[i]"Heh. Don't worry about payment."
Penny was like a daughter to JT, so there was no need for him to take payment. Nor any ways, given her financial status. He stood up from his seated position and gave a sigh of relief. [/i]

"Seal it up, Bismuth." Nothing was said then, as the floor once more sunk, disappearing into a pit below, as the original blank one reappeared and slipped back into place, leaving the room empty once more. Penny sat down on a bench across the room, rubbing her temples.
-
[i]"Are you feeling alright, Penny?" [/i]
-
"You try having someone dig around your core processors and redo coding. Everything doesn't feel right, but I know its as it should be." She groaned then, leaning back against the wall.
-
[i]"Yeah, had it happen before. Back home in Cedyetica, got a chip implanted into my brain. Hurt like hell for weeks." [/i]
-
"You had a chip. You just reset a part of me, then redid the rest. Half sure there's a big difference there."
-
[i]"Not really. I was a massive junkie back in the day - So the guy augmenting me had to deal with installing part of my brain as it malfunctioned."[/i]
-
"Oh..." It was all she could muster at the moment, falling silent again. The only sound now being the sound of the machines constructing the body. Eventually she looked back up. "I'm sorry."
-
[i]"Don't be," JT said, his tone somewhat upbeat. There were times he reminisced on his past, but never times he regretted augments. "It was a different time." [/i]
-
"Well, it was that. And I'm sorry for earlier." She let put out a sigh then, standing up.
-
[i]"Not your fault, I made an error is all. Won't happen again." [/i]
-
"No, I should have let you know sooner, it would have avoided that whole mess."
-
[i]"No, we both reacted badly to it. Remember." [/i]
-
"If you say so..." She trailed off then, deep in thought once more.
-
[i]"Want me to leave you be for now?" [/i]
-
"I... I don't want to be alone." Her words sounded a bit forced, as she made herself say them. It was reality, after all.
-
[i]"Alright. How about you come to my place? Me and Irina could do with some company." [/i]
-
"Are you sure?" She turned her head to face him, not fully, but enough.
-
[i]"Of course. You're welcome by anytime." [/i]
-
"Well. If your fine with it, I guess." Now she turned all the way around.
-
[i]"Come on then," JT said as he started walking backwards to the entrance. [/i]
-
She hesitated a moment, but then did start walking forward, following after JT.
-
[spoiler]End. Let's just say she's able to come by whenever and chill. Only ending because A) dunno what else to write and B) Irina is Orn's character so I can't write her lol. [/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Is all good lol At least that whole matter was resolved lmao[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Yup. [/spoiler]

"No, I made an error. I should have brought it up earlier. But I didn't, told myself it would be fine. Well, I said something that I shouldn't have. Things went from there." She went across the room then, standing in front of a window overlooking the rook constructing the body.
