T hears them and lightly chuckles. "Thought I had all drones blocked right now... Oh well." Her words hold no anger.

She looks to the drone. "I'm T, yes the letter is my name, and I'm not completely sure what I am, but definitely some type of ghost." She softly smiles.

"A... ghost?" she asks quietly. Then her voice goes to more normal levels. "Like, an actual ghost?"

She looks around at the drones in the library before going back to T.

"How did you die?" she whispers.

"Pretty much." She shrugs.

T softly snickers, an almost amused expression on her face. "Right off the bat huh? Well, my heart was ripped out... And then my body was used as a costume!"

She looks... horrified. Her eyelights are completely hollow, jaw agape.

"Oh my god," she says in an airy voice. "A-are you okay?" she asks in a panicked voice.

"As okay as you can be after... Well... Being forced to relive it every now and then..."

She looks to the side before looking back, an awkward smile on her face. "Should we change the topic..?"

"Oh, uh, yeah, yeah. Let's..." She makes a nervous but airy laugh. "Let's talk about something different."

She puts her book down and readjusts her sitting position.

"So, why are you here?"

"Might seem stupid, but 'people'-watching." She blankly states.

"Oh. Yeah, I guess it would make sense to sit near me for that. Nobody's gonna look in my direction, after all..."

She groaned. "Sorry. I got all down again. I promise I'm only like that when it comes to talking about my social life."

"You're fine? The only reason I changed the topic earlier was because I could tell that you didn't like it."

She looks back to the other drones, and looks back to the drone. "Hey... either I didn't catch it, or you never said it, what's your name?"

"Mm? Oh, it's Angelica. It's nice to meet you, T."

She holds out a hand... kinda. It's still very much in her space, not held out very far.

"That's a nice name." She smiles.

T holds her hand out and does her best to 'hold' their's. "I left my hand behind, so you might fase through me..."

"Phase through? What do you meAAAN!"

She pulls her hand back instantly when it's consumed by cold.

Some drones nearby look at her, and she shrinks into her chair, averting her eyes.

T looks at them. "Did you forget we're in a library?" She lightly jokes.

"hold on, I'll be visible do you don't look weird." Nothing changes for Angelica, but now others can see her.

The others all have hollowed eyelights, and a mix of different reactions.

"Yeah, for a moment my instincts just screamed at me."

"Fair, self preservation, sudden unknown, I get ya." She softly smiles.

"say, where are we?"

"We're in the colony's library. I spend time her a lot. The apartment tends to be empty most of the time. Oh, and there's a lot of books."

She holds up the book she was reading. The cover shows something with a male vampire holding a human girl.

She looks at the book and immediately responds to its cover. "You like romance novels?" Her voice doesn't judge, but seems bored.

"But I meant like, are we on Copper 9 or somewhere else?"

"Oh. No, this is Xenon-42. I've never heard of Copper-9 before. Then again, there's so many exoplanets out there."

She looks down at the book.

"Romance, yes. Especially vampires."

Her vents kick up a few notches, as she... drools?

"...aH..." T watches them, contemplating on what to say next.

Her vents heave as she drools. The book is held close to her chest.

"O-kay... You do you I guess..." T looks to the side.

"Thanks. Maybe next time you're there and something happens... I can be there..."

"Gods, I must have some kind of savior complex," she mutters under her breath.

"Thanks, but it's not like you can stop them, just only be able to watch it happen, best thing is just helping me calm down after it..."

She looks to the side, then snaps back up to look at Spectre.

"No, you don't. You are just acing like any good mom should, and actively care and worry." She glares at them, but not in a negative way.

She chuckles.

"Mom, huh?"

"And yeah, but I thought it might help if I was there. Less time before I can help you calm down. Though saying it aloud makes it sound iffy, heheh. Maybe I'll just make sure I'm always able to be anywhere else when you need me."

"Who can say for sure..." T shrugs.

She waits a moment before speaking again. "Oh uh... Sorry I just randomly hugged you earlier... When we were working on the pods..."

Spectre walks up to her as she says, "Don't apologize. I actually liked it. You can always hug me and stuff."

She's now sitting next to T.

"My love language is touch, and well, I love you." She smiles.

"Well... I... I understand... It's just..." She paused. "I mainly hugged you because... Of those three simple words... The ones I wish Mother could have said to me... At any point... It was a little... Overwhelming? I don't know..."

She slightly shrinks in on herself.

"Alright..."

She puts a hand on T's shoulder, or rather, right above it as to not phase through.

"Could you remind me what words specifically? Was it 'Nice work, T?'" She cringes. "That came out totally wrong. Oh gods it sounds like I actually forgot them."

"Job..." She quietly said, looking away.

A moment later her shoulder is physical, having inky mass take it's shape.

She cringes in on herself.

"I'm so sorry. How could I forget that? I swear I didn't mean anything by it." Her mouth goes a mile a minute.

She sighs, and instinctively goes to put a hand on T's chin. "Oh, right." It goes back to rest on her shoulder. "I'm sorry I forgot what I had said, but I swear I still meant it just as much."

"I'm not mad! Just upset that I keep dwelling on it! That those Three. Simple. Words!..."

"Im not upset you forgot it. I just... Hope that it will go away..."

"You hope it will go away? Well, I severely hope you mean the upset feeling and not me saying those words." She leans into T, "hugging" her. "Because I'm not going to stop saying them anytime soon, I can tell."

She brings her head up to look into T's eyes.

"Maybe you'll stop dwelling on it as I say it more?" she tries joking.

"Yeah... Feeling..." She looks to Spectre.

"Maybe... I think I'll probably feel better because I told you about it..." she gives a weak smile.

She gives her own smile.

"I was able to talk about something that had been bothering me with you, and I'm happy I could do the same for you."

She opens her arms, inviting T into a hug. "Though I'd like to know how you feel when we hug like this. I hope it's effect isn't lessened by not always being able to touch you like others."

Her smile grows.

"Nah, I understand that others can't really touch me... but at least others try, and don't ignore it."

T hugs them, and it feels real, impart because of the inky mass she formed to hide under herself.

Spectre's eyes widen at the unexpected contact, but she chuckles, and holds T close.

"I'm happy to hear that. And you're doing pretty good with building a solid form during these. I'm kinda impressed."

"Lot of spare time to tinker.... And thankfully the solver tentacles are malleable." She hugs slightly tighter.

T hears them and lightly chuckles. "Thought I had all drones blocked right now... Oh well." Her words hold no anger.

She looks to the drone. "I'm T, yes the letter is my name, and I'm not completely sure what I am, but definitely some type of ghost." She softly smiles.

She looks to the side before looking back, an awkward smile on her face. "Should we change the topic..?"

"Oh, uh, yeah, yeah. Let's..." She makes a nervous but airy laugh. "Let's talk about something different."

She puts her book down and readjusts her sitting position.

"So, why are you here?"

"Might seem stupid, but 'people'-watching." She blankly states.

"Oh. Yeah, I guess it would make sense to sit near me for that. Nobody's gonna look in my direction, after all..."

She groaned. "Sorry. I got all down again. I promise I'm only like that when it comes to talking about my social life."

"You're fine? The only reason I changed the topic earlier was because I could tell that you didn't like it."

She looks back to the other drones, and looks back to the drone. "Hey... either I didn't catch it, or you never said it, what's your name?"

"Mm? Oh, it's Angelica. It's nice to meet you, T."

She holds out a hand... kinda. It's still very much in her space, not held out very far.

"That's a nice name." She smiles.

T holds her hand out and does her best to 'hold' their's. "I left my hand behind, so you might fase through me..."

"Thanks. Maybe next time you're there and something happens... I can be there..."

"Gods, I must have some kind of savior complex," she mutters under her breath.

"Thanks, but it's not like you can stop them, just only be able to watch it happen, best thing is just helping me calm down after it..."

She looks to the side, then snaps back up to look at Spectre.

"No, you don't. You are just acing like any good mom should, and actively care and worry." She glares at them, but not in a negative way.

She chuckles.

"Mom, huh?"

"And yeah, but I thought it might help if I was there. Less time before I can help you calm down. Though saying it aloud makes it sound iffy, heheh. Maybe I'll just make sure I'm always able to be anywhere else when you need me."

"Who can say for sure..." T shrugs.

She waits a moment before speaking again. "Oh uh... Sorry I just randomly hugged you earlier... When we were working on the pods..."

Spectre walks up to her as she says, "Don't apologize. I actually liked it. You can always hug me and stuff."

She's now sitting next to T.

"My love language is touch, and well, I love you." She smiles.

"Well... I... I understand... It's just..." She paused. "I mainly hugged you because... Of those three simple words... The ones I wish Mother could have said to me... At any point... It was a little... Overwhelming? I don't know..."

She slightly shrinks in on herself.
