Outside (Jean)
-Jean has just had breakfast and is ready for another day (or at least she hopes she is. This is the Room, after all...).-
-...? Oh? Xenos is up ahead.-
-...Wonder what's up with the box...-
"Hey, Xenos..."
-She doesn't voice her curiosity, instead just resorting to her normal greeting.-
Well the bad news is that I haven't found you a rival yet, so the whole motivation thing for you is kind of behind schedule in terms of 'giving you competition'
The other bad news is also the good news.
The mimic bot has now got a personality program behind it. You essentially have a new sparring partner!

-OK, no competition yet... Jean's not sure whether she should be pleased or disappointed (As she simultaneously wants to improve, but also is rather nervous about the idea of it).-
-...And the Mimic-Bot has a personality now...?-
"R-Really...?"
-...It's an aggressive personality, isn't it? Jean's sort of nervous about this, but she'll just have to suck it up.-
Yep. Not to worry though, the memory of this guy's a genuine do-gooder.
He did get into a little fight with me... and he's responsible for my entire idea behind the belt and what-not.
I mean, I won't go into details of how we came to fight, but I didn't kill him so he's still back in my world, alive.
The mimic-bot has just adopted a copy of his personality, appearance, and fighting style from the memories I have of them.
So I imagine that the mimic-bot will try to be more- helpful, I guess. Like another mentor.

-Really?-
-Jean exhales out of relief. Man, that made her nervous for a second...-
-So the personality is based on someone Xenos knows then? And a pretty good guy at that, apparently...-
-Jean manages a small smile.-
"Cool."
-She is curious about the story behind Xenos and this guy though...-

Anyways, if you see a guy in glasses- that might be Mimic bot when in a passive mode. You'll know when he means to be fighting someone, because he'll transform. Into this-
-he taps the side of the box, and the front of it collapses, as a bunch of smoke erupts dramatically from the casket-
Paladin Herald- Legend.
-he quietly whispers- I may have overdone the fog machine, given the confines of the box...
-the fog dissipates, and reveals a warrior
◊ much more human than the previous Mimic Bot-
-after a moment of silence from it, it steps out-
It's nice meeting you again, or well. For the first time, Jean.

-Jean coughs a bit as the smoke escapes the box. Holy crud, how much smoke did Xenos need?!
-However, when the fog dissipates, Jean sees the awesome samurai armor-like form.-
"Whoa...!"
-She's extremely impressed and it's clear by looking at her. That samurai-like armor really won points with her.-
-...Oh! Wow, he really is acting like an actual guy, isn't he...?-
-It's astounding. Way better than the somewhat snarky demeanor the Mimic-Bot had last time...-
"Y-Yeah. Nice to meet you."
My copy's name is Minami Tomomi, but uh... well, I can't exactly go around calling myself that in case the real deal shows up.
So just Mimicky is fine. It's close to Minami, after all.
Yeah, see. It works out. -Xenos just leans into the box and turns off the fog machine- Sorry again about the overdose of smoke... I honestly didn't account for it being a contained box when I put a fog machine inside.

-'Mimicky' is an awkward name, but...-
"...Yeah, I can see your point with that. No telling if he'd show up..."
-Watch as fifty billion versions of the guy show up...-
"So... Mimicky it is."
-And then she looks over at Xenos with a slightly sheepish expression. He really didn't consider that, did he...?-
"This is, uh... something to keep in mind for the future then, I guess?"
You could probably come up with a different name, though.
Something that works better, because well. I'm not that good with names.
Mmm. Yeah, I'm not so good with the... theatrics.
I destroyed an asteroid while practising a "descent from orbit" dramatic entrance, and ever since then I just usually come down to a planet quietly, and just mingle for a bit.

-Well, a different name...-
"...How about just Mimic? It's pretty generic, but I think it sounds a bit cooler."
-Reminds her of one of those anime characters that have words for names that still somehow ending up making those names work.-
"Or I can call you something else..."
-Xenos destroyed an asteroid while attempting theatrics?-
"Wow, uh... Have you tried working on a smaller scale of theatrics?"
-Instead of doing something huge or grand he could focus on something a little smaller?-
-The fog machine might have been a good idea, but putting it in a box like that...-

"Well...it's not attacking anyone..."
"Yet."
"I say we give it a chance."
"It's a big, carnivorous monster! Who'd wanna give that a chance?"
-Banjo's look screams "I'm a fucking bear"-
