Friends can be a bother

[mecha_eihwaz]

[What is this ruckus? Lily is being thrown into the air repeatedly by a group of other robots! Familiar ones, to many of you.]


   
Hip hip hooray! Hip hip hooray!


...Hooray.

Ahh... Thanks, but come on, guys! Don't you think this is enough?


Nope. Suddenly you announce you're getting married, and you beat up the big final boss while we handle the mooks? Talk about stealing the thunder! We'll keep doing this forever!

A ha ha... Help?

You constantly worry about everything. That already makes you a better ambassador than someone who doesn't give a crap about anything!

You're one to talk, Winberrl...

Hmm? Were you saying something, Lily? Back to the hoorays with ye!

Ahh...!

[More throwing commences.]

[emorangerpink]

I don't worry about everything. Do I?

[Worry worry. She's just pretending, though, right?]

[mecha_eihwaz]

Oh no, just-


Affirmative.

[emorangerpink]

This is really bad! Lily, you'll have to come up with some way to keep my from worrying! Something to fully occupy my mind...

[mecha_eihwaz]

I can think of a few things...


Ooooooohh~!


...I'll be in my bunk.

I didn't mean it like that...!

[emorangerpink]

[Well Laura did, Lily, so consider your friends on notice that she's going to need you to herself for a while soon.]

I hope we'll be seeing plenty of visitors from the Ark here, too, before long. Of course, the task force that brought you here is a good start.

[mecha_eihwaz]

Oh yes, do you have any idea how many people want to see a planet filled with biological life? Expect a lot of them in the future!

I think my parents are among them... I talked a lot about Earth with them, after all.

[emorangerpink]

It's such a shame we have to push the wedding forward... I wanted them to be able to be here for it. We'll see them soon, though...

[mecha_eihwaz]

Don't worry, there's a way for them to be here at least in some way! A long-distance holographic communicator will at least let them see what's going on and talk to us, with a small delay.

[emorangerpink]

Oh! That's fantastic! I didn't realize it was possible to get the communication lag down that low...

[mecha_eihwaz]

Well, it's not exactly that low... But much faster than my previous communication!
