[CrimsonMoon]

" Do ya need help?"He asks gently, smiling and pretending to flex

[Light]

"...think I threw up a little," she looks at the tag before in the box, "--I've managed to this day without you, I can go on a lot longer still,"

[CrimsonMoon]

" You almost threw up because you couldn't stand life without me," he teases," Can I take Rook out for a walk??"

[Light]

"The point of me waking up at this god forsaken hour is to make upgrades on him--so no. No you cannot--unless you want to buy me lunch for wasting my time," she takes a drink from her cup, and grabs a handful of clear wires from the crate.

[CrimsonMoon]

" Like... Like a date?" He squeaks happily, shrieking like school girl

[Light]

She covers her ears with a hand and a cup, "No you DOLT! When did I ever say the word date? I didn't--" the mech beeps pitifully, and the girl tosses the wires back in the box, "Men! The lot of you! I can't--I won't do this so early in the morning!"

[CrimsonMoon]

Crimson smiles and grins," You're so nice though..."

[Light]

"Your imagination is overactive! What makes you think I'm nice?" she huffs and tips her cup back again.

[CrimsonMoon]

" Te way you take care of Rook," he murmurs, hugging the mech's neck

[Light]

She mumbles something into her cup, "Yeah--well of course I take care of him like I do. You still want to go on a walk?" Rook beeps, the visor lighting up in a bright flash.

[CrimsonMoon]

He grins, resting his hands on his knees," Yes-"

[Light]

"Then go already, I have parts to unload, and your talking isn't helping me finish." the cockpit opens slowly, the screens inside loads up.

[CrimsonMoon]

He huffs and slides down," See ya later nuke baby," he chirps, moving down and through the hangar

[Light]

"I said you could take him out..." she mumbles while crossing her arms, "Oh well..." with a shrug of her shoulders, the brunette starts unpacking the parts, and lining them up.

[CrimsonMoon]

He waves and smiles, weving out of the hangar

[Light]

The mech starts playing some kind of rock music as its pilot leaves, the other workers sighing and grabbing headphones--they came prepared today...

[CrimsonMoon]

He smiles and walks out of the hangar, moving out of the base... He wanted to explore the refugee camp...

[Light]

The refugee base, away from the hangar and further inside the base was a large building that had once been something else. Guards were posted around it, the windows darkened and the people kept close to it if they went outside.

[CrimsonMoon]

He watches, his smile slowly fading... It was like a prison camp, more like...

[Light]

"Hey, you're the kid from yesterday!" A large mech's speakers blare from one of the guards posted, the pilot speaking... Carter from the exuberance in the tone.
