Eighth Spool of Thread-[Action/Voice]

[Again, Shiki's sitting on her designated soapbox outside of All Passions, just enjoying the sun with Mr. Mew in her lap. She's busy watching everybody walk by, recognizing some unfamiliar faces as new feathers]

So far we haven't had as many new feathers as last month. Is anybody keeping track of an average number at all? Either way, hey New Feathers! If you can't find your other clothes and you get tired of the white-prison-wear, drop by and we'll make you something new.

Speaking of...if anybody wants a "refund" from anything I probably talked you into during that last experiment, stop by too. Sorry about that.

[She leans forward a little, peering around the corner of the shop to watch more people walk by like she's expecting to see someone]

Hey, Minato! Did you find batteries yet?

...? [because crap I can't remember which of my kids do and don't know]

[NOT A PROBLEM.]

I'm a machine... those parts of my body are not built to look human.

[voice]

[so_shik]

You...what? Are you sure?

[voice]

[shieldinside.livejournal.com]

Yes.

[voice]

[so_shik]

But you LOOK like a girl.

[voice]

[shieldinside.livejournal.com]

I was built to look like one.

[voice]

[so_shik]

...are you sure you're a robot?

[voice]

[shieldinside.livejournal.com]

... is that bad?

[voice]

[so_shik]

No, oh no that's not what I meant! I just...you don't look like one. [of course Shiki's thinking huge hunks of metal, but still]

[voice]

[shieldinside.livejournal.com]

I was built in order to look like a female and have a female personality.

[voice]

[so_shik]

So the only think you're missing is organs and skin.

[voice]

[shieldinside.livejournal.com]

Yes.

[voice]

[so_shik]

Oh well, those parts are gross anyway.

[voice]

[shieldinside.livejournal.com]

...

[voice]

[so_shik]

You can still do everything a normal girl can do, you know.

[voice]

[shieldinside.livejournal.com]

There are things I can't do.

[voice]

[so_shik]

Like what?

[voice]

[shieldinside.livejournal.com]

...ahh...umm...

[voice]

[so_shik]

Um?

[voice]

[shieldinside.livejournal.com]

I was only built for combat.

[voice]

[so_shik]

So? You can change.

[voice]

[shieldinside.livejournal.com]

I can't change the way I was built. Meaning that certain things in relationships, I'm incapable of doing.

[voice]

[so_shik]

You mean sex. [here, meet my other character that's completely blunt.]

[voice]

[shieldinside.livejournal.com]

[...you can have a very embarrassed robot in return. 8)]

...yes.

[voice]

[so_shik]

What does that have to do with anything? Not all relationships need sex.
