We're all back from Eos. I don't know how it was for everyone else, but I got to live in a house with two beautiful women and a charming young man. There was a baby, too, but we had to leave her behind.

Now I'm in this flat that I moved into not long before we left for Eos, and it's fine, really, but it seems a bit empty. I know it won't be that way for long, since I'm very much used to living alone, but I wonder if anyone else feels a bit off after sharing a house with other people for a month.

And is it weird if I miss her? I know she wasn't a real baby, but she was so cute and sweet. Wherever you are, I hope you're doing well, little Violet.

Aurora might let you have one if you asked. I don't know for sure but she builds the companion bots.

I don't know if it would be the same to you. But she likes knowing what people wants and trying to help them.

At the time, it seemed like Violet needed me. Asking for a bot isn't really the same thing.

And if Aurora actually cared to help us, she'd help us find a way to save all the worlds, not run us through a bunch of tests to determine if you pass or fail.

[tinflower]

I guess so. But I don't know if she can? People talk a lot about her being restricted by her programming.

[100more]

Then can we say she actually 'likes' anything? She's just a program used to control us.

[tinflower]

She offered to help me with something personal without me asking. So I don't know if her programming is that cut or dry.

I also can't say she would help us with our planets even if she could. But someone said that trying to influence her can't hurt.

[100more]

Really? What did she help you with?

[tinflower]

I want to learn how to build things like the companion bots here. She said she'd teach me how to build them. She gave me books.

That could be a worthwhile project.

sorry for the late tag! i never got a notif

[tinflower]

Yeah. I didn't think she would be okay with it but I guess there isn't anything bad I can really do since I'm new to this.

Anyway, I understand not trusting the bots or Aurora or any of them. You probably shouldn't. But there's a chance that speaking with them isn't a total dead end. That's what someone said to me and I'm trying to remember it too.

no problem!

I'll try to keep that in mind.

I imagine there are others here who know a thing or two about building. Maybe they could help you.

[tinflower]

Maybe. I never thought about asking before but I could do that.

You think it wouldn't be weird?

[100more]

Not at all. In fact, I'm sure there are some who would relish a project.

[tinflower]

I guess so. But we'll need materials... I don't know what makes them give us points but I'm gonna have to find out so they keep doing it.
