Brooklyn looks at the currently bodiless robot that is looking around it's surroundings. It has pretty much woken up from it's program and could be considered sentient, but that doesn't prove its intelligence yet.

“Don't you think looking at this alone is low key… creepy?” Brooklyn asked as the robot's eyes were on her giving her chills on the back of her spine.

Heins wasn't too sure about the robot being creepy, but rather it's just a mere metal moving by it's program, and that is to act for itself, but in the command of whoever is Heins going to authorize it to, and that would probably be the military and everyone who can be trusted with a dangerous weapon like her.

“Well… You're not wrong, but don't be so lumpy already, we're not going to release a robot with only it's head, that's quite ridiculous.” 

“Yes… I know it's ridiculous brother, but I was just asking if you think this robot head alone is enough to give a child nightmares.”

…

“Ah- uh yeah, yeah, you're right. A moving head alone can make a young child cry.”

Brooklyn sighs as she looks at the head that is still looking around and testing some of its functions on its own head.

She can all see the progress by the computer that's besides it.

Showing how it sees and how it functions.

For no blueprints Brooklyn is kind of baffled to see her father's loyal workers still remembering how he made the previous Projects.

“Oh I forgot!” Brooklyn looked at his brother who said he forgot something.

“What is it, brother?”

“Test 65… Don't you think that name is kind of… overused?”

Brooklyn raises an eyebrow as she sees the robot opening its mouth and closing it and doing it all over again which is giving her the cold shoulder again but she tries to ignore it and look at her brother.

“What do you mean by that?” Now that her brother mentions it. There's something about these projects that her father made that are very familiar towards each other.

Maybe it's not how they function or the fact that they are little… maybe they're all named Test and then a number after?

In this case this robot's name is Test 65, and if there's some robot Brooklyn is unaware of, it would be Test 66.

Now that getting all of it, he's right.

The names are mostly the same.

The only difference to its name is that to its number. 

The brother knew her sister would get the problem he was thinking, so that's why he didn't bother to let her know it, and let herself think about it.

“I see.” Brooklyn said. “What do you suggest then? Give it an actual name?”

Heins rubs his chin on this but he gives a slight shake on his head. “Yes, but not actually.”

“Eh?”

…

“We give it a name. But we don't go too far from its original name.”

…

“Okay then. What do you suggest this robot's name would be then?”

Heins scratches his head as he looks at his sister. “Actually… I was going to ask you that. I'm not very creative with naming.”

*Sigh*

“Of course you aren't…”

Brooklyn looks at the head once again, and it's just wondering what's going on between the two siblings. It's like… a curious child, thinking to themselves what is happening in front of them.

This triggered something inside Brooklyn for a second, but she later forgot it due to the robots unintentional creepiness getting to the girls nerves.

…

But… What exactly would be the perfect name…? There's so many choices but yet it has to be something that doesn't go far from its original name.

It seems hard, but Brooklyn would always be the one who names things when it comes to toys, projects, and especially today, robots.

“Well… If you're letting me choose…”

She looks at the robot head and she gets close to it. 

“Test 65, Register your name by my command.”

She said as she looked at the screen to see if it got her message. And apparently, it's doing its job and it's going to register her new name. Oh how technology works these days.

…

“Lixie Rive.” Said with a nonchalant voice by Brooklyn as she stands up and looks at the screen.

Brooklyn mentally nods to herself as she looks at her brother and just gives a smile.

“I'm going to wonder what you'll do without me in this building.”

Heins just shrugs, but that isn't going to happen. He's going to make sure Brooklyn doesn't get harmed nor badly hurt.

If his father's death hurt her that badly a few days back, then he's not going to make it worse for her.
