"Whelp, last chance Doc." Troilus told Leilani. It wasn't until the path led to a crossroads that they turned to look at each other again.
The two continued their walk in silence for a good amount of time. Leilani let out an exasperated sigh in response. "Not my favorite photo filter." Troilus then playfully mused. "Hard pass." she decided in a stiff tone. The young woman had to look away from her friend as she pursed her lips together. You'd make his day just by breathing in his direction!" Troilus turned to look at her, his eye sparkling with amusement. "We've talked about this Troilus- there's nothing you can do to get me into Doctor Blackwell's lab to bump elbows with the Mighty Numbers." "I think you mean a riot will break out." Leilani retorted with a grimace. "Please come with me Doc, it'll be a riot with you there!" he tried to goad her, despite being distracted by a bird not far off from them. This bot, named Troilus, was one of Leilani's oldest friends, and he had just suggested to her one of her worst nightmares. Beside her, a xel-bot that looked more like a single eye attached to a stick man body made from slim, metal piping didn't seem to notice. A cold chill ran up Leilani's spine, and it wasn't just because of the winter air.
