After the initial birth, mother and daughter were transferred to a regular hospital in Kits Sector. For while the Principal Office has a wonderful emergency room and nursing staff on hand, it is not a place for new mothers and daughters to get some well earned sleep.

Which is precisely what Dot and Mairi are doing, after having hosted a small party of visitors, sprite and binome alike. The office staff had pooled together money to buy her a cake, which didn't really survive more than fifteen nanos around Dot.

But the stream of visitors hasn't ended just yet, despite the limit of visitation microseconds having long expired.

"Hurryhurryhurry!"
"I'm hurryin'!"

Two mookbots anxiously peer around the corner to check if the coast is clear.

"Coast is clear..."
"I don't see nobody."
"Don't see anybody."
"Dats what I said!"

Hack will just smack Slash later..right now, both mookbots roll into the room as quietly as possible.

For them.

"eeeelookit she's so cute and tiny..." Slash bounces up and down a little, hands clicking together faintly.

"Shush it, you'll wake em both up!" Does Slash WANT to wake up the momma bear protecting her cub?

Seriously.

"Sorry."

Sheesh, is it Hack's day to wear the pants in this relationship, or what?

Don't answer that.

"Hey Mairi." One red robotic ball and stickjoint hand comes down to rest very lightly on a tiny hand. "It's great ta finally meetya. You don't know us yet. I'm Hack and he's Slash."

"Hack is da red one, and I'm da blue one, and jus sos you know," A blue robotic hand comes down quietly to hold the other tiny hand. "It's okay if you mix us up and confuse us. Cuz you're little yet and we know you're smart enough to get it somedey."

"And we just wanna say something, from da very heart of our kernels." Hack continues, tapping his talk-plate with a free hand. "We gonna do everyting in our power ta keep you safe, no matter what."

"Cuz your momma right der, she's da best person we ever had the honor of workin' for." Slash says, lifting up the tiny hand now wrapped around his pinky digit and marvelling at it. "She didn't have ta take us in way back den, but she did, and we can't ever tank her enough for it."

"We only been blown up and broken ta pieces twice in all dese hours we been working for her. Your momma treats us like people, like da staff at her office." The redbot flashs quietly, because if he had the ability to smile right now, User and Code he would be nothing but smiles. "So you can zap us, fling us and just play however rough you want wit dose keytool powers of yours."

"Coz we can take it. Me and Hack, we taken way worse, by was less kindly people dan you, yer mom and yer dad." He might be wibbling a bit now. "And we ain't good for much but dat sometimes, but we're gonna do right by you an yer mom, okay?"

"..Just don't grow up on us too fast, okay?" Hack fidgets. Did he just hear one of the nurses? "Cuz we still want ta read storytexts and readme files with you."

"And play ponies and princesses, and take ya ta da energy park every once in a while."

...Dude, Hack is not wearing the pants today, kay?

The legs get all tangled up in the rollerball.

"We better get going, before your mom wakes up."

..Whut? He's allowed to like princesses, right?

"Cuz we don't tink she'd approve of us talking like dis too much."

"We'll see you soon, okay?" With that the mookbots very carefully detangle themselves from little baby hands and roll out of the room, before the nurse comes in to check on Dot and Mairi.

Which is not very long after.

"Mrs. Matrix?" the binome asks softly. "Are you up? The sensors detected increased processing power. Do you need anything?"

"I'm fine, mostly I think I just need a glass of data." She is really, and she's just smiling shaking her head. "I've just always been somewhat of a light sleeper."

"Right away. And how's the little one doing?"

"She's sleeping just fine..." Dot replies, giving the nurse the nod to go and get that drink, while letting Mairi hold onto her index finger and smiling.

"You are going to have the weirdest bodyguards of any little alpha out there..." She murmurs softly before laying down again and holding Mairi close. "They might not be the brightest boys...but they do mean well."
