Ayami joked about having to try out the sleeping pod herself sometime. Zeni wasn't too sure how comfortable it might turn out for people that weren't Androids. But hey, you never know until you try, right? If it was dangerous, she was sure that Gemini or someone else would prevent it from happening. That being said... It seems like the Elfen wasn't expecting Gemini to be able to answer all of those questions in such short order!
Even highlighted in a very exaggerated fashion. " Haha, well, I may not be as energetic as you, but I do have my moments!" , the Scientist teases in response. Ayami didn't let it get to her for too long though, soon hopping back onto her feet with a grin. It seems like Zeni really did end up making an interesting friend. The Elfen breaks the silence by then asking to be taught by Gemini!" Hmm... Something like an Apprentice, then?" , she did seem to be considering it. Especially when Ayami mentioned wanting to be able to amaze everyone with innovation! " Aha, that kind of drive! It's rare these days. Most people just want to do their job and get paid." After that, Ayami asks what all goes on here in the Robotics Lab. Gemini brings a hand to her own chin as she considers how to respond to this question. " Hmm... Tell you what, if you're really curious about it. Work out a day where you have plenty of free time to be here. Then you can experience it firsthand as my student." Okay, maybe she wasn't a Martial Arts Master. But nonetheless it was probably going to be exciting for Ayami to hear! Zeni decides to chime in now. " See? I told you that she might want you to work with her!" Ayami

The calm scientist uttered something unbelievable, almost alien even! the elfen could hardly believe those words...It was like someone saying they had discovered how to travel through time, or that they created an immortality potion! Still the more she thought it over, the more that mental image amused Ayami...She giggled under her breath like someone possessed by a demon of comedy."So that's where Zeni gets it from..."That short respite of amusement aside, it seems Gemini was seriously considering it! The elfen did her best to coax the decision in a positive direction, and as such she...Kept nodding vigorously to all of Gemini's questions."An apprenticeship! Don't worry my Gramma taught me well, I'll behave, just watch and see! And, And I keep notes! I got a notepad! And I made these goggles to help me examine stuff! The lenses can zoom! I intend to put a heads up display in the lenses some day y'know! Nyehehe!"Her enthusiasm was as boundless as her energy. If the rest of capsule corp had even a fraction of that kind of positive rythm, they'd probably be five years further ahead of the curve on innovation. The elfen could only grin proudly, bringing her hands to her hips as the scientist praised her forward driven attitude in regards to innovation. She gave another overly enthusiastic nod, wasting no time in commenting on what Gemini had to say."Not me! I don't care about money, I just wanna make things for the world to admire! That's what creation's all about right?!"While it was beyond easy for anyone to say they weren't in it for the money, the way the elfen said it, as well as her genuine smile as she did so made it clear that the words she chose were truthfully how she felt about it all. She wasn't lying when she told people inventing was a passion of hers. She was always striving to improve, to make the next great machine, to try and reach every peak in every field she could afford to explore. Being able to work with Capsule Corp... It would open a floodgate of opportunity for her. THAT was why she didn't care about profit. Even just the potential to reach all new heights was enough to drive her.And this motivation is why when Ayami was offered a chance to shadow Gemini on a free day, she absolutely couldn't contain herself. Her excitement and cheer burst out like a bomb going off, and she began to bow repeatedly to Gemini, practically smiling from ear to ear. There was only one answer..."Thank you! Thank you!!! You don't know how much this means to me!!! I've been dreaming of this day for a VERY long time!"Tears of joy began to fall from her eyes. To others it may have seemed overly dramatic, but to her? She had just been offered a "big break". The opportunity that seemed so far away was now in her hands. She couldn't keep herself from crying because...A dream had been achieved. At least...Partially."You were right Zeni! You were so right...!!! Meeting you was the best thing that's ever happened to me!!!"Zeni's assessment was correct — Well, almost..."Exciting" was an understatement! The elfen grabbed Zeni and quickly pulled her into a tight hug, lifting the android quite easily off of the floor as Ayami cried into Zeni's shoulder happily! Ayami was nothing if not a veritable well of emotions... Zeni

Gemini couldn't help but smile as Ayami commented on how that 'must be where Zeni got it from'. While the Elfen might have heard the Android refer to the Scientist as Mother, Gemini returned the sentiments, thinking of the Android as her Daughter. So it only made sense that Mother and Daughter would be alike, no? Without even realizing it, Ayami had just gotten into the good books with Gemini.
After that, the Elfen proceeds to give an impressive resume. So she already had experience behaving as a student for someone else. She knew when to behave, and how to take notes. She was even working on her own inventions! Everything about Ayami just screamed positive enthusiasm. Which was exactly the kind of people that Capsule Corp needed. She even followed up with saying that she wasn't interested in the money.
And normally, that might be a red flag... But she could tell that Ayami meant it. This was the type of girl that probably spent her hard-earned money in her own pursuits. Even if no one asked her to do it, and it certainly wasn't for fame either. That would just be a side effect. This was her passion. How could Gemini recognize it? Easy, because it was the same one she had! " Good! Hold onto that passion of yours. You'll go far here." Soon after that, Ayami began to bow repeatedly, thanking Gemini profusely in the process. The Scientist just waved it off. " Now now, you don't need to be so formal! You're very welcome, though." Still, it seemed like this was a very touching and personal moment for Ayami, who was practically reduced to tears of joy. It didn't take her too long to hug Zeni, and the Android gladly returned the gesture! " Aww, I feel the same way about meeting you!" Gemini couldn't help but smile at the sight unfolding before her.

Hold onto her passion...Yes, that was what she wanted! Gemini was right. With her passion the elfen would be able to reach all of her dreams! And with friends like these...They'd be able to fill in all the gaps!"I'm not ever gonna let go of my passion! You can count on me!"Although...Hearing Zeni say what she did...Ayami definitely felt a little embarrassed. And her face showed it too. Her cheeks were flush with a burning red...She wasn't really used to compliments like that. She let go of Zeni after carefully putting the android back down on the floor. Her blush was drowned out by her smile and watery eyes though, truth be told. The elfen girl sniffled, rubbing her nose."Sorry...I'm just really happy."The mechanic girl wiped her eyes dry and with one last sniffle finally calmed down, still smiling brightly enough to power a city. She was very excited now that she had a chance to show her skills in a professional environment!"I dunno if I'll be able to wait! This is the best!!!"As the excitement died down however, there was one last question on her mind, and if they were going to have a complete tour it only stood to reason that Ayami wanted to see HER too..."Where's Athena? I'd love to meet her too! After all we ARE in robotics...And after Zeni's told me so much about her I just GOTTA introduce myself!"It seems that nothing slowed her down much. She went from crying to relaxed in just mere moments without wasting any time to speak of! She couldn't really be blamed though. After all Zeni's parents sounded very interesting, and with Athena being an older model android the elfen was practically climbing over herself wanting to examine the differences between Athena and her daughter Zeni. Chances are the differences would be great and yet...Not so much at the same time."She won't mind if I look her over right? Uh...I don't mean anything bad! I'm just amazed by them! Really Zeni is incredible! I'm sure Athena is too!" Zeni

Gemini smiles and gives a nod as Ayami swears not to give up her passion. Good, as long as she held onto that, then anything was just within reach for the Elfen. It was only a matter of sticking to it. And of course, Zeni was going to be right there to help! " That's the spirit!" , the Android voices her approval.
Ayami takes a moment to compose herself, and apologizes about getting as emotional as she did, but really it was quite understandable! It was a huge opportunity, especially for someone that was truly giving their all to something like this. " It's quite alright! It's rather refreshing to meet someone that shows how much they care, honestly." The Elfen then voices that she might not be able to wait at this rate. True, she didn't seem the most patient of types. But seeing such youthful energy was pretty charming in it's own right. Besides, Gemini couldn't say anything bad about that... She used to be the same way! In a lot of ways, she was still just as eccentric. After all that however, Ayami also brings up that she is interested in meeting Athena." Oh, she should actually still be in the Robotics Lab!" , Zeni comments, then looking over to Gemini who simply gives a nod in response. When Ayami asks if it would also be alright to look Athena over while assuring she didn't mean anything bad..." Well, I don't mind if you do. But be sure to ask her as well. She's a little different from Zeni, but she's friendly nonetheless." , Gemini explains. She then points them in the right direction to go in order to find Athena in the Lab.
Zeni begins to lead the way once more! Fortunately it wasn't going to be a very long trip. It was a big place, but not so huge that it was labyrinthine or anything like that. Ayami

Ayami grins, giving Gemini a bright smile and a salute!"Seeya later doc!"And so it was time to continue their tour as they went further into the robotics lab to find the older model android named Athena. Ayami...Wasn't sure what to expect honestly. Zeni had told her a lot, but unlike Gemini Ayami honestly didn't know how to read Athena's "type". There was no doubt she was friendly, as Gemini even confirmed. But it was clear her purpose was different from Zeni, she may have processed emotions differently. Would she be annoyed by Ayami's prying? The elfen took a deep breath, hoping her concerns were unfounded...... But now was a good time to get a feel for her personality before they met. And no one was going to know Athena better than her own daughter! The elfen girl leaned in towards the android, speaking up as they walked."So...Your other mom. Athena...What is she like? She's not a health care companion right? Does she...Think like you do?"Ayami caught herself as she said that, feeling maybe what she said might have been a little rude... The elfen rubs the back of her neck just below her hair, quickly correcting herself"Er, sorry I just mean... Does she process emotion and thought in a different way? I've gotta admit, I didn't think an AI could develop itself... Even if she's a little older she must still be pretty top of the line!"Not an absurd assessment considering Athena literally gained sentience without any purposeful outside influences. Zeni was absolutely advanced in her own way of course! But reaching thought through one's own effort...Ayami honestly couldn't comprehend what that must be like, even as she tried very hard to imagine it herself."She must be incredible! I bet you really look up to her huh? Does she take care of you or teach you anything?"All valid questions. If Zeni considered Athena to be her mom there were likely more reasons than simply a symbolic one. Ayami considered her own family, and thought of how her Grandmother took care of her and passed knowledge down to her. Maybe these two androids were similar?Either way, soon enough the elfen girl caught sight of someone nearby! That someone seemed to stand out, so Ayami grinned and waved to them."Hey Zen, is that her? HI ATHENAAAA!"... They were still indoors so calling out was fairly uneccesary. But the elfen didn't exactly have an inside voice... Zeni

As they started venturing deeper into the Lab, Ayami couldn't help but show some of her curiosity and start asking questions about Athena. The first of which was whether or not she was a healthcare companion, and if she thought the same way that Zeni did. The Elfen seemed a little sheepish about that after the fact, apologizing and rephrasing. " No, it's a fair question!" , Zeni assured her. " To start off with, no. Her original use was not to be a Healthcare Companion. It was for a very different use, she was intended as a Combat Android for the Military. That's a function she can still serve out." , she then explains." She doesn't process on the same level that I do. Or... So she and Gemini say. But she can definitely still feel, and emote. Her AI was set to learn so that it could be better from each battle she was in. But it covered more than just that!" , Zeni continues to elaborate for Ayami. " I think I mentioned that before, though. Basically, what resulted from her project was not intentional -- but it was very intentional for me!" After that, the Elfen asks if she looked up to Athena, and whether or not she was taught anything by her. Zeni smiles as she begins to reply. " I do look up to her, yes! And she's taught me a lot of things! Especially how to fight, and the effective ways to take down an uncooperative target! To be honest, I don't even hold a candle to her in battle." , Zeni then pauses for a brief moment. " But every time I get discouraged, she just always tells me that she's stronger now, but I have better potential." Soon enough, they spot someone deeper in the lab, with Ayami taking the initiative to greet them in a rather loud way. The woman with long blue hair was fiddling with something on a desk at the time, but she sets the tools down and looks over at the voice. " That reminds me of Zeni..." The woman comments, mainly to herself. Although she wasn't as expressive as Zeni, you could at least tell that she didn't seem to be annoyed. " Yep, that's her!" Ayami

Combat android...So that was what Athena was designed for. No more than that, she was still capable of being one. This was...Surprising to the elfen. A combat android that was able to think and feel...Able to act as a mother for someone else. Perhaps robots weren't as straight forward as people liked to believe. Both Zeni and Athena were so much more than their programming. In some ways maybe androids were even more varied than organic beings."Made for war...I hope she never has to fight again."... That...Was an odd thing for Ayami of all people to say. She was so obsessed with tournament fighting. But...She knew there was a difference between fighting for fun, and fighting to the death. She never wanted anyone to be forced to fight. And growing up in an era where people didn't, well... She was naive when it came to war."I swore an oath to myself. For as long as I live I'm never gonna fight anyone to the death!"Ayami stopped for a second, taking both of Zeni's hands into her own as she looked the android in the eyes."We should take that oath together! You an' me we're different from the others! We fight for others, an' that means sparing our opponent right?"The elfen smiles, waiting to hear Zeni's response, and then releasing her grip afterwards. No matter how Zeni answered Ayami would be satisfied... But she hoped the pair would have an oath to bond over too! That aside, something about what Zeni said was curious to the elfen girl. Athena couldn't process emotions on the same level as Zeni, but she learned from her experiences..."Well...Maybe if you share your experiences with her she'll be able to see things just like you do!"Realistically it was probably a limitation of technology...But Ayami wasn't going to be told otherwise! She grinned brightly. Besides, even if it didn't improve anything, the idea of those two androids bonding really warmed the elfen's heart."Better potential huh? Well I certainly see that! You know what this means dontcha? You've gotta reach the very top and show Athena your full potential!"Still...Ayami was thrilled to meet Athena as they finally came across the older android! The elfen rushed over to Athena, smiling like a kid in a candy store."Hi! You must be Zeni's mom! My name's Ayami! I'm an inventor! I LOVE ROBOTS!!!"She reached out to shake the older model's hand, if allowed to do so shaking it with lots of vigor! She was curious to know just how Athena would process this encounter, and well...She wanted to know something else too."Soooo...Can I take a closer look at ya?!"Ayami smiled, waiting for a response from the combat droid.

It was about then that Ayami made a comment about hoping that Athena never had to fight again. Zeni was a little confused by it, but at the same time understood where the Elfen was coming from. Being forced to fight was a bad thing, but on the other hand... " Don't worry! No one tells Athena what to do anymore, she decides for herself. Including when to fight!" After having said that, Ayami suddenly turns all of her focus to Zeni, and makes it clear that for as long as she lives, she won't fight anyone to the death. She then asks the Android to take that same oath with her. Fortunately, she doesn't have to think about it too long before smiling as she gives her response. " I like that oath... I think I'd like to follow it, too." A part of her wondered what might be able to push her to break that oath. There were a few things that crossed her mind. But there was no sense in worrying about them right now either. The Android casts her doubts aside as she makes the oath right there with Ayami. After that, the Elfen suggests that Zeni shares her experiences with Athena. " Hey... Maybe I could do that, yeah!" With that, Ayami then points out that Zeni simply has to reach her full potential, to show it to Athena! The Android wanted to go even farther than that, of course. She'd like to show what her fully developed self is like to Gemini, to Ayami, and to Hono too! They were the most important people in her life so far!
Finally however, it was time to properly introduce Ayami to Athena. The Elfen starts off by extending a hand for a handshake. The older Android accepts the gesture. " You do? What makes them so fascinating to you?" , Athena asks, a little curious as to the answer. Fortunately she didn't seem to be bothered by the vigorous handshaking either.
Nor by the question that followed. " You can if you wish. I don't see any harm in that." , she then adds. Ayami

Zeni insisted that Athena chose of her own free will when to fight. Given the corporation she was under the care of, it didn't really surprise the elfen too much, but...She was relieved to hear that too. Ayami loved martial arts because she chose it of her own free will. It was a passion, not something she had to do to survive. While her responses might have been a little surprising, if Zeni knew passion, she would likely be able to come to that conclusion on her own.
It was to that end that seeing and hearing the android take up the oath so close to the elfen's heart made her happy. — Well...Happier anyway. She grinned just like she always did."Great! The two of us will make it to the very top without any o' that death stuff, I promise!"Ayami was even happier still that she could give Zeni advice that not only helped, but motivated her too! The two were a lot alike, so having someone wuth a drive just like hers...In a lot of ways it boosted the elfen's motivation just as much if not MORE so.Of course, Ayami was excited to meet Athena too! The older model's grip was pretty firm! The elfen made note of that, recognizing that it's probably a part of Athena's functions. Although what Ayami hadn't planned for was to be asked questions! She rubbed her chin, carefully thinking over how best to address Athena and answer her question...Why did the elfen find robots fascinating? Well..."Because through the miracle of technology they've been given life of their own! Isn't that incredible? Well...Of course you'd think so, but you know! A long time ago the closest we could get were cybernetics. But you two...You're clean slates, able to make your own choices!"That was the honest truth poured out from the elfen girl's heart. This was really how she felt. As much as she didn't want to treat these two differently, there was simply no denying that creating life from nothing should be impossible for mortal man. For something like this to be within their grasp...It showed an entire new path open to not just the world, but the galaxy as a whole.Thankfully the older model android was fine with being observed...Ayami dropped her goggles down lver her eyes, zipping from place to place looking at Athena from several angles!"Visible joints...Optic sensors, uh...Shiny. Oooo...Are those pneumatic servos? Nice, niceeee...I wouldn't have imagined you could apply one of THESE like that!"... The elfen girl was mumbling to herself and scribbling furiously on her notepad as she looked Athena over carefully."Sorry, can you lift your arms for a sec?"An odd request, but it would make sense in due time!

The Elfen then promised that they would get to the top of power without having to deal with any of that death stuff! Zeni was a little relieved to hear that. She thought about things logically just as much as she was emotional, but she had to admit that the 'nerves' were calmed about knowing that she might not ever have to take another person's life. " Good! Then we'll stick to that oath!" , she then adds.
But now! The focus had turned to Athena. The older model listened intently to Ayami's reasoning. Actually finding it rather logical in it's own way. A celebration of new life? Perhaps that wasn't a bad way of looking at it at all. " I see... I like that answer." , Athena admits, finally producing a small smile. And sure enough, she proved to be cooperative to whatever it was that Ayami wanted to look at.
It was quite impressive to see her scribbling details into that notepad with such speed. She was definitely passionate about this. After all that though, Ayami then asks if Athena could lift her arms. This prompts the Android to raise a brow, but she nonetheless complies with the request, seeing no harm in doing so.
Meanwhile, Zeni just watches all of this play out... It was so interesting to see Ayami get into the zone like this! And in the process, she had just unknowingly impressed both of Zeni's mothers! Ayami

Ayami hated to admit it, but...She was a little taken aback by Athena's answer. She really thought it was a good response? The elfen wasn't entirely sure how to nail down Athena's likes and dislikes, but...It seemed like at the end of the day straight forward and sentimental things were definitely a positive for this older model android."Ya really think so? It only seems natural to me so I'm glad to hear you say that!"Athena being so cooperative was definitely a plus for the curious Elfen girl. Being able to check her over unhindred really provided some interesting results! Ayami took a finger and carefully checked the inner side of Athena's arm, looking it over for any kind of military markings. She doubted the android would have held onto such things, but she wanted to note down as much as possible! Although the writing slowed down as Ayami eventually stood up, removing her goggles and placing them right back on her forehead where they belong!"Well Miss Athena! I've seen all I need to see! You're really somethin'! I can see where Zeni gets all of her looks from!"The elfen chuckled playfully, clearly joking about that last part. But she was being completely honest regarding Athena herself, she was amazingly put together, so much more solid and cold then Zeni, and yet...She didn't feel inferior. In a lot of ways Ayami could see exactly where design ideas were incorporated into the newer model android, even just from a cursory glance like this! No wonder she was viewed as Zeni's mother. Though with that all set aside...It was time for questions!"So! What exactly do you do here at Capsule Corp Athena? Being a former military android I can make a few guesses but I er...Don't really wanna be presumptous either. Do you like it here? And what do you think of Gemini?"Ayami smiled, waiting patiently for Athena's responses. Zeni

Although Ayami was certainly eccentric, it was pretty easy to tell the kind of person she was at heart, and that was what had most impressed Athena. She didn't even hesitate to think that she and Zeni were truly alive, capable of feeling and thinking for themselves. And instead of being frightened by the prospect -- like many were, she just thought it completely natural. Honestly, it was both surprising and a breath of fresh air for her. " You're an interesting woman, Ayami." The Elfen was very thorough in her examination, but true enough there were no longer any military markings on the older Android. The closest was actually the Capsule Corp branding. Seems like she really did leave that whole life behind and lived a free life now. Even if most of her time was spent here working with Gemini and looking after Zeni, it didn't seem like that bothered her in the slightest. Ayami also pays her a compliment in terms of her appearance. Athena crosses her arms, but doesn't look particularly mad about it either. " I've had people comment on my appearance before. You were very respectful about it." After that, Ayami then asks a few key questions. Perfectly valid ones that prompted Athena to think over her reply. " My work varies. I can work security detail, but practically no one causes trouble at Capsule Corporation. Most of the time I'm here in the Robotics Lab." She pauses for a moment. " As for if I like it here, I do. Some people are still a little cautious around me, but most people are used to me at this point. It feels like a home to me." , she answers, which left only one question in the list to address. " As for Gemini... I think she is an amazing woman. She's done a lot to help me and others. And her work on that continues even now through Zeni." Athena then looks over at the Android she just mentioned. The comparatively younger model just gives a bright grin in response. If she was intended to be a healthcare companion, the method in which Gemini wished to help people became rather clear. Ayami

The elfen's eyes widened as Athena paid her a very blunt compliment. It wasn't one Ayami got very often — If at all. Most people thought she was weird or quirky. But what they saw as weird, she saw as enterprising, innovative, free thinking. So to hear Athena not say she's weird, but interesting...It caused the elfen mechanic to stumble a little bit."H...Haaahhh? Me? Interesting? I wouldn't call myself interesting, but...Thanks."Ayami smiled at Athena, a bright warm smile showing that despite her surprise she really did appreciate the compliment. Whether Athena could recognize the warmth in that smile or not, it didn't matter...What mattered was that the older model seemed to accept the elfen! Although Athena's comment about her appearance was...Strange! Others had complimented her looks before? Were they less respectful than Ayami was? Was Athena's appearance a touchy subject for her? The elfen was at the very least relieved she hadn't crossed a line somewhere, and so decided not to pursue just what Athena meant. Perhaps another time...For now! The answers to all of Ayami's questions came rolling in!"Lab work? So you're an assistant to Gemini! That must have taken some getting used to...A-Adjusting and all I mean!"So Athena saw this place as a home just like Zeni did...Well that made sense all things considered! This lab had everything she needed to care for herself, and with Zeni and Gemini here it wasn't like she needed to go elsewhere to see family. Her thoughts on Gemini made sense too, although Ayami was surprised by just how eloquently Athena worded that answer of hers. Every bit of that statement showed genuine respect for Gemini, and even some for Zeni it seemed! Ayami glanced over at the newer model as she smiled at Athena. The elfen could honestly only really grin at that silent exchange, it was pretty adorable..."Thanks Athy! You've been super helpful, I got a LOT of great info today! I'm glad I got to meet you, too!"Just then a pleasant chime rang out over the corporation's intercoms followed by a robotic female voice which seemed to be going over the daily news, after which it got to the current time."The current time is now 2:30 PM. Partly cloudy skies with a cool temperature of 58 degrees farenheit, 14 degrees celcius. Next week is bring your child to work day, if you or a fellow employee-"The mention of time caused the elfen girl to perk up, quickly checking the watch on her wrist! Oh how time flues! She only had 2 hours left before she had to meet back up with her brother!"Well I think we'd better continue our tour Zeni! There's a lot more of this place to see right? I wanna check it all out!"Ayami smiled to the android. She didn't really wanna rush things since she was enjoying her time here, but she'd REALLY regret it if she let a full tour of her dream work place slip through her hands! Zeni

It seems that the compliment that Athena gave threw Ayami off-balance. But she thanked the Android for it nonetheless, which prompted her to give a nod. " Of course, Ayami." , she replies. Athena also noted the very genuine smile that the Elfen had. It did seem like she didn't receive comments like that very often. In that way, she could kind of understand Ayami. A lot of things were said, but usually not the most kind or polite things. So it was a nice change for both of them, it seems.
With that, Ayami then moves the conversation along to the kind of work that Athena does, and comments that it sounds like the Android functions as an Assistant, and wondered if that might take some adjusting. " That's a pretty good way to put it. As for adjusting... It did take some getting used to. But that's true of all changes, even the positive ones." , she admits, clearly not taking any offense from what Ayami was saying.
Ayami proceeds to thank Athena for the conversation, and all the helpful info she was able to get as a result. " You're welcome, Ayami. I hope the rest of your day goes well." , with that, the older Android returns to the work she was doing before. Just then, the intercoms chime alive and notify everyone of the time, temperature, and upcoming events.
This was important, because... Just as the Elfen pointed out, it was time to get going on the rest of their tour! " Right! Let's get to the highlights then!" , with that, Zeni gently grabs Ayami's hand once more and begins to lead the way! First stop was the Spaceship Development Hangar. And that was a pretty massive place in it's own right. Right now, most of the models marked fit for sale were space pods. But you could see them busy working away at other, much larger models too.
And true to Zeni's words, they intended to get some modifications up and running too. You could have a fully decked out spaceship of your very own one day! Earth was hitting it's proper Space Age now, thanks to Capsule Corp!" So here's where we work on all of the ships! And everything we have planned to go into that lineup too." There was certainly a lot to take in. And there was plenty more to check out in Capsule Corporation... Like how Capsule Research and Development functioned! All of their various technological departments that produced items such as Scouters! There was a lot that Zeni and Ayami could check out. And with them now focusing on the tour proper... Ayami Notes: Feel free to cover other parts of the tour with your post(s) if you want!
