Ghost hovers close, watching every choice Tony makes, following close so he can understand what he needs to. So he can safeguard his Guardian when the fragments inevitably build up and connections go astray once more.
He's not surprised when the Light overrides some of those choices, but he does dart over the display to scan his Guardian directly for a moment or two. He can sense the Light trying to work with Tony's changes- and to him it looks as if it's stabilizing the Exo's circuits before the alarmed monitors of her autonomous functions can take issue with this tampering. Turning interrogating diagnostics aside, settling processors before things get out of control and potentially trigger a reboot.
(And her base systems announce, to whoever might have the tools to see: THEUT ASSESSMENT DIRECTIVES (SUBTLE; SELF-VERBOSITY: TACITA) COMPLETE. Status level: ELYSIAN. Cognitive stability: nominal. DEEP STONE CRITERION: NOT MET.)
"It's trying to protect her," Ghost says quietly. The little bot turns in the air to look at Tony. "You're right. The Light is a part of her. As one of its Guardians, she's bound to it. It won't just abandon her. I... it must be hard to understand, and it might take a while to explain. But it's on our side."
