Unfortunately, he isn’t very cute. Or at least he has yet to do anything I would call “cute”. I suppose willingly helping people is cute of him. is crushing an enemy’s head with his bare hands to protect a human cute? Uh… I can’t really… get behind that.

“What...Are you really fine with this? Despite knowing I am a shark mermaid?”

She was utterly surprised to hear this. After all,most people would run away after knowing what she really was. Hence this arranged marriage orchestrated by her mother. After all,she had passed the 30 years, she was still single.

🤝- Does your muse forgive others easily?

{ 🌹 } ||      The sudden familiarity of a calm voice from behind her caused the young confectioner to turn swiftly ‘pon her heels, head snapping quickly to the side, hoping to catch a glimpse of her new visitor. Much to her pleasure, glacial gaze was cast upon an instantly recognisable face, half covered by his iconic hat. Tray of freshly baked cookies was almost dropped to the floor, surprise evident by the soft gasp that greeted his arrival.

          “Well, would you look at what the cat dragged in!” Tray was placed upon the counter and oven mitts thrown immediately to the side. “How are you? It’s been a long time, has it not? Luckily for you, I’ve just whipped up a batch of salted caramel cookies. Does that tickle your fancy?”

THIS IS SUPER DUPER OLD BUT I SAW IT LAYING AROUND IN MY ASK BOX AND HELL YEAH I SURE AM GONNA ANSWER IT

So, fun fact: as I stated way back in the day in this post (and reiterated in THIS POST), he’s made up of mostly pliable, flexible, and soft-to-the-(equallysoft)touch materials. Underneath the cushiony Flex Derma Chromium is a Generic Iosteel chassis which accurately mimics that of the human skeleton. The difference is that ball-joints such as knees, elbows, shoulders and so on are backed with shock-resistant caps that, should the joint be broken or bent the wrong way, can quickly pop it back in place or shut down the corresponding body-part’s functionality for mending. 

“Ok, but why the rivets and lines all over the surface?” you might ask. Well, aside from aesthetics… Those actually mark where those shock-resistant caps and linings are. They work as separators to not only prevent damage but bolster impact deflection. Think of it as kind of like the sides of a trampoline. Without those sides holding the fabric mesh taut, you won’t be getting any bounce out of that thing no matter how much you hop on it. If those rivets weren’t present, there might still be some shock resistance, but you won’t get the sproing out of it.

So, yeah. Bottom line: He be sproingy. And fun to poke.

Perhaps it can be deemed uncommon– bizzarre, even, for an android to be as willing as this one was to care for a total stranger– especially one that had attempted to shoot them.

But this one was, quite clearly, of a special breed. From the moment the bullet had ricocheted off the alien material of his body and injured his new companion to the point where he'd identified coffee as a harsh drink without its sweeteners, he proved time and time again that he was not a common sight in this world.

And perhaps as an added testament to this fact, he'd even scrutinized the innocent, clueless nature of the man under his care for not taking care to cool down the drink properly.

But now he had gone off, leaving the stranger to lay helpless in the bed while he hunted for some kind of sustenance for this man. He knew the guy wouldn't wander off, at the very least. He couldn't. And so there was no reason to stay with him the entire day.

He was more concerned about helping him to recover, after all.

It was well into the day that the android returned from…wherever he'd gone. With him he had brought rations acquired by rifling through neighboring abandoned buildings, as well as herbs and berries he'd found and identified as safe. These things were all dropped in a clutter on the counter by the humanoid's cot, and the android quickly went for the fireplace to revive its flames.

Not a word of greeting was spoken. But he did say this, with his back turned to the man, not even having to look a second time in order to make his assessment: 

「Did you manage to sleep as I'd suggested? You appear quite awake.」
