Neck-down Tex

Before you'd even really started to wake up, you heard a knock on your bedroom door. Odd, did Angel Five need something you wondered? Typically, you'd both get up and do your own things and just sort of converge at the breakfast table after you'd cooked something. It wasn't fancy, but it was a routine.

Bleary-eyed, you brushed Angel Seven's red hair from your face, trying your best to get a handle on the borrowed locks before you fished around for clothes. Another knock on the bedroom door startled you as you hurried to pull on your shirt. "I'm up, I'm up! What is it, A-Five?"

It didn't take long for you to get your answer as you swung open the bedroom door! A flustered and slightly panicked Angel Five seemed to stand before you, though something about her looked significantly different as she faced toward you. From the shoulders to the tips of her fingers, you saw slightly bulkier mechanical arms, and from her knees down, a similar sort of bulky armored appearance was visible, in an orange chrome sort of coloring. A structural metal bar ran from the lower leg, past her bare legs, to connect into one of the access ports on her hips, suggesting it was powered in some way by the Endo she was using. Wearing a similarly shiny orange bikini and what looked like some sort of headband with a large flat rabbit-ear antenna on its sides, at first glance you didn't see anything truly strange, just that Angel Five looked like she was some sort of sci-fi android.

"I don't get it, what's the problem? You just wanted to show me your sexy mecha-girl cosplay?"

Angel Five's face turned a bit red. "It's, uh... a bit more complex than that. Tex, maybe a... side profile will help?"

"Right away, Angel Five. Let me just, hmm, coordinate this..."

With shaky baby steps and those mechanical arms held out for stabilization, Angel Five slowly pivoted in place, until she was no longer facing you, instead turned toward the kitchen. The sight really was a surprise... Angel Five's actual arms and legs were bound behind her back, held together by some more orange machinery to restrain them! The mechanical arms coming out of Angel Five's shoulders were in fact all mechanical, she wasn't wearing them, they were instead substituting for the real ones tied up behind her! The lower legs were slightly different, as Angel Five's knees dangled down to create an illusion that they continued into the boot-like shape, but instead they hovered slightly above, feet locked away. The mechanical legs seemed to move a bit shakily, but at least they kept her upright...

You put a hand to your face, looking at this bizarre combination with wide eyes! "What in the... what's the point of this?"

"A bit of an error on my part, I'm afraid," Tex said, though you didn't know where Tex's voice projected from. "My presence within Angel Five's body seems to have disrupted her interface to the Endo from which she could move, thus while she can feel everything it is as if she is paralyzed in her limbs while the Endo is idle. I'll need some amount of time to correct the error, I can't rapidly extract myself at the moment due to a concern I might internally injure her at the interface. So, while I'm calculating a safe exit strategy to re-attempt an integration, I will take care of her mobility using external devices in the meantime. This issue may require further analysis by a Yabusa technician."

You squeezed your eyes shut and opened them again, wondering if this was just a dream or hallucination. "Okay, so... Angel Five can't move, so she's got temporary machine limbs to help. Why the bikini though?"

"Oh, I merely thought the sight of Angel Five in revealing attire would soften the impact of the explanation of my failure. Did it work?" Tex made Angel Five's hips tilt to the side and held out the shiny orange arms in a 'ta-daaa' sort of pose, all while Angel Five's face reddened further. "If you have any requests, I can still operate as your Angel today, Rider Five. I will simply have to adjust some of the hardware to make up for the inoperability of the Endo. It still functions fine as a power source which I can tap into via the access ports, but I would need to redesign the Angel components. Likely in this configuration it would be safest for me to turn her face-up with an Angel design. Perhaps after you feed Angel Five, we can experiment?"

With shaky baby steps, Angel Five was led by Tex's shiny robo-limbs into the living area, turning back toward you to sway those hips at the point of contact, shimmying her body while Angel Five squeals in embarrassment! "Tex, calm down..!" Angel Five whispered harshly to the synthetic being.

"I'm confused, Angel Five," Tex said as you stumbled out of your room, opting to turn toward the kitchen to start some food or at least make some coffee so you could think straight. "Did you not say how you would like to engage with Rider Five, particularly if he were to enter Angel Seven's body, in some sort of erotic nature? I thought I should provide this service on your behalf, given your momentary inability to do so." Tex's hands slid up and down Angel Five's torso, as the girl's eyes shut tight with her face red.

"Well, I meant I was going to do it myself!" Angel Five said, while Tex still tried to perform a teasing dance within eyeshot of you, although the shaky and stilted movements made the attempt more awkward than everything already had been.

"And when we were discussing scenarios last night of the various ways you would allow yourself to interact with Rider Five, did you not say that being immobilized by restraints and letting him 'do as he pleased' interested you as a possible activity?"

You'd just taken a sip of coffee, only to spit it out all over the countertop at that!

Angel Five's voice wavered. "Uhhhh... I can't, I mean... R-Rider? I guess... what do you think? Do you, um, want Tex to make me do this stuff with you? I literally couldn't stop either of you if you tried anyway, but I guess if you were interested, I wouldn't, uh. I wouldn't mind."

You leaned on the counter, watching Angel Five's hips gyrate as her knees dangled above the robotic legs planted to put her body on display for you. While Angel Five clearly seemed embarrassed by just how little command she had over the situation--even for an Angel, this was way less control over herself than normal--something in her eyes, the way she looked at you, seemed to hint that she did want to see things follow through. Maybe the embarrassment at her predicament was part of what interested her in letting you decide her fate?
