A; Day 25-28 ; BAD ROBOT
[ Ken "Never Asked For This" Kaneki, that should be his middle name. Because it really fits. kaneki didn't want the robot they offered him, and he found it downright creepy when he realized it was starting to mimic Kaneki in some ways. But it got even creepier with time and this is why we can't have nice things. It didn't get to the "I want to kill you" part (though that will only support kaneki's opinion on why everything sucks) - right now they are at the "I want to put cat ears on you part".

it's a terrible part.

kaneki is pretty much walking FAST while the Roboneki follows along, with what it looks like a sexy cat outfit in its hands. Why? because this is your life now, Kaneki, just accept it. Except he doesn't want to accept it, so his face is completely red, as he looks over his shoulder back at Roboneki ]
S-stop following me! I don't want to wear that!

With this, you may live among cats! You will find your place. [ Roboneki seems to find this totally logical.

this is when the real kaneki might bump into you ]



B; Day 29-30; RUN BOY RUN
[ Now THIS is the part where it kills you.

tries to, at least.
fails a lot at it, as well.

Kaneki managed to get past the whole "trying to shove Kaneki into a cat suit and send him off to live with cats", but he can't ignore the fact that the robot keeps getting weirder by the minute. He'd be fine if all there was to it was "weird", but when he wakes up in the morning Kaneki is suddenly faced with his robotic doppelganger pulling out its kagune right in front of him. This is the part kaneki knows things aren't just "weird" anymore: they are really dangerous too (probably).

The red tendrils grow and grow and Kaneki panics and panics, horror taking over him as he understands what is happening. So he does the right thing to do: he runs. What? Would YOU fight a murderous robot with tentacles coming out of its back? No, you wouldn't. Or you shouldn't, at least.

The boy runs outside his house to the streets and of course Roboneki follows, but those red tendrils aren't easy to control. With a sudden rush of murderous intent, Roboneki moves all three of them and suddenly stabs the nearby building - and the kagune gets stuck there and he is unable to get it out.

Breathing heavily, Kaneki ( the real one!) steps back even further trying to figure what to do about the robot which currently struggles to pull out the kagune from the wall. Should he... kill it maybe? Before it goes around eating people, at least. ]

Yes.

[That seems to be happening a lot, actually.]

...Are you hurt? [She turns, now that they seem to be safe, giving him a visual once-over to see if he's been injured.]
protectthecastle: (thinking | you're up to something)

[personal profile] protectthecastle 2016-04-29 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[As soon as she hears that he's okay, she lets herself relax.]

Thank goodness.

[But she keeps holding his hand, looking around just in case they have to run again.]

I do not know very much about robotics, so I could not say what is happening. But I have seen a few robots doing this, so I suspect they may all be doing the same. The...

[Thing? Tentacles? She pauses, unsure as to how she should refer to the red growth on the robot's back.]

...what it had been using to attack you...do you know what that was?
protectthecastle: (thinking | that's not how it works)

[Veronica doesn't push, letting go of his hand just as gently and carefully. They had time, didn't they?

But still, she knows that no matter how disappointed she is that she didn't get an answer, he doesn't owe her anything.]


...May I ask what you mean?

[If he says that he doesn't want her to ask though, she'd just focus on getting him out of here and to some place safe.]
