Halfway through the core transfer, an alarm sounded and Wheatley, the single blue iris fading as the body itself twitched, assured Chelldon with half of his core-speakers and half his mouth that it was fine, not to worry, but perhaps he better hide just in case.
Because one never knew what was happening and he had been shut out from the system. Likely, that wasn't meant to have happened. Oversight and all. Happened all the time. Especially with Wheatley. It never occurred to him that anyone was doing it one purpose.
The klaxon stopped almost ten minutes later, fading out, and by that time, Wheatley sat upright and fixed the glasses to be straight across his nose and ears.
Perfect! So much better!
He beamed. And realized Chelldon was missing. Well. Hiding. But as he hadn't watched where the human went, he had no idea where he'd gotten to!
