[ and you know what he sort of thinks he already was and isn't that kind of a scary thought so he's going to ignore it ]

told you it was dumb to have a security system without tasers or something

[motherofnemesis]

he likes me anyways
i'm nice

[fe_male]

that is so not how he works

[motherofnemesis]

no? then maybe he's just been hiding his inability to kick me out under lies
that would be sad

[fe_male]

he is MY AI after all
what makes you think he can't lie

[motherofnemesis]

oh, well, put it like that
i'm sure he can lie exceptionally

[fe_male]

not sure how i feel about the ease with which you agreed but okay
he can't, actually, but for something that can't lie he's pretty good at being evasive as hell

[motherofnemesis]

i'm just humoring you
i'm still pretty sure he likes me no matter what you say

[fe_male]

uh huh
he probably does; he's annoyingly easy to sway to one side or another.

[motherofnemesis]

well now that you're back i'm sure he'll return to his roots or whatever

[fe_male]

we'll see
he's made to learn and adapt so if he accepted you already
there's probably something to it

[motherofnemesis]

he's got superior taste
but feel free to adapt security protocols if you don't want me getting in so easily

[fe_male]

oh that was happening anyway but i'm glad i have your permission

[motherofnemesis]

i'm a thoughtful person, i like to think ahead
good to have you back though. you know where to find the good stuff

[fe_male]

you can use me for my body too, don't feel limited to just the mind

[motherofnemesis]

oh yeah? i'll keep that in mind

[fe_male]

good. you do that

[motherofnemesis]

not on that note, i need to pick up something i left plugged in. i'll knock and everything.

[fe_male]

hope it hasn't been reappropriated

[motherofnemesis]

i can rereappropriate if it has been
eta 20 minutes

[fe_male]

how much you wanna bet

[ what are we doing with this thread ]

[motherofnemesis]

let me hold on that

[ she's going travelling across town to knock on your door, because she wants to see how badly anything has potentially been reappropriated before she answers that question. knock knock, tony, she's not even going in the back how polite is that.

i believe we talked about her noticing emotional differences now that he's back? ]

[fe_male]

[ oui yes we did he is a little less buoyant, not really any more despairing - he's if anything more resigned to this place the second time - but he's missing someone. and he was missing her before but doing a good job not letting it hit the surface too often. this time however, same person, her loss means a lot more to him, at least on some level. it always meant a lot. but, he's having a harder time keeping it tamped down from someone like her. he won't look any different, but he'll have a different sense or feel to him. beyond that he's JUST got back so he's stressed right now but not too bad. ]

Did you seriously just knock?

[motherofnemesis]

[ the stress is the first thing to really come across, but it's still unmistakably Tony, so that's good. no imposters or whatever. her face is very blandly innocent as she looks at him. ]

I said I would. Can't break a promise.

[fe_male]

[ no impostors. aside from all that ~vibing, the only difference is that his hair is shorter again and his goatee is technically a beard now. ]

Points for you. Totally didn't remember that. C'mon in then, mi almacén triste es su almacén triste. [ moving back in, come in, come in, it looks basically the same, he's just working on a few different things now. ]
