Summary
Mira is fucking angry. The bridge is there, the connection is strong, and yet. And yet. The robot refuses to move. It's like the bones and the muscles wrapping around them are there, but the nervous system is missing. Which is stupid. It's a fucking robot. Mira is so fucking angry.
Zoey isn't enough. She knew this, but she hoped against hope it wasn't true. And she's not even sad about it. She knew it. She's holding Mira back, she cannot help the world, and it's all her god damn fault. Zoey never was enough.
"Girls. Steady." The calm, yet assertive voice of their commanding officer, Ryu Rumi, comes through the comms.
The bridge stabilizes. For just a second, the bridge is more stable than it's been since the original drift compatibility test between the two pilots.
The nervous system of the robot slipped in place, for just a moment. Somebody else shouldered the difference, for just a moment.
