Spark is about to slam the mothganic again when something begins to talk to it. The synthetic looks up to see the one organic it recognized from before, the one that practically ran behind it as a shield of sorts when the minotaur attacked. Spark actual slowly stood up as she spoke, still holding Fenn with one hand, by the scruff of their cloak. It sends a little bit of electricity through the other hand, shattering the ice that had slowly begun to encrust its chassis. The other arm would be worried about later.

It turns its monitor head back to Yvonne, as she speaks again. When she's finished, the synthetic stares at her almost blankly, the eyes on its monitor returning to its usual background of dark blue.

...Did she just imply dropping Maxwell entirely? Permitting its own freedom to be taken from it? Spark buzzed loudly, almost irritably again. Nothing could take priority over Maxwell, or getting back to them. It also takes contention with being called a 'golem'- a creature within Spark's own realm often summoned specifically to serve a specific master. Spark's monitor displays text, which scrolls upward at an unreadable pace as it's about to berate the organic in front of i-

"This unit can tell exactly what you're processing. It agrees... being 'property' is not a desirable outcome. However... unit reports that the chances of finding a way back is substantially higher with equal standing allies. They don't appear to have meant offense, /and/ they appear to know at least a vague understanding about electronics... something most organics here do not, unit notes." Spark 5.5m interrupts immediately. After a moment, it continues, "This unit is much more acquainted with organics and making agreements, having spent more time with them on a... personal level... as the classification of this unit would imply. Let this unit speak to them."

Spark actual looks at the tiny cat AI resting on its shoulders, processing what it stated. After a moment, it beeps, opening its palm and finally fully releasing Fenn, letting them drop unceremoniously. It crosses its arms, and states, "...So be it. Speak to them."
The last thing Spark actual needed was trouble, that was true. Its chassis wouldn't hold out here forever... and even it could not see any possible methods of causing a bluespace rift that would send it back.

Spark 5.5m turns to Yvonne now, and begins to talk.

"Greetings. You and this unit are very briefly acquainted from the previous... tavern?" it begins. "Your... offer... is very intriguing. However, this unit and unit Spark 5.5 are both self-bound to another organic, in another place far away from here. This bind will not be erased willingly, and 'property' is not a desirable outcome." both Sparks emit a small buzz. "However... Spark actual and this unit are both willing to be 'allies' of a sort. Neither this unit or Spark 5.5 know this location at all, or a way back to where it came from. Your help, on an equal level, would be beneficial to both parties."

Spark actual suddenly emits another beep, having noticed something. It turns to see the demon from before wandering up to them. The synthetic merely stares as they wander up and begin to speak.

"I saw you in a different location here in Stonevale, I take you are here to stay." it says after a small greeting and request to halt. Spark nods, beeping. "Affirmative. For now". The synthetic emits a soft ping, however, as the demon demands Fenn to hand over its satchel. Once it's retrieved the satchel from Fenn, It waits patiently to see what happens next.
