*Nana would make a journal entry, via keyboard only as she walked back to the tower. She would be done just before getting to the base of the tower. Nana had to walk around to the front where the doors and Proto were*
--_--
That's all...... thank you Zio.

Zio: Very well. *The keyboard would disappear first* Good night, Lady Nana. *The screen would vanish all together now*
Proto: *Knowing that Nana was outside, Proto looked up for a moment, and then moved over to the door. As Nana prepared to open the door herself, she would find that it would open anyway and Proto standing aside the door, saluting, to let her pass*

*Nana looks up, seeing Proto. It seemed so depressed when there were six losses in Sho's unit. What must the automation be feeling now? Sacrificing four more of its "brothers" just to protect Nana and Twilight from Zenogais. Proto may have been saluting, but was it cross with Nana under its mask of calm? Nana wanders into the tower without a word, but stops short a few seconds later. Was she waiting for something? Perhaps she was deep in thought*

Proto: *When Nana was fully inside, Proto let the door close quietly. He quickly noticed that Nana was being unusually quiet, so it was only curious. A few beeps of curiosity and perhaps worry sound off from the semi mute bot*

*There were a few more moments of silence, before Nana finally said anything. She posed an odd question to the robot, well at least odd coming from her. In a way she sounded a lot like Thanatos at the moment*
--_--
Proto.......... Do you hate me?
*Obviously Nana wondered about it. Afterall, as Zenogais had said, a fraction of a second was like an eternity to a robot. All the thinking, and sorrow that must have gone through the prototype's mind, seemed almost un-imaginable. Four lives, to save two. The move had saved her, and Twilight but left Proto devistated once again. So, did Proto hate her for having caused four more deaths of the machine's own kin?*

Proto: *The bot just blinked at the question. Indeed it was a most odd question, since Proto hadn't the slightest idea where it had arisen from. Still, how could he answer such a question. Nana wasn't even looking at him, and all he did was beep. So that's what he did. Proto let off a few beeps of protest and shook his head, should Nana turn to see it*

*Nana was still turned away, her head still pointed as if looking to the floor. She had heard the "beeps of protest" from Proto, but still she really just needed to know. Finally Nana turns toward Proto to look into the robotic eye of the automation*

It's just... Zenogais had said, that even a fraction of a second was like an eternity to those who were robotic. So how could you not be cross with me, having to sacrifice four of your "brothers" just to protect me? Zenogais had also told me it was you, who had done that. So... I wanted to thank you, but now... I can't help but think that you must feel so disappointed in me, and depressed at the loss of more of your family. So... that's why I want to know...

Proto: *The bot could really do little to show Nana the extent of its "feelings" at the moment. He wished that Than were here to translate, but he would have to do without him. Proto beeps in continuous form, seeming to go into some sort of minature explanation. Either way, he shook his head and waved his hand from side to side in a manner that said no and in a sort of dismissing manner*

*Nana looks up at Proto for a moment as he seems to wave it off. she still looked distrought and sad. After taking in what he hopefully meant, Nana looks to the floor again, then walks right up to Proto and with little warning like before, gives the machine a hug. Nana's voice was still a little shaky, but Proto should be able to understand*
v_v
Still... I'm so sorry Proto. I didn't want to force you to make that kind of decision. I never want to force you into making that kind of decision... So... if ever you are cross with me... I'll more than understand.... and again.... I'm sorry.

Proto: *Proto seemed less taken aback this time by the motion. He actually lightly returned the gesture, though he still didn't completely embrace Nana, for his edges would still be uncomfortable to be hugged by. After doing this, Proto stood back a bit, let off a few more beeps, and pats Nana on the head*

*Being pat on the head, by her own robot did seem a little odd, but after a moment or two she cracks a weak smile for Proto. She steps back a bit, her eyes still closed, but at least she'd got the message*

All right.... I think I understand.

Proto: *The robot removed his hand from her head, and, in a show that he was indeed changing, gives Nana a thumbs up with a few more of his ever famous, light hearted beeps*

All right, all right, I get it. I'll stop by again soon if I'm able, all right Proto?
*Feeling that Proto, didn't hate her Nana with fresh resolve waves a little then starts toward the elevator. Now with at least that out of the way, she had to go to Mastema, if she wanted to at least try and get Twilight's weapon back for him*

Proto: *The bot waved back and then returned to his post. There was nothing more to do but guard.... like usual. And, of course, he could start thinking again*

*Nana calls the elevator then boards. Thinking about what to say, how to ask, that's what Nana was questioning on her wayup the tower. What if Mastema said yes, and what if he said no. She would try to gather her courage, for Twilight's sake. It would take about a minute or so to ride the elevator to floor ninety-eight*
