[ Naturally, it's right as the magical girl sequence (?????????) ends, leaving Connor standing there looking like a bee-themed superhero, that they hit the ground floor and the elevator doors open.
The combination of these things is enough to more or less make Yu's soul evaporate from his body, so he doesn't move or even try to say a word while Connor casually reaches out to shut the doors and send them back up.
In the end Yu will just kind of brace a hand against the wall, sword forgotten as he leans over, holding his face in his other hand. He'll mutter something in Japanese, and if Connor has translation capabilities tucked away in that robobrain of his, he'll probably catch a few words which translate to "magical boy."
Anyway he's going to need a solid ass minute to recover from that experience, so don't mind him fucking dying over here. ]
Despite the general weirdness of the entire situation, Connor is relatively calm as the elevator starts to move back towards the penthouse. He brings a gloved hand up to his face, frowning as he feels around the domino mask. His frown intensifies when Yu braces a hand against the wall, mumbling to himself in Japanese. Guess who's fully fluent in Japanese? This roomba. Guess who also doesn't know what the heckie a magical boy is? This roomba.
[Squinting at him like he doesn't quite believe it, but. Okay. Sure. Whatever you say, Yu!!! Connor will look down at himself, tapping a finger against the bee-shaped pin — before he nods.]
[The transformation peels itself off of Connor like the magic it is, leaving him in his clothes - and Pollen emerges from the comb, coming to rest on his shoulder.
Yeah. If androids have souls, then Connor's is totally yeeting itself out of its plastic prison at this very moment. While Yu tries to appease a very angry god, Connor is just going to. Casually. Shove the comb back in the box to deposit it in her hand.
