X-REX (+X WIZARD, + UFO-X), aka Part 3.5
23/12/24 11:33 (UTC)X Wizard scrolled down, letting the copy of Rinne's list reach the end. "She's a very thoughtful girl. I like her. Passionate, too."
'She's come quite far in the time we've known her,' X-Rex agreed. Adjusting itself slightly to get a better angle on X Wizard's book, it made an approving noise.
'Half of these are books; she hasn't completely changed,' UFO-X pointed out, but there was no dismissiveness in their response.
"Some of this reads more like a bucket list," X Wizard added, tapping one of the entries. "'Visit the North Pole, Fly without transforming or using alchemy, a handmade star chart...' She might have been pulling Professor Fuga's leg with some of these, though. Who needs twenty pastries?"
X-Rex snorted. 'In one sitting?' Before UFO-X could speak up, it added, 'Yes, some of us could do it, but not most humans. And that's beside the point.'
"Then there's this one, for Atropos. And I do want to do something for her-"
'But you're not sure she'd accept it from us.' UFO-X shrugged themselves. 'It's no shaving off of my shell, I'll say that much. That, and it is her - passion project, I suppose?'
'Chosen mission,' X-Rex added. 'And I do think it would be unwise to solve this particular problem for them. We may be needed to help screen the ideas she does come up with, however.'
There was silence for a bit, during which X Wizard scrolled back to the top of the list. At an unspoken cue, the conversation shifted.
'I'm still stuck on 'end sexism in the Alchemist Union'. Is that supposed to be a meme?'
Without looking up, X Wizard replied, "It's a reference, and probably also meant sincerely. This is her well-being we're talking about. And Ichou Renge. And Professor Kyoka. And-"
'All right, all right, you've made your point. But now I ask: how feasible is it?'
'Ending it in one person at a time, perhaps I could do that,' X-Rex contributed. 'Much as it may not be efficient. Still, that's more a long-term project than a gift suitable for next month. What's next?'
X Wizard scrolled down. "'Be treated like a princess.'"
The three of them traded grins, and a bout of more lighthearted plotting began...
