[ There is a lot of loud teenage yelling in the bracelet. ]

This is some baloney! Gramps! Hey, Gramps, Crozier, where the mess are you? Ya gotta get me to him, you sanctimonious Nurse jerk, he's sick! He ain't doing well and someone's gotta look out for him. Tell me where he is or I'll break your kneecaps!

[ Understandably, telling someone that you'll break their kneecaps gets you sent to the naughty room. Kyoko is speedrunning getting in trouble as not even two hours into her stay on the Clipper, she's sent to a padded room in Sick Bay. Anyone visiting can hear faint yelling from inside of one of the rooms and actual yelling should they go inside to see what's what.

Later, she can be found skulking around the ship, glaring at everybody and shaking down anybody from the Barge to try and get information. Crozier isn't here. And in Kyoko's mind, that's not going to stand. ]

Zhao Yunlan half-falls back against the picnic table, laughing despite himself.

"What the fork! Who are you?"

Kyoko continues to struggle absolutely ineffectively. Her legs whack into Baymax's stomach as she tries to keep kicking despite the fact that she's getting hugged.

"Lemme go!"

"I am Baymax. Your personal healthcare companion," he says to Yunlan, while refusing to yield to Kyoko's struggles, "Unfortunately, I am unable to grant that request. I can only release you once you are calmed down."

And, on that note, some very soothing music starts to play as he gives soft gentle-robot-voice hums. He begins walking away with her; destination: a nice, quiet, and relaxing room! It's okay, Kyoko, he will save you from yourself!!

Well, holy shit. (Yunlan remains deeply grateful that he can still think profanity.)

"She's fine, really," he calls after Baymax. "Yo, Kyoko! Relax, let him put you down!"

Sure, the Healthcare Companion robot seems benevolent enough, but he also seems worryingly implacable. And who knows where he's taking her?

Kyoko doesn't relax. Instead, she goes to her last resort: biting. She chomps down on Baymax's arm, as if that will somehow help and not just be the equivalent of biting a pool floatie.

Kyoko doesn't manage to puncture him just yet, though even what she does manage proves it's most likely possible to make a hole. She'll just have to "pinch" the material with her teeth. And, since Baymax doesn't seem to "feel" anything there, this is probably the prime time to have a go at it!

Meanwhile, Baymax pauses long enough to slowly shuffle himself around to look at Yunlan as he politely speaks.

"If it would ease your concerns, you are welcome to come along. We will be listening to soothing music. You and Kyoko can have hot cocoa or tea, as well as some assorted snacks."

"...Hot cocoa," Yunlan says, voice dropping down to a dubious croak. "Okay, okay. Yeah, I'll be tagging along."

He shoots Kyoko a dubious glare: she'd better not go after him again the moment Marshmallow Man lets go.

Kyoko just glowers at Yunlan and at Baymax as she continues to try and rip a hole with her teeth in the dumb marshmallow thing's stupid skin.

She's very grumpy and very annoyed and does not like all of this.

It's going to be a little difficult to make even a tiny hole (unless Kyoko has fairly sharp teeth), but it isn't impossible! So, a very tiny hole will eventually be made. There's instantly the sound of a quiet fan running, preventing any immediate deflation.

"Oh dear. Causing harm to anyone is very forbidden. Unless you stop now, I will be forced to sedate you."

He does mean forced in a fairly literal sense, given a passive approach will earn demotion. But, unlike many, he prefers to give at least one more warning.

"Quit biting the inflatable robot, Kyoko," Yunlan says on a vast sigh. "Come on. Punch a wall or something like the rest of us, why don't you?"

Kyoko lets out a muffled noise which sounds kind of like 'urrrrgh, fine.' It's muffled due to the fact that she still has some of the inflatable robot's skin (covering?) in her mouth, which makes it sound worse than it actually is. She spits out the part of Baymax in her mouth before pointing out,

"Wouldn't it be better if you were metal?"

The quiet motor will continue preventing his full-on deflation, yet Baymax speaks as if that isn't happening. His voice carries more fondness than someone might expect of a robot essentially stuffed into very sturdy... plastic? It's hard to tell exactly what the material is, just by looking and feeling.

"Having a soft body ensures that an injured person would feel less pain, during transportation. Tadashi's dream was for me to be a gentle companion that could help everyone."

"Who's Tadashi?" Yunlan's betting it was the robot's designer or something like that, but it seems like a safe conversational topic. He's appreciating the fact that Kyoko's not actually trying to bite its arm off anymore.

Kyoko kind of also wants to know who Tadashi is. So she goes limp in Baymax's arms and just listens, waiting for the robot to answer the question.

"Tadashi Hamada was a robotics student at the San Fransokyo Institute of Technology. He created me in the hopes to help as many people as possible. He believed that I would help make the world a better place."

It's a very easily-given answer.
