First Trial of the Dragon! [video]

[feminine_carnivore]

Heeeey, is this thing even on? How am I supposed to even tell if it's on?

[ It's definitely on, and Chie's on camera. Just your average short haired, kung fu loving steak addict. ]

Listen up! I have a question I totally need answered.

Has anyone ever seen two copies of people? Like, there's one, who knows everything you know, and then another who doesn't?

[ Chie's not exactly a wordsmith, she's better at kicking people. ]

Oh, and does anyone know where I can get the best steak in the city? This is very important, I haven't had anything as good as Aiya's beef bowl since I got here!

[ Maybe some manly boxer will be able to point her in the right direction. ]

[Nano just stares for a moment, blinking. She'd thought Chie had already figured that out when she noticed the key.]

Um... yes, that's right.

[feminine_carnivore]

[ Don't mind Chie, she doesn't always put two and two together! ]

But...you can't even tell or anything. O-Other than...you know.

[all_wound_up]

Right. It does kind of stick out, doesn't it?

[Nano heaves a small sigh, but smiles all the same as she glances back at the key. She used to not like it so much, but the it's part of what makes her unique.]

[feminine_carnivore]

Yeah, but it's not like it's a big deal or anything!

[ Chie would definitely be friends with someone with a big key in their back, she doesn't mind! ]

[all_wound_up]

I'm glad! I used to be so embarrassed about it.

[feminine_carnivore]

Really? Are there not a lot of robots where you come from?

[all_wound_up]

I'm the only one I know of.

[feminine_carnivore]

Oh wow, that must be...tough. Well, I know another robot, you guys should get together and...talk about robot stuff. [ Chie's playing matchmaker! ]

[all_wound_up]

Oh, do you mean Rock? Or Blues?

[But she already has a crush on someone else!]

[feminine_carnivore]

[ N-Not that kind of matching making!! ]

Huh? No I meant Labrys...wait, are there more robots here?!

[all_wound_up]

At least that many. I met another one named Miku a while ago, but I haven't seen her lately.

[feminine_carnivore]

That's so many! ...Does everyone have a key in their back?

Oh, hey, I forgot! My name's Chie Satonaka!

[all_wound_up]

No, I'm the only one.

[Which she's actually a little jealous about, deep down.]

It's nice to meet you, Chie! My name is Nano Shinonome.

[She smiles, politely bowing her head for a moment.]

[feminine_carnivore]

[ That does make sense though, why would a lot of robots have keys in their backs? Sorry Nano.. ]

Have you uh, been here long?

[all_wound_up]

Five months today, actually.

[feminine_carnivore]

Oh wow, that's pretty long. I'm still pretty new myself, but all my friends are here, it makes it a little easier. But it sounds like you have friends here too! [ What with all the robots walking around apparently.. ]

[all_wound_up]

Yes, everyone has been very nice!

[Nano smiles before taking on a more shy sort of look.]

Um... I'd like to be friends with you too, if that's all right, Chie-san.

[feminine_carnivore]

[ Well, it's not like she can say no to that face! ]

Of course! You don't happen to like Kung Fu movies or steak do you? [ Because that would be BFF category there.. ]

[all_wound_up]

I haven't seen very many kung-fu movies, but I'd love to watch one with you sometime! And I usually never had enough money for steak at home, but I'm making more money here, so I suppose I could try cooking one.

[feminine_carnivore]

What?! Have you even seen [ Wait for it...! ] TRIAL OF THE DRAGON?! It's the best Kung Fu movie in the whole world!

[all_wound_up]

It sounds exciting!

[feminine_carnivore]

It's the most exciting, most awesome Kung Fu movie in the whole world! You should totally come watch it sometime!

[all_wound_up]

It sounds amazing!

[Or Nano's easily impressed. Or both.]
