A; BYE FELICIA

[ After everything that had happened with the back-to-back ViViDs and what he had learned about this place and its patterns, Giorno was ready to see what CERES was going to throw at them. The timeline fit and even though it had been pretty quiet, he wasn’t going to drop his guard as far as expecting things to go wrong were concerned. And just as he was exiting the door to leave for school—he gets his expected "present" as it were.

Two "presents" even.

The contents look to be something ripped out of a science fiction novel—then again this whole place and his current situation reeked of such a situation—as he looked down at the inactive robots. He vaguely recalls seeing the post from a Mosely regarding these. However, the matter of "what" to do with them doesn’t take more than a few moments as Giorno empties the contents of one of the boxes onto the hallway. It...really wasn’t going to move was it? All of the robots he had seen here were already activated and freely moved on their own. (Don’t think he doesn’t notice that big red button, he does.)

What if he tipped it over the ledge? Surely it must have some sort of programming preventing it from wanting to be hurt right? Was it goin—oh.

Oh.

Well, surely there was no one standing in the path of the falling robot, right? Or surely anyone who was that unfortunate to get in the way of it would have moved out the way. Regardless, Giorno is running over to lean over the railing to warn anyone below. ]

LOOK OUT!

[ Because I’m always up for anything!! If you want to discuss any possible scenario feel free to hit me up at octazooka or send me a PM and we can set something up seeing that Giorno is not taking part of the event. ]

[Yuri starts in surprise, yelping again as he jumps from the balcony as well. There's a 'Wait, don't--!' on her tongue that doesn't get verbalized, which is probably all for the better. She's seen people jump from greater heights or to greater heights before, but it doesn't make it any less shocking over time.

The railing turning into a vine thing helps, her bafflement fading as she remembers the incident with the butterfly and all.] Which part? [Did he not mean to do, she mans.] Throwing a robot over the balcony?

[She looks mildly skeptical but climbs to her feet, brushing herself off. There are some bruises likely to form, a few scrapes on her palm and legs from where she hit the ground, but nothing lasting.] I'll be okay. [She glances to the heap of a robot, frowning disapprovingly.]

If you wanted to get rid of it, there are other ways... [Less noisy and less flashy ways.]

[rejuvenate]

[ It's a good thing that she didn't yell it because it would have been for moot; there's no stopping Giorno when he has his mind set on something. Though he'll give her a quick run down and visibly relax some when he confirms that there's nothing wrong with her. ]

I had only meant to lean the robot over the edge to see if it had some sort of self-preservation built into it. [ Explanation of sorts given, he'll look over to the robot and inspect to see if there is any damage and to his surprise—it looks like the fall did anything to it. Just what was this thing made out of? ]

However, I should consider my options of how to get rid of it now.

[ There was no way he was going to drag this back up to his apartment but at the same time, there was also no way that he was going to leave it here on the ground where someone could accidentally use it for something. ]

[onerous]

[She leans over the robot as well, examining it curiously.] Not a scratch. [She'll voice it out loud since it is rather surprising. She crouches down and carefully moves the robot's limbs to look it over closer.]

They're pretty well-made. It's too bad we can't trust CERES, I'm sure it'd be nice to have something like this to protect you or something.

[She's already taken in Neji's robot, so--] If you want, you can leave it at my place. I seem to be starting a collection. [The corner of Yuri's mouth twitches, a hint of a smile, and she glances to him briefly.] I don't mind, honestly. I have the room.

[rejuvenate]

[ Not a scratch indeed and she did raise a good point about if they were able to use them, how helpful they would be. ]

If it were possible, it would most likely come with too high of a catch. [ Because if there's anything that Giorno has learned from this place during his short stay, it was that everything here came with some sort of price and that very little could be trusted.

Though when Yuri offers to take the robot off of his hands, it honestly makes him more worried than comforted. Giorno wanted to get rid of it due to the fact that there was no certainty of them. Did... Did she not see that? ]

Thank you for the offer, but I'm going to decline. I wouldn't feel at ease if something happened to you as a result of keeping too many of these in your home.

[onerous]

Knowing CERES, I'm sure they'll malfunction somehow and explode or there'll be some sort of bug in their programming.

[She purses her lips, considering] I'm not sure why so many people activated their's in the first place... I guess people like to hope that things will go right, or maybe they're new and just don't know any better... [Which is hard to believe, really, because she feels like 10 minutes in this place would clue anyone in, but. Okay.

Yuri glances at him again, shrugging lightly.] It doesn't bother me. Death is rather cheap in this place. [She says it rather casually, but hey if he's not gonna give it up she won't press.] I suppose you could always try to take it to the junkyard if you really want it out of your hair.

But maybe it'd be best to keep it, to keep a close eye on it too.

[rejuvenate]

[ There...was surprisingly a lot that he wanted to say to what she was saying but first thing's first: ]

What do you mean by "death is cheap"? [ Sorry but when it comes to the matter of someone's life, Giorno's not going to let that go too easily. Though on the same coin he's got to wonder... if she figures that they might malfunction, why keep it in her home in the first place? Offer more even?

It...didn't seem to make a lot of sense, but he'll let that go for now until she answered this question. ]
