001 || [Open to All]
It was very difficult to get things done when your best friend (or boyfriend or mate or whatever the appropriate title actually was) was living in your head. Goliath did his best to allow Elisa to remain in control of her own body, but it wasn’t easy. For either of them.
After all, as well as sharing a body, they shared thoughts and feelings. For Elisa, who was far from forthcoming when it came to her emotions, it was proving to be a constant battle. In many ways, it would have been easier to share with a stranger. They’d reached a comfortable balance in their relationship since she’d woken up from the pods and she didn’t want to disturb that. Not when things were going so well.
If the way that Goliath kept trying to focus on his favourite plays and novels was any indication, the gargoyle was finding it just as hard to keep things that he wouldn’t ordinarily share concealed. And spending a long time as a human was definitely something it would take him a long time to get used it. Elisa sincerely hoped that he wouldn’t have to get used to it. They knew who was responsible for the chaos now. (The goddess, if that was what she really was, hadn’t been particularly secretive.) What they didn’t know was how to persuade her to change them back.
They’d find out.
OOC: Open to anyone who would like to bother Goliath and / or Elisa while they're stuck together during the soulcatcher plot.

There had been a time when she wouldn't have thought of robots as having souls at all, but, since then, she'd met a lot of different kinds of robots. Maybe Atom was closer to Coldstone and Coldfire than the steel clan.

I cannot bring myself to believe this child is without a living soul.
It was just a feeling, but it was a feeling he didn't have about other robots. Occasionally it was a feeling he didn't have about living creatures, so perhaps it could be fostered, if not relied on.

She would have done based on Goliath’s assessment alone, but meeting him for herself only served to confirm the thoughts he’d shared with her.
We know that being a robot doesn’t mean you don’t have a soul.
