[kosmic_angel]

I apologize.

[And that's it. She won't reply.]

KOS-MOS...

not here

[kosmic_angel]

[Sorry Shion, avoiding you and everyone else while she tries to figure out what this feeling is.

Spoiler: it's guilt.]

You just think you can say 'I apologize' without an explanation and think that's okay?

I know you were responding to KOS-MOS, but my name is Shion Uzuki, and it's actually my fault that this happened. Please don't blame KOS-MOS. I know there probably isn't, but if there's anything I can do to try to make it up to you, please let me know. I really am very sorry about this.

[hachitaro]

I just want to know why it happened.

... I'm not even that angry. Just confused.

Maybe a little angry but not that much.

KOS-MOS needs a lot of sensitive equipment for maintenance and recharging, which was not brought to the tower with her. I attempted to rebuild some of those things with parts I gathered from the tower, but it gave her a virus that caused her to systems to perceive every life form as a threat. That is why she attacked.

So, who's fuck up was this?

I've a burning desire to turn that robot into scrap metal so I'd suggest you own up.

[temptestament]

I already took care of that. Leave her be.

[neverbeamemory]

Spoil-sport.

[temptestament]

Am I supposed to care? It's stupid to want revenge on someone who wasn't in control of herself.

[She was hoping to avoid a situation like this. Especially after having to fix the damage Allen did to KOS-MOS...]

I'm afraid it wasn't KOS-MOS's fault, it was mine. So please don't take it out on her. I will do whatever I can to try to make it up to anyone she hurt.

Hurt? Are you kidding?

[More like destroyed not only him, but the one place of sanctuary he's managed to glean from this hell. There is no way he's going to be able to hit the gym until he can block out the ghost-smell of his own death from that floor.

...he hates failure.]

I'll take it out on whatever I need to. I promise.

See if I care.

Axel? Don't tell me KOS-MOS attacked you too...

[surpassthelimit]

What, this is your....thing?

[donttouchthequbeley]

You're a machine. I would blame the puppeteers more, aka, the morons of the tower.

[MIGHT as well answer since KOS-MOS left~]

Apologizing like this is actually a little unlike her, but you're right. It isn't KOS-MOS's fault.

[donttouchthequbeley]

Aside from a machine, just what is she?

[Raphael, having read the other entries and replies before making this, understood the situation now.]

It is alright. However, in the future, please be a little more careful.

..Are you alright now?

[Text]

[uzuki]

KOS-MOS is repaired now, and her functions are normal again.

[Text]

[godheals]

That is good. I am glad to hear it.

[nightfowl]

Might have killed my friends, pardner. But we're all still here in the end. Reckon something wasn't right. With this place screwing with us on a daily basis willing to bet it was out of your control. Not gonna get mad about something out of our control. Water under the bridge.

Not saying what happened was right, but you're still okay in my book.

[uzuki]

I'm glad someone feels that way...

[video]

[seconddaughter]

It's okay... I forgive you, KOS-MOS. I'm sure Shion will, too.

[In a quiet voice, but very sincerely nonetheless. Actually, she's surprised this happened at all, because as much as she believes even V1 was capable of sympathy (that incident in the park helped), it was sometimes hard to tell.]

[video]

[uzuki]

I think she knows that.

[Well, that might not be true... But Shion really hopes she might.]
