[ no. ]

Sounds like your partner prefers something a lot quieter than whatever's actually out there. But I've heard the rest of the biomes really aren't that bad either.

[ he's spent most of his time here today. ]

[homotron3000]

[you HATE me]

Oh, no, that's not an issue. They just love BL the most.

[EASILY SAYS THIS]

[unapollogetic]

[ if i have to live so do you.

...........sasaki. ]

Right. [ the youth these days... ] There's probably more in the library that isn't about weird heat stuff if you're really serious about it.

[homotron3000]

[YOU DON'T HAVE TO LIVE? NEITHER OF US HAVE TO LIVE]

Oh, yeah, I saw some titles I recognize already. I just picked this one up since I'd never heard of it.

[unapollogetic]

[ takes sasaki out then goodbye. ]

Some things are probably better left unread. But it does make you wonder where the library pulled them from in the first place. There's a lot of stuff here I actually don't recognize at all.

[homotron3000]

[Yaaaaaay]

But you can't find out what you like if you don't try new stuff. [BE MORE OPEN-MINDED.

But he nods, looking over the shelves too.] It feels like that for everything here. I've never seen those sorts of robots they've got out there.

[unapollogetic]

I'm pretty comfortable with what I like, I think. [ but that is not important right now, he's more concerned about the other part. ]

I've never seen anything like that either. I think they have some robots at the space center in town but nothing like these guys. [ he is not from aa5... ] I'm starting to wonder if they're recording us though.

[homotron3000]

[Sasaki is too polite to call Apollo boring, but he kind of thinks Apollo is boring.]

What? Why?

[unapollogetic]

[ he's right, apollo is boring but that's because he is very private around strangers. ]

Monitoring our behavior before introducing themselves. I can't think of why else there'd be so many of them and so few other people.

[homotron3000]

[YEAH BUT HE DOESN'T NEED TO SOUND LIKE A TEACHER]

So many--oh, the robots. [Frowns.] That's creepy.

[unapollogetic]

Yeah. I don't want that to be the case, but... it's been days.

[homotron3000]

Mm. [...] I tried to leave, but I couldn't find my way out of the city.

[Which he hates a lot thanks. This place just gets worse and worse.]

[unapollogetic]

[ that's disconcerting. ]

What do you mean you couldn't find your way out? It's not that big, is it?

[homotron3000]

I didn't think so. But I tried walking out, since the train hasn't come back, and... no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get out. I just wound up back here eventually.

[unapollogetic]

[ ... something wants to keep us here. But why? ]

Maybe that'll change in a few days. Like how the trains came back and we were able to visit the biomes after the weekend. [ even when he says it he doesn't sound so sure. ]

[homotron3000]

Yeah, maybe. [He sighs.] Or maybe the phones will start working.

[So they could at least, like. Tell people where they are? Something.]

[unapollogetic]

Yeah. If there were phones for sale, it wouldn't make sense why there wouldn't be a network. It might be an outage somewhere they're trying to fix.

[ this is such a faint hope, but he can at least pretend to be vaguely optimistic about this for sasaki's sake. ]

[homotron3000]

I'd rather just find my own, unless they trashed it or something, but... it'd be better than nothing.

[Literally anything would be better than the nothing they've got right now tbh]

[unapollogetic]

You don't think the rest of our stuff got wrecked in the explosion, do you? [ this isn't a thought he'd had until now, but now he has to consider it. ]

[homotron3000]

I thought about that, but it'd be weird if there was no evidence of it at all, right?

[unapollogetic]

If the explosion happened outside of the city, how would we know if there's evidence left behind or not?
