High in the Shrouded Mountains, Nero was getting his share of the pay for the defeat of the Emperor, and rejoicing the safety of Gaia. The cyborg was not exactly celebrating yet, he mourned the deaths of his comrade mercenaries and wasn't in the mood to spend his blood money. He said his goodbyes to the fellow surviving mercs that aided each other in the defeat of the tyrant demon Emperor. He wasn't much of the talking type when amongst people whom he retrieved scars with; almost as if the battles made speech superfluous. And so he boarded his giant mech, The White Glint, and made the trip to his hangar which laid in a desert south of Gaia's border.
The mech warmed up, activating each thruster in succession, then taking off in it's piloted route to the Hangar, where he would uplink SARA back to her home inside his supercomputer to keep her out of his half-mechanical cortex.
"Why do you do it...? It doesn't seem like you fight for the thrill anymore. You do it for something else." SARA relayed to Nero from inside his programming.
"Violence is a complicated concept. I'm a weapon, that's what I was made to do." Nero quipped almost as if he had the answer loaded up before she asked it. His remark was snide, too, and SARA could see past it.
"It's something more. You were born a human with choices. You're not like me. You don't rely on code to do your judging. You have morals just like every other human, no matter how much of a robot you pretend to be." She told him, technically being a slave of Nero's since her whole code was written by him, and also coming from his own programming.
The silver sheen on his eyes made it so his direction of vision was reflected, but his optics provided a two-hundred and three degree clear field of vision, giving him eyes on every statistic Glint's cockpit relayed, including the camera feeds from all around Glint's apparatus. He noticed something on his flight through Gaia, something that had changed from before. Lilith's Bosom was being rebuilt, but different in a way. Other than that, there was a new building next to it. "You see that? I'm going to check it out.... Glint!" He exclaimed, the direction heard by the mech, allowing Glint's A.I. to understand what he meant by just saying it's name. Glint veered downward, slowing it's speed from Mach 3 to a soft glide and eventually to a hover, whereby it landed a safe distance away from the Bar.
The head of White Glint opened horizontally to allow Nero to jump out, landing on the ground with a hard thud, craterizing his bootprints in the softish earth and spreading around what snow littered the ground. "Huh, that's new." He said to himself as he looked up the hill towards the newly built pole building.
No, Nero was no regular. He had merely been invited by a succubus of whom stole his heart and ripped it to shreds, but since her extinction, Nero stops by every now again if he's trying to forget, or if he is just plain bored. He made his way to the doors of the new building, slowly walking through the cold temperatures, some of his joints starting to steam due to the higher temperature of his half-organic body. He stopped at the doors; he was in no hurry, not since the battle with the Emperor still hung heavily in his heart and mind. Soon enough though, he did open the door, revealing himself to all, taking in the warmth of the residence, and remembering many wonderful and disastrous times. He closed the door behind him, maybe making eye contact with a person or two. He would smile at them just to be friendly, as this was a place with the potential of a good time, something that is taken for granted when not living the life of a doom-bringer. He made his way to a seat at the bar, not bringing too much attention to himself but making his presence known. He just noticed that he didn't even know what he wanted to drink; it had been so long since alcohol had even touched his lips.
