Home For The Holidays (Nova)

[Novocaine]

"IS there anything we can do?" Nova would ask, since she thought this warning was extended to her as well. Neither of them had become Reclaimers yet and it seemed that this brother was strong enough to deal with them.

[Gunslinger]

"If you see him, you fight for your life until you get an opening to escape."

Jack crosses his arms.

"The first thing you should do is contact Prota Command in order to get Reclaimers sent to your position."

[Novocaine]

She meant to help, but, that seemed to be a no.

"Understood."

While she doesn't like feeling like she needs to be protected, she wouldn't go against what's essentially an order.

[Gunslinger]

"It's important you understand why you're being told this, because otherwise, you may think twice about your orders."

Jack glances between them.

"Do you understand why?"

[Novocaine]

"He knows how to undo programmings?" Nova would take a guess.

[Gunslinger]

"Exactly."

Jack points at her.

"And that is dangerous. Extremely so. Therefore, you will not engage unless you absolutely have to. Clear?"

Daniel nods.

[Novocaine]

"Understood." she'd say again, her brows furrowing.

Not having the programming...she'd just get it again, wouldn't she? Not worth the risk, but, she's confident she would do it proudly and willingly again.

[Gunslinger]

"Good."

He nods.

"Now we're going to wait until the rest of the family is here. I'm sure they're being escorted right now, so you two can go relax, but stay in the house."

[Novocaine]

Nova would frown thoughtfully, but push herself up to her feet.

"Who...is this son of yours? How will be know who he is?"

[Gunslinger]

"His name is Terry. He'll have blonde hair, but otherwise look like us. The family resemblance is uncanny."

Jack shrugs.

Daniel frowns, then mumbles to himself under his breath.

"...Terry."

[Novocaine]

Nova nods at the information before looking at Daniel.

"You want to get some space..?"

[Gunslinger]

"Yeah."

He nods, looking up.

Jack gives him a nod, dismissing the two of them.

[Novocaine]

With that, she leads him away to his room. It was likely the most privacy they could get for now.

"Damn. Can't even crack open a window." She'd sigh, taking a seat on the bed.

"An older brother, huh?"

[Gunslinger]

Daniel follows, still somewhat in a daze, before sitting next to her.

"This... this is weird."

To put it mildly.

[Novocaine]

"Do you think you could do the right thing? If you ran into him?" she'd ask, even though she could tell he was still in shock from the whole thing.
