Are you shy? Have you never received any hugs? You may like it!

I won’t until I will give you several hugs to make you understand how wonderful they may be. Also, you’re not my parental figure or my boss.

8O for the love of all that is holy, go back to camp. I don’t have time to be dealing with your over-infatuation with human rituals.

                   R E V E N G E

                               leaves you cold

                                        so broken 

                                                and lost

                                       there’s no comfort found there                           not the peace of mind i’ve been searching for

                     but, anger is damn well better than NOTHING, right?

I will fucking throw 6 at you

Literally 

You know he will go along with it too 

No. 4 is more likely to cut you first and laugh about it then go along with you.

                            when I look in the  ( mirror ) 

                                       the demon looks back at me…

It was all far away. Too much so. It had been a mistake to allow his mind to wander. Truthfully it had been so gradual that he had no way of noticing once he was in too deep. He had sat and watched them, his downfall had been unconsciously accepting that these were drills they could do without him.

The odds had been stacked against him. Even as No. 4 spoke to him, it had taken a moment for the words to pull him from his thoughts.

As if seeing for the first time, the Instructor exhaled lowly and looked up at his student after a brief second spent accepting that his unit had long since left. No. 4′s doing, no doubt. 

“You took over, No. 4?” There was no accusing him, no berating, Black genuinely wanted to find out how much he owed his oldest student. “My bad. I should have focused.”

Saying that, Black didn’t stand. He had no ideas of being able to just walk out of this room without a comment from No. 4. The older Android waited. If 4 had something to say, there was nothing holding him back.

To see the Instructor in such a state had been concerning to say the least, when he’d always been so ironclad in his self-control and devoted to his work. The instant he had seen the android lose his focus, to space out during drills of all things--No. 4 had known to step up and bark out orders to give the others direction. It was an unspoken thing, really, that he take charge whenever their mentor was either not present or simply unable to perform one way or another.

This happened to be one of those times.

Nodding once in affirmation after hearing that query, after seeing him exhale audibly--The Gunner grew silent, debating pushing or not. While he certainly felt worry, it also wasn’t his place to question his superiors, but....

“....Instructor, this isn’t like you,” he comments finally, shifting his weight to one leg and fixing his gaze on the other. “--You’ve been acting this way ever since the Descent.”
