[ someone's up and awake again. Not so tired sounding, though. This time, she's remembered to go and eat before she reaches out to the rest of the hive. ]
( Is anyone in the Bearings that can give me an update on what I've... missed? As much detail as possible.
If it were safer, I might suggest we start keeping more accessible records for these... interludes. )
[ She's not fond of this not knowing everything all the time ever. Which on the note of: she sighs, little echoing tumbling thought that is edged with frustration. ]
( And... does anyone what kind of tricks lions should do? Are they meant to be predators? Are they meant to be tamed?
.... Actually, does anyone know what a lion is? I'm starting to realise I don't know very much about animals if they aren't trying to eat you. Which isn't particularly useful, right now. )
[ ... and for anyone looking for Angel, she will be with a strew of mechanical parts around her that is half in her room, half in the corridor for her shiny new, tackely bright gold performing robotic lion. ]

[ she watches it through him, feels the excitement of the crowd as the great beast moves slowly. Different to anything she knows, and yet the same. But there's something majestic to it.
Or perhaps that is only her fascination with it, with the things he tells her of, shows her. ]
( It looks amazing. ) [ a pause, matches his other memories. He gives her such lights. ] ( Was that on... Coney Island too? )
no subject
He lets the memory fade. ]
( Regular lions don't explode. I read somewhere that they sleep a lot, kinda like house cats.
What brought this up? ) [ The lion talk. ]

[ The image that pops up in reply, the closest thing she knows in reply is - a woman, she's not beautiful, she's sexy. It's sickeningly so, weaponized. She'll rip out tongues and the poor idiots let her and say thank her for the blood filling up their mouths. ]
( My cover job is "robot lion tamer", which I thought I better look the part at least. So I got a robot lion? But I realised I don't know what tricks it's meant to do. We don't really... have shows like that on Pandora. )
no subject
[ He pauses, refocuses on lions. Robot lions. ]
( You could put your head in its mouth? ) [ Not a memory, but a creation of his own: an steel lion with bright blue eyes opens its jaws wider and wider for a brightly animated Angel to carefully place her head in, applause break out from a stick figure crowd. ] ( How does he work, anyway? )
[ Does the lion have a mind of its own, like the androids? ]
no subject
( It has a program to be lion-like. I'm trying to work out the ins and outs of his... personality I guess? They write their programs differently to how I do, so it's a bit of a learning process. )
[ Tap, tap goes her fingers. ]
( I don't think putting my head in it would be too impressive, it has a kill switch to make sure it never uses excessive force against a human. )
no subject
( If all else fails, you could always teach him a song and dance. )
[ A man in a lion costume performs a lively song against a backdrop of yellow flowers and a sparkling green floor, a red ribbon tying up his mane. ]
1/2
[ But he gives her idea before she can finish. Contemplates the image for a second. She'd - maybe need someone blond for that? Maybe? Who could - ]
2/2
and she bursts into laughter. loud on the connection, and in her room. ]

then a snort, his own laughter bubbling from deep in his chest. ]
( You know - you'd have to pay the crowd to watch my singing and dancing. )
no subject
( No! I am sure they would like it! You'd look... sweet. )
[ nope, and she's back into giggling again. ]
