Oh.

[Toriel thought of asking if they were sure, hoping for some kind of brighter side or something, but. She gets the feeling Legion wouldn't have said so if they weren't completely certain already.

And besides- Wonderland seems to enjoy doing this. It'd only be fitting that she loses two of the most important people in her life one right after the other.

...She doesn't know what else to say, really. Nothing seems adequate for this.]

(At first, there are no words, just a bunch of strange chattering noises.

But then:)

I am sorry.

It is still possible she may return.

Edited 2018-02-22 22:03 (UTC)

You fuckin' serious?!

[ No. Not now, not when he feels like he finally finds someone he can follow the lead of. ]

...Like how many percent sure 're you?

[ No no no no, not now, hold up... they were just getting together to build up a defensive team... and he was looking forward to learning a lot under her... It's all his selfish wants, but he can't help feeling them. He doesn't even know if it's better for her to return home or not. Some people have it worse back home.

He's yet to notice the unusual in Legion, being incredibly shocked himself. ]

Yes.

(They chatter.)

Her possessions remain in her room, so it is possible she may return. Currently, however, she is not located within Wonderland.

(They chatter.)

That so...

[ Has that happened before? Arisato mentioned about returning home and not remembering anything when he returned here. Would Commander Sephard forget all about them too? His eyes swim, his gaped mouth slowly close. There's still hope, with her belongings still being here. Maybe she went for a mission, or something... shit, could it be the Queens?

He's about to open up his mouth to throw a possibility when he finally notices the chattering noises coming from Legion. ]

...Oi, you aight?

...All systems ...functional.

(Yes Legion, you are physically fine. That's not what he was asking.)

Shepard-Commander saved us.

(They're not really the best at this emotions thing, okay?)

[ ...Okay something's clearly weird with Legion, they're not making sense. ]

Where are ya now? I'm goin' there.

We are located on the fifth floor, room 109.

[ Mondo'll be there in a bit, it doesn't take him long since he just needs to go down three flight of stairs.

Knock-knock. ]

Legion? 's Mondo.

That would be nice, wouldn't it.

[It's said with the tone of someone who absolutely, 100% does not believe it is going to be a thing.

Just a nice little thought. Not something that could actually happen. Too good to be true.]

Acknowledged.

(It comes from somewhere inside the room, followed by footsteps. Legion opens the door to reveal... okay that's a pretty fucking sweet pad. It looks like the insides of a Geth ship, all industrial and full of space age metal and polymers and glowy shit. The floor has three levels. There's the main floor which has what appears to be some kind of workbench, what is probably some kind of future terminal, their gun rack, and what is pretty unmistakably just a few boxes of emergency supplies. In an out of the way corner there's a raised platform with a small and relatively barebones bed on it, why it's there isn't entirely clear since a robot like Legion probably doesn't need to sleep. The biggest and best part of the room, however, is a lower section in the middle, which seems to be devoted entirely to gaming. There's a sleek shiny couch sitting in front of an absolutely massive flatscreen and multiple gaming consoles.)

Greetings.

(For someone living in such an awesome area, Legion doesn't seem to be in a hugely awesome mood. Admittedly, it's hard to tell with them, but they're definitely flaring their headflaps a lot more than usual.)

What was she working on when she disappeared?

[ Because she was working on unfucking this place, last he heard, and it might be a sign she got too close to finding out something. ]

Yes.

(Legion just doesn't feel up to arguing in favor of positivity, if they even pick up on her tone.)

She left Wonderland?

[Her and Legion...they both come from the same universe, yes. They can't even imagine how it must feel to lose someone that came from their own world like this.]

...my condolences, Legion. Is...she truly gone? Is her room completely blank?

[They're a little afraid of hearing the answer.]

Yes.

(Oh hey as a fellow robot, Turing might understand that those repetitive chattering noises probably aren't a good sign.)

Negative. It is possible she may return. However, this is not guaranteed.

(It's more than just her coming from the same world though. Lets be honest, there's a bunch of people from Legion's universe that if they never saw again they just straight up would not give a fuck.)

Uncertain. It is likely she was working on organizing the guard.

[ There's a little intake of breath. ]

Oh no. [ Shepard has always been a friend to her, and so has Legion, who must be suffering, now. ] ... Are her things still here in the mansion?

Yes. It is possible she may return.

(She probably knows them well enough to tell this isn't caelming them down. There's way to much chattering and headflaep movement going on.)

...Would it be alright if I asked... I was curious before, but I suppose it never really came up. I do not think you have told me, and... I suppose now seems as good a time as any.

How did you know Miss Shepard?

[Toriel just... she doesn't know. Doesn't want to just end the conversation and be alone just yet. Wants to hear more about Jane. Is just kind of curious.]

Affirmative.

(A pause. Their frantic and continuous movements settle a bit.)

Has Shepard Commander informed you of the war with the Old Machines?

(Might as well establish what she knows. It will make explaining easier.)

Edited 2018-02-23 22:09 (UTC)

No. We never really... talked about wars or her work as a soldier terribly often. It is not really a topic that I appreciate hearing about. The most I have heard is about her conflicts against the Reapers.

[Not so many shades of grey to worry about, when the enemy is an incomprehensible force of building sized ships bent on exterminating all life.]

"Reapers" is an organic term, arising from superstition. We understand this: they are immense, ancient, powerful, and beyond comprehension. However, Old Machines remains a more accurate term.

(And also Legion just doesn't want to speak of them in terms that imply any sort of respect or fear of them.)

[ There's a lot to see here. On other times, he'd probably be yelling out his surprise and excitement at how sick this whole place look, but right now he can only dart his eyes from one space to another. It's hard to get amped about it when all these worries are filling up his head ー both about Commander Shepard and Legion. He's amazed all the same though, just not in the way he usually would. He'd never think about giving his own room extra floors. Ok that's a lie, he thought about it after going to the Damian's cave, but y'know. ]

Dude, you look hella weird. Somethin' the matter?

[ If his texts are any indication, he's definitely not a tech-savvy person, but he's built a motorcycle from scratch, surely he can screw some bolts or shit. Either way, he's here to see if there's anything that he can do. Weird as it can be, he does feel some kind of bond with Legion after them fighting off zombies together. Him months ago would probably tell the current him that he's crazy. ]

[ A guard? And she didn't ask him? Yeah, they were gonna have a Talk if he ever saw her again. ]

And you don't find that suspicious.

...Clarify.
