kmegumi2's birthday. Happy late birthday Mecchan. <3
“Eh, what’s this?”
Lockon eyed the orange ball Sumeragi put in his hands, and lifted it up to check it from different angles. Nothing really jumped out at him, and the way it stared creeped him out a little. But it was oddly cute, too, he decided as he lowered his arms to look at the woman across from him.
“That’s Haro.”
“Haro, huh?” He checked it over again and blinked as its eyes flashed. “Heeh. Hello, Haro.”
“HELLO.” The eyes flashed with each syllable of the synthetic word and the flaps on the side of its head opened and closed. Lockon smiled.
“You’re a rather cute thing, aren’t you?” For a round machine with no true defining features, anyway. But there was something about it that brought warmth to the man’s heart.
“It’s good you think so, because he’s going to be your copilot.” Sumeragi leaned against the doorframe as she spoke, her arms folded under her ample breasts and a smile on her face. From her look Lockon guessed she was just as fond of the little thing as he felt himself getting, but he shook his head.
“I don’t need one though.” He grinned, wide and charming. “I’m the best damn shot you’ve got.” Veda only chose the best, and Lockon sure as hell wasn’t going to give that title up anytime soon. He didn’t need any help proving his worth.
The little ball rumbled in his hand and the ear flaps clicked as they flapped up and down. “ASSIST LOCKON. ASSIST LOCKON.” If a machine could be agitated then Lockon was seeing it now, and it just amused him even more.
Sumeragi laughed quietly and pushed herself away from the doorframe. She laid a small hand on top of Haro, and Lockon could almost believe the thing smiled. “Seems he won’t take no for an answer.”
Lockon sighed and shook his head, but he couldn’t stop the smile that spread across his face. Always stuck babysitting, wasn’t he. “So it seems. Well then, partner.” He lifted Haro up so that their eyes were even. “It’s nice to meet you.”
The little orange machine rumbled happily—there was no damn way Lockon could believe the thing didn’t have feelings now. He glanced over at Sumeragi, but she was on her way out the door, her hand held up in a brief wave as she turned the corner and disappeared down the hallway.
“LOCKON. LOCKON.”
He ran his hand over Haro like he would pet a dog’s head and its ears clicked as it flapped them. He could do worse with copilots, but right then he didn’t think he could do better.
“Well then, partner. Let’s get started, shall we?” He carried the little machine in his hands as he moved down the halls towards Dynames, a smile still on his face.

But oh my gosh...I love them so much together ♥. They are so the best team ever!!!

They are perfect together though. <3<3
