Ro jumped onto the merry-go-round, and gripped the metal handrails firmly.
"Hey, tin man, try it."
Zee followed suit, stepping onto the small thing and mimicking Ro.
"I don't see the point…"
Ro cast Zee a smirk before stepping down with one foot. Zee was about to do the same when Ro pushed the ground, making the contraption spin.
Zee, startled by the sudden movement, had to grab onto the rails as his body started to fly slightly outward. Ro leaned back, her blonde hair whipping the in breeze as she pushed the thing faster. She looked like she was having fun.
Zee decided to try it.
As soon as Ro saw Zee shifting his weight, she pulled back, sat down, and hugged the handrails. The reason was seen a moment later as Zee pushed off as hard as he could. The thing spun infinitely faster, and Zee was caught unprepared.
Not aware he had to cope with the sudden increase of centrifugal force, he lost his grip, and was sent flying.
Zeta skidded a little ways before he caught himself and got up.
We wobbled. All the spinning had overloaded his balance centers. They swiftly tried to correct themselves, making his head whirl and the ground seem to shift beneath him.
In short, Zee was incredibly dizzy.
Ro, noticing Zee stumbling, started to get off. However, the contraption was still spinning, and she suffered the same fate as her robot friend.
She tumbled off, hitting her head fairly hard on the ground during the process. That was probably going to leave a bruise.
Ro staggered upwards, and half jogged, half stumbled over to Zee, who was just beginning to recover. However, due to her own dizziness, she tripped and fell. Ro braced herself for the impact, but was instead caught by a sturdy pair of arms.
Zee, unbalanced by the new weight, fell over, and ended up pulling Ro along for the ride.
Zee's head was swimming. The spinning messed up his sensors and the sudden light didn't help. He shielded his eyes against the sunlight and let them adjust.
He looked at Ro, who was currently splayed across his chest. She looked a little sick.
"Are you okay?" he inquired, slowly sitting up.
Ro looked blearily up at him, and then pushed him back down.
"No moving. I need to recover."
Zee complied, and lay back down.
Ro sighed. "Well that was fun…"
Zee pondered this for a moment. "Perhaps it was."
Ro attempted to look up at him, failed, gave up, and closed her eyes. "Zee, I was being sarcastic."
"Oh."
Ro had an odd expression for a moment, then burst out laughing. "You echo!"
Zee blinked and sat up. "I what?"
Ro was grinning like a cheshire cat. "Your voice echoes. It sounds really weird!"
Zee looked hopelessly confused. This only made Ro laugh more.
Ro lay her head back down on top of him. "When I go like this, and you talk, the sound changes. It also echoes." She playfully rapped his chest. "The tin man is hollow, but he'll get his heart soon."
Zee smiled.
