AND THEN THERE WAS BONDING
Jul. 28th, 2015 08:55 pmWell this was awkward. He was in the boarding house, and for once, it wasn't to dig through everything to look for Jackie. The steel bot had placed himself dead in the center of one of the houses many, many living rooms, fussing with his hat and looking around the room like he expected something to come screaming out of the wall and eat him. He'd only heard stories about the house being alive. It was spooky okay? He didn't like it.
He kept the hat tugged down over the dead eye with one hand, and was picking at his jaw furiously with the other, filling the room with little squeals and scrapes as that switchblade sharp claw dug away at the coal buildup around his injury. Why was he here? He sort of knew. Sort of. It wasn't like he knew which room was... her room, and there was no way he was comfortable enough to go stomping around the house looking for someone who, not but a few months earlier, happily set him on fire.
She might have walked him home once, but he wasn't sure if that was just the pity in her taking over for the moment, or a choice she was making for life.
May as well... find out here, he supposed. He just ensured the door wasn't too far away in case he had to bolt, puffing some smoke nervously.
