Nexus and Auspex's reality. Park by the sign and the sanctuary. Enter Bob

[gentle_seekers]

There's a flash and an explosion over the Nexus... and very few people look up other than to ascertain that whatever just went boom isn't coming down on their heads. It's not, so they go about their business as though nothing has happened.

Whatever it is streaks toward the park and leaves a smoking crater as it hits.

And a soft, wordless alarm call sounds in a certain priestess's spark.

He shivers inwardly as he hears the two female presences talking, then sighs as the bigger presence reassures him that no one wants to hurt him.

He relaxes, but then jags with pain as the rapid healing of his body wipes away the sedation program that had been used on him. All his senses snap into being and a groan breaks from him as his fists- both whole now- clench with pain.

-Just give it a minute,- says the one female. -Really, just a mo, we can totally fix this, and you're gonna be fine. Really, really!-

-Suck it up, Bob,- the other says softly, the words accompanied by a gentle mental push. -Yer gonna be fine, b'y. 'N yer safe here. Me 'n my boss won't let nobody hurt ye. Neither'll Auspex.-

-Then why are you both scared?- he whimpers, his jaw clenched as the awareness of the damage he's suffered becomes more acute.

-Because I'm gutless,- says the jittery one. -Uh... there. That should take care of the pain....-

He relaxes. -Why are you calling me Bob?-

-Well, what is yer name?-

-I... don't know.-

-Bob it is! :D-

Bender watches the healing through the glow, and the peace that gradually grows on the seeker's face, then looks up and around at Auspex. If he actually had a face he'd be going '0_o?'

*Auspex hisses as the seeker's pain flares again. She takes a few steps forward, attempting to make her presence - and Primus' - known to the mech*

*She looks back at Bender, giving a little helpless shrug. This is not something she's accustomed to seeing, either. The spiritual part, she can sense and understand, but much of it is unfamiliar technology at work. His difficulty in making sense of this is most probably the reverse of hers; still, the reaction is much the same. This is something out of the ordinary, on all counts.*
