[Lithuania is just staring in complete fascination at the robots as they go about their... Whatever they're doing. She recognizes bits and pieces of what the robots are made of, but that they're moving on their own... Can she speak to them? She's not sure. There are a lot of strange things here. Might as well give it a shot.]

Um, what are you doing?

[At length she becomes aware one is looking at her--she thinks--and she stares back for a bit.]

H-here, you should be more gentle. That's not your property, so it's not fair to destroy it... Build where there aren't things already...?

[She has no idea if this is working at all. Or if it can even understand her. Or. Anything, really. Frankly, she doesn't even have anything here they can destroy. But still...]

Um, does anyone know what they're doing...?

[Cynthia bites her lip, watching the robots. TOTALLY NOT SURE WHAT TO DO HERE.]

N-No. I don't...

[rueandwolf.livejournal.com]

[Watching them still.]

Should we talk to them?

[yokihealing.livejournal.com]

D-do you think... they might listen?

[rueandwolf.livejournal.com]

Maybe? [She approaches one uncertainly.]

Really, you should stop that.

[It does pause to look at her. She thinks that's its face anyway.]

[yokihealing.livejournal.com]

[Cynthia follows behind her, and watches the thing curiously.]

Yes. It's not a very a good thing to do, so please stop.

[Cynthia even smiles at it, being her super polite self.]

[It's still looking at them, that's good, right?]

H-Here, if you want water, do it like this...

[She grabs a bucket and puts water in it, then shows it to the robot.]

[welljustwatchme.livejournal.com]

I think they're just exploring.

[rueandwolf.livejournal.com]

[Jumps a little.]

Ah--Yes, maybe. But I don't see why they--Hey, don't do that! Use a bucket or something if you want water!

[She tugs at a robot tearing up a lake. She also seems to entirely expect it to stop that once she's told it to, because she is Lithuania dammit.]

[welljustwatchme.livejournal.com]

Maybe he doesn't have a bucket? Or doesn't know how to use one. Buckets may not be common where he's from.

[rueandwolf.livejournal.com]

Ah, maybe... [Well she is just going to have to teach one, then. Grabbing a conveniently placed bucket.]

Here, like this.

[She shows them how to get water out with the bucket and then dumps it out and hands it to the robot.]

Now you try.

[It looks at her for a bit before mimicking her actions.]

Ah, it works! [She is a bit childishly excited these machine people are so cool.]

[welljustwatchme.livejournal.com]

See, I thought so. You just have to give them some suggestions.

[rueandwolf.livejournal.com]

They could really be useful, once we teach them.

[welljustwatchme.livejournal.com]

We might even learn something from them, if we're lucky.

[ America is always hanging around Lithuania yes. ]

Why are you bothering to talk to them? We should break them, right?

[rueandwolf.livejournal.com]

It's not fair to hurt them if we haven't explained things to them first...

[Seriously are they alive she has no idea]
