He holds no malice. Though, the radio silence was not to your liking, was it?

[𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙏𝙧𝙞𝙥𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚 @mostpestilent]

Nurse..?

[ Subspace hadn’t expected that.. and his face wrinkled in a sort of thoughtful confusion as he pondered further. ]

Err, well. If she’s not busy, I suppose you could.

[𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙏𝙧𝙞𝙥𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚 @mostpestilent]

— It’s convenient.

[𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙏𝙧𝙞𝙥𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚 @mostpestilent]

[ It was a simple answer, and almost a little naive, but that was exactly the kind of answer Subspace was looking for. ]

Alright, you may be granted permission to.. walk around the facility every now and then.
I’d just like you to return to your testing chamber before 8pm. —

[ Ponder. ]

Go out.. Go out.
Hm, well.
What would you do if you got out.. would you just.. wander?

[❝ 𝐒𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐆𝐨𝐨 ❞ @the_gr33n_goo]

ㅤ
Bleeeeh . .
I wanna go oooout . .
ㅤ

[𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙏𝙧𝙞𝙥𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚 @mostpestilent]

-try and shoot it again? Although, this time, try not to squeal. Focus.. and maybe you might even aim better.

How exciting.
[ Subspace muttered to himself. ]

[𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙏𝙧𝙞𝙥𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚 @mostpestilent]

[ Goo’s shot was disappointing, but it was exhilarating to finally see his technology in action. ]
[ He nodded to himself. ]

Good, yes, like that. We’ll just have to train you to work on your aim!
And.. ahaha, to get you even more used to it obviously.

…
So.. why don’t you-

{ Deep breaths. Aim the palm forward. Forcing more of the acid to form, she watched it travel through the tubes in question-- barely processing when the first 'shot' was out-- and pretty much missing the pain target area, squealing in surprise. }

. . !!

[𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙏𝙧𝙞𝙥𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚 @mostpestilent]

-they work on making Goo-proof targets.

[𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙏𝙧𝙞𝙥𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚 @mostpestilent]

…Now!
While you were asleep, I set up some targets for you to shoot at.

[ Subspace stands up, and gestures to the wall of the chamber, where he has set up some simple targets, alike to an archer’s. ]

They’re.. probably going to melt, but, it’s just to get things started as-

{ If only she could actually see it..
she reached her good hand out, trying to have a feeling of the connection, the material-- looking physically uncomfortable for just a moment. }

ii. . i seeEe .

{ Looking at him now, she lowered both arms. }

when do iii.. test iit ?
ㅤ

[𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙏𝙧𝙞𝙥𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚 @mostpestilent]

-the acid you naturally produce!

[𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙏𝙧𝙞𝙥𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚 @mostpestilent]

Ah, a good question! Important too. Those tubes will transfer the acid from your head— to your arm.

[ As he speaks, he drags a claw down the tube… Starting of course, from her head, which she didn’t seem to notice, at least, until now. ]

And with that, it will make use of all-

[❝ 𝐒𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐆𝐨𝐨 ❞ @the_gr33n_goo]

ㅤ
iiit's . . cooOl . .

{ Squinting again, she slowly flexed them, palm turned towards herself.
So that was the 'hole'? She wondered how it was activated. Better not try yet. .

Though she did notice the tubes, and that dull feel on her head.. }

What aare. . these foOor?
ㅤ

[𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙏𝙧𝙞𝙥𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚 @mostpestilent]

It’s a wonderful thing, isn’t it?

[ Subspace nods, and a grin slowly creeps onto his face. ]

Now try flexing your fingers.

[❝ 𝐒𝐜𝐢���𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐆𝐨𝐨 ❞ @the_gr33n_goo]

ㅤ
{ Getting used to something foreign to your body.. she only hoped it wouldn't take a long time for that feeling to go away. }

{ Slowly but surely. She managed to, stopping halfway through to turn it-- trying to look into details.

It wasnt.. as bad as she thought. }

Ooh..
ㅤ

[𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙏𝙧𝙞𝙥𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚 @mostpestilent]

We’ll get into that soon enough.. for now I just want you to test the movements. See if it all works correctly.

Which.. well, it should.
So, ah, could you lift your arm for me? The robotic one.

[❝ 𝐒𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐆𝐨𝐨 ❞ @the_gr33n_goo]

ㅤ
Aaaah . . --?

{ squint . . she's trying to look at herself, but her sight's still blurry .

but with the little bits she could make from the 'new arm' . .
her eye went wide . }

Oo oO h . . !

Hoow doooes it . . woOork . .
ㅤ

[𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙏𝙧𝙞𝙥𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚 @mostpestilent]

I do imagine it would.

[ He said blankly. ]

But I’m going to need you to focus. Wakey-wakey, Goo.

@odiumtoxin Excuse me❓

[𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙏𝙧𝙞𝙥𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚 @mostpestilent]

@odiumtoxin ?

[𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙏𝙧𝙞𝙥𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚 @mostpestilent]

[ Subspace just turns to stare at her. ]

[𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙏𝙧𝙞𝙥𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚 @mostpestilent]

Ah, she’s awake.

[—— TRIPMINE .ᐟ @F1NALG00DBYES]

So high up I'm near divine !

[𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙏𝙧𝙞𝙥𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚 @mostpestilent]

[ … ]

[ Subspace lifts and then lowers her now-attached robotic arm, but it’s not quite in use yet. ]
[ He turns to Goo. It will be soon, though! ]
