Before all of this, if someone had told her she'd end up in this situation with one of her dearest friends, she never would have believed them. But with her world upended and normalcy thrown out the window, she's embracing the need to be flexible, to establish a new normal, whatever it may look like. If that includes a casual sexual activity with her giant robot friend...

Okay, it sounds a bit crazy when put like that, but crazy doesn't have to be a bad thing. Knock Out has his own mind and if they're both okay with this, then she'll put her trust in him again.

She moves a few feet away when he nudges her, watching in fascination as his outline changes and the lights go from white to red. Once upon a time, it would have terrified her to see him like this in the dark, but now all she feels is genuine affection. He beckons her and she doesn't hesitate to go to him for even a second.

"I'm sorry if I offended you," she apologizes softly. "It's been a long time since... anything, really."
