@wildkaart: ( from N! ) "I'm here for you. No matter where or when, I'll always be here for you."

optical screen flickers― eyes previously squeezed shut now flickers into something softer, a little less tense, as her gaze shifts toward n. a smile, too, graces her features, however strained it may be. k is still rather upset, but it's hard not to feel comforted in the company of perhaps the only one to ever offer that sort of comfort. j and v certainly aren't the types for it, even if she does regard both of them highly and cherish them just as much.

...well, in the case of j, she did. but now j is a mangled mess, courtesy of uzi's railgun. even if k has come around to the idea of finding out more about themselves, it's hard not to be upset at the apparent loss of what she'd go as far as to call family.

but she does reach over to give n's hand an appreciative squeeze, before she goes on to sign― ah, maybe they can find a way to repair her voice program, if they're going to explore around here?

« you always have been, » she reassures with the gestures of her hands, and even a lean of her head against their shoulder. « and i'm always here for you, too. just because we fought back there doesn't mean that's changed. otherwise, i wouldn't be here now, ready to help you and your new friend. »

it's then that her expression becomes something a little bit more solemn again, muted sigh falling past her lips. « i just wish j could have been here too. v, too― but at least she's alright. just... chained up. » k doesn't think that will last long, though. but maybe v will have the decency not to try and kill the trio again if and when she does free herself.

« ...are we really going to get out of here, though? off of this planet? where would we even go...? »
