[The picture opens with Perceptor standing in front of what looks like a spacebridge type portal. It's obviously active. He also seems to be holding a Greatsword. Yes, a Greatsword an awful lot like the Greatswords carried by Wing and Drift. This one is obviously just a little different, though, but still, just as obviously, a Knight of Light Greatsword.]

[In his other hand, he's holding an arm. It looks like a certain other Perceptor's arm. Just... not quite exactly the same.]

Ah, Drift? At your earliest possible convenience, could I trouble you for some advice?

[No one is saying that you're weak, Drift.]

As you wish.

Correlation does not imply causation, Drift. I will make an inquiry into your transformation, and into the possibility of other individuals being affected in a similar manner, however, there may be no more specific reason than chaos theory. Especially here, where the Lambda is capable of influencing and interfering with so much.

[He holds up a hand quellingly.]

Whatever the cause, whether it is some nefarious plot, or pure chaotic interference, we will determine the cause and reverse it.

[He sighs softly, eyeing Drift with a pensive expression.]

Are you certain that there is nothing else you require?

[Drift is.]

There's no such thing as chaos. Things happen for a reason. [Wing. Wing happened for a reason. ]

[He's trying to be philosophical and detached because if he lets it get to him, he's going to have an epic meltdown. He may have one anyway.]

I'm fine. Or I will be. [He looks around the room. ] This is the safest place for me anyway.

[Well, stop it, then.]

The Lambda is chaos. [He sighs and waves one hand in a faintly dismissive gesture.] I shall save the philosophical debate for after you have been restored.

[Perceptor looks around as well. He feels as if he's failed Drift.]

For now, that is likely. You will require food and other facilities eventually, though. And water. Human require additional hydration.

[If there's anything that he can pull over to the berth to help Drift climb up and down, Perceptor will do that now.]

I will adjust your door access so that you can trigger it with your communicator, if that is all right?

[No. :| You're not his dad.]

[He manages a smile.] After. Yes. [He is trying to cling to the idea that this is fixable. And not just because he only has one outfit.]

I'll manage. [He does the ungraceful thing of sliding his belly along the berth, the skirts hiking up, to dangle his legs over the edge, to drop to the floor.]

You should go check on the others. [Because he needs to go mope.]

[schrodingersbot]

[Well, that's quite the relief. That would (hopefully) have the potential to get quite awkward, otherwise, someday.]

After. There will be an "after", Drift. I swear it.

[Because Perceptor will not rest until Drift has been restored. That's not hyperbole, either.]

I know that you can. [Perceptor fixes Drift with a sad look.] You always do. I just wish...

Contact me if you require anything? Please, Drift?
