2 and 6 + any f/o(s) for the f/ovember ask game!

Two women, a tall fair one wearing glasses and a tired-looking redhead, have received your question!

2. So, how have you and s/i been? What have you two been up to recently?

Tracy's eyes light up. "Erin and I have been working as usual, but they've been showing me around where they live when we get free time! We went to Pride together, which was really lovely. It's rather different from what I'm used to, but then so are a lot of human traditions."

Kinga gives a little shrug. "Eh... well, things have been better. There was a huge amount of destruction to the Gizmoplex, and our main test subjects have disappeared into the past with my grandma, so that's kind of a setback." She manages a small smile. "But despite it all... it's nice to have Blivian here. She's been a huge help with rebuilding, and making sure we don't work ourselves too hard. Lately we've mostly been watching video essays on faked alien evidence when we get time to relax together."

6. Be honest, what was your first impression of s/i when you first met them?

"When I first met Erin, I remember I told myself not to get attached," Tracy says. "Though I wasn't handling her case, I still felt the sting from losing my friend Derek. I didn't want to end up feeling that strongly for another human, only to have them forget me when their service was completed." She shakes her head, grinning. "Of course, we've got things worked out since then. But to answer your question, I thought they seemed nice, though a bit shy. That's pretty unusual for a human sent to work here. So despite my best efforts, I suppose my curiosity got the better of me. Thank goodness."

"Oh my god." Kinga laughs. "So what happened there was, it was an experiment day and we were all trying to get set up in the hours before we sent the movie. This tiny, crappy little ship asked permission to dock, and when we let it, Blivian comes down and introduces herself as a handyman, or maintenance or something. My first impression of her was a mix of confusion and 'this weirdo doesn't seem too bright', basically. She managed to convince me by giving me a free trial run, and she did do a good job..." She rolls her eyes. "That is, until Jonah was watching the movie and a random scene went missing because Blivian DRANK part of the Kingachrome. I was pretty pissed and made her leave after that. But she kept coming back, and well, eventually somehow she made me start to like her. That's another story, though."
