When the cyborg spoke to Kat shortly after she left her room she stopped in her tracks and turned her attention to it, raising a brow slightly. Noticing that it was trying to be as friendly as it could, she couldnâ€™t help but give it an A for effort. That was something she hadnâ€™t been expecting that at all. Cyborgs were, after all, machines; she really didnâ€™t think they were capable of taking such things into consideration at all and would expect it just to go about its duties without any care at all. Kat has always thought of them to just be machines created to follow orders and nothing more. After all it wasnâ€™t like cyborgs were actually capable of experiencing human emotions, right? And usually if they did it was artificial though most of the time they werenâ€™t really aware of that if she was remembering correctly. Or maybe technology really has come a long way after all to keep up with the times. Either way she was still rather impressed.<br/><br/>Maybe this wouldnâ€™t be so bad after all, she wondered. Then again the cyborg could just be adjusting to his situation and acting accordingly. In the end it was, again, just a machine created for the sole purpose of following its orders.<br/><br/>â€œSure, let them know Iâ€™ll be there shortly,â€ though she seemed to just wave it off somewhat absently Kat allowed herself to smile at the cyborg, even if the smile was faint and somewhat short lived. She still wasnâ€™t sure if she should be comfortable around it. Nonetheless the smile was more or less showing appreciation for him at least trying to make the situation better, giving credit where it was due. She wasnâ€™t ready to drop her guard just yet. Besides, the thought of Eric staying put until told otherwise was a bit amusing even if she knew she could easily be given the same order to stay put whenever the cyborg damn well pleased. She could ignore it if it did, but knew that wasnâ€™t a good idea. Thoughts of disobeying the captain again were the last thing on her mind. She has already decided she wasnâ€™t going to make a habit out of getting in to trouble. Instead, she decided she was going to find her own ways of dealing with this.<br/><br/>Perhaps she could find some way to use the cyborg to her advantage? The captainâ€™s rules were absolute, set in stone, but that didnâ€™t mean she couldnâ€™t find a way to make this a little more positive for her instead. Better than her being completely uncomfortable with it around and constantly trying to ignore it. Kat had no intentions of making the cyborg do any work for her since that was her punishment not his and she could definitely do things on her own, however that didnâ€™t mean that she couldnâ€™t find ways to make the cyborg useful. It was just a thought, however, not something she would expect to work as she was not the cyborgâ€™s creator. She didnâ€™t know that much about cyborgs, but she was sure that only the creator and programmers could do stuff like give orders and whatnot; they probably ordered it to listen only to a select people, the captain being the most important person on that list obviously.<br/><br/>Once Kat was at Ericâ€™s room, she knocked softly on the door. She was sure that he wouldnâ€™t mind too much if she just announced herself and walked in but she reall wasnâ€™t sure how the cyborg assigned to him would react if she did that. She might pin her to the wall or something for being an intruder. Calmly, she waited for Eric to answer the door.
