Atom had attended meetings and answered the call when Donnie and Aira were taken, but otherwise he had kept to his room near the armor workshop at The Vault. He had thought of visiting Link while he was recovering from his leg injury, but talked himself out of it.
Put simply, he was ashamed that the others had seen him in such a furious mindset while fighting. Robot memory is generally picture perfect, and he had revisited the actions and expressions on everyone's faces after the battle with Gaurus. He wasn't confident in his interpretation though. There were too many factors at play and time since for the others to do reflecting too. Worry turned into dread, and dread turned into absence and delay.
He's surprised when he finds Link outside his door. "Mr. Link! Is there a meeting?" he asks. Atom glances over at his communication device in case he missed the signal of a message delivered.
