🇦🇵🇪🇷🇹🇺🇷🇪.

     BLUE WAS still trying to get sense of this world. Land beyond the Aperture Laboratories were so... F R E S H ! Atlas ( loved ) it here in... Seattle, right ? Yeah, that was right ! The portal gun strapped to his back swings with each step he takes, practically bouncing along the sidewalk as he moves. But he’s getting tuckered out, these human bodies tire so e a s i l y, and he’s moving to take a seat on the bench beside a petite blonde. He’s not expecting any words from her, especially not the kind smile he receives, but he returns it anyways, charming and sweet. “ Hi ! “ He chirps, waving his hand at her. It was a simple gesture, one that he would only send to P-Body on the test runs when they wanted to annoy GLaDOS. 

     THE TESTING bot was M O R E then startled when the large blue box just... ( APPEARED ) in front of him, eyes blowing wide at the sight. “ That’s... Is that normal ? “ Having been locked up in Aperture Laboratories for y e a r s, never seeing outside the facilities walls, Atlas didn’t know what was normal in the human’s world and what wasn’t. As it turns out, the surprise isn’t over yet, considering somebody is being shoved out of the blue phone box. As if it had a mind of it’s own. Maybe it did ? Blue didn’t know. “ You could... Pick the lock, if it has one... “

     ATLAS’ eyes widen at the sight of the human caught in the trap, head tilting to the side slowly. “ Oh dear.. “ He mumbles, stepping a bit closer so he can poke at the rope around the other’s foot. “ You humans are silly things, I’m not sure why anybody would put one of these up. “ His hands reach out to untie his foot then, watching as he tumbled to the ground.

     HE WISHES he could find Orange. His partner in science, his best friend, the love of his life ?? Who knows, robots don’t have feelings. But ever since he became a HUMAN, he can’t seem to shake her out of his head. Messing around with his own portal gun seemed to ease his boredom, but it wasn’t as fun when he didn’t have P-Body around to mess with. Replacing her portal with his own, making her drop from great heights by messing one little thing in their set up. Pissing off GLaDOS with her h a d to be his favourite though. So when he saw the orange portal make a hole in his wall, a petite girl to make her way through, Atlas was m o r e than excited to see his friend. “ P ? “ It H A D to be her, who else could this possibly be ? One of the other human test subjects ? No, he had a strong feeling about this. “ ORANGE ! Oh goodness, it that ( really ) you ?! “ He moves from where he was messing with his own portal gun, a hand reaching out to grab her wrist and pull her into a tight hug. 

     THE TESTING bot looks at the flesh of his hands, eyes wide as he curls his fingers and clenches his fists. This is certainly ( NEW ) ! Oh boy, GlaDOS certainly wouldn’t like this. Looking up at the sound of a voice, Atlas furrows his brows, trying to make sense of the words. To him it sounds like gibberish, GlaDOS only ever speaking to him and P-Body in English. No other languages were needed, so Aperture Science never included that into his motherboard. “ I don’t... Speak t h a t language. I’m terribly sorry though, do you know English ? “

     ATLAS pauses for a moment, head tilting to the side slowly as he watches her. “ I dunno’, your guess would be as good as mine. “ He gives a small shrug of his shoulders, hands tucked into the pockets of his white sweater.
