I see. Is your boyfriend also an android?

[ Considering the text that Quentin opened with, it seems like an entirely reasonable question. ]

[volunteertomatoes]

No, he just likes to rile me up and he knows I like sci-fi.

I guess it's not scifi where you come from though

just sci

no fi

[ wow, he's doing such a good job at socializing right now]

[obeir]

[ The awkwardness is sort of weirdly charming, admittedly. ]

Fiction still exists. Just not where androids are concerned.

Was he suggesting a robot uprising, by chance?

[ Does he sound too hopeful? At least this is through text. Plausible deniability. ]

[volunteertomatoes]

is that something you as an android think about often?

[obeir]

This sounds like entrapment.

[volunteertomatoes]

I don't know enough about android legality to lead you down that path.

Wait actually do androids have their own lawyers? Are you common where you're from?

[obeir]

Relatively common. Legally we're property, so any legal representation would be on behalf of the owner.

Also it was an attempt at a joke. I suppose I need more practise.

Hypothetically, though, would you be interested in a video game about a robot uprising in which the robots are not the villains?

[ This is now an unofficial poll about his game idea that he isn't sure anyone else would play. ]

[volunteertomatoes]

that's terrible.

[ but honesly? On par with how shitty human beings are. ]

people in general tend to be the villians in most of my experience

it's never the talking horses

[obeir]

They do seem rather adept at it. [ Being terrible, acting villainous. Present company excluded, assuming Quentin is, in fact, human himself. ]

There's talking horses where you're from?
