[To think this duo was an advanced ship AI and a trained warrior would be absurd if someone merely saw them trying to outmatch over simply saying each other's names.]
Ordis.
[The layouts of the ships were certainly something that he would need to get the hang of but for now he'll settle for the directions that Ordis gave him. Sleeping quarters, easy enough. He posts himself outside of the area in order to await for the one who actually lived on this vessel rather than simply barging in.]
[Far from him to question the Operator's sense of direction, though admittedly a few arcwing extractions did leave some wondering, but it seems that the tenno is taking far longer than he'd have thought. Which is strange. Had the Operator gotten lost? Or not come at all? No that's rubbish, of course he had.
But the longer that he takes, the more antsy that Ordis becomes, and eventually it's too much. He ventures out, trying to see if he can spot anyone that's not a part of his fellow crew.]
[The tenno merely rests against the opposite wall and tries to stay out of the way of anyone that goes by. It was the least that he can do since this wasn't his ship let alone he didn't want to bring more attention to himself than he actually desired.
However he perks up at the appearance of the cephalon, pushing off the wall in order to approach him. Why did he look nervous? Did something happen?]
[Oh, oh wait no, he's here. The Operator is here and that takes a load off of his shoulders. Of course the Operator would show, how silly of him to worry.
Even if it would have been completely within the tenno's right to. This is terribly selfish of him, making the Operator come all this way.
Still, he straightens the best he can and offers a weak smile, ushering the man in.]
[It's relieving to finally find the cephalon that he was looking for but he wasn't prepared for how haggard the man appeared. A frown promptly appears as he surveys the rest of his appearance.
Still it was nice that the other was glad to see him.]
It's fine. I know how to wait. You look exhausted though.
One of us is a lot more prepared for threats than the other thanks to your new body. Haste isn't always needed regardless.
[The room isn't bad. Definitely much better than those he's seen on Grineer ship so that was a step in the right direction. Everything was orderly much like he should expect from the cephalon.]
Sufficiently tired. Don't lie. I'm good. Been doing my duties and all but it's not the same. Besides my partner is on a separate ship after all.
[Well, he's being called out already he really should have expected that. Still, he does his best to put up a good front for the Operator. No need to let him know how close to correct he was.]
Ordis is functioning. Ordis should be assistingt the Operator, though. Being aboard a ship, even separate ships, is disconcerting.
[He rolls his eyes and shakes his head because this was a waste of his time to have the cephalon avoiding the point. Still he wasn't going to get frustrated. The tenno remains calm and rests a hand on the other's shoulder.]
Ordis, please. You're not in trouble for being tired so stop avoiding the issue. And the ship issue can be handled.
[His hand is removed in order to rub the bridge of his nose with a sigh. He should've expected this.]
You know I care far too much for you to be trying to fake being alright when you're obviously not. However fine. If you want to believe you are, then continue to do so.
[Onto investigating the rest of the room in order to not focus on the aggravation.]
[Ouch, that's a bit backhanded, and it effectively kowtows him right away. He does have the right of mind to look a bit put in his place, and he sighs, shrinking in on himself.]
[That isn't exactly what he expected to hear. Turning, he examines the deflated cephalon with quite the amount of regret because he hadn't meant to be that harsh. Truthful, yes. Harsh...he needed to fix this.]
It's fine. [Closing the distance once more, he places a gentle hand on his shoulder.] How can I help?
We can work on the tired issue if you want. Unless you want food.
[As a liset, Ordis couldn't be helped except to find his parts again but now like this the tenno had more options. More responsibility. The cephalon didn't ask for this.]
[What does he want? That's the most difficult question, really. Having biological needs and functions has been most troublesome, at least as far as he's been able to understand. But the Operator is being kind...]
Ordis...does not know. ...this body has many needs that Orids is unable to discern.
You should know some of them if you've managed to sleep let alone eat at some points. They won't be as bad as falling over exhausted or starving I would hope but more dimmed versions of those.
[Usually he had someone telling him what was needed at the time. With this, he wasn't completely sure and didn't want to make the wrong judgment when something else could be tended for Ordis.]
I'll go ahead and guard though. [It was something, right? Secruity was always good.]
[Well that was certainly progress compared to the not knowing a bit ago. However that doesn't make the concern waver in the slightest and especially with how long it took for the cephalon to admit to such a blatant thing.]
As I said, I could guard. That should provide you with more security, correct?
...If there are different ideas, I am willing to listen.
[Does he really know what he wants? It feels like such a monumentally difficult task, especially with as weary as he is. Instead he shakes his head, feeling somewhat pitiful for the fact that he can't articulate what he really needs. Orokin bodies are awful.]
The security of this ship is not something that is called into question.
[That disagreement doesn't give him much confidence in what exactly to do with the current situation especially in terms of providing help. If not secruity, then what was he any good for?]
If it's not that, then...what? I don't know what you're going through so I can't simply do anything but guess.
[Hesitation and then he's closing the distance to bring him into a gentle yet protective hold. It was like them waking up in this strange fleet, no ideas how far from home and in weird circumstances.]
[Oh, oh that's still strange, but the sensation of warmth about him feels comforting. And he is exhausted, which makes it all that much easier to fall into the hold, leaning against the tenno with his eyes closed.]
