What: An impromptu class on How to Human
Where: Myriad rooms in the mansion
When: February 26
Warnings: Health-class stuff, bodily fluids, boring lectures, a total lack of privacy.

At first, Lucca didn't believe Rock when he'd said that Zero had turned human. Maybe it was just a really elaborate upgrade module that he'd found in that disc, after all. But she agreed to take a look for herself and to help him get used to having a flesh-and-blood body.

Knowing Zero, he probably didn't want her help, but she was going to give it anyway.

Examining the disc

[tempus_fixit]

First thing was first; just what in the world WAS that thing that Zero found? She wanted them to bring it, just to have a look. Who knows, it might ring familiar with some of her worlds' futuretech or Zeal's technology.

Lesson 1: Keeping your body fueled

"Okay, guys."

Lucca hefted the tray of sandwiches (Thankfully not prepared by herself, seeing as they weren't charred.) and placed them on the table.

"Here's the thing. You're human now, and while you don't need e-tanks or a power pack to recharge, you DO need food. Think of it like stoking a furnace; you have to have to keep adding fuel to keep the fire going. You'll have a lot more energy that way."

Lesson 2: Proper drainage.

[This almost went without saying, but what goes in must come out. The problem was, newly-human'd robots who run on a plasma infusion system with total waste management might have to hear it anyway.]

[In an attempt to balance privacy with instruction, she'd given them a bit of a warning as to what they had to expect, and left them to handle it once they closed the bathroom door.]

[That... MIGHT be enough? Maybe. Probably. Hopefully.]

Lesson 3: Not being a stupid and hurting yourself.

[tempus_fixit]

"Okay, let me just put it this way. I CAN'T fix you anymore."

She had heard about Zero's injury less than thirty seconds after he'd been turned human, but was at least thoughtful enough to wait until Rock was out of the room before she mentioned this. Boys and their pride, seriously...

"But neither can you. Not... in the way you're thinking, anyway. Your body will self-repair now that it's fully alive. But the thing is, it will heal slowly, there will be pain involved, and some injuries you just can't recover from."

She grabs some gauze.

"I'm gonna show you some basic first aid, but what I really want you to do is protect yourself and know your limitations, so you don't get hurt in the first place."
