Yasei, ever the noble, affirms Sana's comments towards Emma with a sage "Hai!", and gives Emma a nobleish nod of appreciation. She then quickly retreats towards the skiff! "Let's go, people! Move it!"
You all board the skiff and wave farewell to Emma, who's looking a little nervous about dying, but not completely so because you promised to find another body for her.
"Uh, anyone know how and where we're going to find another robot body?"Misha asks nervously and uncertainly.
As the skiff leaves the cube, Emma hits the button. A countdown appeared on the skiff console. It slowly started counting down. We leaped back on to the Belle and hastily made our retreat. In the night sky, Toril was in view, a beautiful green and blue orb teeming with life.
The Belle rocketed away from the Hive as fast as it could, and when Emma saw the countdown hit zero, she whispered to herself, "Thank you all for saving me. I'll see you again soon. I hope." and she pushed the button.
A massive detonation took place like an imploding star, and after a few minutes, there was nothing left of the Hive, The Ravager, or Emma.
"We'll find one. Nine Hells, we'll make one if we have to," Sana says determinedly before giving the orders to give Emma and her sacrifice a full salute with the ship's artillery.
Misha stared at the explosion of the Hive. They were all a safe distance away, thankfully, that debris would not hard the ship.
"Goodbye, Emma.."she whispered to herself.
And then it dawned on her that, soon, it would be time to head back to Acheron to continue the war. One they were losing. For no reason at all, or perhaps for a very good one, she pulled everyone in for a warm embrace.
Stoic as ever, Yasei awkwardly accepts Misha's hug. When finally let go, she stares back over the remnants of the exploded asteroid, and announces "Some people are lost in their fires, others are forged in them. When life turns up the heat, true warriors answer the call."
Jill returns Misha's hug as she embraces her, unsure of what's going on but knowing that she needs it right now. "That would be a great idea, Yasei. Corrin, are you good to go to Yasei's home?"

Corrin gleefully accepts Misha's hug, glad that she was still with them, but a little saddened that Emma wasn't among them anymore. With her cheek smooshed up against Misha's breastplate, she nods to Jill. "I don't see why not!"

Misha kissed Corrin's forehead, thankful she was alive - thankful everyone was still alive. "Misha ees glad that ees over. I theenk I weel avoid spending time in planet keeling asteroids for a leetle while."With a combination of great relief and some sadness, she said, "Excuse me, Misha needs a bath."
At Yasei's home, Jill assists in making a new body for Emma, and designing it so that it's even prettier than the last one. She has some issues when it comes to getting the wiring done and electrocutes herself a few times, truly earning the moniker of Sparky that Amelia gave her all those years ago. She also takes a bath, since Misha was right and they could all use one. "All right. I think that it should work this time and that Emma should have her new body. Here goes nothing." She puts the chip in, hoping that it'll work this time.

Misha stipped off her clothes and stepped into the tub and let her arms droop to the side. She relaxed in the water for quite a while before she began cleaning herself slowly and methodically, making sure any remnants of garlic goo was off. When she was done, she stepped out, cleaned up, and dressed up in something simple. She come out and stayed with the crew and watched Jill electrocute herself a few times while trying to stifle a laugh.
On her forearm brace, a message from High Command appeared, and she tapped the readout after she read it, and her smile faded a bit, but she still stayed in the room to see if Jill's hard work paid off.
Jill inserts the chip into Emma and finally her eyes light up with that familiar purple glow. Jill falls on her ass, victorious and exhausted after hours of work and multiple electrocutions. "I did it! Emma is alive!"

Misha leaned over Jeel's to look at her handiwork. "Most eempreseev."she nodded sagely. "Here."She helped Jeel up. "You should hef someone look over those electrical burn marks."she joked. She stood over the automaton. "Emma?"she called out.
Emma lurched from lying flat to sitting upright so quickly it started Misha visibly. "BWAH!"
"Greetings, I am a Extradimentional M-M-Modular Maintenance Alg-g-g-g-orithm!" she said choppily, to no one in particular. "Or, you may call me EMMA for short. For short. For short. For shor-" Emma twitch violently and slammed back down on to the table and shook so violently, Misha grabbed Jeel and was about to shield her from the eminent explosion when Emma laughed for a good full minute.
"Did I fool you?" she asked like a child. "I'm just kidding, i'm fine. Did I get you?" she kept laughing.
For a moment, Jill is scared as Emma speaks in a choppy manner and moves in a violent fashion. She's afraid that her robot friend might explode and that she would have to go back and build Emma from scratch again, assuming that there was a chip for her to work with. But then she sees Emma start to laugh and realizes that she was faking it the entire time. She gives Emma a big hug as she laughs. "You did, but it is good to see that you are okay in your new body." Jill steps out of the room that she's been working in and calls out to the others. "Corrin! Sana! Yasei! Emma is back again!"
Emma looks herself over. "Hm!" she muses. "Not the worst body i've been in, i'll give you that. A little rough around the edges, but everything seems to be working properly." she wiggles her fingers and moves her limbs a bit. "Excellent work, Jill. I couldn't be more excited to be functional again and even more happy that you all kept your word." She gets off the table and takes a few steps. Shaky, but she gets used to it. "It looks like, again, i'll have to beg your pardon and ask for clothing again. Just like old times, ah?"
"Oh yes, of course." Jill rushes off to the room that she has been staying in and pulls out some of her clothes. "Here you go. I was at least able to make this body the same size as the old one, so these should fit."
