[She's wandering around, and though the memorial hall seems like a morbid place to go... When she sees 45 instead, she stops in the doorway, tilting her head.]
Checking to see if anyone new showed up in here yet?
You got me. I wasn't sure if the body was actually Yu or a very convincing double, so I had to check.
[ Ha. ]
I do wonder why these places insist on something like this, though. [ pause. ] Well, I suppose there wasn't a direct analogue in the mansion, but I suppose the graveyard would have been similar enough.
Well, that's two out of eight down, so I guess that just leaves one of the other six...
[ who cursed them with this. ]
... You know, every time we hear more about where you all came from, it sounds like you really drew the short stick out of all of us. Sex demon boats aside.
[She pauses for a long moment, expression shifting into something like regret, but her voice is even when she speaks.]
We still didn't know it was a hard and fast rule before she broke it, or we would have tried harder to keep her inside. She was trying to help someone else who was stuck out there.
Nothing you say ever makes where you came from sound any better.
[ will robowest ever catch a break. ]
But you still don't know what to make of them, huh. ... Well, someone has to balance Akira out, I guess. It seems our experiences with various hosts range all across the board, as far as helpfulness and intentions go.
[ if natalie isn't catching them immediately post-pileup then 45 disappears for a while, but eventually she might come across her near the laundry room, dressed in a poncho, the gatonina tie dye shirt they all woke up in, and the booty shorts, though she's at least wearing her boots instead of the sandals.
it's about as cleaned up as she's going to get, all things considered. one of the machines is rumbling worrying along, but it's fine. when someone comes in, she only spares them a brief glance, expression blankly neutral, before her usual smile makes its way across her face...
[ to that, she spreads her arms. it lifts her poncho up enough so that her legs and arms are visible, and she wiggles her fingers for emphasis. ]
Ta-da. You've seen me.
[ mostly, now that all the blood and other fluids (???) have been cleaned off of her, it just looks like mild cosmetic damage, hard to notice unless they're looking for it. whatever roomba skin is made out of in 2063, it seems decently resilient, at least?
and she's not currently wearing any of the clothing with bullet holes and jagged tears through it, so. haha? ]
Storage building of some sort. What remained of the original layout after the remnants transformed it indicated such, anyway.
Previous experiences pointed to breaking into locked places usually having at least some value. So, Minako, Tonbokiri, and I met up and we bowled down the door.
A squad shrouded in mystery. ▓▓▓▓▒ has met them once, and others can only guess at the members' identities from rumors. Members of the squad all have advanced AI and high capacity for independent operation. Rumor has it that Squad 404 usually deals with ░▓▒▓▓▓▒▓▓▒▒▒░░

Pretty creepy, though, right? No matter what place it's inspired by.

The guy in charge of ours was way more of an asshole than these ones. Or, more of an asshole than they seem like on a surface level, at least.
[She still has 0 trust.]
