Who: Metabee and You
Where: Trailblazer Dorms, CONDOR HQ, Some Park
When: About a week after the cyborg invasion
What: Metabee's back in society after getting his programming cleaned up.
Warnings: Grumpy teen robots

Waking up alone in the one of the towers was not really the ideal way to come back online. With the AI out of commission, and no longer screwing up his core processing, his internal readouts were going crazy with error reports. He managed to get himself out of the tower and called up the Medabot Corp first thing, feeling pretty rundown. It didn't take them long to track him down and get him back to the labs, and even moving quick on the repairs it was still nearly a week by the time they were willing to let him out.

CONOR HQ

As soon as Metabee has passed all the tests AGAIN, he'd been sent over to CONOR HQ for a debrief. Which was as bring as painful as it sounded, since he had to recount how he got abducted after attempting to met with Dr. Dynamo, putting his teammate at risk in the process, and proceed to assist the AI in it's questionable goals. They'd been at it for hours, asking a hundred questions, many of which he couldn't answer. It felt like forever before they finally approved him to return to the Trailblazers.

He was currently sulking on on of the hall benches near the exit, waiting for a ride to drive him back to the dorms.

TRAILBLAZER DORMS

Coming back to the dorms was simultaneously a relief and a little weird. Metabee hadn't exactly treated the others the nicest he could have when he was being controlled by the AI, and he knew them all well enough to know they were probably sitting on grudges. Or 'I told you so's, considering how many of them had accurately suspected he was making a lousy decision.

When he quietly pushed the main door open, no one else was around, but then most people didn't hang out by the front door anyway. He made his way down the hallway, hesitating a brief moment before calling out.

"Yo, guys, I'm back and not brainwashed."

SOME PARK

Even having just come back form being brainwashed, when public opinion was very much again AIs right now, there was only so much sitting around Metabee could handle. He'd waited till it was a little less busy outside to head down to the park nearest the dorms, climb one of the larger trees in the area, and parked out on his favorite branch to people watch. He wasn't exactly out of sight, but it was pretty clear he wasn't exactly open to interaction right now. Even on that short walk he'd gotten some pretty nasty glares from people, being an AI wasn't exactly the most popular thing right now.

Threaded | Flat

When Miko had decided to go out for a while, wandering the city and looking around, it was mainly with the hope that she would run into one of her... friends? She wasn't around most of them for long, and 'allies' didn't seem right either - acquaintances from the cyborg incident. The way she had ended up losing contact with each of them, left with no idea of what happened to them and whether they got out of that mess safely, didn't sit well with her.

She wasn't sure how good the chances were of actually encountering any of them by just drifting around like this, but it was worth a shot, and it wasn't like she had much to go on here.

What she was not expecting or intending was to see a rather familiar yellow robot sitting in a tree at a park.

The moment she saw Metabee, she froze, a few yards away from the tree. Then she ran up to the base of the trunk, pointing up at him accusingly. "It's YOU! What are you doing here?!"

Nilin was hurt. She was determined that she was not as hurt as she was, which is what she kept telling the physicians, but they still wouldn't clear her for combat training. She didn't know what to do with herself if she wasn't spending a significant chunk of her time working out, so she was understandably a bit grumpy.

She couldn't help but pause on her way out, however, when she saw the small robot sitting on the bench. It looked a bit upset, despite being a robot, and she felt some sympathetic instinct kick in. Nilin really wasn't any good at this sort of emotions business, but she stopped nonetheless. It looked like a kid, and she wanted to make sure it was alright.

"Are you... are you waiting for someone?"

For a moment, there's no response to his announcement... and then Rikki appears, barreling down the hall into the foyer only to come to an abrupt stop a couple feet away from him. She lets out a huge breath of relief, and smiles at him only a little nervously. She hasn't been here long, and she's been a little stand-offish the whole time, so she doesn't know him well, but she has been feeling guilty about the way things went. She was supposed to make sure he didn't get taken by the crazy AI.

"Welcome back! I was really starting to worry, it'd been so long, and..." She pauses, bites her lip. "I'm sorry I didn't... That I wasn't much help, when you got caught. I didn't mean to leave you, I just went to get backup, and... Anyway, I'm sorry."
