Deep inside of Robin Goodall's Subconscious, I roamed around, it still seemed quite uncomfortable but I suppose I was close to getting use to it. An Idea popped into my mind and I wondered if I should poke around in her mind, after all there were so many memories and thoughts to look at, it peeked my curiosity until I noticed Robin was motionless. I started to get worried and confused, was she Unwell? "Robin...?" I said trying to make sure she wasn't dying, after all She is quite fragile. She simply groaned and squirmed a bit, she seemed weak.
"Robin!" I said a bit louder and she jolted up from the sound of my voice in her mind. "What?? Huh??" She looks around and sighs aggravated from my yell. "Alan is that you?" She says as she gets up and sits on the so called "Bed" she rarely used. "Alan...why are you waking me up this early?" She yawned in the middle of her speech. I silenced myself, I didn't want her to think I actually cared for a human such as herself, but I also didn't want her to think I was an idiot and just decided to announce her name loudly. "Just wanted to make sure you heard me." I replied accidentally sounding too cocky, She scoffs and rolls her eyes "Your not at all like I pictured an Alien to act like." She replies in a sassy yet tired tone.
I quietly scoffed to myself mocking her scoff  "Oh you mean you didn't think a Alien would Act as sophisticated?" I smoothly said, she growls a bit "The Opposite actually."
"The Opposite?" I repeat, hearing my voice echo in her mind.
"You're just so-Argh..-" she grips her pillow frustrated at my tone, I noticed I frustrated her, I wanted to know why but, at the same time I was afraid to. I never seen her get so angry before, yes upset but this time... "Hibernating.." I said before going quiet, "Wait Al-an-" she sighs and gets up heading over to the coffee machine. I decided to Hibernate for real until she actually needed me...or the other way around.

I watched as she was walking around, she didn't decide to leave her habitat she stayed in most of the time when she wasn't swimming and grabbing minerals. She sighed sadly and looked down, did she...miss me? I felt a soft burning in my non-existent chest. I sighed gently to myself "...Robin..." I muttered softly, She perks up "Alan!-...thank God you're back..." She looks away and sighed "I'm so sorry for getting mad..." 
"No....it's....alright." I cleared my throat "Have you made progress..?" I asked calmly, She bit her lip "...No I was more worried about you...." this...warmed me for some odd reason. "Ah I see.." I replied, I sighed gently "You shouldn't worry about someone like me." I said to her, I wanted to wrap my arms around her, feel her, but... I couldn't, I couldn't comfort her. "..but I wish to." She replied, I could tell she wasn't lying nor buttering me up...this was the truth, I didn't know what to say, the burning and warmness continued to threaten to peek through, I tried to ignore it for a while "You should probably go out and Explore, after all if you wish for me to leave."
"Right" She nods and the slips on her scuba gear and then jumps into the water.

Peepers swam by as She was surrounded by water, she started to swim through the water, using her seaglider, she grabs up a few peepers and placed them into her infinite pocket I guess? She then moved farther. I got bored and decided to stop monitoring her and just hibernate.

"AH!" Robin shrieked moving away from the area, I jerked awake in her mind, looking around and then into what seemed to be happening, I paused noticing a Leviathan---what was she doing?! she had nothing against a Leviathan! no knives, no guns, nothing! I growled softly to myself, What could I do!? nothing but sit and watch this. Suddenly I noticed a rock nearby floating and hitting the Reaper, I blinked a bit...did I...still have my powers? even in this mortal vessel? Her eyes widened "what--just happened?" Robin questioned, but then started to swim up noticing her oxygen going down, she gasped and looks up into the night sky. "What in the world was that? how did---it glided straight through the ocean and hit it-" Robin says in surprise as she rambled more "Robin Goodall will you focus?" I mutter trying not to laugh, she was starting to Appeal to me--No-she wasn't, she couldn't be appealing even if she tried. "Alan did you see that!?" She says excitedly "I didn't know that could happen!" I sigh gently and cleared my throat..well my non-existent throat. "It's dark, you need..." I thought of the word for what she was doing before. "It's called sleep" She giggled, amused seeming by her beautiful expression and sound she made. "Right...you should sleep Robin." I whisper softly to her, she smiled and nodded swimming back to the Habitat.
