They have radio, but not much else wirelessly.


Neat. Should show me what kind of music they have here on the way back.

Accessories like those. All battery cars have steam outports for these.


Huh. So no, like, radios or anything like that.

Bonds? Maybe. The boss seems like she's trying to leave this behind us, but you're right that it's strange to keep the names.


Do you see yourselves as a family?
<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

That's a good point. Maybe we're brainwashed.


I guess it's still something that bonds you though.

As I understand, she lived some kind of life before the cult, but now that's all she remembers. They're who gave us the Fairy title.


Oh... I'm surprised you are sticking with those names if they're tied to all the negativity in itself.
