"Oh." I frown. It feels rude to be the only one eating, but those nachos.... they call to me.......
-
"Nachos aren't even authentic Mexican. A lot of people think they are." Gold chirped, his ears flicking around. "No one asked me though, did they?" He mumbled, tapping his fingers on the table.
-
Shelby's face symbol turned into a question mark, bobbing up and down subtly. They were slightly annoyed that their question was not really answered, but they kept that to themself. "Zeht? I'm not familiar with that name." They paused, the question mark remaining on their screen. They listened to the small conversation about food, feeling a bit out of place since...they're a literal robot. A sentient robot, but still. "Also, am I the only one here who can't eat?"
-
I walk towards the table, and grab the nachos
-
Fracture shifted his attention to the Robot when they asked the question "no, your not." He said gently, idly ruffling his feathers before returning his gaze to the one that had summoned them
-
"My nachos!" I cry out, looking a bit like a kicked puppy.
-
Mya looked up in confusion. "Why did you steal their nachos??" She asks
-
The alien shifted with discomfort. This was one of their least favorite environments, what with the loud clatter and chatter of the common people painful to their sensitive ears, the light pressing upon their dim eyes. However, it seemed the most welcome environment for his guests. Certainly, their own cave likely wouldn't be as homey as this. Perhaps they had been mistaken.
"Nachos, if I'm correct, are not even original to Earth. They were actually first recorded on the planet you'd know as 'Toussdae'. It was a big scandal, but the earthlings had no way of knowing, so there were no charges pressed." They leaned closer and lowered their voices. "If you ask me, the earthlings did it far better. Nearly everyone thinks so."
The alien leaned back, teetering in the small chair that had been provided for them. "Zeht is my brother and a blight upon my happiness, as most siblings tend to be," they replied to the robot with a sigh. "The favorite, naturally. They always favor the younger. We built this place over the span of many earth years, although he gets most of the credit. A natural businessman. He had the charisma, I had the talent."
The alien inspected their menu again. "It's not food, but there might be other things that will tickle your fancy, I believe the term is? You must run on some sort of fuel, surely. Oil, solar power, electricity. Any of that can be provi-"
They were cut off by the cry for nachos, looking slightly snuffed. They turned their attention to the nacho thief, lifting them off of their feet and dropping them into an empty seat besides the despairing one. "You can share. It appears we have another addition to the company. I don't recall inviting them."
They made a series of clicking sounds in the newcomer's direction, their ears pricked. "Ah. I certainly didn't invite this food thief. I would recognize the face. Regardless, I'm sure they have some use."
They thought for a moment before looking abashed. "I believe I've neglected to ask for your names. I've read your files but nevertheless, how rude of me. What might your titles be?" -
"I- I go by Gold." The little hybrid chirped, ears flick8ng around like satellites. He tilted his head at the clicking noises, but started to fidget again with his chains.
-
"The name that I possess..." he said choppily, clearing his throat. "it's Luke. Call me... Luke. I don't really go by any other nicknames..."
-
"I have many names, in many tongues. In this tongue, the simplest of which would be They Who Fracture The Stars, or Fracture." the fallen angel said calmly, folding his hands in front of himself "though, i believe it is considered equally rude to not introduce yourself.
-
Their face symbol returned to neutral, except now their eyes were full circles, as they looked over at Fracture. "Glad I'm not the only one. I do sometimes wonder what it's like to eat, though." Shelby replied, turning back to the alien when they were spoken to, humming in a digitalized way.
"I do run on electricity. However, it's more like sleeping than eating, since normally I would shut down while doing so." The droid explained, pausing at the cry with a brief exclamation mark. They glanced over at the chaos, switching to a question mark, then returning back to their regular facial expression. "Um, should I be concerned...You know what, nevermind. Er, I'm Shelby, in both English and my native language." -
I make a sound akin to a purr as thief is sat down beside me, taking a chip and popping it in my mouth before any more moves can be made to deprive me of the delicious treat. Satisfied with my food, I turn my attention to the alien and try my best to behave.
"You can call me Atlas!" I say. "What about you?" -
She crosses her arms and leans back in her chair. "my name? Mya." She says, turning a ring around and around her finger.
-
The alien made a series of quiet clicking sounds as each member of the company introduced themselves, their foggy eyes fixed on each face in turn. "Such interesting names," they said after a moment. "Gold, Luke, Fracture, Shelby, Atlas, Mya. I shall do my best to store these names in my memory."
The alien dipped their head in acknowledgement to Fracture's words. "Yes...I suppose that's true, isn't it? I have many titles, but the name of my birth is Xishe. Kzesh-ee, perhaps, would sound more familiar in your tongue," they said kindly. "You are free to refer to me with a different term, unless it is of an offensive nature."
Xishe roughly patted the nacho thief on the back at Shelby's concern. "Not at all, friend. I can reassure you that even if this thief is not entirely harmless, they will surely not be foolish enough to test my patience. I am a kind and gentle being, but not a harmless one." Their eyes twinkled with a pleasant sweetness to them. "Fear not. I have excellent control over my abilities and would not dare to use them for malice."
