Aurora Calloway BOT 3/6/2024 1:24 AM
Aurora stared out the carriage at the passing landscape and watched the way the wilderness was gradually darkening, the tree’s were thinning and the world was transforming before her. They were getting closer now to the border between their lands, traversable by foot easily but the way of life was so different, they may as well have been completely different worlds. They were heading towards the ruins now, concrete structures empty and crumbling in no-mans land before the city limits. Though city was perhaps an understatement when it came to Nexus. The location was so large, it would take several days for someone to travel from one end to the other within Nexus, even with their high speed vehicles and alternative methods of transport. The woman’s blue gaze turned, glancing at the weathered face of her father at her side. He was exhausted and sleeping, head gently bumping against the edge of the carriage with the rock from the horses pulling them along up front. They had been travelling for around 2 weeks at this point from their own home, a caravan traversing the wilderness of only 3 carriages. There was the one they were in currently, the one her mother and the doctors were inhabiting, and one of the clans hunters who came along to ensure their safety when it came to wildlife. The hunters caravan would soon be leaving them though, and they were due to disembark from the horses once they hit the city limits onto something called a train. Carefully, Aurora stood from her seat, setting her feet apart around a metre to balance herself before she opened the window. Planting her hand on the edge she leaned forwards, feeling the cooling breeze of the air pushing her hair back. Leaning up and looking ahead, she could see the change of horizon ahead. It was no longer the smooth curve of the earth she was used to seeing in the distance, but instead, large structures rose from the ground to fill the sky. Even from the distance they were at, she could see the flash of vibra
1:24 AM
nt, neon lights breaking through the permanent fog that seemed to encase the city. Despite her 2 decades on earth, she had never once caught a glimpse of Nexus. Travel towards the city had always been forbidden, and apart from her father, no one was permitted to communicate with any of the denizens of the city. Everything she knew was from stories passed down from older generations. Rumours were, the people of Nexus were these days more robotic than human and despite the nerves, Aurora was excited to see how that looked like. Settling back into her seat, she clasped her hands in front of her, biting her lip nervously. It was all real now, they would soon arrive in Nexus and her knowledge of the world was about to to be expanded dramatically. Of course, the reason for the visit, her mothers mysterious sickness, was at the forefront of her mind - but that didn’t mean she wasn’t also looking forward to exploring some of the city too. Curling into her own corner of ther carriage, she reached for the nearby blanket, hand sewn by her maternal grandmother as a child with stars and flowers decorating every inch, along with her name in a cursive scrawl in the lower corner. Pulling it up over her shoulders she tried to settle in for a little more sleep, they still had a few hours ahead of them at least, and the sky was getting darker. People said that the sunlight barely penetrated through the fog into the city now, so this was likely the last of the light she was going to see for a while. The loud noise and groan of engines awoke Aurora a few hours later as they came to a stop. The horses whinnied and jolted nervously from the large machines in front of them. Blinking open her eyes, she glanced to the window. It was pitch black, bar the faint dance of bright blue and pink lights occasionally flashing somewhere ahead. Her father was already awake, straightening his outfit before the door alongside him was pulled open by the carriage driver.
1:24 AM
After he was helped to disembark, Aurora moved forwards to take the hand of the man, carefully stepping out before she would smooth her own attire. The pastel blue dress she wore was floor length but not particularly remarkable, simple cut with a square neckline. Everything back home was hand made, and it was something she had made herself during her lessons. Whilst it wasn’t the flashy kind of attire a princess would probably normally wear, it was comfortable, certainly for travelling. The bottom of the dress though was darker, the dust of the dirty ground having embedded itself into the fabric and despite her washing it regularly during the trip, it seemed to have become permanent. The first thing she would note, other than the spreading darkness and large vehicle ahead of them, balanced on metal tracks, was the cold. It was so much colder here than back home, and her dress was not providing enough resistance to it. Turning back to her carriage she reached in, grabbing the blanket once more and pulling it out to swing around her shoulders, whilst the driver now set about offloading the large leather trunks that contained the rest of their stuff. They had packed enough for a few weeks, mainly to cover their travelling but also for in the city as they had no idea how long they would be staying. All the items were gradually moved, one by one, into one of the large open containers on the track, furthest from the roaring beast at the front. Behind them, her mother was being moved too, into a slightly different carriage up ahead, by 4 of the hunters as she was currently unconscious within the bed. Her doctors rushed behind, carefully checking her every few seconds for her breathing, heart rate, and temperature. It had been several months since her mother had been awake, and they had exhausted all medical knowledge of the clans elders weeks ago. This was the last resort…. Following quietly, Aurora moved after her father as he spoke with a man dressed in a dark, well
1:24 AM
fitted suit and dark glasses. Given the fact it was now the dead of night - or seemed to be, Aurora wondered just how the guy was able to see out of them. He seemed to be given instruction, though she wasn’t paying that much attention, before he pointed them to the carriage alongside where her mother was now being put. They trapsed through the dusty ground and climbed up inside. The inside of the train carriage was nothing like she had expected - it was clean, sleek lines, a soft music humming through though she couldn’t identify anyone with instruments. Large, cushioned couches were along one wall, while a sleek bar decorated the other side and various bottles and concoctions were behind. Several men were inside the carriage as they stepped in, the one in front clasping his hands in front of him and waiting for them to approach before he would speak. ”Good Evening your highness, I’m happy to see you’ve arrived safely. I am Ben Asai, captain of the Nexus guard and will be accompanying you for your journey into the city. Alongside me we have Elijah Sato, Iris Nova and Cassian Nova. The Nova twins have been assigned to be your personal guards during your stay within Nexus, and Sato for your daughter, as I’m sure she will appreciate some freedom once we arrive.” As the man spoke, there was a click and a lock of the doors. A high pitched squeal sounded from ahead of them, no doubt from the large machine at the front, before a slight rock indicated they had started to move off. Aurora looked to the window, though the expanding darkness didn’t allow her to really determine with what speed they were moving. “You should know, if you choose to leave the government building at any point, the political feeling within the city towards your kind is… not positive. I would advise you to change into attire we have provided for you, and do not leave without your guard at any point. We will be moving to full speed soon, so you’ll probably want to take seat…”

Elijah's day had started earlier than normal. he got up, went to the gym, got a shower and then got dressed in a nice suit. he did his hair before he got a call. "we will meet at the car park." his boss says and elijiah just syas ok and then hangs up. he sighs as he moves out of his small apartment he most likely wouldnt be back for a while. Elijiah sighs as he gets on his motorbike. his body seems to clip into the bike as he slips on a helmet and moves to the company car park. he would get off and meet up with the twins before they all got into the car and was off towards the meeting place at the edge of the city. elijiah and the twins got out and waited as they saw the carriage. elijiah stomps out a smoke as he sighs. the twins giggle "i wonder what they are like.." one of them says before they all stand tall as they were now infront of clients. in the car elijiah just sits there with his glasses on. his eyes were covered but he could see perfectly fine. his eyes were cybernectic and he didnt need to have his glasses off. he scans the people around him as he sits there. his fingers tapping his knee. he needed a smoke..he takes a deep breath as he focuses on the princess and takes a scan of her. he made sure that her heart rate was good. even though she wouldnt be able to see fully, she would see his left hand was robotic. his right leg was also robotic. he had cybernetic running up his spin and up his right ear. if the princess doesnt sit and falls he would catch her and sit her down "i would stay sitting." he says. his voice was even and sharpe

Aurora had hardly heard the directive to take a seat as she watched the darkness outside. There was a slight hum running through the carriage which indicated the speed increasing, although hardly anything could be felt inside. Turning away from her father and the others as they spoke she would step towards the window, turning her head as she spotted her own reflection in the darkness. Of course, where they lived, the nights got dark… extremely dark without any form of city lights… but it was different, seeing her reflection echoed back to her so clearly thanks to the lighting within the carriage, almost like a mirror made of the darkest metal… A loud shrill sound rushed through the carriage before the lights flickered briefly as power got redirected to the engine. Then there was the jolt as the train shifted to high speed, everything in the carriage rattling and crashing as it was shifted towards the far end. Aurora hadn’t realised until that moment that the majority of the carriages passengers had already moved to take their seats other than her, and a loud shriek came from her as she was sent flying towards the door. Fortunately though, the one other individual still on their feet at that moment had managed to grab onto her arm and stop her before she had caused too much damage to herself. The grasp on her arm though seemed firmer than usual and Aurora found herself spinning to look, seeing the glint of metal in the fingers wrapped around her. Once she was back firmly to her feet she moved to sit in the nearest spot a little coyly - fortunately, her father was in too indepth a conversation with the man who had greeted them initially to worry too much about his daughter and hadn’t noticed the lapse in concentration or her fall. Her eyes came back to Elijah, peering at him curiously a moment before she spoke, her voice soft and quiet, barely audible over the hum of the carriage. “Thank you…” Peering the man over now she took in his hand a little more - only th

e left it seemed, the right side seemed pretty much normal. Watching the way he moved she could just about ascertain there may be something odd in his leg or his foot too - unless everyone in the city walked slightly asymmetrically. “I’m Aurora.” She would introduce herself politely, it was only right after all, before launching into what could potentially be deemed a rather rude and personal question. “What are you?” @Blue Beetle

he sits next to her as he taps his knee again. he really needed a smoke. he looks over the car as they move faster. they would be coming into the city any moment. he looks at the princess. his eyes almost seeming to glow. he takes a deep breath and watches her. he coudl see her looking at his hand...sliver with glowing tubes...then to his foot..he wore a shoe but she could see a small amount of sliver stickig out from his pant. his fake leg went up almost to his hip. he listens to her. his ears able to pick up her faint voice...then her question. the twins look at him from across the way as he shakes his head slightly before saying... "i am a human..not a robot. i have cybornetics due to my service in the war.." he says as he pulls up his sleeve. he would be around her alot so she needed to be ok with his sliver parts. he moves his fingers as they make a soft clink noise. "also. dont go around asking people that. most wont be as kind as i am..." he was only kind because he was going to be paid so much for this job he would be able to finally leave this city. "i would also ask someone's name before you ask them what they are.." he grabs a ciggrette and just puts it in his mouth. he doesnt light. he just plays with it. that helps alittle

The speed of the carriage caused Aurora to sway slightly side to side in her seat as she watched Elijah at her side, listening to him as he rolled up his sleeve to show more of the arm. Aurora had some base knowledge of biology from the clan healers back home, as they saw it as imperative that everyone knew enough first aid and medicine for use in an emergency if out in the wilds, and was pretty certain than beneath her skin wasn't metal and shiny tubes. Besides, the lights would show through right? As if curiously testing her theory she would move her arm to place it next to his, comparing the differences and opening and closing her her hand to flex the muscles. No sign of lights or creaking metal in her. But he claimed to be human. These must be the cybernetics he was referencing. As they talked the carriage door nearest Aurora slid open and a smaller framed woman moved quietly into the carriage. Silently she moved to the bar cart, pouring out several glasses of water which she transferred onto a large metal tray, before beginning to make her way round the room, offering the drinks to everyone in attendance.. "Well, I didn't know if Robots had names and maybe if they didn't, asking for one would make them sad." Aurora responded matter of factly as she peered up to Elijahs face now, just noticing the lights in his eyes and raising a brow as curiosity took over again. "How much do you turn to metal before you're officially classed as a robot? Oh... I mean... what is your name?" She laughed awkwardly as she had skipped the important question once again, turning sheepishly towards the woman as she stopped silently next to them, two glasses remaining. Reaching out. Aurora takes a glass before taking a sip, her face contorting instantly at the water in disgust. "Oh... why does your water taste funny here?" @Blue Beetle

he watches her as she holds her own smaller hand to his. he smiles softly before saying "my name is eljiah..and as long as you have.." he points to her heart and mind. "your heart and mind you are not a robot." he sits back but doesn that a drink. he looks at her as she asks about the water. "our water lacks alot of the good things in them...so we have factoies that make the water. that is why.." he says as she looks around. they would pull out of the tunnel. she would be able to look out and see the city. the large tower bulidings that seemed to reach the stars. the roads that had the cars moivng from one sector to the other. he looks at the twin and his eyes seemed to flicker as he reaches down and grabs something from his waist. they were about to enter a pretty bad sector. "princess i would like you to stay away from the windows." he says. his hand fiddles with a gun. this was a known area that car jackings happen. eljiah holds his hand to her back and moves her away from the window. his eyes scanning the window over and over. he was watching everything. his eyes able to see the smallest detail even at the speed that they were moving at. his gun that he had was a dark color. it glowed a similar glow to his arm and eyes. his fingers tap the gun softly as he watches the outside. the twins watching the other windows

As Elijah explained that their water wasn't fresh and instead factory produced, Aurora screwed her face up some more, reaching to place the glass on the table nearby as she didn't want to drink any more. Unfortunately, she was well aware they were likely staying for quite a while so she was going to have to accept the taste of the water sooner or later to not dehydrate. While she was mulling over that prospect, she was suddenly aware of their carriage lighting up brightly with multiple colours. Looking up, Aurora span in her seat to immediately look out the window, mouth agape in awe at the sudden, huge expanse of buildings and neon lights. Shifting onto her knees she leaned to press her nose to the glass, allowing her to try and see just how high the buildings went, but she still couldn't see the tops. She was completely unaware of the guards all taking up their positions with their weapons at the ready, and instead was watching a vehicle going flying down a nearby street to the tracks, lights flashing atop as it went. She had never seen such a spectacle before and it was almost hard to comprehend. Elijahs voice urging her away from the window was mostly ignored, until a deeper, gruff "Aurora!" echoed over from her father who had moved to a more central seat. Glancing away she would look back, seeing the stern glare she was getting and she quickly slinked away from the glass, moving to sit next to her father like a little mouse, head dipped ashamed from the scorned look she was getting. Once she was sat, she cupped her hands lightly together in her lap and peered around at the guards now, noting their positions. "What... what's going on?" She asked lightly, to any of them whom may want to answer. The lights in their carriage were being dimmed now, helping to mask them from the outside world as they passed by.

he looks at her as she sits down. his eyes flicker as he moves to look back out of the windows. he didnt want to dash her joyful look as she had when she was looking out the windows but this area...it wasnt good. he watches the window before speaking "this area is known for car jackings. we just want you all to be safe princess...once we get out of this sector you can look out the window again.." his voice calm as he watches. the twins doing the same. with the dimmed lights she would be able to see his leg and arm glowing dimmly. as well as his eyes. he was proccessing more infomation that any normal human could. but it was making him crave a cirgette.. they go into a tunnel and he sighs "clear." he would sit back down and the lights would come up again before he slips his gun away. his finger clicking slightly. "we will be coming into the high sector in a few moments then we will be at the place you will be staying." he says as he took a drink and downs it. his body was tense as he watches the tunnel. he was still on high alert. for what no one really knew. however he knew that sometimes gangs follow these types of cars into the tunnels and hit them there...he knows this because he has done it. flashbacks of his time doing these horrible things flash before his leg starts to move. after a couple of minesutes the car pulls out and up from the tunnel and they start to head to the building that the royal family would be staying

Aurora sat quietly, listening to Elijah’s explanation as to why they had to move away from the window. It still didn’t really clear anything up for her - she wasn’t familiar with the term car jackings and they didn’t have all that much violence or crime within their clans - everyone relied on each other back home, no one was out just for themselves. Confused, Aurora glanced towards her father who shook his head at her. ”I told you before, the city is a dangerous place. You will do as your told while you’re here - no exceptions” Gulping, Aurora nodded her head slowly, dipping her gaze back to her hands. Out the corner of her eye she could see a faint glow coming from Elijah and she furrowed her brow again, thinking back to the conversation on what the difference was between being Human and being a Robot. Now wasn’t the time to ask further though as she instead pulled the blanket she had brought with her around her shoulders again, curling up with her head on her fathers shoulder. Suddenly, all the lights outside went as the train thundered into the next tunnel. The noise was louder now from the vehicle as it shot through and she squinted, until the lights within the cabin came back to full brightness. Elijah confirming that they were past the danger seemed to make the rest of the guards ease a little, though no one returned to their previous seats it seemed. The comment that they would soon be arriving made Aurora nod her head quietly, but she was aimlessly playing with the loose strands on the edge of her blanket instead. ”I’ll be staying with your mother when we arrive. You should go with Mr Sato to see where you’re staying, get yourself cleaned up and get some rest.” Aurora’s fathers gaze turned towards Elijah, narrowing his eyes as he looked at him for a moment, before continuing, addressing him directly. *”I’m sure you appreciate the trust I am putting in you to protect my daughter. No harm should come to her while she is in your charge and if it do
11:21 AM
es, you will be held personally responsible.”* His voice was stern and strict as he spoke. The city lights suddenly rushed back into view outside once again, brighter now, and it became clear they were beginning to slow down, a loud squeal outside as the brakes locked in to bring the train to a sliding stop within the station. The building outside was noticeably brighter than those they had passed earlier, a gloss white across the walls and lights that almost mimicked natural sunlight. Aurora’s heart started racing again now they were about to enter the city itself, and she carefully rose up to her feet, clinging her blanket to her chest as she waited for them to be guided off.

he looks at the father and takes a deep breath "yes sir. i undersand fully." he says softly as they pull into the station. the garuds got off and elijah would help aurora get off the train. they were at the entrance of the hotel and hospital. "welcome to Nexus." he says as they walk into the area. eljiah would says "princess please follow me. i will show you to your room and area that you will be staying." he says softly as he takes a deep breath moves to the elevator. the two twin, king and queen, and then the boss would head up in a differnt elevator. eljiah holds the door for her as they get intside and he pressed the number 110. he looks at her as he sighs "i will make sure you can see the city alittle bit. but we will have to be safe about it.." he says as he smiles. he didnt want her to feel trapped. he knew that feeling too well. once they got onto the floor he would walk to a end door and moves to open it. he looks inside before holding the door open. "your bags will be up soon. please look around. if there is anything you need let me know." he says softly as he moves to stand by the couch. she woudl be able to see his two guns on his hips, his taller frame and his facial robotics. "if there is anything you want to ask you are more than welcome too. i am here to serve you princess.." Eljiah knew that she might have questions and he wanted to make sure she trusted him. he takes off his outer jacket so she would be able to see his arm. he looks at her "anything you want to ask you can my lady. i wont hide my..robotic parts.."

As Elijah lead the way, Aurora briefly reached to her father, taking his hand with a soft squeeze and a smile before she too would move to follow as they disembarked the train, her father heading instead back further through the carriages to find the medical bay where they had loaded her mother into. Aurora was surprised to find that they had pulled up to a platform that was in line with the steps of the train, meaning she was fortunate not to have to try and jump down the same distance they had chambered up to board. The station itself was quiet, apart from a few armed guards stationed and patrolling silently, observing the passengers of the train as they departed. Elijah was already heading off in the direction of an exit and Aurora had to skip a little to catch him up, looking all around as he welcomed her to the city. It was world's away from what she was used to, and she wondered if he realised that… As the doors to the elevator opened Aurora stared at him confused, before stepping into the enclosed space slowly and looking around. “This is my roo~” She started to query as the doors closed behind her, but she was cut off as the elevator suddenly shifted and started moving. Yelping a little, her automatic reaction was to reach for a grab hold of the bar running around the edge of the elevator, holding it tightly and watching Elijah a little wide eyed, though he seemed relaxed enough with the situation. “Have you ever been to the Enclave?” She asked curiously, wondering if he'd ever seen her home. As far as she was aware, there had been no city visitors out to the Enclave for several hundred years, and even when her father had reached out for help, they were insistent that it was them who would travel to Nexus, not the other way around. An audible ding pronounced the stopping of the moving room and Aurora tilted her her to peer out into the corridor as the doors slid open on their own. “And… you don't have to call me Princess. My title is only for use du
12:49 PM
ring formal occasions… you can call me Rory.” She commented quietly as she moved to follow him through another door. The room beyond was considerably larger than where they had come from - and while she had felt the elevator far too small to be a room for her alone, this suite was quite the opposite and far too large. She would stop, standing awkwardly near the door as she looked around the space, unclear on which direction she should head in first. It seemed that Elijah however had already moved to make himself comfortable, as she caught glimpse of him by the couch as he removed his outer jacket. The sudden visibility of his arm brought a faint blush to her cheeks and she would quickly look away, taking a few steps further into the room as she heard his comment. “Oh… uhm… OK…” She muttered awkwardly, looking back to him and the arm. It wasn't hard to see she was fascinated by the contraption and the visible, moving parts thar shifted every time he did - they captivated her in silence to staring at them before she realised she was probably being rude. “Is there… somewhere I could clean up?” She asked finally, pulling her gaze from his arm to his facial features with a slight apologetic smile.

"and i ahve not been to your home. i would love to visit" he sat on the couch and moves to just wait for her to return. while she was in the bathroom, her bags got bought in and eljiah decided to look around the apartment. it was bigger than his whole apartment. he takes a deep breath. till this job was done he got to live the high life..the apartment had a main bedroom and bathroom for auroa, the living room, a smaller bathroom but it was a half bathroom, and the kichen with a small dinning room. he sigsh as he rubs his eyes. he would have to find a different way to shower..he didnt want to take her shower..that just felt...too close. he moves to sit back down and looks at her once she is back "come sit. i want to talk about what is going to happen from this day till you leave." he would watch her. "you will be under my watch all day. everyday. you wont leave my side. if you want to see the city i can take you around but you stay near me. at all time." he tenses his arm and watches her "i have robitic arm and leg. yuo dont have to worry i wont hurt you or anything. i have control over my arm and leg. i dont want you to be uncomfortable with them.." he looks at her and his eyes glow slightly as he gets a message "you mother is being taken care of. at any time you want to see her i can take you up.." he smiles softly "do you have anything you want to talk about miss.."

Aurora stood awkwardly, rubbing her arm and reluctant to move too much further into the suite while Elijah explained the place to her. It was nothing like she had ever experienced before, that was for sure. Back home, their properties were built mostly of wooden huts and tents and it was a rare occurrence to have more than one room - let alone more than one room that was for yourself alone. Of course, this suite wasn’t for herself alone as Elijah indicated he too would be residing there during her visit - yet there was only one bedroom. Aurora turned her gaze to the couch he spoke of, furrowing a brow a moment as she took in the size of it. Of course, it too was much grander than she was used to, but she doubted it was to the level that Elijah probably had at his own property. “Will… will you be ok on that? I don’t mind staying out here… This is… all too much” She commented lightly, waving her hand around to gesture at the apartment. It was quite overwhelming for her. Giving a small sigh she would however start heading inside more, still afraid to touch anything. After a moment though she retires through to the back room that he had gestured to as the main bedroom. The room itself was extremely clean and modern, and the bed took up much more space than she could imagine anyone needing. Frowning at it she walked around slowly, before noticing a folded set of black clothes on the bed. Picking them up, she checked out the outfit that had been laid out for her already, feeling across the fabric. It felt unnatural, plastic-y with some elastic to it. Much different to her current outfit. Putting it back down she headed behind her through the door to the bathroom, where she would undress and tackle the shower. It had taken her a good few minutes to get the shower going, and initially the heat of the water had shocked her. After some playing with the dials though she had managed to settle into a somewhat cool rain-like shower, enjoying how similar it felt to being out
11:40 AM
in the storms back home. It was a soothing reminder of her normal life and brought her a few minutes of peace. She washed her hair and body with the strong, fruit-scented lotions that decorated the bathroom before stepping out and grabbing for the soft, fluffy towel that hung nearby. Wrapping it around herself she headed back into the bedroom. The clothes were still there, exactly where she had left them and she considered them a moment more before reaching for them. Getting into the outfit, the tight pants and black nylon jacket was uncomfortable - the way it clinged to her body and curves made her feel exposed. Pinching and pulling, she tried to get it more comfortable, but it didn’t help. It wasn’t much unlike the outfits she had seen on the others though, so it was probably the fashion of the city… surely no one would be bothered to stare at her then as she blended in. Her pale hair fell wet around her shoulders, faint waves and curls forming naturally as she left it to air dry. Pushing it back from her face she took a deep breath before heading back into the front room, seeing Elijah sat comfortable on the couch where she had left him previously. It was like he had a sixth sense though to her approach, as before she had a chance to speak he had already registered her return to the room and beckoned her over. Rubbing her arm awkwardly she moved round to take a seat next to him on the couch, avoiding his gaze as she looked over the rest of the furnishings in the room, and the coffee table directly in front of her. She listened as Elijah explained that she wasn’t to leave his side, nodding quietly. It wasn’t until he mentioned his arm and leg again she would glance his way, peering at his arm again. Only once he was finished she would speak again. “Is your apartment like this? It’s… a lot bigger than I’m used to. I thought I’d be staying with my father too…” .

She rubbed her arm awkwardly a moment, before pausing as another question occurred to her. “Do they hurt? Your… arm and leg? Can you feel anything?”

"my apartment isnt this big. it is half of wha the bedroom is. your father wanted you to have your own space so he is able to hold meetings. you are safe here.." he watches her and gulps softly. "um...i cant feel anything now..but for a long time there was pain..i got them after i..i was in a accident.." he holds out his arm for her to see. "you can touch. it wont hurt." his arm was a dark sliver. there were different lights and colors that had their own purpose. "it is common for people here to have some kind of cybernectices.." he taps his eyes "i have some in my eyes. i am able to dectect body heat though walls." he smiles "dont worry i can turn it off." he smiles trying to help her relax. "do you want food? or a drink? i can have anyhting brought up for you.." he didnt know if she was ready to go into the city...maybe tomorrow after she had time to rest. "i will get some food for you princess.." he stands and walks over to a phone in the wall and calls someone. he orders alot of different types of food because he really didnt know what she wanted. he also got water and other sweet drinks for her. he moves back to the couch and says "do you want to watch tv? he hands her a romate and shows her how to use it "there is news, cartoons, and other shows. whatever you wanna watch."
