He's definitely enjoying this lesson

She suddenly stood in a dark room, surrounded by machinery. Steel cables as thick as her arm dangled overhead, house-size computers lined the walls, blinking with millions of flashing lights, and thousands of broken televisions, ancient PCs, out-of-date game consoles, and VHS players lay in drifts and heaps throughout the room. Wires covered everything, writhing and slithering along the walls, over the mountains of forgotten technology, dropping in tangled clumps from the ceiling. A loud thrumming filled the area, making the floor vibrate.

"Lizzy."

The strangled whisper came from behind her.

She then sits down. "Ares," she outstretches her arms, "cuddle."

He went up to her, nudging her with his nose

She slowly turned towards the owner of the whisper, her eyes going over everything in the room. Where...was she?

"Yes! Good boy!" She grins and hugs him.

A small shape was dangling from the wires. They coiled around his arms, chest, and legs, holding him spread-eagled near the ceiling. Some of the wires were stabbing into him, plugged into his face, neck, and forehead like electrical outlets. He dangled weakly, blue eyes beseeching hers.

"Lizzy," Ethan whispered, as something huge and monstrous rose up behind him. "Save me."

He nickers happily

" Ethan! " She reached out to him.

"C'mon. I'll teach you more tommorow." She smiles, leading him back inside.

Ares followed

That's when everything just dissolved into her room in the Chillsorrow manor.
