[duh he like fits all the requirements especially the talking one

surely this won't backfire at any point in time like when SONiKA's trying to sleep after partying]

[iwoulddie]

[Nope certainly won't oh wait here he is]

Sonika? Sonika, are you awake? That's a silly question I suppose, we don't really sleep in the traditional sense, do we? In that case, ah, are you...conscious? Aware of your surroundings? At this point in time?

[damn]

> system on standby

[iwoulddie]

Oh. Well, ah, just in case you're even a little aware--I do believe there are some systems that register their surroundings even when idle--I would very much appreciate it if you could perhaps find the time to discuss things.

It isn't. Terribly important, do continue your rest and recharge, because that is quite important, but. You know. For future reference. Whenever you're "awake". Big-eyed and bushy-tailed, as it were. You know. Thank you for your non-waking time.

[She is certainly that kind of system - otherwise she couldn't have responded in the first place. It may have been a stock phrase, but point is, she can hear him.

It takes a moment, maybe as he's about to leave, for the rest of her to kick in.]

w8

im here

[she sits up a bit.]

[iwoulddie]

[He's got his back to her, but spins right around again once she speaks]

Ah, there you are! I didn't mean to disturb you while resting, but something had been nagging at my mind for quite some time now, coming up again and again despite any attempts to move towards more productive trains of thought, and I noticed you had finally returned home so I had been hoping I could possibly get your esteemed input on the matter and put my weary mind at ease once and for all.

[SONiKA watches him go on, and suddenly gets a bit nervous. What if he's talking about that? ... Well if he is, then maybe she'd better hear what he has to say first. It'll probably color her own opinion of the situation, but since she's indecisive as fuck, that's a good thing.]

ok. i will try 2 give u my input on the thing ... 4 wat its worth @ least.

[Sitting all the way up, she's made some room for him to sit with her if he wants.]

[iwoulddie]

[He does, actually, but seems a bit hesitant at first. Eventually, though, he sits, twisting his cord anxiously.]

Well, you see, this thought had entered my mind and seemed quite silly at first, as most sudden thoughts are, but it simply kept coming back and back and back. I had attempted to do some reading on the subject, you know, like the dedicated scholar I am, but every source I find seems to have something vastly different to say on the subject. I realize there most likely isn't some sort of clear-cut checklist, though that would be nice, I'm very accustomed to checklists. Clean and orderly, gets the job done in a timely manner with documentation already made to confirm the job has been done...

Oh, but I digress, don't I?

Let's see. Ah...I also realize it perhaps may be a touchy subject, but, is there any generally recommended route of action to take when the very real possibility comes forth that you may...hold affections for a particular individual?

[She smiles as she watches him. It's sweet, really.]

ah fuck, dont ask me 4 advice. i dont know shit. it is so hard being a robot thats in luv, thats the only thing i learned.

if ur ok with that tho ...

i prefer the direct approach

[pause.]

so y dont u try that on whoever it is u like

[iwoulddie]

But what if she doesn't feel the same way? That would put the both of us in an incredibly awkward position and I wouldn't want to do that to her, or, either of us really, and...

...

How...would you define "direct", exactly?

SORRY THIS IS SO LAAAATE BAWW

[cowardsoftware]

i mean

[she leans in a bit and smiles]

tell the girl wat u wanna do

WHO'S LATE NOW

[iwoulddie]

[He takes just a moment to think, his cheeks starting to color]

Ah, well...I suppose I would enjoy doing what I've observed as traditionally "romantic" behavior. Such as joining hands when walking, being in close physical proximity while sitting and sleeping, going out together on "dates" to movie theaters, restaurants, parks, zoos, ice rinks and other such places, either for no reason in particular or to celebrate important occasions like a partner's birthday, Valentine's day, or the anniversary of the agreed beginning of the monogamous relationship.

...And to provide emotional support for the partner in times of turmoil or happiness, but that behavior doesn't seem to be exclusive to romantic relationships. Regardless, I'd enjoy it very much.
