People are generally very generous when they think they owe you their life and once again, undying gratitude had rewarded the pair kindly. Straying from their awful birth-rite had always felt right to them, they'd have done it regardless of the risks or rewards, some Controllers are just built different.
"Look at this Fergi!!! They gave us so much fruit! Oh my goodness, are those cinnaberries?!" Mynx giggled excitedly, her head buried in the fridge, frantically looking through the bounty of free food donated to them. At first place, you might assume Mynx was an evil son-of-a-bitch, with her ruby skin, fiery amber locks and piercing eyes, her carapace on her snoutless head was built thickly with two large curving horns and a forward piece that looked like it was built for ramming, like much of her kind, she was gifted with a tremendously shapely figure that was bottom heavy in this instance, with chunky thighs and hips that often knocked against door frames or tables as she walked past due to their wide stance, she was certainly busty too but small compared to other Controllers in that department and in height too, only being 5,8ft. Whilst this is no small size in the roamer class and compared to most other creatures, her towering companion was a reminder that Mynx certainly was a little short for her species.
"Goodness Fergi, look at all this!" She emerged from the fridge with her arms full of all sorts of food. Whilst Mynx's focus was on the yummy sweet things, Fergi was checking out their new quarters, they'd been given an entire custom engineered wing of a Enigma Cruiser, built to house them and give them all the space, room and security they'd need to relax. They had their own bedroom, separate bathrooms, gym including pool and sauna, living room, kitchen and even had a few off the side of the ship to the stars surrounding them. The wing was full sealed and featured multiple liquid disposal methods and decontamination procedures, which might sound overkill or perhaps threatening but it was for them... it meant they could release themselves wherever and whenever they wanted in this place and it could be cleaned up easily. Enigma made it clear, they understood the condition and this was a home for them to do as they pleased in.
There was a buzz at the front door, which Mynx quickly scuttled over to see and allowed the person to enter, it was a two stage front door, one massive security bulkhead first, a short corridor and then a much more personable shadow glass front door. The bulkhead hissed and whirred alive, shifting multiple tons of reinforced metal in a smooth fashion to reveal a single female figure who quickly walked down the corridor and knocked on the front door. She was glad in the standard Enigma Inc. officer clothes which were a dark blue suit-like outfit, sleek and impressive looking.
The front door opened to reveal the cute Controller who was mid way munching a mouthful of juicy fruit.
"Mynx! How are you settling in?"
"Good thanksh! Sho kind of you to do thish." She smiled adorably, a little dribble of syrup appearing in the corner of her glossy lips as she chowed down on the berry.
"Hey, its no problem. Least we could do after you saved us. Corporate has told me to inform you that you're under no obligation to perform any services for us whilst you're here and the wing is yours to do with as you please. We... really can't thank you both enough. Honestly, if you need anything at all, just hit the button on the front panel and we'll bring you anything you need."
"Ish that a blank cheque for fruit?!" Mynx queried excitedly, hopping forward slightly at the thought.
"Yeah, it is." The officer warmly smiled back. She owed her life to Mynx, fruit was the least she could do.
They had saved the lives of multiple high-ranking officers and thousands of Enigma soldiers just over a week ago, intervening during a Rewritten assault and completely ceasing the assault, turning the tides and allowing Enigma personnel to escape as well as preventing important data from being stolen, data that would be allowed the Rewritten to wreck havoc in the next 10 systems. Whilst their intervention literally saved thousands, the lives saved by preventing the data from being stolen was in the millions, easily. The entire ship considered these girls heroes, they turned up randomly and threw themselves into the mix with no promise of payment or safety. The officers they saved pulled a lot of strings and arranged this as a way of saying thank you.
"You know, I think these are the nicest cinnaberries i've ever had! So juicy!"
"They were planet grown and flown in specially for you." The officer grinned from ear to ear. "I-it was my idea actually..."
"Planet grown?! OH my goodness! Fergi?! Did you hear that?! They got us planet grown produce!"
In the background, the much taller blue Controller briefly popped her head out and nodded, smiling back at both Mynx and the officer and then disappearing again.
"Is there anything else you need for now or should I leave you to it?" The officer nodded back to Fergi.
"I think we're good for now, thank you so much though!"
"No, thank you. On behalf of Enigma Incorporated, I thank you for your service to us and those your saved. Please, relax and enjoy yourselves! You will always have a place to call home now." And with that, she bid farewell and exited through the bulkhead, which Mynx closed via the control panel on the wall.
"Well that was very kind of them!" Mynx chirped happily, walking back into the main living room to see Fergi hiding around the side from the front door. "You still didn't want to speak to them, Fergs?"
Mynx's partner, Fergi, was a towering turquoise Controller with ram-like curling carapace horns either side of head, long beautiful pink jelly locks down her back and she was built like a pit-fighter, with strong muscles across her body. Her bust was more in-line with others of her kind and was practically exploding out of her tank top, each tit being as large as Mynx's entire torso. Despite her towering stature and significant personal strength, Fergi was not as outgoing as her partner...
"N-no. You do the talking better than me anyway..." Fergi nervously rubbed her arm and looked around the room. "Nicest digs we've ever had though!"
