oddie was keeping mostly to themselves, enjoying the invigoratingly warm coffee they’d ordered – who knew that food and drink could be so enjoyable! but, that would explain why humans loved them so much. they were mostly people watching when they noticed someone wince in pain, or what they suspected was pain. and, though it wasn’t any of their business, they could help but reach out in case it was something they could help with. they mentally prepared themselves for rejection regardless. “um, excuse me,” they said softly, clearing their throat slightly. words were so strange to use when they weren’t the ones they were pre-programmed to use. “are you alright? you seem a bit uncomfortable. if you’re hurt, i could look over the issue if you’d like. i would like to think i’m quite good at dealing with such issues,” they offered, gently eager. @scatteredstart
