Edward recognized the gesture that was put forward by 'Sara', something that humans called a 'handshake'. He pondered to himself whether or not it would be wise to return it, considering that at some point the truce he made might be broken. He hated to think of that possibility, but in this 'game' it was necessary to constantly think of his survival. Part of him wanted to be candid about his feelings, but the truce might end all the faster, and that was something he would try to avoid as much as possible.
Just as suddenly, he was pulled into a hug by Sara and Mindy, which was perplexing and yet gave him a feeling of comfort. Modestly, he gently reached around the both of them, pressing the 'off' button on his weapon before patting them gently on their backs. Being this close to them also gave him a strange feeling, much like the one he felt whenever he was around the Queen. What was this emotion that made his visor change a reddish-pink hue?
The strange one named 'Zafira' told them their friend sent them a code, which he tried to decipher from the sounds of the words. He reminded the girls about their situation, which made them finally listen and start heading back. The code still perplexed him, until he took into account that they could have been meant to be used as words. Phonetically, he went over the recording of Zafira's voice, cross-referencing memories and other data.
"I believe that I may be able to put some light on that code from earlier," he said. "It is perplexing that you would toss away your communications devices. Nevertheless, I believe that I have deciphered that two of the words could have been 'please' and 'help'. Further information may have to be acquired."
"So you think Atasha is in danger?" replied Mindy, who was closest to him. "I did sense something earlier, but..." she shrugged nonchalantly.
"It is interesting that you show little concern for her well being if she is part of the five," he said. "I would inquire into it further, but it may be a personal matter."
"Truth be told, we don't really know why we don't like her," Mindy replied. "It doesn't matter. I'm more interested in you." She smiled and looked at him bashfully.
"I must admit, I am also intrigued to learn more about you and your comrades," Edward said honestly. "However I believe that would be best discussed when we reach safety."
"Oh, you're so thoughtful!" she said, giggling and blushing all the while.
He actually was very thoughtful, so he decided that was a compliment. His visor turned a pleased yellow color, and he actually allowed her a rarity among him. Edward's lips actually curved upwards into a small smile, one of the emotions he had learned to properly express that was unique to himself. It was perhaps the only thing about him that was not mechanical, apart from his soul.
