"it's... okay... you were... scared..." Florence said. The chemicals altered his ability to talk temporarily. He mimicked a bird he'd heard once
-
'Being scared doesn't help anyone,' Collins said, noticing a lock on one of the shackles. She grabbed a hair pin from her satchel and tried to pick it. She'd seen tutorials on YouTube but she'd never down it before, though figured it couldn't be that hard.
-
The shackles clicked open on Florence's second left hand. He remembered the creator added locks secretly so that he could help Florence.
-
Collins grinned. 'But YouTube tutorials do,' she said happily, starting on a different hand.
-
"thank you... for coming back." Florence said as he flexed his fingers. It felt good to have some mobility again after being restrained for a few hours.
-
'What was I supposed to do?' Collins said. The next shackle opened. 'You're my friend. As far as I'm concerned, friends don't leave friends restrained.'
-
"many researchers.... would leave me restrained... for days." Florence said. Hle lifted up his newly freed hand flexing it. He mimicked a happy flute song.
-
'Then they're not your friends,' Collins said. She shuffled backwards so she could reached his legs. 'Just experimenters.'
-
"they were... the only people.... I knew." Florence said. He mimicked the jingling of bells
-
'That doesn't make them friends,' Collins said, hovering her ear above the shackles to listen to the clicking. 'You know what a friend is, right?'
-
"no..." Florence admitted. Friendship wasn't a foreign concept in the lab. He'd heard researchers talking about their friends in the facility but no one ever explained it to him.
-
'A bond between two people, I guess. People who trust each other greatly,' Collins said, and the shackle broke open. She moved on to his other foot, shuffling sideways a bit. 'Or in this case, beings. Because you're not really a person.'
-
"then I had.... one friend... in the facility. The creator..... trusted me... and I trusted him." Florence said. He trusted the creator more than most anyone else in the facility. He mimicked a sweet harp tune when his leg was freed
-
Collins smiled, and when she was done she moved to Florence's third hand and wriggled the pin inside the lock. 'That's good.'
-
Florence stretched out his Left leg, then his right
"The creator.... will come back.... someday.... because..... as he said..... we're family." Florence said recounting what his creator said
