As Sophia re entered the living room, Orchid was sat back on the couch with puffed up cheeks and a look of nirvana on her face. 'Lucky bitch.' Sophia internally thought, but kept a happy smile on her face.
"Here you go my sweet, sorry for the wait, the machine was broken." She said as she passed me the cup. "Thank you love." I said as I received the cup. I then took a cursory glance around the room to make sure there is nothing that will cause it to spill all over me before I took a sip.
"Mmmh delicious thank you, Orchid will you put it on the table for me?" Orchid did as I asked and I turned to Sophia. "Come, sit down. We need to chat." I said with a smile.
Sophia moved around the couch and I placed Keyla's small frame on my lap so Sophia had a place to sit down. As she sat down she asked. "What do you wish to talk about my sweet?"
To Clarify the autonomy that Orchid did and Sophia attempted. It was not Jewel (as that would require opening the link), It was more autopilot mode so they could act more like the hive itself instead of individuals. (Like Orchid at the very beginning before meeting Apollo)
Creation is hard, cheer me up!
