What about you, Ashe? Wealthy asked. When he saw the cat, she was passed out over her pancakes.
She doesn't look up to it, so I guess we'll be going home. Wealthy said.
Wealthy, I think it'd be a good idea to interact with other pets. You should go with Dust for now, I'll get Ashe back home. John said.
Oh, okay. I guess I'll see you guys later then. Wealthy said. He turned to Dust. Are you ready? he asked.

I don't know if this is the job for me, Mrs. Kelly. Orion replied tiredly.

Noah and James muttered to each other deciding what to do. They finally finished and opened the mail slot. Deal. Now what's the weak point?

Kelly immediately moves to help Orion to the chair.
"Here. Sit down. Are you feeling okay? Can I call anybody for you or get you anything?" she queries, concerned.

"I guess so." Avery agreed with her, smiling. Then his eyes widened.
"Oh, carp! I'm gonna be late... Man... Sorry, but I have to get to my interview. I'll see you guys around. You should stop by my Dad's shop, he'd love to meet you guys." And with that he waved before running down the street again.

Jemmy located the terminal control panel. "It does not matter how much safe can be a single apartment against external intrusions. Apollo City is like a ship orbiting around earth. It is surrounded by vacuum." he said to the fox.
Much like he had done in Vi's apartment, the anidroid cut off a portion of the wall under the panel. "There are standard safety protocols that every single apartment, at all levels, must follow for the safety of their occupants. One of them, being AEP, Automatic Evacuation Protocol, in case the sensors in the building detected an atmospheric leak inside an apartment, at the same time a breach in the city barrier happened." Jemmy applied his finger to a juncture. "It is a rare occurrence, and there are many safety measure to prevent it from happening, but it is a possibility nonetheless. Mr. Atlas conceived a good system, but of course his engineers didn't imagine someone would forcefully tell such system that an AEP must be enforced without authorization codes. Like this." A single, perfectly calibrated pulse...
And every door in the building opened! Sirens started blaring and the emergency lights went on.
Jemmy put the panel back into the wall. He inserted the commands for 'CEASE DRILL', and the emergency protocol was shut down.
Jemmy walked back to the Walkers' and stood in front of the open door. "May I in, now?"

The Walkers looked at the open door with a combination of amazement and horror. Not much we can do to stop you from coming in now so you might as well. Although doing what you did was a VERY bad idea. That went off through the whole building, so it's gonna draw a LOT of attention. It's gonna be on the news in less than a half an hour. Not to mention that it was highly illegal, so you're likely to get arrested. Yea, in fact, I'm a police dog. Noah said, showing the little light up badge in his palm that's standard for police cypets with cybernetic hands. Every single bit of the training I took is screaming to arrest you right now, but I'm too scared of you too do it. If the authorities ask us about what happened, we will tell them about what you did. You and your owners are going to be in some deep trouble.

Annette chuckled wearily as she turned and began to walk again towards the diner. At the very least she could get something to eat, even if there was to be no meeting.

Very suddenly, as if he were startled, Caeruleus sat bolt upright on Annette's shoulders as his many social media connections began to ping, inundating him with messages of how some apartment building somewhere had suddenly burst into noise as it's safety protocols began to activate, and then shut down. The droid began to speak, reading off these relentless reports to his owner, as per his programming, "'Hey, what gives!' 'Ugh, siren woke up my baby. Thought this place ran a tighter shift.' 'Is there really an emergency? There aren't any drills scheduled for this week...' 'My apartment just started blew up! Made me drop my cake too!'..." and so on, he read aloud, "Video, captioned: 'who is that????' thumbnail shows a blurry figure in front of a control console for a building. Post has six likes and one comment, 'That's my building!!!!!'... To view this post, please connect me to a Visual User Interface..."

Annette stopped in her tracks and stared at the little droid sitting placidly on her shoulder, "Consolidate and analyze all of the data you're getting, give me periodic updates." she commanded

The rat droid shut his mouth and put on a pensive face to reflect his AI engine's hard work. This event troubled everyone in his social nets, so he too was concerned, "I think people are scared... Mom." he said, testing out that title

It was then that Vi raised her hand, feeling a bit left out of the conversation, and feeling slightly obligated to cover for her newfound friend.
"If I may interject, I'm not sure I saw Jemmy do anything wrong, technically." She shrugged and placed a paw on the genet's shoulder.
"He was just doing his job after all, with the consent of all parties involved. After a verbal deal was struck Jemmy simply complied with the terms of agreement." She grinned her smartypants grin that tended to annoy most recipients and plowed on with her reasoning. Silently she thanked Kat for making her watch Suits with her.
"And Jemmy, as I have learned recently, has some thingamajig that makes it so he obeys direct commands. So as far as I can tell, the person who gave the command was at fault, and Jemmy, doing his service as a droid, simply did what he was told. A machine given a command. After all, the gunman is always the one at fault, not the gun."

“furthermore, my arrest in an unlikely option, since the system classified this event as a drill. At worst, the news will report this as a bug.
“I only wanted to underline, as per your request, that should I be an hostile party, or part of one, by now the media reaction would be the last of your problem.
“And should the authorities inquire you, I expect you report the facts so that you can give my owners’ shop the occasion to sign a contract to fix the emergency systems and prevent today’s event to happen again. Provided you are not going to be inquired yourself for complicity.” And back was that happy-kid smile.

James and Noah took a moment to absorb what Jemmy and Vi said. First of all, um it was Vi right? If you want to enter our home, you will NEVER do that smile again. We hate that type of smile with ever fiber of our beings. Second, since that alarm went through the entire building, you do not "have the consent of all parties involved." Other wise, you're fine. Welcome to our home. Inside the apartment, there is no doubt a pair of geeks lived here. The walls were lined with shelves full of books, movies, tv shows, video games, toys and other pop culture memorabilia. Some of them were even in glass cases on those shelves. One of those case's stood out though. It was a case of about 14 toys, with its own stand, and it was in a noticeable part of the room.

Wealthy stood and checked the area one last time. Another guest had accidentally dropped their drink, so Hajime was cleaning it up.
"Schedule a date" the words read over the otter. Wealthy grumbled and looked away.
Alright, lets go...
and with that, Wealthy walked outside of the cafe.

Yeah, I just need water... Orion replied.

Wealthy turned to see the programmer approaching.
"Rushed, sorry, hungry" were the words over her head.
Its no problem. Dr. Smith is still inside if you feel like talking with him. Although he may have to leave soon since he has to take Ashe home. She fell asleep right there at the table. Wealthy said.

Vi gave a salute and a slightly exaggerated "Yuss sir!". Before entering the Walker's abode, her instincts to refute authority shelved for the moment.
"Woah, this place has more movies than the rec room at the Sanctuary." The fox quipped, examining the shelves.

"Mr. Glacia, may I use your kitchen? Orion requires a drink of water as he's not feeling well." Kelly queries, moving suggestively towards the door.
"Do you require medical assistance, Orion?"

I'd be surprised if it didn't. Noah said while James answered Jemmys question. You mean the toys? They have the same function as the others, to entertain. They just do it in a different way. While most toys are technically meant for kids, a lot of adults like to collect them, and some are specifically made for those collectors, which of course are called collectibles. However, those tend to be made in limited quantities, which is why we put our collectibles in glass cases so nothing happens to them.

Annette slumped even further in place, "Ah, I understand, very well." she straightened up and began in on her long stride again, "Thank you."

Once inside, the woman looked around for John, and failing him, a free table

Wealthy waited for Dust to exit the shop. As he waited, his range of sensory seemed to grow bigger. He watched as Hajime went to wait on Anette.
Perhaps I liked males instead of females when I was... whatever I was before. Wealthy thought.

Um, a few things. One, we don't do it as a means of social interaction. We do it because we enjoy having a collection and we enjoy watch/reading/playing them. Although some of them we collect for our reviews. I mean why else would I own a copy of after earth, or the beast within comic? James scoffed before he realized something. Sorry, you probably don't know what those things are. They're kinda old. Anyways, a lot of these things we have a connection to. Some of them we hate, some of them we love, and with some of them, the story of how we got them is more interesting than the things themselves. He looked to the case of the 14 toys. And some of them are special above the others.

Jemmy tilted his head. "Oh. Possession and replay intended as stress relievers. This helps avoid waste of energies and time in the search of other means to relief yourselves from stress. Easy and practical." He smiled again.
