People had noticed, not too long. They noticed the super diligent Supervisor Perlica, that always busy and swooshing down the Control Nexus, terminal at hands. They noticed Chen Qianyu, the usual upbeat Lung, skipping around the Dijiang with wide smile on her face. They noticed, too, the unintentional proximity of their respective bodies inside their boundaries every time they passed around the Dijiang.
The other Operators noticed it but they either pretend to not see it or just don't know about those two.
One time, those two were in close proximity, not touching, but their hands did brushed against each other. They talked to each other, mundane things, strictly professional in nature but still contained friendly imagery.
That was confusing but people just think of it as their dynamic.
When questioned about those two Operators, the Endministrator only tilted their head. Chin on hand, they shrugged after that. But, a sliver of knowing smile on their face.
"Don't worry about it," the Endministrator once said, "it is what it is."

Hands on the hips, tail coiling down on the Liberi's calf. Her horn sometimes scrapped the walls from how she tilted her head to followed the movement of the person in front of her. Perlica's hands were perched on her shoulder. Soft gloves scratched her nape nicely, inviting a shudder that Chen sure Perlica could feel it.
Perlica's feathers always ruffled when they make out. Her ears twitched at the intensity. Sometimes she likes when she intentionally touched Chen's horns, eliciting a nice little sound out of the Lung. Sometimes she squeezed down at the base of Chen's tail and the reaction of her hands gripping tighter on her hips made her groaned.
Not that hard and loud, though. That is strictly a room-zone-territory-terrain thing.
They moved away with an audible smack of their lips, saliva clinging onto their lips. Their breath mingled with one another. Their lips felt like still touching even though there's a whole finger width. Perlice swiped down on Chen's bottom lip.
"They talked,"
Chen hummed, she moved to nosed into Perlica's neck. She inhaled the Liberi's scent.
"Of course,"
She let out a puff of laugh. Perlica chuckled too, one hand stroking on Chen's nape. her lips settled on the Lung's ear, nipping at it.
"Can you imagine, the Supervisor Perlica is involved with one of her Operator?"
Perlica let out a chuckle, "When you put it like that,"
Chen giggled at that, hands moved up and down Perlica's side. Her lips moved to painted Perlica's neck with kisses, careful to not leave any marks.
"It's a good thing I am not doing favorite,"
"Nop-e," Chen said, hands sneaked inside Perlica's jacket, "you never do."
Perlica bited down on Chen's ear in warning as the Lung accidentally squeezed her ass. The hand shoot up to her lower back and her thumb started to rubbing the skin through the fabric.
"Strictly professional-"
"-Except for the bedroom, though."
That invited a pretty laugh out of the supervisor.
It's fair to say, only the walls of Dijiang truly know them.
