[culver]

YES
I CAN'T SAY ANYTHING TO HER
WHY IS SHE ACCOSTING ME

[unapprovedtrash]

[ Oh no... Stars of all the people for Ava to swoop... ]

I'm sorry! She probably got her circuits rattled when the wind took her! I'm sending you a direct voice call request. Accept it and I'll see if she listens to me through it.

[culver]

[she does accept it, and now he gets to hear flapping wings, but not those of the robobird. nill is doing her best ok.]

[unapprovedtrash]

Just let me know if she settles down.

[ Ava's wings make more of a buzzing sound so when Cal hears the flapping he figures Nil's just a frantic Legend and he can't blame her. He feels SO guilty as he talks into the speaker. ]

Ava perch!

[ He can still hear the buzzing and flapping... ]

Ava stop!

[ Nope. ]

Ava heel?

[ That's not a command and he knows it but he's getting desperate here. ]

Ava sing?

[ Finally the buzzing slows to a stop and the robot simmers down at last, perched neatly on Nil's head as her speakers produce a digital sounding version of a Songbird's call. ]

[culver]

[she's trying really hard not to swat this bird out of the air, but it's. it's really hard ok. and even harder when she sees the first few commands go unheeded.

but then at sing, ava settles down on her head and, well. sings. kind of. close enough, and at least she's stopped flitting around her head. nill can finally get her hands back on her comm.]

Thanks
Now she's on my head, but I guess it's better than dive-bombing my face.

[unapprovedtrash]

Sorry again about that. She's kind of just a baby now I think. I've been trying to train her through the Relic but it's a little slow going.

I think if you hold your hand up to her she should hop on it though, then you can just put her down.

[culver]

You have to train her? Not just... program her?

[nill's experience with robots isn't extensive, but she knows enough to assume this]

Well I don't want to just put her on the ground. She's pretty small. Someone might step on her.

[unapprovedtrash]

Well she already has a cute little personality, very curious. I don't want to screw that up if I adjust her core programming. It feels too cruel. She seems to have good learning algorithms though so I want to work with that even if it's slower.

[ Cal Kestis is very affirmative in his beliefs that many droids have amazing potential for emotional capacity. His best friend back home BD-1 certainly does. ]

I'll thank you you keeping her safe then. Despite the poor introduction. I think I figured out how her homing signal works so I'll try and make my way to to pick her up!

[culver]

Oh. Well, that's really sweet.

Okay. You could have also just asked where we were, but this works too.

[unapprovedtrash]

If I asked where you were I wouldn't get to try out the homing signal...

[ A boy needs to play with his toys sometimes. ]

I mean try it out in a controlled and safe scenario and not because I just wanted to mess with one of the options I've haven't gotten to use yet. Obviously.

[culver]

Right, obviously. If I don't see you in like fifteen minutes, I'll tell you how close you got.

[unapprovedtrash]

I only get fifteen minutes??
...Are you by any chance in Exile or Epiphany? My only indication right now is an 'E'

[culver]

I think that's plenty of time if you've already started moving.

Nope. Let me know if you want a hint.

[unapprovedtrash]

Folkmore is a big place! I might have to get flying and I don't really have the hang of that yet.

Okay maybe just a small hint.

[culver]

Maybe it'll be good practice.

"E" probably means "east."

[unapprovedtrash]

'Good practice' you sound like one of my teachers from when I was a kid!
Guess you're right though, on that and the East thing. That does make sense...

[ It's the most obvious answer. East... but not in Exile. That leaves Willow. It does seem like the homing function is reacting well to the direction at least! Progress. ]

Would you say you're in a house in a tree?

[culver]

Is that a bad thing?

No, not in a house at all. But there are some trees around here.
