alone. Sure, he's kind of an asshole to pretty much everyone, but he has people he trusts. People whose names he'd scream with his last breath if he lay dying in a forest somewhere. He's generally very anxious, but that scares him the most.

What is a secret they’ve sworn never to tell?

That he used to shoplift almost all of his food. Of course most people wouldn't care, he's just embarrassed that he had to (all his money went towards science projects).

Is there a pain they refuse to heal from?

Losing his hand. Though it didn't actually hurt, considering it just cracked off and wasn't severed, it still screws with him mentally. He feels like it should have hurt, that it's stupid and unfair that it didn't. That if it hurt him he'd have a reason to be so upset about losing it.

You're crying. What happened, Aurora?

*kicks his door open crying*

Can we build a self driving car.

Please.

I need. Distraction.

@dawnlighthours

Building a self-driving car isn't easy. It's not as simple as just slapping parts together, Ms. Aurora. Do you know anyone with programming knowledge? I know the basics of HTML, but that won't make our car know how to move.

First of all, before we start the programming, we need to build the car itself. Definitely include a system for the passengers to override the code if it fails at all or in an emergency. I also suggest trying to build an electric car for this. No reason, but it fits the high-tech theme with it being self-driving.

...

What do you need distracting from? And why are you crying?

There was a warrant for my arrest in Idaho for a while, but they eventually dropped it due to a clerical error, or something like that. Apparently you're not allowed to construct makeshift firearms out of steel pipe scraps. Xeno lets me do that. This is one reason that I don't support bringing the old world back.

Aurora, I'm speaking with experience here. The men in this place are not worth it. There are better things you could do. Build something, anything, it's a much better idea.

I was told to check on you. What happened?

( @drpercival )

*She looks at him, new hair cut and dye job, red eyes from crying, actively putting on lipstick like she's going out somewhere*

...was it Wren? Did Wren send you? Look, I'm fine-

...Yes, fair enough. *He kicks the door shut and drags over a bucket.*

Do you want to tell me what's going on here? *Does not immediately hug her, but sits next to her with a hand around her shoulders (not the metal one.*

*Knocking on door*

Ms. Aurora? I was coming to ask if you wanted to help me with a prototype, but... why do I hear sobbing? Should I enter?

( @drpercival )

*The door cracks open for him to come in if he wants*

How physically and emotionally affectionate are you?

I don't do physical affection usually. Not inless I'm very close with the person.

Emotionally? No. I'm not.

◎ Do you have romantic feelings for Dr Corvus?

...You must be either Sol, Ms. Aurora, Wren, or Ryaku.

Actually, Wren's too respectful and Sol would ask if I wanted to fuck him.

But... yes. I think so.
