12.2 Placeholder Object?

Making our way back to the fountain with weird water physics, Guidance immediately took note of the anomaly as she shoved her way out to the front of the pack.

"What is this? I didn't program the water to flow like this!"

Sure enough, I sighed as the dev in her quickly came out to the forefront as she whipped out her keyboard and started typing. Not that I would even let her anymore.

"Shizu, can you-"

"Guidance, can you just leave it alone for now?"

The dev quickly shot me an agitated glance, her fingers hovering anxiously above her keyboard as she spoke. "How can I leave this alone? It's right in front of me!"

I winced at the borderline obsessive tone in her voice. I guess that was to be expected, seeing that this was her life's work. But... "You can't fix every little thing, Guidance. It'll take too much time."

"I know! That's why I should do it now while we still have time to spare!"
