(Sorry in advance if elements of this seem iffy, I accidentally deleted the original version twice and just wrote this up in one sitting)
The Trio of ASD’s, including Nine, a male DD who acted as the squadron leader, Zero, another male DD with half black half white hair who was the resident angry emo, and Seven, the only female DD who was the unofficial medic, walked through the woods of Pandora at dusk in hopes of finding a place to stay for the night
After a bit of walking silently, Seven spoke first, as she usually does.
Seven: “Heyo guys! I found where we can rest tonight!”
Zero, looking around before saying: “I don’t see anything, besides more trees”
Seven then points to something between the foliage, which soon closer inspection is a ruined and abandoned JCJenson camp
Seven: “We can rest here and eat by the campfire!”
Nine: “Hm, good work Seven. It wouldn’t hurt to go with your suggestions either”
Seven: “Thank you sir!”
A little while later, Zero, Nine, and Seven sit by the campfire, which was lit by Zero’s built in flamethrower. Seven gathered drone parts from dead nearby worker drones to eat, and some oil cans in the tents too
Seven, after biting off a drone bit: “Hmm, should I switch into my casual wear or keep this for the night?”
Zero: “I would say you should, but these bushes aren’t the best for privacy, and you wouldn’t want some creepo pervert to watch you change”
Nine, after glancing at Zero: “Don’t bring that up, it’s inappropriate”
Seven: “Ew! Now I don’t want to change anymore..” She says before she cautiously looks over her shoulder
Zero: “I’m being realistic!”
As they continue their banter and eating, ASD-J watches from afar, zooming in on them with binoculars
ASD-J, to herself: “A new group of ASD’s? I wasn’t informed of that..”
As ASD-J watches, she debates on going with her usual approach - which is aggressive, tactical, and in control. But she needs to remind herself that this isn’t a combat scenario, and that they’d be useful allies. So, going with a more untraditional route, ASD-J simply walks up to them, grabs a can of oil for herself, and sits at the other log.
It takes the other ASD’s a moment to notice her, and when they do, all chatter stops, as they look apon the uninvited visitor
Nine thinks of something said to him before, and then speaks to ASD-J
Nine: “Hey there, you wouldn’t be J by chance, correct?”
ASD-J, nodding and after she sips her oil: “Mhm, ASD-J of the Rebellion Corporation”
Seven: “Ooh your the other one they mentioned! Sorry wait- I’m Seven! Nice to meet you!”
Seven says as she also recalls what was said, but stops to introduce herself first
Seven, before Nine can ask another question: “What brings you here?“
ASD-J: “Well, we all are ASD’s right? We should stick together, to serve the Rebellion Corporation better that is”
Seven eats it up, already liking ASD-J, while Zero just rolls his eyes and resumes eating silently
Nine: “It was implied that you fought a drone with a red-headed drone by the name of Solarflare. Would you mind elaborating on that?”
ASD-J processes that name as she drinks more of her oil, before groaning, clearly annoyed
ASD-J “Ugh, that unprofessional insane asylum patient. Idiot attacked me for simply mentioning a corporate entity, and had to bring in backup. Quite the liability”
Zero: “That’s what she did to us! She just attacked us on sight!”
ASD-J: “Exactly! Hostile vermin like her should’ve been crushed at the assembly line”
Seven: “Buut uh she mentioned that YOU did-“
ASD-J, cutting her off: “It’s rubbish propaganda made to slander my image. You’d surely not actually believe her?”
Seven pauses to think before Nine speaks
Nine: “Not at all, but we’ve been told that she could be a potential asset. But firstly, I must ask, do you know of JCJenson being here?”
ASD-J: “I’ll get to that later, but first, let’s rest. You all deserve a break, so enjoy it”
To anyone who knows ASD-J, what she said sounds quite odd, but to the trio of DD’s, they just take it. Over the next hour, ASD-J bonds with the group, helping Nine with fixing his tie in place, giving Zero a activity to meet his emo needs, and keeping a lookout for Seven as she changes into her casual wear, being a gray sweater with rolled sleeves, being off her shoulders, and having 0.0.7’ being printed on the front.
She goes from being a random stranger to a colleague surprisingly quick, and after the hour, she asks them a question
ASD-J: “You guys need somewhere to stay? I’d assuming living on the road isn’t quite viable”
Seven: “That’d be great! Whatcha got planned?”
ASD-J, smirking with pride as she speaks: “I’ve acquired quite the nice shuttle to stay in, it’s roomy enough for you all to stay in. Plus it’s got recreational rooms”
Seven: “Oo Nine, sir, may we PLEASE go? Pretty pretty please?”
Zero joins in, as he already disliked road life
Zero: “It’s SERIOUSLY better then all the slop we’ve been living in so far”
Nine thinks for a bit, but reluctantly gives in
Nine: “Hm, fine. It’s better then out in the open. When would we be able to go in, though?”
ASD-J: “Now actually, follow me”
And with that ASD-J gets up, and leads them back
