[A sharp vent in]

Well- yeah, but- I mean it-

[A grumbling sigh at himself and a quiet scrape of Crash digging the point of a drill in the floor and twisting it back and forth with his cheeks puffed out]

Okay. Okay then that's me asking. And you said we can. So- so we will. Do you like movies? I've been watching them since I got here to catch up on things the doctor didn't program into me. I was only a month old when I got here so-

[Scrape, scrape]

So maybe one of those. One of the funny ones.

[ Elec sighs softly. For as much as he complains about Doctor Light, Wily REALLY screwed his robot masters up. One month old and he only knows fight and he didn't give him hands and he gave him zero socialization.

It's not right.

He wipes a hand down his face and grins. They say you can hear a smile. ]

Let's meet up in one of the common rooms set up for people our size. We can watch Kung Fu Panda. Really funny, lots of action. I think you'd like it.

[Crash can hear the smile in his voice and he smiles back, some of the tension bleeding out of his shoulders]

Okay. Okay, yeah. I've been in those rooms sometimes with Quick, he wanted to show me uh... [He frowns, because he thinks his head was full of static that day from a really bad emotion bomb thing, so a lot of it may as well not have happened] Something. He showed me something.

Anyway... Pandas are some of those fuzz monsters, right. Animals. I heard the word in movies, they're uh... I dunno. The fuzzy ones.

[He lifts his drill out of the hole he's ended up digging into it and makes a thoughtful chirping sound]

When do you want to do that? Gold Arm says not to assume things even if I think it means that.

[electricevolution]

Yeah. They're the fuzz monsters.

[ He snorts. That's one way to put it. And the conversation is still joyfully awkward. Kind of gives Crash a cute element.

Which is thoughts he thought he would never have ever about any Wilybots. But they keep piling up. Snake of course. Heatman is just. They should make a plushie out of that kid.

Flash and Quick are at least one hundred percent not cute and never will be. ]

You can still set up plans without assuming. It's all collaboration. Or something. You doing anything day after tomorrow? Afternoon?

[kaleidescopic_fury]

Collaboration.

[Crash repeats after Elec, delighted enough to wiggle his legs where he's sitting cross-legged so they tinktinktink against the floor]

Okay. Okay, yeah! Collaboration. Okay. And collaboration means telling you that I don't think I'm doing anything day after tomorrow afternoon? So we can watch the movie and I can decide what new things it shows me about outside the lab. Everything does, even if it's just something like... 'People think this weird sad thing gets the emotions out' which um. Does seem to work? Maybe?

[He shrugs, still wiggling, and now adding tapping his drills on his legs to add to the happy noises]

It made the static in my head go away one time. Not as good as when Quick or Mega do it, though.
