"Well now. That's a first~! Looks like this lovely thing here ain't just for listening, hm?"

[He repeated the motion, much more in tune with what he could get out of it, now.]

"Seems I got myself a nice little reward system to thank my handsome technician for his incredible service…"

[He was laying it on thick himself, now… Giving compliments came easy to him, and he had always been keen on picking up how well the maintenance bot received praise.]

[He'd be lying if he said he hadn't dreamed of a moment like this, in recent days... Scenes like this, which he had only allowed himself in the quiet of night; at the time, the reality of them seemed so faraway - impossible, even! Even as they cuddled close, or hugged or teased one another... Even as he had to face himself his differently his relationship had developed compared to all those he had with others.>>]

[This was rather unexpected, indeed.]

[Manny isn't really used to being on the receiving end. Or any end, for that matter. The company didn't put this in as an intended feature in any regard; rather, a tuning error that had caused quite a bit of sensitivity. Before this had been discovered, MB was just a bit on the higher end of hearing sensitivity- Louder noises, much like that loud shrieky music his getaway driver enjoyed, caused a bit more discomfort than an average person would feel. Everything just seemed a bit more touchy. ]

[Manny had never patched this himself, as it came with added benefits; Its how he had heard those security bots coming around the corner well before he could see them.]

[...Never considered there would be any further "benefits." This was the first time he was figuring that out himself.]

[Those fans of his had audibly doubled their speed, the heat a bit suffocating under that puffy varsity jacket it kept on him at all times now. A bit embarrassed at his own profanity, MB seemed to of gotten conscious enough to try and keep himself a bit quieter. He was sooo cocky when he was the one in charge, parading all the repairs he did and basking in Blayd's enjoyment in them. He wasn't sure what to do with himself now that he's on the flip side.]
