Hiro got the sentence William was trying to say “ kit, your the only person who hasn't tried to kill me after the end. So it's only respective if I protect you..”

Malcolm doesn’t emerge for a while, something that seemed oddly concerning.
~~~
Meanwhile, down below, Malcolm’s long buried emotions reigned and he couldn’t figure out how to stop it. He missed so much! But, he hated that he missed it!

He missed being whole, being a simple scientist in a lab, being engaged to lovely Emily, all of it! But, the lab had blown up, tearing him apart, and he had never been the same. He had killed Emily, watched her face fade away into a pile of deadly machines. He had killed everyone, whether he knew them or not.

Why did he care? Why had he ever cared? Emily had always been a whiny bitch, the labs had paid him jack shit for his genius, and the world had considered him nothing more than a speck on the wall. So… why did he care?

Malcolm pondered that for a long while, focusing hard pn the question to calm himself down. Unfortunately, though his pondering soothed him, he still had no answers. It nagged at him.

Hiro yawned, snuggling William. “you're so warm..” he mumbled.

"You too…" He lied on Hiro's chest. "I guess you're right. But I'll protect you, too. Let's stay together."

(Is it me, or are the two completely unconcerned by the fact that Malcolm has all of sudden vanished, even though he was in the middle of cleaning up his shop?)

Malcolm started to pace, figuratively banging his head on the wall to figure out why he suddenly cared about his past. He had forsaken all of it decades ago, and had loved every second of it. Why was it bothering him now, after all these years?

( they probably figured he’s off doing some experiment ) hiro had figured it’s been a while since he has seen the scientist , “ check on him.” He said to the ai at the door. His spin glowed green once more.

The AI came into the shop, seeming a bit confused by Malcolm’s unusual behavior. It headed for the back, going downstairs, then knocking on his door.

Malcolm looked up and cautiously moved to open the door. Seeing the AI, he sighed.

“Leave me be. Having a shitty moment, nothing more.”

“Malcolm-Lifeform has had a long ‘shit-ty moment,”the Ai replied

“Okay. Your point?”

“Return upstairs.”

“No. I prefer taking my time, and I will come up when I choose.”

The AI stood there and Malcolm shut the door. The AI didn’t move.

Hiro thought communivly through the bot. “ Malcolm, are you alright. Your Bp is high and so is your stress level..”

Malcolm’s eyes narrowed as he heard the strange questions come from the AI. The kid was talking to it, and it was relaying his thoughts.

“Why are you so concerned? Besides, I know that’s you, Hiro,”he called without opening his door.

Malcolm pondered if the question was aimed at Hiro or himself.

“ I'm concerned because you are a caretaker. Me the same. You should look after your experiments better..”

Malcolm paused, immediately catching on to Hiro’s implied meaning. He had to give it to the kid, he could be sly.

“Most of my ‘experiments’ are self-reliant. I only need to repair them occasionally, unless they request something else. Others, however, are more annoying than helpful.”

“ aww thanks” hiro said sarcastically “ either way, get your ass up here, your metals are separated.

Malcolm sighed irritably, then left his room. The Ai followed him up, then went back to guarding the door. Malcolm glared at Hiro, but grabbed another bucket and gathered the ingots, putting them on the counter.

“Tell your feline friend to tone down his emotion magic. I know it’s him, so don’t fucking lie to me.”

He moved over to check on his spider robot. It flashed twice in greeting. Malcolm nodded and decided to continue sorting through the cabinets.

“ kit, no fucking around.” he said more for Malcolm then the situation.

Malcolm rolled his eyes at Hiro’s tone, but didn’t pause in his rearranging.

Hiro yawned again, this time laying his head on top of Williams.

"Screw him." William angrily lied down.

Malcolm turned around.

“So, you admit it now?”

His eye narrowed dangerously.

“Do know that the only reason I haven’t put a bullet through you, is Hiro. He, for whatever reason, adores you. I, quite obviously, wouldn’t give two shits about shooting you and tossing your fucking body in the street for scavengers.”

Malcolm returned to his rearranging, a scowl on his face.

"You couldn't kill me if you tried." He growled, sitting up.

“Is that a challenge?”

Malcolm snapped his fingers. The spider robot and six other robots quickly appeared, ready for battle.

William sighed. He made himself emotionless. "The only reason I won't say yes is that he," William pointed at sleeping Hiro, "doesn't want me to. Consider yourself lucky."
