Who: Sophie and You!
Where: Cliffside overlooking the beach
When: Days 119-122
Open/Closed: Open - feel free to contact me if you'd like a specific, closed prompt.

[ A telepathic voice message from Sophie will be going out to anyone near the vicinity of the beach: ]

If anyone's close by the beach, come find me. There's something I want to show you.

[ And that's all she's going to say about it. It's a surprise!

On a high cliffside overlooking the small bit of ocean that the island has remaining, colorful patches of flowers cover the area. Although, there's noticeably an even bigger number of purple ones for some reason. The little flower meadow didn't exist before, at least not prior to Sophie's arrival.

Initially, she was slower than others to be able to use her magic. Now it comes easily to her, being able to have patches of flowers materialize with a simple touch on the ground. She used her magic to create a meadow as close to resembling the one back home, on Lhant Hill. However, it does have a few small differences, such as a few moonflowers from recent happenings on the island. There's no tree to make a friendship pact on and there's no Foselos in the sky. And likely, over time, there will be some new additions to the meadow.

Anyone who decides to wander into the area will find Sophie quietly sitting by the edge of the cliff, staring out towards the small ocean and into space. She's not actually zoning out, but looking thoughtful more than anything. ]

[ She smiles even more, recognizing the familiar presence. Likewise, Sophie enjoys 2B's company and has quickly considered her to be a friend. After learning more about the androids from 9S, there's some comfort for her knowing that similar beings to humanoids exist.

From where she's sitting, she looks up at the android. ]

Right. These flowers are called sopherias. We have flowers like these back where I'm from.

Sopherias. [She takes a seat herself, looking closely at the purple flowers. They look a lot like Sophie's hair color, but more than that...] It sounds similar to your name.

[ While it's not that difficult to make the connection between her name and the flower, it brings her to smile. She's proud of her name. ]

That's right, 2B. A friend of mine named me after this flower.

It suits you.

[Granted, 2B's already proven that she doesn't know much about names, but still. It's obvious that Sophie likes her name a lot, and that's enough.]

They named you well.

I used to go by my model name... but I like Sophie better.

[ Sophie turns towards 2B, thoughtful as she looks over her black attire, then her silver white hair. Looking at 2B or A2 always has her wishing she could grow up or had a more ladylike model... but she's also curious about their naming. It's clearly their unit designation, which she figured out when 2B tried to name the boar. ]

2B, do you like going by your unit designation? I bet you could go by a flower name too! Like Lily or Tulip something!

I've never thought about going by something like a flower name.

[She knows that a lot of the Resistance androids had names aside from their unit designations, and thinking about it, an anemone was a flower too, wasn't it? Maybe Anemone would agree with Sophie. Still, it's somehow hard to picture herself with a different name. Sophie's suggestions aside, she doesn't know what she'd call herself.

Besides...]

But I don't mind being called "2B" either. [It might not be her real unit designation, but she likes it better. It's who she chooses to be, even if that's not who she really is.]

It's okay. I'll keep on calling you "2B".

[ If that's what she likes. It's not like how she dislikes being called Protos Heis, at least. Thinking of a flower name that would match with the android is fun to think about though.

Lily and tulip... they both have the color white. Daphne is another one that she's familiar with and she's aware there's a lot more that she'd love to know about. White flowers seem like the best kind that would suit 2B. ]

But you know what? I bet you'd look really nice if you put a flower in your hair, 2B!

[It's almost startling, how similar her words are to what 6O told her before. They make her chest ache, and not for the first time, she wishes 6O was here as well. Alive and able to see the bounty of nature available here. She and Sophie probably would've gotten along.]

... You're not the first person who's said that to me, actually. [There's something warm in her voice, but it's a little sad too.] They liked flowers a lot, too, like you do.

[ She seems to pick up the hint of sadness, but she guesses it's similar to most people on the island with how they're all separated from their friends and families. Though she's aware from 9S that most of YoRHa are no longer functional. She doesn't know how few are left. ]

Were they a friend from home?

They were, yeah.

[Although she never told 6O as much. She thinks her operator probably saw her that way at least, even though she tended to be distant with her. As she was with everyone, really.

Maybe even now, too. Old habits are hard to break.]

I think she'd like it here, if she could ever come.

I hope she can come. I'd like to meet her.

[ If it can make 2B happy, then Sophie would like for it to happen. It's a mystery how they're whisked away to the coven and how it's decided. She doesn't understand why some of the people here are brought alone or at separate times. ]

Is she like you?

[ From YoRHa. Knowing three of the androids already, she can't help but ask. ]

[nodding] She's from YoRHa as well, although she's a different model type from all of us.

[They'd have quite a variety of model types here if that ever happened. If. It's a slim possibility, but given her own impossible presence here, she'd like to think it's possible if nothing else.]

You two would probably get along.
