[So, remember that neat police headquarter building that went up recently?]

[Well, you're getting a delightful view of its roof from above, as the ninjabot makes his landing on said roof. A roof which has sprouted a new addition in the last, quiet, few days. And it kind of... looks like a nest, for lack of a better word.]

[Granted, it's a nest made out of bits of scrap metal and whatever else he managed to find in the junk pile recently. But there's a shelter over one end, and, as he steps nearer to it, the interior of the bowl-shaped construction has... a definite color scheme. Purple and green bits and pieces stuck to the walls.]

[Meanwhile, Kagerou just. Steps in. As if this were the most normal thing ever.]

Since we're discussing the disappearances... [He thought posting his location would be smart.] If I'm needed, I will be staying up here from now on.

It shouldn't be difficult to find.

I wonder if it's like instinct.

[But they're robots. Designed by Commissioner Saejima. So.]

No eggs? That can't do, Kagerou! I'll - I can find eggs for you to sit on!

[It's a great idea! Nests should have eggs. ~~We can even paint them purple for you.~~]

You're not hiding anything, are you?

[Your reluctance is suspicious. It's something embarrassing, isn't it. 8')]

Instinct?

[Anything is possible when your commissioner is Saejima.]

What-- no! No, I don't need anything like that. What would I do with... eggs?

[He just looks more and more embarrassed. Good call, Boss.]

I'm not hiding... If you didn't see her post and she hasn't spoken to you, then it's nothing.

[... That embarrassing post about robot offspring.]

Ah - yeah! Birds build nests all the time! So.

[~~Your Build Team is now tigers.~~]

You sure? Well - you'd sit on them. I think it's to keep them warm.

[Though maybe it wouldn't work with a butt as hard as Kagerou's. Hmm.]

Oh. Well, if you're sure.

[He'll go ask her as soon as he can now.]

But I'm not actually a bird... I just have the flight mode of one.

[~~I'm on a whale god?~~]

I don't think I should sit on anything like that. It would break.

[At least he's not the one with butt-circles.]

Yes. I'm sure. There's nothing to see.

[Except an entire discussion on where baby robots come from.]

That's still a bird.

[A bird is a bird is a bird. Even when it's a robot.]

They could be metal eggs. To match!

[And then you won't have to worry about crushing them. You'll have your eggs, Kagerou. Don't worry uvu]

Only in form...

[This is not what he wanted when he mentioned where he was living. Not as planned -- none of it.]

I don't -- I don't need them. It's fine just how it is.

So you can't do bird things?

[But Shadowmaru can sniff and track scents! And use the doggy door.]

Oh. Well, if you sure.

[Yuuta droops a little. So no eggs as housewarming gifts? He'll have to think of something else then.]

Bird... things?

[Haha, Yuuta you assume he actually... knows what birds do. Except for fly.]

Yes, I am--

[Oh, don't make that face.]

-- you didn't really want to bring eggs here... did you?

[Please say no.]

Yeah! Like - sing! And you built a nest! And uhm. I guess you don't lay eggs.

[A shame. 8(]

Well....

[Yuuta shuffles his feet and smiles shyly.]

I was thinking - I wanted to get you something! For your new home. If you'd want!

Sing? I've never tried to.

[Although considering the travesty that happens when Duke and Deckerd try to sing... Maybe he shouldn't.]

No. I don't... have eggs. I already told Kay that.

[There is no force on earth or Cybertron that can make him capable of resisting that face, apparently.]

You do...? Just for building this? I... all right.

Maybe you should try someday!

[Brave Police's hidden talent!]

Ah, well. I guess you'd have to be a girl bird, wouldn't you?

[Technicalities, really.]

R-really?

[Yes! 8'D]

Okay! I'll get you the nicest eggs ever. Just you wait!

[Boss won't let you down!]

I can't think of a reason why I would.

[He makes... he makes a face.]

I would need to be a real bird. I'm not. I just borrow the form.

[And just to complete the bird metaphor, his wings sort of flutter in surprise, when Yuuta's expression suddenly gets so much happier.]

Thank... Thank you. It doesn't need to be anything special...

You never know!

[It's alright, Kagerou. Yuuta and Saejima were probably the only ones who really liked Duke's and Deckerd's uh. Duet.]

Oh. Well that too!

['S a small detail.]

I want to make it special! You're an important member of the Brave Police and a friend!

That's what I keep hearing...

[From everyone. Everywhere. About everything. He's starting to wonder if there's anything he'll know.]

I'm your friend? I...

[Oh. What are these feelings...?]

Thank you... Tomonaga.

[Does that mean he's allowed to call you 'boss'?]

There are many things we've gotta experience to know.

[A wizened nod. It's okay, Kagerou. Trust your boss on this.]

Of course! And you can call me Yuuta. Or Boss! Tomonaga makes me sound like an adult.

I'm trying to. I've tried ever since I got here. Since I had... another chance.

[It's strangely difficult not to trust you, boss.]

Then I will -- Boss.

And how's it been? I know it's not home - but you're doing okay so far? There's a lot to experience here too.

[Yuuta beams and salutes Kagerou.]

I... lived my life contained inside of a building. That day you saw me was one of the first I had ever been outside.

This is not home, no. This is nothing like home... nowhere is.

[Oh. Wait. He got a little... depressing there.]

I... I'm surviving. Trying to learn things.

Ah.

[Yuuta falls silent for a moment. Depressing, indeed.]

I guess that's a good thing! But are you making good memories?

[That's important too.]

I... I'm sorry. I wasn't trying to talk like that.

[Please don't be sad, Boss.]

I'm... making new ones. That's certain.
