Welcome to Gaia! ::

(( notes: for 1, the title makes me laugh XD. thinking of Simon's character of a mechanic/techy mouse and like, shock in electricity. *shot'd for lame joke* and 2, shock as in emotional shock XD.

For Kotat et Moi XD))

Simon sat in the garden of the park in the center of the flower patch where it was an empty place. His black hair atop his head was warm from the beating sun rays. He pushed his glasses back up and wiped a bit of mouse sweat on his sleeve. he put down his miniature screwdriver down on the ground as he clicked the start-up button.

'You have 1 minute before start up.' said the built in pre-set voice box.

and he closed the 3rd and final bird's stomach cavity and placed the screws in place. he picked up his screwdriver again as he screwed it on tight.

'preparing to start up... 5...4...3...2...1... start up is complete.' said the pre-set voice box. The other two birds had watched as their sibling had risen from a pile of useless junk before Simon had finished.

"i think i'll name you... Kindness. now Kindness, meet your two siblings." Simon said as he took the bird and placed him in front of the two confused bird siblings. "Love," Simon said as he pointed to a bird. "and Faith." He said happily. As the birds' Learning unit started to work, they quickly learned that they were their siblings and they got along well. they also knew that Simon would re-install them if they fought.

The robotic birds stopped as the stole a spot on top of Simon's head before the crash. they saw the approaching female mouse ut decided not to warm their master of this. with this collision, Simon fell onto his front as the birds jumped off, avoiding the squishing of their metal bodies. they chirped as they looked at the girl who made their master. "i'm sorry," he said softly after sitting back up. "there, there birdies, no need to get upset." he said as he nuzzled them on the heads. They cooed at the touch.

"yea, they are birds." he said to the girl with a smile. "bythe way, i'm Simon, and who might you be? is that a butterfly? how is he so small?" He asked her as he pushed it glasses back up. The three birds took refugee on top of Simon's head again looking at the girl, scanning her presence and put it in their database that they were no harm to them at all at this moment. "how is that possible?" he said softly to himself. He knew his birds were mechanical and that could be done with simple wiring and programming but this was a work of nature! such a small monarch when normal ones were so large.

"well, i made these three myself. it was a pure accident when i made the first one, Love" he said pointing to Love. He looked exactly like the other birds but yes, he was Love. "then i tried to make a second one to keep Love company. That came Faith. who was the first bird to have the learning program installed. then Love got it in him and today came Kindness." he said, ranting on about his birds. He could tell them apart even though they looked exactly alike. "they technically have no 'birthplace'. they technically aren't even alive, but they get treated as if they are alive and real." he said happily before taking Love down to show her. "see, all mechanical." the bird looked around as he nodded as a greeting to the female. Love opened his mouth before a mechanical voice said, "hello. i am number oo1."

Simon waved to little Edgar. "can i come with you on your journey?" He asked Sophie. "that way you can look and i can still rant about these three." he said as he placed Love back on his head with the other two. Love snuggled right into the center with the two at his side. he began his talk of no return. "well, they're basically just like Chii in the popular manga, Chobits. They have a learning capibility to teach them to fly, clean themselves and remember people they've met, names of people and their way home." he sai as he stood up with a smile.

Simon thought for a while after to try to put a pinpoint on what was Manga. "well... Manga is like comic books and Chobits is... this series about a guy who finds a persocom which is like a humanoid computer." he said. "and well, Chii is this 'chobit' and she was unique in her own way." he added. "so, which way do we search?" he asked her looking around.

"well, not like spider man. a different type of art and plot style. most manga might be action or a drama or dramatic comdedy." he said "where shall that be? what does your heart say?" he said softly, not to accidentily muffle or tune out the heart's voice. the birds watched atop Simon's head bieng good little birds while they start out on their journey for a butterfly like Edgar~.
