I just looked at him. "I am happy if you are happy with it. I'm glad that you finally got to let loose. All of the ooze stuff has been really hard on you." I said. He frowned and stood up. "Even with all of that, you were the only one to see the potential to me. Thank you so much, Brianne." he said. There was too much there to talk about. "Go take a shower, champ. You really earned it today." I said. 02 took me by the arm and dragged me along. I was taking a shower with him it seemed. When we were finally clean, we went back to the clan building. Walking down to his room, he was quiet. I was about to leave him to his own devices when he pushed me against the wall. He pressed a hand by my head to keep me pinned in place. 02 looked serious. "You know that I am clean, right!?" he asked. I nodded. "Yeah? We took a shower together." I said. 02 shook his head. "Why don't you fuck me!? I had to get one of those human chumps to do it today." he said. I shrugged my shoulders. "It's not about whether you are clean or not. I cherish you, so I do not see you in that way." I told him. He just frowned.
That was not what he wanted to hear. "I want you." he said as he leaned in. He put a kiss on my forehead. I smiled and said "Thanks. We can hang out more if you want to." He narrowed his eyes at me. "When the Conquerors win the war and take over the continent, I'm going to be the one to own you. You know this, right?" he said. I just rolled my eyes. "You are a Conqueror. I don't like that kind of thing. We simply don't see eye to eye." 02 asked "I don't get it. What does that have to do with anything?" I sighed. "Because I am a human being. You might like me, but you still don't actually think that humans on the whole deserve to live on their own and have autonomy. Do you?" I explained. 02 scoffed out loud. I looked at him tellingly. He said "Humans on the whole suck! They need us to help them not kill themselves or their planet. They just don't know that yet. I don't want to be mean to them. I just want them to have nice lives and listen to us." I was not sure if that was totally true. I am sure that the big celebration at his gym the humans gave him touched him. "Some people are nice." I said.
None of them seemed to have changed his mind much on the matter. There has been a marked maturity in him since he had been born. I was there when that happened and I had a soft spot for him. Before he liked to hurt humans while playing volleyball at their gym or training, now he was fine with just managing them in their daily lives. I could respect that. You could not expect to change everything. He was a NPC. Accepting all of that about them has allowed me to get closer to 02 and 03 in the first place. "I really don't want to hurt you, Brianne, but I want to show you what you are missing out on." he said firmly. I looked at his eyes. They were very determined. I had to respond to him now. "If you want to fuck me without my consent, you would be hurting me, 02." 02 narrowed his eyes. "That's just you being a stupid human. You don't have to worry about it. I am going to make you feel good, so all you have to do is just lay down and enjoy it." he said with a bit of an edge in it. He leaned closer in my space. He did not have body heat, but he was still pinning me to the wall. I pushed 02 back.
