On being genderbent for the sake of joining Veloxia

[banichan]

 How could you? 

Why did you do this to me? You haven't even fully canon-reviewed in months.

Muns shouldn't make split-second decisions like this.

[bioalchemic]

Tell me about it.

[Everyone is unamused. Everyone.]

[banichan]

This is your mun's fault. She needs to quit being a yes man. Look who suffers!

[ She is so done with all of this. So. Done. ]

[bioalchemic]

Hey, I'm just the messenger! [Don't take it out on her, she's got enough problems being the new kid in the headspace.]

[She shrugs.]

Well... it could be worse?

[You gotta look on the bright side, right? Right...?]

[banichan]

[ Sidelong glance at Sirius, the only other active member of headspace. She narrows her eyes a fraction. ]

Yes, I suppose it could be worse.

[ At least she doesn't have a boyfriend who was canon updated into thinking she betrayed their best friends. ]

[bioalchemic]

[Oof that's rough, buddy. The Black Jacks send Sirius their condolences.]

Yeah, at least where we're going doesn't sound terrible. I don't like leaving my brother by his lonesome though.

[Rochelle dear he's 16 not a toddler he'll be fine.]

I'm sure it'll work out. [Or she'll make it work out. What could go wrong?]

[banichan]

My parents' research might come in handy, so there's always that. [ That is, she might be useful enough to be considered important. What a narcissist. ]

I just don't want to leave everyone behind. There are still things I haven't resolved back home.

[bioalchemic]

[OH well that hits a ping or five-]

Research? What do your parents do?

[Is it alchemy sAY IT'S ALCHEMY]

[banichan]

Did. They were alchemists roboticists. [ Nope sorry Roch no dice ]

[bioalchemic]

Oh. I'm sorry.

[Can anyone's parents not be dead in animu?? Good lord is it like a rule or something.]

[SO CLOSE but so far.]

Roboticists? [That's a new word.] Like... automail?

[banichan]

They ran a lab devoted to devolping robotics- robots, and the systems required to run them.

Automail? What's automail?

[bioalchemic]

[Okay now you've really lost her.]

What the hell is a robot...?

[Refrigerated trucks are Big News in her world and who knows if science fiction literature is even a thing.]

They're prosthetics, made out of metal. They've become more common since the Ishbal war.

1/2

[banichan]

[ She sighs. Really Bea, mun-tan wasn't kidding, other times and worlds really are a thing. ]

Machines that can run partially or fully on their own. They're often made to look like people.

2/2

[banichan]

[ She blinks a little. Wow, that actually sounds kinda... ]

That sounds right up my parents' alley, actually. They were looking to use robotics to help mankind.

[bioalchemic]

Whoa, that sounds amazing! I've never heard of anything that advanced!

[Science can do so many awesome things kasjdh]

[Speaking of which...]

Oh, are you from the other side of the Gate?

[ahahaha context what is that.]

[lifes_expensive]

Stop complaining.

[Impeccable bed-side manners, wouldn't you say?]

[banichan]

Excuse me?

[ Ohhhhhhh he-yull naw. ]

[lifes_expensive]

You heard me.

[Deaf and whiny? Just what she needs this week, on top of being sent to lesbian-land again. :l]

You'll get nowhere fast acting like a child.

[banichan]

[ Lesbian Land? Welcome to Tiger & Bunny's niche yuri fandom. ]

I'm merely expressing my annoyance at my mun. I see reason better than she does anyway.

[lifes_expensive]

And what makes you so much smarter than her?

[Not that Black Jack doesn't think that her own mun isn't a screaming idiot of a fangirl, but still.]

[banichan]

I'm older than her, for one thing. And even she admits she's more changeable.

[ Not having any of yo shit, Kuroi. Come at her brosis. ]

[lifes_expensive]

Are you so naive that you think "age" means "wisdom"?

[You really are a kid, aren't you?]

I can tell you're the kind of girl who thinks change is bad, even if staying stagnate is what brings down empires.

[Don't let her hear you call her that aloud. You might actually die.]

[banichan]

I wasn't saying anything like that. I've lived more and experienced more. I've done more with my life. [ Ouch. Never say the mun takes themselves too seriously. ]

That's not who I am at all. What gives you the right to talk to me like this? Do you talk to everyone like this?

[ What a bothersome lady.. ]

[lifes_expensive]

If you say so.

[Some kids have experienced more than some adults ever will. DON'T BE SO QUICK TO JUDGE YO MUN]

Yes.

[As in yes, you're a kid, and yes, she does talk to everyone like this.]
