Of Spare Parts (and their echoes)
[n]otation
Sometimes, they'll find vast halls, full of archaic books, crumbling pages. They spend the longest times here, untouched by androids and machines alike; wandering echoing corridors, libraries offer safety, shelter…
And knowledge.
2B loves atlases, trying to piece together what the world looked like before the mess of today. She pores over charts, recalls landmarks, sends the Pods to scout areas they unearth to compile maps.
She says there's something soothing about doing what 9S used to do- scanning.
9S is happy to stay as long as she wants- watching her tattered hands fly across old canvas and paper while mapping areas is enough to make his heart sing.
