„It’s amazing how people can change,” 42 stated as she looked over the fax machine. XL had gotten himself a complete overhaul.
“I sure look good!” he grinned. 42 smiled. The female robot hadn’t talked with the fax machine in quite a while. They used to work with each other a few years ago. How many years. 42 silently gasped as she realized that it had been 5 years already. 5 years… She didn’t think it was possible.
“So, did you know that they closed Cosmo’s?” 42 inquired, while was still showing off his new self. Still a fax machine, but hey he got some really neat upgrades indeed, “As in really closed!” she tried to get into a conversation. Long time no see after all.
“I was there quite often, every second or third month,” XL suddenly answered, kind of surprised, “Are you sure?”
“Yes, definitely closed. They had some money issues.” Silence, “It’s sad somehow… even if you don’t go there to eat, you’ll never meet the people there again.”
“Good ol’ times.” XL said, head hanging down.
“Well, mostly.” 42 then added, remembering some not-so well went placement. Oh yeah, and the tantrum XR had been throwing there after, well…
“I haven’t seen anyone from there other than you and my girlfriend,” XL thought. It looked so strange to see him thinking. It seemed so… wrong.
“Really?” the female bot asked. Oh, and he got himself a girlfriend, how cute.
“XR has been talking to me quite a lot, as well, but… not much lately.” XL then said, absentmindedly, tipping his lower lip.
“It’s just the same as with the Pizza Planet,” 42 started, hoping to get a change of topic.
“I always try to talk to him, though… I just can’t…”
“Oh, that’s just like with…” Random name, random name, random name, “Leon.”
“Who’s that?” the fax machine asked.
“Former fellow worker, you don’t know him.” And it’s good that way, let’s switch the topic now.
It was then when XR actually passed the conversation. XL gripped 42’s arm.
“Hey, look! C’mon we’re gonna talk to him now! Okay? Do you help me?”
42 stared at the office machine a little dumbfound.
“What? Here? Now? WHAT?”
“C’mon it’ll be fun!” XL inquired and already rolled over to the ranger.
And sooner than it happened XR had been caught in a discussion he didn’t even know of.
He’d been following the chatter a while, 42 and XL tried to keep.
“Objection!” he then yelped.
“Denied!” XL answered, chuckling.
“What’s going on here?” the ranger asked.
“We’re having a little… nostalgia chat,” 42 then answered. Good disguise, yes.
“Did you know they closed Cosmo’s?”
“Yeah, I know. I’ve been there.” XR then answered dryly.
“Oh…” 42 thought to herself, “So… what else have you been doing?” 5 years… wow.
“How’s work?!” XL threw in. Obviously directed at his brother.
“Uhm… I don’t care. I’ve got vacation.”
“Yeah right, forgot!” XL chirped, starting laughter that hurt to listen to.
“I’m currently working at a big import company,” 42 then said, slowly getting into the conversation, “It’s just a few minutes away from my home.”
“That’s… handy.” XR stated.
“Yes,” 42 smiled, “Indeed.”
“I found you on the “know how!” website a few days ago!” XL stated.
“That’s “who knows who””, XR then said shaking his head. He had known why he had taken a break from his brother.
“Yeah, anyway I found you there, when are you going to add me?”
“Oh I don’t like that website,” 42 threw in, “I prefer art-sites.”
“Showing around some ships?” XR questioned.
“For example.” the female answered, “Did you know that this flesh… Buzz Lightyear had quite some fans?”
“Yes,” XR nodded proudly. It actually had taken her some time to finally realize that, “He’s my captain after all!”
XL meanwhile had driven off a little, watching the ongoing oh so lively dialogue of the two with a smile. They had quite a lot to talk about. It soon had developed to a conversation on which 42 was showing her ex some designs out of her personal “always at hand” archive and not long after, both seemed to have forgotten that the fax machine was still there as well. But he didn’t seem to mind. Watching them was quite… enough and after a while, he left the conversation.
Good 10 minutes after, XR finally looked up and around a little.
“I guess… XL hit the road.”
“Possible,” 42 stated almost unheard, feeling a little odd to get thrown off the conversation.
The ranger then uncomfortable rubbed his hands.
“Ehm, well. I gotta go. My team is waiting for me, you see…”
42 silently nodded, as a decent smile flashed across the ranger’s face, “But I sure hope it won’t take so long next time to see you again,” he added, voice low, but still chipper.
“I’m gonna be here a little more often during the next weeks.” the female robot stated.
“Good!” XR then smiled and wheeled off, “So long.”
42 shook her head as she watched him go.
“No,” she thought to herself, “Not so long.”

AN: My ex and me just watched a movie together yesterday and we are getting along fine. Being "just friends" CAN work ^^
