"Well maybe you can ask her. She's under the underground section. Do you know where that is?"

"Don't you think Dorothy is big enough already? Heheheh."

"But yeah, she really strained herself before while keeping everyone safe..."

"Well... I've kinda just been calling her Ruby. But the friends inside are Pariah, Tlaloc, and Scylla."

"Dorothy also goes in here, but she's still resting."

Hugging her back.

"Good luck. Keep me updated okay?"

"Oh, like Kongo? Hmhmhm~"

"I bet she'd like to hear that."

Closing up the frame and inserting 3 Caskets into different ports.

It powers on and stretches.

"That looks familiar. What's that for?"

She's putting the armor plates back onto the frame.

"Hmm... I wonder if it'll be possible to eventually tame them without dominating their will..."

"Hehehe, thank you Belle."

Letting Belle cling to her while she gets back to work.

She's humming a little work tune.

"Alright then. We'll start with a small test group. Coral as many as you can in a zone far away from civilians. See how they comply to your control and try to set up a failsafe or redundancy system that will prolong the domination should you stop it."

"Sound good?"

"Try experimenting. You're free to use whatever parts nobody else is using. Just try not to use all of it. Sometimes we need this stuff for emergency repairs."

Ruffling her hair

"Hmm..."

"What good would controlling them do?"

Together they make a light that can glow many colors and has several strobe settings that indicate different things.

Sos, all clear, etc.

"Good job Belle."

+
They're not native to Verdant and just wreak havoc on the natural order."

"Huh...well..."

"I don't think that'd be necessary. Liam's handled all of the destructive monsters by now. All that's left are the normal ones that just chill."

"Occaisionally one will act out but...it's not worth enslaving the entire population."

"Just help out with the gummy monsters.+

"What do you mean to dominate?" Her head leans to the side

"And what do you mean by monsters?"

"Of course. Let's start with something small first."

She starts digging around in a box of scrap parts. Pulling out little dodads and odd devices.

She explains what each part is and what it does. A power source, some filaments, wires, and a set of switches.

"Thank you, I try my best hehe..."

"An action?" She raised an eyebrow

"What kind of action?"

"Mhm. Multiple friends inhabit this body. I gotta make sure its up to snuff for them as well as myself."

"Do you like making things Belle?"

"Mm!"

"Hehehe...well you're certainly like him. You like to nibble don't you?"

She's making adjustments to her suit.

Adding new parts, tweaking valves, etc.

It's stripped of most of its plating, letting one see the "organs" of the machine.

She's covered in grease, but she's smiling and humming to herself.

Boing

Left

Hayden blushes after bracing from the wave of the impact.

"U-Uh...well...um..."

"Anything is possible I guess?"

"Um...?"

"I don't think so? I don't remember birthing you...unless you're from the future, then I suppose it's a possibility."

Weird...

"Is there something I can help you with?"

"Hello Lana. Um...is everything okay?"

"If you say so..."

Patting his head and rubbing her bump.

She sighs and smiles to him

"I need to stop having babies..."

"You've been busy too..."

"We're a team hun..."

"Let's figure something out together."

"So what are we going to do with these girls?"

"Do you know how many there will be?"
