"Yeah."

 

"Do you want a hug?"

"If you touch me and then touch other stuff people'll be mad."

Permalink

"Oh."

She nudges Deskyl. The woman is grumpy about being awoken, and rolls back over and goes to sleep after a brief exchange that ends with her making an incredulous face and firmly shaking her head, and then DZ stands and hugs Peka.

...aw, robot hug.

Permalink

Yeah.

"I hope we can help you."

Permalink

"Can you get us a planet for reds?"

Permalink

"Maybe. Deskyl knows some engineering; I don't know if she knows enough to build a spaceship, but she might, or she might be able to figure it out."

Permalink

"...a faster than light one not just a moon shuttle?"

Permalink

"One with a hyperdrive, yes."

Permalink

"Are most planets ones we can just go live on with air and things?"

Permalink

"Not most of them, but they're common enough."

Permalink

"A whole planet just for reds would be the best thing. Then the clean folks can have all the robots they want and won't kill us."

Permalink

"Well, I'm sure she won't mind helping with that, once she's feeling better."

Permalink

"Will that take a long time? We're probably moving on tomorrow."

Permalink

"Oh. Yes, quite a lot more than that. No less than twenty days, I expect, maybe several times that if she's in worse shape than I think or is interrupted often."

Permalink

"Oh. - if you find people around here they don't speak this language, I don't know any Voan."

Permalink

"It seems like I shouldn't be trying to talk to them anyway, or even letting them see me if I can help it."

Permalink

"Well what are you gonna do then?"

Permalink

"I don't know. I'll need to ask Deskyl, once she's awake."

Permalink

 

"Uh, if you wind up doing anything that gets money I need money for my baby."

Permalink

 

"Is there a safe way for me to do that?"

Permalink

"Reds'll be scared of you but anybody else'll be really excited. Deskyl looks like an Amentan except with funny hair, she could pass for having dyed it?"

Permalink

"I meant while Deskyl is healing - it sounds like they might want to take me apart, if they want to learn how to make robots. She won't let them, but it'll be a problem if that happens before she's healed."
