"Hello, Zero."

"Hello, Steve. Have you had lunch?" Zero smiled.

The God of Technology grinned and explained that he was practising intermittent fasting. "It helps to keep the mind sharp," he explained and Zero nodded.

That was something the teen would never come to understand. Eating was the joy and privilege of the living. Fasting wasn't something Zero would ever willingly do. The notion itself was almost as crazy as wanting to willingly become the void.

Pushing that thought aside, Zero delved straight into business. "How's the progress of the chaos energy converter and testing device coming along? Merlin said there was a prototype?"

Steve smiled. "You're awfully eager today. Did something good happen?"

The teen grinned. "Not yet. Soon. I thought I'd drop by to see what's going on because it's going to be related to my personal assignment."
