#scomp

Creature Prompt: @pinahallowsevecloneparty

Author’s Notes: I don’t do these much, if at all, ever, I think this is the third piece of fan-fic I’ve ever written in my life, and it’s probably been a good 7 years or more since the last one I wrote, so...don’t expect much lol Relationships: Echo/Reader (hinted at) Warnings: A smidge of fluff, but that’s it. ------------------------------------------------------ You gently prodded at the scomp-link that Echo had kindly offered to show you. Your curiosity about everything in this world knew no bounds, and the boys seemed more than happy to oblige in educating you. You weren’t sure if it was curiosity on their part, or protectiveness. Probably both you thought to yourself. “But why’s it called scomp? What does it mean?” you query, tracing the patterned end absent-mindedly as you give Echo a look of bafflement, your brow furrowed in a way that he can’t help but think to himself is pretty cute. (Not that he’d ever admit it to you.) He opens his mouth like he’s about to explain before a voice echoes down from the other end of the Marauder. “Scomp is a portmanteau from various terms used to describe the technology, such as standard access adapter, computer input port, and computer interface socket. People abbreviated these terms enough over time that we now get the word scomp.”  You can’t help but giggle a little as Echo rolls his eyes, “Thanks Tech.” “My pleasure.” the voice responds, before the ships goes quiet again. “Anyway- do you not have anything like that from your world?” You think for a moment, wondering what would be a good comparison before your eyes light up, “YES! DONGLE!”  Echo raises his eyebrows, and Tech’s voice sounds out again,  “Excuse me?”  The rest of the day is spent explaining the wonders of dongles and their uses to two very curious clones.
