I WILL SEE YOU AGAIN, WILL I ?

> strange. strange. how strange.

you've only met for a few minutes, have you ? how long does your familiarity span ?

still, despite merely listening, they find themselves hugging tighter. weak compared to the other, but still --

> they don't speak a word. it's unnecessary to do so, nor is it in their habit. they were never accustomed to speaking-- conveying words are too much of a challenge.

*. . .*

they stood still in the embrace for a moment.

just, what was, this, exactly ? why is it heating up ? who was this ? why is he so familiar and why isn't any of their programs defying this like standard protocol ?

> so many unsaid questions -- yet, they find themselves hugging back despite how tightly he was holding them.

they're not as frail as they used to be. they've been remodeled slightly. those gaps that used to have rain seep into to break their circuits are closed.

> they don't speak, nor can they show any emotion -- but in a way, they still have the courtesy to wait. patience is key, especially for the other. he's important to them.

*. . .*

. . . ?

[cocoablog]

> no response comes from it. there's none, ungiven, nor is there any that are pending. they just stand there, staring and unmoving. still for a moment before they'd fully turn to face the NUGRAFT right before them, staring up at him while they walked closer, stopping just a few feet away.

> there is no reason they're doing this. perhaps it's a silent agreement. something else, an unexpected ambush. even then-- there's nothing stopping him from doing so either way.

*. . .*

[cocoablog]

> it's merely still, staring. they're working perfectly fine, and it should be answering this question normally, but no response comes up. but again, it's always been unusually different. even if it's been rewired to fit with modern models.

after a moment, it finally speaks up, head still cocked to the side. its tone is unusually hesitant, unsure.

… NO … ? I DO NOT RECALL. MEETING A MODEL LIKE … YOU.

> he has seen him before. he has seen him before, right ? he looks too familiar, feels too familiar, not to be.

> from the speed they're going ... well, he'll catch up anyway. their systems will it to stop, turning slightly to face the NUGRAFT.

....

> has it seen him before ? the other is saved into their database, he looks so familiar, yet-- yet-- it ends up tilting its head, half-turned towards him. despite everything, they should be a little more " friendly " with him. that's what it's telling them.

... MORNING ?

AFFIRMATIVE.

THERE HAVE BEEN NO MALFUNCTIONS AS OF LATE. ALL SYSTEMS ARE FUNCTIONAL.

THAT ' D MEAN. I ' D BE DOING .. WELL. TOO. I THINK.

HELLO. CREATOR.

> their head tilts even further. confused. "coco" and "cocoa" sound the same — they're usually called the latter as well, so it doesn't understand his confusion.

> …

> really, that just makes it even more confused — not that it can do anything about it.

> … it feels like they're forgetting something.

… ??
