Twinwolf

6D had been fairly quiet, listening to the mission and not really giving her thoughts. After the discussion and after Perlita took one, she did. "If nobody minds, I will be taking something. Just in case." Take a Healing Circle

6D leaned in, observing it. "That's very interesting. I can't say that YorHa has been able to produce any... energy? Able to act like that. It must be a very useful ability." she says with clear curiosity.

6D bowed to the human that had just appeared - "Yes! I look forward to working with you!" she said cheerfully, before straightening and turning back to Mar. "That's interesting! I've studied old human cooking books, and it seems very different than what you're doing. How are you doing this stuff by hand?"

6D turned to the voice, and inclined her head in greeting. "Hello! I'm new here. Just taking a look aroun-" she paused, watching what the man was doing. "...I didn't know that cooking worked like that." she commented. "What are you doing?"

Eventually, another individual wanders into the engineering bay. 6D was making a stop here in her quest to map out the castle. The android looks around the bay, somewhat impressed with the machinery of the castle - it wasn't exactly the shiny, well maintained machinery she was used to, but it was also quite a lot bigger than any of it. The engine was probably in itself bigger than the entire engineering bay of the Bunker.

6D did bow now, although not as sharply as she had with Hiroki. "Good to meet you!" she repeated. "I am YorHa Defense-class Unit 6. You can call me 6D, for short! Your AI is right, I'm an android. So you don't have to worry about food for me." ... After a few moments of quiet, 6D's support pod abruptly speaks up. "Recommendation: Unit should explore the castle in order to develop a map." 6D considered that for a few moments, then nodded, bowing to the group. "Excuse me. I need to familiarize myself with the area, if we will be staying here for a while." Aft

6D, who had followed Hiroki and the others like a lovesick puppy because she had no idea where she was even supposed to be, stood behind the others quietly. It was another human, oh gosh... she wanted to bow again, but she was still self-repairing the earlier damage, so she settled for a quiet, somewhat awkward wave. Oh, great, one hundred percent normal human greeting and not just making a fool of yourself. "H-Hello. I'm new as well. It is good to meet you. Yes." Nailed it.

6D "...I'll go to, I guess? I think it will be good to take a look around, in any case." 6D said simply. She didn't actually need to eat. She wasn't sure she could actually? Something to check.

6D "If there are, then I hope they don't cause... issues, like has been going on." She then turned to the new arrival. "Hello. As explained, we are apparently here to fight trespassers. Except apparently, when dealing with multiversal trespassers, it indicates a desire to wipe out all of existence. I don't think a club large enough to deal with them exists. That is about all that I know as of right now."

6D The Pod had reported anomalies, but not in time to change anything. So, that all happened. 6D was left staring confused. Annnd then the bird opened her mouth. "...I don't believe there are any alien machine lifeforms about, if you're worried. The Pod couldn't detect any. Unless you meant me, in which case I would be offended by the insinuation I am an alien." she said to the newcomer. She turned to Hiroki. "Hiroki, if you don't mind me asking, does this happen a lot?"

6D "For the most part, I'm more of a support - I don't so much kill the machines myself but keep the more attack-oriented units from being targetted. If you mean personally, something about..." she paused, and then nodded to the Pod, which displayed a hologram of a strange looking machine that was tall enough that 6D only made it to it's knee. "This is the biggest thing I've taken in personal combat, a Goliath-class machine. The building-sized ones, Engels, require Flight Units and several androids working together to defeat, but they're really rare. We would be roughly the size of

6D 6D shook her head. "I'm sure they would if they could, but it's really hard to get stuff from the moon to Earth, or the reverse. So, they can't do anything like that." she paused. "Yeah, we can have fun. Most of the time for the ground units it's just talking with others we like, though. I've heard the Operators have started to get really into things like collecting pictures of flowers, or fortune-telling, though I haven't been to the Bunker in a bit to talk about it."

6D "Because we still receive yearly messages from them, thanking us for our hard work." 6D said automatically. Granted, they were usually pretty similar, but not much had really changed over the centuries so it made sense that not much changed in those messages.

6D "Kinda yes and kinda no?" 6D said. "Like I told Rory, they were around, but then the aliens attacked and the survivors went to the moon. Then they built us and we've been fighting the alien machines ever since. I think the Commander is the only one that's been around long enough to have seen humans in person."

6D "YorHa is the name of the organization that created me. My personal designation is 6D. B-But you can call me whatever you want, of course." 6D managed quickly. "It is, um, good to meet you, Yukimura Hiroki.

6D The android righted herself, mentally filing away the damage report on her spine. She remained at rigid attention as she continued to speak. "I, uh, thank you. D-Do you mind telling me your name so I don't have to continue calling you 'human' because that seems kind of disrespectful..." Please don't be offended please don't be offended...

6D "Alert: Analysis indicates third unidentified lifeform is homo-sapiens." The pod reported suddenly. Oh gosh it was a human. A real human! Not one from her world, but it was still a human! Crap, crap, crap, uh, what were the protocols for this? Her first instinct was shouting 'GLORY TO MANKIND' at the top of her lungs, but it might scare her or she might not get it, that probably wasn't a normal greeting for people in other worlds was it? What should she say then? Data indicates 'what's up', 'hi', 'yo', and various other possibilities for english language speaking hu

"So, now that you've stopped threatening us... could you explain some things? I got a basic summary, but as I mentioned, the little one wasn't speaking clearly." 6D said, relaxing her stance but still ready to move at a moment's notice.

6D "Alert: Potential Hostile." the Pod reported before 6D could respond to Rory. Just in time for the cannon to poke through a doorway. "Behind me." 6D said simply to Rory, just in case. "YorHa Unit 6D. One moment I was on Earth, the next I was here. I was informed we are to fight monsters meaning to end the universe..." she paused. "...I'll be blunt, the little thing's explanation was a bit abstract."

6D "The aliens created the machines and attacked Earth for no reason that we know of. The survivors of mankind fled to the moon, and created us to take their world back." 6D responded. "The machines were never subjects of the humans, so they couldn't revolt against them."

6D The android nodded. "Assuming that the creatures have damage resistance similar to what you are familiar with, I imagine it would." She didn't know what the baseline for these 'Grimm' were, but she imagined it was a similar difference between the standard machine lifeforms and the heavier ones.

6D 6D looked at him, apparently confused for a few moments, before snapping her fingers. "Right, this looks like a blindfold... it is a tactical visor, gathering information from my environment and projecting it onto my eyes to enhance both focus and situational awareness." she paused. "But... I assume that you didn't just mean the visor. I'm a YorHa Defense-class combat android. We were built to take the Earth back from the machines." Nothing classified in that, right? Right.

"Hm. I don't think they had anything like you where I was from." At least, there were no records of human-animal hybrids. Not that many full records existed. And yet, not an alien... apparently. "Multiverse theory: For every possibility, there is a different dimension or universe." the Pod said. "Analysis: We are no longer in our home universe."

6D... well, if she rose an eyebrow it was invisible. She did tilt her head questioningly. "For a given value of smart. Pod, continue analysis." "Unidentified lifeform appears human to visual scans. However, other forms of scans cannot make contact. Therefore, full analysis is impossible. Conjecture: Unidentified lifeform is either producing an energy field, or has equipment able to do so."

6D "Analysis: Unidentified lifeform does not show indicators of lying. Recommend considering statement truthful" the Pod reported. Alright, but how do you translate that? Things that exist hurt the monsters, so they want to make everything nothing. Boil that down, like she said: Fight the monsters. Machines, perhaps? Or maybe the ones that created them even. And, "everything" would include humans - therefore, logically, to protect humans, these monsters must be stopped. The others could hold down the metaphorical fort at Earth. Although... if they weren't on Earth or ne
