"Alright, this may hurt a bit." James softly said as he took off the back piece of metal on the android's head and carefully putting it on the steel table beside him. James' eyes momentarily look at the android's form that was sitting rather stiffly on a stool, wanting to see if it expressed an emotion. Anything at all. James let out a small sigh as he saw nothing but a blank look on the android. Despite the back of it's scalp open as the doctor did took it off to insert some adjustments on it, the android seemed indifferent.

"It is alright. I do not feel any pain as you do not equipped me with pain receptors, Doctor." James let out another sigh on the android's answer as he maneuvered himself to have a better access on it's scalp. Shaking his head as he continue to prod inside the android's head, carefully not to touch the other components inside as he inserted a small disk on the android's central processing unit to modify it's system for tomorrow's test run.

"Yes, but I just wanted to let you know." James softly said. The android kept quiet, making the doctor frown a bit. James slowly tried to connect the disk on [Name]'s central system as he shifted his gaze on the holographic computer screen on the metallic table beside him. He momentarily gazed at the digital numbers of the clock on the monitor and his frown deepen, remembering what happened a few hours ago.

True to their word. CyberLife did wanted to sent out the newly activated RK850 for a test run on it's system and capabilities. The doctor was rather against on it and begged for them to deploy the android another day as he stated that he had to adjust some stuff on the RK850 and also, to insert graphic interface, Zen Garden and Amanda inside the android's mindscape.

The higher ups of CyberLife agreeded on his request with a bit of conflict in interest at first but nevertheless, James still had time to enjoy his moment with his creation before CyberLife had to take and deploy it the following day.

James frowned when he remembered the argument and begging he did that day earlier. He was so desperate to at least have a bit of time to grasp his creation for even a small fraction of time until it would be taken away from him.

It was not the first time the higher ups of CybeLife had done that as many other engineers that worked there had their creation taken away to be mass produced. The only difference between James and them is that they did not mind the work they did were to be taken away from them. Either way, James wanted to at least spend time with the android, even if it's just for a little bit.

"Doctor, is everything alright?" [Name]'s voice snapped James out of his thoughts as the doctor look at the back of the android's open head. He seemed to unconsciously finished inserting the device inside while he was in his own thoughts.

"Doctor?" James immediately sent a small smile on the android despite it was not looking at his direction.

"Yes, I'm fine." He softly said as he turn his body around to face the table beside him and immediately took action on typing on the holographic keyboard to input the needed codes to start up the android's modifications.

The doctor's gaze shifted a bit on the stiffly sitted android, who was only looking at what was in front of it rather emotionless. James seemed to feel uneasy as he was rather unsettled to see the android seemed to not take mind that the back of it's skull was missing and was displaying one of the vital and fragile parts of it's existence, the Mind Palace.
