"well now, if you just come with me and retrieve your music box we can get on out of this dusty old laboratory and back to a nice, clean facility." John said Florence flattened his ears to his head and defensively squared his shoulders
-
Collins looked from John to Florence, fiddling with her hands. ‘I don’t think he wants to,’ she mumbled.
-
"little girl, would you mind stepping aside with me for a moment?" John asked to Collins. "I gotta wait here for the creator, and Collins is hanging out with me." Florence said. He mimicked a whistle.
-
Collins looked at Florence, then back at John. 'What he said,' she stated, gesturing to Florence. 'What you can say to me you can say in front of him.'
-
"no, it's a sensitive matter. He could get a little... Heated." John said. Florence cocked his head and mimicked a dog's bark
-
Collins watched John for a moment, before glancing at Florence. She sighed and turned her gaze back to the older man. 'Okay,' she said.'
-
John stepped out into the hallway. Florence has all his wings flattened in concern as he mimicked a machine running
-
Collins looked at Florence apprehensively, before following John into the hallway.
-
John waited until he was out of earshot of Florence then he whispered, "Florence is waiting for a dead man." Florence mimicked an owl in the other room
-
Collins sighed, rubbing her arm. 'I know,' she said quietly. 'I don't know how to convince him he's not still alive.
-
"it's best not to try. If Florence found out Nori wasn't coming back, truly. He would go crazy. The experiments here could barely stand him not living here full time. They can't handle a death." John said. He then coughed, it was dusty there. Florence mimicked the cough
-
Collins looked at Florence, then turned her gaze back to John. 'But isn't it cruel to keep it a secret from him?'
-
"it might be, but it's the best way to keep everyone safe. He's been sitting here alone for 3 years just waiting for him. Imagine what that creature would do if it found out that its creator is not returning." John said. Florence mimicked the coughing again.
-
'3 years?' Collins said. 'That long, just waiting? Why did none of you come sooner?'
-
"we were either scared or we got eaten. It's the only way to repent for the sins of this place. The sins we committed." John said as he looked around at the rotting walls. Florence peaked his head around the corner.
